J uly 22, 2012

Dear Commissioners,

Thank you for agreeing to hold hearings on the Proposed Wine Country Community Plan in Temecula
on Wednesday J uly 25, 2012. Although I may not be able to attend, I appreciate the effort being
made to make participation in the process available to more people in the area of concern than might
otherwise be the case if the meetings were held in Riverside.

I have two overriding concerns with the plan as proposed and with the mitigation suggested.

First is the issue of noise from wineries holding special events. These events very often have very
loud amplified music in outdoor facilities. It has already become difficult to enjoy an evening outside
during the summer months due to music coming from these events. The problem is that very often
music from two or more of these events is easily heard from our back yard. This dissonant sound is
very irritating and prevents us from enjoying our property. This will only increase in severity as the
number of wineries increases especially since many of the conditions of approval allow for special
events up to 200 or more times per year. Simple math will conclude that that means every weekend
night all year long will be filled with music and other loud noise. I doubt very much that this is the
rural ambiance that Supervisor Stone continues to tout whenever he is asked about the plan.
With this in mind I have three suggestions to mitigate this problem, in order of my preference:
9:07 AM7/23/2012 9:07 AM
2
1-Do not allow any outdoor amplified music.
2-Build into the plan some music free weekends. Give us 25 or so weekends with no outdoor
amplified music allowed.
3-Give code enforcement the appropriate police power, training and backing and make them
accountable to all citizens.

The second concern I have is with traffic safety on De Portola road. It is my understanding that there
are no plans to make needed improvements to this highway for the next 5-10 years. This is simply
unacceptable. With the projected increase of 44, 000 additional tourists per year in the area this will
create some severe public safety hazards for this road. The road currently floods almost every winter,
there are no shoulders, there are no left hand turn lanes and there are no bicycle lanes for the
frequent users of this road. There is also visible wear and cracking to the existing surface. With
increased traffic each weekend the deterioration of the road and hazards to cyclists and other
motorists and no plans for improvements is simply an unconscionable neglect of public safety. The
plan must include improvements to De Portola road sooner rather than later.

I think the overall plan has some merits, but I want to remind you that I live here every day. Most of
the visitors and many of the winery owners do not live here and will not be affected. Please consider
the residents when making final recommendations.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Syms Luna:

I own the above referenced parcels (listed by APN) located at the north easterly corner of State Route 79 South
and Anza - the main backbone roads leading into Wine Country.

The parcels are currently designated Tourist Commercial and have been since the Country adopted the General
Plan in 2003. For this reason I invested hundreds of thousands of dollars assembling the parcels and pursuing
plans to develop a full service hotel with restaurants and boutiques at this location.
8:39 AM7/23/2012 8:39 AM

Additionally, I have invested tens of thousands of dollars in research and design. When I approached the
County approximately one year ago, I was advised by staff that I could not initiate the appropriate change of
zone until after the Wine Country Community Plan (GPA 1077) was completed. I patiently waited until the plan
was brought forward.

Now, in reviewing the new plan, I became concerned that the plan as currently proposed may not adequately
take into account my project. My project is, however, generally consistent with the principle concepts of the
overarching plan. My project would assist the County in achieving their goals and help stimulate the local
economy by investing millions of dollars and creating hundreds of jobs both short term construction and
permanent jobs. The project is strategically located near the entrance of Wine Country and at the apex of the
main backbone roads into Wine Country.

Therefore, I respectfully request the designation of Tourist Commercial remain on my property and any
restrictions and/or prohibitions that might otherwise affect my ability to develop my project as proposed be
removed.

Sincerely,
Faddoul Baida

EIR Consultant: RBF Consulting

Dear Ms. Mehta-Cooper:

We appreciate all the help you have provided us in the past. We have reviewed the documents relating to this proposed
project, and must admit to having some difficulty in understanding all the implications for our property at 35600 Monte
Verde Road, Temecula. We read that if we fail to present possible objections at the time of the hearing, we will lose our
opportunity to contest any possible outcome; and since we're unclear on what the implications might be and we are not
able to attend the hearing, we wish to preserve all of our rights. Our specific concerns are on the restrictions of use that
might apply to our property, and the permission for new uses on adjacent property. We are concerned, specifically, that
the proposed revisions might
1) prevent us from building a small guest house or sheds for agricultural purposes
2) require us to widen our driveway
3) negatively impact our continued use of well water
4) limit the number of guests we may invite to our property for special occasions
5) omit citrus and other crops except vineyards as a potential agricultural use of our land
6) enable commercial development on the land immediately adjacent to ours (neighboring, that borders 79) that would in
some way damage the value of our property by creating a nuisance in increased traffic, pollution, noise, artificial lights or
disadvantaging our view.
We make formal objection to the proposed revisions to the extent that they would have any of the foregoing effects, or
otherwise further restrict the use of our property. If you have any assurances you can give us on these points, we'd be
12:50 PM7/23/2012 12:50 PM
2
delighted to hear from you. Our basis for objecting to any such effects is the inadequacy of the EIR, the violation of
California's anti-takings law, and the relevant prohibitions of the state and federal constitution.
It is our sincere hope that the changes can be worked out without having these consequences, in which case, we would
be hopeful of being able to support the proposal with enthusiasm.
Thank you,
Tom and Susanne Campbell

I spoke with Mitra regarding the zoning on 966380016. This is a lot for sale that we are buying. I am an
equestrian and want to make sure it gets in the correct zoning, Temecula Winery Equestrian. I know that the
parcels next to the one we are buying are planned to change to Equestrian. The owner selling the property did
not request equestrian. I will be at the planning hearing at Temecula City Hall, July 25. Please let me know if I
need to do anything else to get this change before it goes into effect in October!

Thanks!

Kathy Spano

Freeways/Express Ways: Butterfield Stage Rd. Plans approved in


1988-89 to become 6 Lanes Eventually

Just for the record: According to the Final EIR for Butterfield
Stage Ranch, Specific Plan #226, prepared March 1988 by RANPAC
Engineering Corp, Temecula, Butterfield Stage Road between 79S
and Pauba was designated a Artierial Highway (6 lanes) with a 110
foot right of way as shown on the circulation element map of the
General Plan.

Roadway Design: Intensive urban uses shall be served by streets
and highways capable of handling high volumes of commuter and
truck traffic.

Road right of way and dedication: Necessary rights of way
dedications shall be made by developers as part of the land division
and review process.

It is still contend that BSR is a sleeping dog. Because of the rukus
caused in 2003 of approved 2000-2002 RCIP General Plan and
Southwest Master Plan transportation Corridors by Cal Trans
approved Butterfield Stage Rd. to be the to start with four lane
expressway (Eastern Bypass) and changed in 2003-2004 by Robin
Lowe and Ron Roberts with the assistance of Stephen Brown City of
Temecula Planner submitting for the Council Members to abort the
newly designed and approved $32,000,000.00 million new RCIP
Corridor Plans designed and mapped by Parsons Mapping, which was
available on CD-ROM completed in finalized design. In less than 60
days Roberts and Lowe changed the approved finalized new corridor
roads/future freeways which had been a four year process, which is
documented in the Executive Committee Minutes of Transportation.
,
The City of Temecula and the County of Riverside had to leave
Butterfield Stage Road alone for a while and work on other issues
surrounding the area to fit in the final puzzle pieces. But, all the
activity around it (wine country expansion); 79S new exchange and
so on have a connection somehow to BSR and at some point in time it
will need to be expanded to 6 lanes; there is not enough room now to
do it. We walked it off and measured the existing road. Houses will
need to be taken by emanate domain.

The facts might not mean anything now, but keep it in the back of
your mind as for what is going on elsewhere.

BSR is still part of the puzzle.

In 2005 a METRO PRESERVE STATUS for 50 years with a every
5 year review periods were put in place on Anza Rd. of Temecula
Wine Country by the Department of Transportation (Either by CAL
Trans and/or by The County of Riverside Dept. of Transportation,
OR POSSIBLY BY BOTH.

In 2002 Bill Hughes of the City of Temecula stated at the
Falkner Winery Wine Country Update that when ANZA RD. is
completed out in 40 years, it will be 16 lanes WIDE.

The EIR Transportation negative impacts to all agriculture and
humans, is found in the City of Temecula Planners Offices within a
CD-ROM which is kept on a staffs desk, not in a binder. It was
sent by the County of Riverside Staff as Letter No. 10 included in
the 2005 City of Temecula Financial Report for 20 Year Growth.
It states: That along the Anza Rd. Eastern Bypass there will occur
Level 6 Hot Spot Carbon Monoxide Cacogenic Soot Contamination in
all of the low laying valleys along the Eastern Bypass with the
introduction of 77,000 cars per day. (This has been upgraded to
85,000 in 2012). It will harm the health of children and seniors
breathing and any one with breathing illnesses.)

THESE statements were NEVER PRESENTED TO THE
COMMUNITY OR IN WRITING WITHIN THIS 2012 RCIP
GENERAL PLAN NOR IN THE SOUTHWEST MASTER PLAN,
WHICH ALSO INCLUDES THE SPECIFIC AGENDA ITEM, 1076,
WHICH CONFUSES THE ISSUES OF now calling the Wine Country
as 11.85 square miles, and also calling it the Wine Country Plan. This
information was given to Margaret Rich, who did not show the
Parsons mapping, documentation, and 2007 Stakeholders one year of
meetings, which Dan Stephenson, Naggar, Commercho, and others
were hand picked/appointed by Jeff Stone, Supervisor.

Jeff Stone violated the sealed 2003-2004 RCIP General Plan and
Southwest Master Plan of his District 3, by placing in motion I
believe the illegal process of changing the 9,000 families rural
single residences and parcels to agriculturaland now changed their
deeded descriptions of their paid for lands and zoning FOR FUTURE
COMMERICAL TAKE OVER AND USAGE OF EITHER UNITED 21,
AND/OR RDA. BY BRINGING IN THE COSTS OF
TRAILS/SEWERS/ INTO THIS 2012 EIR, electrical corridors may
now share the trails for walking and horseswhich does not mix as
was done in LA, Anaheim and Orange County I believe.

And, the omission of the impact of the Metro Preserve being
withheld from the residents of more than 9,000 presently, may be a
felony CA PENAL Code 115.
Also, County of Riverside have omitted the proven Napa Valley
recycled 1% Variable Formula that mandates abundance of northern
CA waters to blend with Colorado water.

I request that the PDF File of 51 Pages also be placed into public
record. I am only a private citizen, without attorney assistance. I
believe my statements to be true.

In case you have not yet heard, I disagree with the 3500 gallon, must produce, section of the plan. As the state
and feds only require the capacity to produce 3500 gallons, the county nor the wine growers can legally impose
a higher standard. It is up to each winery depending on its own plan, size, economic condition, and
circumstances to determine how much wine it will produce. If this is passed there will be legal consequences. I
also disagree with the 10% planting of olives. This makes sense ONLY if we are talking of a new venture which
has unplantable area. What about existing 35 year old trees, no matter what type. The 10% idea should be
applied across the board. If you need clarification, Please call me at the number below.

I am a wine tasting visitor (we usually bring a lite lunch and hang out all day sampling the wines, then bringing
our favorites home) and just learned that there are some equestrian trails - I love that the plan is to expand them!
My friends and I would absolutely LOVE to do wine tours on our horses. Please include a staging area large
enough for folks with big trailers (3h or larger) to turn around and park in your plans so those of us who don't
live at the trail head and only have one trailer (that isn't a small one) can trailer in.
Thank you SO much - this is fabulous news! Submitted By: Andrea Duncan

Subject: Temecula needs to remain horse friendly
To All that this will Concern:

Please keep Temecula and the valley horse friendly. We do not want the area to be known as "just another
concrete jungle". In order for an area to thrive, it needs to appeal to a variety of interests. Look at Norco; a very
horse friendly town. The people there are willing to live in the extreme heat and at times smog because of this
equine acceptance. We horse families have enormous financial commitments to horse/animal/live
stock businesses. This rural atmosphere among the wineries and other businesses is what makes us special.
Don't go the way of LA or other horrible places.

It's also important for our kids to be brought up in a rural and agrigulture area. I speak from experience being
heavily involved in the Fallbrook FFA and working with kids at the fair. Many grads have chosen to pursue
higher education in agriculture as a result of their experiences. Support the out of doors in every way possible.
In my travels across the nation and world, I see how people love and support the communities in which they
live when they are given these lifestyles.

Thank you,

Subject: Equestrian Trails and the Community Plan
To the planning commissioners,

I am a horse owner/lover/rider in the Temecula Wine country, and I am writing to you with regard to the
proposed equestrian trails and the community plan . A network of trails make the wine country more attractive
and add to the peaceful, country image of Temecula. Equestrians and tourists will see Temecula as uniquely
pastoral, unlike any other wine country they've visited around the world. As a matter of experience, when I ride
through wine country and even visit wineries on horseback, there is generally a fascination and awe when
visitors see horses. They want pictures to capture this memory of their Temecula Wine Country experience.
A connected network of trails is critical to keep horses exercised and of sound mind. Small segments of
trails without a thoroughfare are neither useful, nor are they particularly fun to ride.
The trails are disappearing at an alarming rate because the General Plan did not protect them all with legal
easements held by the County. We need the County to protect this asset to Temecula's Wine Country and to
reclaim the easements. By doing so, Temecula's equestrian community and tourism will flourish with a well-
connected network of trails benefiting wineries, keeping equestrians safe and providing a unique and
stimulating atmosphere for Temecula.
Horse owners and lovers are a very significant portion of the Temecula population, and we contribute
economically to the community in many ways. A large number of equestrians moved to Temecula Valley
precisely because it is a horse friendly community and has the promise of equestrian trails. That is the reason I
moved my family to Temecula's Wine Country. It is an amazingly beautiful area that is has a country feel with
the excitement of business and entertainment by the wineries. The Community Plan allows 5 horses per acre in
the Equestrian and Residential zones, but only 2 horse per acre in the Winery zone. Horses and vineyards are
compatible agricultural uses for land, so it is difficult to understand the rationale for this variance. In addition,
the Plan currently has many specifics about horse keeping that have no real basis, such as requiring 20 covered
stalls for a 10 acre operation. Most equestrians that I know treat their horses extraordinarily well without any
need for regulations from the general plan which is not based on animal husbandry. Ordinances that ensure
animal health and welfare already exist.
Horses are so much a part of the history of the Temecula area and so much a reason for Temecula's current
popularity as a destination site, perhaps better nomenclature for the area is "Wine and Horse Country". I believe
that the signage and designs for the Equestrian Zone should reflect this. There are fantastic equestrian centers in
Temecula, and coupling businesses with them would promote both causes and foster more gestures of good will
and respect between the wineries and the equestrian community. The Valle de Los Caballos (Valley of the
Horses) has long been a separate area with a distinct land use plan. I believe it should be preserved as the heart
of the Equestrian Zone.
Thank you for taking the time to thoughtfully consider Temecula Wine and Horse Country's future, and
thank you in advance for ensuring that Temecula's equestrian community thrives with a vibrant and connected
network of trails and continues to add to the ambiance of Temecula!

Respectfully,



Terin Harris

Subject: Comments on Wine Country Trails

These are minor changes that were incorrectly identified on the current draft of the trails map. I
have marked the items in question on the attached portion of the map so you can easily find the
areas Im addressing:

1. Trail from Berenda Road that links to the horse crossing on Rancho California Road
these lines were drawn in error and the correct route is shown with dotted/circled lines.
Furthermore, this should be colored PINK as a Regional Open Space Trail. This is
marked as item 1 on the attachment.

2. Trail that parallels Los Nogales Road The Trails Sub-Committee of the Advisory
Council had agreed that this trail should be along the south boundaries of the properties
along Los Nogales Road. But wed like to be sure this is drawn clearly north of the creek
that runs alongside Los Nogales Road, since the creek washes out frequently. This
clarification will prevent unnecessary maintenance costs. This is presently a Regional
Open Space Trail. This is also marked on the attachment as item 2.

3. Trail along De Portola Road going East from Los Alamitos Drive The purple line
designating the Regional Trail needs to continue all the way to the boundary of the
proposed Wine Country, as the bike trail does. And then, it needs to connect over to the
East Benton Road trail, to complete that equestrian loop. Somehow it just dropped off
arbitrarily.

4. All wine country trails (including local trails) need to be held by the County for
equestrian use. Otherwise they will not exist in years to come. Such a loss has happened
in the mapping effort of the 1980s. Lets not repeat that mistake.

5. Roundabout at Rancho California Road and Anza Road The combination trails going
into this roundabout will be used by hikers/joggers/cyclists as well as equestrians. But
because of the current landscaping at the roundabout, pedestrians/hikers/cyclists and even
horses cannot be seen by cars entering the roundabout, creating an extremely dangerous
situation. Correction needs to take place to eliminate the safety hazard.

We are residents of Temecula, and we support enactment of the Trail Map along with its future implementation.
We urge the County to put a process in place for adoption of the easements in order to make the trails a reality.
We believe there are many beneficial aspects for equestrians, as well as equestrian businesses, in the proposed
Wine County Community Plan. It would be a great benefit to the equestrian community to have access to a
complete and connected trail system which existence will be guaranteed by a County plan with the appropriate
easements. The equestrian community is a significant portion of Temecula's population with an impact on the
economy of the community. To provide a benefit to this portion of the community can only benefit the entire
community including the wineries and a considerable portion of other local businesses.

Thank you for your consideration,

Subject: So Cal Wine Country Trail Plan
Dear Mitra Mehta-Cooper,

I would very much like to make my voice heard regarding the upcoming planning commission meeting regarding the Trails
and the Community Plan. I reside in Norco, CA and belong to Rubidoux Riding Club. Our club recently hosted a wine ride
on May 5, 2012. We were able to stage from Keyways as well as spend the night on their property. RRC anticipates
holding further club rides in the future. It took several pre-rides and the help from many local equestrians to determine the
best route. I found it difficult to navigate the area without a trail mapping system and a patchwork of trails. It is imperative
that horse trails and crossings be safe from fast moving vehicles.

I believe that Temecula Wine country is the ideal location to establish a network of horse trails which will be utilized by
locals horse owners, horse groups and winery patrons. Horses are an intregal part of the history of the area and so much
a reason for its current popularity as a destination site. Equestrians support large property minimums, to keep the "open",
"rural" feel of the area. Equestrians are a significant portion of the population who continue to invest in their infrasturctures
which further enhance the beauty and economic viability of the area. Equestrians contribute economically to the
community in many ways, including supporting local businesses and visting wineries. Equestrians have local businesses
and/or commerical operations. Equestrians are concerned and involved citizens, and many are community leaders
themselves.

I urge the County to step up and take the easements in order to have a complete and connected trail system. I also urge
that the County develop the area into a uniquely pastoral wine country which can only lead to tourism destination.

Hi Lorraine,

I trust you received my yahoo emails letting you know I will not be able to attend the meeting
so please use this statement. Please forward what you think is appropriate to Mrs. Mitra
Mehta-Cooper.


I have 3 interests in the Wine Country Trail s network meeting. I work, live and ride my horse
in the Temecula Wine country and enjoy the lifestyle the community is all about. I live in
Country Road Estates on 5 acres and most of my neighbors have horses on their property and
have established trail system throughout our community. I am also a co-founder and proud
member of the Temecula EqWine riders established in the wine country of Temecula.

I also work as a manager in a winery and have been published in a book Horses in Wine Country
in which I sell very successfully in the gift shop I manage (sold close to 100 books so far and
the interest is climbing). I find the guests that come into wine country love the ambiance of
horses in wine country and what the equestrian lifestyle lends to wine country. Many times I
have ridden to the wineries (that have hitching posts) and enjoy their food and wine. The guest
reaction is memorable to both me and them as I ride away.

Please continue the efforts of maintaining and establishing a trail system throughout wine
country to be enjoyed for generations to come!

Cheers and good luck!

To: Riverside County Planning Commissioners

From: Lorraine Harrington, Temecula

Subject: Comments on Proposed Wine Country Community Plan


Commissioners,

I am a property owner (35820 Pauba Road, Temecula), and equestrian who has been deeply
involved in the development of the proposed Wine Country Community Plan and the associated
Trails Map. I urge you to approve both, with the following changes noted below.

First, I believe the plan will preserve, and indeed enhance the Wine Country as a unique
equestrian-oriented area , primarily by legitimizing the current commercial equestrian operations,
preserving large-scale properties throughout the area but particularly in the Valle de Los
Caballos (VDC), and by finally making the trails a connected and legally supported network.

Historically and currently, horses and horse-related businesses have been a major element
of the community that we feel needs to be preserved
The Community Plan can not only legitimize the long-standing equine businesses but
preserve a locale in Southwest Riverside County that promotes less dense development, a
rural, semi-rural, or open atmosphere that encourages horse-related activities,
while providing an appropriate balance of vineyards, a reasonable number of small
wineries. The equestrian community has not opposed the concept of Wine Country
growth; instead, we have labored within the Advisory Council to encourage growth in
the 3-zone concept; to temper the impact of over-commercialization in the Valley of the
Horses ; to integrate horses into the Residential and Winery zones in the appropriate
balance.
A stable, attractive, and well-planned Equestrian Zone will add to the overall ambiance of
the expanded Wine Country as a tourist destination, but will also attract new investment
by equestrian businesses and landowners as alternative locations fail to provide zoning
protection for horse-related activities. In other words, horsemen who have to move away
from dense development will find a vibrant community for relocation here in Wine and
Horse Country.

Trails are a critical component of the Community Plan for resident equestrians. In working with
County Parks and the Community Plan Advisory Council, we have sought to:

Redo the Countys Trails Map to revise the current patchwork of trails to nowhere and
create a network of connected trails that enable riders not only to exercise their horses on
a daily basis but to access the beautiful scenery, the wineries and the surrounding lakes
(Vail, Skinner, and Diamond Valley).

The trails have been mapped with 4 underlying principles:
1. Safety the goal is therefore to get trails OFF road shoulders and onto the
back edge of property lines.
2. Connectivity most trails are designed as loops with connecting arteries,
and with spurs out to the lakes. The entire system will also link to the City
of Temeculas trail map
3. Accessibility we have incorporated some staging areas for access to the
trail system
4. Flexible design standards - the network is not a homogenous set of
lookalike trails (some segments are groomed, wide, multi-use trails while
others are undisturbed nature paths).

The map, when approved, still requires proper execution. I strongly believe that we will not be
able to preserve the trails unless the County steps up to accept the easements for all of them.
Recognizing that there will still be some movement in the mapped lines as discussions with
landowners progress, it will be critical for the County to begin accepting easements as soon as
possible to preserve the integrity of the trail network. We do NOT want a repeat of the 1980s
mapping effort when many easements were offered but not accepted, leaving us with the current
patchwork of unrideable trails.

Other critical concerns about the current version of the Community Plan are as follows:
While I and my fellow equestrian members of the Advisory Council applaud County
Staff on creating a document that captures most of what the Advisory Council and
members of the community suggested, we see several areas that we believe should be
changed before approval, including:
Number of allowable animals per acre in Equestrian Zone - The Advisory Council
had agreed on 5 per acre. The latest draft of the plan complicates this by stating that
Two such animals may be kept on each 20,000 sq feet up to one acre and two such
animals for each additional acre. The number of such animals is not to exceed fine
per gross acre We should omit the unnecessary complicating language.
Sewers The community strongly opposes bringing sewer trunk lines down De
Portola Road. In previous meetings of the Board of Supervisors (and thus on
videotape) as well as in countless public outreach meetings in the Wine Country,
Supervisor Stone has stated repeatedly that sewers would not be allowed without a
vote of the community and at very least would be on an opt in basis. However, the
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for this plan concludes that sewers will be
required by each new project, not excluding the Equestrian Zone. We understand the
limitations of the current conditions, but also understand that we may therefore need
to curtail growth or manage it to what our conditions can handle without sewers in
Valle de Los Caballos.
Micromanagement of design standards for equestrian establishments - We find the
current draft way too detailed on most points related to sound horsekeeping practices.
For example, requiring 20 covered stalls on a 10 acre property, with no regard for
how many horses reside there, seems nonsensical. Likewise, mandating the size of
stalls and weather shelters reflects a lack of knowledge of how operations work. We
have asked for this section to be significantly simplified numerous times, and have
never gotten an explanation for why it has not been changed. We believe it would be
inappropriate in most instances and unenforceable anyway. Besides, we already have
ordnances in place about animal welfare, dust control, etc.
Moratorium on new projects after approval The final paragraph of the Plan
stipulates that it will go into effect 30 days after approval. We want to make sure that
a rush of non-conforming projects are not allowed to begin the permitting process
during this 30 day period. Please insert wording to this effect.
Zoning of area across 79South This is currently a mixed use area, and what we
have heard is a strong voice for designating at least a section of it as equestrian, but
certainly not putting it all into the Winery Zone. Most likely a subdivision of all 3
zones might work best. There are residents there working on a cohesive suggestion
Street name changes While we recognize that there is nothing written in the Plan
itself that proposed changes to De Portola, Anza, Rancho California Road and other
streets, we also know that in conjunction with the growth plan, a movement outside
the Advisory Council has been ongoing to change street names. The residents, and
particularly business owners along De Portola strongly oppose this notion. Since
several of them are internationally and nationally recognized businesses (currently
with greater marketing reach than any of the wineries), the disruption to their
businesses would be detrimental.
Several individual landowners on the outer edges of the Equestrian Zone map have
requested to opt out of that zone, which will leave the equestrian area with the
potential for denser commercial development along the edges. We want to be
watchful of this, and thus careful to not allow Hotels within the Equestrian Zone and
to limit Special Event Facilities to parcels of 100 acres or more (which is what is
written in the current draft). This is in the spirit of preserving a quieter, less traffic-
or noise-congested, open and horse-friendly area.
* * *

Thank you for the opportunity to offer these comments. I hope we are able to refine the Wine
Country Community Plan toward an even better blueprint for the future of this wonderful region.

Ms. Mehta-Cooper,

I have attended a number of meetings over the past few years. First, may I say thank you for all of the time and
effort you have put into the Temecula wine and horse country development in general. More specifically, thank
you for your efforts in helping us acquire safe places to ride our horses. I have been very impressed with your
obvious abilities and skills.

I cannot tell you how nice it is to ride from winery to winery, crossing streets that have been marked with
appropriate signage. I have people visit routinely from out of town to ride, who just marvel at the
advancements that have been made in our horse community here in the Temecula Wine Country. Their dream
would be to leave the city and live in such a place some day. I actually think now it could more appropriately
be named the Temecula Wine and Horse Country.

I was very seriously considering selling my property in Wine Country last year and moving to Arizona. I
intended to move to a place where riding would be better and easier to ride for a distance. When it appeared that
we would finally have connecting trails with legal easements, which would allow us to ride from our homes,
throughout the Wine Country, I decided to stay. My choice to stay was made because riding is something that
is very important to me and most of my friends. I also stayed because I thought property values would surely
improve, even in this difficult economy, because of the ongoing projections for trail easements.

I truly feel that our community is special both because of the equine involvement and because of the wineries.
It is a unique blend that somehow is working very well. I would respectfully request that you and the Planning
Commissioners continue to work toward acquiring trail easements, in an attempt to connect the trails throughout
our community.

I vehemently oppose any type of development that will require heavy usage of water and sewage disposal. That
certainly is not part of the dream for this beautiful Temecula Wine Country we call home.

Respectfully submitted,

Re: Chavez Property - APN: 927590002 (9.1 Acres) and 927590001 (16.34 Acres)
Dear Mitra:
I represent Dale Chavez, who ownsthe above referenced property(Property). In reviewing
the Proposed Wine Country 20/20 Boundary Map, we discovered that the above referenced
properties reside within both the Equestrian District (927590002) and the Winery District
(927590001). See Map below.
Proposed Change
Obviously having the property zone in two separate districts would create difficulties down the
road if the property were to be developed as a winery.
My client requests the County include the 002 (9.1 Acres) within the Winery District by
adjusting the boundary map as reflected by the green lines. Thus, both the 001 and 002
properties would be within the proposed winery zone.

Re: Zoning Proposal for wine country
Pleaseconsider adjustingthe boundaries on the north east side of wine countryin the
proposed re-zoning map. The current proposed boundaries fromrevision 4, dated October
4
th
, 2010, show the corner of East BentonRoad and Bella Vista Rd, all the wayback to
the corner of, East Benton and Tucalota Hills Rd, now in hospitality. I am asking the
committee to please return the zoning of this area, back to the May 10
th
, 2010, revision 3,
for the following reasons:
First; 90%of the parcels on East Benton Road, from Bella Vista road to Tucalota Hills
Road, including our street, Calle J ojoba, are 5-acre parcels, with residents alreadyliving
onthe properties. There is approximately 1 home for sale now, and there is no area for
wineries or vine urns or any type of business in thisarea.
Next, there is a rock quarryowned by theCounty of Riverside located on East Benton
road, nearest and visible fromCalle J ojoba road. It is approximately 11 acres big, and is
used to get granite for roads in Riverside. It uses dynamiteto blow up rock for the
granite. Kelley Donovan, Riverside Road Supervisor, who runs all the roadrepairs, has
said he hasno idea how long this rock quarrywill be there or how much blasting there
will be in the future. I have personallyseen them use 500 AND700 lbs, of dynamite,
which has sent rock blastsand smoke 1000 feet wide and500 feet high andtremors
throughout the area. It looks like a bomb going off and sends tremendous clouds of thick
dark grey dust blowing towards Calle J ojoba Road. If they are not blowing up with
dynamite, they are operating a lot of heavy equipment, and there is a lot of large truck
traffic going in and out. It is loud, disturbing, and very dirty. The question is, why
would anyone want to put a commercial business, like a winery or hotel in this area?
They absolutely wouldnt. Therefore, I ask you to pleasechange thisareasboundaries to
equestrian, in the proposed new zoning districts, which would rezone our street on
Calle J ojoba to equestrian. This would mean the original boundariesfor hospitality,
would begin west of Belle Vista and East Bentonand down South. Maps are included.
This area has many small horse ranches already. It is an equestrian part of Temecula, and
it should be retained as such. Especially given the fact that the dirty, dynamite blasting,
rock quarry is here.
The proposed rezoning for our area ashospitality, and the subsequent proposed
restrictions that will be placed on our properties, will absolutely hurt our property value.
We have done numerous equestrian improvements to our property to build its value.
When we sell and attempt to reap this equity, wewill have to disclose to any potential
Group C-Exhibit A
buyers that the zoning has changed, and they cannot have as many horses or do what they
had hoped with the horses and the improvements. The reason I moved to east wine
country is for the equestrian draw. Our property has beautiful horse improvements.
There are lovely horse ranches in the area. We moved here for the rural freedom to have
and enjoy our horses, and this will all change with thefuture plansof the rezoning. We
also moved for the reason of our son who has Cerebral Palsy for Physical development to
make him stronger using this horse ranch, helping my son and others who have special
needs. Are goal was to Start a non-profit organization in the future for special needs
children for development over come there disabilities. With this plan of Hospitality
zoning will NOT allow for this to happen. It will shoot down all of these dreams. Please
understand this situation on why we want to keep it Equestrian.
Moreover, the planned 135 wineries, with hotels, amphitheaters andfuture concerts, will
result in severely increased traffic & noise, to mention just the obvious. Currently, the
noise from WilsonCreek Winery on concert nights can be heard from my house, which is
at least, one mile away. It sometimes keeps us awake, even with ear plugs in. Please
consider indoor entertainment (enclosed) areas for the environmental impact.
In closing, I want to say, my family and I absolutely love the local wineries, including
Wilson Creek Winery. We are members of wine clubs, and frequent the wineries
regularly, and the restaurants. We understand the vision for more wineries, but not an
exorbitant number; and absolutely not at the expense of the current residents, loss of our
property rights, and the values of our homes and improvements. Please consider the
people that live here, and the reasonswe bought here. Please hear us out. There are
pictures includedof our vision on this email.
Thank you very much for your consideration,

Dear Phanyvanh,
I am having trouble delineating the subject area related to our petition dated May 9, 2009. The exact
area and parcels involved are those within the north side of Pauba, north and south sides of Madera De
Playa, between Butterfield Stage Road and Anza Road. I hope this will assist you in accurately
identifying the area. If you have any questions or comments, please contact me immediately. Once
again, I would like to thank you and Mehtra for your help with our petition.
Sincerely,
Steve Turnbow

Subject: Wine Country Community Plan

http://www.socalwinecountryplan.org/

Good morning Mr. Turndow,

Thank you for contacting me back this morning in regards to Wine Country. The link below is to
the most recent draft of the Wine Country Community boundary.
http://www.socalwinecountryplan.org/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=V22v3WYvvCI%3d&tabid=38

As discussed on the phone, please delineate on the map the area that is referenced in your
petition dated May 2009 (please see attachment). The objective of which is to accurately present
concerns the community may have to the decisions makers, that is to the Planning Commissioners
and then ultimately to the Board of Supervisors.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for your time and help.

Best regards,
Phayvanh

Subject: Preferred Wine Country district for Parcel 966-380-010
Dear Phayvanh
Thank you for your follow-up on the Wine Country districts and your helpful information.
I personally feel that the creation of a Wine District in my area is unnecessary with no actual
benefit to the community but to create additional bureaucratic regulations which will have to be
funded and administered by higher taxes paid by you and me.
My vote would be to not be part of the wine Country designation at all. If I am forced to make a
different decision at a later date I can address the issue again at that time.
Should there be new information, or changes you feel I should know about, I would appreciate
hearing from you.
You have been very helpful with all the information you have given me.
Regards: Ron Smith
Ronald L Smith ttee.
954-565-4960
P.S. If you can confirm receipt of this I would appreciate it. Thanks

Josh, Thanks for taking the time with me to understand the process of my zoning.
I am writing to be concidered in the new zoning changes to the general zone changes. My APN number is 943-190-030-
7. I am currently zoned RA-5. My property currently boarders wine country zoning and I wish to be included as WC-W
zoning for the purpose of a possible small bed and breakfast of up to 5 rooms. Thank You, Barry Yoder 909-234-

Re: Atwood Property: 37104 De Portola Road, Temecula, CA 92592
APN: 927-630-011-1 (14.23 Acres)
Dear Mitra:
I represent Dan and Katie Atwood, who own the above referenced property(Property). In
reviewing the Proposed Wine Country 20/20 Boundary Map, we discovered that the property
resides within the Equestrian District and not the Winery District. See Map below(note solid
and dashed lines):
Proposed Change
My client requests the County
include the Atwood Property
within the Winery District by
adjusting the boundary map as
noted in the dashed lines
above. We believe this change
is appropriate for two reasons:
(1) the property is immediately
adjacent to Keyways Winery,
thus, the area has existing
winery uses in placeand is
comprised of an existing vineyard and is approximately 14 acres; and(2) my clients currently
own Atwood Estate Vineyard (http://www.atwoodwines.com/), producers of fine estate syrah
wine, which are sold at the Collective in Old Town Temecula. Because my clients own a winery
operating in the city limits, there is a possibility (and we want to retain the option) that my
clients may move their winery operations to the Property in the future (assuming appropriate
entitlements are secured through the Plot Plan process).

Request from Owner(s):

APN(s):
Inclusion in the proposed Equestrian District (see Group J-Exhibit A)
Justification from Owner(s):

037
Opportunities/Constraints:
Mr. Mann and his neighbors propose a new "Bella Vista Equestrian Zone" to
ensure allowance of 5 animals/acre, private boarding, animal rescue, pony clubs, 4H/FFA, and small-scale
breeding programs.
Environmental Consideration
Current Land Use Designations: Rural Residential and Rural Community Estate
Density Residential; Current Zoning Classification: R-A and R-R. R-A Zone allows two animals per 20,000 square
feet and two additional animals per acre; the R-R Zone allows five animals per acre. A five acre property with
the R-A Zone may have up to 12 horses; R-R Zone may have up to 25 horses. In addition, some of the desired
uses (pony clubs, animal rescue, etc.) are not currently allowed in the General Plan land use designations or
zoning classifications.
In/Out
Flood Zone Out
High Fire Area Out of High Fire Area; however, the area is within State Responsibility Area
Fault Zone/Line In
Paleontological Sensitivity In, High A sensitivity area
Subsidence In
Liquefaction Out
MSHCP Out
Other

Existing and Surrounding Uses:
Staff Recommendation:
The existing uses in this group are single family residential and vacant
residential (see Group J-Exhibit B). The surrounding uses include single family residential, vacant parcels and
wineries.
The existing equestrian uses may continue operations if they are in compliance with the
parcels existing zoning classification and were established legally. The Community Plan (Project) does not
change their zoning classifications. Furthermore, a series of wineries are located in a close proximity to this
group, which may create land uses conflicts in the future if additional equestrian uses are allowed in this group.
Therefore, this request does not meet an objective of the Community Plan and staff recommends denying this
request for inclusion in the proposed Equestrian District.

Lance, Susan, Vince, Bill, Tim, Lisa and Aaron, Ricky and Tom and J ulie:
This email is about my discussions with you all to help create a small equestrian zone on Bella Vista within the
proposed Wine Country area.
All I need right now is for you to reply with your street address(es) and phone numbers, and the statement:
"I would like to see a Bella Vista Equestrian Zone created to zone all properties with Bella Vista frontage and
its side streets to have the same rights and privileges as the proposed Equestrian Zone area, including but not

boarding facilities, to have 4H/FFA project animals, and all other similar zoning permissions."
Also- if you can get any of our neighbors on Bella Vista or the side streets (like J ay Walker Ranch, or J oanne,
or other folks you may know in the neighborhood), that will help cement the case.
I will gather these up and start pushing hard to get this special zone set up for us.

Adam, Mitra, et al:
Adam:
Thanks for providing the link to the "standard change of zone plan" application in your last
correspondence.
I am hiring a real estate/zoning attorney to help me complete it appropriately and to hopefully expedite
this process.
Are there any particular firms or attorneys you recommend that are in good standing with the county to
help this happen.
It is curious as to why a change of zone for a single property takes 4-6 months- can you explain what
all has to happen that takes so long?
Mitra:
I am still very concerned about the overall Wine Country Community Plan for my area and how it seems
to be being railroaded through by Dan Stephenson, Bill Wilson and other interested parties.
It is also concerning that folks up in Riverside who may not have as much background in
rural/agricultural lifestyles don't seem to have taken a close look at the "interior" of Wine Country- so
again, I would reiterate that you are cordially invited for a behind-the-scenes tour with me. Next week
is wide open for me- do you have any days you are in Temecula that we could meet and I could show
you around.
Finally, can you please let me know what are the upcoming public dates to be aware of to discuss this,
as well as the dates of closed-door sessions that the public may not be invited to, but has a right to be
informed about.
Thanks so much.

Dear Mr. Mann,
Thank you for your candor and practical application of your property. Your comments are definitely
insightful. In order to effectively advise you on how to process a zone change application it would be
very helpful to be able to take a look at your property via an APN or address.
A zone change application is definitely a possibility and I would like to take the opportunity to review the
specifics regarding your property and I can provide more specifics on the process.
Please let me know if there are any additional questions.

Subject: RE: questions on the Temecula Wine Country zoning
Thanks Adam.
My issue is that my property is zoned R-R for land use and R-A5 for zoning purposes. I would assume
that means I am limited to 2 animals/acre, whereas when I moved here I thought I had 5 animals/acre
plus the 3X that for sheep and goats.
I am not sure if any of you are animal people, but for someone who wants to run a small private
boarding facility, or even an amateur roper, cutter, or small livestock hobby rancher, 2 animals/acre is
not sufficient.
We currently have 5 acres with 3 horses and 12 goats, which means I am already out of compliance,
and I cant even use all the stalls and paddocks I have on my property, nor can anyone even see my
animals from the street.
At one point, we were boarding 8 horses, owned 3 of our own, and had 50 breeding goats. The
place was still immaculate, very efficiently used. It would have been in compliance under the R-R
rules, with room to spare, but not under R-A5, and we were cited.
So I want to know how to get my property zoned as R-R, permanently, for zoning purposes.
Can you please inform me how to do that? Do I hire a real estate attorney, do I put something in front
of you, the planning commission, or what is the process?
If I know I have R-R permissions to run my private boarding and breeding operations, or to keep cattle
for roping and cutting, then I will be much more able to support the overall plan.
Thanks for any advice.

Dear Mr. Mann,
Thank you for your email and for contacting the Riverside County Planning Department. I am the Project
Manager for the Comprehensive Update to Ordinance No. 348 (the County's Land Use Ordinance). This
project is moving along and we are expected to be at Planning Commission for public hearings by the
end of the year.
This project has taken a comprehensive look at every zoning classification, which includes the Rural
Residential (R-R) and Residential Agriculture (R-A) zone.
With respect to animal keeping uses in both the R-A and R-R zones, there is no intention to remove the
authorization of any of these uses contained within these zones.
For your review and comment, I have attached the DRAFT public versions of the R-A and R-R zones. I
believe you will find the particular uses of concern to be retained within these draft versions. In order to
better understand these documents, please note that language in a Redline/Strikeout is being deleted,
language in black is existing and being retained, and language in red and underlined is newly proposed
language.
Please let me know if there are any additional questions or concerns.

Subject: Update on MANN property zoning questions
Date: Friday, October 07, 2011 2:50:04 PM
Adam, Mitra, et al:
Adam:
Thanks for providing the link to the "standard change of zone plan" application in your last
correspondence.
I am hiring a real estate/zoning attorney to help me complete it appropriately and to hopefully expedite
this process.
Are there any particular firms or attorneys you recommend that are in good standing with the county to
help this happen.
It is curious as to why a change of zone for a single property takes 4-6 months- can you explain what
all has to happen that takes so long?
Mitra:
I am still very concerned about the overall Wine Country Community Plan for my area and how it seems
to be being railroaded through by Dan Stephenson, Bill Wilson and other interested parties.
It is also concerning that folks up in Riverside who may not have as much background in
rural/agricultural lifestyles don't seem to have taken a close look at the "interior" of Wine Country- so
again, I would reiterate that you are cordially invited for a behind-the-scenes tour with me. Next week
is wide open for me- do you have any days you are in Temecula that we could meet and I could show
you around.
Finally, can you please let me know what are the upcoming public dates to be aware of to discuss this,
as well as the dates of closed-door sessions that the public may not be invited to, but has a right to be
informed about.
Thanks so much.
-Russ

Thanks Adam.
My issue is that my property is zoned R-R for land use and R-A5 for zoning purposes. I would assume
that means I am limited to 2 animals/acre, whereas when I moved here I thought I had 5 animals/acre
plus the 3X that for sheep and goats.
I am not sure if any of you are animal people, but for someone who wants to run a small private
boarding facility, or even an amateur roper, cutter, or small livestock hobby rancher, 2 animals/acre is
not sufficient.
We currently have 5 acres with 3 horses and 12 goats, which means I am already out of compliance,
and I cant even use all the stalls and paddocks I have on my property, nor can anyone even see my
animals from the street.
At one point, we were boarding 8 horses, owned 3 of our own, and had 50 breeding goats. The
place was still immaculate, very efficiently used. It would have been in compliance under the R-R
rules, with room to spare, but not under R-A5, and we were cited.
So I want to know how to get my property zoned as R-R, permanently, for zoning purposes.
Can you please inform me how to do that? Do I hire a real estate attorney, do I put something in front
of you, the planning commission, or what is the process?
If I know I have R-R permissions to run my private boarding and breeding operations, or to keep cattle
for roping and cutting, then I will be much more able to support the overall plan.
Thanks for any advice.

Adam:

I greatly appreciate your consideration of my individual issues, when I know
you have 200,000 residents of Temecula and over 2 million in Riverside
County.

My confusion comes from the two maps off the Riverside TLMA GIS (below) where
in one property I am R-R and in the next R-A5, with A-10 across the street
and R-R down the road.

The APN and address are : - 941-150-024 39651 VIA CACHO TEMECULA, CA. 92592 .
Other info I pulled from the GIS is below.
I pulled a satellite picture of the property and showed you what could be done (the unused part), and
what is currently being done (already out of compliance). 5 acres is a TON of room that one can do a
lot with, without overcrowding.
Perhaps of interest is our old website from when we offered boarding and breeding is here:
www.ranchopapagallo.com
And ironically, heres an article from the Press-Enterprise where my wife was
lauded for being part of the locally grown movement, with our organic
chicken eggs and goat breeding, and a picture of our old goat herd:
http://www.pe.com/localnews/inland/stories/PE_News_Local_D_food03.3f766d6.html
By the way, there are 26 goats in that picture using only about a quarter
of an acre in the dry pasture that is hidden from street view- yet we would
be considered out of compliance for that (as mentioned below, I have half as
many goats on 5 acres yet am already out of compliance right now).

Thanks for your thoughts and interest.

-Russ

IMPORTANT NOTICE: On October 7, 2003, the County of Riverside adopted a new General Plan. The
General Plan provides new land use designations for all parcels in the unincorporated area of
Riverside County. For any parcel, the General Plan may provide for a different type of land use than is
provided for under existing zoning. During the next one to two years, the County will undertake a
program to review all the zoning in the unincorporated area, and where necessary, change the zoning,
following advertised public hearings, to conform to the County's new General Plan. Until then, please
be advised that there may be a difference between the zoning and General Plan designations on any
parcel. This may result in, at a minimum, the need to change the zoning before desired development
may proceed. For further information, please contact the Riverside County Planning Department offices
in Riverside at (951) 955-3200, in Murrieta at (951) 600-6170, or in Indio at (760) 863-8277.:

Date: Tuesday, September 27, 2011 6:23:58 PM
Thanks Adam.

My issue is that my property is zoned R-R for land use and R-A5 for zoning purposes. I would
assume that means I am limited to 2 animals/acre, whereas when I moved here I thought I had 5
animals/acre plus the 3X that for sheep and goats.

I am not sure if any of you are animal people, but for someone who wants to run a small private
boarding facility, or even an amateur roper, cutter, or small livestock hobby rancher, 2
animals/acre is not sufficient.

We currently have 5 acres with 3 horses and 12 goats, which means I am already out of
compliance, and I cant even use all the stalls and paddocks I have on my property, nor can anyone
even see my animals from the street.
At one point, we were boarding 8 horses, owned 3 of our own, and had 50 breeding goats. The
place was still immaculate, very efficiently used. It would have been in compliance under the R-R
rules, with room to spare, but not under R-A5, and we were cited.

So I want to know how to get my property zoned as R-R, permanently, for zoning purposes.

Can you please inform me how to do that? Do I hire a real estate attorney, do I put something in
front of you, the planning commission, or what is the process?

If I know I have R-R permissions to run my private boarding and breeding operations, or to keep
cattle for roping and cutting, then I will be much more able to support the overall plan.

Thanks for any advice.

-Russ

Dear Mr. Mann,

Thank you for your email and for contacting the Riverside County Planning Department. I am the
Project Manager for the Comprehensive Update to Ordinance No. 348 (the Countys Land Use
Ordinance). This project is moving along and we are expected to be at Planning Commission for
public hearings by the end of the year.

This project has taken a comprehensive look at every zoning classification, which includes the Rural
Residential (R-R) and Residential Agriculture (R-A) zone.

With respect to animal keeping uses in both the R-A and R-R zones, there is no intention to remove
the authorization of any of these uses contained within these zones.

For your review and comment, I have attached the DRAFT public versions of the R-A and R-R zones.
I believe you will find the particular uses of concern to be retained within these draft versions. In
order to better understand these documents, please note that language in a Redline/Strikeout is
being deleted, language in black is existing and being retained, and language in red and underlined
is newly proposed language.

Please let me know if there are any additional questions or concerns.
Sincerely,

Adam Rush

Adam:

I am a wine country area resident and was forwarded a document listing you as in charge of a
major zoning re-write, especially as it relates to R-R and R-A zoning.

I have been in communication with Mitra on similar matters.

Can you please explain your role versus Mitra and who I should be talking to about my property
which is somehow zoned both R-R and R-A5 and I want to make sure is zoned R-R for animal
keeping purposes.
Thanks.

Opportunities/Constraints:

Current Land Use Designation: Agriculture within the Citrus Vineyard Rural Policy

The existing use for this group is agricultural vineyard (see Group M-Exhibit B).
Surrounding uses include single family residential, winery and a private school.


The Community Plan adoption may restrict some of the existing wineries to expand
their business operations as prescribed in the C/V Zone. Therefore, County staff has proposed the Wine Country
Winery Existing zone to allow expansion of these existing legal wineries according to their current
requirements of C/V Zone. This group does not have an existing or legally approved winery, and therefore, it
does not qualify to benefit from the Winery Existing zone. As a result, staff recommends denying this request to
be included in the Wine Country Winery Existing zone.

Opportunities/Constraints:
Mr. Corona is concerned that the Community Plan adoption will result in down-
zoning of his property along Arroyo Seco Road. Please note that the parcels along Highway 79 (APNs -
965410001, 965420001-003, 965430001-003) are not within the proposed Community Plan boundary, thus are

Existing and Surrounding Uses:
Recommendation:
The existing use on Mr. Coronas parcels is agriculture (Group N-Exhibit B). The
existing uses of surrounding parcels include vacant lands, single family residential and wineries.

This group is surrounded by several existing wineries. Per this request, should the County
allow smaller lot residential subdivisions for this group, it may result in creating future land use conflicts in and
around this group. Therefore, this request does not meet an objective of the Community Plan and staff
recommends denying this request for exclusion from the proposed Policy Area or Winery District thereof.

Supervisor Stone assembled an ad-hoc Advisory Committee in 2009 to assist County staff in the development of the Wine Country Community Plan. The
Advisory Committee is composed of a diverse group of nineteen (19) members that represent winegrower, equestrian, residential and environmental interests.
Over the last three years, the Advisory Committee has discussed various issues and offers the following recommendations for consideration by the Planning
Commission and Board of Supervisors.


History of the Advisory Committee:

An ad-hoc group was established in early 2009 to receive community input on the various matters that were being addressed by the Project. The original ad-hoc
group was composed of 6 members 4 representatives of the Winegrowers Association, 1 winery developer, and 1 wine country expert. Staff conducted
approximately 4 meetings with this group to help define a scope for this Project. As a part of this process, a Vision 20-20 survey was conducted; a mission
statement for the Project was developed; and Project objectives were established.

As the ad-hoc group worked with County staff in defining a Project boundary, it was apparent that the group needed to reach out to equestrian community within
the Valle de los Caballos region. In September 2009, some of the ad-hoc group members, as well as County staff, attended a town hall meeting for equestrian
stakeholders to discuss the Project vision. Subsequently, in December 2009, the ad-hoc group was expanded into the ad-hoc Wine County Advisory Committee
and 6 equestrian representatives were added. At the same time, two at-large members were also added to the Committee to bring a neutral perspective to the
planning process.

In February 2010, County staff conducted a tour of the region with the Advisory Committee and interested community members. During this tour, it was evident
that a significant amount of existing and future residential enclaves were being impacted by the Project proposal. Subsequently, 2 area residents were added in
April 2010, and 3 area residents got added in J uly 2010 to the Advisory Committee.

As a result of this evolution of the ad-hoc Advisory Committee over the course of a year, some of the following issues and their recommendations were discussed
for the first time with the Committee as it existed at the time. Since J uly 2010, the Committees composition has not changed. Over the last two years, the
Committee and community members have had adequate opportunities to rework issues and recommendations that were of specific concern to them.

Issue Discussion Points
Advisory Committee
Recommendation
Consensus
1 To expand Wine
Country further
beyond the existing
Citrus Vineyard Policy
Area
Staff considered conservation lands, approved cases, current uses,
parcel sizes, topography, existing General Plan designations, etc. to
prepare a proposal for the expansion of Wine Country.
As a result, the current Citrus Vineyard Policy Area is proposed to
expand fromapprox. 7,000 acres to 19,000 acres of the Wine
Country Policy Area. This expanded region would allow additional
areas for new wineries to materialize.
This proposal encompasses the Valle de los Caballos Policy Area.
The Community Plan proposes an implementing zone for this
valley of horses, which supports and promotes equestrian uses.
This proposal also encompasses existing residential enclaves and it
creates a specialized district, where future residential subdivisions
would be encouraged in seclusion fromthe commercial activity
cores of the Policy Area.
The Advisory Committee fully
supported staffs
recommendation of creating three
districts Winery, Equestrian,
and Residential. This approach
will encourage harmonious
coexistence among the three very
diverse, but potentially symbiotic
interest-groups.
Unanimous
2 To avoid making
existing uses non-
conforming upon the
Plan adoption
A consistency zoning effort (through applying proposed zones to all
parcels) with this Community Plan would have created many non-
conforming uses after the plan adoption.
Multiple uses currently exist within this region that are either legal
non-conforming uses or illegal uses that were legal when
established, but became illegal due to past consistency zoning
efforts.
The Advisory Committee was committed to ensure that the
Community Plan adoption would not make any existing uses non-
conforming, and amortize themout in the future.
The Advisory Committee fully
supported staffs
recommendation of creating three
districts within the General Plan
Policy Area that dictate the
consistency zoning on a parcel-
by-parcel basis when a land use
proposal is submitted in the
future. This approach will allow
the existing uses to continue
operating under the current zones
of the parcels.
Unanimous

3 To provide certainty
during the
implementation of the
Wine Country Policy
Area
Currently, the Riverside County General Plan allows individual
property owners to amend the Policy Areas on a quarterly basis.
As a result of multiple General Plan amendments, the vision,
boundary and policies of the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de los
Caballos Policy Areas have changed.
The County and its stakeholders have spent countless hours in the
development of this Wine Country Policy Area proposal.
The Advisory Committee strongly felt that the Policy Area, upon its
adoption, should not be subject to change by an individual project
proponent.
The Advisory Committee fully
supported staffs
recommendation that would
require amendments to this
Policy Area either through a
County-initiated process or
through a certainty system
review cycle (which occurs
every 8 years). Furthermore, the
Committee made the district
boundary changes subject to the
same requirement.
General support from
the Committee;
however, one winery
representative
preferred to allow
property owner
initiated quarterly
amendments.
4 To authorize small-
scale Production
Wineries on less than
10 acres
A few stakeholders strongly felt that small-scale wineries, that do not
have tasting rooms or retail wine shops, should be authorized in the
proposed Policy Area and its implementing zones.
The current Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area and C/V zone authorizes
processing and packing of fruits with the following language:
Vineyards; groves; equestrian lands; field crops; flower, vegetable,
and herb gardening; orchards; apiaries; the drying, processing and
packing (other than canning) of fruits, nuts, vegetables and other
horticultural products where such drying, processing or packing is
primarily in conjunction with an agricultural operation or an
incidental commercial use are permitted in the C/V Zone.
This language allows for wine production (without tasting rooms and
retail wine shops) as an agricultural operation.
The Advisory Committee fully
supported staffs
recommendation to carry forward
this language of the C/V zone
into the proposed zones for the
Wine Country Policy Area.
Unanimous
5 To authorize Cottage
Inn (max. 5 rooms)
and Cottage Industry
in the Policy Area
Wine Country residents are currently renting their homes, or rooms
within their homes, for a short period of time.
Similarly, a lot of cottage industries are currently operating within
private-homes of the Wine Country region.
The Advisory Committee worked diligently with County staff in
drafting a definition for Cottage Inn and Cottage Industry to capture
these existing uses.
The Advisory Committee and
community members fully
supported staffs
recommendation to authorize
these uses by right in all four
implementing zones of this
Policy Area.
Unanimous

6 To modify
implementing
language concerning
numbers of allowable
animals in various
Districts of the Policy
Area
For the Equestrian District and implementing Equestrian zone, 5
animals per acre was an acceptable proposal.
For the Residential District and implementing Residential zone, a
significant discussion occurred on whether to allow 5 or 2 animals
per acre.
For the Winery District and implementing Winery and Winery
Existing zones, due to anticipated high influx of tourist activities,
staff proposed to reduce allowable number of animals for future
uses to 2 animals per acre.
This proposal was received with complete support fromthe
winegrowers; however, initially the equestrian and residential
representatives were not supportive.
After realizing that this proposal would only impact new uses, and
not any existing uses, zones, or their animal keeping rights, a
general compromised was reached.
The Advisory Committee, after
significant discussions, supported
staffs recommendation for:
1. 5 animals per acre in the
Equestrian District; and
2. 5 Animals per acre in the
Residential District; and
3. 2 animals per acre in the
Winery District.
General support from
the Committee;
however, one
residential
representative
preferred to allow 5
animals per acre in
the Winery District.
7 To create an integrated
Trails Network that
allow multi-purpose
access to various
destinations
The Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the General Plan currently
encompasses a Trails Network within the non-motorized
transportation network discussion.
However, it does not connect existing wineries and other tourist
destinations, such as Lake Skinner and Vail Lake, through
equestrian and multi-purpose trails system.
A Trails Sub-committee worked with the County Regional Parks
and Open Space District and Planning Staff in the development of a
trails network that was more conducive to this regions destination
places and users needs.
One of the biggest challenges for this proposal was to find a
compromise between equestrians, who prefer to ride on trails that
are separated fromthe roads, and winery owners, who do not prefer
equestrians riding through their winery operations.
The Advisory Committee reviewed the Trails Sub-committees
recommendations on multiple occasions, and provided feedback to
prepare an integrated trails network proposal.
The Advisory Committee, after
multiple discussions, supported
the Trails Sub-committees
recommendations.
Unanimous

8 To replace the
Citrus/Vineyard
Design Guidelines
with the Temecula
Valley Wine Country
Design Guidelines
The current Citrus/Vineyard Design Guidelines provide valuable
guidance for new developments regarding site design and planning
as well as architecture within the Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area.
These guidelines will need to be updated for the Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area to accommodate equestrian and
residential interests.
In addition, the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors
recently approved streetscape guidelines for Rancho California
Road, and to a smaller degree, De Portola Road as recommended
by the Advisory Committee. Those guidelines will need to be
incorporated into the proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country
Design Guidelines.
Not applicable. Not applicable.
9 Winery District to
further refine
incidental commercial
uses per parcel sizes
Most of the current land use conflicts within the Wine Country
region are created when incidental commercial uses are established
next to residential enclaves.
The current C/V Zone allows incidental commercial uses Special
Occasion Facilities, Lodging Facilities and Restaurants on 10
acres. All of these uses are difficult to accommodate on 10 acre
parcels due to the 75% vineyard planting requirement.
In addition, these current regulations have promoted subdivision of
larger parcels into 10 acre parcels, which is threatening the existing
rural character and vision of Wine Country.
As a result, the Advisory Committee strongly suggested increasing
parcel sizes for these incidental commercial uses.
For new wineries, the Advisory
Committee supported the
following:
1. Winery with Tasting Room
and Retail Wine Shop on 10
acres; and
2. Special Occasion Facilities,
Lodging Facilities and
Restaurants on 20 acres; and
3. Resorts (with amphitheaters
etc.) on 40 acres.
Unanimous
10 Winery District to
allow existing
wineries to continue
operating per current
regulations
Some of the existing winery owners have purchased 10-20 acre
parcels for a winery and are operating their businesses under the
current C/V Zone requirements.
The Community Plan adoption may restrict some of their ability to
expand their business operations as prescribed in the C/V Zone.
Planning staff conducted an inventory of existing wineries to
identify wineries that would be impacted by this proposal.
The Advisory Committee recommended that staff work with
County Counsel to develop an approach that would Grandfather
in these existing wineries.
For existing wineries on less than
20 acres, the Advisory
Committee supported creation of
a fourth implementing zone for
the Winery District. This
approach would allow the 28
existing wineries to expand per
current regulations through
utilization of the Wine Country
Winery Existing zone.
Unanimous

11 Winery District to
further regulate
Special Occasion
Facilities
The Advisory Committee has spent significant time in discussing
this controversial issue.
This is the most controversial use of this region due to potential
concerns associated with noise and traffic impacts.
The current requirements of the C/V Zone are more permissive and
do not have adequate enforceable standards for this use.
As a result, many code enforcement challenges, and subsequently,
high levels of frustration among residents, are on-going in this
community.
The majority of code complaints are generated as a result of noise
created by amplified music fromoutdoor facilities.
The County has created a special code enforcement teamthat is
addressing existing code violations over weekends and evenings.
The Advisory Committee has struggled to find a resolution
regarding this matter.
The Advisory Committee agreed
on the following compromise for
the Special Occasion Facilities:
1. Allowed with a winery only;
and
2. 20 acre min for a special
occasion facility with new
wineries; and
3. 5 guests per acre; and
4. Noise study required with
acoustical analysis for all
outdoor facilities; and
5. Good Neighbor Agreement
may be required; and
6. Amphitheaters allowed with
Resorts on 40 acres min.
General support from
the Committee;
however, a couple of
residential
representatives
preferred to restrict
this use further and a
few winery
representative felt
that 5 guests per acre
was very restrictive.
12 Winery District to
increase minimum
acreage requirement
for residential
subdivision, to require
clustering, and to
require more planting
Most of the future land use conflicts within the Wine Country
region are anticipated fromincidental commercial uses near
residential subdivisions.
As a result of these land use conflicts between residential and
commercial uses, future code enforcement challenges are also
foreseeable.
The Advisory Committee expressed a strong desire to expand
beyond staffs initial proposal to require additional planting to
avoid such future land use conflicts.
The Advisory Committee fully
supported staffs
recommendation concerning
residential subdivisions:
1. 10 acre minimum; and
2. Clustering required; and
3. 75% planting or equestrian
lands with clustering.
Unanimous
13 Winery District to
allow golf courses
within resorts
Golf courses are currently allowed in the C/V Zone with 50%
planting requirement and no minimumparcel size.
The Planning Department has not received any applications for this
use at this time.
A few large land owners would prefer the option of developing a
golf course within their resort in the future.
The Advisory Committee was fairly divided on this proposal due to
its inconsistency with Wine Country vision, high water usage and
oversupply of this use in the Southwestern Riverside County.
By a 9-4 vote, the Advisory
Committee supported staffs
recommendation to allow golf
courses with resort application.
This proposal would allow staff
to consider golf courses on a site
specific project when an
application is submitted.
General support from
the Committee;
however, a few of
residential
representatives were
concerned about
water usage of this
use.

14 Winery District to
consider timeshares
within resorts
Currently, timeshares are neither permitted nor prohibited in the
C/V Zone.
For financing purposes, a few large land owners would like to have
the option of providing timeshares within their resort
establishments.
The Advisory Committee debated this issue on multiple occasions
to determine their viability in Wine Country.
The Advisory Committee
supported staffs
recommendation to neither
permit nor prohibit timeshares in
the Winery District. This would
allow staff to consider timeshares
on a site specific project when an
application is submitted.
General support from
the Committee;
however, a couple of
representatives were
concerned about this
use.
15 Winery District to
allow olives to satisfy
ten percent (10%)
planting requirements
Currently, the C/V Zone requires 75% grapevine planting with a
winery and its incidental commercial uses.
Due to topography or other site specific constraints, some winery
proponents have struggled to meet this requirement.
The Advisory Committee was sympathetic to these concerns, and
directed staff to provide some flexibility in this planting
requirement.
The Advisory Committee
supported staffs
recommendation to allow
planting of olives to satisfy 10%
of the planting requirement for
grapevines.
General support from
the Committee;
however, a couple of
residential
representatives
preferred grapevines
only.
16 Winery District
proposal south of Hwy
79S.
Currently, areas south of 79S are designated as 5 acres or larger
land use designations in the General Plan.
This area has seen a flux of Foundation Amendment requests to
change Rural, Agriculture, or Open Space foundation components
to Community Development (5-8 DU/Ac).
The Advisory Committee has struggled to determine a future land
use scenario within this area, since the property owners (within and
surrounding this area) are fairly divided.
The City of Temecula, in a letter dated April 21, 2011 to Planning
Director, has expressed their desire to maintain this region for rural
preservation in the future.
The current proposal incorporates this area within the proposed
Community Plan boundary and designates it as the Winery District.
The Advisory Committee and
staff have not prepared a
recommendation on this
proposal. Instead, have agreed
that staff will provide multiple
alternatives for consideration by
the Planning Commission and
Board of Supervisors.
Unanimous support
for discussing this
issue at Planning
Commission.

17 Residential District
to prohibit small
wineries (with tasting
roomand retail wine
shop)
Currently, R-R, A-1, and R-A zones are prominent within the
proposed Residential Districts. These zones allow wineries and
other commercial uses on acre parcels.
The proposed Wine Country Policy Area and all four proposed
implementing zones allow small wineries on 10 acres with 75%
vineyard planting requirement.
Wine Country residents are very frustrated with noise generated
fromthe Special Occasion Facilities. Traditionally, these facilities
(and their negative impacts) are incidental uses to a winery.
Therefore, one residential representative has proposed to prohibit
small wineries in the Wine Country Residential District.
During the first meeting, the
Advisory Committee decided to
support small wineries in the
Residential District after a very
brief discussion.
General support from
the Committee;
however, a couple of
residential
representatives
preferred to prohibit
wineries
18 Residential District
to increase minimum
acreage requirement
for residential
subdivision, to require
clustering, and to
require more planting
Currently, most of the areas proposed for the Residential District
fall within the Rural Community Foundation Component (0.5-2 Ac
min).
A few General Plan Amendments have been initiated, or are being
processed, that would authorize residential subdivision with smaller
parcel sizes.
To retain the rural character, the Advisory Committee strongly
suggested requiring larger parcel sizes, clustering and mandatory
planting requirements for the future residential subdivisions.
The Advisory Committee fully
supported staffs
recommendation concerning
residential subdivisions:
1. 5 acre minimum; and
2. Clustering required; and
3. 75% planting or equestrian
lands with clustering.
Unanimous
19 Equestrian District
to create a comparable
zone that promotes
equestrian uses

Currently, there are many commercial equestrian operations or
establishments of various sizes in the Valle de los Caballos region.
Riverside County does not have an existing zone that supports and
promotes equestrian activities.
Staff could not find any other jurisdiction in the nation that has
adopted a comprehensive equestrian zone.
Therefore, the Advisory Committee struggled with staff in the
development of an equestrian zone that supports and promotes
these activities as well as encourages a consistent and comparable
character as the winery region.
The Advisory Committee, after
many discussions, supported
staffs recommendation:
1. 10 acre minimumfor
incidental equestrian uses;
and
2. Scaling of incidental uses per
parcel sizes; and
3. 75% set-aside for equestrian
land; and
4. Larger set-backs frommajor
roads; and
5. Similar height standards.

20 Equestrian District
to legalize existing
commercial equestrian
uses
Currently, there are many commercial equestrian operations of
various sizes in the Valle de los Caballos region.
Some of these uses were legally established in the 1960s and 1970s.
As a result of the adoption and application of R-R, R-A, and A-1
zones in the late 1970s, these uses became legal non-conforming
uses with a 30-years amortization period.
In the 2000s, that 30-years amortization period ended for those
commercial equestrian operations.
As a result, these equestrian activities became illegal uses, subject
to code violation and enforcement.
The equestrian representatives of the Advisory Committee worked
closely with staff in reaching a compromised agreement for these
commercial equestrian uses.
For the purely horse related
equestrian uses (boarding,
nursing and/or training), the
Advisory Committee supported
staffs recommendation to
authorize themby right, as long
as those owners agree to adopt
the Wine Country Equestrian
zone. For the human intensive
equestrian uses (restaurants, polo
grounds and/or petting zoos), the
Committee agreed to authorize
themthrough a Plot Plan or
Conditional Use Permit process
under the proposed Equestrian
zone.
Unanimous
21 Equestrian District
to prohibit clustering
with residential
subdivision
Currently, there is no requirement for clustering in the Valle de los
Caballos Policy Area for residential subdivisions.
Over the last few years, the Citrus/Vineyard region has benefited
fromclustering of residential lots since it is an important tool to
advance open/rural character.
Instead of allowing 5 acre or 10 acre parcels with no open space
commitment, clustering option restricts the density yield of the
residential subdivisions, while requiring large open space areas.
Due to their concern with smaller parcel sizes and higher density
residential subdivisions, some of the equestrian stakeholders and
representatives are not supportive of this concept.
The Advisory Committee has
agreed to support the wishes of
the equestrian representatives by
prohibiting clustering of
residential lots in the Equestrian
District and zone.
General support from
the Committee;
however, a couple of
representatives
preferred clustering
for maintaining rural
character of this
region.

22 Equestrian District
to allow Special
Occasion Facilities on
100 acre or larger
parcels
Some of the existing zones in the Valle de los Caballos Policy Area
allow for an application of Special Occasion Facility.
In discussing this use in the Winery District, the equestrian
representatives felt that some of the large owners in the Equestrian
District should be offered that option as well.
However, these representatives were concerned with allowing the
Special Occasion Facilities on 20 acre or larger parcels.
The Advisory Committee requested that this use be only considered
on 100 acres minimumwithin the Equestrian District.
This proposal would only allow up to five properties eligible to
apply for a Special Occasion Facility.
The Advisory Committee
unanimously supported
authorizing the Special Occasion
Facilities on 100 acres minimum
with a Conditional Use Permit
process under the proposed
Equestrian zone.
General support from
the Committee;
however, one
residential
representative was
concerned about
noise and traffic
generated fromthese
uses.
23 Equestrian District
to prohibit Lodging
Facilities (B&Bs,
country-inns, hotels
and resorts)
Some of the existing zones in the Valle de los Caballos Policy Area
allows for an application of Lodging Facility (hotel, motel).
In discussing this use in the Winery District, the equestrian
representatives felt that some of the large owners in the Equestrian
District may be offered that option as well.
However, these representatives were concerned about intensifying
the Equestrian District areas in where it would necessitate a sewer
extension into this rural community.
The Advisory Committee, upon the equestrian representatives
request, considered both allowing and prohibiting lodging facilities.
The Advisory Committee
supported the equestrian
representatives recommendation
to prohibit Lodging Facilities
within the Equestrian District.
Unanimous
24 To further refine
Policy Area and
District boundaries
On multiple occasions, the Advisory Committee received requests
fromland owners to either annex or de-annex their properties into
the Policy Area.
In addition, multiple requests were made to modify the proposed
district boundaries within the Policy Area.
As a result, the Advisory Committee understands that further
refinements to the Policy Area and district boundaries are
foreseeable during the public hearing process.
The Advisory Committee and
staff have not prepared the final
recommendation for this issue at
this time. Instead, staff will
provide a map for consideration
by the Planning Commission and
Board of Supervisors.
The Advisory
Committee
unanimously agreed
to address these
changes during the
Planning
Commission Hearing
process.

25 Relevant issues
discussed, but are not
a part of the
Community Plan
proposal
Hot Air Balloon Operations:

On multiple occasions, the Advisory
Committee debated regulating the hot air balloon operations
through these land use documents. This use is heavily regulated
through federal and state requirements. In addition, the Temecula
Valley Balloon Association is recently established to ascertain
some industry standards among the balloon operators at local level.
Therefore, the Advisory Committee decided not to address this
issue in this Community Plan process.
Off-Highway Vehicles (OHV):

On multiple occasions, the
Advisory Committee listened to the frustrations of area residents
due to off-highway vehicle operations. However, this is a County-
wide issue, which would require County-wide solutions. Therefore,
the Committee decided not to address it in this Community Plan.
Noise Ordinance:

Noise is an extensive code enforcement
challenge, primarily due to the OHV operations and special
occasion facilities. The Advisory Committee heard frustrating
accounts of the Noise Ordinance violations fromcurrent winery
owners and residents. As a result, the County has created a special
code enforcement teamthat addresses existing code violations over
weekends in this region. However, enforceability of the Noise
Ordinance is a County-wide issue. The Planning Department is
currently drafting a Noise Ordinance Amendment under a separate
Ordinance Amendment process.
Road Name Changes:
Not applicable
The winery representatives on the Advisory
Committee were interested in changing names of a few major roads
to reflect the Wine Country theme. On multiple occasions, this
issue was discussed. In the end, the Committee decided that this is
not a land use matter, and should be addressed outside the
Community Plan process.

Chapter 1: Introduction

Air is a co mmon resource that is essential to the
health of our communiti es. It embo dies essential
components that sup port global ecosystem,
economy and social equity. Without stewardship,
an over overabundance of a ir pollutants will
degrade air quality causing mild to severe health
effect in humans and animals, lower visibility, lost
of agricultural commodities, and property damage.
The reduction of greenhouse gase s emitted from
combustion of fossil f uel and other activitie s is
equally important as it is linked to global warming.
Riverside County recognizes it s role in addressing
regional air quality issues and has made great
strides in r educing its share of emissions. This
document is designed specifically to provide
guidance to project proponents within the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to
further the Countys progress in reducing
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions.

Purpose
Riverside County has developed a Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) as an extension of th e
General Plan, which e stablishes policies for d evelopment and conser vation within the entire
unincorporated County. The purpose of this SWAP is to address the specific requirements of
land uses in the Southwest region of the county with regard to long-term planning. Within th e
SWAP are policy areas, which ta ke into account locales which have a special significance to
residences in that part of the coun ty. More specifically, the Temecula Valley Wine Country
Policy Area of the SWAP seeks to address land uses specific to the region includi ng wineries,
equestrian, residential and other tourism related uses. Specific land use policies are contained
in the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area and are established to protect against land
uses which are incompatible with existing uses and to allow for growth. Specific policies
contained within the Po licy Area address diffe rent topics including transportation, land use,
population and employment, air quality and greenhouse gas emissions.
In order to ensure co nsistency with the General Plan a nd SWAP goals, the County has
developed this workbook to provide guidance a nd streamline CEQA review for implementin g
projects within the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. Thi s document serves to
implement the greenhouse gas reduction policies and objectives of Riverside County.

Chapter 2: Greenhouse Gases

Existing Conditions
The State of California recognized that anthropogenic (human-caused) greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions are contributing to changes in the gl obal climate, and that such change s are having
and will have adverse effects on the environment, the economy, and public health. These ar e
cumulative effects of past, present, and future actions worldwide. While worldwide contributions
of GHG emissions are expected to have widespread con sequences, it is not p ossible to link
particular changes to the environ ment of California or elsewhere to GHG e mitted from a
particular source or location. Thus, when considering a projects contribution to impacts from
climate change, it is possible to examine the q uantity of GHG emissions that would be emitte d
either directly from proj ect sources or indirectl y from othe r sources, such as pr oduction of
electricity as a result of activities or l and use development in the County. GHGs trap heat in the
atmosphere, which in turn heats the surface of the Earth. Some GHGs occur naturally and are
emitted to the atmosphere through natural pro cesses, while others ar e created a nd emitted
solely through human a ctivities, primarily through the combustion of f ossil fuels. The State of
California has been at the forefront of dev eloping solutions to address global climate change
and reduce anthropogenic GHG emissions.
State law defines GHG to in clude the following compounds: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane
(CH4), nitrous oxide (N
2
O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), pe rfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur
hexafluoride (SF6) (CEQA Guidelines, section 15364.5; Health an d Safety Code, sectio n
38505(g)). The most common GHG that results from human activity is carbon dioxide, followed
by methane and nitrous oxide. Because GHGs have variable potencies, a common metric of
carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) is used to re port their combined potency. The potency each
GHG has in the atmosphere is measured as a combination of the volume of its e missions and
its global warming potential (GWP)
1
, and is expressed as a function of the potency with respect
to the same mass of CO
2
. Methane, for example has a GWP of 21, while nitrou s oxide has a
GWP of 310. Thus, by multiplying the amount in me tric tons of each individual gas by the ir
respective GWP, all GHGs can be reported in the commo n unit of metric tons
2
of CO
2
e (MT
CO
2
e).
Due to the succe ssful global ban s on chloro fluorocarbons (primarily used as r efrigerants,
aerosol propellants and cleaning solvents), Riverside County does not generate significan t
emissions of these GHGs. The same has o ccurred for other synthesized gases such as
hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and carbon tetrafluoride (CF4) which have been banned and are no
longer available on the market. Because of the ban, Riverside County will not generate
additional emissions of these GHGs.

Regulatory Discussion
Federal Regulations
a. Global Climate Change Programs
The United States Environmental Protection Ag ency (USEPA) is respon sible for implementing
federal policy to address global climate change. The federal government administers a wide
array of public-private partnerships to reduce GHG intensity generated by the United States.
These programs focus on energy e fficiency, renewable energy, methane and other non-CO2
gases, agricultural practices, and implementation of technol ogies to achieve GHG reductions.
The USEPA impleme nts several voluntary programs that substa ntially contribute to th e
reduction of GHG emissions including:
The State Climate an d Energy Partner Network that allows for the exchange of
information between federal and state agencies regarding climate and energy,
The Climate Leaders program for companies, the Energy Star labe ling system for
energy-efficient products, and
The Green Power Partnership for organizations interested in buying green power.
All of these programs play a significant role in encouraging voluntary reductions from large
corporations, consumers, industrial and co mmercial buildings, and many maj or industrial
sectors.
In Massachusetts v. Environmenta l Protection Agency (Docket No. 051120), the U.S.
Supreme Court held in April of 2007 that the USEPA ha s authority t o regulate greenhouse
gases, and the USEPA's reasons for not regulating this area did not fit the statutory
requirements. As such , the U.S. Supreme Co urt ruled that the USEPA should be required to
regulate CO2 and other greenhouse gases as pollutants under Section 202(a)(1) of the federal
Clean Air Act (CAA).
The USEPA issued a Final Rule for mandatory reporting of GHG emissions in October of 2009.
This Final Rule applies to fossil fuel suppliers, industrial gas suppliers, direct GHG emitters, and
manufactures of heavy-duty and off-road vehicles and veh icle engines, and requires annual
reporting of emissions. The Final Rule was effe ctive December 29, 2009, with data collect ion
beginning January 1, 2010, and the first annual reports due in March 2011. This rule does not
regulate the emission of GHGs; it only requires the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas
emissions for those sources above certain thresholds (USEPA 2009). USEPA adopted a Final
Endangerment Finding for the six defined GHGs on December 7, 2009. The Endangerment
Finding is required befor e USEPA can regulate GHG emissions under Section 202(a)(1) of the
CAA in fulfillment of the U.S. Supreme Court decision.
On May 13, 2010, the USEPA issued a Final Rule that esta blishes a common sense approach
to addressing greenhouse gas emission s from stationary sources under the CAA permitting

programs. In the first phase of the Rule (January 2011-June 2011), only sources currently
subject to t he New So urce Review Preventio n of Signifi cant Deterioration (PSD) permitting
program (i.e., those that are newl y-constructed or modified in a way that significantly increases
emissions of a pollutant other than GHGs) are subject to permitting requirements for their GHG
emissions under PSD. For these projects, only GHG increases of 75,000 tons per year (tp y)
CO2e or more need to determine the Best Available Control Technology (BACT) for their GHG
emissions. This final rule sets a threshold of 75,000 tons per year for GHG emissions. Similarly
for the operating permit program, o nly sources currently subject to the program are subject to
Title V requirements for GHG. In the second phase of the rule (July 2011-June 2013) new
construction projects that exceed a threshold of 100,000 tpy and modifications of existing
facilities that increase emissions by at lea st 75,000 tpy will be subject to permitting
requirements. Additionally, operating facilit ies that emit at least 100,00 0 tpy will be subject to
title V permitting requirements (USEPA 2010a). New and e xisting industrial facilities that meet
or exceed that threshol d will requir e a permi t under the New Sourc e Review Prevention of
Significant Deterioration (PSD) an d Title V Operating Permit progra ms. This rule took effect
January 2, 2011.
b. Kyoto Protocol
The United States participated in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
(UNFCCC) (signed on March 21, 1994). Th e Kyoto Protocol i s a treaty made under the
UNFCCC and was the first internat ional agreement to regulate GHG emissions. It has been
estimated that if the commitments outlined in the Kyoto Protocol are met, global GHG emissions
could be reduced by an estimated 5 percent from 1990 levels during the first commitment period
of 20082012 (UNF CCC 1997). It should be noted that although the United States is a
signatory to the Kyoto Protocol, Congress has n ot ratified the Protocol and the United States is
not bound by the Protocols commitments.
In anticipation of providing an updated international treaty for the reduction of GHG emissions,
representatives from 170 countries met in Copenhagen in December 2009 to ratify an updated
UNFCCC agreement (Copenhagen Accord). The Copenhagen Accord, a voluntary agreement
between the United States, China, India, and Brazil, recognizes the need to keep global
temperature rise to below 2C an d obliges signatories t o establish measures to reduc e
greenhouse gas emissi ons and to prepare to provide help to poorer countries in adapting to
climate change. The countries met again in Cancun in December 2010 and adopted the Cancun
Agreements, which reinforces and builds upon the Copenhagen Accord. The nations agreed to
recognize country targets, develop low-car bon development plans and strategies, and report
inventories annually. In addition, a greements were made regarding financing for developing
countries and technology support and coordina tion among all nation s. The next conference of
the parties is scheduled for December 2011 in South Africa.
c. Climate Change Technology Program
The United States has opted for a voluntary an d incentive-based appr oach toward emissions
reductions in lieu of the Kyoto Protocols mandatory framework. The Cli mate Change

Technology Program (CCTP) is a multi-agency research and development coordination eff ort
(which is led by the Secretaries of Energy and Commerce) that is charged with carrying out the
Presidents National Climate Change Technology Initiative.
State Regulations
a. California Air Resources Board
The California Air Resources Board, a part of the California EPA (CalEPA), is responsible f or
the coordination and a dministration of both f ederal and state air po llution control programs
within California. In t his capacity, ARB conducts resea rch, sets st ate ambient air quality
standards (California Ambient Ai r Quality Standards, or CAAQS), compiles emissio n
inventories, develops suggested control measures, and provides oversight of lo cal programs.
ARB establishes emissi ons standards for motor vehicles sold in California, consumer products
(such as hairspray, aerosol paints, and barbecue lighter flui d), and various types of commercial
equipment. It also set s fuel speci fications to further reduce vehicular emissions. ARB has
primary responsibility for the development of Cali fornias SIP, and works closely with the federal
government and the local air districts.
b. Assembly Bill 32, The Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006
In 2006, the California State Legislature adopted Assembly Bill 32 (AB 32), the California Global
Warming Solutions Act of 2006, fo cusing on reducing GHG e missions in California. GHGs a s
defined under AB 32 i nclude carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons,
perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride. AB 32 required CARB to ado pt rules and regulations
directing State actions that would achieve gr eenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 1990
statewide levels by 2020. On or be fore June 30, 2007, CARB was required to pub lish a list of
discrete early action GHG emission reduction measures that would be implemented to be made
enforceable by 2010. The law f urther required that su ch measures achieve t he maximum
technologically feasible and cost e ffective reductions in GHGs from sources or categories of
sources to achieve the statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit for 2020.
CARB published its F inal Report for Proposed Early Actions to Mitig ate Climate Change in
California in October 2007. This report describ ed recommendations f or discrete early action
measures to reduce GHG e missions as part of Californias AB 32 GHG reduction strategy.
Resulting from this are three new regulations proposed to meet the de finition of di screte early
action greenhouse gas reduction measures, including the following: a low carbon fuel standard;
reduction of HFC 134 a emissions from non-profession al servicing of motor vehicle air
conditioning systems; and improved landfill methane capture (CARB 2007d). CARB estimates
that by 202 0, the reductions from those three measures would range from 13 to 26 million
metric tons (MMT) CO2e.
Under AB 32, CARB has the pri mary responsibility for reducing GHG e missions. In 200 7,
CARB released a report, California 1990 GHG Em issions Level and 2020 Emissions Limit
(CARB 2007a), that determined the statewide l evels of GHG emissions in 1990 to be 427 MMT
CO2e. Additionally, in December 2008, CARB adopted t he Climate Change Scoping Plan,
T Te em me ec cu ul la a V Va al ll le ey y W Wi in ne e C Co ou un nt tr ry y
G Gr re ee en nh ho ou us se e G Ga as s R Re ed du uc ct ti io on n W Wo or rk kb bo oo ok k

Page7

which outlines the States strategy to achieve the 2020 GHG limit. Thi s Scoping Plan proposes
a comprehensive set o f actions d esigned to reduce overall greenho use gas e missions in
California, improve the environment, reduce dependence on oil, diversify energ y sources, save
energy, create new jobs, and enhance public health. The plan emp hasizes a cap-and-trade
program, but also includes the discrete early actions (CARB 2008).
c. Senate Bill 97
Senate Bill 97 (SB 97), enacted in 2007, ame nded the California En vironmental Quality Act
(CEQA) to clearly establish that GHG e missions and the effects of GHG emi ssions are
appropriate subjects for CEQA a nalysis. It directed the California Office of Pl anning and
Research (OPR) to develop revisions to the State CEQA Guidelines for the mitigation of GHG
emissions or the effects of GHG emissions a nd directed the Resources Agency t o certify and
adopt these revised State CEQA Guidelines by January 2010 (See PRC Sectio n 21083.05).
The revisions were codif ied into the California Code of Regulations and became full y effective
by July 2010. These revisions provide regulatory guidance for the analysis and mitigation of the
potential effects of GHG emissions.
d. Senate Bill 375
Senate Bill 375 (SB 3 75), which establishes mechanisms for the development of regiona l
targets for reducing passenger vehicle greenhouse gas emissions, was adopted by the State on
September 30, 2008. On September 23, 201 0, CARB adopted the v ehicular greenhouse gas
emissions reduction tar gets that had been de veloped in consultation with the metropolitan
planning organizations (MPOs); the targets re quire a 7 t o 8 percent reduction by 2020 and
between 13 to 16 percent reduction by 2035 for each MPO. SB 375 recognizes the importance
of achieving signifi cant greenhouse gas reductions by working with cities and counties t o
change land use p atterns and improve transportation alternatives. Through the SB 37 5
process, MPOs, such as the Southern California Council of Govern ments (SCAG), which
includes Riverside County, will work with local j urisdictions in the development of sustainable
communities strategies (SCS) designed to integrate development patterns and the
transportation network in a way that reduces gre enhouse gas emissions while meeting housing
needs and other regional planning objectives. The MPOs will prepare their first SCS according
to their respective regional transportation plan (RTP) update schedule; to date, no region has
adopted an SCS. The first of the RTP updates with SCS strategies are expected in 2012.
e. CALGreen
In November 2008, the California Building Standards Commission established the California
Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen) which set s performance standards for residential
and nonresidential development to reduce envir onmental impacts and encourage sustainabl e
construction practices. When the CALGreen code went into effect in 2009, compliance through
2010 was voluntary. As of Januar y 1, 2011, the CALGre en code is mandatory for all new

buildings constructed in the State. The CalGreen code addresses e nergy efficiency, water
conservation, material conservation, planning and design, and overall environmental quality.

Regional Regulations
a. Southern California Association of Governments
SCAG is a council of governments for Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San
Bernardino, and Ventura Counties. It is a regional planning agency and serves as a forum for
regional issues relating to transportation, the economy an d community development, and the
environment.
Although SCAG is not an air qua lity management agency, it is re sponsible for developing
transportation, land use, and energy conservation measures that affect air quality. SCAGs
Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide (RCPG) provide growth forecasts that are used in the
development of air q ualityrelated land use and transportation control strategies by th e
SCAQMD. The RCPG is a framework for decis ion-making for local governments, assisting
them in meeting federal and state mandates for growth manag ement, mobility, and
environmental standards, while maintaining con sistency with regional goals regarding growth
and changes through the year 2015, and beyond. Policie s within the RCPG include
consideration of air quality, land use, transportation, and economic relationships by all levels of
government. As the Metropolitan Planning Organization for the County of Riverside, SCAG is in
the process of implementing SB 375 with participation from the County and other local cities and
Counties. SCAGs reduction target for per capita vehicular emissions is 8 percent by 2020 and
13 percent by 2035 (CARB 2010b).
b. South Coast Air Quality Management District
The SCAQMD is the agency princi pally responsible for co mprehensive air polluti on control i n
the SoCAB. To that end, the SCAQMD, wor ks directly with SCAG, county transportation
commissions, local governments, and cooperates actively with all federal and state government
agencies. The SCAQMD develops rules and regulations, establishes permitting requirements,
inspects emissions sources, and enforces su ch measures though educational programs or
fines, when necessary.
SCAQMD is directly responsible for reducing emissions from stationary (area and point), mobile,
and natural sources. It has responded to this requirement by preparing a series o f Air Quality
Management Plans (AQMPs). The most recent of these was adopted by the Go verning Board
of SCAQMD on June 1, 2007. T his AQMP, referred to as the 2007 AQMP, was prepared t o
comply with the federal and state Clean Air Acts and amendments, to accommodate growth, to
reduce the high pollutant levels in the basins, to meet federal and st ate ambient air quality
standards, and to mini mize the fiscal impact that pollution control measures have on the local
economy. It identifies the control measures that will be implemented to reduce major sources of

pollutants. These planning efforts have substantially decreased the populations e xposure to
unhealthful levels of pollutants, even while substantial population growth has occurred within its
jurisdictional boundaries.
Riverside Countywide Regulations
a. General Plan
Public and private decisions regar ding land use, traffic circulation, a nd resource use can
influence the resultant air pol lutant and GHG emissions from, res pectively, development
patterns, vehicle u se and congestion, and alt ernative energy sources. Thus, many policie s
within the Countys General Plan under the Land Use, Circulation, and Multipurpose Open
Space Elements, are designed to encourage development of public and private lands that result
in less inte nsive energy use and emissions. For e xample, the Land Use Ele ment supports
concentrating growth near community centers, developing sites that capitalize upon multi-modal
transportation opportunities, and promoting co mpatible land use arrangements that reduce
reliance on the automobile. The Circulation Element, for example, supports tra nsit through
allowing higher densities, and encourages an d supports the development of projects tha t
facilitate and enhance the use of alternative modes of transportation , including pedestrian-
oriented retail and a ctivity centers, dedica ted bicycle l anes and paths, and mixed-use
community centers. T he Multipurpose Open S pace Element contains policies that support
implementation of the State Building Code a nd establishes mechanisms and incentives to
encourage architects and builders to exceed minimum the energy efficiency standards.
b. Air Quality Element and Climate Action Plan
As part of the General Plan, the Air Quality Element contains policies which assist the county in
meeting state and federal air qualit y guidelines and r educing pollutant emissions f rom mobile
and stationary sources. The Air Quality Element, similar to the Land Use and Circulatio n
Elements, account for growth wit hin the reg ion and ba lances the associated increase in
pollutant emissions. Some policies within the Air Quality Element address mobile and stationary
sources. With regard to mobile sources, th e Air Quality Element contains policies such as
encouraging use of mass transit, carpooling/ridesharing, and mixed-use development to reduce
vehicle miles travelled within the region. Wit h regard to stationary sources, su ch policies t o
reduce pollutant emissions include use of energy efficient building materials and use of energy
efficient appliances (boilers, air conditioning and water usage reductio n). In addit ion, the Ai r
Quality Element takes into account nearby sensitive receptors during construction of new land
uses to limit pollutant impacts to nearby existing sensitive uses (residential, school).
The County is currently (September 2011) developing an update to the Air Quality Element with
the General Plan Update. New information and policie s related to California laws and policies
related to g reenhouse gas (GHG) emission r eduction will be incorp orated into the revised
chapter. The proposed update to the Air Quality Element will also be the footing for the Countys
greenhouse gas emissi on reduction strategy. The Countys strategy will ali gn with the AB3 2
goal to reduce the States GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, as well as it s implementation

mechanism, SB 375. These efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions will not only benefit the
global climate, but improve the quality of life for Riverside County residents as well.
In addition, the County is currently (September 2011) developing the Climate Action Plan (CAP)
in conjunction with the General Plan Update. The CAP for Riverside County will include GHG
emission reduction goals and adopt implementation measures to achieve those goals through
policies and programs for new developments, county operations and existing communities.
Upon the adoption of t he General Plan Update, all indivi dual projects which ar e able to
demonstrate consistency with the revised Air Quality Elemen t and CAP will be able to undergo
streamlined CEQA review through tiering.

Chapter 3: Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction


Strategies for Wine Country

Pending adoption of an updated Air Quality El ement and a Climate Action Plan for Riverside
County, this section assesses the potential impacts of GHG emissions that could result from the
cumulative build-out potential of the Wine Country Community Plan and new d evelopments
authorized pursuant to the plans and policies of the Wine Country Community Plan (proposed
Project).
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that Lead Ag encies inform decision
makers and the public regarding the following: potential signifi cant environmental effects of
proposed projects; feasible ways that environmental damage can b e avoided or reduced
through the use of fea sible mitigation measures and/or p roject alternatives; and the reasons
why the Lead Agency approved a project if significant environmental effects are involved (CEQA
Guidelines 15002). CEQA also requires Lea d Agencies to evaluate potential e nvironmental
effects based to the fullest extent possible o n scientific and factual data (CEQA Guidelines
15064[b]). A determination of whether or n ot a parti cular environmental impact will be
significant must be b ased on substantial evidence, which inclu des facts, reasonable
assumptions predicated upon facts, and ex pert opinion supported by facts (CEQA Guidelines
15064f[5]).
Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan EIR
The County has prepared an Environmental Impact Rep ort (EIR No. 524) assessing th e
potential direct and in direct impacts result ing from the Temecula Valley Wine Country
Community Plan. The draft EIR an alyzed GHG impacts due to the construction an d operation
of public an d private improvements, such a s the proposed trails ne twork, roundabouts, and
various implementing projects (resi dences, wineries, resorts, equestrian facilities, etc.) to be
developed in accordance with the Community Plan. This EIR is programmatic in nature, and
may not provide suffici ent CEQA review for a specif ic implementing project. To the degree
feasible, some individual projects will be allowed to tier off the anal ysis contained in the EIR
thereby streamlining the CEQA process.
Thresholds
California law provides that climate change is an environmental effect subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Amendments to the State CEQA Guidelines adopted i n
February 2010 require lead agencie s to consider the adverse effects of a projects cumulative
contribution to greenhouse gas ( GHG) emissions on the environment and determine if a
projects climate change impact may be significant. As amended, CEQA encou rages lead
agencies to estimate the amount of GHG e missions resulting from a d evelopment project, but
also state t hat a lead agency retains the discretion to require a qualitative anal ysis. (State
CEQA Guideline, 15064.4.) The State CEQA Guidelines provide that signifi cance thresholds
may be qu antitative, qualitative, or in the form of performance-based standards. Various

agencies, including the California Air Resources Control Board (CARB), the Governors Office
of Planning and Research, and the South Coa st Air Quality Management District, have been
developing and drafting standards and guidelines for determining the cumulative significance of
a projects GHG e missions on global climate change. The deve lopment, adoption, and
application of GHG significance thresholds is in its infancy - there is currently no single accepted
industry practice or methodology for analyzing GHG impacts.
The County has determined that there are thr ee appropriate numeric thresholds to determine
significance of the proposed Project. Specifically, GHG emissions were compared to th e
following three thresholds:
Mass Emissions. A threshold of 3,000 MT CO2e per year is ado pted from the
recommended SCAQMDs Interim Thresholds document for commercial, residential ,
mixed use, and industri al development project s; projects b elow this th reshold are
considered less than significant.
Per Capita Average Emissions. A threshold of 4.1 MT per year per person, adopted
from the SCAQMD effici ency based standard, is most appl icable to larger projects,
such as su bdivisions and other projects of potential regional infl uence. The
threshold is calculated on an emission rate per population or employee (service
population) projected for Year 2035; developments which achieve emissions below
this threshold are considered less than significant.
Reductions Consistent with State Goals. A th reshold of 28.5% below Business As
Usual (BAU) emissions from future development projects. Project-specific emissions
shall be calculated and compared to similar hypothetical develo pment; if a n
implementing project achieves a re duction of at least 28.5% with incorporation of
mandatory and voluntary measures, it is considered less than significant.
Results of the GHG Study
The Wine Country Community Plan EIR analyzed GHG impacts resulting from full build-out and
operation of all impleme nting projects assumed in the Co mmunity Plan and proposed zoning.
Analysis included const ruction emissions fr om individual projects an d operational emission s
from mobile sources (visitors, empl oyees) and stationary sources (wine production, agricultural
uses).
The findings of the GHG analysis conducted for EIR No. 524 are as follows:
Construction of imple menting projects w ould result in temporary and incremental
increases in GHG emissions. Construction of multiple concurrent implementing projects
could result in GHG emissions in excess of annual mass emis sion significance
thresholds. However, SCAQMD recommen ds that construction emissions from
individual Implementing Projects be amortized and si gnificance be assessed in
conjunction with long-term operational GHG emissions.

Community Plan Level Emissions Reduction Strategies
The Temecula Valley Wine Country Co mmunity Plan proposes a nu mber of strategies at
regional level to the Southwest Area Plan (SW AP) that reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions
through design features that are anticipated to reduce vehicle miles travelled.
a. Integrated Trails Network (Non-motorized Transportation including Pedestrian,
Bike and Equestrian trails)
The County of Riverside contains multi-purpose trails that accommodate hikers, bi cyclists, and
equestrian users as an integral part of the Cou nty's circulation system. These facili ties serve
both as a means of c onnecting the unique communities and activity centers th roughout the
County and as a means of facilitating modes of transportation with no emission of air pollutants
and GHGs. Within the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP), a network of trails is planned for the Wine
Country region to provi de pedestrians, visitors , equestrians, and bicyclist s with alternative
modes of tr avel and while providing attractive recreational opportunities. However, it does not
connect all the existing wineries and other touri st destinations, such as Lake Skin ner and Vail
Lake, through equestrian and multi-purpose trail s system. A Trails Sub-committee worked with
the County Regional Parks and Open Space District and Planning Staff in the development of a
trails network that was more conducive to this regions destination places and users needs. As
a result of their work-effort, Figure 8 (Trails and Bikeway Syste m Map) of the SWAP was
revised through GPA No. 1077 and the following policy was added to the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area.

limited to, regional trails, combination trails, bike paths, open space trails, historic
trails, etc.
b. Roundabouts
Through the Wine Country Co mmunity Plan process, fiv e
roundabouts are proposed along Rancho California Roa d to
maintain rural chara cter of thi s region while allowing efficient
traffic calming and volume capacity. The roundabout at Rancho
California Road and Anza Road will be the first of five
roundabouts located at La Serena Way, Calle Contento Road,
Monte De Oro Road and Glenoaks Road. These roundabouts will
allow vehicular, equestrian, bicycl e and ped estrian traffic to
interact through the intersection more efficiently and safely while
keeping its natural wine county landscape. The roundabout will
accommodate the estimated 41,700 of dai ly vehicular traffic and
a peak hour vehicular traffic of over 4000.
c. Fair Share and Phasing Assessment
Through the Community Plan proce ss, the County has developed a tra ffic impact fee program
specifically to ensure timely construction of transportation improvements as outlined in the Wine
Country Fair Share and Phasing Assessment. T his program will coll ect fair share contributions
toward improvements within the Wine Country Policy Area and within the City of Temecula, and
the County will enter into an agreement with the City of T emecula to implement the identif ied
improvements. Additionally, implementing projects within the Wine Country Policy Area will be required
to prepare a focused traffic study that will assess the following to ensure consistency:
Trip generation comparison to estimates assumed in the WCP assessment
Parking assessment
Site access and on-site circulation assessment
Interaction of driveways with adjacent intersections (if appropriate)
Additional assessment deemed appropriate by the County of Riversid e Transportation
Department
In addition, EIR No. 524 include s the followi ng mitigation measures to mitigate air quality
impacts that assist the County in achieving the GHG reduction goals as well:
AQ-1 The County shall require new commercial and industrial implementing projects t o
develop a voluntary trip reductio n program that promotes commuter-choices,
employer transportation management, guaranteed rid e home programs and
commuter assistance and outreach-type programs intended to reduce commuter
vehicle miles traveled. The program shall be submitted as part of discretionary
review applications, and in place prior to Certificate of Occupancy.

Page15

AQ-2 The County shall condition all implementing projects to implement that Trails and
Bikeways Systems map (SWAP Figure 8) of the Project. This map is more conducive
to this regions destination places and multiple users (bikers, equestrian,
pedestrians, visitors, etc.) needs. Hence, changing the focus of land use from
automobile-centered transportation would result in a reduction in vehicle miles
traveled.
AQ-3 In addition, the County shall require implementing projects to incorporate bicycle
parking areas and horse hitching posts where applicable.
AQ-4 The County shall require implementing projects to incorporate a comprehensive
parking program for private parking lots where applicable, to promote ultra-low or
zero emission vehicle parking; provide larger parking spaces that can accommodate
vans and limousines; include adequate passenger waiting/loading areas; and provide
safe pedestrian/equestrian pathways through parking areas.
AQ-5 The County shall promote the exp anded use of renewable fuel and low-emission
vehicles within implementing projects. Implementing projects shall earn points in th e
GHG Mitigation Workbook Option Tables by making low-emissions or electric vehicle
use more accessible by including o ne or both of the following project components:
provide preferential par king for ul tra-low emission, zero-e mission, and alternative-
fuel vehicles; and provide electric vehicle charging stations within the development.
AQ-6 The County shall require implementing projects to prohibit idling of on and off-road
heavy duty diesel vehicles for more than five minutes. This measure shall be
implemented by new commercial and industrial project s with loading docks or
delivery trucks. Such pr ojects shall be required to post signage at all loading docks
and/or delivery areas directing drive rs to shut down their trucks after five minutes of
idle time. Also, employers who o wn and operate truck fl eets shall be required to
inform their drivers of the anti-idling policy.
AQ-7 The County shall work with the Winegrow ers Association and thei r partners to
promote alternative modes of transportation, such as shuttles, cable-cars, trolley, etc.
In addition, where feasible, the County shall work with the local transit provider
RTA by adding or modifying existing transit service to enhance service near the
Project site. This will encourage the use of transit and therefore reduce vehicle miles
traveled (VMT). Unincorporated Riverside County hosts one Metrolink transit station;
the County shall collaborate with in the neighboring citie s to expand connections t o
this station as well as other Metrolink station s which will increase ridership and
decrease vehicle miles traveled (VMT).

Implementing Project Level Emissions Reduction Strategies


In addition to the strategies being implemented on a regional basis, the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area co ntains the following polic y to require that the implementing projects
achieve a reduction in GHG emissions.
SWAP 1.9 Pending adoption of an updated Air Quality Element and Climate Action Plan (CAP),
ensure that new development selects greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction measures
from the Option Tables to achieve the Countys GHG emission reduction thresholds
as set forth in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Workbook (workbook). Alternatively,
new developments may utilize other reduction mechanisms to achieve reduction
thresholds as prescribe in the workbook.
The County has deter mined that no analysis of GHG e missions is required for the followi ng
types of implementing projects be cause they will not result in any potentially significant
cumulative impact on global climate change:
Plot Plans that are CEQA exempt and not circulated and which meet the criteri a
of subdivision (a)(1) of Section 18.30 of Riverside County Ordinance 348.
Landscaping Plans pursuant to, and consistent with, the pr ovisions of Riverside
County Ordinance 859
Accessory Structures
Cellular Towers
Lot Line Adjustments
Any Activity Statutorily Exempt from CEQA
Any Activity Categorically Exempt fr om CEQA for which an Exception in State
CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 Does Not Apply
Projects not defined above, are th e projects or development activities that coul d potentially
create a cumulatively significant impact on global climate change. Those projects could elect to
utilize one of the following two options to achieve their fair share of GHG reductions.
Option Tables for Achieving GHG Reductions
The County of Riversid e has devel oped option tables to a ssist in the analysis of GHGs for
individual projects tiering off of the Wine Country Co mmunity Plan EIR, The option tables were
developed based on AB 32 targets and contain measures to reduce GHG e missions at least
28.5% below Business As Usual (BAU) emissions. Individu al projects have the option to use
these option tables in or der to demonstrate that GHG emissions from the project ar e less than
significant. The GHG reduction measures co ntained in t he option table are assi gned points.

Projects which implement enough r eduction measures and achieve a 100/70 point rating ar e
considered to be consistent with the Countys GHG reduction goals for the Wine Country region.
Two versions of the Opti on Table have been developed to assist the proj ect project proponents
of these pr ojects, one for residential projects and one for commercial projects. The Option
Tables are included in Appendix A of this workbook. As noted above the County has developed
a list of spe cific mitigation strategies applicable to certain i mplementing projects. The Option
Tables provide a menu of additional options that both insures consi stency in implementation of
the measures and flexibility on how future development projects will achieve an overall
reduction of GHG emissions, consistent with the reduction target established by the County in
the Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan EIR.
Each Option Table assigns points for specific GHG reducing strategy incorporated into a project
whether by regulation, statute, or policy, as mitigation or a project design feature (collectively
referred to as feature). The point values co rrespond to the minimum emissions reduction
expected from each feature, includ ing those mandated as mitigation measures in t he countys
EIR No. 524 and by CALGreen Building Codes. The menu of features allo ws maximum
flexibility and options for how development projects can implement the GHG reducti on
measures. Residential projects in the SWAP that garner at least 70 points will be consistent
with the States overall GHG reduction goals. Co mmercial projects will need to garner at least
100 points. As such, those projects that garner the minimum specified points or greater would
not require quantification of project specific GHG emissions. Consi stent with CEQA Guidelines,
such projects would be determined to have a less than significant individual and cumulative
impact for GHG emissions.
Mixed use projects p rovide additional oppo rtunities to reduce e missions by combining
complimentary land uses in a manner that can r educe vehicle trips. Mixed use projects al so
have the potential to complement energy efficient infra structure in a way that reduces
emissions. For mixed use projects f ill out both Option Table 1 and Ta ble 2, but proportion the
points identical to the proportioning of the mix of uses. As an example, a mixed use project that
is 50% commercial uses and 50% residential uses will show point f or each assigned point
value in Table 1 and Table 2. Add the points fro m both tables. Mixed use projects that garner at
least 100 points will be consistent with the reduction quantities in the Countys GHG Plan and
are considered less than significant for GHG emissions.
Other Mechanisms for Achieving GHG Reductions
Those projects that do not garnish the minimum points using the Option Table s discussed
above (and presented in Append ix A) will requir e quantification of project specific GHG
emissions and will need to provid e mitigation measures to reduce GHG e missions at least
28.5% below Business As Usual (BAU) emissions.
A numerical analysis of GHG emissions and a discussion of impacts on global climate change is
required for Residential and/or Co mmercial projects, as d escribed below, and also for a ny
T Te em me ec cu ul la a V Va al ll le ey y W Wi in ne e C Co ou un nt tr ry y

mixed use projects involving more than one type of use. This stud y is also required for
discretionary Agricultural projects.
1. The GHG study mu st quantify the GHG emissions for the project, and must also
include, at a minimu m, an analysis of GHG e missions for each type of GHG emission
identified in California Health & Safety Code 38505 for construction impacts, if any, and
operational impacts, if any.
a. GHGs to which this section applies include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous
oxide, hydro-fluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride and nitrogen
trifluoride, per Health and Safety Code 38505 and any amendments thereto.
b. Analysis of GHGs must not only quantify e missions but also discu ss their
relative potential to affect global cl imate change. For exa mple, methane has a
global warming potential many times that of carbon dioxide, such that a give n
quantity of methane may have an equal or g reater effect on global climate
change than a lesser amount of carbon dioxide.
c. In quantifying GHG emissions, the analysis must address:
i) For construction: The total amount of GHGs e mitted by all construct ion
activities including, but not limited to, equipment and machinery usage,
energy usage, vehicle miles tra veled by constructi on employees,
emissions from architectural coati ngs, emissions from p aving or ro ad
construction activities, and other reasonably fore-seeable emissions.
ii) For oper ations: The total amount of GHGs emitted by all operatio nal
activities per year including, but not limited to, emissions from use of
electricity, use of natura l gas, and o ther energy consumption, emissions
resulting from water demand, vehicular emissio ns, and other reasonably
foreseeable emissions.
iii) For purposes of subdivisions 1 and 2, above, a rule of reason shall
apply requiring only tho se emissions that are reasonably foreseeable to
be quantified. If a parti cular emission is specu lative, the analysis shal l
discuss the issue quali tatively and explain the reasons why any furth er
analysis would be speculative and then conclude the analysis.
2. The GHG study must describe and analyze feasible mitigation measures for any
potentially significant GHG emissions. All feasible mitigation measures must be adopted
for potentially significant impacts. The types of mitigation measures that may be
considered and shall be imposed, if feasible, depend on the type o f project that is
proposed. A demonstration by the p roject applicant that the project has reduced GHG
emissions by 28.5% or more below a business

In connection with any of the above categories of projects, the Coun ty Planning Department
may impose any or all of the following Conditions of Approval to further reduce GHG emissions:
Use energy-efficient designs such a s those found in the Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Ratings and/or comply with Title 24,
Part 11, the California Green Building Standards Code.
Incorporate public transit into project design through siting, location, and transit links.
Include vehicle-reduction measures through carpooling, public transit incentives, and
linkages or electric shuttle services to public transit as well as, to the extent possible,
local and regional pedestrian and bike trails.
Retrofit the building for energy efficient purposes.
Use energy-efficient appliances and office equipment (e.g., Energy Star compliant).
Implement waste reduction and recycling measures.
Incorporate on-site renewable energy production (i.e., solar installations on rooftops),
and/or waste heat capt ure (for industrial projects to provide process and/or building
heat), and/or water reuse.
Install direct gas use or electricity projects to capture and use emitted methane
(applies to landfill projects).
Promote mixed-use, compact, and higher-density devel opment to reduce trip
distance, promote alternatives to vehicle travel, and promote efficiency in delivery of
services and goods (applies to planning documents).

INTRODUCTION

The physical character of our communities cannot be aivorcea from the values they respect. Sooner or later,
these values manifest themselves in how our aevelopment aecisions are maae ana how those aecisions shape
our communities. Where our values ana actions are synchroni:ea, our communities prosper, where they are
in conflict, so are the communities.
(Riverside County Integrated Plan, 2002)
The Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area is a unique comm unity oI Riverside County that oIIers
boutique wine country embedded within rural and equestrian character oI the southwestern Riverside
County. Approximately IiIty wineries and other smaller wine operations, p roduce award-winning premium
quality wines, made possible by a uni que microclimate and well-drained decom posed granite soils oI this
region. In addition, this area oIIers rural liIestyle, horseback riding trails, stables and other equestrian
amenities within the Valle de los Caballos community. It is with much pride in their ranches and horses
that some oI the equestrian I acilities hold national and international competition events. The Temecula
Valley Wine Country Policy Area Design Guidelines (hereinaIter 'Guidelines) are intended to encourag e
rural type oI developm ents surrounded by large vineyards and equestrian Iacilities that enhance the
winemaking, equestrian and rural residential atmosphere oI the policy area.

These guidelines are provided to guide those propert y owners and project proponents that are submitting
development applications to the County Planning Department. These guidelines are generalized statem ents,
alternatives or illustrations oI what is expected a nd encouraged Ior developm ents within the policy area.
Upon approval, these guidelines will be applicable to all development proposals Ior a dwelling unit,
subdivision, winery, equestrian Iacility, and/or incidental commercial Iacility unless ot herwise speciIied in
the Iollowing sections. Depending upon the site characteristics and nature oI the pro posal, the Pl anning
Director will determine the degree oI compliance to these guidelines.

A. SITE DESIGN AND PLANNING.

The intent oI this section is to ensure that unique s ite characteristics, such as natural topography, soil quality,
drainage patterns, scenic vistas etc. ar e considered; that the created buildin g pads, roads or drivewa ys are
blended into the natural terrain; and t hat any physical or visual impact is mitigated through site de sign and
planning.

1. All buildings, building pads, roads, driveways, and hardscape should be located in existing disturbed
areas and the least environmentally sensitive location, to minimize their impacts on natural terrain oI
the project site.


Do this Dont do this
COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE
T TE EM ME EC CU UL LA A V VA AL LL LE EY Y W WI IN NE E C CO OU UN NT TR RY Y D DE ES SI IG GN N G GU UI ID DE EL LI IN NE ES S
Page 2

2. All buildings, building pads, roads, driveways, and hardscape should, to the Iullest extent practicable,
Iollow and utilize the natural contours oI the land to minimize disturbance.


Do this Dont do this
3. Any increase in runoII resulting Irom a site development should be directed away Irom any
neighboring properties, into a newly improved street or public right-oI-way that is designated to carry
surIace drainage run-oII.
4. Mass grading should be avoided; however, iI grading is necessary , contoured slopes or rounded
slopes should be manuIactured.











5. Graded slopes and/or building pads should provide a variet y oI both slope percentages and slope
direction in a three-dimensional undulating pattern that is similar to the existing natural terrain rather
than leIt at a constant an gle and direction, which creates an unnatural and manuIactured appearance
Ior the site.

Sharp angles appear unnatural

6. Graded slopes and/or building pads should be similar to the natural slopes oI the site and the angle oI
any exposed slope shoul d gradually transition to t he angle oI the natural slope to create a natural
look.

Do this Dont do this


7. Graded slopes and/or building pads leIt by cu t and Iill operations should be given a rounded
appearance (in plan and i n elevation) that closely resembles the natural contours and landIorm oI the
project site.

Do this Dont do this

8. Graded slopes and/or building pads should not be allowed within IiIty Ieet (50`) oI a natural peak or
knoll.

9. The vertical distance oI a ny graded slope should not exceed IiIteen Ieet (15` ) at a 3:1 ra tio and ten
Ieet (10`) at a 2:1 ratio Irom the toe oI the slope to the top oI the slope.

10. A buIIer zone should be provided between building pads and viney ards and equestrian lands Ior an
easy transition Irom built areas to open spaces.


11. Due to their impact on natural terrain, oII-highway vehicles shall not be operated on commercial or
non-commercial basis within any portion oI the project site within the policy area.

B. ARCHITECTURE
The intent oI this section is to ensure that the visual impacts oI proposed development is mitigated through
architecture and building m assing by com patible architectural styles, by varied rooI-plains, by terraced
building pad, or by encouraging architectural elements.

1. All new developments along Rancho CaliIornia Road, and to a sm aller degree, De Portola Road,
should Iollow streetscapes as identiIied in the Design Guidelines and Signage Program (please reIer
to Appendix A).
2. All ancillary structures and incidental comm ercial uses should Iollow the architectural sty le oI the
primary use oI the site (e.g. dwelling unit or winery or equestrian Iacility).
3. Exposed metal surIaces, contrasting color sche mes, chain link Iences, as well as mirrored glass
should be prohibited, especially when they are visible Irom public view.
4. All buildings and their p ads should be designed t o conIorm to the natural topograph y and natural
contours oI the site. Their constructio n and conIiguration should use alternative techniques such as
split-level and terraced building pads rather than single level mass graded pads.
Building and pad that conform to natural terrain

COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE
T TE EM ME EC CU UL LA A V VA AL LL LE EY Y W WI IN NE E C CO OU UN NT TR RY Y D DE ES SI IG GN N G GU UI ID DE EL LI IN NE ES S
Page 5

5. All buildings should be designed to minimize mass and volume. Architectural elements that increase
visual prominence such as two-storied entries, la rge glass do ors and windows, turrets, and large
chimneys should be avoided; however, architectural elements that emphasize horizontal planes, such
as overhangs, projections, alcoves, varied rooI-plains, and building oIIsets should be used.






Do this Dont do this


6. All buildings should use material and color o I natural or earthen tones. A variety oI materials,
textures, and architectural details compatible with winemaking or equestrian theme should be used to
mitigate the visual impacts oI building mass.

Compatible color, architecture and material

7. The slope oI the main rooI Ior all primary buildings (dwell ing units or wineries or equestrian
Iacilities) should generally be oriented in the same direction as the natural slope oI the terrain.
Do this Dont do this

8. All building elevations and rooIlines should be br oken into smaller building elements to reIlect the
natural landIorm oI the site. No residential rooIline should extend Iorty Ieet (40`) horizontally
without an interruption or change in plane or direction.
COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE
T TE EM ME EC CU UL LA A V VA AL LL LE EY Y W WI IN NE E C CO OU UN NT TR RY Y D DE ES SI IG GN N G GU UI ID DE EL LI IN NE ES S
Page 6
Roof forms should be kept small and reflect the surrounding

9. Landscaping Ior any project should careIully select plants that assure that the vineyards or equestrian
operations are not impacted due to t he invasion oI urban exotics (please reIer to Ordinance 859:
Water EIIicient Landscape Requirements Ordinance).
10. Arbors, trellises, or gazebos should be allowed in conjunction with a dwelling unit or a winery iI they
do not exceed ten Ieet (10`) in height, Iorty Ieet (40`) in length, and ten percent (10) oI the building
pad.
11. Fencing should be encouraged only around the building pads to maintain the open and rural character
oI the wine country. II Iencing on the perimeter oI a property is desired, it should be compatible with
the architectural style oI the primary use and wine country atmosphere.
12. The height oI any Ience and/or wall should not exceed Iour Ieet (4` ) except Ior the swimm ing pool
Iences and retaining walls.







13. All exterior lighting Iixtures should b e directed downward and properly aimed on the targeted areas
to maximize their eIIectiveness and minimize the total number oI lighting Iixtures.


Lighting should be directed downward Lighting should not illuminate large areas

C. SPECIAL OCCASION FACILITIES
1. All residential subdivisions shall be conditioned to provide a Noise Disclosure Notice to prospective
property buyers inIorming them about their noise exposure in the Wine Country. This notice should
identiIy all nearb y properties that may be a source oI periodic noise Irom the ou tdoor special
occasion Iacilities.


COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE
T TE EM ME EC CU UL LA A V VA AL LL LE EY Y W WI IN NE E C CO OU UN NT TR RY Y D DE ES SI IG GN N G GU UI ID DE EL LI IN NE ES S
Page 7

2. All indoor or outdoor special occasion Iacilities should be located and oriented away Irom
neighboring residential units.

3. All indoor special occasion Iacilities should incorporate architectural solutions that reduce noise
emitted Irom the events on a case-by-case basis as determined by the Planning and the OIIice oI
Industrial Hygiene Department. For noise management, locate special event Iacilities and other
noise emitters away Irom neighboring residential units.

4. The Planning Department may require a Noise Management Plan on a case-by-case basis. This plan
shall be in conIormance with the Cou nty Ordinance No. 847 and provisions oI the County General
Plan. The Noise Management Plan shall include:
a) The number oI outdoor events per year, event dates, and hours oI operation.
b) A Noise Report to determine appropriate mitigation measures Ior stationary noise sources.
c) Noise Disclosure Notice to property owners within a determined proximity oI the Iacility.

WINE COUNTRY ZONES (WC)
SECTION 14.90. INTENT. The Wine Country Zones are established to implement the

on Figure 4a attached hereto. The purpose of these zones is to encourage agricultural cultivation,
vineyards, wineries, equestrian uses, preserve the wine-making atmosphere, estate living, equestrian life-
style, and protect this area and its residents from incompatible uses which could result in reduced
agricultural productivity and increased urbanization within the policy area. Incidental commercial uses,
such as winery operations and equestrian establishments shall be authorized only when they are
secondary, and directly related, to the agricultural or equestrian operations. The intent of allowing the
incidental commercial uses is to provide economic viability to the principal agricultural or equestrian
operations.

have the following meanings:
a. BED AND BREAKFAST INN. A dwelling unit or other facility with 10 or fewer
guest rooms, which provides lodging and breakfast for temporary overnight
occupants in return for compensation. In addition to a main kitchen, a Bed and

County of Riverside General Plan
Proposed Southwest Area Plan GPA No. 1077 November 2011 DRAFT

Policy Areas
policy area is a portion of an area plan that contains special or unique
characteristics that merit detailed attention and focused policies. The
location and boundaries for the Policy Areas in the Southwest planning
area are shown on Figure 4, Policy Areas, and are described in detail
below.

POLICY AREAS

Eleven Twelve policy areas are designated within the Southwest Area Plan.
They are important locales that have special significance to the residents of this
part of the County. Many of these policies derive from citizen involvement over
a period of decades in planning for the future of this area. In some ways, these
policies are even more critical to the sustained character of the Southwest
planning area than some of the basic land use policies because they reflect
deeply held beliefs about the kind of place this is and should remain. The
boundaries of these policy areas shown on the Policy Area Map are approximate
and may be interpreted more precisely as decisions are called for in these areas.
This flexibility, then, calls for considerable sensitivity in determining where
conditions related to the policies actually exist, once a focused analysis is
undertaken on a proposed project.

Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area

The Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area is located easterly of the City of
Temecula and westerly of Vail Lake. This region encompasses one of the most
important agricultural lands in the County. The many wineries and equestrian
uses here provide a significant tourist attraction to the region, which in turn
provides a continual economic benefit to the surrounding businesses. In
addition, the Temecula Valley Wine Country area is an important part of the
character of the Southwest Area Plan and has become ingrained in the culture
of the surrounding communities.

Three districts have been established for this policy area Winery, Equestrian
and Residential to ensure long-term viability of the wine industry while
protecting the communitys equestrian rural lifestyle. The overarching policies
for this region promote a strong identity for the Temecula Valley Wine Country.
Additional policies within each district provide for complimentary uses distinct
to the delineated areas. These policies protect against the location of activities
that are incompatible with existing residential and equestrian uses, which could
lead to land use conflicts in the future. These policies also establish a
framework for the implementing Wine Country (WC) Zones and Design
Guidelines, which have been established to further promote and preserve the
distinctive character of this unique area. The following policies are applicable
to the Temecula Valley Wine County Policy Area:

SWAP 1.1 Require boundary changes to the Temecula Valley Wine Country
Policy Area to be subject to the Foundation Component
Amendment process unless county-initiated amendment.

SWAP 1.2 Maintain distinct characters of the Winery, Equestrian, and
Residential Districts through implementing zones to promote
harmonious coexistence of these uses.

County of Riverside General Plan
Proposed Southwest Area Plan GPA No. 1077 November 2011 DRAFT


SWAP 1.3 Permit wineries that maintain on site vineyards on 10 acres or
more provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail
wine sales are grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons
of wine annually.

SWAP 1.4 Permit limited commercial uses such as wineries, sampling rooms,
and retail wine sales establishments on a minimum lot size of ten
(10) acres to promote viticulture potential of this region.

SWAP 1.5 Require a density of ten (10) acres minimum for tentative approval
of residential tract and parcel maps after (adoption date)
regardless of the underlying land use designation except in the
Wine Country Residential District where a density of five (5)
acres minimum shall apply.

SWAP 1.6 Allow small-scale cottage inns or cottage industries. Encourage
agricultural operations, equestrian activities and vineyard
planting with such uses to reflect the unique character of this
Policy Area.

SWAP 1.7 Develop and implement an integrated trails network that carefully
considers equestrian uses, incidental commercial activities and
agricultural operations, and includes, but is not limited to,
regional trails, combination trails, bike paths, open space trails,
historic trails, etc.

SWAP 1.8 Pending adoption of an updated Air Quality Element and Climate
Action Plan (CAP), ensure that new development selects
greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction measures from the Option Tables
to achieve the Countys GHG emission reduction thresholds as set
forth in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Workbook (workbook).
Alternatively, new developments may utilize other reduction
mechanisms to achieve reduction thresholds as prescribe in the
workbook.

Wine Country Winery District

The Wine Country Winery District generally encompasses the area formally
recognized as the Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area and includes additional areas to
the east and south. The primary purpose of the Winery District is to promote the
establishment of additional commercial activities that support tourism while
ensuring long-term viability of the wine industry. The secondary purpose of the
Winery District is to recognize, and allow the expansion of, existing wineries
that are integral part of the Temecula Valley Wine Country economy.

SWAP 1.9 Encourage new incidental commercial uses that promote tourist
related activities for the wine industry as described in the Wine
Country Winery (WC-W) Zone.

SWAP 1.10 Allow the (28) existing wineries shown on Figure 4a to expand as
described in the Wine Country Winery Existing (WC-WE) Zone.

SWAP 1.11 Allow incidental commercial uses such as special occasion
facilities, hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in
conjunction with wineries as defined in the implementing zones.

County of Riverside General Plan
Proposed Southwest Area Plan GPA No. 1077 November 2011 DRAFT


Wine Country Equestrian District

The Wine Country Equestrian District generally encompasses the area
formerly recognized as the Valle de los Caballos Policy Area. The purpose of
the Equestrian District is to protect and promote equestrian uses in the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to make this a unique Wine Country
in the nation.

SWAP 1.12 Encourage equestrian establishments that promote the equestrian
lifestyle as described in the Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E)
Zone.

SWAP 1.13 Permit incidental commercial uses such as western stores, polo
grounds, or horse racing tracks, petting zoos, event grounds, horse
auction facilities, horse show facilities, animal hospitals,
restaurants, delicatessens, and special occasion facilities in
conjunction with commercial equestrian establishments on lots
larger than 10 acres to encourage equestrian tourism in this
community.

Wine Country Residential District

The Wine Country Residential District is located in the central and
northeastern portions of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. The
purpose of the Residential District is to encourage permanent estate lot
residential stock in this region to balance the tourism related activities.

SWAP 1.14 Encourage residential development that complements the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area as described in the
Wine Country Residential (WC-R) Zone.

SWAP 1.15 Encourage tentative approval of residential tract and parcel maps
to cluster development in conjunction with on-site vineyards or
equestrian land provided that the overall project density yield does
not exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. While the lot sizes
in a clustered development may vary, require a minimum lot size of
1 acre, with at least 75% of the project area permanently set-aside
as vineyards or equestrian land.


Citrus/Vineyard

The Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area, which applies to lands located easterly of the
City of Temecula northerly and southerly of Rancho California Road, has been
established as a distinct area to ensure the continuation of the rural lifestyle and
wine production in southwestern Riverside County. This policy area
encompasses one of the most important agricultural lands in the County. The
many wineries here provide a significant tourist attraction to the region, which
in turn provides a continual economic benefit to the surrounding businesses. Not
only that, the Citrus/Vineyard area also is an important part of the character of
the Southwest planning area and has become ingrained in the Aculture@ of the
surrounding communities. The Citrus/Vineyard policies also protect against the
location of uses that are incompatible with agricultural uses and which could
lead to conflicts with adjacent uses. The following policies are reflected in the
provisions of the Citrus/Vineyard (C/V) Zone, which was established to
preserve the distinctive character of this area.


Equestrian Establishment. An
equestrian facility where
horses are kept, sheltered,
trained, nursed, or boarded in
return for compensation. An
equestrian establishment may
include enclosed stalls, horse-
shelters, horse-arena,
paddocks, pens, as well as
associated appurtenant
structures or buildings,
including but not limited to,
barns, tack sheds, washing
stations, hot walkers or other
horse exercise equipment
storage areas, horse training

County of Riverside General Plan
Proposed Southwest Area Plan GPA No. 1077 November 2011 DRAFT



Policies:

SWAP 1.1 Maintain a rural and agricultural character in the Citrus/ Vineyard
area through continued implementation of the C/V zone and
judicious use of the C-C/V zone. These zones help achieve the
desired character by requiring that commercial buildings, wineries,
citrus processing operations, and bed and breakfast inns be
designed in a Arural@ or Awine-country@ theme and by discouraging
curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and street lights.

SWAP 1.2 Require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new residential
tract maps and parcel maps.

SWAP 1.3 Encourage clustered developments in conjunction with onsite
provision of vineyards for new residential tract maps and parcel
maps where appropriate. In case of a clustered development, the
overall project density yield must not exceed one dwelling unit per
five (5) acres. While the lot sizes in a clustered development may
vary, require a minimum lot size of 1 acre, with at least 50% of the
project area set aside for permanent provision of vineyards

SWAP 1.4 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as retail
wine sales/sampling rooms, incidental gift sales, restaurants
excluding drive-through facilities, and delicatessens, in
conjunction with wineries on 10 acres or more provided that at
least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail
wine sales are grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons
of wine annually.

SWAP 1.5 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as bed
and breakfast inns on 5 acres or more, and country inns and special
occasion facilities on 10 acres or more, provided that at least 75%
of the project site is planted in vineyards.

SWAP 1.6 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as bed
and breakfast inns on 10 acres or more, country inns on 15 acres or
more, and hotels on 20 acres or more, in conjunction with wineries
provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail
wine sales are grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons
of wine annually.

Valle de los Caballos

This policy area is located easterly of the City of Temecula, and is very
generally bounded by Monte Verde Drive and Highway 79 South on the south,
Pauba Road and the Vail Lake area on the east, Linda Rosea Road on the north,
and Anza Road on the west. This is an area characterized by gently rolling hills
and equestrian, rural residential, and agricultural activities. Most of the land in
the area is in parcels of 10 acres or larger, which fosters a very low intensity,
rural lifestyle. In order to preserve opportunities to enjoy the type of rural


SWAP =Southwest Area Plan Policy

County of Riverside General Plan
Proposed Southwest Area Plan GPA No. 1077 November 2011 DRAFT

lifestyle offered in this area, it is appropriate to retain the area in 10-acre
minimum parcel sizes.

Policies:

SWAP 2.1 Require a 10-acre minimum lot size for residential development
within the Valle de los Caballos Policy Area, regardless of the
underlying land use designation.


*Renumber the SWAP policies accordingly.

SUPPLEMENTAL LAND USE PLANNING AREAS
The following provides the acreages for each Overlay and/or Policy Area within the Area Plan. Overlays and Policy Areas are
districts that contain unique standards tailored to a local geographic area. In some instances, these Overlays and Policy Areas alter
the allowable uses and maximum densities/intensities within the particular district. In these cases, the buildout potential resulting
from the application of the Overlays and Policy Areas has been accounted for in the Base Land Use Designations above. Please see
the Area Plan for a description of the unique features contained within each Overlay or Policy Area.

NOTES:
a.
Statistics reflect the midpoint for the theoretical range of build-out projections. Reference Appendix E of the General Plan for
assumptions and methodology.
b.
Overlay figures reflect the additional dwelling units, population and employment permissible under this category.
c.
It is assumed that Commercial Retail designation will buildout at 40% Commercial Retail and 60% Medium Density
Residential.
d.
The acreage for the Overlays and Policy Areas have not been included in the acreage totals to avoid double counting.

DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Chapter 4 Page C-1
NON-MOTORIZED TRANSPORTATION
A well-planned and built trail system can provide for an improved quality of life
for Riverside County residents by providing a recreational amenity and by
providing a viable alternative to the automobile. Ideally, this system would
connect community centers, residential neighborhoods, recreational amenities,
employment centers, schools, shopping areas, and activity areas public spaces,
and public transit. Providing a safe user environment can encourage utilization
of trails within commercial, office, and residential areas. Use of trails within
recreation and natural open-space areas can be encouraged through proper
signage and publicity.

Policies:

C 15.1 Implement a two-tiered system of trails, and later expand it into an
effective non-motorized transportation system.

C 15.2 Seek financing to implement an effective non-motorized
transportation system. This funding can include such potential
sources things as state and federal grants, County transportation
funds, in-lieu fees, special assessments, redevelopment agency
funds, parking meter revenues, other public and non-profit
organization funds, developer contributions, and other sources. (AI
36)

C 15.3 Develop a trail system which connects County parks and recreation
areas while providing links to open space areas, equestrian
communities, local municipalities, and regional recreational facilities
(including other regional trail systems), and ensure that the system
contains a variety of trail loops of varying classifications and
degrees of difficulty and length.

C 15.4 Periodically Rreview and update the Trails and Bikeways Plan
(Figure C-7) Regional Trail Map in accordance with the review
procedures and schedule of the General Plan, in order to ensure
assure its compatibility with the other elements components of the
County General Plan, and with the similar plans of agencies such as
Western Riverside County Council of Governments, Coachella
Valley Association of Governments, Riverside County
Transportation Commission, Regional Conservation Authority,
Riverside County Habitat Conservation Authority and all
jurisdictions within and abutting Riverside County.

C 15.5 Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
standards will be assured so as to make the trails system user-
friendly, as much as reasonably where feasible.

C 4.8 15.6 Provide, Encourage, where feasible, the construction of overpasses
or undercrossings where trails intersect arterials, urban arterials,
expressways, or freeways.



A parkway is located in, along, or
adjacent to a stream=s floodplain.
Ordinarily it extends the length of the
streambut may be broken into
segments. Road and trailside parks
are part of a parkway.

Regional Trails are designed to
connect parks and provide linkage
opportunities between open space
areas and regional recreation areas.

Community Trails create linkages
similar to region trails, but are local
serving.

County of Riverside General Plan
DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Page C-2 Chapter 4

Multipurpose Recreational Trails

The trails proposed for Riverside County are designed to serve several different
groups. They are intended for the use of equestrians, hikers, joggers, non-
motorized bikers, as well as the casual walker. Depending on where a the trail is
located and how it is designed and constructed will affect the type of use the
trail gets, but most all trails are open to a variety all of these uses.

Riverside County currently has one developed trail that it the Riverside County
Regional Park and Open Space maintains, the Santa Ana River Trail. The Santa
Ana River Trail is part of a planned regional trail extending across multiple
jurisdictions from the Pacific Ocean in Orange County to the San Bernardino
Mountains in San Bernardino County. Some communities have trails which are
built and are maintained by another entity such as a homeowners= association, a
community service area, or a local park and recreation district. These trails lack
connectivity to other parts of the County trail system, resulting in a fragmented
system. Providing connectivity between County trails and between County trails
and State and Federal trails, historic trails, and trails in other jurisdictions, will
be instrumental in creating a usable trail system.

The Riverside County Regional Park and Open Space District has prepared and
adopted a Trails Development Standards Policy Manual, which is anticipated to
be the District in all trails planning, construction, and maintenance activities.

Riverside County has four several types of recreational trails and in addition,
several sub-classifications, and other categories of trails, as described below:

Regional Trails - These are the main primary long distance trails within the
County, and are usually designed to provide linkages between communities,
regional parks, and open space areas. They are generally maintained and
operated by the Riverside County Regional Parks and Open Space District. They
are designed to eventually provide linkages between areas which could be quite
distant from each other. They are also designed to connect with trails in State
and Federal parks, forests, and recreational areas trails, as well as trails within
cities and other jurisdictions. Regional trails are designed to serve users needing
soft trail surfaces, including equestrians, pedestrians, joggers, and mountain
bikers. Regional trails will have a easement of 14 to 20 feet wide and a trail
width of 10 feet.

There are two types of Regional Trails. Regional Urban and Rural Trails are
the first type, and they primarily connect communities, parks, and open space
areas. They are built with 10 to 12 wide unpaved soft surfaces, and are
generally sited within 20 wide (width may be permitted to vary) easements.
Regional Urban and Rural Trails are usually intended to be maintained by the
Riverside County Regional Park and Open Space District, by the Transportation
Department through Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Districts, or by other
entities subject to approval by the County.

Regional Open Space Trails are intended for both open space areas
associated with private developments and for publicly and quasi-publicly
managed open space areas, where it is necessary to minimize both the impacts
of human usage on the landscape and the level of trail maintenance required.
These are generally existing trails, but some new trails may be built. These trails
have 2 to 4 wide unpaved surfaces, within easements that are typically 10

County of Riverside General Plan
DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Chapter 4 Page C-1
wide. Regional Open Space Trails are usually intended to be maintained by the
Riverside County Regional Park and Open Space District, or by public or quasi-
public entities that either already own the open space areas that contain or
would contain the trails, or have agreed with the County to accept open space
areas and trails within them for maintenance.

(See Figure C-7 8 for Regional Trails cross sections and details)

Community Trails - These trails are designed to link areas of a community to
the regional trail system and to link areas of a community with each other. Such
trails are typically maintained and operated by a local parks and recreation
district or other governmental entities empowered and funded to maintain trails.
Community Trails are designed for trail users preferring a soft trail surface,
including equestrians, pedestrians, joggers, and mountain bikers. Community
Trails will be sited within have an easements or portions of road right-of-ways
(ROWs) of 10 to up to 14 feet wide. and a trail width of 8 feet. See Figure C-8
for Community Trails cross sections and details.

In addition to multipurpose recreational trails, the Riverside County
Transportation Department also plans and/or implements a countywide system
of bikeways. A system map may be found in Figure C-7. Policies in this section
focus on the refinement of the current countywide trails plan and seek to expand
implementation of the trail system.

Historic Trails B These trails are designated historic routes that recognize the
rich history of Riverside County. The Historic Trails designated on the on the
Bikeways and Trails Plan, Figure C-7, include: The Juan Bautista de Anza
National Historic Trail, the Southern Immigrant Trail, the Pacific Crest National
Scenic Trail, the California Riding and Hiking Trail, and the Bradshaw Route
Trail. The Historic Trails routes designations are graphical representations of the
general location of these historic routes and do not necessarily represent a
planned Regional, or Community, or other type of existing or planned Trail. In
some cases, these trails have more detailed planning documents which describe
interpretive routes for autos and/or non-motorized modes of Transportation.
There generally are Regional or Community Trail designations that could more
or less either follow or parallel these routes, thus providing opportunities to
recognize the historic significance of these routes and affording the prospect of
developing interpretive centers and signage.

Non-County Public Lands Trails National Forest and BLM TrailsB Trails within
the San Bernardino and Cleveland National Forests, Joshua Tree National
Park, Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument, public lands
managed by the Bureau of Land Management, lands owned by the County of
Riverside, the Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority, the
Riverside County Habitat Conservation Agency, and other national, state, and
local public or private lands such as those owned by the Nature Conservancy,
Riverside Land Conservancy, and The Wildlands Conservancy, that are open to
public usage, National Forest and BLM Trails are also depicted on the Bikeways
and Trails Plan, Figure C-7. Such trails are managed and maintained by the
responsible - Federal, state, or other agencies. While the County has no
jurisdiction over such trails, they are shown on the County plan to indicate
connectivity. much as the trails within cities are shown.

Other Types of Trail Classifications: In order to accommodate local community
needs, some variances in purpose or design standards for certain local trails
may be appropriate. Trail plans shown in Design Guidelines documents adopted

See also the Land Use


Element, Circulation Section, for

additional policies

DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Page C-4 Chapter 4
by the County are types of localized trail classifications that may be appropriate
at the community-specific level.

Design Guidelines have been developed for several of the Countys
communities, and more may be adopted in the future. The Mecca, Thermal,
Vista Santa Rosa, Bermuda Dunes, Desert Edge, Lakeview/Nuevo, and
Temescal Valley Design Guidelines each contain some trail development
standards that are different from countywide trail standards, and that are
unique to those communities. These customized Design Guideline trail standards
were prepared with extensive local citizen input, and in close cooperation
between the County and special districts that would be involved in the
construction and/or maintenance of such trails.

Other, major trail corridors may have different types of designations along their
routes through Riverside County. For example, the Santa Ana River National
Recreation Trail contains components designated as Class I Bikeway, Regional
Trail, and Combination Trail in its course along the Santa Ana River, for the
most part along both sides of the river, connecting Riverside County to Orange
and San Bernardino Counties.

Policies:

C 16.1 Implement the County trail system as depicted in the Bikeways and
Trails Plan, Figure C-7. (AI 33)

C 16.2 Develop a multi-purpose recreational trail network with support
facilities which provide a linkage with regional facilities, and
require trailheads and staging areas that are equipped with adequate
parking, bicycle parking, restrooms, informative signage,
interpretive displays, maps, and rules of appropriate usage and
conduct on trails accessed from such facilities. (AI 35)

C 16.3 Require that trail alignments either provide access to or link scenic
corridors, schools, parks, bus stops, transit terminals, park and ride
commuter lots, and other natural areas and other areas of
concentrated public activity, where feasible.

a. Require that all development proposals located along a planned
trail or trails provide access to, dedicate trail easements or right-of-
way, and construct their fair share portion of the trails system.
Evaluate the locations of existing and proposed trails within and
adjacent to each development proposal and ensure that the
appropriate easements are established to preserve planned trail
alignments and trail heads.
a. Require that all specific plans and other large-scale
development proposals include trail networks as part of their
circulation systems, and that the trails connect with other
existing and planned trails, recreation areas, schools, and parks
near the development proposals.
i) b. Ensure that existing and new gated communities, and where
feasible, existing gated communities, do not preclude trails
accessible to the general public from traversing through their
boundaries.
c. Provide buffers between streets and trails, and between adjacent
residences and trails.
d. Make use of already available or already disturbed land where
possible for trail alignments.
b e. Require that existing and proposed trails within Riverside
County connect with those in other neighboring city, county,
state, and federal jurisdictional areas.

C 16.4 Identify all existing rights-of-way which have been obtained for trail
purposes through the land development process. (AI 33)
a. Once the above task has been accomplished, analyze the existing
rights of-way and determine the most expedient method for
connecting the parts.

C 16.5 Examine the use of public access utility easements for trail linkages
to the regional trails system and/or other open space areas. These
potential corridors include, but are not limited to, the rights-of-way
for:
a. water mains;
b. water storage project aqueducts;
c. irrigation canals;
d. flood control;
e. sewer lines; and
f. fiber optic cable lines,
g. gas lines,
h. electrical lines, and
i. fire roads, railroads, and bridges.

C 16.6 Adhere to the following trail-development guidelines when siting a
trail:
a. Permit urban trails to be located in or along transportation rights-
of-way in fee, utility corridors, and irrigation and flood control
waterways so as to mix uses, separate traffic and noise, and
provide more services at less cost in one corridor. Require,
where feasible, trails in urban areas to be located either outside

DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Chapter 4 Page C-1
of road rights-of-way or within road rights-of-way with
additional dedicated right-of-way in fee required, and/or co-
locate such trails in utility corridors, and adjacent to irrigation
and flood control waterways so as to mix uses, separate traffic
and noise, and provide more trail services at less cost in
(combined function corridors).
b. Secure separate rights-of-way for non-motorized trails when
physically, financially and legally feasible.
i) Where a separate right-of-way is not feasible, maintain
recreation trails within the County or Flood Control right-of-
way, where feasible.
c. Develop and implement Use trail design standards which will
minimize maintenance due to erosion or vandalism.
d. Maximize visibility and physical access to trails from
streets and other public lands.
e. Provide a trail surface material that is firm and unyielding to
minimize erosion and injuries.
d f. When a trail is to be reserved obtained through the development
approval process, base the precise trail alignments on the
physical characteristics of the property, assuring connectivity
through adjoining properties.
e g. Consider the use of abandoned rail lines as multipurpose Arail-
trails@ corridors through the Rails-to-Trails program. for
multi-purpose trails.
f h. Place all recreation trails a safe distances from the edges of
active aggregate mining operations and separate them by
physical barriers, such as fences, berms, and/or other effective
separation measures. i) Avoid placing a trail where it will cross
an active mined materials haul route.
g i. Install warning signs indicating the presence of a trail at
locations where regional or community trails cross public roads
with high amounts of traffic. Design and build trail crossings at
intersections with proper signs, signals, pavement markings,
crossing islands, and curb extensions to ensure safe crossings by
users. Install trail crossing signs at the intersections of trail
crossings with public roads to ensure safe crossings by users.
h j. Design and construct trails that properly account for Take into
consideration such issues as sensitive habitat areas, cultural,
flooding potentials, access to neighborhoods and open space,
safety, alternate land uses, and usefulness for both transportation
and recreation. when designing and constructing trails.
i k. Coordinate with other agencies and/or organizations (such as the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, Bureau
of Land Management, and the state Department of
Transportation) to encourage the development of multi-purpose
trails. Potential joint uses may include historic, cultural, and
environmental interpretation, access to fishing areas and other
recreational uses, opportunities for education, and access for the
disabled.
j l. Work with landowners to address concerns about privacy,
liability, security, and trail maintenance. (AI 3, 35, 36, 38, 39,
40, 41, 42).
m. Regional Urban, Regional Rural, and Regional Open Space
trails should be designed so as to be compatible with the
community contexts in which the trails are being sited.

County of Riverside General Plan
DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Page C-10 Chapter 4
n. Driveway crossings by trails should be designed and surfaced in
a manner compatible with multipurpose trails usage. Except for
local, neighborhood-serving trails that are not intended as
primary community linkages, select routes for trails that
minimize driveway crossings.
o. Benches, fencing, water fountains, trees and shading, landscape
buffers, rest stops, restrooms, and other trail-related amenities
shall be provided where appropriate.
p. All trails along roadways shall be appropriately signed to
identify safety hazards, and shall incorporate equestrian
crossing signals, mileage markers, and other safety features, as
appropriate.
q. Information about the Countys trail system shall be provided at
the Riverside County Park and Open Space District and online
in order to make the public aware of the Countys trail system.
r. Trails designed to accommodate equestrians shall not be sited
along sound walls, project boundary walls, and other walls that
effectively obstruct visibility beyond the edge of a trail.
s. All trail surfacing shall be appropriate to an array of users of
the trail. Soft-surfaced trails shall have smooth, firm, slip-
resistant surfacing so as to minimize foot and ankle injuries.
t. Use already available or disturbed land for trails wherever
possible for new or extended trails.
u. Use pervious pavement or bio-swales along paved trails to assist
in maintaining water quality.
v. Offer consultation to local Native American tribes for any
proposed trails under the mandates of SB18 Traditional
Tribal Places Law.

C 16.7 Require the installation (where appropriate and pursuant to County
standards) of the appropriate styles of fencing along trail alignments
that separate trails from road right-of-ways (ROWs), or where trails
are located within road ROWs, that provide adequate separation
from road traffic, in order to adequately provide for public safety.
Examples of such fence types include simulated wood post and rail
fencing constructed of PVC material, wood round post and rail, and
wood-textured concrete post and rail fencing. a simulated split rail
fence with 2 to 3 rails constructed of white PVC material separating
road rights of way from adjacent trail easements. (AI 3)
Bikeways

Riverside County=s bikeway system is included as part of the County=s
circulation system Trails and Bikeways Plan mapping. Planned bicycle routes
are shown on the Bikeways and Trails Plan, Figure C-7. The County uses three
types of bike path classifications:

Class I - Provides a completely separated right-of-way for the exclusive use of
bicycles and pedestrians with cross-flow minimized. The right-of-way for Class
I Bikeways may be substantial, separated from roadways by landscaped strips
or other barriers. In some cases, where appropriate, Class I Bikeways may be
designed and signed to also permit golf carts.

Class II - Provides a striped lane for one-way bike travel on a street or highway.
Class II Bikeways, or bike lanes, are intended for preferential use by bicycles,

County of Riverside General Plan
DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Chapter 4 Page C-1
and are provided for within the paved areas of roadways. Bike lane pavement
striping and other markings, and bikeway signs are intended to promote an
orderly flow of traffic by establishing demarcations between lanes designated
for bicycles and lanes designated for motor vehicles. Bike lanes are one-way
facilities that follow the flow of motor vehicle movement.

Class III Bikeways: Class III Bikeways, or bike routes, are intended to provide
continuity within the bikeways system, usually by connecting discontiguous
segments of Class I and Class II Bikeways. Bike routes are shared facilities,
either with motor vehicles on roads or with pedestrians on sidewalks, and
bicycle usage of the facilities is considered secondary. Bike routes are not
marked on pavement but are supported by signs.

Class I Bike Path/Regional Trail (Combination Trail) - This functions as a
regional connector to link all of the major bodies of water in Western Riverside
County and to provide the opportunity for long-distance users to take advantage
of this system for long one-way or loop type trips. This system may also take
advantage of existing or planned Class I Bike Paths, Regional Trails, and/or
Community Trails for several combinations of easements, connections, or links.
Bicycles are also allowed on regional and community trails, which allow all
types of non-motorized use. However, Class I bike paths, and Class II bike
lanes, and Class III signed bike routes are designed for bicycle use only. As with
non-motorized trails, a connected system of bikeways is needed to encourage
this alternative transportation method among County residents.

Combination Class 1 Bikeway /Regional Trails

Combination Class I Bikeway/Regional Trails (Combination Trails) function
as regional connectors linking together the urban and rural communities and
major water bodies and parks in the County and provide opportunities for long-
distance users to take advantage of this system for long one-way or loop-type
trips. This system also links together existing and planned Class I Bikeways,
Regional Trails, and other types of trails to enhance County residents access to
the trail system.

Combination Class 1 Bikeway/Regional Trails (also called Combination Trails)
include both a Class 1 Bikeway, with a 20 wide paved surface, marked for two-
way traffic, for use primarily by bicyclists and pedestrians, and a Regional
Urban and Rural Trail, with a 10 12 wide soft surface, for use primarily by
equestrians and pedestrians, located either in tandem on one side of a street,
river, or other major linear feature, or in split fashion, with one function
(Class 1 Bikeway) of the Combination Trail located on one side of the street or
other linear geographical feature, and the other type (Regional Urban or Rural
Trail) located on the other side of the street or linear feature.

Combination Trails generally require 30 wide easements where both
components of the trails are situated in tandem on one side of a street or linear
feature. Where the trail components are split along a street or other linear
feature, the easements required will generally be the same as for Class 1
Bikeways (generally 20 wide) and Regional Urban and Rural Trails (generally
20 wide) when built separately. Unless maintained by a County Service Area
(CSA) or a special parks district, Combination Trails are usually maintained by
the Riverside County Regional Park and Open Space District, or by the
Transportation Department through a Landscape and Lighting Maintenance
District.

County of Riverside General Plan

Page C-12 Chapter 4

See Figure C-8 for Combination Trails cross-sections and details.

Policies:

C 17.1 Develop Class I Bike Paths, Class II Bike Lanes and Class I Bike
Paths/Regional Trails (Combo Trails) as shown in the Trails Plan
(Figure C-7), to the design standards as outlined in the California
Department of Transportation Highway Design Manual, adopted
County Design Guidelines (for communities that have them), the
Riverside County Regional Park and Open Space Trails Standards
Manual, and other County Guidelines. (AI 34, 41)

C 17.2 Require bicycle access between proposed developments and other
parts of the County trail system through dedication of easements and
construction of bicycle access ways.

C 17.3 Ensure that the bikeway system incorporates the following:
a. Interconnection throughout and between of cities and
unincorporated communities;
b. Provision of lanes to specific destinations such as state or
county parks;
c. Provision for recreational bicycle riding and bicycle touring; and
d. Encouragement of bicycle commuting. Encouragement of golf
cart commuting within a community.
e. Connect bikeways to all urban transit centers and systems (bus
stops and Metrolink stations).
f. Provide bicycle parking at transit stops and park-and-ride lots.

C 17.4 Ensure that alternative modes of motorized transportation, such as
buses, trains, taxi cabs, etc., plan and provide for transportation of
recreational and commuting bicyclists and bicycles on public
transportation systems. Coordinate with all transit operators to
ensure that bicycle facilities are provided along and/or near all
transit routes, whenever feasible. New land developments shall be
required to provide bicycle facilities due to existing or future planned
transit routes.

Acquisition, Maintenance, and Funding of
Multipurpose Trails and Bikeways

The implementation of a usable trail network in Riverside County will require a
combination of several strategies including land acquisition, trail maintenance,
and funding for trails. The following policies identify actions which will enable
the County to facilitate the creation and upkeep of these valuable facilities.

Policies:

C 18.1 ACQUISITION (AI 33)
a. Promote public/private partnerships for trail acquisition.
b. Seek ways to build a trail system affordably, and seek partners
in doing so within a reasonable time frame, possibly in stages, to
serve all trail communities, and upgrade the system of
linkages/destinations.

County of Riverside General Plan
DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Chapter 4 Page C-1
b c. Determine which public and/or private agencies have existing
easements or existing, unused rights-of-way, which potentially
could be incorporated as trail linkages throughout Riverside
County. Such agencies may include the Riverside County Flood
Control and Water Conservation District, regional and local
parks districts and transportation agencies, various utility
companies/districts, and Railroad companies, leverage use
roads, dirt roads, as trails routes, to foster partnerships, get the
trails built and managed, etc.
c d. Evaluate the potential use of private-landowner tax credits for
acquiring necessary trail easements and/or rights-of-way. A
system such as this would allow a landowner to dedicate an
easement for trail purposes in exchange for having that portion
of the property assessed as open-space instead of a higher land-
use category.
e. Seek to connect existing cul-de-sacs to each other, and to trail
networks. In rare occasions, this may entail purchasing homes at
the ends of streets, constructing the connections, and reselling
the homes.
f. Wherever possible and to the extent consistent with overall trail
system objectives, use trail designs and locations that minimize
construction and maintenance costs.

C 18.2 MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE
a. Implement maintenance options such as the use of volunteers,
associations, or private landowner maintenance agreements,
and/or adopt-a-trail programs sponsored by various groups,
b. Implement methods to discourage unauthorized use of trails by
motorized vehicles, which may cause trail deterioration, create
an unsafe environment, and/or disrupt the enjoyment of the trails
by legitimate trail users. These methods may include the
installation of gates and motorcycle barriers, posting signs
prohibiting unauthorized activities, or implementing educational
programs to encourage the proper use of trails.
c. Research the potential for, and consider establishing a
countywide trail management entity that will facilitate the
acquisition of adequate funds for trail maintenance.
d. Reseach the potential for, and consider establishing a separate
agency within the County to manage and maintain the Countys
trails system. .
e. Use trail designs that remove or limit injury/safety liability
concerns.
f. Use trail designs that minimize trail maintenance costs.


County of Riverside General Plan
DRAFT Circulation Element- November 21, 2011


Page C-14 Chapter 4


C 18.3 FUNDING
a. Solicit all possible sources of funding to plan, acquire, and
construct recreational trails. Sources can include, but not be
limited to, development mitigation fees, private foundation grants,
and/or funds/assessments from local, regional, State, and Federal
government entities. (AI 36, 37)

b. Persuade local communities to finance their own community trail
systems through the use of special tax assessment districts. If
applicable, these districts should also provide adequate regulation
for the keeping of horses.

COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE PLANNING DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN


PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) was initiated by the County
Board of Supervisors in 2008 to ensure that the region develops in an orderly manner that
preserves Temecula Valleys viticulture potential and enhances its economic contribution to the
County over the long term. The purpose of this Project is to provide a blueprint for future growth
that ensures that future development activities will enhance, and not impede, the quality of life
for existing and future residents, while providing opportunities for continued preservation and
expansion of winery and equestrian operations. The Project has been developed to achieve the
following four objectives:

1. To preserve and enhance viticulture potential, rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;

2. To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are
incidental to viticulture and equestrian operations;

3. To coordinate growth in a manner that avoids future land use conflicts; and

4. To ensure timely provision of appropriate public infrastructure and services that keeps
up with anticipated growth.

PROJECT LOCATION AND SETTINGS:

The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the General Plan in the
southwestern portion of unincorporated Riverside County. The Project covers approximately
18,990 acres of land located approximately three miles north of the San Diego County border,
east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake (Attachment A).

This area contains some of Riverside Countys prime agriculture lands within the Temecula
Valley. Previous efforts to guide development in the SWAP included the creation of two policy
areas in the Countys General Plan the Citrus Vineyard Rural Policy Area and the Valle de los
Caballos Policy Area intended to promote agricultural and equestrian uses respectively. In
response to the increased development activity that has occurred over the past decade, the
Project was developed after a comprehensive review of the regions vision and policies that are
outlined in the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance.

Many of the existing uses within the Project area are composed of rural residential estate lots
(greater than one acre in size), vineyards, wineries and ancillary uses, citrus groves, equestrian

establishments, residential uses with equestrian amenities (e.g., barns, arenas, stables, etc.),
and vacant undeveloped properties. At this time, a total of approximately 42 existing wineries
are located within the Project area. Ancillary uses to these wineries include bed and breakfast
inns, restaurants, and special occasion facilities which are used for events such as parties,
weddings, and other social gatherings.

Adjacent land uses to the Project area include urbanizing areas within the City of Temecula as
well as existing residential subdivisions, retail commercial, educational and office uses in the
vicinity of Butterfield Stage Road, Rancho California Road and Highway 79. Lake Skinner, Vail
Lake, Pechanga Casino, campgrounds, recreational vehicle parks, as well as related
recreational amenities are also located in the immediate vicinity of the Project area.

PROJECT COMPONENTS:

The Project includes the adoption of General Plan Amendment No. 1077, as well as the
accompanying Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 to ensure consistency between the
General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The Project proposes a host of revisions to the Southwest
Area Plan of the current County General Plan to update existing policies, maps, and
implementation directions related to potential future development projects within the Project
area. Below is an outline of the various individual components that are covered under the
umbrella term of Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Attachment B):

1. General Plan Amendment No. 1077: An amendment of the existing Southwest Area
Plan (SWAP) and other elements of the General Plan including, but not be limited to:
a. Deletion of the policies of the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de Los Caballos Policy
Areas, specifically policies SWAP 1.1 through SWAP 2.1; and the addition of the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area;
b. Revisions to the SWAP Statistical Summary - Table 2;
c. Deletion of the boundaries of the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de Los Caballos Policy
Areas and addition of the boundary of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy
Area (SWAP Policy Areas Figure 4);
d. Revisions to the Circulation Network (SWAP Figure 7);
e. Revisions to the Trails and Bikeway Systems map (SWAP Figure 8);
f. Revisions to the General Plan Circulation Element Circulation Network (Figure C-1);
g. Revisions to the General Plan Circulation Element Trails Network (Figure C-7); and
h. Amendment to any other portions of the General Plan as necessary.

2. Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729: An amendment to the Riverside County Zoning
Ordinance No. 348 to add four new zoning classifications that implement the General
Plan: Wine Country - Winery; Wine Country - Winery Existing; Wine Country -
Residential; and Wine Country - Equestrian.

3. Replacement of the existing Citrus Vineyard Policy Area Design Guidelines with the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Design Guidelines and addition of the Greenhouse Gas
Emission Workbook.

It should be noted that while the proposed Project represents an increase in new development
compared to existing conditions in Wine Country, it is considerably less dense than currently
allowed in the Countys General Plan policies and zoning classifications.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH:

In addition to public outreach as required by law, County staff has conducted a significant
amount of additional community outreach in conjunction with the Project as outlined in the
following sections. As a result, County staff has been successful in resolving many of the issues
associated with the Project and in obtaining the necessary input and consensus to make
informed choices about the Project proposal.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT July 25, 2012

Vision 2020 Survey:

At the onset of the Project, County staff conducted a survey of all area-residents to understand
their vision for the Temecula Valley Wine Country region. The Vision 2020 Survey was mailed to
all property owners within the Project boundary and it received a response rate of approximately
13%. Its results supported the Countys desire to comprehensively review the regions policies
and development standards to achieve the aforementioned objectives for the Project.

Website:

Subsequently, County staff developed a Project website to disseminate Project related
information: http://www.socalwinecountryplan.org/. Since its inception, this site has been
frequently used by County staff to provide copies of available documents and maps of the
revised proposals, to update interested parties about upcoming meetings/ events, and to inform
stakeholders about associated activities such as roundabouts, a sewer study, design guidelines,
etc. To date, this web-site is being used by approximately 30,000 users annually.

Ad-Hoc Advisory Committee Meetings:

Understanding that the Project area is composed of diverse interest groups, Sup. Stone has
organized an Ad-Hoc Advisory Committee to assure that the Project addresses the issues of
concern for residents, equestrians and winery owners in the area. The Committee is composed
of 19 members. For almost three years, the Committee has met regularly, with County staff
providing briefings and updates, and convening sub-committee meetings to address issues of
specific concern. The Committee meetings were open for public participation and were well-
attended with each meeting averaging at 30-50 participants. The Committee members and
participants have debated various issues related to the Project proposal and offered their
recommendations for consideration by the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors in
the Advisory Committee Consensus Paper (Attachment C).

Focused-group Meetings and Town-hall Forums:

Periodically, County staff met with focused groups, organizations, and key stakeholders to
discuss specific issues of their concern. A series of town-hall forums and focused group
meetings were held to discuss and address various interest groups concerns with the Project
proposal. To achieve this, County staff facilitated approximately 8-12 focused group meetings or
town-hall forums between 2009 and 2012, with each meeting specifically designed to target a
specific issue or interest group (i.e. trails alignments, sub-regional land use proposals, code
enforcement, etc).

Planning Commission Public Workshops:

In addition, County staff conducted a series of public workshops in front of the Planning
Commission to inform them about progress on the Project, to allow them to hear the
communitys concerns, and to receive their feedback during the Project development phase.
Starting in April 2010, County staff held four such workshops that lasted for more than 2 hours

each. Issues that were discussed during these workshops (and some of them are subsequently
addressed in the Project proposal) involve but are not limited to the following:

1. To address off-highway vehicle operations through the Community Plan process;
2. To avoid or minimize creation of non-conforming uses or animal keeping rights through
Community Plan changes;
3. To define equestrian uses clearly (e.g. race track to avoid car or motorcycle races);
4. To allow small-scale commercial equestrian operations by right;
5. To approve the Temecula Valley Wine Country Design Guidelines;
6. To provide better enforcement tools that ensure compliance with existing County
ordinances;
7. To develop enforceable requirements for special events noise;
8. To develop a well-integrated trails network for various interest groups;
9. To protect animal keeping rights for property owners;
10. To ensure that existing wineries are able to operate and expand in the future per their
current requirements;
11. To allow timeshares or golf-courses with resort applications in the future; and
12. To address groundwater quality issues.


INFRASTRUCTURE DISCUSSIONS:

Groundwater Quality and Sewer:

In the last decade, it was evident that the growth that is anticipated in the Wine Country region
may have an impact on groundwater quality, as various existing wineries and their ancillary
uses are currently using septic systems to treat wastewater onsite. Some of the treated
wastewater from these septic systems is being discharged into the Temecula aquifer. To further
the objectives of the Project, County staff started collaboration with the San Diego Regional
Water Quality Control Board (SDRWQCB), Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD), and
Rancho California Water District (RCWD), to:

1. Ensure that groundwater quality is maintained at its desirable level as set forth by the
SDRWQCB, and

2. Secure the necessary sewer infrastructure to keep up with the growth in Wine Country.

As a result of this partnership, RCWD prepared and published the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Groundwater Quality Assessment Report in February of 2012. This report concluded
that groundwater quality in the upper aquifer has exceeded the San Diego Regional Water
Quality Control Boards Basin Plan Objective (500 mg/TDS). This means that without sewer
infrastructure, the Project and its associated growth cannot be realized. Furthermore, EMWD
prepared and published the Wine Country (Sewer) Infrastructure Study in May of 2011. This
study relied upon the growth assumptions of the Project and utilized EMWDs sewer system
planning and design criteria for calculating wastewater generation rates. The study
recommended sewer infrastructure improvements for the Project build-out scenario through
three phases of growth, which covered the entire Project boundary.

The County and EMWD staffs also conducted multiple meetings with winery proponents to
discuss various funding and financing options to pay for the necessary sewer improvements.
Subsequently, fifteen of the medium to large winery proponents have signed Letters of Intent to
financially participate in the sewer infrastructure improvements. In order to ensure adequate
funding for the construction of sewer infrastructure in Wine Country, on April 24, 2012 (Agenda
Item No. 3.2), the County Board of Supervisors have contributed $2M from the Transient
Occupancy Tax, which is generated in this region. In addition, the County Board of Supervisors
have directed staff to condition projects, that are located within the initial phases of the Sewer
Infrastructure Study, for sewer connection on April 24, 2012 (Agenda Item No. 3.3).

Motorized and Non-motorized Transportation:

The motorized transportation network in the Southwest Area Plan is anchored by Interstate 15
and Interstate 215. Access to the Project area is obtained via State Route 79 (South) or Rancho
California Road from Interstate 15 through the City of Temecula and via De Portola Road and
Sage Road from the City of Hemet.

The non-motorized transportation network in the Southwest Area Plan is implemented through
an existing Trails Network of the General Plan. However, it does not connect existing wineries
and other tourist destinations of the region, such as Lake Skinner and Vail Lake, through an
integrated equestrian and multi-purpose trails system. The Project proposes a trails network that
is more conducive to this regions destination places and users needs.

To further the objectives of the Project, County staff has partnered with the City of Temecula to
ensure regional connectivity of the motorized and non-motorized transportation network inside
and outside of the Project boundary. As a result of multiple coordination meetings, the Project
recommends innovative improvements, which would minimize/ reduce traffic impacts created by
implementing projects allowed pursuant to the Project. To achieve the Project objectives and to
ensure that transportation infrastructure is available in the region to allow implementation of the
Project, the County has begun implementation of the following:

Roundabouts Five roundabouts are proposed along Rancho California Road to
maintain rural character of this region while allowing efficient volume capacity and traffic
calming on this critical road. These roundabouts are designed to allow vehicular,
equestrian, bicycle and pedestrian traffic to all interact more efficiently and safely while
maintaining rural wine country landscape. The first roundabout at Rancho California
Road and Anza Road completed construction in J une 2012. Other four roundabouts are
located at La Serena Way, Calle Contento, Monte De Oro Road and Glenoaks Road;

Number of Lanes Several roadways have been downsized from the Countys
Circulation Element (such as Rancho California Road and De Portola Road) to maintain
the rural character of the Project area; and

Signalization/Signs The construction of traffic signals/signs for pedestrians, bikers, and
equestrians are proposed at strategic locations to promote non-motorized circulation
within the Project area. The recent installation of equestrian crossings at Anza Road and

Los Nogales Road as well as Rancho California Road east of Anza Road are a few
examples of the Countys commitment to ensuring that transportation infrastructure is
available in the region to allow implementation of the Project.


OUTSTANDING PROJECT PROPOSAL ISSUES:

During, and subsequent to, the aforementioned outreach efforts, County staff has discussed
different land use scenarios for the Project areas various sub-regions and a series of land use
policy issues with the stakeholders. Although County staff has been successful in resolving
many of the issues associated with the Project proposal, staff wants to highlight the following
outstanding issues that the Planning Commission may hear during the Public Hearing process.
This list is not intended to be an all inclusive-list of the outstanding issues, rather they are the
issues that County staff is made aware of.

The development scenario described in todays staff proposal, and analyzed in the associated
Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR No. 524), is a foreseeable worst-case scenario
or most intense development potential scenario within the 18,990-acre Project area. This
scenario may be changed as a result of the Public Hearing process. If these changes result in
increasing the Project footprint and/or land use policy changes that would result in more intense
development than the current proposal, it may require the County to re-circulate the draft PEIR
No. 524.

Project Areas Sub-region:

During the previously described outreach efforts, and through the draft PEIR comment letters,
the Project stakeholders have expressed their desire to:

1. Be added or removed from the Project boundary; or

2. Be considered for a different district of the Policy Area, than the current Project proposal.

County staff has catalogued those suggested boundary changes for consideration and
deliberation by the Planning Commission (Attachment D).

Land Use Policy Issues:

Also during the outreach efforts, and through the draft PEIR comment letters, the Project
stakeholders have raised policy issues, which County staff wants to bring to the Commissions
attention:

1. To allow small-scale Production Winery by right on less than 10 acres This policy
suggestion would allow property-owners of smaller parcels to crush grapes and produce
wine without going through a Plot Plan process.

2. To allow a tasting room with the production winery This policy suggestion would allow
a tasting room with the aforementioned production winery on less than 10 acres.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT July 25, 2012
Page 9 of 17



3. To allow for cooperative tasting rooms This policy suggestion would allow for
cooperative tasting rooms within the Project area.

4. To ensure winery operation prior to allowing operation of the incidental commercial uses
This policy suggestion would require that a winery is operational as the primary use
prior to allowing any operations of the incidental commercial uses such as tasting rooms,
retail wine sales, special occasion facilities, etc.

5. To ensure that wineries utilize 75% locally grown grapes This policy suggestion would
add language in the proposed zones that would ensure better enforcement of the 75%
locally grown grapes provision.

6. To allow limited wine-club events with a winery on 10 acres or more This policy
suggestion would allow a limited number of wine-club member events with a winery
(approved through a plot plan) on 10 acres or more.

7. To allow more than 5 guests/ acre for the Special Occasion Facility This suggestion
would eliminate a development standard for the special occasion facilities that would
allow a maximum of 5 guests per acre.

8. To provide enforceable provisions for noise This policy suggestion would provide
additional development standards for special occasion facilities and wineries to regulate,
and subsequently enforce those noise related regulations. This policy suggestion would
also require an amendment to County Ordinance No. 847, Noise Ordinance.

County staff has carefully considered the aforementioned policy suggestions and will be able to
provide their recommendations for consideration by the Planning Commission.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT PROCESS:

The County of Riverside is the Lead Agency for the Project. Section 21001.1 of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines finds that projects, to be carried out by public
agencies, must be subject to the same level of review and consideration as that of private
projects required to be approved by public entities. Therefore, the County of Riverside prepared
an Initial Study (IS) in the fall of 2009 for the Project, which determined that the Project has the
potential to have a significant effect on the environment. The County subsequently prepared a
Notice of Preparation (NOP) for a Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (PEIR No.524)
and the 30-day review period began on December 28, 2009 in accordance with CEQA
Guidelines, Section 15082. The NOP review period closed on J anuary 26, 2010.

Due to the nature of proposed General Plan Amendment and Zoning Ordinance Amendment, it
was determined that the Project met the criteria under CEQA Guidelines Section 15206,
Projects of Statewide, Regional or Area-wide Significance. To comply with this section, County
staff conducted a public scoping meeting on J anuary 19, 2010 at the Riverside County Planning
Department (12th Floor Conference Room). The purpose of the meeting was to inform involved
agencies and the public of the nature and extent of the Project, and provide an opportunity to

identify issues to be addressed in the EIR document. Issues raised during this meeting included
the following:

Water infrastructure issues including water supply and water use, region-wide water
issues, groundwater recharge zones, groundwater quality (salinity), and interagency
issues;
Sewer infrastructure issues including treatment plant capacity needs, impacts on existing
and currently planned facilities, estimates for total flows, and effects on outflows and
recharge;
Potential impacts to agricultural activities/ operations (i.e. farmers harvesting or spraying
sulfur at night, related noise and air quality impacts, etc.);
Relationship between land use planning and water usage;
Development constraint issues associated with installation costs for new vineyards,
development impact fees, and infrastructure funding;
Existing or planned land use issues for specific areas as well as land use issues
associated with policy area and zoning designations; and,
Accessibility issues associated with trails (public and equestrian access), security con-
cerns of farmers (i.e. theft) and other potential land use conflicts to be considered.

These issues were considered in the Initial Study and no new or previously unconsidered
impacts were raised at the Scoping Meeting that affected the Projects environmental analysis.

Draft Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524:

Staff wants to highlight that the Environmental Impact Report prepared for the Project (PEIR No.
524) is a Program EIR, evaluating the broad-scale environmental impacts of the Project.
Program EIRs are typically prepared for an agency plan, program or series of actions that can
be characterized as one large project, such as the Project. A Community Plan Program EIR,
addressing the impacts of area-wide and local policy decision, can be thought of as a first tier
document (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15152). It evaluates the large-scale impacts on the
environment that can be expected to result from the revision of the General Plan, Zoning
Ordinance, and Design Guidelines pursuant to the Project, but does not necessarily address the
site-specific impacts of each individual implementing project that will follow through
implementation phase of the Project. CEQA requires that each of those implementing projects
be evaluated for their particular site-specific impacts through second-tier documents, such as
subsequent EIRs, supplemental EIRs, focused EIRs, or Negative Declarations for individual
implementing projects subject to the Project. They typically evaluate the impacts of a single
activity undertaken to implement the overall Project.

Based upon the comments submitted during the NOP process and the public scoping meeting,
the Draft PEIR No. 524 analyzed the direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts for the following
resource areas:

Aesthetics, Light and Glare (Section 4.1)
Agricultural and Forestry Resources (Section 4.2)
Air Quality (Section 4.3)
Biological Resources (Section 4.4)
WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT July 25, 2012
Page 11 of 17


Cultural Resources (Section 4.5)
Geology, Soils, and Seismicity (Section 4.6)
Greenhouse Gas Emissions (Section 4.7)
Hazards and Hazardous Materials (Section 4.8)
Hydrology and Water Quality (Section 4.9)
Land Use and Relevant Planning (Section 4.10)
Mineral Resources (Section 4.11)
Noise (Section 4.12)
Public Services, Recreation and Utilities (Section 4.13)
Traffic and Transportation (Section 4.14)

Staff wants to advise the Commission that impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions were
addressed under the air quality section of the NOP/IS. However, since the publication of the
NOP/IS, a revised CEQA Guidelines Appendix G Initial Study Checklist was issued by the State
Clearinghouse, which included new checklist questions regarding greenhouse gas emissions.
These additional questions were incorporated into the Draft PEIR No. 524 in Section 4.7,
Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

While the specific mitigation measures identified in the Draft PEIR will reduce the level of many
significant impacts to a less than significant level, it identified the following areas where, after
implementation of all feasible mitigation, the Project may nonetheless result in impacts which
cannot be fully mitigated to less than significant. Various benefits would accrue from
implementation of the Project, which must be weighed against the potential adverse effects of
Project implementation in deciding whether to approve the Project. It should be noted that the
proposed Project, while representing a substantial increase in new development compared to
existing conditions, the Project is considerably less dense than currently allowed in the Countys
General Plan Policies and zoning classifications.

Significant Project Impacts:

1. Agricultural and Forestry Resources

While the Project policies and zoning classifications would increase the acreage of designated
Agricultural land uses and may in turn increase the acreage of agricultural uses, it is possible
that implementing project sites could be located on Prime Farmland (or another designation
indicating agricultural suitability) and would allow development of up to 25 percent of the total
Project area based on proposed Policy SWAP 1.2.

Additionally, active agricultural land would be allowed to convert 25 percent of its land to non-
agricultural uses under the Project. Therefore, the Project could convert agriculturally suitable
farmland, such as Prime Farmland, and active agricultural land to non-agricultural uses. This
potential conversion would generate a significant, unavoidable impact on agricultural resources.

2. Air Quality

Unavoidable significant impacts have been identified for Project-level air quality impacts related
to construction and operations activities pursuant to the Project and its implementing projects
WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT July 25, 2012
Page 12 of 17


(i.e., stationary and mobile source emissions) as well as air quality impacts on sensitive
receptors.

3. Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Compliance with the proposed SWAP policies will ensure consistency with the numeric GHG-
reduction goals of AB 32 and be consistent with promulgated plans, polices, and regulations
governing the reduction of GHG emissions. Because the Project would meaningfully reduce
Project GHG emissions and is consistent with the state and local goals, the Project is supportive
of the States goals regarding global climate change. However, Project impacts to global climate
change at the Project-level are still potentially significant and unavoidable, due to the overall
increase in emissions as compared to existing conditions.

Implementation and compliance with the Project and its mitigation measures will ensure that
impacts from GHG emissions are minimized at Project level. However, construction and
operation of implementing projects would create an increase in GHG emissions that are above
South Coast Air Quality Management Districts (SCAQMD) draft mass emission thresholds and
CARBs per capita threshold.

4. Noise

Given that it is not possible to predict the specific nature, frequency or location of all of the
wineries or all of the special events, some stationary source activity may still represent
unacceptable noise exposure within Wine Country, particularly for existing sensitive receptors.
This unavoidable impact will be reduced through compliance with the General Plan policies,
development standards of the Zoning Ordinance and Mitigation Measures NOI-1 through NOI-6
of the Draft PEIR, and will be implemented by the County on a project-by-project basis.

In addition, due to the amount of traffic trips that would be generated in association with the
proposed permitted land uses, mobile source noise impacts would be significant and
unavoidable.

5. Public Services and Utilities Fire Protection Services

Implementation of the Project would have a Project-level impact on the Fire Departments ability
to provide an acceptable level of service. Impacts include an increased number of emergency
and public service calls and a decreased level of service due to the increased presence of
structures, traffic, and population (including transient tourists).

The availability of sufficient funding to equip and staff new facilities may not be available over
the long term and the ability of the Department to negotiate for adequate funding for either
construction or long-term staffing with individual implementing projects is uncertain.
Accordingly, even with the implementation of the proposed mitigation, the Project could result in
an indirect, but considerable contribution to a potentially significant impact.

Public Services and Utilities Libraries

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT July 25, 2012
Page 13 of 17


Based on the current Riverside County standard, there are insufficient library facilities available
to provide the targeted level of service to the Project area and the balance of the service area of
the two existing libraries in Temecula. Therefore, implementing projects within the Project area
would make an indirect, but considerable contribution to that existing deficiency, resulting in a
potentially significant impact on library facilities and services.

6. Traffic

The Project would generally improve operations compared to the adopted General Plan;
however, long-term operational traffic resulting from operation of the Project would still
contribute to a potentially significant and unavoidable impact related to degradation of levels of
service in the Project area.

The Project would contribute a fair share contribution toward a future financing plan, as well as
a fair share contribution to existing fee programs, which would allow certain segments and
intersections to operate at acceptable levels of service. However, since some segments and/or
intersections are controlled by the City of Temecula, the Pechanga Band of Luiseo Indians
and/or Caltrans, the County cannot guarantee implementation of the identified improvements.
In addition, remaining funding outside the Project boundary has not been guaranteed and there
is limited right-of-way to facilitate freeway and ramp expansion. Therefore, the levels of service
impacts are considered potentially significant and unavoidable.

7. Growth-inducing Impact

The Project will allow for various onsite and offsite infrastructure improvements that could
remove impediments to growth and/or provide for additional capacity. The Project could also
result in direct job growth through increased employment opportunities as a result of the
proposed update of the existing Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) and other elements of the
General Plan. Due to its size, its incremental implementation, its impact on infrastructure, and
the potential direct and indirect economic growth associated with it, the Project would be viewed
as growth-inducing pursuant to CEQA.

8. Cumulative Impacts Air Quality

Unavoidable significant impacts have been identified for cumulative air quality impacts related to
construction and operations activities pursuant the Project, in combination with existing
conditions and development outside the Project boundary (i.e., stationary and mobile source
emissions) as well as air quality impacts on existing and future sensitive receptors.

Cumulative Impacts Greenhouse Gases

Implementation and compliance with the Project policies and its mitigation measures will ensure
that cumulative impacts from GHG emissions are minimized. However, Project impacts to global
climate change, at the cumulative level, are still potentially significant and unavoidable, due to
the overall increase in emissions as compared to existing conditions. In addition, construction
and operation of implementing projects would create an increase in GHG emissions that are
above SCAQMDs draft mass emission thresholds and CARBs per capita threshold.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT July 25, 2012
Page 14 of 17



Cumulative Impacts Noise

Build-out of the Project, in combination with existing conditions and development outside the
Project boundary, would result in potential cumulative noise level increases along major
roadways. Project implementation would result in significant cumulative noise impacts that could
not be mitigated with the implementation of the proposed policies and mitigation measures.
Thus, the Project would substantially contribute to cumulative mobile source noise impacts. It
may also be possible for multiple stationary sources such as special events or wineries to
operate concurrently and in close proximity, which could further add to cumulative noise
impacts. Therefore, the Project may result in significant stationary source impacts, even with
implementation of mitigation measures and applicable policies and ordinances.

Cumulative Impacts Public Services and Utilities

The Project, in combination with existing conditions and development outside the Project
boundary, may result in unavoidable significant cumulative impacts in the areas of fire protection
services and library services.

Cumulative Impacts Traffic

The Project, in combination with existing conditions and development outside the Project
boundary, may result in a conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance, or policy establishing
measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system and level of service
degradation to unacceptable levels. The Project may result in significant traffic-related impacts,
even with implementation of mitigation measures and applicable policies and ordinances.

Project Alternatives:

Section 15126 of the State CEQA Guidelines require that the Project alternatives be designed to
achieve the objectives and to minimize/reduce/alleviate identified environmental impacts. In
addition, some alternatives were discussed and specifically requested for consideration during
the Project development and PEIR preparation. This is a summary of the Project alternatives
described in Section 6.0, Alternatives, which contains a detailed discussion of the following
alternatives.

The Project alternatives considered in the Draft PEIR No. 524 are:

No Project/Existing General Plan Policies and Zoning Classifications Alternative; and

Reduced Density (25% Reduction) Alternative.
Alternatives rejected from further consideration in the Draft PEIR are:

Staff Recommendation: This parcel is ideally situated
for a Tourist Information Center or Park and Ride
Facility at the entrance of the Temecula Valley Wine
Country. The proposed Policy Area or zones do not
allow for such uses. Therefore, staff recommends
exclusion of the parcel from the proposed Policy Area
and Winery District thereof.

Wine Country Community Plan Outstanding Issues
Property Owner: Steve Lassley, representing various
owners

Requests: To exclude parcels from the Wine Country
Community Plan

Existing General Plan Land Use designation: Rural
CommunityEstate Density Residential

Existing Zoning Classifications: R-A

Opportunities/Constraints: Existing uses include
vacant, agricultural residential, single family
residential. The surrounding uses include single
family residential, agriculture, and wineries.

Staff Recommendation: Currently, this group has
Estate Density Residential land use designation,
which would allow these land-owners to subdivide
their properties into 2.5 acre parcels per their desire.
Due to their location at the edge of the proposed
Policy Area, staff recommends supporting exclusion
from the proposed Wine Country Policy Area and
Winery District thereof.

Wine Country Community Plan Outstanding Issues
Property Owner: Saba and Shirley Saba

Requests: Inclusion in the Winery Country - Winery
Existing Zoning Classification

Existing General Plan Land Use designation:
Agriculture within the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area

Existing Zoning Classifications: C/V

Opportunities/Constraints: The proposed Winery
District will allow Mr. Saba to have a Winery on 10
acres (which he owns); however, it would require 20
acres in order to have a restaurant.

Staff Recommendation: This group does not have an
existing or legally approved winery, and therefore, it
does not qualify to benefit from the Winery Existing
zone. As a result, staff recommends denying this
request to be included in the Wine CountryWinery
Existing zone.

Wine Country Community Plan Outstanding Issues
Property Owner: Stephen Corona

Requests: To exclude parcels from the Wine Country
Community Plan

Existing General Plan Land Use designation: Rural
CommunityEstate Density Residential

Existing Zoning Classifications: R-A

Opportunities/Constraints: The existing use on Mr.
Coronas parcels is agriculture. The existing uses of
surrounding parcels include vacant lands, single
family residential and wineries.

Staff Recommendation: Per this request, should the
County allow smaller lot residential subdivisions for
this group, it may result in creating future land use
conflicts in and around this group. Therefore, this
request does not meet an objective of the Community
Plan and staff recommends denying this request for
exclusion from the proposed Policy Area or Winery
District thereof.

COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE PLANNING DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN


PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) was initiated by the County
Board of Supervisors in 2008 to ensure that the region develops in an orderly manner that
preserves Temecula Valleys viticulture potential and enhances its economic contribution to the
County over the long term. The purpose of this Project is to provide a blueprint for future growth
that ensures that future development activities will enhance, and not impede, the quality of life
for existing and future residents, while providing opportunities for continued preservation and
expansion of winery and equestrian operations. The Project has been developed to achieve the
following four objectives:

1. To preserve and enhance viticulture potential, rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;
2. To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are
incidental to viticulture and equestrian operations;
3. To coordinate growth in a manner that avoids future land use conflicts; and
4. To ensure timely provision of appropriate public infrastructure and services that keeps
up with anticipated growth.

The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the General Plan in the
southwestern portion of unincorporated Riverside County. The Project covers approximately
18,990 acres of land located approximately three miles north of the San Diego County border,
east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake. The Project
includes General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729, and the
accompanying Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524.

ISSUES DISCUSSED IN FIRST HEARING:

This Project was discussed before the Planning Commission on J uly 25, 2012. After taking
public testimony from more than 50 members of the public, the Commission discussed specific
issues with the Project proposal and solicited additional information for consideration at the next
public hearing (August 22, 2012). Staff has organized those issues into the following broad
categories which will be explored in detail below:

1. Requirements to regulate noise;
2. Implementation of the proposed Trails Network;
3. Application of Ordinance No. 348.4729; and
4. Allowance of churches.

PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012

REQUIREMENTS TO REGULATE NOISE:

After hearing the public testimony, Commissioner Porras, Commissioner Roth and
Commissioner Snell raised concerns regarding noise generating from wineries (and their
incidental commercial uses) and its impact on existing and future residents of this region. The
Commissioners shared their specific ideas to regulate noise, some of which are addressed in
the current Project proposal.

During the Project development phase, similar concerns were raised regarding noise generating
from existing wineries. Many of these existing wineries and their commercial activities operated
without proper land use approvals. Therefore, the County engaged in a collaborative planning
and pro-active code enforcement approach to address the existing noise issues of the region.

The County staff created a database to identify all existing wineries and associated
commercial activities by conducting a comprehensive web-search of all businesses in
this region. This database identified that 46 wineries or other commercial uses were
operating without the appropriate County approvals.

The County Code Enforcement Department then provided advisory notices to these
businesses in order bring them in compliance with the appropriate County ordinances. If
those businesses had not applied for the appropriate County approval after 45-60 days,
they were cited with Code Violations and fines that increased with every citation. The
Department also created a specialized Wine Country Code Enforcement team to ensure
that the Code Officers were well-versed with code challenges unique to Wine Country.
Furthermore, the Department conducted weekend enforcement and provided a
dedicated phone-number to the area residents to file their complaints.

The aforementioned experience was used by the County staff and Ad Hoc Advisory Committee
as they engaged in developing a proposal for this Project. The following section outlines all the
various areas of the proposed Project, which are designed to regulate noise in this region and to
avoid land use conflicts in the future.

1) General Plan Amendment No. 1077:

The proposed General Plan Amendment No. 1077, through addition of the Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area, requires larger lot sizes for residential subdivisions and incidental
commercial uses as well as promotes clustered development. These design features of the
proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area are anticipated to reduce noise related
conflicts in this region.

a) The proposed Policy Area policy SWAP 1.5 restricts residential density for subdivisions
regardless of their underlying land use designations. This requirement would decrease
the number of residential units that would be exposed to wineries and their commercial
activities as well as would encourage residential subdivisions in the Wine Country-
Residential District.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 3 of 15


SWAP 1.5 Require a density of ten (10) acres minimum for tentative approval of
residential tract and parcel maps after (adoption date) regardless of the
underlying land use designation except in the Wine Country Residential District
where a density of five (5) acres minimum shall apply.

b) The proposed Policy Area also promotes clustered development in a greater geographic
area (approximately 18,990 acres) than its proceeding policy area the Citrus Vineyard
Policy Area (approximately 7,576 acres). Furthermore, the proposed policy SWAP 1.15
requires that at least 75% of the project area be set aside as vineyards or equestrian
land compared to only 50% of the project area in the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area. These
implementing clustered developments are anticipated to provide contiguous open space
buffers between residential subdivisions and winery uses, which would reduce potential
land use conflicts in the future.

SWAP 1.15 Encourage tentative approvals of residential tract and parcel maps to
cluster development in conjunction with on-site vineyards or equestrian land
provided that the overall project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit
per five (5) acres. While the lot sizes in a clustered development may vary,
require a minimum lot size of 1 acre, with at least 75% of the project area
permanently set-aside as vineyards or equestrian land.

c) The current Citrus Vineyard Policy Area allows for lodging and special occasion facilities
without a winery, which does not promote the areas viticulture potential as envisioned in
its intent. The proposed Policy Area reinforces the areas viticulture potential and rural
characteristics by requiring wineries and equestrian establishments as the primary use
for all incidental commercial activities. Furthermore, the higher intensity commercial uses
are proposed on larger lot sizes compared to the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de los
Caballos Policy Areas, which would further reduce potential land use conflicts in the
future.

SWAP 1.4 Permit limited commercial uses such as wineries, sampling rooms,
and retail wine sales establishments on a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres to
promote viticulture potential of this region.
SWAP 1.11 Allow incidental commercial uses such as special occasion facilities,
hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries as
defined in the implementing zones.
SWAP 1.12 Encourage equestrian establishments that promote the equestrian
lifestyle as described in the Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) Zone.
SWAP 1.13 Permit incidental commercial uses such as western stores, polo
grounds, or horse racing tracks, petting zoos, event grounds, horse auction
facilities, horse show facilities, animal hospitals, restaurants, delicatessens, and
special occasion facilities in conjunction with commercial equestrian
establishments on lots larger than 10 acres to encourage equestrian tourism in
this community.

2) Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729:

To implement the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, Ordinance Amendment No.
348.4729 proposes to create four Winery County Zones by adding Section 14.90 through
Section 14.96 in Ordinance No. 348. The following sections of the proposed Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729 through permitted uses section and their development standards are
anticipated to reduce noise related conflicts in this region:

a) Wine Country Winery Zone:

Section 14.92.b.5. allows special occasion facilities, bed and breakfast inns, country
inns, hotels and restaurants with an established winery through a plot plan on 20 acres
minimum.
Section 14.92.c.2. allows resorts, amphitheaters, and golf courses with an established
winery through a conditional use permit on 40 minimum acres.

b) Wine Country Equestrian Zone:

Section 14.94.b.5 allows a commercial equestrian establishment through a plot plan on
10 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.b.6 allows petting zoos, polo-grounds, and horse show facilities with a
commercial equestrian establishment through a plot plan on 10 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.b.7 allows western style stores and restaurants with a commercial
equestrian establishment through a plot plan on 20 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.c.2 allows horse racing tracks or rodeo arenas and large scale hospitals
with a commercial equestrian establishment through a conditional use permit on 50
acres minimum.
Section 14.94.c.3 allows a horse racing track or rodeo arena and large scale hospital
with a commercial equestrian establishment through a conditional use permit on 100
acres minimum.

c) Development Standards:

Section 14.96.a.1 requires site layouts and building designs to minimize noise impacts
on surrounding properties and to comply with Ordinance No. 847.
Section 14.96.e.4 requires minimum setbacks of hundred feet (100) and three hundred
feet (300) when the facility is located next to Rancho California Road, Monte De Oro
Road, Anza Road, Glen Oaks Road, Pauba Road, De Portola Road, Buck Road, Borel
Road, Butterfield Stage Road, Calle Contento Road, Camino Del Vino Road, and
Highway 79 South for special occasion facilities.
Section 14.96.e.7 ensures loading, trash, and service areas for special occasion facilities
are screened by structures or landscaping and are located and designed in such a
manner as to minimize noise and odor impacts to adjacent properties.
Section 14.96.e.7 requires that all special occasion facilities conduct a noise study or an
acoustical analysis if an outdoor facility is proposed. Based on such study or analysis,

the Planning Director may deny or require as a condition of approval that the project
applicant enter into a good neighbor agreement with the surrounding neighbors.
Section 14.97.f.5 limits two hotel rooms per gross acre for lodging facilities.
Section 14.97.f.10 ensures that loading, trash, and service areas for lodging facilities are
screened by structures or landscaping and is located and designed in such a manner as
to minimize noise and odor impacts to adjacent properties.

3) Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) No. 524 - Noise Mitigation
Measures:

The Draft PEIR No. 524 provides Exhibit 4.12-2 (Attachment A), which identifies Existing and
Anticipated Winery Sites with Special Occasion Facilities potential. However, it will be
speculative to predict the nature, frequency, scale, and site-specific design feature of these
future special occasion facilities. Instead, the PEIR provides the following carefully crafted
Mitigation Measures to reduce noise impacts from implementing projects, including noise from
construction activities, winery operations and special occasion facilities.

NOI-1 All implementing projects shall comply with the following noise reduction measures during grading
and building activities:
If construction occurs within one-quarter mile of an inhabited dwelling, construction activities
shall be limited to the daytime hours of 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the months of June
through September, and to 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the months of October through May.
To minimize noise from idling engines, all vehicles and construction equipment shall be
prohibited from idling in excess of three minutes when not in use.
Best efforts should be made to locate stockpiling and/or vehicle staging area as far as
practicable from existing residential dwellings.
Equipment and trucks shall utilize the best available noise control techniques (e.g., improved
mufflers, equipment redesign, use of intake silencers, ducts, engine enclosures, and
acoustically-attenuating shields or shrouds, wherever feasible).
Impact tools (e.g., jack hammers, pavement breakers, and rock drills) shall be hydraulically or
electronically powered wherever possible to avoid noise associated with compressed air
exhaust from pneumatically powered tools. However, where use of pneumatic tools is
unavoidable, an exhaust muffler shall be used; this muffler can lower noise levels from the
exhaust by up to about ten dBA. External jackets on the tools themselves shall be used
where feasible, and this could achieve a reduction of five dBA. Quieter procedures shall be
used, such as drills rather than impact equipment, whenever feasible.
Stationary construction noise sources shall be located as far from adjacent receptors as
possible, and they shall be muffled and incorporate insulation barriers, or other measures to
the extent feasible.
NOI-2 Implementing project proponents shall submit a list of measures to respond to and track
complaints pertaining to construction noise, ongoing throughout demolition, grading, and/or
construction. These measures may include the following:
A sign posted on-site pertaining the permitted construction days and hours and complaint
procedures and who to notify in the event of a problem. The sign may also include a listing of
both the County and construction contractors telephone numbers (during regular
construction hours and off-hours); and

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 6 of 15


A pre-construction meeting may be held with the job inspectors and the general
contractor/on-site project manager to confirm that noise measures and practices (including
construction hours, neighborhood notification, posted signs, etc.) are completed.

NOI-3 All implementing projects involving a new winery or expansion of an existing winery shall be
reviewed by the Riverside County Office of Industrial Hygiene and include at least the following
conditions:
The hours of operation for tasting rooms associated with wineries shall be limited to 9:00 a.m.
to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Winery District and 10:00 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Equestrian and Residential Districts.
Mechanical equipments including but not limited to, de-stemming, crushing, and refrigeration
equipment shall be enclosed or shielded for noise attenuation. Alternatively, the proponent
may submit a Noise Study prepared by a qualified acoustical analyst that demonstrates that
the unenclosed/unshielded equipment would not exceed the Countys allowable noise levels.
The hours of operation for shipping facilities associated with wineries shall be limited to 9:00
a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Winery District and 10:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Equestrian and Residential
Districts.
Shipping facilities and parking areas which abut residential parcels shall be located away
from sensitive land uses and be designed to minimize potential noise impacts upon nearby
sensitive land uses.
Site-specific noise-attenuating features such as hills, berms, setbacks, block walls, or other
measures shall be considered for noise attenuation in noise-producing areas of future
wineries including, but not limited to, locations of mechanical equipment, locations of shipping
facilities, access, and parking areas.
NOI-4 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall be required to conduct a
noise study prior to its approval. Similarly, all implementing projects involving an outdoor special
occasion facility shall be required to conduct an acoustical analysis (that shows the noise
contours outside the property boundary) prior to its approval.
The said noise study or acoustical analysis shall be submitted to the Office of Industrial
Hygiene for review and comments.
Based on those comments, the implementing project shall be conditioned to mitigate noise
impacts to the applicable County noise standards through site design and buildings
techniques.
Prior to the issuance of any building permit for the special occasion facility, those noise
mitigation measures shall have received the necessary permits from Building and Safety
Department.
Prior to issuance of occupancy permit for the special occasion facility, those noise mitigation
measures shall be constructed/implemented.

NOI-5 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall be reviewed by the Riverside
County Office of Industrial Hygiene and include at least the following conditions:
All special event venders (e.g. DJs, musical bands, etc.) shall be notified regarding noise
conditions of approval .
Outdoor special events and associated audio equipment, sound amplifying equipment, and/or
performance of live music shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday
through Sunday.

Noise levels shall be kept below levels prescribed in the Countys General Plan Noise
Element and County noise Ordinances No. 847 by using a decibel-measuring device to
measure music sound levels when amplified music is used.
Clean-up activities associated with special events shall terminate no later than midnight.
Outdoor speakers for all scheduled events shall be oriented toward the center of the property
and away from adjoining land uses.
Padding/carpeting shall be installed under music speakers for early absorption of music.
NOI-6 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall include at least the following
conditions to ensure proper enforcement of the County Ordinances and project conditions:
After issuance of two Code Violation Notices for excessive noise, noise measurements shall
be performed by the Office of Industrial Hygiene for every event at the property line, to
determine if the Noise Ordinance and project conditions are being followed during the special
events.
If violations of the Noise Ordinance or project conditions are found, the County shall
reconsider allowed hours of operation, number of guests, amount of special events per year,
or approval of the specific facility.
The proponents shall be required to pay fees assessed per the Department's hourly rate
pursuant to Ordinance No. 671.
NOI-7 Prior to the issuance of each grading permit, all implementing projects shall demonstrate
compliance with the following measures to reduce the potential for human annoyance and
architectural/structural damage resulting from elevated groundborne noise and vibration levels:
Pile driving within a 50-foot radius of occupied units or historic or potentially historic
structures shall utilize alternative installation methods where possible (e.g., pile cushioning,
jetting, pre-drilling, cast-in-place systems, resonance-free vibratory pile drivers).
If no alternative to pile driving is deemed feasible, the preexisting condition of all designated
historic buildings within a 50-foot radius of proposed construction activities shall be evaluated
during a preconstruction survey. The preconstruction survey shall determine conditions that
exist before construction begins for use in evaluating damage caused by construction
activities. Fixtures and finishes within a 50-foot radius of construction activities susceptible to
damage shall be documented (photographically and in writing) prior to construction. All
damage shall be repaired back to its preexisting condition.
Vibration monitoring shall be conducted prior to and during pile driving operations occurring
within 100 feet of the historic structures. Every attempt shall be made to limit construction-
generated vibration levels during pile driving and impact activities in the vicinity of the historic
structures.
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROPOSED TRAILS NETWORK:

A significant amount of public testimony was regarding the proposed Trails Network. Most of the
testimony supported the current proposal and encouraged the Commission to consider
implementation aspects associated with this proposal. The Commission asked staff to provide
them with a clear understanding on the proposed Trails Network and its implementation
information. The following table outlines various trail classifications and their respective
implementation information as envisioned in the proposed GPA No. 1077. In addition,
Attachment B provides a map of each proposed trail classification and their respective cross-
sections as proposed in the Project.

Regional or Community Trail on, or
parallel to, a historic route. They provide
opportunities to recognize these trails
and their significance in history through
interpretative centers, signage etc.

Acquisition and Maintenance Entity: Historic
routes are only graphically depicted on the
General Plan; thus, acquisition and
maintenance is not required.
Private Trails:
Current Proposal
Approx. 15,000 Ln.
Ft.
Characteristics: These trails are provided
by private owners to encourage patrons.
Acquisition and Maintenance Entity: The
acquisition and maintenance are negotiated

APPLICATION OF ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 348.4729:

In the first public hearing, a few members of the public asked questions regarding which type of
activities will fall under the proposed Projects purview and will require a zone change
application to ensure parcel specific zoning consistency. It was evident that further clarification
on this subject was essential to ease stakeholders concerns now, and the Projects
implementation in the future. The following section offers staffs interpretation of the proposal on
this subject (Attachment C).

Ordinance No. 348.4729 is a text amendment to the Countys Land Use Ordinance (Ordinance
No. 348) that adds four new zoning classifications. The four new zoning classifications (Wine
Country Zones) are: Wine Country Winery Zone, Wine Country Winery Existing Zone, Wine
Country Equestrian Zone, and Wine Country Residential Zone. The Wine Country Zones
would allow the County to implement the goals and policies of the proposed Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area of the Riverside County General Plan. If the Board of Supervisors
adopts Ordinance No. 348.4729, then all future requests for discretionary land use entitlements
and land divisions within the Policy Area will require a change of zone to bring the property's
zoning classification within one of the Wine Country zones to be consistent with the General
Plan and would update the County's zoning map accordingly.

If the future proposed use for the property within the Wine Country Policy Area is a use
that is permitted by right under both Ordinance 348.4729 and the zoning classification
for the property that was in place immediately before the adoption of Ordinance No.
348.4729, then a change of zone application would not be required.

However, if the proposed future use is permitted by right under Ordinance No. 348.4729
but it was not permitted by right under the zoning classification in place immediately
before the adoption of Ordinance No. 348.4729, then a change of zone application
would be required.

ALLOWANCE OF CHURCHES:

Approximately 25 members of the public commented on the County not allowing churches in the
Project proposal. After hearing public testimony, the Commission directed staff to provide them
options that would allow places of religious worship in the Project proposal.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 11 of 15



The following information is provided in response to that direction:

Existing Condition:

Currently, under Ordinance No. 348 churches, temples and other places of religious worship are
not permitted uses in the C/V zoning classification. However, churches, temples and other
places of religious worship are permitted in approximately 27 of the Countys 38 zoning
classifications. If churches, temples and other places of religious worship wish to locate in one
of these 27 zones, they would need to obtain a plot plan or public use permit for the use
depending on the zoning classification. Similar nonreligious uses such as educational
institutions, fraternal lodge halls and recreational facilities are also required to obtain a plot plan
or public use permit in the specific zoning classification.

Additionally, the Projects boundaries apply to approximately 18,990 acres, while the
unincorporated area of Riverside County covers approximately 4,121,114 acres. As a result, the
Project applies to less than 1% of the land within Riverside County, leaving ample opportunity to
locate churches, temples and other places of worship elsewhere.

The Project:

The current Citrus Vineyard Rural Policy Area and C/V zone, as well as the proposed Wine
Country Policy Area and its implementing Wine Country zones, are developed to preserve and
enhance the viticulture potential of this region. Furthermore, these regulating documents allow
for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are necessary to support economic
viability of the viticulture operations.

On December 28, 2009, the County issued a Notice of Preparation for the Wine Country
Community Plan Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524 (PEIR No. 524). On
J anuary 19, 2010, the County held a Scoping Meeting to discuss the scope and content
of the environmental information for the PEIR No. 524. At this point in time, churches,
temples, and other places of religious worship were not allowed in this region.
Furthermore, no application was filed for a church that indicated otherwise, or no
comments were received at the Scoping Meeting that suggested otherwise.

In March of 2011, Calvary Church submitted a Plot Plan application to expand its
existing church that is operating as a legal non-conforming use Public Use Permit No.
798 (PUP No. 798). PUP No. 798 was approved in 1999.

In September of 2011, the Planning Department developed a screen-check version of
the PEIR No. 524, which established the cut-off date for the proposed projects to be
included in the cumulative analysis. Since Calvary Church expansion application was
filed prior to this date, it was included in the PEIRs cumulative analysis for the Project.
However, Calvary Churchs proposed use that is the subject of the application is not a
component of the Project. Calvary Churchs application for expansion is being processed
separately and it is not before the Commission at this time for consideration.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 12 of 15


On December 05, 2011, the County issued a Notice of Availability of the Draft PEIR No.
524 for 60-days public review and comment period.

Issues of Consideration:

It should be stated that although a private school is a component of the Calvary Church
expansion proposal, public testimony at the first public hearing remained focused on the church
only. The Commission did not engage in any discussion regarding allowance of private schools
in the current Project proposal. However, staff wants to mention that private schools, like
churches, are not currently listed as a permitted use in the C/V zone, proposed Wine Country
zones, or Section 18.29 of Ordinance 348 through a Public Use Permit.

Alcohol Licensing Requirements:

Wineries in the Temecula Valley Wine Country generally receive #02 winegrower license,
which is a non-retail license from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC). The California Business and Professional Code Section 23358 (d) provides the following
for Alcohol License #02:

The department (ABC) may, if it shall determine for good cause that the granting of any such
privilege would be contrary to public welfare or morals, deny the right to exercise any on-sale
privilege authorized by this section in either a bona fide eating place the main entrance to which
is within 200 feet of a school or church, or on the licensed winery premises, or both.

If a winery wishes to sell distilled spirits, the ABC would require a #47 license to sell such spirits.
This license is considered a retail license. As a result, the license would be subject to the
restrictions set-forth in the California Business and Professional Code Section 23789, which
provides the following:

a) The department (ABC) is specifically authorized to refuse the issuance, other than renewal
or ownership transfer, of any retail license for premises located within the immediate vicinity
of churches and hospitals,
b) The department (ABC) is specifically authorized to refuse the issuance, other than renewal
or ownership transfer, of any retail license for premises located within at least 600 feet of
schools and public playgrounds or nonprofit youth facilities, including, but not limited to,
facilities serving Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, or Campfire Girls. This distance shall be measured
pursuant to rules of the department.

Riverside County Agricultural Commissioners Requirements:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country is located within the San J acinto District of the Riverside
County Agricultural Commissioners jurisdiction. The Agricultural Commissioner has specific
standard requirements for pesticide use conditions within this district. Per those requirements,
no foliar applications of pesticides are allowed within mile and no aircraft applications of
pesticides are allowed within mile of a school in session. Although aircraft applications of
pesticides are only occasionally used in the Temecula Valley Wine Country, foliar applications
are absolutely critical in sustaining vineyards and other agricultural operations in this region.

Options for Consideration:

After considering various aspects associated with this issue, staff proposes the following three
options to the Commission for their consideration. The Commission may elect one of the three
options, or consider creating a new one by combining the various components set-forth in the
three staff proposals.

OPTION 1 Allow Churches in the Project:

In their concluding remarks for the first hearing, the Planning Commission directed staff to
analyze and develop an option that includes places of religious worship in the Project proposal.
Option 1 takes that direction literally and proposes the following changes in the Project
proposal.

1. GPA No. 1077: In the proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, a general
discussion regarding places of religious worship will be added. In addition, the proposed
SWAP 1.11 (under Wine Country Winery District) and SWAP 1.13 (under Wine
Country Equestrian District) will be revised to add churches, temples, and places of
religious worship as permitted uses in these districts.

2. Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729: The proposed Article XIVd will need to be revised
at multiple locations as follows:

a. Section 14.90 (Intent) A general discussion regarding places of religious will be
added.
b. Section 14.91 (Definitions) A definition for churches, temples, and places of
religious worship will be added.
c. Section 14.92b (Wine Country Winery Zone Conditionally Permitted Uses with
a Plot Plan) Churches, temples, and places of religious worship on a minimum
gross parcel size of twenty (20) acres will be added as the sixth permitted use.
d. Section 14.94c (Wine Country Equestrian Zone Conditionally Permitted Uses
with a Conditional Use Permit) Churches, temples, and places of religious
worship on a minimum gross parcel size of hundred (100) acres will be added as
the fourth permitted use.
e. Section 14.96e (Development Standards for Special Occasion Facilities) In the
introductory paragraph, a discussion for churches, temples, and places of
religious worship will be added.

The development scenario described in the proposed Project, and analyzed in the associated
PEIR No. 524, has not accommodated the intensity of multiple churches, temples, and places of
religious worship in this region. Should the Commission recommends this option, additional
analyses will be necessary which may result in a recirculation of the Draft PEIR, including but
not be limited to, land use, transportation and circulation, air quality, agricultural resources, and
noise.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 14 of 15


OPTION 2 Remain with the existing Project Proposal:

In Option 2, the Commission recommends processing the current proposal for the Project and
Calvary Church continues to process the land use applications it submitted to the Planning
Department. No changes will be made to the proposed Project. The Calvary Church application
will be processed separately in the future, and it is not before the Commission at this time for
consideration.

OPTION 3 Exclusion of Calvary Parcels from the Project Boundary:

In Option 3, the Commission recommends to exclude both the Calvary Church parcels from the
proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. The Project proposal will be changed as
follows:

1. GPA No. 1077: The proposed Southwest Area Plan Policy Area Figure 4 and 4a will be
revised to remove the two Calvary Church parcels (Assessors Parcel Numbers: 943-
250-021 and 943-250-018).

Upon adoption of the Project, the two Calvary Church parcels will be excluded from the Projects
boundary and will maintain their existing land use designation and zoning classification. A text
change amendment to Ordinance No. 348 will still be needed to allow churches, temples, and
other places of religions worship as permitted uses in the C/V zoning classification. Since the
parcels are being removed from the Project, such amendment would only apply to those two
parcels and it should be able to tier off the environmental analyses contained in PEIR No. 524.


RECOMMENDATION:

DISCUSS AND CONTINUE to August 29 or September 26, 2012

Re: Response to Agenda Item 3.1 Staff Report (Staff Report) for the August 22,
2012 Planning Commission hearing regarding inclusion of religious
institutions and ancillary schools in the Wine Country Community Plan.
Dear Commissioners:
Thank you for your continued diligence to make the Wine Country Community Plan
(WCCP) a reality. We very much appreciate your willingness to take testimony and
consider the concerns of the Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowship (Calvary) and its many
members regarding the need for the County to affirmatively establish in the WCCP that
religious institutions and ancillary schools are welcome and compatible with the goals and
objectives of the general plan amendments.
On August 16, 2012, Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith, LLP (LBBS) submitted
correspondence to the County Counsel proposing specific changes to the language of the
WCCP to include churches and ancillary schools. On August 21, 2012, we further
submitted a proposed resolution for your consideration that would direct staff to evaluate
inclusion of religious institutions and ancillary schools through a targeted recirculation of
the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR). Copies of this proposed resolution for
your consideration, and the August 16 letter are attached.
Planning Commissioners Roth, Snell, Petty and Zuppardo
August 21, 2012

LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
The purpose of this letter is to respond in writing to certain factual inaccuracies in
the Staff Report and to clarify issues that warrant further explanation in advance of the
continued public hearing on August 22
nd
2012. It also sets forth the many concessions that
Calvary is willing to make in an effort to stave off more controversy over its continued
operation and expansion in the wine country. We believe the Wine Country Community
Plan is important for the long-term economic stability of the area and we support its
adoption as amended.
Based on prior litigation filed by the vintners and statements made to the Planning
Commission, it appears some wineries fear that the inclusion of churches and ancillary
schools as permitted uses in the WCCP will lead to an outbreak of new facilities that will
disrupt their operations and undermine the purpose of the WCCP. This fear is grossly
overstated insofar as the requirements of the WCCP (i.e., planting requirements; setbacks;
design standards and other requirements) will deter many facilities from locating in the
WCCP. And, any such facility has to comply with CEQA prior to it receiving a Public Use
Permit or a Conditional Use Permit, either of which can be properly conditioned.
Opponents of Calvary have raised additional substantive issues as reflected in the
Staff Report at page 12. Calvary responds as follows:
1. Alcohol licenses for wine sales. Staff notes that the majority of winegrowers
are issued a #02 license for non-retail wine sales from the California
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). (Staff Report, p. 12).
California law specifies that the ABC may deny the license to a premises
located within 200 feet of a school or church. (Staff Report, p. 12, citing Cal.
Bus. & Prof. Code 23789). Use of the word may has lead several people
to argue that the ABC, in fact, will deny the license or that Calvary will object
to their issuance. Neither is a real threat here.
a. The proposed development standards already mandate a setback of
300 feet from Rancho California Road for Special Occasion Facilities
all Wine Country districts. (Ord. 348, Proposed Art. XIVd, Section
14.96(e)(4).) If that proposed zoning ordinance is amended to account
for religious institutions in this district, Calvarys expansion project will
be subject to as yet unspecified setback requirements as well, thus all
but eliminating the possibility that a #02 license will not be issued.
b. As shown in the on page 6 of the Calvary Press Release included in
the Staff Report (excerpt also attached hereto), Calvarys proposed
school is located more than 500 feet away from the Pinnacle
Restaurant to the northwest, and the Maurice Carrie winery to the
southeast.
Planning Commissioners Roth, Snell, Petty and Zuppardo
August 21, 2012
Page 3
4815-4580-3792.2
LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
2. Alcohol licenses for liquor. Staff goes on to state that, if a winery or affiliated
use desires to serve spirits, they must apply for a #47 retail liquor license.
The Business & Professions code states that these types of licenses may
be denied for good cause if located less than 600 feet from a school or
church, and that the measurement of 600 feet is determined by ABC rules.
(Staff Report, p. 12).
a. Calvary is willing to set back any school a sufficient distance from the
property line to help mitigate concerns about potential limitations on
issuance of either a winegrowers license or a retail liquor/spirits
license.
b. Calvary agrees not to raise any objections concerning alcoholic
beverages at the wineries including the installation of a full service bar
and application of #47 or #02 licenses. Calvarys acquiescence to
liquor licenses is a factor that ABC will consider in granting a liquor
license in the immediate vicinity of a church. (Martin v. Alcoholic
Beverage Control Appeals Board (1961) 55 Cal.2d 867 [holding that
one factor in favor of granting a license was that, although the
applicant was only 70 feet from a church, the church had not protested
the application.].)
c. Additionally, in a review of ABC appeals and related case law, the
distance to a school or church does not mandate denial and distance
is not necessarily a dispositive factor; there must generally be good
cause in addition to distance in order to deny a license under
23789. (See Martin v. Alcoholic Beverage Control Appeals Board,
supra, at 875: If mere proximity were as a matter of law good cause
for denial of a license the department would not be specifically
authorized to refuse the issuance; by contrast, it would be specifically
required to refuse it. Therefore, by the terms of the statute and the
Constitution, it is clear that in every such case the department is
bound to exercise a legal discretion in passing on the application.
[emphasis in original].) Finally, the ABC opinions suggest that close
proximity to a high school causes greater concern to the ABC than
proximity to an elementary school. (Protest of Buckley, et al. (1999)
AB-7249 at 14).
Realistically, many of the ABC rules were intended to prevent liquor
stores being located in the vicinity of schools so that teenagers did not
have ready access to alcohol. It is beyond credulity to image that the
kids from Calvary will be frequenting the wine bars at the local
Planning Commissioners Roth, Snell, Petty and Zuppardo
August 21, 2012
Page 4
4815-4580-3792.2
LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
vintners. Calvary believes that the Planning Commission should give
little or no weight to this ABC issue because it is more of a pretext to
keep the church out than a genuine concern.
3. Pesticides. Staff does raise some legitimate questions concerning the
compatibility of schools given the proximity of pesticide application in the
immediate vicinity. (Staff Report, p. 12). Without elaboration, staff points out
that foliar applications of pesticides is critical in sustaining vineyards and
other agricultural operations, and that ground rig pesticide application is not
permitted within mile of a school in session, while aircraft applications of
pesticides are not permitted within mile of a school in session.
a. Calvary acknowledges that the timing of and type of pesticide
application is not always predictable depending upon conditions in the
field. Nevertheless, this is a highly regulated area and rules have
already been adopted by the County Agricultural Commissioner to
accommodate the many schools located in agricultural areas.
b. In May 2011, the County Agricultural Commissioner provided a report
to the Planning Commissioners addressing the pesticide issue in
greater detail than the present Staff Report (a copy of which is
attached hereto and is also incorporated into the Staff Report at p. 13
of the Calvary Press Release attachment).
c. The school proximity restrictions are general conditions of pesticide
use implemented by Riverside County. In the May 19, 2011 report, the
Agricultural Commissioner stated that applications are permissible
within the stated distances if:
i. The application takes place outside of regularly scheduled class
times (even if it occurs during the school year), including
weekends, holidays and vacations; and
ii. The school and school grounds are not being used for an
event such as a public event, meeting, sports activity, etc.
(Agricultural Commission Report, p. 3).
d. To mitigate any adverse impact on its neighbor vineyards, Calvary
would agree to abide by any special orders of the Riverside County
Agriculture Commissioner requiring that school not be in session for
special spraying events.
Planning Commissioners Roth, Snell, Petty and Zuppardo
August 21, 2012
Page 5
4815-4580-3792.2
LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
e. Furthermore, Calvary would work directly with its neighbor vintners to
avoid conflicts with spraying schedules and any school activities once
the school is occupied.
4. Options for action. Staff presents the Planning Commissioners with three
options for consideration. (Staff Report, p. 13-14). Option (1) proposes
including religious institutions in both the Wine Country Winery district and
the Wine Country Equestrian district, and proposes making the required
changes to the general plan amendment and the zoning ordinances. Option
(2) is to do nothing and proceed with the WCCP as is without consideration of
religious institutions or schools. Option (3) is to carve out the Calvary
parcels from the WCCP, leaving it as an island remnant of the existing
Citrus/Vineyard zone which, as you know, also does not consider inclusion of
religious institution or ancillary schools. Staff does allow for flexibility, noting
that the Commissioners do not need to choose one of these options but can
instead create a new one.
a. Calvary suggests a fourth option, which is narrower in scope than
Option (1) but more inclusive (and conducive to the goals of the
WCCP) than Options (2) or (3). Calvary proposes that religious
institutions and ancillary schools be included in the Wine Country
Winery (WC-W) district only. Limiting churches and ancillary schools
to the district with the far greater number of Special Occasion Facilities
will focus and narrow the scope of the environmental impact inquiry
and will minimize changes necessary to the proposed general plan
and zoning ordinance amendments.
b. Calvary agrees to pay fifty percent (50%), up to $100,000, of the cost
to recirculate of the DEIR due to the evaluation of potential impacts
created by religious institutions and their ancillary schools. Calvary
understands that any cost sharing would need to be put into a written
agreement and approved by the Board of Supervisors.
c. To this end, Calvary has proposed a resolution for the Planning
Commissioners consideration on August 22, 2012, directing staff to
revise the DEIR to include the evaluation of potential environmental
impacts of religious institutions and ancillary school uses in the
proposed WC-W district and, thereafter to recirculate the DEIR or
portions thereof. An EIR evaluating Churches and ancillary schools
would identify impacts and appropriate mitigation and form as the
basis for the revisions to the WCCP and associated zoning that were
set forth in LBBS correspondence of August 16, 2012.

Re: Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowships (Calvary) proposed changes to the
proposed general plan and zoning ordinance language for the Wine Country
Community Plan (WCCP)

Dear Shellie:
I am sorry that you need to cancel our planned meeting on the 21
st
. As I mentioned
earlier today, I am available to meet any time (or to schedule a conference call) to go over
the issues in this letter hopefully in advance of the upcoming Planning Commission hearing
on August 22, 2012.
As you know, Calvary currently is processing a plot plan application (comprising
Project Case No. PP2248 and Change of Zone No. 7782) (Application). Based on past
opposition from the wineries, we fear that the Countys failure to expressly identify religious
institutions and ancillary educational facilities in the WCCP may prevent the County from
making a finding of general plan consistency in the future. At a minimum, such a finding
would be subject to challenge. Supervisor Stone has assured Calvary that he supports
churches and ancillary schools in the WCCP. The proposed minor changes set forth below
are intended to clarify this commitment and to eliminate any future uncertainty when
processing the Application.
Clarifying that religious institutions are welcome in the wine country can easily be
accomplished by adding one new policy in the policy section applicable to all districts

Shellie Clack
August 16, 2012
Page 2


4815-5051-6752.2
LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
within the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, as defined in the proposed general
plan amendment.
1
The new policy should state:

SWAP #__ Allow integration of places of religious worship as
appropriate provided that the facilities maintain the rural
character of the Winery, Equestrian and Residential districts by
conforming to planting and acreage requirements not
inconsistent with the goals of the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area.
We further propose two modifications to the proposed zoning ordinance 348.4729
(which adds a new article, XIVd).
1. Definitions Section 14.91, subsection (t) defining Special Occasion
Facilities, should be amended as indicated by the underlined text:
An indoor or outdoor facility, which may include a
gazebo, pavilion, amphitheater, auditorium,
structures and buildings, which is used on special
occasions such as weddings, parties, concerts,
conferences, charity events and fundraiser events
for a specific period of time in return for
compensation, or which is used for religious
worship. An outdoor special occasion facility may
include a gazebo, pavilion, or amphitheater for
wedding ceremonies, concerts or other
celebrations. An indoor special occasion facility
shall include a building or structure for wedding
receptions, conferences, religious worship or
other celebrations conducted entirely within the
structure or building.
2. Section 14.92, describing authorized uses in the Wine Country-Winery (WC-
W) zone, specifically subsection (b), setting forth conditionally permitted uses
with a plot plan, which states that Any permit that is granted shall be subject
to such conditions as shall be necessary to protect the health, safety or
general welfare of the community. The following uses are permitted provided

1
At present, the policies applicable to all districts are numbered SWAP 1.1 through 1.9. We would
propose numbering the new policies as SWAP 1.10 and 1.11; but note that this would require re-numbing the
all subsequent SWAP policies in the current draft general plan amendment.

Shellie Clack
August 16, 2012
Page 3


4815-5051-6752.2
LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
a plot plan has been approved pursuant to Section 18.30 of this ordinance.
We propose to add a subsection (6) as follows:
(6) The following non-commercial uses on a
minimum gross parcel size of twenty (20)
acres:
a. Places of religious worship.
Importantly, the inclusion of places of religious worship in the definition of special
occasion facility should not require recirculation of the draft Environmental Impact Report
(DEIR). The DEIR already has analyzed the environmental impacts that special occasion
facilities would create.
2
Impacts from commercial events versus religious gatherings are
largely indistinguishable. Moreover, the Planning Director will retain discretion to impose
reasonable conditions or mitigation on development appropriate to ensure consistency with
the objectives of the WCCP as each proposed project will continue to require its own
CEQA review prior to approval.
Calvary also has proposed a small school (under 200 students) as part of the
Application. Calvary therefore recommends adding language to the proposed addition of
subsection (6) to section 14.92 of the zoning ordinance authorizing uses in the WC-W zone
to include ancillary church uses, such as a small school. The proposed subsection (6)
would then read:

(6) The following non-commercial uses on a minimum gross
parcel size of twenty (20) acres:
a. Churches, temples or other places of
religious worship;
b. Uses ancillary to churches, temples or
places of religious worship, including
private schools.
As the WCCP currently reads, such a private school might be considered
inconsistent with the objectives of the general plan even though section 18.29(a)(1) of

2
See, e.g., DEIR Executive Summary at 1.0-32 to 1.0-34 and 1.0-40; Project Description at 3.0-18
to 3.0-20; and DEIR sections on Agricultural and Forestry Resources at 4.2-12 to 4.2-13; Biological
Resources at 4.4-10; Greenhouse Gas Emissions at 4.7-26; Land Use at 4.10-22, 4.10-24, and 4.10-31;
Noise at 4.12-36 to 4.12-48; Public Utilities, Recreation and Services at 4.13-2 and 4.13-16; and Traffic and
Circulation at 4.14-40 and 4.14-47.

4815-5051-6752.2
LEWIS BRISBOIS BISGAARD & SMITH LLP www.lbbslaw.com
Ordinance 348 permits educational institutions in any area. Again, to avoid unnecessary
litigation and delays later, Calvary believes the issue of ancillary religious schools be
openly addressed now so that the appropriate analysis and conditions can been adopted
as part of the WCCP.

The DEIR clearly does not address schools, and therefore Calvary requests that the
Planning Commission recommend recirculation on this one narrow issue. Calvary is willing
to pay the cost of this targeted analysis which should take under four months to
accomplish, and the CEQA Regulations permit such limited recirculation.
3


We appreciate that this matter has become controversial in light of the wineries past
litigation and blanket opposition to churches. The safer option for the County is to address
those issues prior to adoption of the WCCP. We look forward to working with you to ensure
that the continued operation of the Church is compatible with the goals of our surrounding
neighbors.

Very truly yours,

Re: SUMMARY OF CURES' OBJECTlONS TO PROPOSED WlNE COUNTRY
COMMUNlTY PLAN
Dear Chairman Snell and Honorable Commissioners:
This public comment is submitted on behalf of Citizens United for Resources and
the Environment, lnc. ("CURE), a 501(c)(3) that supports sustainable agriculture through
long-term water management practices, habitat protection and environmental justice.
CURE was founded in 1997, and has weighed in on a number of issues directly related to
land use in Riverside County. CURE has been a strong proponent of the State of California
living up to its commitment to fund the Salton Sea. More recently, we have worked with the
Riverside County Farm Bureau and with the County Water Commission on a task force
addressing use of recycled water on citrus due to boron.
CURE has reviewed the Wine County Community Plan ("Plan) and related Draft
Environmental lmpact Report ("ElR) and raises the concerns stated herein. CURE
reserves the right to supplement these comments in the future and to respond to some of
the issues that the Planning Commission raised at the Planning Commission Hearing on
August 22, 2012.
1. lmpact to Water Supply.
CURE is concerned that the ElR does not adequately consider
water availability under today's current conditions. The ElR
calculations show there is a potential water demand increase of
approximately 10,336 acre-feet/year (38%) above current

projected demand on average by 33,238 acre-feet. Appendix H,
ElR at 4.9-21, 22; Appen. H.
The ElR incorrectly assumes that the Project will have no
significant impact on water supplies due to reduced residential
and commercial water use. This analysis fails to account for the
significant increase in irrigation resulting from mandatory and
incentivized agriculture as a condition of residential land use on
the same property for WC zoned land. For example, 75% of
implementing projects on sites zones WC-W must be planted
with vineyards. SWAP 1.3; ElR at 4.2-11.
ln addition, the studies evaluated and referenced in Appendix H
include some dated materials from nearly a decade ago. A
proper assessment of the impact to water supply requires
updated and current data. Since the General Plan serves as the
foundation for all future development, ensuring that adequate
water is available should be addressed at the earliest time from
a CEQA perspective.
2. lmpact to Water Quality based on lncreased Nitrate Concentrations.
The ElR acknowledges that leaching of nitrate to groundwater
can be a threat to public health but fails to identify how this will
be mitigated to insignificance. ElR at 4.9.19. Recent studies
from the University of California, Davis outline best
management techniques that can be adopted to reduce
increased nitrate loads.
To protect against these long-term impacts to water quality,
management measures and recommended practices for
reducing nitrate to groundwater from crop operations should be
analyzed and implemented. Further, any infrastructure
development necessary for water supply should include
recycled water with sufficient treatment to eliminate additional
nitrates (such as reverse osmosis). The cost of such treatment
is not included in the ElR analysis.
3. lmpact of lncreased Labor Force.
The ElR and Project Plan did not address the availability of low
income or worker housing to accommodate the increased labor
force traditionally drawn to low pay agricultural or hospitability

jobs. Workers must have affordable, accessible housing;
whether it is provided by employers or not. ln the absence of
policies designed to accommodate a greater labor force, labor
camps or tent cities may result. This was the case in Duroville
in the east Coachella Valley. We urge the Planning
Commission to contact the Coachella Valley Association of
Governments to draw upon their analysis and recommendation
for housing migrant labor.
The ElR did not take these environmental justice issues into
consideration For example, the Proposed Wine Country
Zoning allows for farm employee housing after a conditional
use permit ("CUP) is obtained. However, this plan depends on
the willingness of farm owners to proactively build housing that
rarely occurs.
CURE requests that the impact of increased labor be
considered and analyzed, and that the County draw upon
experiences in other areas such as Coachella Valley for
militating against the impacts of increased migrant workers in a
particular area.
As proposed, the Community Plan would result in significant adverse
environmental, social and health impacts that have not been adequately
identified, assessed or mitigated in the Environmental lmpact Report. CURE
requests that the County evaluate these impacts in more detail prior to
making a final environmental determination or proceeding with the Project
Plan.

Subject: Overturn the ban against churches and allow Calvary Chapel to expand

Dear Ms. Mary Stark and Riverside County Supervisors,

Please overturn the ban against churches in Riverside County and allow Calvary Chapel to expand. In expanding
Temecula Wine Country from 7,000 acres to over 18,990 acres, you certainly have room for many houses of worship. It is
entirely unfair, unAmerican, and prejudicial keep churches out of the wine country. Please do what is right and fair, and
uphold religious freedom by including churches in Temecula Wine Country.

If you do not, then I will avoid coming to the area in the future. I was just there in May but unaware of the ban. Now that I
am aware of it, if it continues to stand, I refuse to patronize any Temecula Wine Country vintners.

Sincerely,

Allyson Smith

Mr. Stark,

I saw this article on Air1.com and wonder - since I live in Southeast Texas, does my support count in
California?

Also, I am a Christain and even so, I am ashamed at how many other Christians treat people and respond to non
Christian circumstances. It is sad to think what Christians are doing to cause so many non Christians to despise
us. It's no wonder they don't want us around. We most certainly do not need to support things which are against
God, but we do not need to condemn either- that is not our place, and it pushes people away from God rather
than draw them near. I think this is just as an important issue to address as not being aloud to build Church
buildings and have house worship and private schools, do you agree?

Dear Riverside County Planning Commission,
I am writing you to ask that you would please include religious institutions and private schools in the New Wine
Country Plan.
I am a resident of wine country, a mother of two boys, and PTA President at my youngest son's elementary
school. My husband is a firefighter. My children attend the youth group and children ministries at Calvary
Chapel Bible Fellowship. My husband and I attend services at Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowship twice per week
and I attend a women's bible study once per week. As you can see, as residents of wine country, our house of
worship is an integral part of our family.
Our church is teaching us to be the kind of citizens that God would want us to be as we are taught from the
Bible each time we attend any type of service at Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowship. I would think that a
community, as a whole, is better when you have citizens that are God fearing people residing in them. The
same citizens who faithfully pay their taxes, keep their property in compliance with all laws, and, in general,
abide by the laws set forth within the community. As a resident of this community, we deserve to have places
of worship included as they represent the institutions that are a vital to any true "community".
I ask again, that you would please include religious institutions and private schools in the New Wine Country
Plan.

I understand that houses of worship and private schools are not included in the new Wine Country
Plan. I respectfully request that you add religious institutions and private schools to this plan.
Okay...that was the canned part of the letter. (And it is a sincere request)....Here is the heartfelt,
blatant rest of the letter:

I was at the hearing yesterday on the 22
nd
. I sat through the whole thing...which really does give me
a lot of respect for the commissioners who have to do this on a regular basis.
I heard a lot of people...both winery owners and employees express anger and come up with
reasons as to why they do not want the Church... or its proposed school... included in the Wine
Country Plan. Mainly what I heard were 3 arguments:
1. The church and its school are incompatible uses and do not preserve the agriculture theme
2. The risk of lawsuit of insecticide spraying near a school is unacceptable
3. Concerns about increased traffic from the school
My thoughts:
1. Arent there churches in Europe that co-exist well among the wineries? In the Champagne
growing region in France I know of at least one instance where there was a church. It was also was
a winery.. (a monastery) that produced Dom Perringnon champagne. I believe it also had a school?
No, I think the church and its school are not "incompatible" with the wineries... especially if the
church plants 75% of its property with vineyards, and sells the grapes to the wineries.
2. The risk of insecticide spraying is mainly while "school is in session"... so why not have a
"spray day" so that the kids stay home if the insecticides have to be sprayed during school hours
(most of the spraying..if at all...has to be done at night, and before the winds pick up in the
morning). This "risk" argument does not really seem like a sound one to me..in that there are kids
and other people who live in the wine country and are there at night every night, all year round. If
the risks were really that significant...why are the residents not notified each time the wineries
spray? What about the winery employees and patrons of the wineries?? People driving by during
spraying?
There are set backs that the planners can require that could make this doable. I would suggest
having the church put the school "up front" by Rancho California road in the existing smaller
buildings (which would make it further away from Faulkner and further away from spraying)...and

have them build a beautiful sanctuary that looks like a winery on the area nearest Faulkner..that
would actually be a thing of beauty and only be used once a week or so. It could even be made to
look like an old European church or winery.
Getting back to the matter of risks... I heard that some of these wineries are actually allowing
people to come ride their horses there and drink wine...and actually condoning and encouraging it. I
find that absolutely unbelievable. I am a veterinarian. I advise against this practice. NOW. Alcohol
and horses do not mix. This is a recipe for disaster. I know of people personally who have been
killed doing this. Let me repeat myself. If you allow or condone people who have been
partaking of alcohol to get on horses and ride... you will have a fatality or life-changing injury
at some point within 5 years. You will also have a lawsuit. This is not a matter of "if" it is a
matter of "when". This is especially true for the general public who ride rental horses as wineries. I
cannot believe that the winery owners, and the county, and anyone else concerned, would even
dream of allowing this to occur on wine country property. The risk for a lawsuit in this situation is
exponentially higher than one from a possible spray incident at a church school. Hearing wineries
express fear of lawsuit from the church students, and turn a blind eye to this kind of risk is sadly
laughable. (I do believe that the trail network is a great project, and commend you on that
aspect...and plan on riding our horses on it someday...so please do not intertwine the two activities.
I am simply advising not to allow people to drink and ride...and the trails should avoid the general
winery public/traffic,,by at least 200 ft.. to minimize spooking the horses and showing a reasonable
attempt to protect the riders).
This brings me to my third topic...traffic.
3. The traffic that would come from the school..I believe.. is negligible (at 9:00am and again at
3:00pm weekdays) compared to the HUGE burden of traffic I have seen in the 20 years I have been
living in/near the wine country.
Lets also discuss the QUALITY of the traffic, vs quantity.
The traffic we see as residents or people commuting home via Rancho California rd is
HORRENDOUS, compared to how it used to be prior to all the wineries going in. And yes, people
ARE intoxicated when they are driving to and from wineries.
They drive erratically, do not signal, and are very very slow and inconsiderate. We as residents
know that there is a blind eye turned to this by the police and the county...and we think this is
because there is a lot at stake financially for these wineries, and they bring a lot of taxable revenue
in for the city and county. Therefore, we feel unprotected and without a voice. That is the
general consensus of the residents in the area. We simply avoid Rancho California rd on the
weekends for this reason. It is dangerous and very annoying. (Not to mention during the Balloon
and Wine festival). Let me ask you, though...arent the wineries legally responsible for these people
drinking and driving? Isnt that another lawsuit waiting to happen?
My husband had the unfortunate experience recently of pulling up behind a purple limousine at a
stop-sign on Rancho Calif rd....just in time to see the back window roll down and a woman vomit

out of it down the side of the limo. Isnt that lovely? Yes, the wineries do bring their flaws and
blemishes...but we residents also know that in these hard times, businesses need to survive, and we
support them anyway. Yes, in spite of all of this, I do support the wine country plan.
Well, I will leave you with that nice visual, and hope that this letter has somehow given you more
food for thought!
Thank you for your consideration :)
Sincerely,
Susan Eyer-Anderson, D.V.M.

Hello,

I am writing to express my strong conviction regarding Temecula Wine Country's bann against the building of
churches and private schools. I believe this to be a violation of our constitutional freedom. Please include
religious institutions and private schools in the New Wine Country Plan. Thank you for your consideration of

DO NOT INCLUDE
RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN THE NEW WINE COUNTRY PLAN.

The Wine Country Community Plan states:

"Mission Statement

The mission and vision of the Riverside County Wine Country Community Plan is to preserve vineyard lands
and to create an environment that encourages development of wineries with the goal of making the Temecula
Valley Southern California Wine Country known and respected worldwide, while maintaining the quality of life
for residential communities and the equestrian lifestyle within and around it."
I do not support the expansion of Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowship. This development does not encourage
preservation of vineyard lands that are unique to The Inland Empire for Temecula Wine Country. I am a
resident of Temecula and have enjoyed this unique enviroment since 1995.
Calvary Chapel has aquired land to meet the goals of their agenda that does not include the best interest of the
environment and the community. I am disgusted by the proganda and the petition statements presented by
supporters of this religious institution that fails to present the facts about this issue. I am a resident of this
community and I am aware of the facts, especially as a supporter of the Christian Faith and The Bible.
Thank you,

Hello Ms. Stark,



Can you please see that my attached letter gets forwarded to each of the members of the Planning Committee.

I appreciate your time and effort. Please let me know if there are any questions. Thank you.

Warmest Regards,

Meri Rosa-Pyrce

Church Expansion

My name is Meri Rosa-Pyrce. I am not a winery owner nor am I a parishioner of the Calvary
Bible Chapel Fellowship Church. I am just an average citizen that has no monetary affiliation
with the parties that are in dispute. I am, however, a very faithful and spiritual individual and
teach my children to be the same. I believe and worship God every day. I am by no means anti-
God or anti-worship. Please understand this, as this is very important.

My husband and I own property in the Temecula Wine Country. We purchased our land for our
family (we have 2 children, ages 15 and 13) because we absolutely adore and appreciate the
beauty, quaintness and stress-relief Wine Country has to offer. Whenever we travel down
Rancho California Road and pass Butterfield Road, I automatically get a sense of peace and
tranquility as I set my eyes on the vines and their beauty and breathe in the aromas of the
vineyards. For me, it is pure joy and such a wonderful feeling that takes me away from the
hustle and bustle of everyday life. What a glorious treasure we have in our own backyard. We
are very fortunate.

I write to you today in opposition of allowing the Calvary Bible Chapel Fellowship Church to
expand its current facility in Wine Country. I have no idea why a church would want to have its
place of worship located in the middle of an area that is designated for wine production and
clientele that drink alcohol. It doesnt appear to be a perfect fit, but more of an obvious oddity.
It is not called "Amusement Park Country", "Sports Country", "School Country", "Suburbia
Country", "Church Country" or "Corporate Country. It is called "Wine Country", and it is
called this for a reasonfor the rolling hills of planted vines and wineries scattered throughout.
This is what makes the area so precious, unique and desirable. The wineries fit in. It is the
wineries that spend a lot of money to maintain the vines, which in turn keeps the beauty of the
area alive and vibrant. It is the wineries that make the wine that attracts people from all over the
world who want to go wine tasting, have a good time and look forward to enjoying the ambiance
that Wine Country has to offer. Lastly, it is the wineries that put Wine Country on the map. The
last thing Wine Country needs are non-fitting establishments that take away from, not add to, the
beautiful setting and ambiance it offers. There are many areas to build and expand a church. I
dont believe Wine Country was intended to be that area. In addition, the traffic congestion that
this expansion will create will do no justice to any of the residents that live in the area. The two-
lane Rancho California road is already faced with negative traffic situations, and this expansion
will only make matters worse. And, if a school is allowed, this will only build upon the already
problematic traffic congestion that the residents are faced with daily. It is not a viable situation.

To end, if you allow this expansion, the requests for non-fitting establishments will not end. You
will be setting a precedence here. Your decision should not be taken lightly, as it can
undoubtedly have a negative effect on Wine Country and potentially destroy the vision that was
planned for the area. Please protect Wine Country from those who have other agendas and do
not want to follow what is in the original Mission Statementto preserve vineyard lands and to
create an environment that encourages development of wineries with the goal of making the
Temecula Valley Southern California Wine Country known and respected worldwide." Why
have a Mission Statement if you dont uphold it? God made Wine Country a diamond of
richness and splendor, and we need to preserve what God has given to us.

Respectfully Submitted,

To whom it may concern, I live in the diamond valley and have since 1995. I feel there are more then enough churches in
our area. Please leave the law the way it is. We or they do not need anymore. Once they get in there they are going to
push things on us. If and when I want to go to church there are many choices I have. Please for the freedom of the people
all the people in the valley. What is the REAL reason they want to get in there? There is more to the story that they are not
telling. When I noticed that Chic-Fil-la was going to be providing free lunch for them, that was more then enough for me to
send out this email.

Thank you for reading this.

Thankyouverymuch,

JonMcPherson





First, I would like to thank each of you for allowing me the opportunity to
speak with you via letter since I am unable to attend the hearing in person. As
a winemaker, I am tied closely to the harvest, and today, August 22
nd
, 2012, we
are harvesting Viognier from one of our estate vineyards. I am sending this
letter via email to each of you asking that you consider the following points
regarding the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy.
The CV Zone is now, and has always been an area of contention. Ever since I
first came to the Temecula Valley in 1985, development pressure has been
ever- present. The safeguards that were put in place back in the 80s and early
90s to keep uncontrolled growth in check, have, over time, been realized as
either short-sighted or in need of revision to counter the ever changing wine
market. The efforts of numerous individuals have been monumental in
maintaining the constraints that make wine country what it is today.
To this point, the business scope of wineries and vineyards which comprise
wine country has grown to include restaurants and hotels as compatible,
ancillary uses. When speaking about compatible uses, a restaurant
complements a winery, its wine. A hotel complements the destination
environment that wine country wants to imbue. Yet, the fact of the matter is
that without agriculture, none of this would be possible. Vineyards help to give
Wine Country its country atmosphere, and without land that is available to
plant grapes on, there will be no vineyards. And of course, No vineyards
translates into No wine. This is certainly a scenario that the Cucamonga Valley
(just 50 miles north of here) demonstrates very well. The loss of arable lands to
the industrialization and development of the greater Ontario area has seen a
once prominent viticultural area become little more than a tribute to an era
gone by. It may start slowly at first, a housing tract here, a gas station there,
but when non-compatible uses are allowed in an agricultural zone, it is
precedent setting. The restrictive zoning that allowed Temecula wine country
to flourish is the very zoning that will insure wine countrys long-term survival.
Secondly, the tax revenues that are generated by winery properties are
significant. Not only are property taxes part of the mix, so are sales taxes,
excise taxes, payroll taxes and room taxes which are a continual source of
income for the city, county, and state jurisdictions. This revenue stream
cannot be realized without the land needed for grape growing. No grapes, No
wine, No tax revenue.
You may have heard testimony to the effect that the Temecula wineries are
anti-religion or anti-church. To the contrary, I would assert my own beliefs
here, but the reality is this is a land use argument, and not a freedom of
religion issue. What religion any of us may believe in is a moot point, especially
when discussing land use issues. The proposed Calvary Chapel expansion
project goes beyond the scope of what the original country church set out to
embody. The issues that are tied to a project of this size are numerous, and
ultimately, are all in conflict with the original CV Zone Policy. The discussion
of allowing only this church in the valley, should this expansion project be
allowed to proceed, will bring forth RLUIPA lawsuits (under the Equal Terms
and Exclusion Provisions of RLUIPA) by other institutions that would like to
make a home in wine country.
Honestly, Wine Country is about wineries and vineyards. Other uses that do
not enhance or compliment this dichotomy need to be relegated to the
surrounding communities and areas which are zoned for and can better
accommodate those uses.
Thank you for the chance to speak with you in regards to my perspective on
this matter.

Sincerely,

Jon C McPherson

Schools in Wine Country, Beware of What you Wish For:

Here in the Temecula Valley we have one of the finest agricultural areas in the world. While the wine is
well documented, the produce that comes from this valley is some of the best available. Temecula is
rapidly becoming a hotbed for foodies throughout Southern California. The Temecula Farmers Market is
known throughout the Southland as a great place to shop. Cooking schools have expressed interest in
locating here because of the produce. We are one of the few places in Southern California where kids
and adults can visit a real working farm. A private school in Wine Country will only benefit those
families who can attend it, while Wine Country in general is a benefit to everyone in Riverside County.
The preservation of the Temecula Wine Country is paramount to the future of agriculture in this area.
Without the ability to grow, Wine Country becomes houses.
Agriculture is only pretty from a distance. Up close its dirty, dusty, noisy, and smells like chemicals or
compost. Successful agriculture takes space and neighbors who are understanding. Schools and
agriculture are not a good fit as neighbors. Schools have too much impact on what can happen on the
adjoining properties with regards to spray applications, fertilizers, and the ability to sell wine. Advisors
from the Riverside Agriculture Dept. have said it should not happen. One school will lead to more
schools and threaten the ability of their neighbors to grow grapes, sell wine and produce food. Without
grapes, Wine Country disappears and so do the wineries and the tourism they create. The local hotels
and restaurants will be empty and many more people are out of work. Take away the agriculture and
Temecula has no more tourism.
Agritourism was one of the main arguments against the Liberty Quarry. Without Wine Country and the
jobs, tourism and tax base it creates, the Supervisors decision about the quarry may be different next
time.
Be careful what you wish for! While what you want is a campus in Wine Country, what you may end up
with is a campus surrounded by houses downwind from a quarry.

Dear Ms.Mehta-Cooper:

I hope you are in receipt of my letter of August 23, stating my position for not planting
grapes in the Rancho California Highlands residental area.

Commissioner Petty has led me to believe that he will write into the proposal that
my 12 acres will not be subjected to the planting of grapes.

I have summarized my understandings in the enclosed attached letter to Commissioner Petty,
a letter on which I "cc"ed you.

If there is any thing more I need to do for my cause, will you please let me know by phone or by
e mail? When and how will I know that my property is indeed excluded from the demand to plant
grapes, in the event that I lot-split?

Thank you very much for your help.

Re: Wine Country Proposal
Parcel 924200010-1 (north side of Camino Sierra Road) 12 acres
Request NOT to be required to plant 75% in grapes

September 17, 2012

Dear Vice Chairman, Commissioner Petty:

This letter is to follow up my phone call to Mary Stark and to you on
Thursday, September 6. I believe you are in receipt of my letter of August 23
requesting not to have to plant my 12 acres in the Rancho California Highlands,
in the event that I or a future owner lot-splits into 2 parcels.

Thank you for understanding my concerns and for fighting for my cause.
In the phone call I requested an appointment with you. My understanding is that
Ms. Stark spoke with you and you replied to her that such an appointment would not
be necessary since you would try to write, into the proposal, terms so that my parcel
would not be subjected to the requirement to plant grapes.

If my understandings of your communication are different from yours, will you
please let me know by email or by phone call?

In the midst of so many requests from so many people, I do not want to fall
through the cracks. Is there anything more I need to do to support my cause? How and
when will I know that my parcel will not be subjected to the requirement to plant grapes?
Thank you and all the Commissioners for your help.

Sincerely yours,

COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE PLANNING DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN


PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) was initiated by the County
Board of Supervisors in 2008 to ensure that the region develops in an orderly manner that
preserves Temecula Valleys viticulture potential and enhances its economic contribution to the
County over the long term. The purpose of this Project is to provide a blueprint for future growth
that ensures that future development activities will enhance, and not impede, the quality of life
for existing and future residents, while providing opportunities for continued preservation and
expansion of winery and equestrian operations. The Project has been developed to achieve the
following four objectives:

1. To preserve and enhance viticulture potential, rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;
2. To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are
incidental to viticulture and equestrian operations;
3. To coordinate growth in a manner that avoids future land use conflicts; and
4. To ensure timely provision of appropriate public infrastructure and services that keeps
up with anticipated growth.

The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the General Plan in the
southwestern portion of unincorporated Riverside County. The Project covers approximately
18,990 acres of land located approximately three miles north of the San Diego County border,
east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake. The Project
includes General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729, and the
accompanying Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524.

ISSUES DISCUSSED IN FIRST HEARING:

This Project was discussed before the Planning Commission on J uly 25, 2012. After taking
public testimony from more than 50 members of the public, the Commission discussed specific
issues with the Project proposal and solicited additional information for consideration at the next
public hearing (August 22, 2012). Staff has organized those issues into the following broad
categories which will be explored in detail below:

1. Requirements to regulate noise;
2. Implementation of the proposed Trails Network;
3. Application of Ordinance No. 348.4729; and
4. Allowance of churches.

PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012

REQUIREMENTS TO REGULATE NOISE:

After hearing the public testimony, Commissioner Porras, Commissioner Roth and
Commissioner Snell raised concerns regarding noise generating from wineries (and their
incidental commercial uses) and its impact on existing and future residents of this region. The
Commissioners shared their specific ideas to regulate noise, some of which are addressed in
the current Project proposal.

During the Project development phase, similar concerns were raised regarding noise generating
from existing wineries. Many of these existing wineries and their commercial activities operated
without proper land use approvals. Therefore, the County engaged in a collaborative planning
and pro-active code enforcement approach to address the existing noise issues of the region.

The County staff created a database to identify all existing wineries and associated
commercial activities by conducting a comprehensive web-search of all businesses in
this region. This database identified that 46 wineries or other commercial uses were
operating without the appropriate County approvals.

The County Code Enforcement Department then provided advisory notices to these
businesses in order bring them in compliance with the appropriate County ordinances. If
those businesses had not applied for the appropriate County approval after 45-60 days,
they were cited with Code Violations and fines that increased with every citation. The
Department also created a specialized Wine Country Code Enforcement team to ensure
that the Code Officers were well-versed with code challenges unique to Wine Country.
Furthermore, the Department conducted weekend enforcement and provided a
dedicated phone-number to the area residents to file their complaints.

The aforementioned experience was used by the County staff and Ad Hoc Advisory Committee
as they engaged in developing a proposal for this Project. The following section outlines all the
various areas of the proposed Project, which are designed to regulate noise in this region and to
avoid land use conflicts in the future.

1) General Plan Amendment No. 1077:

The proposed General Plan Amendment No. 1077, through addition of the Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area, requires larger lot sizes for residential subdivisions and incidental
commercial uses as well as promotes clustered development. These design features of the
proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area are anticipated to reduce noise related
conflicts in this region.

a) The proposed Policy Area policy SWAP 1.5 restricts residential density for subdivisions
regardless of their underlying land use designations. This requirement would decrease
the number of residential units that would be exposed to wineries and their commercial
activities as well as would encourage residential subdivisions in the Wine Country-
Residential District.

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 3 of 15


SWAP 1.5 Require a density of ten (10) acres minimum for tentative approval of
residential tract and parcel maps after (adoption date) regardless of the
underlying land use designation except in the Wine Country Residential District
where a density of five (5) acres minimum shall apply.

b) The proposed Policy Area also promotes clustered development in a greater geographic
area (approximately 18,990 acres) than its proceeding policy area the Citrus Vineyard
Policy Area (approximately 7,576 acres). Furthermore, the proposed policy SWAP 1.15
requires that at least 75% of the project area be set aside as vineyards or equestrian
land compared to only 50% of the project area in the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area. These
implementing clustered developments are anticipated to provide contiguous open space
buffers between residential subdivisions and winery uses, which would reduce potential
land use conflicts in the future.

SWAP 1.15 Encourage tentative approvals of residential tract and parcel maps to
cluster development in conjunction with on-site vineyards or equestrian land
provided that the overall project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit
per five (5) acres. While the lot sizes in a clustered development may vary,
require a minimum lot size of 1 acre, with at least 75% of the project area
permanently set-aside as vineyards or equestrian land.

c) The current Citrus Vineyard Policy Area allows for lodging and special occasion facilities
without a winery, which does not promote the areas viticulture potential as envisioned in
its intent. The proposed Policy Area reinforces the areas viticulture potential and rural
characteristics by requiring wineries and equestrian establishments as the primary use
for all incidental commercial activities. Furthermore, the higher intensity commercial uses
are proposed on larger lot sizes compared to the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de los
Caballos Policy Areas, which would further reduce potential land use conflicts in the
future.

SWAP 1.4 Permit limited commercial uses such as wineries, sampling rooms,
and retail wine sales establishments on a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres to
promote viticulture potential of this region.
SWAP 1.11 Allow incidental commercial uses such as special occasion facilities,
hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries as
defined in the implementing zones.
SWAP 1.12 Encourage equestrian establishments that promote the equestrian
lifestyle as described in the Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) Zone.
SWAP 1.13 Permit incidental commercial uses such as western stores, polo
grounds, or horse racing tracks, petting zoos, event grounds, horse auction
facilities, horse show facilities, animal hospitals, restaurants, delicatessens, and
special occasion facilities in conjunction with commercial equestrian
establishments on lots larger than 10 acres to encourage equestrian tourism in
this community.

2) Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729:

To implement the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, Ordinance Amendment No.
348.4729 proposes to create four Winery County Zones by adding Section 14.90 through
Section 14.96 in Ordinance No. 348. The following sections of the proposed Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729 through permitted uses section and their development standards are
anticipated to reduce noise related conflicts in this region:

a) Wine Country Winery Zone:

Section 14.92.b.5. allows special occasion facilities, bed and breakfast inns, country
inns, hotels and restaurants with an established winery through a plot plan on 20 acres
minimum.
Section 14.92.c.2. allows resorts, amphitheaters, and golf courses with an established
winery through a conditional use permit on 40 minimum acres.

b) Wine Country Equestrian Zone:

Section 14.94.b.5 allows a commercial equestrian establishment through a plot plan on
10 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.b.6 allows petting zoos, polo-grounds, and horse show facilities with a
commercial equestrian establishment through a plot plan on 10 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.b.7 allows western style stores and restaurants with a commercial
equestrian establishment through a plot plan on 20 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.c.2 allows horse racing tracks or rodeo arenas and large scale hospitals
with a commercial equestrian establishment through a conditional use permit on 50
acres minimum.
Section 14.94.c.3 allows a horse racing track or rodeo arena and large scale hospital
with a commercial equestrian establishment through a conditional use permit on 100
acres minimum.

c) Development Standards:

Section 14.96.a.1 requires site layouts and building designs to minimize noise impacts
on surrounding properties and to comply with Ordinance No. 847.
Section 14.96.e.4 requires minimum setbacks of hundred feet (100) and three hundred
feet (300) when the facility is located next to Rancho California Road, Monte De Oro
Road, Anza Road, Glen Oaks Road, Pauba Road, De Portola Road, Buck Road, Borel
Road, Butterfield Stage Road, Calle Contento Road, Camino Del Vino Road, and
Highway 79 South for special occasion facilities.
Section 14.96.e.7 ensures loading, trash, and service areas for special occasion facilities
are screened by structures or landscaping and are located and designed in such a
manner as to minimize noise and odor impacts to adjacent properties.
Section 14.96.e.7 requires that all special occasion facilities conduct a noise study or an
acoustical analysis if an outdoor facility is proposed. Based on such study or analysis,

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 5 of 15


the Planning Director may deny or require as a condition of approval that the project
applicant enter into a good neighbor agreement with the surrounding neighbors.
Section 14.97.f.5 limits two hotel rooms per gross acre for lodging facilities.
Section 14.97.f.10 ensures that loading, trash, and service areas for lodging facilities are
screened by structures or landscaping and is located and designed in such a manner as
to minimize noise and odor impacts to adjacent properties.

3) Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) No. 524 - Noise Mitigation
Measures:

The Draft PEIR No. 524 provides Exhibit 4.12-2 (Attachment A), which identifies Existing and
Anticipated Winery Sites with Special Occasion Facilities potential. However, it will be
speculative to predict the nature, frequency, scale, and site-specific design feature of these
future special occasion facilities. Instead, the PEIR provides the following carefully crafted
Mitigation Measures to reduce noise impacts from implementing projects, including noise from
construction activities, winery operations and special occasion facilities.

NOI-1 All implementing projects shall comply with the following noise reduction measures during grading
and building activities:
If construction occurs within one-quarter mile of an inhabited dwelling, construction activities
shall be limited to the daytime hours of 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the months of June
through September, and to 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the months of October through May.
To minimize noise from idling engines, all vehicles and construction equipment shall be
prohibited from idling in excess of three minutes when not in use.
Best efforts should be made to locate stockpiling and/or vehicle staging area as far as
practicable from existing residential dwellings.
Equipment and trucks shall utilize the best available noise control techniques (e.g., improved
mufflers, equipment redesign, use of intake silencers, ducts, engine enclosures, and
acoustically-attenuating shields or shrouds, wherever feasible).
Impact tools (e.g., jack hammers, pavement breakers, and rock drills) shall be hydraulically or
electronically powered wherever possible to avoid noise associated with compressed air
exhaust from pneumatically powered tools. However, where use of pneumatic tools is
unavoidable, an exhaust muffler shall be used; this muffler can lower noise levels from the
exhaust by up to about ten dBA. External jackets on the tools themselves shall be used
where feasible, and this could achieve a reduction of five dBA. Quieter procedures shall be
used, such as drills rather than impact equipment, whenever feasible.
Stationary construction noise sources shall be located as far from adjacent receptors as
possible, and they shall be muffled and incorporate insulation barriers, or other measures to
the extent feasible.
NOI-2 Implementing project proponents shall submit a list of measures to respond to and track
complaints pertaining to construction noise, ongoing throughout demolition, grading, and/or
construction. These measures may include the following:
A sign posted on-site pertaining the permitted construction days and hours and complaint
procedures and who to notify in the event of a problem. The sign may also include a listing of
both the County and construction contractors telephone numbers (during regular
construction hours and off-hours); and

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 6 of 15


A pre-construction meeting may be held with the job inspectors and the general
contractor/on-site project manager to confirm that noise measures and practices (including
construction hours, neighborhood notification, posted signs, etc.) are completed.

NOI-3 All implementing projects involving a new winery or expansion of an existing winery shall be
reviewed by the Riverside County Office of Industrial Hygiene and include at least the following
conditions:
The hours of operation for tasting rooms associated with wineries shall be limited to 9:00 a.m.
to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Winery District and 10:00 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Equestrian and Residential Districts.
Mechanical equipments including but not limited to, de-stemming, crushing, and refrigeration
equipment shall be enclosed or shielded for noise attenuation. Alternatively, the proponent
may submit a Noise Study prepared by a qualified acoustical analyst that demonstrates that
the unenclosed/unshielded equipment would not exceed the Countys allowable noise levels.
The hours of operation for shipping facilities associated with wineries shall be limited to 9:00
a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Winery District and 10:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Equestrian and Residential
Districts.
Shipping facilities and parking areas which abut residential parcels shall be located away
from sensitive land uses and be designed to minimize potential noise impacts upon nearby
sensitive land uses.
Site-specific noise-attenuating features such as hills, berms, setbacks, block walls, or other
measures shall be considered for noise attenuation in noise-producing areas of future
wineries including, but not limited to, locations of mechanical equipment, locations of shipping
facilities, access, and parking areas.
NOI-4 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall be required to conduct a
noise study prior to its approval. Similarly, all implementing projects involving an outdoor special
occasion facility shall be required to conduct an acoustical analysis (that shows the noise
contours outside the property boundary) prior to its approval.
The said noise study or acoustical analysis shall be submitted to the Office of Industrial
Hygiene for review and comments.
Based on those comments, the implementing project shall be conditioned to mitigate noise
impacts to the applicable County noise standards through site design and buildings
techniques.
Prior to the issuance of any building permit for the special occasion facility, those noise
mitigation measures shall have received the necessary permits from Building and Safety
Department.
Prior to issuance of occupancy permit for the special occasion facility, those noise mitigation
measures shall be constructed/implemented.

NOI-5 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall be reviewed by the Riverside
County Office of Industrial Hygiene and include at least the following conditions:
All special event venders (e.g. DJs, musical bands, etc.) shall be notified regarding noise
conditions of approval .
Outdoor special events and associated audio equipment, sound amplifying equipment, and/or
performance of live music shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday
through Sunday.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 7 of 15


Noise levels shall be kept below levels prescribed in the Countys General Plan Noise
Element and County noise Ordinances No. 847 by using a decibel-measuring device to
measure music sound levels when amplified music is used.
Clean-up activities associated with special events shall terminate no later than midnight.
Outdoor speakers for all scheduled events shall be oriented toward the center of the property
and away from adjoining land uses.
Padding/carpeting shall be installed under music speakers for early absorption of music.
NOI-6 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall include at least the following
conditions to ensure proper enforcement of the County Ordinances and project conditions:
After issuance of two Code Violation Notices for excessive noise, noise measurements shall
be performed by the Office of Industrial Hygiene for every event at the property line, to
determine if the Noise Ordinance and project conditions are being followed during the special
events.
If violations of the Noise Ordinance or project conditions are found, the County shall
reconsider allowed hours of operation, number of guests, amount of special events per year,
or approval of the specific facility.
The proponents shall be required to pay fees assessed per the Department's hourly rate
pursuant to Ordinance No. 671.
NOI-7 Prior to the issuance of each grading permit, all implementing projects shall demonstrate
compliance with the following measures to reduce the potential for human annoyance and
architectural/structural damage resulting from elevated groundborne noise and vibration levels:
Pile driving within a 50-foot radius of occupied units or historic or potentially historic
structures shall utilize alternative installation methods where possible (e.g., pile cushioning,
jetting, pre-drilling, cast-in-place systems, resonance-free vibratory pile drivers).
If no alternative to pile driving is deemed feasible, the preexisting condition of all designated
historic buildings within a 50-foot radius of proposed construction activities shall be evaluated
during a preconstruction survey. The preconstruction survey shall determine conditions that
exist before construction begins for use in evaluating damage caused by construction
activities. Fixtures and finishes within a 50-foot radius of construction activities susceptible to
damage shall be documented (photographically and in writing) prior to construction. All
damage shall be repaired back to its preexisting condition.
Vibration monitoring shall be conducted prior to and during pile driving operations occurring
within 100 feet of the historic structures. Every attempt shall be made to limit construction-
generated vibration levels during pile driving and impact activities in the vicinity of the historic
structures.
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROPOSED TRAILS NETWORK:

A significant amount of public testimony was regarding the proposed Trails Network. Most of the
testimony supported the current proposal and encouraged the Commission to consider
implementation aspects associated with this proposal. The Commission asked staff to provide
them with a clear understanding on the proposed Trails Network and its implementation
information. The following table outlines various trail classifications and their respective
implementation information as envisioned in the proposed GPA No. 1077. In addition,
Attachment B provides a map of each proposed trail classification and their respective cross-
sections as proposed in the Project.

APPLICATION OF ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 348.4729:

In the first public hearing, a few members of the public asked questions regarding which type of
activities will fall under the proposed Projects purview and will require a zone change
application to ensure parcel specific zoning consistency. It was evident that further clarification
on this subject was essential to ease stakeholders concerns now, and the Projects
implementation in the future. The following section offers staffs interpretation of the proposal on
this subject (Attachment C).

Ordinance No. 348.4729 is a text amendment to the Countys Land Use Ordinance (Ordinance
No. 348) that adds four new zoning classifications. The four new zoning classifications (Wine
Country Zones) are: Wine Country Winery Zone, Wine Country Winery Existing Zone, Wine
Country Equestrian Zone, and Wine Country Residential Zone. The Wine Country Zones
would allow the County to implement the goals and policies of the proposed Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area of the Riverside County General Plan. If the Board of Supervisors
adopts Ordinance No. 348.4729, then all future requests for discretionary land use entitlements
and land divisions within the Policy Area will require a change of zone to bring the property's
zoning classification within one of the Wine Country zones to be consistent with the General
Plan and would update the County's zoning map accordingly.

If the future proposed use for the property within the Wine Country Policy Area is a use
that is permitted by right under both Ordinance 348.4729 and the zoning classification
for the property that was in place immediately before the adoption of Ordinance No.
348.4729, then a change of zone application would not be required.

However, if the proposed future use is permitted by right under Ordinance No. 348.4729
but it was not permitted by right under the zoning classification in place immediately
before the adoption of Ordinance No. 348.4729, then a change of zone application
would be required.

ALLOWANCE OF CHURCHES:

Approximately 25 members of the public commented on the County not allowing churches in the
Project proposal. After hearing public testimony, the Commission directed staff to provide them
options that would allow places of religious worship in the Project proposal.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 11 of 15



The following information is provided in response to that direction:

Existing Condition:

Currently, under Ordinance No. 348 churches, temples and other places of religious worship are
not permitted uses in the C/V zoning classification. However, churches, temples and other
places of religious worship are permitted in approximately 27 of the Countys 38 zoning
classifications. If churches, temples and other places of religious worship wish to locate in one
of these 27 zones, they would need to obtain a plot plan or public use permit for the use
depending on the zoning classification. Similar nonreligious uses such as educational
institutions, fraternal lodge halls and recreational facilities are also required to obtain a plot plan
or public use permit in the specific zoning classification.

Additionally, the Projects boundaries apply to approximately 18,990 acres, while the
unincorporated area of Riverside County covers approximately 4,121,114 acres. As a result, the
Project applies to less than 1% of the land within Riverside County, leaving ample opportunity to
locate churches, temples and other places of worship elsewhere.

The Project:

The current Citrus Vineyard Rural Policy Area and C/V zone, as well as the proposed Wine
Country Policy Area and its implementing Wine Country zones, are developed to preserve and
enhance the viticulture potential of this region. Furthermore, these regulating documents allow
for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are necessary to support economic
viability of the viticulture operations.

On December 28, 2009, the County issued a Notice of Preparation for the Wine Country
Community Plan Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524 (PEIR No. 524). On
J anuary 19, 2010, the County held a Scoping Meeting to discuss the scope and content
of the environmental information for the PEIR No. 524. At this point in time, churches,
temples, and other places of religious worship were not allowed in this region.
Furthermore, no application was filed for a church that indicated otherwise, or no
comments were received at the Scoping Meeting that suggested otherwise.

In March of 2011, Calvary Church submitted a Plot Plan application to expand its
existing church that is operating as a legal non-conforming use Public Use Permit No.
798 (PUP No. 798). PUP No. 798 was approved in 1999.

In September of 2011, the Planning Department developed a screen-check version of
the PEIR No. 524, which established the cut-off date for the proposed projects to be
included in the cumulative analysis. Since Calvary Church expansion application was
filed prior to this date, it was included in the PEIRs cumulative analysis for the Project.
However, Calvary Churchs proposed use that is the subject of the application is not a
component of the Project. Calvary Churchs application for expansion is being processed
separately and it is not before the Commission at this time for consideration.

Page 12 of 15


On December 05, 2011, the County issued a Notice of Availability of the Draft PEIR No.
524 for 60-days public review and comment period.

Issues of Consideration:

It should be stated that although a private school is a component of the Calvary Church
expansion proposal, public testimony at the first public hearing remained focused on the church
only. The Commission did not engage in any discussion regarding allowance of private schools
in the current Project proposal. However, staff wants to mention that private schools, like
churches, are not currently listed as a permitted use in the C/V zone, proposed Wine Country
zones, or Section 18.29 of Ordinance 348 through a Public Use Permit.

Alcohol Licensing Requirements:

Wineries in the Temecula Valley Wine Country generally receive #02 winegrower license,
which is a non-retail license from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC). The California Business and Professional Code Section 23358 (d) provides the following
for Alcohol License #02:

The department (ABC) may, if it shall determine for good cause that the granting of any such
privilege would be contrary to public welfare or morals, deny the right to exercise any on-sale
privilege authorized by this section in either a bona fide eating place the main entrance to which
is within 200 feet of a school or church, or on the licensed winery premises, or both.

If a winery wishes to sell distilled spirits, the ABC would require a #47 license to sell such spirits.
This license is considered a retail license. As a result, the license would be subject to the
restrictions set-forth in the California Business and Professional Code Section 23789, which
provides the following:

a) The department (ABC) is specifically authorized to refuse the issuance, other than renewal
or ownership transfer, of any retail license for premises located within the immediate vicinity
of churches and hospitals,
b) The department (ABC) is specifically authorized to refuse the issuance, other than renewal
or ownership transfer, of any retail license for premises located within at least 600 feet of
schools and public playgrounds or nonprofit youth facilities, including, but not limited to,
facilities serving Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, or Campfire Girls. This distance shall be measured
pursuant to rules of the department.

Riverside County Agricultural Commissioners Requirements:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country is located within the San J acinto District of the Riverside
County Agricultural Commissioners jurisdiction. The Agricultural Commissioner has specific
standard requirements for pesticide use conditions within this district. Per those requirements,
no foliar applications of pesticides are allowed within mile and no aircraft applications of
pesticides are allowed within mile of a school in session. Although aircraft applications of
pesticides are only occasionally used in the Temecula Valley Wine Country, foliar applications
are absolutely critical in sustaining vineyards and other agricultural operations in this region.

Options for Consideration:

After considering various aspects associated with this issue, staff proposes the following three
options to the Commission for their consideration. The Commission may elect one of the three
options, or consider creating a new one by combining the various components set-forth in the
three staff proposals.

OPTION 1 Allow Churches in the Project:

In their concluding remarks for the first hearing, the Planning Commission directed staff to
analyze and develop an option that includes places of religious worship in the Project proposal.
Option 1 takes that direction literally and proposes the following changes in the Project
proposal.

1. GPA No. 1077: In the proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, a general
discussion regarding places of religious worship will be added. In addition, the proposed
SWAP 1.11 (under Wine Country Winery District) and SWAP 1.13 (under Wine
Country Equestrian District) will be revised to add churches, temples, and places of
religious worship as permitted uses in these districts.

2. Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729: The proposed Article XIVd will need to be revised
at multiple locations as follows:

a. Section 14.90 (Intent) A general discussion regarding places of religious will be
added.
b. Section 14.91 (Definitions) A definition for churches, temples, and places of
religious worship will be added.
c. Section 14.92b (Wine Country Winery Zone Conditionally Permitted Uses with
a Plot Plan) Churches, temples, and places of religious worship on a minimum
gross parcel size of twenty (20) acres will be added as the sixth permitted use.
d. Section 14.94c (Wine Country Equestrian Zone Conditionally Permitted Uses
with a Conditional Use Permit) Churches, temples, and places of religious
worship on a minimum gross parcel size of hundred (100) acres will be added as
the fourth permitted use.
e. Section 14.96e (Development Standards for Special Occasion Facilities) In the
introductory paragraph, a discussion for churches, temples, and places of
religious worship will be added.

The development scenario described in the proposed Project, and analyzed in the associated
PEIR No. 524, has not accommodated the intensity of multiple churches, temples, and places of
religious worship in this region. Should the Commission recommends this option, additional
analyses will be necessary which may result in a recirculation of the Draft PEIR, including but
not be limited to, land use, transportation and circulation, air quality, agricultural resources, and
noise.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 14 of 15


OPTION 2 Remain with the existing Project Proposal:

In Option 2, the Commission recommends processing the current proposal for the Project and
Calvary Church continues to process the land use applications it submitted to the Planning
Department. No changes will be made to the proposed Project. The Calvary Church application
will be processed separately in the future, and it is not before the Commission at this time for
consideration.

OPTION 3 Exclusion of Calvary Parcels from the Project Boundary:

In Option 3, the Commission recommends to exclude both the Calvary Church parcels from the
proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. The Project proposal will be changed as
follows:

1. GPA No. 1077: The proposed Southwest Area Plan Policy Area Figure 4 and 4a will be
revised to remove the two Calvary Church parcels (Assessors Parcel Numbers: 943-
250-021 and 943-250-018).

Upon adoption of the Project, the two Calvary Church parcels will be excluded from the Projects
boundary and will maintain their existing land use designation and zoning classification. A text
change amendment to Ordinance No. 348 will still be needed to allow churches, temples, and
other places of religions worship as permitted uses in the C/V zoning classification. Since the
parcels are being removed from the Project, such amendment would only apply to those two
parcels and it should be able to tier off the environmental analyses contained in PEIR No. 524.


RECOMMENDATION:

DISCUSS AND CONTINUE to August 29 or September 26, 2012

1.1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In 2008, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors (BOS) directed County staff to undertake the
development of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) in an effort to both
preserve Temecula Valleys distinct rural character and enhance its economic contribution to the County
over the long term.
The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan includes the adoption of General Plan Amendment
No. 1077, as well as the accompanying Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 (Project), which
will ensure consistency between the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The Project proposes a host of
revisions to the Southwest Area Plan of the current County General Plan to update existing policies,
maps, and implementing directions related to potential implementing projects within the Project area.
Refer to Section 3.0 for a detailed description of the various Project characteristics.
1.2 PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The purpose of the Project is to provide a blueprint for growth to ensure that future development
activities will enhance, not impede, the quality of life for existing and future residents, while providing
opportunities for continued development and expansion of winery and equestrian operations within this
part of the County.
The Project has been developed to achieve the following goals:
Ensure that the Wine Country region develops in an orderly manner that maximizes the areas
viticulture and related uses, and balances the need to protect existing rural lifestyles in the area.
Ensure that the Riverside County General Plan and its supporting regulatory documents, such as
the Zoning Ordinance and Design Guidelines, provide a comprehensive blueprint that will
achieve the communitys vision.
Ensure adequate provisions for the establishment of wineries and equestrian operations,
associated auxiliary uses, and other compatible uses, as deemed appropriate.
To achieve these goals, the Project incorporates the following objectives:
To preserve and enhance the Wine Country regions viticulture potential, rural life style and
equestrian activities.
To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that is incidental to
viticulture activities.
To coordinate where, and under what circumstances, future growth should be accommodated.
To develop provisions to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated with the
appropriate public services, infrastructure and other basic necessities for a healthy, livable
community.

festivals, and equestrian events. The TMP shall provide
detail such as traffic management strategies (such as
traffic coordinators, event signage, staggered
arrival/departure times, etc) for events that cause a
substantial increase of vehicles entering or exiting the
Project during a small period of time. The TMP may
also be required to include parking strategies to aid
traffic management such as a drop-off/pick-up zone
and/or offsite shuttle arrangements, including potential
use of the City of Temeculas old town parking structure
on Main Street.
TRF-3 The County shall implement a Traffic Impact Fee (TIF)
Program for the Project area. This Program shall collect
fair share contributions toward identified mitigation
measures (as outlined in the WCP Fair Share and
Phasing Assessment conducted by Fehr and Peers)
within the Project area and within the City of Temecula,
and the County shall enter into an agreement with the
City of Temecula to implement the identified
improvements. Implementing projects shall also make
fair share contributions to revise the Adaptive Traffic
Signal Timing Program through the above-mentioned
TIF as well, for those intersection locations that would
experience improved levels of service with
implementation of this Program. In addition,
implementing projects shall also make fair share
contributions for the Transportation Uniform Mitigation
Fee (TUMF) Program for those facilities that are eligible
for improvements through the TUMF Program.
Although participation in these Programs would reduce
the impacts to most locations to a less than significant
level, some measures are considered infeasible, and the
impact would remain significant and unavoidable. The
specific locations, impact levels, identified
improvements, and basis for those locations that would
experience significant and unavoidable impacts, are
described below.
Roadways
Impacts to the following roadways would be less than

1.6 SIGNIFICANT AND UNAVOIDABLE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
While the specific mitigation measures summarized above would reduce the level of many significant
impacts to a less than significant level, the Draft EIR identified the following areas where, after
implementation of feasible mitigation, the Project may nonetheless result in impacts which cannot be
fully mitigated. Various benefits would accrue from implementation of the Project, which must be
weighed against the potential adverse effects of Project implementation in deciding whether to approve
the Project. These potential benefits will be set forth in a Statement of Overriding Considerations,
which is required by CEQA prior to approving a project with unavoidable significant impacts. In addition,
as discussed in the Draft EIR, the proposed Project, while representing a substantial increase in new
development compared to existing conditions, it is considerably less dense than currently allowed in the
Countys General Plan Policies and zoning classifications.
PROJECT IMPACTS
Agricultural and Forestry Resources
While the Project policies and implementing zoning classifications would increase the acreage of
designated Agricultural land uses and may in turn increase the acreage of agricultural uses, it is possible
that implementing project sites could be located on Prime Farmland (or another designation indicating
agricultural suitability) and would allow development of up to 25 percent of the total Project area based
on proposed Policy SWAP 1.2 which allows up to 25 percent of a subject site to be developed with
winery and other associated facilities (e.g., delicatessens, tasting rooms, special event facilities, etc.).
Additionally, under the Project, active agricultural land would be allowed to convert 25 percent of its
land to non-agricultural uses. Therefore, the Project could convert agriculturally suitable farmland, such
as Prime Farmland, and active agricultural land to non-agricultural uses. As such, this potential
conversion would generate a significant, unavoidable impact on agricultural resources.
Air Quality
Unavoidable significant impacts have been identified for Project-level and cumulative air quality impacts
related to construction and operations activities (i.e., stationary and mobile source emissions) as well as
air quality impacts on sensitive receptors.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Implementation and compliance with the Countys policies will ensure that impacts from GHG emissions
are minimized. However, construction and operation of implementing projects would create an
increase in GHG emissions that are above South Coast Air Quality Management Districts (SCAQMD)
draft mass emission thresholds and CARBs per capita threshold.
Compliance with proposed County of Riverside SWAP policies will ensure consistency with the numeric
GHG-reduction goals of AB 32 and be consistent with promulgated plans, polices, and regulations
governing the reduction of GHG emissions. Because these features and measures would meaningfully
reduce Project GHG emissions and are consistent with the state and local goals, the Project is supportive
of the States goals regarding global climate change. However, Project impacts to global climate change,
both at the Project level and cumulative level, are still potentially significant and unavoidable, due to the
overall increase in emissions as compared to existing conditions.

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-48
Noise
Given that it is not possible to predict the specific nature, frequency or location of all of the wineries or
all of the special events, some stationary source activity may still represent unacceptable noise exposure
within the Wine Country, particularly for existing sensitive receptors. This unavoidable impact will be
reduced through compliance with policies, ordinances and Mitigation Measures NOI-1 through NOI-6
noted above, and will be implemented by the County on a project-by-project basis.
In addition, due to the amount of traffic trips that would be generated in association with the proposed
permitted land uses, mobile source noise impacts would be significant and unavoidable.
Public Services and Utilities
Fire Protection Services
Implementation of the Project would have a cumulative adverse impact on the Fire Departments ability
to provide an acceptable level of service. Impacts include an increased number of emergency and public
service calls and a decreased level of service due to the increased presence of structures, traffic, and
population (including transient tourists).
The availability of sufficient funding to equip and staff new facilities may not be available over the long
term and the ability of the Department to negotiate for adequate funding for either construction or
long-term staffing with individual developers is uncertain. Accordingly, even with the implementation of
the proposed mitigation, the Project could result in an indirect, cumulatively considerable contribution
to a potentially significant cumulative impact.
Libraries
Based on the current Riverside County standard, there are insufficient library facilities available to
provide the targeted level of service to the Project area and the balance of the service area of the two
existing libraries in the Temecula area. Therefore, implementing projects within the Project area would
make an indirect but cumulatively considerable contribution to that existing deficiency, resulting in a
potentially significant cumulative impact on library facilities and services.
Traffic
The Project would generally improve operations compared to the adopted General Plan; however, long-
term operational traffic resulting from operation of the Project would still contribute to a potentially
significant and unavoidable impact related to degradation of levels of service in the Project area.
The Project would contribute a fair share contribution toward improving affected roadway segments
and intersections through a Community Facilities District (CFD) financing plan, as well as a fair share
contribution, which would allow the segments and intersections to operate at acceptable levels of
service. However, since some segments and/or intersections are controlled by the City of Temecula, the
Pechanga Band of Luiseo Indians and/or Caltrans, the County cannot guarantee implementation of the
identified improvements. In addition, remaining funding outside the CFD has not been guaranteed and
there is limited right-of-way to facilitate freeway and ramp expansion. Therefore, the levels of service
impacts are considered potentially significant and unavoidable.


1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-49
Growth-inducing Impact
The Project will allow for various onsite and offsite infrastructure improvements that could remove
impediments to growth and/or provide for additional capacity. The Project could also result in direct job
growth through increased employment opportunities as a result of the proposed update of the existing
Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) and other elements of the General Plan. Due to its size, its incremental
implementation, its impact on infrastructure, and the potential direct and indirect economic growth
associated with it, the Project would be viewed as growth-inducing pursuant to CEQA.
CUMULATIVE IMPACTS
Air Quality
Unavoidable significant impacts have been identified for Project-level and cumulative air quality impacts
related to construction and operations activities (i.e., stationary and mobile source emissions) as well as
air quality impacts on sensitive receptors. If the County of Riverside approves the Project, the County
shall be required to adopt findings of fact in accordance with Section 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines, as
well as adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations in accordance with Section 15093 of the CEQA
Guidelines.
Greenhouse Gases
Implementation and compliance with the Countys policies will ensure that impacts from GHG emissions
are minimized. However, construction and operation of implementing projects would create an
increase in GHG emissions that are above SCAQMDs draft mass emission thresholds and CARBs per
capita threshold. Compliance with proposed County of Riverside SWAP policies will ensure consistency
with the numeric GHG-reduction goals of AB 32 and be consistent with promulgated plans, polices, and
regulations governing the reduction of GHG emissions. Because these features and measures would
meaningfully reduce Project GHG emissions and are consistent with the state and local goals, the Project
is supportive of the States goals regarding global climate change. However, Project impacts to global
climate change, both at the Project level and cumulative level, are still potentially significant and
unavoidable, due to the overall increase in emissions as compared to existing conditions.
Noise
Buildout of the Project would result in potential cumulative noise level increases along major roadways.
Project implementation would result in significant cumulative noise impacts that could not be mitigated
with the implementation of the proposed policies and mitigation measures. Thus, the Project would
substantially contribute to cumulative mobile source noise impacts.
It may also be possible for multiple stationary sources such as special events or wineries to operate
concurrently and in close proximity, which could further add to cumulative noise impacts. The Project
may result in significant stationary source impacts, even with implementation of mitigation measures
and applicable policies and ordinances.
Public Services and Utilities
The Project may, in combination with existing conditions and other future implementing projects, result
in unavoidable significant cumulative impacts in the areas of fire protection services and library services.

Traffic
The Project may, in combination with existing conditions and other future implementing projects, result
in a conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance, or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the
performance of the circulation system and level of service degradation to unacceptable levels. The
Project may result in significant traffic-related impacts, even with implementation of mitigation
measures and applicable policies and ordinances.
1.7 SUMMARY OF PROJECT ALTERNATIVES
This is a summary of the Project alternatives described in Section 6.0, Alternatives, which contains a
detailed discussion. The Project alternatives have been designed to achieve the Project objectives and to
minimize/reduce/alleviate identified environmental impacts, or were specifically requested for
consideration during the preparation of the EIR.
The Project alternatives considered in EIR No. 524 are:
No Project/Existing General Plan Policies and Zoning Classifications Alternative
Reduced Density (25% Reduction) Alternative
Alternatives rejected from further consideration:
Pending General Plan Amendments Approval Alternative (Pending Amendments Alternative)
Alternative Location Alternative
One Policy Area / One Zone Alternative
No Build Scenario/Existing Condition Alternative
Descriptions of the first three rejected alternatives (i.e., Pending General Plan Amendments Approval,
Alternative Location, and One Policy/One Zone Alternatives) are provided in Section 6.4 of this Draft EIR.
However, a description of the No Build Scenario/Existing Condition Alternative is provided, as it
describes the CEQA baseline against which the Project is analyzed (an alternative in which only existing
development occupies the site).
NO BUILD SCENARIO/EXISTING CONDITION ALTERNATIVE
The No Build Scenario/Existing Condition Alternative (No Build Scenario) assumes that the future
implementing projects envisioned under the Project would not occur, and the Project site would remain
in its existing condition. This alternative assumes the breakdown of land use acreages listed in Table
3.0-1, Existing Land Use Acreages, provided in the Project Description. Essentially, this alternative
assumes that only the existing development that is presently on the ground would occupy the Project
site into the future.
No additional implementing projects would be considered/approved/developed within the Project site.
The existing wineries, residential, equestrian and vacant, open space would remain, and property
owners may continues to utilize their parcel as they are currently being used.
It is important to note that this alternative does not reflect the future growth envisioned in the
Southwest Area Plan, existing Citrus Vineyard Policy Area, or the Project objectives. The site is currently

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-51
designated for development in a manner relatively similar to the Project (albeit with more development
intensity and density and more incompatibility in land uses). The Countys General Plan reflects this
designation, and there have been no indications by County staff, elected officials or the public through
the EIR scoping process that there is a desire to preserve the site in its current state and without
additional infrastructure support.
The No Build Alternative does not meet many of the basic Project objectives because it does not
implement a comprehensive and cohesive plan for the physical and economic development of the
Project area, does not enhance the Wine Country regions viniculture potential, rural lifestyle and
equestrian activities, does not continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities,
does not coordinate where and under what circumstances future growth should be accommodated, and
does not develop provisions to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated with appropriate
public services, infrastructure and other basic necessities for a healthy, livable community.
It does not provide for adequate water distribution, sewer, flood control, circulation, and water quality
improvements. The No Build Alternative would also be inconsistent with the County General Plan,
would fail to provide increased revenue, employment and entertainment opportunities within the
County, and would not provide the various infrastructure and service improvements associated with the
Project. For these reasons, this Alternative is not under consideration by the County.
NO PROJECT/EXISTING GENERAL PLAN POLICIES AND ZONING CLASSIFICATIONS ALTERNATIVE
In accordance with CEQA Guidelines, the No Project Alternative for a project on an identifiable property
or set of properties consists of the circumstance under which the project does not proceed. Section
15126.6(e)(3)(A) of the Guidelines states that, when the project is the revision of an existing land use or
regulatory plan, policy or ongoing operation, the no project alternative will be the continuation of the
existing plan... For purposes of this analysis, the No Project/Existing General Plan Policies and Zoning
Classifications Alternative (No Project Alternative) assumes this condition. Accordingly, the No Project
Alternative assumes that development of implementing projects as allowed under the Project would not
occur, and that the Project site would instead remain subject to the provisions contained within the
current, non-amended General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Each parcel within the site would be subject
to the requirements of its corresponding General Plan land use designation for those properties outside
of the Citrus/Vineyard and Valle de los Caballos Policy Area. For parcels within these Policy Areas, the
General Plan land use designation would apply, in conjunction with the applicable zoning classifications.
This alternative also assumes that most of the entitlements applications currently on file with the
County would be approved and constructed as proposed within the Project site.
The existing General Plan and Policy Areas (i.e., No Project Alternative) in their current state are
anticipated to provide a mix of uses which would include a larger number of acres within the Rural and
Rural Community Foundation Components (as displayed in Table 3.0-3). However, with these existing
regulations, the build-out of the Project area is anticipated to include less acres under the Agriculture
and Open Space Foundation Components. The existing General Plan would not establish the proposed
three Districts (i.e., Winery, Residential, and Equestrian) as proposed under the Project and, thus, would
not ensure to the same degree the long-term viability of the wine industry and would not serve to
protect the communitys equestrian and rural lifestyle.
The existing General Plan in its current state (i.e., pursuant to the existing Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area)
would require incidental commercial uses for wineries on a minimum of 10 acres. The Project would

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-52
require a minimum of 10 acres only for these uses on existing wineries identified in the SWAP (Figure
4a). For all other wineries incidental commercial uses a 20-acre minimum lot size would be required.
Based on the existing land uses designation and Policy Areas within the Project area, this alternative
would result in a 58.4% increase in dwelling units and population, while generating a 25.4% increase in
employment/other (which is the category used to quantify the number of employees and tourists
anticipated to visit the Project area) compared to the Project.
The existing General Plan would not include the circulation improvements identified in the traffic study
prepared for the Project (i.e., traffic signalization, re-striping, addition of lanes, dedication of lanes,
creation of intersections, creation of new roadway linkages). While nothing in the existing General Plan
or zoning would preclude these improvements from developing at a later data with the appropriate
permits and approvals (e.g., GPA), this alternative does not propose or plan for these updates to the
circulation network. The General Plan, Trails and Bicycle System map (Figure 8) would also remain as is,
meaning compared to the Project, the Project area would not provide the same level of pedestrian,
equestrian, and bicycle circulation options.
This Alternative, due to its substantially greater density than the proposed Project, would result in
substantially greater impacts in nearly all environmental topical areas, particularly for traffic, air quality,
noise, aesthetics, and public services and utilities. A detailed quantitative comparison of the No Project
Alternative with the proposed Project is provided below in Table 1.0-2 of this Draft EIR, and in Appendix
J of this Draft EIR. For these reasons, this Alternative is not under consideration by the County.

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-54
REDUCED DENSITY (25% REDUCTION) ALTERNATIVE
The purpose of the Reduced Density Alternative is to reduce impacts from the Project related to the
number of units developed and the intensity of commercial development, including wineries. Under
this alternative, the total number of residential dwelling units anticipated is assumed to be reduced
from 1,916 to 1,437 representing a reduction of 479 units, or approximately 25%. In addition, it is
anticipated that commercial square footage would be reduced by 25% under this alternative.
This reduced density alternative may not have the same design features as the Project, and therefore,
the impacts of this alternative could be greater than or less than the impacts of the Project with regard
to specific issue areas. As a variation of this alternative, the site could be developed with higher density
product in a cluster development fashion, leaving increased natural open space and reducing the
extent and cost of infrastructure improvements and site grading.
The Reduced Density Alternative may not require the same level of circulation, water, sewer, flood
control and other infrastructure improvement based on a reduction in population, employment, and
tourists within the Project site (due to the lower allowable intensity of use in the Project site).
This alternative may partially accomplish the objectives enumerated for the Project. However, the
future growth of the Project area would be reduced compared to the Project. The level of commercial
tourist activities envisioned under the current General Plan and this Project would not be reached as
effectively through implementation of this alternative, due to less density and interactive synergy
produced by the Projects balance of wineries/commercial tourism, equestrian and residential uses.
Feasibility and funding of required infrastructure would also be more challenging under this Alternative
due to a reduced development base from which to derive fees and other funding sources, and much of
this infrastructure would be similar to that required for the Project. Finally, it should be noted that the
Project already represents a reduced density from what is currently allowed in the General Plan and
Policy Areas.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SUPERIOR ALTERNATIVE
Section 15126(d) of the State CEQA Guidelines indicates that an analysis of alternatives to the Project
shall identify one alternative to the project as the environmentally superior alternative. Table 1.0-3
below provides a summary matrix that compares the impacts associated with the Project with the
impacts of each of the proposed alternatives. Of the alternatives analyzed in this EIR, the Reduced
Density (25%) Alternative is considered environmentally superior overall. Even with a 25% reduction,
there would still be significant and unavoidable project impacts associated with air, greenhouse gas
emissions, agricultural resources, noise, traffic, and growth-inducing impacts.
1.8 AREAS OF CONTROVERSY AND ISSUES TO BE RESOLVED
Section 15123 (b)(2) and (3) requires that the EIR summary identify areas of controversy known to the
lead agency, issues raised by agencies and the public, and issues to be resolved, including the choice
among alternatives and whether, or how to, mitigate significant adverse physical impacts. Based on

County staffs review of available information and comments received from the general public and other
public agencies in response to the Notice of Preparation and public scoping meetings (Appendix A), the
following issues may be either controversial or require further resolution:
Total Dissolved Solids (salinity) in basin groundwater, which is currently limiting new
development
Specific timing and funding for infrastructure is in the process of development for wastewater
and transportation, and is yet to be developed for potable/reclaimed water and drainage.
Noise impacts, both from existing operations and potential future operations, particularly
related to special event noise.
Traffic impacts, on both a local community level and a regional level.
There are numerous development proposals currently in various stages of County review, some
of which may be approved prior to the new Wine Country Community Plan zoning taking effect.
The ultimate timing, location and nature of future development in the Wine Country is
uncertain. County staff has made estimates of future land uses based on detailed review of
parcel data using County GIS technologies and community participation.
These issues have been considered in this EIR, where applicable.




Chapter 3.0
Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-1
3.1 PROJECT SUMMARY
The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan includes the adoption of General Plan Amendment
No. 1077, as well as the accompanying Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 (Project), which
will ensure consistency between the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The Project proposes a host of
revisions to the Southwest Area Plan of the current County General Plan to update existing policies,
maps, and implementing directions related to potential implementing projects within the Project area.
Refer to Section 3.6 below for a detailed description of the various Project characteristics.
3.2 PROJECT LOCATION
The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan in the southwestern portion of
unincorporated Riverside County, approximately three miles north of the border with San Diego County
(refer to Exhibit 3.0-1, Regional Location Map). The Project covers approximately 18,990 acres of land
located east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake (refer to Exhibit
3.0-2, Policy Area Map). This area contains some of Riverside Countys prime agriculture lands within
the Temecula Valley.
3.3 EXISTING AND SURROUNDING LAND USES
EXISTING GENERAL PLAN LAND USES/ ZONING CLASSIFICATIONS
The existing General Plan land uses within the Project area currently consist of a mixture of Agriculture:
Agriculture (AG:AG)
1
, Rural: Rural Residential (R:RR) and Rural Mountainous (R:RM), Rural Community:
Estate Density Residential (RC:EDR), and Community Development: Commercial Tourist (CD:CT) and
Medium Density Residential (CD:MDR).
In addition, the zoning for the Project area primarily includes Citrus/Vineyard (C/V), Commercial
Citrus/Vineyard (C-C/V), Light Agriculture (A-1), Heavy Agriculture (A-2), Rural Agriculture (R-A), and
Rural Residential (R-R) classifications with varying lot size requirements (ranging from to 20 acre
minimums).
EXISTING LAND USES
Many of the existing uses within the Project area are composed of rural residential, single-family lots
(greater than one acre in size), vineyards and wineries and auxiliary uses, citrus groves, equestrian uses
including residential uses with equestrian amenities (e.g., barns, arenas, stables, etc.), and vacant
undeveloped properties. At this time there are a total of approximately 42 existing wineries located
within the Project area. Ancillary uses to the wineries include bed and breakfast inns, restaurants, and
special occasion facilities which are used for events such as parties, weddings, and other social
gatherings. Table 3.0-1, Existing Land Use Acreages, below includes a summary of the existing land uses
in the Project area.

SURROUNDING LAND USES
The Temecula Valley Wine Country region of Riverside County is surrounded by the urbanizing cities of
Temecula and Murrieta to the west, San Diego County to the south, and the unincorporated community
of Sage to the east. Land uses within the Project area include agricultural and natural open spaces, rural
communities and estate lots, to vacant land designated for future residential and commercial
developments, existing residential and commercial development associated with wineries depending on
their locations. Adjacent land uses include all of the foregoing and also include existing residential
subdivisions, retail commercial, educational and office uses in the vicinity of Butterfield Stage Road,
Rancho California Road and Highway 79. Lake Skinner, Vail Lake, campgrounds and RV parks, and related
recreational amenities are also located in the immediate vicinity of the Project area.
3.4 PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Section 15124(b) of the CEQA Guidelines indicates that an EIR should include a statement of objectives
sought by the proposed Project. The purpose of the Project is to provide a blueprint for growth to
ensure that future development activities will enhance, not impede, the quality of life for existing and
future residents, while providing opportunities for continued development and expansion of winery
operations within this part of the County.



3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-3
The Project has been developed to achieve the following goals:
Ensure that the Wine Country region develops in an orderly manner that maximizes the areas
viticulture and related uses, and balances the need to protect existing rural lifestyles in the area.
Ensure that the Riverside County General Plan and its supporting regulatory documents, such as
the Zoning Ordinance and Design Guidelines, provide a comprehensive blueprint that will
achieve the communitys vision.
Ensure adequate provisions for the establishment of wineries and equestrian operations,
associated auxiliary uses, and other compatible uses, as deemed appropriate.

To achieve these goals, the Project incorporates the following objectives:
To preserve and enhance the Wine Country regions viticulture potential, rural life style and
equestrian activities.
To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that is incidental to
viticulture activities.
To coordinate where, and under what circumstances, future growth should be accommodated.
To develop provisions to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated with the
appropriate public services, infrastructure and other basic necessities for a healthy, livable
community.
3.5 BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
The Project is located in the southwestern portion of Riverside County and is covered by the Southwest
Area Plan (SWAP) of the Countys General Plan. This area contains some of the most important
agricultural lands in the County. In response to the increased development activity that has occurred in
the area over the past decade, County staff is currently conducting a comprehensive review of the
regions vision, policies and development standards as part of the Countys General Plan update,
initiated in 2008. Previous efforts to guide development in the SWAP included the creation of two policy
areas intended to promote agricultural and equestrian uses described below.
CITRUS VINEYARD POLICY AREA
In 1989 the County recognized the special character of a portion of the Project area by creating the
Citrus Vineyard Policy Area within the Southwest Area Plan. This Policy Area encompasses a majority
of the agricultural uses within the Project area (east of Temecula and north/south of Rancho California
Road as depicted on Exhibit 3.0-3, Existing Policy Area Overlay). The Citrus Vineyard Policy Area
included specific policies to ensure the protection of the communitys distinct character and to ensure
continuation of its rural lifestyle along with the continued development of wine production in
southwestern Riverside County. The wineries that dot this Policy Area are both a significant tourist
attraction and an economic engine that provides significant benefit to the County and surrounding
municipalities. The policies of the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area are also intended to protect against the
development of uses that are incompatible with agriculture and which could lead to conflicts with
adjacent uses. The following policies have been established for the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area:
SWAP 1.1 Maintain a rural and agricultural character in the Citrus/Vineyard area through
continued implementation of the C/V zone and judicious use of the C-C/V zone.


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-4
These zones help achieve the desired character by requiring that commercial
buildings, wineries, citrus processing operations, and bed and breakfast inns be
designed in a rural or wine-country theme and by discouraging curbs,
gutters, sidewalks, and street lights.
SWAP 1.2 Require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new residential tract maps and
parcel maps.
SWAP 1.3 Encourage clustered developments in conjunction with onsite provision of
vineyards for new residential tract maps and parcel maps where appropriate. In
case of a clustered development, the overall project density yield must not
exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. While the lot sizes in a clustered
development may vary, require a minimum lot size of 1 acre, with at least 50%
of the project area set aside for permanent provision of vineyards.
SWAP 1.4 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as retail wine
sales/sampling rooms, incidental gift sales, restaurants excluding drive-through
facilities, and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on 10 acres or more
provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail wine sales are
grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons of wine annually.
SWAP 1.5 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as bed and breakfast
inns on 5 acres or more, and country inns and special occasion facilities on 10
acres or more, provided that at least 75% of the project site is planted in
vineyards.
SWAP 1.6 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as bed and breakfast
inns on 10 acres or more, country inns on 15 acres or more, and hotels on 20
acres or more, in conjunction with wineries provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail wine sales are
grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons of wine annually.
VALLE DE LOS CABALLOS POLICY AREA
This Policy Area is located east of the City of Temecula, west of the Vail Lake Policy Area and south of
the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area (Exhibit 3.0-3, Existing Policy Area Overlay). The Valle de los Caballos
area is characterized by gently rolling hills and equestrian, rural residential, and agricultural activities.
Most of the land in the area is subdivided into parcels of 10 acres or more, which fosters a very low
intensity, rural lifestyle. The primary policy established for this area is as follows:
SWAP 2.1 Require a 10-acre minimum lot size for residential development within the Valle
de los Caballos Policy Area, regardless of the underlying land use designation.


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-5
3.5.3 WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN HISTORY
In 2008, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors (BOS) directed County staff to undertake the
development of the Project in an effort to both preserve the areas distinct rural character and enhance
its economic contribution to the County over the long term. The BOS approved funding for the Project in
March 2009. As presently envisioned, the Project incorporates the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area, the Valle
de los Caballos Policy Areas and additional, adjacent unincorporated areas with similar characteristics.
Since its initiation, the Project has achieved the following milestones:
June 2009 - County staff initiated the Wine Country Vision 2020 survey, which sought input from
the Wine Country residents/property owners within the Project area to refine the vision for the
Temecula Valley Wine Country, regarding this unique communitys future.
July 2009 - Planning staff introduced a land use proposal to reflect Supervisor Stones vision to a
smaller Advisory Committee comprised of vintners.
December 2009 - The Advisory Committee expanded to include equestrian interests and
environmental work efforts in support of the Project was initiated pursuant to California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Components of the Project included General Plan
Amendment No. 1077 - Southwest Area Plan (Policy Area, Circulation and Trails Networks), an
amendment to the Countys Zoning Ordinance No. 348 to create the Citrus Vineyard (C-V) and
commercial Citrus Vineyard (C/C-V) zones, and revisions to the adopted Citrus Vineyard Policy
Area Design Guidelines.
January 2010 - The Advisory Committee began holding monthly meetings to discuss issues
associated with the Project.
July 2010 - The Committee expanded further to include residential stakeholders and requested
assistance for a Real Use Inventory of properties within the Project area.
October 2010 - Following an open house, County staff addressed the issue of non-conforming
uses within the Project area by changing focus on the General Plan.
January 2011 County staff initiated the process of retaining an environmental consultant to
assist with the preparation of the Program EIR.
May 2011 to Present Beginning in May, County staff has been working closely with several
stakeholders (including public agencies and other interested parties) as well as their consultants
to complete the preparation of the Draft Program EIR. This process has included numerous
meetings with County staff, other public agency staff, the environmental consultants, and
technical consultants and the preparation of studies in support of the Program EIRs
environmental analysis. Working together this group prepared the Draft Program EIR for
release for public review.
3.6 PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS
OUTLINE OF INDIVIDUAL WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN (PROJECT) COMPONENTS
The Project, which requires the approval of General Plan Amendment No. 1077 and Zoning Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729, includes the following components:
a) An amendment of the existing Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) and other elements of the
General Plan including, but not be limited to:

Revisions to the General Plan Circulation Element Circulation Network (Figure C-1) [refer
to Exhibit 3.0-7];
Revisions to the General Plan Circulation Element Trails Network (Figure C-7) [refer to
Exhibit 3.0-8]; and
Amendment to any other portions of the General Plan reflecting changes arising from
the proposed SWAP amendments.
b) An amendment to the Riverside County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 to add four new Zoning
Classifications that implement the General Plan: Wine Country - Winery; Wine Country - Winery
Existing; Wine Country - Residential; and Wine Country - Equestrian.
c) Replacement of the existing Citrus Vineyard Policy Area Design Guidelines with the Temecula
Valley Wine Country Design Guidelines.
Note that the Notice of Preparation and Initial Study (2009) for the Project included a review and
update of the existing County Ordinance including Ordinance No. 348 and a Change of Zone No.
7711, which was intended to include parcel specific zoning map changes to ensure consistency
between the General Plan and County Ordinance No. 348. However, through the collaborative process
of Project development with the Advisory Committee, it was determined that consistency would be
better implemented on a project-by-project basis in accordance with the proposed amendment to
Zoning Ordinance No. 348. Therefore, Change of Zone No. 771 is no longer being proposed as part of
this Project. The Project still includes the amendment to Riverside County Zoning Ordinance No. 348
under Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 as described above.
WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN LAND USES
The Project is intended to prepare for future controlled growth within southwestern Riverside County
and to achieve the following four objectives within the Project area:
Increase viticulture potential;
Protect rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;
Allow appropriate levels of commercial tourist activities; and
Ensure that future growth within the Project area is coordinated to avoid land use conflicts and
provide appropriate levels of public facilities, services, and infrastructure.
Unlike the parcel-specific land use designations of the usual General Plan Land Use Plans, the Project
makes use of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to depict the regions three distinct

districts: Winery, Residential, and Equestrian. As such, these Districts require unique methodologies for
determining population, dwelling unit and employment/winery projections.
Table 3.0-2, Wine Country Planning Assumptions provides a typical land use breakdown for each District.
The following are general guidelines intended to indicate an anticipated mix of uses and to provide a
means for calculating estimated build out projections. In the course of Project implementation, the
actual land use breakdown will be determined on a case-by-case basis as implementing projects occur
and is expected to differ somewhat from the assumptions below. As described above, the Winery
impact generation for commercial land uses in the Winery District differs from the commercial land use
assumptions of the Residential and Equestrian Districts. Residential and Equestrian Districts use
combination of assumptions in General Plan and Winery, since the two Districts could potentially have
other commercial uses different from the Winery District, especially in the Equestrian District.

As previously noted, the Project covers approximately 18,990 acres of land proposed for winery, rural
residential and equestrian uses in the unincorporated areas east of the City of Temecula (Exhibit 3.0-4,
Wine Country Community Plan Area). The land uses that would be allowed by the Project are similar to
the existing uses currently allowed by the existing General Plan and Zoning Ordinance No. 348; however,
the apportionment of these uses would be altered. Refer to Table 3.0-3, Land Use Designations by
Foundation Components. Foundation Components are a grouping of similar land uses designations. The
General Plan Land Use Map consists of five broad Foundation Component land uses: Agriculture, Rural,
Rural Community, Open Space, and Community Development.

Source: Draft EIR Appendix J, Land Use Buildout Analysis

Based on the land use assumptions for the Project, the County is anticipating that implementation of the
Project, at full build-out, will result in approximately 1,916 dwelling units resulting in a population of
5,770 residents. In addition to this, approximately 44,004 employees and visitors are anticipated to
work/ visit the Project area at buildout. It is anticipated that a majority of new implementing projects
that occur will be focused on the vacant and agricultural lands within the Project area, which are
scattered throughout the three Districts. The anticipated development is consistent with the primary
objectives of the Project, which seeks to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated in such
a way that the rural lifestyle, viticulture, and equestrian activities in the Project area are preserved and
enhanced.
County-Preferred Land Use Alternative
During the development of the Project, County staff developed different land use scenarios for the
Project areas various sub-regions. The development scenario described above, and analyzed in the
Program EIR, is considered the worst-case scenario or most intense potential scenario within the
18,990-acre Project area. However, County staff has identified potential areas that may ultimately be
excluded from the Project due to environmental issues and/or land use conflicts. CEQA requires the
Program to base its impact analysis on the projected worst-case buildout scenario; however, the
Program EIR environmental analysis and public hearing process is expected to result in the identification
of a County-Preferred Land Use Alternative that would provide for the development of a modified
plan that reduces identified impacts as compared to those analyzed in this Program EIR. This potential


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-9
reduction could result in a reduced Project footprint and/or land use changes that would result in less
intense development than presently proposed in the worst-case development scenario. Refer to
Exhibit 3.0-5, Wine Country Policy Area with Districts. This alternative may be considered and approved
by the Board of Supervisors and incorporated into the identified Project implementation documents
noted above.
TEMECULA VALLEY WINE COUNTRY POLICY AREA
As depicted in Exhibit 3.0-5, Wine Country Policy Area with Districts, the Temecula Valley Wine Country
Policy Area is divided into three Districts Winery, Equestrian and Residential to ensure the long-term
viability of the areas wine industry while protecting the communitys equestrian rural lifestyle. Each
District of the Policy Area has a corresponding implementing zone, except the Winery District, which has
two implementing zones: one for existing wineries (Wine Country - Winery Existing [WC-WE]) and
another for proposed wineries (Wine Country - Winery [WC-W]).
The overarching policies for this region promote a strong identity for the Temecula Valley Wine Country.
Additional policies applying to each District provide for complimentary uses distinct to the delineated
District. These policies are intended to protect against the development of uses that would be
incompatible with existing agricultural and equestrian uses, so as to avoid future land use conflicts.
These policies would also establish the basis for future land use decisions and a framework for the Wine
Country (WC) Zones and Design Guidelines, which have been established to further promote and
preserve the distinctive character of the area. The following policies are applicable to the Temecula
Valley Wine Country Policy Area:
SWAP 1.1 Require boundary changes to the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to be
subject to the Foundation Component Amendment process unless county-
initiated amendment.
SWAP 1.2 Maintain distinct characters of the Winery, Equestrian, and Residential Districts
through implementing zones to promote harmonious coexistence of these uses.
SWAP 1.3 Permit wineries that maintain established on site vineyards on 10 acres or more
provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail wine sales are grown or
raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons of wine annually.
SWAP 1.4 Permit limited commercial uses such as wineries, sampling rooms, and retail wine
sales establishments on a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres to promote
viticulture potential of this region.
SWAP 1.5 Require a density of ten (10) acres minimum for tentative approval of residential
tract and parcel maps after (adoption date) regardless of the underlying land use
designation except in the Wine Country Residential district where a density of
five (5) acres minimum shall apply.

SWAP 1.6 Allow small-scale cottage inns or cottage industries. Encourage agricultural
operations, equestrian activities and vineyard planting with such uses to reflect
the unique character of this Policy Area.
SWAP 1.7 Develop and implement an integrated trails network that carefully considers
equestrian uses, incidental commercial activities and agricultural operations, and
includes, but is not limited to, regional trails, combination trails, bike paths, open
space trails, historic trails, etc.
SWAP 1.8 Pending adoption of an updated Air Quality Element and Climate Action Plan
(CAP), ensure that new development selects greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction
measures from the Option Tables to achieve the Countys GHG emission reduction
thresholds as set forth in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Workbook (workbook).
Alternatively, new developments may utilize other reduction mechanisms to
achieve reduction thresholds as prescribe in the workbook.
Wine Country Winery District
The Wine Country Winery District generally encompasses the area formerly covered by the
Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area and includes additional areas to the east and south. This District primarily
consists of wineries and auxiliary uses, such as wine tasting rooms, hospitality accommodations,
restaurants, and special facilities for weddings or other events. The primary purpose of the Winery
District is to promote the establishment of additional commercial activities that support tourism
associated with viticulture while ensuring long-term viability of the wine industry in the area. The
secondary purpose of the Winery District is to recognize, and allow the expansion of, existing wineries
that are an integral part of the Temecula Valley Wine Country economy. Policies proposed for the
Winery District include:
SWAP 1.9 Encourage new incidental commercial uses that promote tourist related activities
for the wine industry as described in the Wine Country Winery (WC-W) Zone.
SWAP 1.10 Allow the 28 existing wineries shown on Figure 4a to expand as described in the
Wine Country Winery Existing (WC-WE) Zone.
SWAP 1.11 Allow incidental commercial uses such as special occasion facilities, hotels,
resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on lots larger
than 20 acres for WC-W zone and on lots larger than 10 acres for WC-WE zone.
Wine Country Equestrian District
The Wine Country Equestrian District generally encompasses the area formerly covered by the Valle de
los Caballos Policy Area. This District consists primarily of large estate lots with custom home site, large
commercial horse ranches, small independent ranches, stables, and other equestrian service facilities
and amenities including facilities which hold national and international competition events. The
purpose of the Equestrian District is to ensure continuation of and encourage future development of
equestrian uses in the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to make this community a destination
that would be unique in the nation. Policies specific to the Equestrian District include:


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-11
SWAP 1.12 Encourage equestrian establishments that promote the equestrian lifestyle as
described in the Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) Zone.
SWAP 1.13 Permit incidental commercial uses such as western stores, polo grounds, or horse
racing tracks, petting zoos, event grounds, horse auction facilities, horse show
facilities, animal hospitals, restaurants, delicatessens, and special occasion
facilities in conjunction with equestrian establishments on lots larger than 10
acres to encourage equestrian tourism in this community.
Wine Country Residential District
The Wine Country Residential District is located in the central and northeastern portions of the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. This District consists of both small and large ranch estate
communities, vineyards, and groves. The purpose of the Residential District is to encourage permanent
residential estates in this region to balance the tourism related activities. Policies specific to the
Residential District include:
SWAP 1.14 Encourage residential development that complements the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area as described in the Wine Country Residential (WC-R) Zone.
SWAP 1.15 Encourage residential tracts and parcel maps to cluster development in
conjunction with on-site vineyards or equestrian land provided that the overall
project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. While
the lot sizes in a clustered development may vary, require a minimum lot size of 1
acre, with at least 75% of the project area permanently set aside as vineyards or
equestrian land.
EXISTING WINERIES
Currently, there are currently approximately 42 wineries operating within the Project area (Exhibit 3.0-6,
Existing Wineries). These wineries are categorized as small, medium, or large based on the amenities
offered onsite. Small winery operations typically have vineyards and tasting rooms, whereas medium
wineries have vineyards, tasting rooms, and a combination of one or two additional ancillary uses such
as restaurants, special occasion facilities, or lodging facilities. Large-size wineries typically include
vineyards, tasting rooms, and resort-type uses (such as lodging, special occasion facilities, restaurants,
spas, etc).
PROJECT CIRCULATION
The vehicular circulation system in the Southwest Area Plan is anchored by Interstate 15 and Interstate
215, which run north towards the Cities of Corona and Moreno Valley, respectively. I-215 merges with I-
15, in the City of Temecula. Access to the Project area is obtained via State Route 79 (South) or Rancho
California Road from Interstate 15. The Project area can also be accessed from Winchester Road (State
Route 79 North) where it intersects with Washington Street/Scott Road in French Valley and heads
south changing its name to Buck and then to Borel Road at the northwest corner of the Project area
before becoming Rancho California Road. Access from the northeast can also occur via DePortola Road
and Sage Road, which connect the Project area to the southeastern portion of the City of Hemet.
Rancho California and De Portola Roads are considered Mountain Arterials (110 ROW), generally run
southwest to northeast through the Project area serving the rural areas east of Temecula. Major (118

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-12
right-of-way (ROW)) and Collector (74 ROW) roads branch off from these major roadways in a generally
north-south direction and provide access to local neighborhoods. Due to the rolling topography of the
Project area, the roadway network is less complex than found in more urbanized areas. Details of the
proposed circulation system and roadway/traffic control improvements can be found in Section 4.14 of
this Program EIR, Transportation and Traffic, and on Exhibit 3.0-7, Proposed Circulation Map. The
following is a summary of existing circulation and proposed improvements.

The traffic study prepared for the Project recommends innovative street improvements, which would
minimize/ reduce traffic impacts created by implementing projects allowed pursuant to the Project.
These improvement include, but are not limited to:
Roundabouts Five roundabouts are proposed along Rancho California Road to maintain rural
character of this region while allowing efficient volume capacity and traffic calming on this
critical road. The roundabout at Rancho California Road and Anza Road will be the first of five
roundabouts located at La Serena Way, Calle Contento, Monte De Oro Road and Glenoaks
Road. These roundabouts will allow vehicular, equestrian, bicycle and pedestrian traffic to
interact through the intersection more efficiently and safely while keeping its natural wine
county landscape.
Traffic Signalization/Signs the construction of traffic signals/signs for pedestrians, bikers, and
equestrians are proposed at strategic locations to promote non-motorized circulation in the
Project area;
Re-striping re-striping of intersections/ roadways to accommodate additional traffic,
additional turn lanes, or increase traffic flow;
Number of Lanes several roadways have been downgraded from the Countys Circulation
Element (as shown on Exhibit 3.0-7 and described in Section 6 of the TIA, Appendix I) to
maintain the rural character of the Project area;
Dedication of Lanes dedication of lanes to particular uses, such as right turn only or left turn
only lanes;
Creation of Intersections the creation of new signalized intersections or the creation of
roundabouts to allow for greater vehicle movement within the Project area;
Creation of new roadway linkages the creation of new roadways within the Project area
allowing for vehicular movement in areas where movement was previously unavailable.
With these improvements, the Project area circulation would become more efficient and accommodate
additional traffic anticipated to result from the buildout of the Project area. It should be noted that
many of the anticipated improvements associated with the Project could occur in areas outside of the
Project area (i.e., Offsite Improvements). Such offsite improvements would be critical components of
the overall circulation system and would help ensure that impacts associated with Project-facilitated
development located outside of the Project area would be reduced and minimized. Implementation of
these proposed roadway improvements may require the payment of fees and assessments to the
affected jurisdictions or physical construction of the improvements by or in connection with future
Project area development to ensure that Project-related traffic impacts are reduced/ minimized as
Project area development proceeds over time.
In addition to the construction of physical improvements, the County is also proposing implementation
of Traffic Demand Management strategies to reduce traffic impacts within the Project area and
surrounding areas. The purpose of implementing these strategies would be to reduce the total number


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-13
of vehicles traveling through the Project area, while maintaining or increasing the number of people
visiting the winery related establishments. These strategies may include development of park-and-ride
facilities, bus tour facilities, and/or designated businesses that provide shuttle service to the wineries
within the Project area.
Non-Vehicular Circulation
The County of Riverside contains multi-purpose trails that accommodate hikers, bicyclists, and
equestrian users as an integral part of the County's circulation system. These facilities serve both as a
means of connecting the unique communities and activity centers throughout the County and as a
means of facilitating modes of transportation with no emission of air pollutants or GHGs. Within the
SWAP, a network of trails is planned for the Wine Country region to provide pedestrians, visitors,
equestrians, and bicyclists with alternative modes of travel while providing attractive recreational
opportunities. However, it does not connect all the existing wineries and other tourist destinations,
such as Lake Skinner and Vail Lake, through equestrian and multi-purpose trails system. A Trails Sub-
committee worked with the County Regional Parks and Open Space District and Planning Staff in the
development of a trails network that was more conducive to this regions destination places and users
needs. As a result of their work effort, Figure 8 (Trails and Bikeway System Map) of the SWAP would be
revised through GPA No. 1077. Exhibit 3.0-8, Proposed Trails Network, illustrates the revisions
proposed under GPA No. 1077 to the current SWAP Trails and Bicycle System map (Figure 8).
Circulation Improvement Funding
As this Program EIR is being prepared, the County is weighing the various options to fund the proposed
circulation system improvements needed to address potential impacts to the area circulation system
that would be created by the incremental implementation of development permitted pursuant to the
Project. The County currently imposes development impact fees on projects located within the
Southwest Area Plan. As part of an ongoing process, the County would review the adequacy of these
fees to cover the costs associated with proposed street improvements designed to mitigate the
anticipated traffic. At the time of this writing, the County is investigating the feasibility of such funding
mechanisms as the creation of a Community Facilities District (CFD), the use of a Community Service
Area (CSA) assessment, individual assessments and fee imposed on implementing projects as conditions
of approval.
PROJECT INFRASTRUCTURE
Domestic Water Distribution
The majority of the Project area is served by the Rancho California Water District (RCWD), which
provides water service for the cities of Temecula and Murrieta and adjacent unincorporated areas. A
detailed discussion of water supply and water supply infrastructure for the Project area is contained in
Section 4.13 of this Program EIR, Public Services, Recreation and Utilities.
At full buildout, assuming the worst-case development scenario possible pursuant to the Project,
there would be an approximately 38 percent increase in water demand within the Project area as
compared to the demand anticipated pursuant to the current General Plan land use designations (but
not taking into account the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de los Caballos Policy Areas).
RCWDs Water Facilities Master Plan (WFMP) includes master planned facilities (pipelines, pump
stations and reservoirs) to be built throughout the Districts service area. Facilities within the Project


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-14
area are shown on Exhibit 3.0-9, WFMP Proposed Facilities. These facilities include the major
infrastructure components anticipated for the Project area. The sizing of the master planned facilities as
well as the distribution pipelines would require analysis when a future implementing project requests
water service to ensure redundancy, hydraulic availability and constructability.
Wastewater (Sewer) System
Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD), which currently provides sewer service to the City of
Temecula, a portion of the City of Murrieta, and unincorporated area in Riverside County within the
EMWDs Temecula Valley service area, would be expected to provide sanitary sewer service and
wastewater treatment to the Project area. In May 2011, EMWD completed the Wine Country
Infrastructure Study (WCIS) to assess the potential projected service needs of existing uses within the
Project area as well as anticipated growth that would be facilitated by the adoption and subsequent
implementation of the Project. Details of the proposed wastewater collection and treatment facilities
that are planned to serve the Project area are provided in Section 4.13 of this Program EIR.
EMWD identified potential alternatives to accommodate Project sewer flows. Descriptions of these
alternatives from the WCIS are provided below.
2
Note that this study is currently being refined by
EMWD. In discussing these alternatives, it is helpful to differentiate the three subareas within the
boundary of the Project area: Lower Wine Country (Lower WC) is the western portion of the Project area
that generally can be connected to the existing Rancho California Road sewer without pumping; Upper
Wine Country (Upper WC) is the northern portion of the Project area that would require pumping to
connect to the existing system; and the Highway 79 area is the southern portion of Wine Country that is
generally tributary to the existing sewer in Highway 79.
Alternative A is considered the base alternative where Lower WC is served by the
Rancho California Road sewer, Upper WC is served by the Nicolas Road sewer, and the
Highway 79 area is served by the Highway 79 sewer. Lower WC is naturally tributary to
Ranch California Road and the Highway 79 area is generally tributary to the Highway 79
sewers. Upper WC will require pumping to route Project wastewater flows to the
existing collection system along Nicolas Road. A network of regional facilities would be
required to provide sewer service to the Project area for Alternative A. These regional
facilities are defined in the EMWD Wine Country Infrastructure Study (WCIS).
Alternative B (the Nicolas Road Alternative) routes both Upper WC and Highway 79 area
flows to the Nicolas Road sewer. The Lower WC area remains served by the Rancho
California Road sewer, as in Alternative A. Alternative B routes flows from the Highway
79 area, through the Upper WC area, and ultimately towards the Nicolas Road sewers. A
lift station located along Highway 79 (South Calle Contento Lift Station) would intercept
the Highway 79 flow and deliver it via a force main to a proposed sewer in Upper WC.
From that point, new sewers and a new lift station along Calle Contento, north of
Rancho California Road, are needed to deliver the combined Highway 79 and Upper WC
flows to the existing Nicolas Road sewer.
Alternative C, proposes that all flows are routed to the Rancho California Road sewer
from the Project area. To accomplish this, Alternative C requires that both the Highway

Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-15
79 and Upper WC areas be pumped to Lower WC. Alternative C routes flows from the
Highway 79 area, via a lift station and force main along Butterfield Stage Road. Upper
WC is routed to Lower WC, via a lift station and force main along Rancho California
Road, just west of Calle Contento.
EMWD developed flow scenarios for their analysis assuming that at buildout 4.21 million gallons per day
(mgd) of total effluent will be generated by the Project area. Based on the analysis conducted by
EMWD, it was determined that each alternative could accommodate anticipated flows.
Septic Facilities
Numerous properties within the Project area currently utilize septic systems for wastewater disposal. At
this time, the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) is concerned about the use of
onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) within the Project area due to groundwater quality
concerns. In response to this, RWQCB has requested that all commercial implementing projects
proposing OWTS with an average aggregate (total) wastewater flow greater than 1,200 gallons per day
(gpd) must be referred to them for assessment of compliance with water quality standards.
3
Note that
the 1,200 gallon per day standard is under review by RWQCB and may not remain in place throughout
the life of the Project. Residential projects would be limited to the 1,200 gpd average aggregate
wastewater flow regardless of the number of family units. It is possible that future implementing
projects within the Project area Country may include OWTS as the wastewater solution (refer to Section
4.13, Public Services and Utilities for additional details).
Drainage Facilities
As build out of the Project occurs, incremental onsite drainage improvements would be constructed to
control any increased flows above the natural condition and the need for additional major public storm
water management infrastructure improvements is not anticipated. The onsite detention and slow
release of incremental flows would be expected to prevent any increase in downstream erosion or
sediment load. Preservation of existing natural drainages and their associated habitat is anticipated as
implementing projects within the Project area are proposed due to the continued enforcement of
existing federal, State, and regional/local regulations. Refer to Section 4.9, Hydrology & Water Quality
for additional discussion.
3.7 PROJECT PHASING
Build out of the Project area is anticipated to occur in year 2035 and would be driven by market demand
and conditioned by the availability of infrastructure capacity. For planning purposes, a build-out
projection was performed by County staff. Table 3.0-4, Wine Country Buildout Projection, illustrates a
potential development pattern for wineries based on the Project-wide land use capacity pursuant to the
Project. Based on this analysis, a total of 56 new wineries of various sizes would be constructed and
added to the existing 32 wineries operating in the Winery District. Currently there is one existing winery
in the Residential District (Briar Rose Winery) and no wineries in the Equestrian District. To calculate the
number of wineries, a land use study was conducted that:

1. Analyzed existing and proposed winery uses to determine the appropriate proportion of
commercial, agricultural, and manufacturing uses;
2. Inventoried parcel sizes in the area to determine the land use capacity based on acreages; and
3. Examined existing and proposed winery records maintained by the County Planning Department
and Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association (TVWA) to determine the development trend in
the area for forecasting purposes.
As Table 3.0-4, Wine Country Buildout Projection, indicates, the total available land for development of
wineries would accommodated approximately 88 wineries, inclusive of those already in operation as of
the date of the study, with a mix consisting of 21 large, 37 medium, and 30 small-sized operations in the
Winery District and approximately 105, with 21 large, 37 medium and 47 small-sized operation for the
entire Project area. It should be noted that this study was conducted at a time when 32 wineries existed
within the Project area. Since that time 8 additional wineries have been identified and currently operate
within the Project area. At this time it is anticipated that 65 additional wineries will be developed in the
Project area based on the buildout analysis prepared by the County and the number of existing wineries
currently in operation.
Table 3.0-4
Wine Country Buildout Projection

As noted in Table 3.0-4 above, the land capacity for wineries at buildout is approximately 6 and 11 in the
Equestrian and Residential District, respectively. All wineries in these Districts would be small sized
wineries. In addition, at buildout the projected total amounts of dwelling units in the Equestrian and
Residential Districts are 199 and 978, respectively. Within the Winery District 739 units are anticipated.
The amount of residential and non-residential development in any given year would depend on a variety
of factors, including the cyclical nature of the housing and non-residential markets, funding, and
regulatory process.

(i.e., Sections 4.1 through 4.14 of the EIR) and either avoid, reduce, offset, or otherwise minimize
identified potential adverse impacts of the Project or serve as betterments providing significant
benefit to the community and/or to the physical environment:
Aesthetics/Light and Glare
1. The Project will require that implementing projects adhere to the new development standards
proposed under the Zoning Ordinance Amendment. This will include additional setbacks on
major roadways, consistent allowable maximum height requirements, etc.
2. The Project will require that implementing projects comply with the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area Design Guidelines which provides recommendation and design guidance for
implementing projects and expansion of roadways and trail facilities within the Project area.
3. The Project will require 75% of implementing project on future winery sites be planted with
vineyards on 10 acres or more (revised SWAP Policy 1.3 and 1.4). This minimum planting
requirement will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the rural
agricultural feel of the Project site.
4. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.5) will require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new
residential tract maps and parcel maps except in the Wine Country Residential District. This
large lot size requirement will preserve and enhance the rural feel in the Project area.
5. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.6) will encourage agricultural operations, equestrian
activities and vineyard planting which will reflect the unique character of this Policy Area.
6. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.2) will maintain distinct rural, agricultural and equestrian
characters in the Project area through implementation of the Wine Country Districts and
corresponding zones.
7. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.11) will allow incidental commercial uses such as special
occasion facilities, hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on
lots larger than 20 acres for WC-W zone and on lots larger than 10 acres for WC-WE zone, which
will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the agricultural feel of
the Wine Country Wine District.
8. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.12) will encourage equestrian establishments and permit
incidental commercial uses that compliment existing equestrian establishments on lots larger
than 10 acres. This will promote the equestrian and rural nature of the Wine Country
Equestrian District.
9. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.15) will encourage residential tract and parcel maps with
an overall project density yield not to exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. This large lot
size requirement will preserve and enhance the rural feel in the Wine Country Residential
District.
10. The Circulation Element Amendment is anticipated to reduce average daily trips while
maintaining the rural feel of Wine Country through adherence to the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Design Guidelines. In addition, the Proposed Circulation Map (refer to Exhibit 3.0-7)
shows several roadways would be downgraded from the current Countys Circulation Element,
and several intersections would be improved through the creation of roundabouts which would
enhance or maintain the rural character of the Project area.
11. The Project through the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area Design Guidelines would
recommend that all exterior lighting fixtures be directed downward and properly aimed at
targeted areas, which will minimize light spillover. The Guidelines would also recommend that,
if grading is necessary, contoured slopes or rounded slopes should be manufactured and buffer

zones should be provided between buildings and vineyards for an easy transition from built
areas to grapevines.
Air Quality
1. The Projects amendment to County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 will require that the minimum lot
size for special occasion facilities be 10 acres in the WC-WE zone, 20 acres in the WC-W zone,
and 100 acres in the WC-E zone and a maximum of 5 guests shall be permitted per gross acre for
these facilities. This would greatly reduce air quality impacts on neighboring properties.
2. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 above which will
require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres and a minimum vineyard planting or
equestrian land requirement of 75%. This will reduce the overall land use density and intensity
of the Project site, resulting in fewer average daily trips which will in turn decrease air quality
impacts in the Project area and surrounding communities.
Agricultural Resources
1. The Project will require 75% of implementing projects on future winery sites be planted with
vineyards on 10 acres or more (revised SWAP Policy 1.3 and 1.4). This minimum planting
requirement will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the rural
agricultural feel of the Project site.
2. Within the Winery District, implementing project which propose incidental commercial uses will
be allowed only on winery sites larger than 20 acres for the WC-W zone and 10 acres for the
WC-WE zone.
3. Within the Equestrian District, implementing project which propose incidental commercial uses
will be allowed only on equestrian establishments on lots larger than 10 acres.
4. The Project will require 75% of implementing projects involving commercial equestrian
establishments be set aside for permanent equestrian lands (proposed Draft Wine Country
Zone, Development Standard F.2).
5. Within the Residential District, implementing projects which propose residential tracts or parcel
maps will be required to cluster development in conjunction with onsite vineyards or equestrian
land such that the overall project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit per five (5)
acres. At least 75% of the implementing project area will be permanently set aside as vineyards
or equestrian land.
6. At buildout, the Project is anticipated to result in a total of 9,644 acres of land designated for
agriculture-related uses, including equestrian lands.
7. The proposed Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) and Residential (WC-R) zones would allow as a
permitted use the grazing, keeping or boarding of horses, cattle, sheep, goats, or other farm
stock, in addition to other similar agriculture-promoting uses.
Biological Resources
1. The Project will require 75% of implementing projects on future winery sites be planted with
vineyards on 10 acres or more (revised SWAP Policy 1.3 and 1.4). This minimum planting
requirement will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the rural
agricultural feel of the Project site.
2. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.5) will require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new
residential tract maps and parcel maps except in the Wine Country Residential District. This
large lot size requirement will preserve and enhance the rural feel in the Project area.

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-19
3. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.11) will allow incidental commercial uses such as special
occasion facilities, hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on
lots larger than 20 acres for WC-W zone and on lots larger than 10 acres for WC-WE zone, which
will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the agricultural feel of
the Wine Country Winery District.
4. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.12) will encourage equestrian establishments and permit
incidental commercial uses that complement existing equestrian establishments on lots larger
than 10 acres. This will promote the equestrian and rural nature of the Wine Country
Equestrian District.
5. The Project (proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729) within the Wine Country
Equestrian (WC-E) Zone will allow the following uses related to biological resources:
commercial equestrian establishments;
the grazing, keeping or boarding of horses, cattle, sheep, goats or other farm stock,
excluding hogs;
selective or experimental breeding and raising of horses, cattle, sheep, and goats
petting zoo;
polo grounds or horse show facility;
horse racing track or rodeo arena;
large animal hospital provided that temporary boarding facilities are established for the
purposes of boarding sick or injured animals.
Cultural Resources
1. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 above, which will
require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres. This would make it reasonable to preserve
more open space and reduce the amount of deep excavation and grading within the Project site,
reducing the potential for impacts to cultural resources. This would allow more physical space
to design to avoid and preserve cultural resources.
Geology, Soils, and Seismicity
1. As part of the Wine Country Infrastructure Study (WCIS), EMWD identified potential alternatives
to accommodate Project sewer flows, reducing reliance on onsite septic treatment facilities.
Descriptions of these alternatives are provided above.
2. On-site drainage improvements would be made at the time implementing projects occur to
control any increased flows and ensure erosion of downstream environments do not occur.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
1. The Projects amendment to County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 will require that the minimum lot
size for special occasion facilities be 10 acres in the WC-WE zone, 20 acres in the WC-W zone,
and 100 acres in the WC-E zone and a maximum of 5 guests shall be permitted per gross acre for
these facilities. This would greatly reduce air quality impacts on neighboring properties.
2. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 (refer to Chapter
3.0 Project Description), which will require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres and a
minimum vineyard planting or equestrian land requirement of 75%. This will reduce the overall
land use density and intensity of the Project site, resulting in fewer average daily trips which will
in turn decrease air quality impacts in the Project area and surrounding communities.
3. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.8) will require that pending adoption of an updated Air


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-20
Quality Element and Climate Action Plan (CAP), the County will ensure that new development
selects greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction measures from the Option Tables to achieve the
Countys GHG emission reduction thresholds as set forth in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction
Workbook (workbook). Alternatively, new developments may utilize other reduction
mechanisms to achieve reduction thresholds as prescribe in the workbook.
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
There are no Project Design Features that have been developed with specific respect to hazards and
hazardous materials.
Hydrology and Water Quality
1. The Project includes requirements to limit the intensity and density of implementing projects,
including retention of at least 75% of all winery project acreage as agricultural production, and
requiring minimum lot sizes in the Winery, Winery-Existing, and Equestrian Districts, thereby
reducing impervious surfaces and associated stormwater runoff.
Land Use and Relevant Planning
1. The Plan would establish three distinct Districts within the General Plan Policy Area to maximize
the areas viticulture and related uses, and balance the need to protect existing rural lifestyles in
the area.
2. The Project is itself self mitigating in that it provides additional policies, land use controls, and
design guidelines that are estimated to result in substantially reduced overall land use density
and intensity, as well as better coordinated land use planning that allows all three primary land
uses to function with minimal conflict.
Mineral Resources
1. The Project reduces the overall density of development in the Project area, thereby reducing the
permanent footprint of structures and roads, preserving the option for future mineral
extraction;
2. Within the Winery District, the proposed Project requires a minimum of 75% of land set aside
for agricultural production (viticulture). This land would remain available for potential future
mineral extraction.
Noise
1. The Projects amendment to County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 will require that the minimum lot
size for special occasion facilities be 10 acres in the WC-WE zone, 20 acres in the WC-W zone,
and 100 acres in the WC-E zone and a maximum of 5 guests shall be permitted per gross acre for
these facilities. This would greatly reduce noise impacts on neighboring properties.
2. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 above, which will
require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres and a minimum vineyard planting or
equestrian land requirement of 75%. This will reduce the overall land use density and intensity
of the Project site, resulting in fewer average daily trips which will in turn decrease ambient
traffic-generated, operational, and site development noise in the Project area and surrounding
communities.
3. The Project will require special occasion facilities that propos indoor events to conduct a Noise
Study prior to Plot Plan/CUP approval. Similarly, special occasion facilities that propose outdoor

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-21
events will be required to conduct an Acoustical Analysis prior to Plot Plan/CUP approval.
Public Services, Recreation and Utilities
1. The Project proposes the expansion of roadways and trail facilities within the Project area as
illustrated in Exhibit 3.0-7 and 3.0-8.
2. As part of the Wine Country Infrastructure Study (WCIS), EMWD identified potential alternatives
to accommodate Project sewer flows. Descriptions of these alternatives are provided above.
3. As stated in the Final Integrated Regional Water Management Plan for the Upper Santa
Margarita Watershed Planning Region, RCWD is planning to improve groundwater recharge
facilities and construct up to 18 new groundwater wells to increase water supply and
conjunctive use storage for its service area.
4. RCWDs Water Facilities Master Plan (WFMP) includes master planned facilities (pipelines, pump
stations and reservoirs) to be built throughout the Districts service area. Facilities within the
Project area are shown on Exhibit 3.0-8, WFMP Proposed Facilities.
Traffic and Circulation
1. The Project will require that implementing projects comply with the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area Design Guidelines which provides recommendation and design guidance for
implementing projects and expansion of roadways and trail facilities within the Project area.
2. The Project will design and develop the vehicular roadway system per Figure 7 (Circulation) of
the SWAP, and in accordance with the functional classifications and standards specified in the
General Plan Circulation Element.
3. The Project will maintain the Countys roadway Level of Service standards as described in the
Level of Service section of the General Plan Circulation Element.
3.8 REQUIRED PERMITS AND APPROVALS
PERMITS/APPROVALS CURRENTLY BEING SOUGHT
The County of Riverside exercises discretionary authority over the Project and is, therefore, the Lead
Agency pursuant to CEQA. Implementation of the Project could require the following permits and
approvals from the County. The following list is not exhaustive and is based on the best data available at
the time of Draft Program EIR was prepared.
Adoption of General Plan Amendment No. 1077 (GPA 1077), which includes revisions, updates,
and additions to the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the Riverside County General Plan,
including but not limited to:
o Deletion of policies of the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de Los Caballos Policy Areas,
specifically policies SWAP 1.1 through SWAP 2.1;
o Addition of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area and applicable policies.
o Revision to Statistical Summary Table 2 of the SWAP
o Deletion of the boundaries of the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de Los Caballos Policy Areas
and the addition of the boundary of Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to SWAP
Policy Areas Figure 4
o Revision to SWAP Circulation Network Figure 7
o Revision to SWAP Trails and Bikeway Systems Figure 8


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-22
o Revision to General Plan Circulation Element Circulation Network Figure C- 1
o Revision to General Plan Circulation Element Trails Network Figure C- 7
o Amendment of any other portions of the General Plan or SWAP required to reflect
changes arising from the proposed SWAP amendments and various Project components.
Adoption of revisions to the Riverside County Zoning Ordinance No. 348.4729 to add four new
Zoning Classifications that would implement the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area:
Wine Country Winery; Wine Country Winery Existing; Wine Country Residential; and Wine
Country Equestrian.
Approval / Amendments to supporting regulatory or advisory documents, such as replacing the
Citrus Vineyard Design Guidelines with the proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Design
Guidelines.
Current Wine Country Proposals
In addition to the permits/ approvals currently being sought, there are approximately 67 existing
planning cases for projects located within the Project area that are currently under review by the County
Planning Department (refer to Section 4.0, Overview of EIR Methodology). The types of cases being
reviewed include: Conditional Use Permits, General Plan Amendments, Parcel Maps, Plot Plans, and
Tentative Tract Maps. These pending planning cases are in various stages of the process ranging from
the initial submittal of applications to projects that have been tentatively approved and are awaiting
final approval by County staff. Some of these implementing projects may conflict with the Project and
would require special consideration, especially if these conflicts generate impacts to surrounding uses.
Potential Future Permit/Approvals
Future site-specific implementing projects will require subsequent discretionary review and approval by
the County of Riverside. As part of this review it is anticipated that these implementing projects would
require a variety of future permits and approvals. Table 3.0-5, Potential Future Permits and Approvals,
summarizes some of the anticipated requirements for these future implementing projects.

Chapter 4.0
Environmental Analysis



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 4.0-1

INTRODUCTION
The following subsections of the EIR contain a detailed environmental analysis of the existing conditions,
Project impacts (including direct and indirect, short-term and long-term), recommended mitigation
measures, and unavoidable adverse impacts that cannot be mitigated, where these are identified. This
EIR analyzes those environmental issue areas identified in the Notice of Preparation (Appendix A, NOP
and NOP Comment Letters) where potentially significant impacts could occur as a result of Project
implementation, based on information gathered throughout the EIR process. The EIR examines the
following environmental issue areas outlined in the CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, Environmental
Checklist:
Aesthetics, Light and Glare
Agricultural and Forestry Resources
Air Quality
Biological Resources
Cultural Resources
Geology, Soils, and Seismicity
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
Hydrology and Water Quality
Land Use and Relevant Planning
Mineral Resources
Noise
Population and Housing
Public Services, Recreation and Utilities
Traffic and Circulation
Each environmental issue is addressed in a separate sub-section of Section 4 of the EIR (with the
exception of Population and Housing which is addressed in Sections 5.0, Growth-Inducing Impacts, and
8.0, Effects Found Not to Be Significant), and is organized under the following headings:
ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
Environmental Setting provides a description of the existing physical conditions on and in the vicinity
of the Project site to provide a baseline condition against which Project-related impacts are compared.
The baseline condition is generally the physical condition that exists when the NOP is published
(December 22, 2009). The baseline for transportation/traffic, air quality, and noise is the date of the
traffic counts, which occurred in June and July 2011. Data that are not sensitive to change, either
because of the nature of the information (e.g., a resource that does not change readily, such as geology,
or general background information that is not date-sensitive, such as definitions or general descriptions
of regulations) or because no changes have occurred (e.g., physical site conditions or site history) may
also be used as background information, and may have a date prior to December 2009.

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 4.0-2

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
The Regulatory Framework provides a summary of regulations, plans, policies, and laws that are relevant
to each environmental issue area. The Countys General Plan goals and policies and relevant sections of
the Countys Ordinances are listed as appropriate in the individual technical sections. The laws,
ordinances, and regulations cited in each section are current as of publishing of this Draft EIR.
SIGNIFICANCE THRESHOLD CRITERIA
Significance Threshold Criteria provides the thresholds that are the basis of conclusions of significance,
which are primarily the criteria in the 2011 CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, Environmental Checklist.
Major sources used in crafting criteria include: the CEQA Guidelines; local, State, federal, or other
standards applicable to an impact category; and officially established significance thresholds. Section
15064(b) of the CEQA Guidelines states that, an ironclad definition of significant effect is not possible
because the significance of any activity may vary with the setting. Principally, a substantial, or
potentially substantial adverse change in any of the physical conditions within an area affected by the
project, including land, air, water, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historic and aesthetic
significance, constitutes a significant impact (CEQA Guidelines Section 15382).
IMPACT ANALYSIS AND MITIGATION
Project impacts are potential changes to the existing physical environment that could occur if the
Project is implemented. Evidence, based on factual and scientific data, is presented to show the cause-
and-effect relationship between the Project and the potential changes in the environment. The exact
magnitude, duration, extent, frequency, range, or other parameters of a potential impact are
ascertained, to the extent possible, to determine whether impacts could be significant; potential direct
and reasonably foreseeable indirect effects are considered to the extent feasible.
The Level of Significance identifies the impact significance level with implementation of the Project.
Impacts are classified as follows:
No Impact This determination is made when, due either to the nature or the scope of the
Project, no impact would occur.
Less than Significant This determination is made when the impact does not exceed the
defined threshold(s) of significance or can be eliminated or reduced to a less than significant
level through compliance with existing local, State, and/or federal laws and regulations and/or
Project requirements and Project Design Features.
Less than Significant with Mitigation This determination is made when a potentially
significant impact can be reduced, avoided, or offset to a less than significant level by
incorporating EIR mitigation measures.
Potentially Significant Impact As required by Section 15126.2(b) of the CEQA Guidelines, this
is used when a residual impact that would cause a substantial adverse effect on the
environmentwhich may or may not be reduced somewhatcould not be reduced to a less-
than-significant level through any feasible mitigation measure(s). This designation is similar in
effect to a Significant Irreversible Change under NEPA [40 CFR 1502.16 and Public Resources


4.0 Environmental Analysis



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 4.0-3

Code 21100(b)(2)(B)]. This determination requires a Statement of Overriding Considerations
(pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093), which would be adopted by the County of
Riverside prior to approving the Project. In adopting such a statement, the lead agency is
required to balance the benefits of a project against its unavoidable environmental impacts in
determining whether to approve the project. If the benefits of a project are found to outweigh
the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse effects may be considered
acceptable and the project approved (CEQA Guidelines Section 15093[a]).
GENERAL PLAN MITIGATION MEASURES
General Plan Mitigation Measures are those measures identified in General Plan EIR No. 441 to
mitigate impacts associated with buildout of the Countys General Plan. These have been incorporated
into this EIR, where applicable.
MITIGATION MEASURES
Mitigation Measures are those Project-specific measures that would be required of the Project to
avoid a significant adverse impact; to minimize a significant adverse impact; to rectify a significant
adverse impact by restoration; to reduce or eliminate a significant adverse impact over time by
preservation and maintenance operations; or to compensate for the impact by replacing or providing
substitute resources or environment.

CUMULATIVE IMPACTS
Cumulative Impacts describes potential environmental changes to the existing physical conditions that
may occur with the Project together with all other reasonably foreseeable, planned, and approved
future projects.
Basis for Cumulative Impact Analysis
Section 15355 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines defines cumulative impacts
as:
two or more individual effects which when considered together are considerable or which
compound or increase other environmental impacts.
Section 15355 further describes potential cumulative impacts as follows:
(a) The individual effects may be changes resulting from a single project or a number of
separate projects.
(b) The cumulative impacts from several projects are the change in the environment, which
results from the incremental impact of the project when added to other closely related past,
present, and reasonably foreseeable probable future projects. Cumulative impacts can result
from individually minor but collectively significant projects taking place over a period of time.

1
The measures presented in this EIR are either project design features (those that would be implemented as
part of project design) or mitigation measures (those that would mitigate project impacts above and beyond
any reduction in impacts accomplished by project design features).

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 4.0-4

Cumulative impacts represent the change caused by the incremental impact of a project when added to
other proposed or committed projects in the vicinity. Section 15355 of the Guidelines defines
cumulative impacts to be, ... two or more individual effects which, when considered together, are
considerable or which compound or increase other environmental impacts. Section 15130 of the CEQA
Guidelines states that cumulative impacts shall be discussed where they are significant. It further states
that this discussion shall reflect the level and severity of the impact and the likelihood of occurrence, but
not in as great a level of detail as would be necessary for the project alone.
Section 15130(b)(1) of the Guidelines states that the information utilized in an analysis of cumulative
impacts should come from one of two sources:

1. A list of past, present, and probable future projects producing related cumulative impacts,
including, if necessary, those projects outside the control of the agency; or
2. A summary of projections contained in an adopted general plan or related planning document
designed to evaluate regional or area-wide conditions.

The cumulative impacts analyses contained in this Draft EIR uses a blended approach to ensure
adequate analysis. Relative to the list method, Table 4.0-1, Cumulative Projects, provides a list of
known development projects within the Project area.
2
This list of projects has been used to provide
general context for overall cumulative conditions, noting that the actual density, timing and nature of
these projects is uncertain given the long build-out timeframe for the Project. Also, refer to Exhibit 4.0-
1, Active Planning Cases, which shows the location of the land development projects listed in Table 4.0-
1, Cumulative Projects.
3

The types of cases being reviewed include: Conditional Use Permits, General Plan Amendments, Parcel
Maps, Plot Plans, and Tentative Tract Maps. These pending planning cases are in various stages of the
process ranging from the initial submittal of applications to projects that have been tentatively
approved and are awaiting final approval by County staff. Some of these proposed developments may
conflict with the proposed Project and would require special consideration, especially if these conflicts
generate impacts to surrounding uses.

Relative to the adopted plan method, the Project area encompasses two Policy Areas intended to
promote agricultural and equestrian uses within Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the County General
Plan. The Citrus Vineyard Policy Area encompasses a majority of the agricultural uses within the Project
area, and the Valle de los Caballos Policy Area supports an area characterized by equestrian, rural
residential, and agricultural activities. The Project area also encompasses adjacent unincorporated
areas with similar characteristics. The Project does not result in a substantive change in overall density
or nature compared to what is allowed as part of the General Plan SWAP. In fact, implementation of the
Project would result in a reduction in overall density and intensity. Accordingly, the Projects overall
density and nature of development would be consistent with regional growth projections reflected in
the Riverside County General Plan and those of applicable regional, State and Federal agencies.
Therefore, on both a local and regional level, the Projects cumulative impacts have been accounted for
in the Riverside County General Plan EIR No. 441, as well as in the various population-dependent
regional plans adopted by such agencies as the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG),

2
The list of cumulative projects was compiled by County Planning Department staff in September 2011.
3
Note that these projects are in various stages of entitlement or construction.

COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE PLANNING DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN


PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) was initiated by the County
Board of Supervisors in 2008 to ensure that the region develops in an orderly manner that
preserves Temecula Valleys viticulture potential and enhances its economic contribution to the
County over the long term. The purpose of this Project is to provide a blueprint for future growth
that ensures that future development activities will enhance, and not impede, the quality of life
for existing and future residents, while providing opportunities for continued preservation and
expansion of winery and equestrian operations. The Project has been developed to achieve the
following four objectives:

1. To preserve and enhance viticulture potential, rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;
2. To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are
incidental to viticulture and equestrian operations;
3. To coordinate growth in a manner that avoids future land use conflicts; and
4. To ensure timely provision of appropriate public infrastructure and services that keeps
up with anticipated growth.

The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the General Plan in the
southwestern portion of unincorporated Riverside County. The Project covers approximately
18,990 acres of land located approximately three miles north of the San Diego County border,
east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake. The Project
includes General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729, and the
accompanying Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524 (PEIR No. 524).


PUBLIC TESTIMONY AND ISSUES DISCUSSED DURING FIRST TWO PUBLIC HEARINGS:

The Project was discussed before the Planning Commission on July 25, 2012 and August 22,
2012. At the two public hearings, the Commission received an extensive amount of public
testimony and letters regarding the Project on a variety of topics. This includes the following:

Requirements to regulate noise;
Implementation of the proposed trails network;
Application of Ordinance No. 348.4729;
Allowance of churches and other places of religious worship;

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN General Plan Amendment No. 1077,
Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT September 26, 2012
Page 2 of 2



Allowance of private schools;
Preservation of vineyards and other agricultural uses;
Tourism associated with winery and equestrian uses;
Recognition of other agricultural operations;
Requests for modification of the proposed Wine Country Community Plan boundaries;
Proposed development standards;
Water quality and supply assessment; and
Farm worker housing.

The majority of the public testimony focused on the inclusion of churches and private schools
within the Project. Since the Project description did not include churches and private schools,
the PEIR No. 524 did not analyze these types of land uses. It is staffs understanding that the
Commission did not feel comfortable moving forward with a recommendation on the Project due
to the amount of public testimony to include churches and private schools. Thus, it was the
position of the Commission to revise the Project description to include churches which would
therefore require a re-circulation of the PEIR No. 524.

Thus, at the conclusion of the August 22, 2012 hearing, the Planning Commission directed staff
to develop options that would include churches, and other places of religious worship in the
Project description and report back to the Planning Commission. The Commission also directed
staff to schedule a meeting with the consultant team and the temporary Ad Hoc Subcommittee
consisting of Commissioner Petty and Commissioner Zuppardo to develop the Project options
and scope of services required to re-circulate PEIR No. 524. Additionally, the Commission
closed the public hearing to further public testimony. The public hearing remained open for all
other matters.

Meetings regarding Project options and scope of services were conducted on September 4,
2012 and September 11, 2012. Based on the two meetings, two options were being developed.
The first option would include a full re-circulation of the PEIR with the inclusion of churches only
in the Project description. The second option would include a full re-circulation of the PEIR with
the inclusion of churches and private schools in the Project description.

At this time, staff is still in the process of evaluating the two options, scopes of services, fee
schedules and time frames. Thus, staff is recommending a 60 day continuance with no
discussion to further evaluate options.


RECOMMENDATION:

CONTINUE FOR 60 DAYS with no discussion to further evaluate options.

People have the freedom in this country to worship not only how they wish, but wherever they wish. So, why should you
complain. The ban was put into place in 1999 so it isn't something new, something you didn't know. You have the
freedom to live wherever you wish, so live somewhere that doesn't already have this on the books. This country needs
jobs and your county has kept (so far) the Liberty Plant from going forward. I am a Trucker (material hauler) who lost
my work when the housing market went south. Some of the people fighting this plant haven't lived in the area as long as
we've been trying to get this business going. So, once again, why are you complaining. You want to worship wherever
you want? Gee, where have you been worshipping up until now? Keep going there. Chris McHenry

WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN


PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) was initiated by the County
Board of Supervisors in 2008 to ensure that the region develops in an orderly manner that
preserves Temecula Valleys viticulture potential and enhances its economic contribution to the
County over the long term. The purpose of this Project is to provide a blueprint for future growth
that ensures that future development activities will enhance, and not impede, the quality of life
for existing and future residents, while providing opportunities for continued preservation and

following four objectives:

1. To preserve and enhance viticulture potential, rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;
2. To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are
incidental to viticulture and equestrian operations;
3. To coordinate growth in a manner that avoids future land use conflicts; and
4. To ensure timely provision of appropriate public infrastructure and services that keeps
up with anticipated growth.

The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) of the General Plan in the
southwestern portion of unincorporated Riverside County. The Project covers approximately
18,990 acres of land located approximately three miles north of the San Diego County border,
east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake. The Project
includes General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729, and the
accompanying Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524.

ISSUES DISCUSSED IN FIRST HEARING:

This Project was discussed before the Planning Commission on J uly 25, 2012. After taking
public testimony from more than 50 members of the public, the Commission discussed specific
issues with the Project proposal and solicited additional information for consideration at the next
public hearing (August 22, 2012). Staff has organized those issues into the following broad
categories which will be explored in detail below:

1. Requirements to regulate noise;
2. Implementation of the proposed Trails Network;
3. Application of Ordinance No. 348.4729; and
4. Allowance of churches.

REQUIREMENTS TO REGULATE NOISE:

After hearing the public testimony, Commissioner Porras, Commissioner Roth and
Commissioner Snell raised concerns regarding noise generating from wineries (and their
incidental commercial uses) and its impact on existing and future residents of this region. The
Commissioners shared their specific ideas to regulate noise, some of which are addressed in
the current Project proposal.

During the Project development phase, similar concerns were raised regarding noise generating
from existing wineries. Many of these existing wineries and their commercial activities operated
without proper land use approvals. Therefore, the County engaged in a collaborative planning
and pro-active code enforcement approach to address the existing noise issues of the region.

The County staff created a database to identify all existing wineries and associated
commercial activities by conducting a comprehensive web-search of all businesses in
this region. This database identified that 46 wineries or other commercial uses were
operating without the appropriate County approvals.

The County Code Enforcement Department then provided advisory notices to these
businesses in order bring them in compliance with the appropriate County ordinances. If
those businesses had not applied for the appropriate County approval after 45-60 days,
they were cited with Code Violations and fines that increased with every citation. The
Department also created a specialized Wine Country Code Enforcement team to ensure
that the Code Officers were well-versed with code challenges unique to Wine Country.
Furthermore, the Department conducted weekend enforcement and provided a
dedicated phone-number to the area residents to file their complaints.

The aforementioned experience was used by the County staff and Ad Hoc Advisory Committee
as they engaged in developing a proposal for this Project. The following section outlines all the
various areas of the proposed Project, which are designed to regulate noise in this region and to
avoid land use conflicts in the future.

1) General Plan Amendment No. 1077:

The proposed General Plan Amendment No. 1077, through addition of the Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area, requires larger lot sizes for residential subdivisions and incidental
commercial uses as well as promotes clustered development. These design features of the
proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area are anticipated to reduce noise related
conflicts in this region.

a) The proposed Policy Area policy SWAP 1.5 restricts residential density for subdivisions
regardless of their underlying land use designations. This requirement would decrease
the number of residential units that would be exposed to wineries and their commercial
activities as well as would encourage residential subdivisions in the Wine Country-
Residential District.

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 3 of 15


SWAP 1.5 Require a density of ten (10) acres minimum for tentative approval of
residential tract and parcel maps after (adoption date) regardless of the
underlying land use designation except in the Wine Country Residential District
where a density of five (5) acres minimum shall apply.

b) The proposed Policy Area also promotes clustered development in a greater geographic
area (approximately 18,990 acres) than its proceeding policy area the Citrus Vineyard
Policy Area (approximately 7,576 acres). Furthermore, the proposed policy SWAP 1.15
requires that at least 75% of the project area be set aside as vineyards or equestrian
land compared to only 50% of the project area in the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area. These
implementing clustered developments are anticipated to provide contiguous open space
buffers between residential subdivisions and winery uses, which would reduce potential
land use conflicts in the future.

SWAP 1.15 Encourage tentative approvals of residential tract and parcel maps to
cluster development in conjunction with on-site vineyards or equestrian land
provided that the overall project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit
per five (5) acres. While the lot sizes in a clustered development may vary,
require a minimum lot size of 1 acre, with at least 75% of the project area
permanently set-aside as vineyards or equestrian land.

c) The current Citrus Vineyard Policy Area allows for lodging and special occasion facilities
without a winery, which does not promote the areas viticulture potential as envisioned in
its intent. The proposed Policy Area reinforces the areas viticulture potential and rural
characteristics by requiring wineries and equestrian establishments as the primary use
for all incidental commercial activities. Furthermore, the higher intensity commercial uses
are proposed on larger lot sizes compared to the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de los
Caballos Policy Areas, which would further reduce potential land use conflicts in the
future.

SWAP 1.4 Permit limited commercial uses such as wineries, sampling rooms,
and retail wine sales establishments on a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres to
promote viticulture potential of this region.
SWAP 1.11 Allow incidental commercial uses such as special occasion facilities,
hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries as
defined in the implementing zones.
SWAP 1.12 Encourage equestrian establishments that promote the equestrian
lifestyle as described in the Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) Zone.
SWAP 1.13 Permit incidental commercial uses such as western stores, polo
grounds, or horse racing tracks, petting zoos, event grounds, horse auction
facilities, horse show facilities, animal hospitals, restaurants, delicatessens, and
special occasion facilities in conjunction with commercial equestrian
establishments on lots larger than 10 acres to encourage equestrian tourism in
this community.

2) Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729:

To implement the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, Ordinance Amendment No.
348.4729 proposes to create four Winery County Zones by adding Section 14.90 through
Section 14.96 in Ordinance No. 348. The following sections of the proposed Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729 through permitted uses section and their development standards are
anticipated to reduce noise related conflicts in this region:

a) Wine Country Winery Zone:

Section 14.92.b.5. allows special occasion facilities, bed and breakfast inns, country
inns, hotels and restaurants with an established winery through a plot plan on 20 acres
minimum.
Section 14.92.c.2. allows resorts, amphitheaters, and golf courses with an established
winery through a conditional use permit on 40 minimum acres.

b) Wine Country Equestrian Zone:

Section 14.94.b.5 allows a commercial equestrian establishment through a plot plan on
10 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.b.6 allows petting zoos, polo-grounds, and horse show facilities with a
commercial equestrian establishment through a plot plan on 10 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.b.7 allows western style stores and restaurants with a commercial
equestrian establishment through a plot plan on 20 acres minimum.
Section 14.94.c.2 allows horse racing tracks or rodeo arenas and large scale hospitals
with a commercial equestrian establishment through a conditional use permit on 50
acres minimum.
Section 14.94.c.3 allows a horse racing track or rodeo arena and large scale hospital
with a commercial equestrian establishment through a conditional use permit on 100
acres minimum.

c) Development Standards:

Section 14.96.a.1 requires site layouts and building designs to minimize noise impacts
on surrounding properties and to comply with Ordinance No. 847.
Section 14.96.e.4 requires minimum setbacks of hundred feet (100) and three hundred
feet (300) when the facility is located next to Rancho California Road, Monte De Oro
Road, Anza Road, Glen Oaks Road, Pauba Road, De Portola Road, Buck Road, Borel
Road, Butterfield Stage Road, Calle Contento Road, Camino Del Vino Road, and
Highway 79 South for special occasion facilities.
Section 14.96.e.7 ensures loading, trash, and service areas for special occasion facilities
are screened by structures or landscaping and are located and designed in such a
manner as to minimize noise and odor impacts to adjacent properties.
Section 14.96.e.7 requires that all special occasion facilities conduct a noise study or an
acoustical analysis if an outdoor facility is proposed. Based on such study or analysis,

the Planning Director may deny or require as a condition of approval that the project
applicant enter into a good neighbor agreement with the surrounding neighbors.
Section 14.97.f.5 limits two hotel rooms per gross acre for lodging facilities.
Section 14.97.f.10 ensures that loading, trash, and service areas for lodging facilities are
screened by structures or landscaping and is located and designed in such a manner as
to minimize noise and odor impacts to adjacent properties.

3) Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) No. 524 - Noise Mitigation
Measures:

The Draft PEIR No. 524 provides Exhibit 4.12-2 (Attachment A), which identifies Existing and
Anticipated Winery Sites with Special Occasion Facilities potential. However, it will be
speculative to predict the nature, frequency, scale, and site-specific design feature of these
future special occasion facilities. Instead, the PEIR provides the following carefully crafted
Mitigation Measures to reduce noise impacts from implementing projects, including noise from
construction activities, winery operations and special occasion facilities.

NOI-1 All implementing projects shall comply with the following noise reduction measures during grading
and building activities:
If construction occurs within one-quarter mile of an inhabited dwelling, construction activities
shall be limited to the daytime hours of 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the months of June
through September, and to 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the months of October through May.
To minimize noise from idling engines, all vehicles and construction equipment shall be
prohibited from idling in excess of three minutes when not in use.
Best efforts should be made to locate stockpiling and/or vehicle staging area as far as
practicable from existing residential dwellings.
Equipment and trucks shall utilize the best available noise control techniques (e.g., improved
mufflers, equipment redesign, use of intake silencers, ducts, engine enclosures, and
acoustically-attenuating shields or shrouds, wherever feasible).
Impact tools (e.g., jack hammers, pavement breakers, and rock drills) shall be hydraulically or
electronically powered wherever possible to avoid noise associated with compressed air
exhaust from pneumatically powered tools. However, where use of pneumatic tools is
unavoidable, an exhaust muffler shall be used; this muffler can lower noise levels from the
exhaust by up to about ten dBA. External jackets on the tools themselves shall be used
where feasible, and this could achieve a reduction of five dBA. Quieter procedures shall be
used, such as drills rather than impact equipment, whenever feasible.
Stationary construction noise sources shall be located as far from adjacent receptors as
possible, and they shall be muffled and incorporate insulation barriers, or other measures to
the extent feasible.
NOI-2 Implementing project proponents shall submit a list of measures to respond to and track
complaints pertaining to construction noise, ongoing throughout demolition, grading, and/or
construction. These measures may include the following:
A sign posted on-site pertaining the permitted construction days and hours and complaint
procedures and who to notify in the event of a problem. The sign may also include a listing of
both the County and construction contractors telephone numbers (during regular
construction hours and off-hours); and

Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 6 of 15


A pre-construction meeting may be held with the job inspectors and the general
contractor/on-site project manager to confirm that noise measures and practices (including
construction hours, neighborhood notification, posted signs, etc.) are completed.

NOI-3 All implementing projects involving a new winery or expansion of an existing winery shall be
reviewed by the Riverside County Office of Industrial Hygiene and include at least the following
conditions:
The hours of operation for tasting rooms associated with wineries shall be limited to 9:00 a.m.
to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Winery District and 10:00 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Equestrian and Residential Districts.
Mechanical equipments including but not limited to, de-stemming, crushing, and refrigeration
equipment shall be enclosed or shielded for noise attenuation. Alternatively, the proponent
may submit a Noise Study prepared by a qualified acoustical analyst that demonstrates that
the unenclosed/unshielded equipment would not exceed the Countys allowable noise levels.
The hours of operation for shipping facilities associated with wineries shall be limited to 9:00
a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Winery District and 10:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday in the Wine Country - Equestrian and Residential
Districts.
Shipping facilities and parking areas which abut residential parcels shall be located away
from sensitive land uses and be designed to minimize potential noise impacts upon nearby
sensitive land uses.
Site-specific noise-attenuating features such as hills, berms, setbacks, block walls, or other
measures shall be considered for noise attenuation in noise-producing areas of future
wineries including, but not limited to, locations of mechanical equipment, locations of shipping
facilities, access, and parking areas.
NOI-4 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall be required to conduct a
noise study prior to its approval. Similarly, all implementing projects involving an outdoor special
occasion facility shall be required to conduct an acoustical analysis (that shows the noise
contours outside the property boundary) prior to its approval.
The said noise study or acoustical analysis shall be submitted to the Office of Industrial
Hygiene for review and comments.
Based on those comments, the implementing project shall be conditioned to mitigate noise
impacts to the applicable County noise standards through site design and buildings
techniques.
Prior to the issuance of any building permit for the special occasion facility, those noise
mitigation measures shall have received the necessary permits from Building and Safety
Department.
Prior to issuance of occupancy permit for the special occasion facility, those noise mitigation
measures shall be constructed/implemented.

NOI-5 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall be reviewed by the Riverside
County Office of Industrial Hygiene and include at least the following conditions:
All special event venders (e.g. DJs, musical bands, etc.) shall be notified regarding noise
conditions of approval .
Outdoor special events and associated audio equipment, sound amplifying equipment, and/or
performance of live music shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday
through Sunday.

Noise levels shall be kept below levels prescribed in the Countys General Plan Noise
Element and County noise Ordinances No. 847 by using a decibel-measuring device to
measure music sound levels when amplified music is used.
Clean-up activities associated with special events shall terminate no later than midnight.
Outdoor speakers for all scheduled events shall be oriented toward the center of the property
and away from adjoining land uses.
Padding/carpeting shall be installed under music speakers for early absorption of music.
NOI-6 All implementing projects involving a special occasion facility shall include at least the following
conditions to ensure proper enforcement of the County Ordinances and project conditions:
After issuance of two Code Violation Notices for excessive noise, noise measurements shall
be performed by the Office of Industrial Hygiene for every event at the property line, to
determine if the Noise Ordinance and project conditions are being followed during the special
events.
If violations of the Noise Ordinance or project conditions are found, the County shall
reconsider allowed hours of operation, number of guests, amount of special events per year,
or approval of the specific facility.
The proponents shall be required to pay fees assessed per the Department's hourly rate
pursuant to Ordinance No. 671.
NOI-7 Prior to the issuance of each grading permit, all implementing projects shall demonstrate
compliance with the following measures to reduce the potential for human annoyance and
architectural/structural damage resulting from elevated groundborne noise and vibration levels:
Pile driving within a 50-foot radius of occupied units or historic or potentially historic
structures shall utilize alternative installation methods where possible (e.g., pile cushioning,
jetting, pre-drilling, cast-in-place systems, resonance-free vibratory pile drivers).
If no alternative to pile driving is deemed feasible, the preexisting condition of all designated
historic buildings within a 50-foot radius of proposed construction activities shall be evaluated
during a preconstruction survey. The preconstruction survey shall determine conditions that
exist before construction begins for use in evaluating damage caused by construction
activities. Fixtures and finishes within a 50-foot radius of construction activities susceptible to
damage shall be documented (photographically and in writing) prior to construction. All
damage shall be repaired back to its preexisting condition.
Vibration monitoring shall be conducted prior to and during pile driving operations occurring
within 100 feet of the historic structures. Every attempt shall be made to limit construction-
generated vibration levels during pile driving and impact activities in the vicinity of the historic
structures.
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROPOSED TRAILS NETWORK:

A significant amount of public testimony was regarding the proposed Trails Network. Most of the
testimony supported the current proposal and encouraged the Commission to consider
implementation aspects associated with this proposal. The Commission asked staff to provide
them with a clear understanding on the proposed Trails Network and its implementation
information. The following table outlines various trail classifications and their respective
implementation information as envisioned in the proposed GPA No. 1077. In addition,
Attachment B provides a map of each proposed trail classification and their respective cross-
sections as proposed in the Project.

APPLICATION OF ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 348.4729:

In the first public hearing, a few members of the public asked questions regarding which type of
activities will fall under the proposed Projects purview and will require a zone change
application to ensure parcel specific zoning consistency. It was evident that further clarification
on this subject was essential to ease stakeholders concerns now, and the Projects
implementation in the future. The following section offers staffs interpretation of the proposal on
this subject (Attachment C).

Ordinance No. 348.4729 is a text amendment to the Countys Land Use Ordinance (Ordinance
No. 348) that adds four new zoning classifications. The four new zoning classifications (Wine
Country Zones) are: Wine Country Winery Zone, Wine Country Winery Existing Zone, Wine
Country Equestrian Zone, and Wine Country Residential Zone. The Wine Country Zones
would allow the County to implement the goals and policies of the proposed Temecula Valley
Wine Country Policy Area of the Riverside County General Plan. If the Board of Supervisors
adopts Ordinance No. 348.4729, then all future requests for discretionary land use entitlements
and land divisions within the Policy Area will require a change of zone to bring the property's
zoning classification within one of the Wine Country zones to be consistent with the General
Plan and would update the County's zoning map accordingly.

If the future proposed use for the property within the Wine Country Policy Area is a use
that is permitted by right under both Ordinance 348.4729 and the zoning classification
for the property that was in place immediately before the adoption of Ordinance No.
348.4729, then a change of zone application would not be required.

However, if the proposed future use is permitted by right under Ordinance No. 348.4729
but it was not permitted by right under the zoning classification in place immediately
before the adoption of Ordinance No. 348.4729, then a change of zone application
would be required.

ALLOWANCE OF CHURCHES:

Approximately 25 members of the public commented on the County not allowing churches in the
Project proposal. After hearing public testimony, the Commission directed staff to provide them
options that would allow places of religious worship in the Project proposal.
WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN General Plan Amendment No. 1077, Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729, and Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 11 of 15



The following information is provided in response to that direction:

Existing Condition:

Currently, under Ordinance No. 348 churches, temples and other places of religious worship are
not permitted uses in the C/V zoning classification. However, churches, temples and other
places of religious worship are permitted in approximately 27 of the Countys 38 zoning
classifications. If churches, temples and other places of religious worship wish to locate in one
of these 27 zones, they would need to obtain a plot plan or public use permit for the use
depending on the zoning classification. Similar nonreligious uses such as educational
institutions, fraternal lodge halls and recreational facilities are also required to obtain a plot plan
or public use permit in the specific zoning classification.

Additionally, the Projects boundaries apply to approximately 18,990 acres, while the
unincorporated area of Riverside County covers approximately 4,121,114 acres. As a result, the
Project applies to less than 1% of the land within Riverside County, leaving ample opportunity to
locate churches, temples and other places of worship elsewhere.

The Project:

The current Citrus Vineyard Rural Policy Area and C/V zone, as well as the proposed Wine
Country Policy Area and its implementing Wine Country zones, are developed to preserve and
enhance the viticulture potential of this region. Furthermore, these regulating documents allow
for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that are necessary to support economic
viability of the viticulture operations.

On December 28, 2009, the County issued a Notice of Preparation for the Wine Country
Community Plan Program Environmental Impact Report No. 524 (PEIR No. 524). On
J anuary 19, 2010, the County held a Scoping Meeting to discuss the scope and content
of the environmental information for the PEIR No. 524. At this point in time, churches,
temples, and other places of religious worship were not allowed in this region.
Furthermore, no application was filed for a church that indicated otherwise, or no
comments were received at the Scoping Meeting that suggested otherwise.

In March of 2011, Calvary Church submitted a Plot Plan application to expand its
existing church that is operating as a legal non-conforming use Public Use Permit No.
798 (PUP No. 798). PUP No. 798 was approved in 1999.

In September of 2011, the Planning Department developed a screen-check version of
the PEIR No. 524, which established the cut-off date for the proposed projects to be
included in the cumulative analysis. Since Calvary Church expansion application was
filed prior to this date, it was included in the PEIRs cumulative analysis for the Project.
However, Calvary Churchs proposed use that is the subject of the application is not a
component of the Project. Calvary Churchs application for expansion is being processed
separately and it is not before the Commission at this time for consideration.

Page 12 of 15


On December 05, 2011, the County issued a Notice of Availability of the Draft PEIR No.
524 for 60-days public review and comment period.

Issues of Consideration:

It should be stated that although a private school is a component of the Calvary Church
expansion proposal, public testimony at the first public hearing remained focused on the church
only. The Commission did not engage in any discussion regarding allowance of private schools
in the current Project proposal. However, staff wants to mention that private schools, like
churches, are not currently listed as a permitted use in the C/V zone, proposed Wine Country
zones, or Section 18.29 of Ordinance 348 through a Public Use Permit.

Alcohol Licensing Requirements:

Wineries in the Temecula Valley Wine Country generally receive #02 winegrower license,
which is a non-retail license from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC). The California Business and Professional Code Section 23358 (d) provides the following
for Alcohol License #02:

The department (ABC) may, if it shall determine for good cause that the granting of any such
privilege would be contrary to public welfare or morals, deny the right to exercise any on-sale
privilege authorized by this section in either a bona fide eating place the main entrance to which
is within 200 feet of a school or church, or on the licensed winery premises, or both.

If a winery wishes to sell distilled spirits, the ABC would require a #47 license to sell such spirits.
This license is considered a retail license. As a result, the license would be subject to the
restrictions set-forth in the California Business and Professional Code Section 23789, which
provides the following:

a) The department (ABC) is specifically authorized to refuse the issuance, other than renewal
or ownership transfer, of any retail license for premises located within the immediate vicinity
of churches and hospitals,
b) The department (ABC) is specifically authorized to refuse the issuance, other than renewal
or ownership transfer, of any retail license for premises located within at least 600 feet of
schools and public playgrounds or nonprofit youth facilities, including, but not limited to,
facilities serving Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, or Campfire Girls. This distance shall be measured
pursuant to rules of the department.

Riverside County Agricultural Commissioners Requirements:

The Temecula Valley Wine Country is located within the San J acinto District of the Riverside
County Agricultural Commissioners jurisdiction. The Agricultural Commissioner has specific
standard requirements for pesticide use conditions within this district. Per those requirements,
no foliar applications of pesticides are allowed within mile and no aircraft applications of
pesticides are allowed within mile of a school in session. Although aircraft applications of
pesticides are only occasionally used in the Temecula Valley Wine Country, foliar applications
are absolutely critical in sustaining vineyards and other agricultural operations in this region.

Options for Consideration:

After considering various aspects associated with this issue, staff proposes the following three
options to the Commission for their consideration. The Commission may elect one of the three
options, or consider creating a new one by combining the various components set-forth in the
three staff proposals.

OPTION 1 Allow Churches in the Project:

In their concluding remarks for the first hearing, the Planning Commission directed staff to
analyze and develop an option that includes places of religious worship in the Project proposal.
Option 1 takes that direction literally and proposes the following changes in the Project
proposal.

1. GPA No. 1077: In the proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area, a general
discussion regarding places of religious worship will be added. In addition, the proposed
SWAP 1.11 (under Wine Country Winery District) and SWAP 1.13 (under Wine
Country Equestrian District) will be revised to add churches, temples, and places of
religious worship as permitted uses in these districts.

2. Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729: The proposed Article XIVd will need to be revised
at multiple locations as follows:

a. Section 14.90 (Intent) A general discussion regarding places of religious will be
added.
b. Section 14.91 (Definitions) A definition for churches, temples, and places of
religious worship will be added.
c. Section 14.92b (Wine Country Winery Zone Conditionally Permitted Uses with
a Plot Plan) Churches, temples, and places of religious worship on a minimum
gross parcel size of twenty (20) acres will be added as the sixth permitted use.
d. Section 14.94c (Wine Country Equestrian Zone Conditionally Permitted Uses
with a Conditional Use Permit) Churches, temples, and places of religious
worship on a minimum gross parcel size of hundred (100) acres will be added as
the fourth permitted use.
e. Section 14.96e (Development Standards for Special Occasion Facilities) In the
introductory paragraph, a discussion for churches, temples, and places of
religious worship will be added.

The development scenario described in the proposed Project, and analyzed in the associated
PEIR No. 524, has not accommodated the intensity of multiple churches, temples, and places of
religious worship in this region. Should the Commission recommends this option, additional
analyses will be necessary which may result in a recirculation of the Draft PEIR, including but
not be limited to, land use, transportation and circulation, air quality, agricultural resources, and
noise.

PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT August 22, 2012
Page 14 of 15


OPTION 2 Remain with the existing Project Proposal:

In Option 2, the Commission recommends processing the current proposal for the Project and
Calvary Church continues to process the land use applications it submitted to the Planning
Department. No changes will be made to the proposed Project. The Calvary Church application
will be processed separately in the future, and it is not before the Commission at this time for
consideration.

OPTION 3 Exclusion of Calvary Parcels from the Project Boundary:

In Option 3, the Commission recommends to exclude both the Calvary Church parcels from the
proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. The Project proposal will be changed as
follows:

1. GPA No. 1077: The proposed Southwest Area Plan Policy Area Figure 4 and 4a will be
revised to remove the two Calvary Church parcels (Assessors Parcel Numbers: 943-
250-021 and 943-250-018).

Upon adoption of the Project, the two Calvary Church parcels will be excluded from the Projects
boundary and will maintain their existing land use designation and zoning classification. A text
change amendment to Ordinance No. 348 will still be needed to allow churches, temples, and
other places of religions worship as permitted uses in the C/V zoning classification. Since the
parcels are being removed from the Project, such amendment would only apply to those two
parcels and it should be able to tier off the environmental analyses contained in PEIR No. 524.


RECOMMENDATION:

DISCUSS AND CONTINUE to August 29 or September 26, 2012

1.1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
In 2008, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors (BOS) directed County staff to undertake the
development of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan (Project) in an effort to both
preserve Temecula Valleys distinct rural character and enhance its economic contribution to the County
over the long term.
The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan includes the adoption of General Plan Amendment
No. 1077, as well as the accompanying Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 (Project), which
will ensure consistency between the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The Project proposes a host of
revisions to the Southwest Area Plan of the current County General Plan to update existing policies,
maps, and implementing directions related to potential implementing projects within the Project area.
Refer to Section 3.0 for a detailed description of the various Project characteristics.
1.2 PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The purpose of the Project is to provide a blueprint for growth to ensure that future development
activities will enhance, not impede, the quality of life for existing and future residents, while providing
opportunities for continued development and expansion of winery and equestrian operations within this
part of the County.
The Project has been developed to achieve the following goals:
Ensure that the Wine Country region develops in an orderly manner that maximizes the areas
viticulture and related uses, and balances the need to protect existing rural lifestyles in the area.
Ensure that the Riverside County General Plan and its supporting regulatory documents, such as
the Zoning Ordinance and Design Guidelines, provide a comprehensive blueprint that will
achieve the communitys vision.
Ensure adequate provisions for the establishment of wineries and equestrian operations,
associated auxiliary uses, and other compatible uses, as deemed appropriate.
To achieve these goals, the Project incorporates the following objectives:
To preserve and enhance the Wine Country regions viticulture potential, rural life style and
equestrian activities.
To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that is incidental to
viticulture activities.
To coordinate where, and under what circumstances, future growth should be accommodated.
To develop provisions to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated with the
appropriate public services, infrastructure and other basic necessities for a healthy, livable
community.

1.6 SIGNIFICANT AND UNAVOIDABLE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
While the specific mitigation measures summarized above would reduce the level of many significant
impacts to a less than significant level, the Draft EIR identified the following areas where, after
implementation of feasible mitigation, the Project may nonetheless result in impacts which cannot be
fully mitigated. Various benefits would accrue from implementation of the Project, which must be
weighed against the potential adverse effects of Project implementation in deciding whether to approve
the Project. These potential benefits will be set forth in a Statement of Overriding Considerations,
which is required by CEQA prior to approving a project with unavoidable significant impacts. In addition,
as discussed in the Draft EIR, the proposed Project, while representing a substantial increase in new
development compared to existing conditions, it is considerably less dense than currently allowed in the
Countys General Plan Policies and zoning classifications.
PROJECT IMPACTS
Agricultural and Forestry Resources
While the Project policies and implementing zoning classifications would increase the acreage of
designated Agricultural land uses and may in turn increase the acreage of agricultural uses, it is possible
that implementing project sites could be located on Prime Farmland (or another designation indicating
agricultural suitability) and would allow development of up to 25 percent of the total Project area based
on proposed Policy SWAP 1.2 which allows up to 25 percent of a subject site to be developed with
winery and other associated facilities (e.g., delicatessens, tasting rooms, special event facilities, etc.).
Additionally, under the Project, active agricultural land would be allowed to convert 25 percent of its
land to non-agricultural uses. Therefore, the Project could convert agriculturally suitable farmland, such
as Prime Farmland, and active agricultural land to non-agricultural uses. As such, this potential
conversion would generate a significant, unavoidable impact on agricultural resources.
Air Quality
Unavoidable significant impacts have been identified for Project-level and cumulative air quality impacts
related to construction and operations activities (i.e., stationary and mobile source emissions) as well as
air quality impacts on sensitive receptors.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Implementation and compliance with the Countys policies will ensure that impacts from GHG emissions
are minimized. However, construction and operation of implementing projects would create an
increase in GHG emissions that are above South Coast Air Quality Management Districts (SCAQMD)
draft mass emission thresholds and CARBs per capita threshold.
Compliance with proposed County of Riverside SWAP policies will ensure consistency with the numeric
GHG-reduction goals of AB 32 and be consistent with promulgated plans, polices, and regulations
governing the reduction of GHG emissions. Because these features and measures would meaningfully
reduce Project GHG emissions and are consistent with the state and local goals, the Project is supportive
of the States goals regarding global climate change. However, Project impacts to global climate change,
both at the Project level and cumulative level, are still potentially significant and unavoidable, due to the
overall increase in emissions as compared to existing conditions.

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-48
Noise
Given that it is not possible to predict the specific nature, frequency or location of all of the wineries or
all of the special events, some stationary source activity may still represent unacceptable noise exposure
within the Wine Country, particularly for existing sensitive receptors. This unavoidable impact will be
reduced through compliance with policies, ordinances and Mitigation Measures NOI-1 through NOI-6
noted above, and will be implemented by the County on a project-by-project basis.
In addition, due to the amount of traffic trips that would be generated in association with the proposed
permitted land uses, mobile source noise impacts would be significant and unavoidable.
Public Services and Utilities
Fire Protection Services
Implementation of the Project would have a cumulative adverse impact on the Fire Departments ability
to provide an acceptable level of service. Impacts include an increased number of emergency and public
service calls and a decreased level of service due to the increased presence of structures, traffic, and
population (including transient tourists).
The availability of sufficient funding to equip and staff new facilities may not be available over the long
term and the ability of the Department to negotiate for adequate funding for either construction or
long-term staffing with individual developers is uncertain. Accordingly, even with the implementation of
the proposed mitigation, the Project could result in an indirect, cumulatively considerable contribution
to a potentially significant cumulative impact.
Libraries
Based on the current Riverside County standard, there are insufficient library facilities available to
provide the targeted level of service to the Project area and the balance of the service area of the two
existing libraries in the Temecula area. Therefore, implementing projects within the Project area would
make an indirect but cumulatively considerable contribution to that existing deficiency, resulting in a
potentially significant cumulative impact on library facilities and services.
Traffic
The Project would generally improve operations compared to the adopted General Plan; however, long-
term operational traffic resulting from operation of the Project would still contribute to a potentially
significant and unavoidable impact related to degradation of levels of service in the Project area.
The Project would contribute a fair share contribution toward improving affected roadway segments
and intersections through a Community Facilities District (CFD) financing plan, as well as a fair share
contribution, which would allow the segments and intersections to operate at acceptable levels of
service. However, since some segments and/or intersections are controlled by the City of Temecula, the
Pechanga Band of Luiseo Indians and/or Caltrans, the County cannot guarantee implementation of the
identified improvements. In addition, remaining funding outside the CFD has not been guaranteed and
there is limited right-of-way to facilitate freeway and ramp expansion. Therefore, the levels of service
impacts are considered potentially significant and unavoidable.

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-49
Growth-inducing Impact
The Project will allow for various onsite and offsite infrastructure improvements that could remove
impediments to growth and/or provide for additional capacity. The Project could also result in direct job
growth through increased employment opportunities as a result of the proposed update of the existing
Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) and other elements of the General Plan. Due to its size, its incremental
implementation, its impact on infrastructure, and the potential direct and indirect economic growth
associated with it, the Project would be viewed as growth-inducing pursuant to CEQA.
CUMULATIVE IMPACTS
Air Quality
Unavoidable significant impacts have been identified for Project-level and cumulative air quality impacts
related to construction and operations activities (i.e., stationary and mobile source emissions) as well as
air quality impacts on sensitive receptors. If the County of Riverside approves the Project, the County
shall be required to adopt findings of fact in accordance with Section 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines, as
well as adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations in accordance with Section 15093 of the CEQA
Guidelines.
Greenhouse Gases
Implementation and compliance with the Countys policies will ensure that impacts from GHG emissions
are minimized. However, construction and operation of implementing projects would create an
increase in GHG emissions that are above SCAQMDs draft mass emission thresholds and CARBs per
capita threshold. Compliance with proposed County of Riverside SWAP policies will ensure consistency
with the numeric GHG-reduction goals of AB 32 and be consistent with promulgated plans, polices, and
regulations governing the reduction of GHG emissions. Because these features and measures would
meaningfully reduce Project GHG emissions and are consistent with the state and local goals, the Project
is supportive of the States goals regarding global climate change. However, Project impacts to global
climate change, both at the Project level and cumulative level, are still potentially significant and
unavoidable, due to the overall increase in emissions as compared to existing conditions.
Noise
Buildout of the Project would result in potential cumulative noise level increases along major roadways.
Project implementation would result in significant cumulative noise impacts that could not be mitigated
with the implementation of the proposed policies and mitigation measures. Thus, the Project would
substantially contribute to cumulative mobile source noise impacts.
It may also be possible for multiple stationary sources such as special events or wineries to operate
concurrently and in close proximity, which could further add to cumulative noise impacts. The Project
may result in significant stationary source impacts, even with implementation of mitigation measures
and applicable policies and ordinances.
Public Services and Utilities
The Project may, in combination with existing conditions and other future implementing projects, result
in unavoidable significant cumulative impacts in the areas of fire protection services and library services.

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-50
Traffic
The Project may, in combination with existing conditions and other future implementing projects, result
in a conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance, or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for the
performance of the circulation system and level of service degradation to unacceptable levels. The
Project may result in significant traffic-related impacts, even with implementation of mitigation
measures and applicable policies and ordinances.
1.7 SUMMARY OF PROJECT ALTERNATIVES
This is a summary of the Project alternatives described in Section 6.0, Alternatives, which contains a
detailed discussion. The Project alternatives have been designed to achieve the Project objectives and to
minimize/reduce/alleviate identified environmental impacts, or were specifically requested for
consideration during the preparation of the EIR.
The Project alternatives considered in EIR No. 524 are:
No Project/Existing General Plan Policies and Zoning Classifications Alternative
Reduced Density (25% Reduction) Alternative
Alternatives rejected from further consideration:
Pending General Plan Amendments Approval Alternative (Pending Amendments Alternative)
Alternative Location Alternative
One Policy Area / One Zone Alternative
No Build Scenario/Existing Condition Alternative
Descriptions of the first three rejected alternatives (i.e., Pending General Plan Amendments Approval,
Alternative Location, and One Policy/One Zone Alternatives) are provided in Section 6.4 of this Draft EIR.
However, a description of the No Build Scenario/Existing Condition Alternative is provided, as it
describes the CEQA baseline against which the Project is analyzed (an alternative in which only existing
development occupies the site).
NO BUILD SCENARIO/EXISTING CONDITION ALTERNATIVE
The No Build Scenario/Existing Condition Alternative (No Build Scenario) assumes that the future
implementing projects envisioned under the Project would not occur, and the Project site would remain
in its existing condition. This alternative assumes the breakdown of land use acreages listed in Table
3.0-1, Existing Land Use Acreages, provided in the Project Description. Essentially, this alternative
assumes that only the existing development that is presently on the ground would occupy the Project
site into the future.
No additional implementing projects would be considered/approved/developed within the Project site.
The existing wineries, residential, equestrian and vacant, open space would remain, and property
owners may continues to utilize their parcel as they are currently being used.
It is important to note that this alternative does not reflect the future growth envisioned in the
Southwest Area Plan, existing Citrus Vineyard Policy Area, or the Project objectives. The site is currently

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-51
designated for development in a manner relatively similar to the Project (albeit with more development
intensity and density and more incompatibility in land uses). The Countys General Plan reflects this
designation, and there have been no indications by County staff, elected officials or the public through
the EIR scoping process that there is a desire to preserve the site in its current state and without
additional infrastructure support.
The No Build Alternative does not meet many of the basic Project objectives because it does not
implement a comprehensive and cohesive plan for the physical and economic development of the
Project area, does not enhance the Wine Country regions viniculture potential, rural lifestyle and
equestrian activities, does not continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities,
does not coordinate where and under what circumstances future growth should be accommodated, and
does not develop provisions to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated with appropriate
public services, infrastructure and other basic necessities for a healthy, livable community.
It does not provide for adequate water distribution, sewer, flood control, circulation, and water quality
improvements. The No Build Alternative would also be inconsistent with the County General Plan,
would fail to provide increased revenue, employment and entertainment opportunities within the
County, and would not provide the various infrastructure and service improvements associated with the
Project. For these reasons, this Alternative is not under consideration by the County.
NO PROJECT/EXISTING GENERAL PLAN POLICIES AND ZONING CLASSIFICATIONS ALTERNATIVE
In accordance with CEQA Guidelines, the No Project Alternative for a project on an identifiable property
or set of properties consists of the circumstance under which the project does not proceed. Section
15126.6(e)(3)(A) of the Guidelines states that, when the project is the revision of an existing land use or
regulatory plan, policy or ongoing operation, the no project alternative will be the continuation of the
existing plan... For purposes of this analysis, the No Project/Existing General Plan Policies and Zoning
Classifications Alternative (No Project Alternative) assumes this condition. Accordingly, the No Project
Alternative assumes that development of implementing projects as allowed under the Project would not
occur, and that the Project site would instead remain subject to the provisions contained within the
current, non-amended General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Each parcel within the site would be subject
to the requirements of its corresponding General Plan land use designation for those properties outside
of the Citrus/Vineyard and Valle de los Caballos Policy Area. For parcels within these Policy Areas, the
General Plan land use designation would apply, in conjunction with the applicable zoning classifications.
This alternative also assumes that most of the entitlements applications currently on file with the
County would be approved and constructed as proposed within the Project site.
The existing General Plan and Policy Areas (i.e., No Project Alternative) in their current state are
anticipated to provide a mix of uses which would include a larger number of acres within the Rural and
Rural Community Foundation Components (as displayed in Table 3.0-3). However, with these existing
regulations, the build-out of the Project area is anticipated to include less acres under the Agriculture
and Open Space Foundation Components. The existing General Plan would not establish the proposed
three Districts (i.e., Winery, Residential, and Equestrian) as proposed under the Project and, thus, would
not ensure to the same degree the long-term viability of the wine industry and would not serve to
protect the communitys equestrian and rural lifestyle.
The existing General Plan in its current state (i.e., pursuant to the existing Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area)
would require incidental commercial uses for wineries on a minimum of 10 acres. The Project would

1.0 Executive Summary



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-52
require a minimum of 10 acres only for these uses on existing wineries identified in the SWAP (Figure
4a). For all other wineries incidental commercial uses a 20-acre minimum lot size would be required.
Based on the existing land uses designation and Policy Areas within the Project area, this alternative
would result in a 58.4% increase in dwelling units and population, while generating a 25.4% increase in
employment/other (which is the category used to quantify the number of employees and tourists
anticipated to visit the Project area) compared to the Project.
The existing General Plan would not include the circulation improvements identified in the traffic study
prepared for the Project (i.e., traffic signalization, re-striping, addition of lanes, dedication of lanes,
creation of intersections, creation of new roadway linkages). While nothing in the existing General Plan
or zoning would preclude these improvements from developing at a later data with the appropriate
permits and approvals (e.g., GPA), this alternative does not propose or plan for these updates to the
circulation network. The General Plan, Trails and Bicycle System map (Figure 8) would also remain as is,
meaning compared to the Project, the Project area would not provide the same level of pedestrian,
equestrian, and bicycle circulation options.
This Alternative, due to its substantially greater density than the proposed Project, would result in
substantially greater impacts in nearly all environmental topical areas, particularly for traffic, air quality,
noise, aesthetics, and public services and utilities. A detailed quantitative comparison of the No Project
Alternative with the proposed Project is provided below in Table 1.0-2 of this Draft EIR, and in Appendix
J of this Draft EIR. For these reasons, this Alternative is not under consideration by the County.

REDUCED DENSITY (25% REDUCTION) ALTERNATIVE
The purpose of the Reduced Density Alternative is to reduce impacts from the Project related to the
number of units developed and the intensity of commercial development, including wineries. Under
this alternative, the total number of residential dwelling units anticipated is assumed to be reduced
from 1,916 to 1,437 representing a reduction of 479 units, or approximately 25%. In addition, it is
anticipated that commercial square footage would be reduced by 25% under this alternative.
This reduced density alternative may not have the same design features as the Project, and therefore,
the impacts of this alternative could be greater than or less than the impacts of the Project with regard
to specific issue areas. As a variation of this alternative, the site could be developed with higher density
product in a cluster development fashion, leaving increased natural open space and reducing the
extent and cost of infrastructure improvements and site grading.
The Reduced Density Alternative may not require the same level of circulation, water, sewer, flood
control and other infrastructure improvement based on a reduction in population, employment, and
tourists within the Project site (due to the lower allowable intensity of use in the Project site).
This alternative may partially accomplish the objectives enumerated for the Project. However, the
future growth of the Project area would be reduced compared to the Project. The level of commercial
tourist activities envisioned under the current General Plan and this Project would not be reached as
effectively through implementation of this alternative, due to less density and interactive synergy
produced by the Projects balance of wineries/commercial tourism, equestrian and residential uses.
Feasibility and funding of required infrastructure would also be more challenging under this Alternative
due to a reduced development base from which to derive fees and other funding sources, and much of
this infrastructure would be similar to that required for the Project. Finally, it should be noted that the
Project already represents a reduced density from what is currently allowed in the General Plan and
Policy Areas.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SUPERIOR ALTERNATIVE
Section 15126(d) of the State CEQA Guidelines indicates that an analysis of alternatives to the Project
shall identify one alternative to the project as the environmentally superior alternative. Table 1.0-3
below provides a summary matrix that compares the impacts associated with the Project with the
impacts of each of the proposed alternatives. Of the alternatives analyzed in this EIR, the Reduced
Density (25%) Alternative is considered environmentally superior overall. Even with a 25% reduction,
there would still be significant and unavoidable project impacts associated with air, greenhouse gas
emissions, agricultural resources, noise, traffic, and growth-inducing impacts.
1.8 AREAS OF CONTROVERSY AND ISSUES TO BE RESOLVED
Section 15123 (b)(2) and (3) requires that the EIR summary identify areas of controversy known to the

Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-1
3.1 PROJECT SUMMARY
The Temecula Valley Wine Country Community Plan includes the adoption of General Plan Amendment
No. 1077, as well as the accompanying Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 (Project), which
will ensure consistency between the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The Project proposes a host of
revisions to the Southwest Area Plan of the current County General Plan to update existing policies,
maps, and implementing directions related to potential implementing projects within the Project area.
Refer to Section 3.6 below for a detailed description of the various Project characteristics.
3.2 PROJECT LOCATION
The Project is generally located in the Southwest Area Plan in the southwestern portion of
unincorporated Riverside County, approximately three miles north of the border with San Diego County
(refer to Exhibit 3.0-1, Regional Location Map). The Project covers approximately 18,990 acres of land
located east of the City of Temecula, south of Lake Skinner, and northwest of Vail Lake (refer to Exhibit
3.0-2, Policy Area Map). This area contains some of Riverside Countys prime agriculture lands within
the Temecula Valley.
3.3 EXISTING AND SURROUNDING LAND USES
EXISTING GENERAL PLAN LAND USES/ ZONING CLASSIFICATIONS
The existing General Plan land uses within the Project area currently consist of a mixture of Agriculture:
Agriculture (AG:AG)
1
, Rural: Rural Residential (R:RR) and Rural Mountainous (R:RM), Rural Community:
Estate Density Residential (RC:EDR), and Community Development: Commercial Tourist (CD:CT) and
Medium Density Residential (CD:MDR).
In addition, the zoning for the Project area primarily includes Citrus/Vineyard (C/V), Commercial
Citrus/Vineyard (C-C/V), Light Agriculture (A-1), Heavy Agriculture (A-2), Rural Agriculture (R-A), and
Rural Residential (R-R) classifications with varying lot size requirements (ranging from to 20 acre
minimums).
EXISTING LAND USES
Many of the existing uses within the Project area are composed of rural residential, single-family lots
(greater than one acre in size), vineyards and wineries and auxiliary uses, citrus groves, equestrian uses
including residential uses with equestrian amenities (e.g., barns, arenas, stables, etc.), and vacant
undeveloped properties. At this time there are a total of approximately 42 existing wineries located
within the Project area. Ancillary uses to the wineries include bed and breakfast inns, restaurants, and
special occasion facilities which are used for events such as parties, weddings, and other social
gatherings. Table 3.0-1, Existing Land Use Acreages, below includes a summary of the existing land uses
in the Project area.

Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 1.0-56
County staffs review of available information and comments received from the general public and other
public agencies in response to the Notice of Preparation and public scoping meetings (Appendix A), the
following issues may be either controversial or require further resolution:
Total Dissolved Solids (salinity) in basin groundwater, which is currently limiting new
development
Specific timing and funding for infrastructure is in the process of development for wastewater
and transportation, and is yet to be developed for potable/reclaimed water and drainage.
Noise impacts, both from existing operations and potential future operations, particularly
related to special event noise.
Traffic impacts, on both a local community level and a regional level.
There are numerous development proposals currently in various stages of County review, some
of which may be approved prior to the new Wine Country Community Plan zoning taking effect.
The ultimate timing, location and nature of future development in the Wine Country is
uncertain. County staff has made estimates of future land uses based on detailed review of
parcel data using County GIS technologies and community participation.
These issues have been considered in this EIR, where applicable.

SURROUNDING LAND USES
The Temecula Valley Wine Country region of Riverside County is surrounded by the urbanizing cities of
Temecula and Murrieta to the west, San Diego County to the south, and the unincorporated community
of Sage to the east. Land uses within the Project area include agricultural and natural open spaces, rural
communities and estate lots, to vacant land designated for future residential and commercial
developments, existing residential and commercial development associated with wineries depending on
their locations. Adjacent land uses include all of the foregoing and also include existing residential
subdivisions, retail commercial, educational and office uses in the vicinity of Butterfield Stage Road,
Rancho California Road and Highway 79. Lake Skinner, Vail Lake, campgrounds and RV parks, and related
recreational amenities are also located in the immediate vicinity of the Project area.
3.4 PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Section 15124(b) of the CEQA Guidelines indicates that an EIR should include a statement of objectives
sought by the proposed Project. The purpose of the Project is to provide a blueprint for growth to
ensure that future development activities will enhance, not impede, the quality of life for existing and
future residents, while providing opportunities for continued development and expansion of winery
operations within this part of the County.



3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-3
The Project has been developed to achieve the following goals:
Ensure that the Wine Country region develops in an orderly manner that maximizes the areas
viticulture and related uses, and balances the need to protect existing rural lifestyles in the area.
Ensure that the Riverside County General Plan and its supporting regulatory documents, such as
the Zoning Ordinance and Design Guidelines, provide a comprehensive blueprint that will
achieve the communitys vision.
Ensure adequate provisions for the establishment of wineries and equestrian operations,
associated auxiliary uses, and other compatible uses, as deemed appropriate.

To achieve these goals, the Project incorporates the following objectives:
To preserve and enhance the Wine Country regions viticulture potential, rural life style and
equestrian activities.
To continue to allow for an appropriate level of commercial tourist activities that is incidental to
viticulture activities.
To coordinate where, and under what circumstances, future growth should be accommodated.
To develop provisions to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated with the
appropriate public services, infrastructure and other basic necessities for a healthy, livable
community.
3.5 BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
The Project is located in the southwestern portion of Riverside County and is covered by the Southwest
Area Plan (SWAP) of the Countys General Plan. This area contains some of the most important
agricultural lands in the County. In response to the increased development activity that has occurred in
the area over the past decade, County staff is currently conducting a comprehensive review of the
regions vision, policies and development standards as part of the Countys General Plan update,
initiated in 2008. Previous efforts to guide development in the SWAP included the creation of two policy
areas intended to promote agricultural and equestrian uses described below.
CITRUS VINEYARD POLICY AREA
In 1989 the County recognized the special character of a portion of the Project area by creating the
Citrus Vineyard Policy Area within the Southwest Area Plan. This Policy Area encompasses a majority
of the agricultural uses within the Project area (east of Temecula and north/south of Rancho California
Road as depicted on Exhibit 3.0-3, Existing Policy Area Overlay). The Citrus Vineyard Policy Area
included specific policies to ensure the protection of the communitys distinct character and to ensure
continuation of its rural lifestyle along with the continued development of wine production in
southwestern Riverside County. The wineries that dot this Policy Area are both a significant tourist
attraction and an economic engine that provides significant benefit to the County and surrounding
municipalities. The policies of the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area are also intended to protect against the
development of uses that are incompatible with agriculture and which could lead to conflicts with
adjacent uses. The following policies have been established for the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area:
SWAP 1.1 Maintain a rural and agricultural character in the Citrus/Vineyard area through
continued implementation of the C/V zone and judicious use of the C-C/V zone.


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-4
These zones help achieve the desired character by requiring that commercial
buildings, wineries, citrus processing operations, and bed and breakfast inns be
designed in a rural or wine-country theme and by discouraging curbs,
gutters, sidewalks, and street lights.
SWAP 1.2 Require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new residential tract maps and
parcel maps.
SWAP 1.3 Encourage clustered developments in conjunction with onsite provision of
vineyards for new residential tract maps and parcel maps where appropriate. In
case of a clustered development, the overall project density yield must not
exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. While the lot sizes in a clustered
development may vary, require a minimum lot size of 1 acre, with at least 50%
of the project area set aside for permanent provision of vineyards.
SWAP 1.4 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as retail wine
sales/sampling rooms, incidental gift sales, restaurants excluding drive-through
facilities, and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on 10 acres or more
provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail wine sales are
grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons of wine annually.
SWAP 1.5 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as bed and breakfast
inns on 5 acres or more, and country inns and special occasion facilities on 10
acres or more, provided that at least 75% of the project site is planted in
vineyards.
SWAP 1.6 Continue to provide for incidental commercial uses, such as bed and breakfast
inns on 10 acres or more, country inns on 15 acres or more, and hotels on 20
acres or more, in conjunction with wineries provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail wine sales are
grown or raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons of wine annually.
VALLE DE LOS CABALLOS POLICY AREA
This Policy Area is located east of the City of Temecula, west of the Vail Lake Policy Area and south of
the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area (Exhibit 3.0-3, Existing Policy Area Overlay). The Valle de los Caballos
area is characterized by gently rolling hills and equestrian, rural residential, and agricultural activities.
Most of the land in the area is subdivided into parcels of 10 acres or more, which fosters a very low
intensity, rural lifestyle. The primary policy established for this area is as follows:
SWAP 2.1 Require a 10-acre minimum lot size for residential development within the Valle
de los Caballos Policy Area, regardless of the underlying land use designation.

3.5.3 WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN HISTORY
In 2008, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors (BOS) directed County staff to undertake the
development of the Project in an effort to both preserve the areas distinct rural character and enhance
its economic contribution to the County over the long term. The BOS approved funding for the Project in
March 2009. As presently envisioned, the Project incorporates the Citrus Vineyard Policy Area, the Valle
de los Caballos Policy Areas and additional, adjacent unincorporated areas with similar characteristics.
Since its initiation, the Project has achieved the following milestones:
June 2009 - County staff initiated the Wine Country Vision 2020 survey, which sought input from
the Wine Country residents/property owners within the Project area to refine the vision for the
Temecula Valley Wine Country, regarding this unique communitys future.
July 2009 - Planning staff introduced a land use proposal to reflect Supervisor Stones vision to a
smaller Advisory Committee comprised of vintners.
December 2009 - The Advisory Committee expanded to include equestrian interests and
environmental work efforts in support of the Project was initiated pursuant to California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Components of the Project included General Plan
Amendment No. 1077 - Southwest Area Plan (Policy Area, Circulation and Trails Networks), an
amendment to the Countys Zoning Ordinance No. 348 to create the Citrus Vineyard (C-V) and
commercial Citrus Vineyard (C/C-V) zones, and revisions to the adopted Citrus Vineyard Policy
Area Design Guidelines.
January 2010 - The Advisory Committee began holding monthly meetings to discuss issues
associated with the Project.
July 2010 - The Committee expanded further to include residential stakeholders and requested
assistance for a Real Use Inventory of properties within the Project area.
October 2010 - Following an open house, County staff addressed the issue of non-conforming
uses within the Project area by changing focus on the General Plan.
January 2011 County staff initiated the process of retaining an environmental consultant to
assist with the preparation of the Program EIR.
May 2011 to Present Beginning in May, County staff has been working closely with several
stakeholders (including public agencies and other interested parties) as well as their consultants
to complete the preparation of the Draft Program EIR. This process has included numerous
meetings with County staff, other public agency staff, the environmental consultants, and
technical consultants and the preparation of studies in support of the Program EIRs
environmental analysis. Working together this group prepared the Draft Program EIR for
release for public review.
3.6 PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS
OUTLINE OF INDIVIDUAL WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN (PROJECT) COMPONENTS
The Project, which requires the approval of General Plan Amendment No. 1077 and Zoning Ordinance
Amendment No. 348.4729, includes the following components:
a) An amendment of the existing Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) and other elements of the
General Plan including, but not be limited to:

Deletion of the boundaries of the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de Los Caballos Policy Areas
(SWAP Policy Areas Figure 4) and addition of the boundary of the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area [refer to Exhibit 3.0-4];
Revisions to the Circulation Network (SWAP Figure 7) [refer to Exhibit 3.0-7];
Revisions to the Trails and Bikeway Systems map (SWAP Figure 8) [refer to Exhibit 3.0-
8];
Revisions to the General Plan Circulation Element Circulation Network (Figure C-1) [refer
to Exhibit 3.0-7];
Revisions to the General Plan Circulation Element Trails Network (Figure C-7) [refer to
Exhibit 3.0-8]; and
Amendment to any other portions of the General Plan reflecting changes arising from
the proposed SWAP amendments.
b) An amendment to the Riverside County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 to add four new Zoning
Classifications that implement the General Plan: Wine Country - Winery; Wine Country - Winery
Existing; Wine Country - Residential; and Wine Country - Equestrian.
c) Replacement of the existing Citrus Vineyard Policy Area Design Guidelines with the Temecula
Valley Wine Country Design Guidelines.
Note that the Notice of Preparation and Initial Study (2009) for the Project included a review and
update of the existing County Ordinance including Ordinance No. 348 and a Change of Zone No.
7711, which was intended to include parcel specific zoning map changes to ensure consistency
between the General Plan and County Ordinance No. 348. However, through the collaborative process
of Project development with the Advisory Committee, it was determined that consistency would be
better implemented on a project-by-project basis in accordance with the proposed amendment to
Zoning Ordinance No. 348. Therefore, Change of Zone No. 771 is no longer being proposed as part of
this Project. The Project still includes the amendment to Riverside County Zoning Ordinance No. 348
under Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729 as described above.
WINE COUNTRY COMMUNITY PLAN LAND USES
The Project is intended to prepare for future controlled growth within southwestern Riverside County
and to achieve the following four objectives within the Project area:
Increase viticulture potential;
Protect rural lifestyle and equestrian activities;
Allow appropriate levels of commercial tourist activities; and
Ensure that future growth within the Project area is coordinated to avoid land use conflicts and
provide appropriate levels of public facilities, services, and infrastructure.
Unlike the parcel-specific land use designations of the usual General Plan Land Use Plans, the Project
makes use of the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to depict the regions three distinct


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-7
districts: Winery, Residential, and Equestrian. As such, these Districts require unique methodologies for
determining population, dwelling unit and employment/winery projections.
Table 3.0-2, Wine Country Planning Assumptions provides a typical land use breakdown for each District.
The following are general guidelines intended to indicate an anticipated mix of uses and to provide a
means for calculating estimated build out projections. In the course of Project implementation, the
actual land use breakdown will be determined on a case-by-case basis as implementing projects occur
and is expected to differ somewhat from the assumptions below. As described above, the Winery
impact generation for commercial land uses in the Winery District differs from the commercial land use
assumptions of the Residential and Equestrian Districts. Residential and Equestrian Districts use
combination of assumptions in General Plan and Winery, since the two Districts could potentially have
other commercial uses different from the Winery District, especially in the Equestrian District.

As previously noted, the Project covers approximately 18,990 acres of land proposed for winery, rural
residential and equestrian uses in the unincorporated areas east of the City of Temecula (Exhibit 3.0-4,
Wine Country Community Plan Area). The land uses that would be allowed by the Project are similar to
the existing uses currently allowed by the existing General Plan and Zoning Ordinance No. 348; however,
the apportionment of these uses would be altered. Refer to Table 3.0-3, Land Use Designations by
Foundation Components. Foundation Components are a grouping of similar land uses designations. The
General Plan Land Use Map consists of five broad Foundation Component land uses: Agriculture, Rural,
Rural Community, Open Space, and Community Development.

Source: Draft EIR Appendix J, Land Use Buildout Analysis

Based on the land use assumptions for the Project, the County is anticipating that implementation of the
Project, at full build-out, will result in approximately 1,916 dwelling units resulting in a population of
5,770 residents. In addition to this, approximately 44,004 employees and visitors are anticipated to
work/ visit the Project area at buildout. It is anticipated that a majority of new implementing projects
that occur will be focused on the vacant and agricultural lands within the Project area, which are
scattered throughout the three Districts. The anticipated development is consistent with the primary
objectives of the Project, which seeks to ensure that future growth is balanced and coordinated in such
a way that the rural lifestyle, viticulture, and equestrian activities in the Project area are preserved and
enhanced.
County-Preferred Land Use Alternative
During the development of the Project, County staff developed different land use scenarios for the
Project areas various sub-regions. The development scenario described above, and analyzed in the
Program EIR, is considered the worst-case scenario or most intense potential scenario within the
18,990-acre Project area. However, County staff has identified potential areas that may ultimately be
excluded from the Project due to environmental issues and/or land use conflicts. CEQA requires the
Program to base its impact analysis on the projected worst-case buildout scenario; however, the
Program EIR environmental analysis and public hearing process is expected to result in the identification
of a County-Preferred Land Use Alternative that would provide for the development of a modified
plan that reduces identified impacts as compared to those analyzed in this Program EIR. This potential


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-9
reduction could result in a reduced Project footprint and/or land use changes that would result in less
intense development than presently proposed in the worst-case development scenario. Refer to
Exhibit 3.0-5, Wine Country Policy Area with Districts. This alternative may be considered and approved
by the Board of Supervisors and incorporated into the identified Project implementation documents
noted above.
TEMECULA VALLEY WINE COUNTRY POLICY AREA
As depicted in Exhibit 3.0-5, Wine Country Policy Area with Districts, the Temecula Valley Wine Country
Policy Area is divided into three Districts Winery, Equestrian and Residential to ensure the long-term
viability of the areas wine industry while protecting the communitys equestrian rural lifestyle. Each
District of the Policy Area has a corresponding implementing zone, except the Winery District, which has
two implementing zones: one for existing wineries (Wine Country - Winery Existing [WC-WE]) and
another for proposed wineries (Wine Country - Winery [WC-W]).
The overarching policies for this region promote a strong identity for the Temecula Valley Wine Country.
Additional policies applying to each District provide for complimentary uses distinct to the delineated
District. These policies are intended to protect against the development of uses that would be
incompatible with existing agricultural and equestrian uses, so as to avoid future land use conflicts.
These policies would also establish the basis for future land use decisions and a framework for the Wine
Country (WC) Zones and Design Guidelines, which have been established to further promote and
preserve the distinctive character of the area. The following policies are applicable to the Temecula
Valley Wine Country Policy Area:
SWAP 1.1 Require boundary changes to the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to be
subject to the Foundation Component Amendment process unless county-
initiated amendment.
SWAP 1.2 Maintain distinct characters of the Winery, Equestrian, and Residential Districts
through implementing zones to promote harmonious coexistence of these uses.
SWAP 1.3 Permit wineries that maintain established on site vineyards on 10 acres or more
provided that at least:
75% of the project site is planted in vineyards;
75% of the grapes utilized in wine production and retail wine sales are grown or
raised within the county; and
The winery facility has a capacity to produce 3,500 gallons of wine annually.
SWAP 1.4 Permit limited commercial uses such as wineries, sampling rooms, and retail wine
sales establishments on a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres to promote
viticulture potential of this region.
SWAP 1.5 Require a density of ten (10) acres minimum for tentative approval of residential
tract and parcel maps after (adoption date) regardless of the underlying land use
designation except in the Wine Country Residential district where a density of
five (5) acres minimum shall apply.

SWAP 1.6 Allow small-scale cottage inns or cottage industries. Encourage agricultural
operations, equestrian activities and vineyard planting with such uses to reflect
the unique character of this Policy Area.
SWAP 1.7 Develop and implement an integrated trails network that carefully considers
equestrian uses, incidental commercial activities and agricultural operations, and
includes, but is not limited to, regional trails, combination trails, bike paths, open
space trails, historic trails, etc.
SWAP 1.8 Pending adoption of an updated Air Quality Element and Climate Action Plan
(CAP), ensure that new development selects greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction
measures from the Option Tables to achieve the Countys GHG emission reduction
thresholds as set forth in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Workbook (workbook).
Alternatively, new developments may utilize other reduction mechanisms to
achieve reduction thresholds as prescribe in the workbook.
Wine Country Winery District
The Wine Country Winery District generally encompasses the area formerly covered by the
Citrus/Vineyard Policy Area and includes additional areas to the east and south. This District primarily
consists of wineries and auxiliary uses, such as wine tasting rooms, hospitality accommodations,
restaurants, and special facilities for weddings or other events. The primary purpose of the Winery
District is to promote the establishment of additional commercial activities that support tourism
associated with viticulture while ensuring long-term viability of the wine industry in the area. The
secondary purpose of the Winery District is to recognize, and allow the expansion of, existing wineries
that are an integral part of the Temecula Valley Wine Country economy. Policies proposed for the
Winery District include:
SWAP 1.9 Encourage new incidental commercial uses that promote tourist related activities
for the wine industry as described in the Wine Country Winery (WC-W) Zone.
SWAP 1.10 Allow the 28 existing wineries shown on Figure 4a to expand as described in the
Wine Country Winery Existing (WC-WE) Zone.
SWAP 1.11 Allow incidental commercial uses such as special occasion facilities, hotels,
resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on lots larger
than 20 acres for WC-W zone and on lots larger than 10 acres for WC-WE zone.
Wine Country Equestrian District
The Wine Country Equestrian District generally encompasses the area formerly covered by the Valle de
los Caballos Policy Area. This District consists primarily of large estate lots with custom home site, large
commercial horse ranches, small independent ranches, stables, and other equestrian service facilities
and amenities including facilities which hold national and international competition events. The
purpose of the Equestrian District is to ensure continuation of and encourage future development of
equestrian uses in the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area to make this community a destination
that would be unique in the nation. Policies specific to the Equestrian District include:


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-11
SWAP 1.12 Encourage equestrian establishments that promote the equestrian lifestyle as
described in the Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) Zone.
SWAP 1.13 Permit incidental commercial uses such as western stores, polo grounds, or horse
racing tracks, petting zoos, event grounds, horse auction facilities, horse show
facilities, animal hospitals, restaurants, delicatessens, and special occasion
facilities in conjunction with equestrian establishments on lots larger than 10
acres to encourage equestrian tourism in this community.
Wine Country Residential District
The Wine Country Residential District is located in the central and northeastern portions of the
Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area. This District consists of both small and large ranch estate
communities, vineyards, and groves. The purpose of the Residential District is to encourage permanent
residential estates in this region to balance the tourism related activities. Policies specific to the
Residential District include:
SWAP 1.14 Encourage residential development that complements the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area as described in the Wine Country Residential (WC-R) Zone.
SWAP 1.15 Encourage residential tracts and parcel maps to cluster development in
conjunction with on-site vineyards or equestrian land provided that the overall
project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. While
the lot sizes in a clustered development may vary, require a minimum lot size of 1
acre, with at least 75% of the project area permanently set aside as vineyards or
equestrian land.
EXISTING WINERIES
Currently, there are currently approximately 42 wineries operating within the Project area (Exhibit 3.0-6,
Existing Wineries). These wineries are categorized as small, medium, or large based on the amenities
offered onsite. Small winery operations typically have vineyards and tasting rooms, whereas medium
wineries have vineyards, tasting rooms, and a combination of one or two additional ancillary uses such
as restaurants, special occasion facilities, or lodging facilities. Large-size wineries typically include
vineyards, tasting rooms, and resort-type uses (such as lodging, special occasion facilities, restaurants,
spas, etc).
PROJECT CIRCULATION
The vehicular circulation system in the Southwest Area Plan is anchored by Interstate 15 and Interstate
215, which run north towards the Cities of Corona and Moreno Valley, respectively. I-215 merges with I-
15, in the City of Temecula. Access to the Project area is obtained via State Route 79 (South) or Rancho
California Road from Interstate 15. The Project area can also be accessed from Winchester Road (State
Route 79 North) where it intersects with Washington Street/Scott Road in French Valley and heads
south changing its name to Buck and then to Borel Road at the northwest corner of the Project area
before becoming Rancho California Road. Access from the northeast can also occur via DePortola Road
and Sage Road, which connect the Project area to the southeastern portion of the City of Hemet.
Rancho California and De Portola Roads are considered Mountain Arterials (110 ROW), generally run
southwest to northeast through the Project area serving the rural areas east of Temecula. Major (118


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-12
right-of-way (ROW)) and Collector (74 ROW) roads branch off from these major roadways in a generally
north-south direction and provide access to local neighborhoods. Due to the rolling topography of the
Project area, the roadway network is less complex than found in more urbanized areas. Details of the
proposed circulation system and roadway/traffic control improvements can be found in Section 4.14 of
this Program EIR, Transportation and Traffic, and on Exhibit 3.0-7, Proposed Circulation Map. The
following is a summary of existing circulation and proposed improvements.

The traffic study prepared for the Project recommends innovative street improvements, which would
minimize/ reduce traffic impacts created by implementing projects allowed pursuant to the Project.
These improvement include, but are not limited to:
Roundabouts Five roundabouts are proposed along Rancho California Road to maintain rural
character of this region while allowing efficient volume capacity and traffic calming on this
critical road. The roundabout at Rancho California Road and Anza Road will be the first of five
roundabouts located at La Serena Way, Calle Contento, Monte De Oro Road and Glenoaks
Road. These roundabouts will allow vehicular, equestrian, bicycle and pedestrian traffic to
interact through the intersection more efficiently and safely while keeping its natural wine
county landscape.
Traffic Signalization/Signs the construction of traffic signals/signs for pedestrians, bikers, and
equestrians are proposed at strategic locations to promote non-motorized circulation in the
Project area;
Re-striping re-striping of intersections/ roadways to accommodate additional traffic,
additional turn lanes, or increase traffic flow;
Number of Lanes several roadways have been downgraded from the Countys Circulation
Element (as shown on Exhibit 3.0-7 and described in Section 6 of the TIA, Appendix I) to
maintain the rural character of the Project area;
Dedication of Lanes dedication of lanes to particular uses, such as right turn only or left turn
only lanes;
Creation of Intersections the creation of new signalized intersections or the creation of
roundabouts to allow for greater vehicle movement within the Project area;
Creation of new roadway linkages the creation of new roadways within the Project area
allowing for vehicular movement in areas where movement was previously unavailable.
With these improvements, the Project area circulation would become more efficient and accommodate
additional traffic anticipated to result from the buildout of the Project area. It should be noted that
many of the anticipated improvements associated with the Project could occur in areas outside of the
Project area (i.e., Offsite Improvements). Such offsite improvements would be critical components of
the overall circulation system and would help ensure that impacts associated with Project-facilitated
development located outside of the Project area would be reduced and minimized. Implementation of
these proposed roadway improvements may require the payment of fees and assessments to the
affected jurisdictions or physical construction of the improvements by or in connection with future
Project area development to ensure that Project-related traffic impacts are reduced/ minimized as
Project area development proceeds over time.
In addition to the construction of physical improvements, the County is also proposing implementation
of Traffic Demand Management strategies to reduce traffic impacts within the Project area and
surrounding areas. The purpose of implementing these strategies would be to reduce the total number


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-13
of vehicles traveling through the Project area, while maintaining or increasing the number of people
visiting the winery related establishments. These strategies may include development of park-and-ride
facilities, bus tour facilities, and/or designated businesses that provide shuttle service to the wineries
within the Project area.
Non-Vehicular Circulation
The County of Riverside contains multi-purpose trails that accommodate hikers, bicyclists, and
equestrian users as an integral part of the County's circulation system. These facilities serve both as a
means of connecting the unique communities and activity centers throughout the County and as a
means of facilitating modes of transportation with no emission of air pollutants or GHGs. Within the
SWAP, a network of trails is planned for the Wine Country region to provide pedestrians, visitors,
equestrians, and bicyclists with alternative modes of travel while providing attractive recreational
opportunities. However, it does not connect all the existing wineries and other tourist destinations,
such as Lake Skinner and Vail Lake, through equestrian and multi-purpose trails system. A Trails Sub-
committee worked with the County Regional Parks and Open Space District and Planning Staff in the
development of a trails network that was more conducive to this regions destination places and users
needs. As a result of their work effort, Figure 8 (Trails and Bikeway System Map) of the SWAP would be
revised through GPA No. 1077. Exhibit 3.0-8, Proposed Trails Network, illustrates the revisions
proposed under GPA No. 1077 to the current SWAP Trails and Bicycle System map (Figure 8).
Circulation Improvement Funding
As this Program EIR is being prepared, the County is weighing the various options to fund the proposed
circulation system improvements needed to address potential impacts to the area circulation system
that would be created by the incremental implementation of development permitted pursuant to the
Project. The County currently imposes development impact fees on projects located within the
Southwest Area Plan. As part of an ongoing process, the County would review the adequacy of these
fees to cover the costs associated with proposed street improvements designed to mitigate the
anticipated traffic. At the time of this writing, the County is investigating the feasibility of such funding
mechanisms as the creation of a Community Facilities District (CFD), the use of a Community Service
Area (CSA) assessment, individual assessments and fee imposed on implementing projects as conditions
of approval.

The majority of the Project area is served by the Rancho California Water District (RCWD), which
provides water service for the cities of Temecula and Murrieta and adjacent unincorporated areas. A
detailed discussion of water supply and water supply infrastructure for the Project area is contained in
Section 4.13 of this Program EIR, Public Services, Recreation and Utilities.
At full buildout, assuming the worst-case development scenario possible pursuant to the Project,
there would be an approximately 38 percent increase in water demand within the Project area as
compared to the demand anticipated pursuant to the current General Plan land use designations (but
not taking into account the Citrus Vineyard and Valle de los Caballos Policy Areas).
RCWDs Water Facilities Master Plan (WFMP) includes master planned facilities (pipelines, pump
stations and reservoirs) to be built throughout the Districts service area. Facilities within the Project

area are shown on Exhibit 3.0-9, WFMP Proposed Facilities. These facilities include the major
infrastructure components anticipated for the Project area. The sizing of the master planned facilities as
well as the distribution pipelines would require analysis when a future implementing project requests
water service to ensure redundancy, hydraulic availability and constructability.
Wastewater (Sewer) System
Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD), which currently provides sewer service to the City of
Temecula, a portion of the City of Murrieta, and unincorporated area in Riverside County within the
EMWDs Temecula Valley service area, would be expected to provide sanitary sewer service and
wastewater treatment to the Project area. In May 2011, EMWD completed the Wine Country
Infrastructure Study (WCIS) to assess the potential projected service needs of existing uses within the
Project area as well as anticipated growth that would be facilitated by the adoption and subsequent
implementation of the Project. Details of the proposed wastewater collection and treatment facilities
that are planned to serve the Project area are provided in Section 4.13 of this Program EIR.
EMWD identified potential alternatives to accommodate Project sewer flows. Descriptions of these
alternatives from the WCIS are provided below.
2
Note that this study is currently being refined by
EMWD. In discussing these alternatives, it is helpful to differentiate the three subareas within the
boundary of the Project area: Lower Wine Country (Lower WC) is the western portion of the Project area
that generally can be connected to the existing Rancho California Road sewer without pumping; Upper
Wine Country (Upper WC) is the northern portion of the Project area that would require pumping to
connect to the existing system; and the Highway 79 area is the southern portion of Wine Country that is
generally tributary to the existing sewer in Highway 79.
Alternative A is considered the base alternative where Lower WC is served by the
Rancho California Road sewer, Upper WC is served by the Nicolas Road sewer, and the
Highway 79 area is served by the Highway 79 sewer. Lower WC is naturally tributary to
Ranch California Road and the Highway 79 area is generally tributary to the Highway 79
sewers. Upper WC will require pumping to route Project wastewater flows to the
existing collection system along Nicolas Road. A network of regional facilities would be
required to provide sewer service to the Project area for Alternative A. These regional
facilities are defined in the EMWD Wine Country Infrastructure Study (WCIS).
Alternative B (the Nicolas Road Alternative) routes both Upper WC and Highway 79 area
flows to the Nicolas Road sewer. The Lower WC area remains served by the Rancho
California Road sewer, as in Alternative A. Alternative B routes flows from the Highway
79 area, through the Upper WC area, and ultimately towards the Nicolas Road sewers. A
lift station located along Highway 79 (South Calle Contento Lift Station) would intercept
the Highway 79 flow and deliver it via a force main to a proposed sewer in Upper WC.
From that point, new sewers and a new lift station along Calle Contento, north of
Rancho California Road, are needed to deliver the combined Highway 79 and Upper WC
flows to the existing Nicolas Road sewer.
Alternative C, proposes that all flows are routed to the Rancho California Road sewer
from the Project area. To accomplish this, Alternative C requires that both the Highway

79 and Upper WC areas be pumped to Lower WC. Alternative C routes flows from the
Highway 79 area, via a lift station and force main along Butterfield Stage Road. Upper
WC is routed to Lower WC, via a lift station and force main along Rancho California
Road, just west of Calle Contento.
EMWD developed flow scenarios for their analysis assuming that at buildout 4.21 million gallons per day
(mgd) of total effluent will be generated by the Project area. Based on the analysis conducted by
EMWD, it was determined that each alternative could accommodate anticipated flows.
Septic Facilities
Numerous properties within the Project area currently utilize septic systems for wastewater disposal. At
this time, the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) is concerned about the use of
onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) within the Project area due to groundwater quality
concerns. In response to this, RWQCB has requested that all commercial implementing projects
proposing OWTS with an average aggregate (total) wastewater flow greater than 1,200 gallons per day
(gpd) must be referred to them for assessment of compliance with water quality standards.
3
Note that
the 1,200 gallon per day standard is under review by RWQCB and may not remain in place throughout
the life of the Project. Residential projects would be limited to the 1,200 gpd average aggregate
wastewater flow regardless of the number of family units. It is possible that future implementing
projects within the Project area Country may include OWTS as the wastewater solution (refer to Section
4.13, Public Services and Utilities for additional details).
Drainage Facilities
As build out of the Project occurs, incremental onsite drainage improvements would be constructed to
control any increased flows above the natural condition and the need for additional major public storm
water management infrastructure improvements is not anticipated. The onsite detention and slow
release of incremental flows would be expected to prevent any increase in downstream erosion or
sediment load. Preservation of existing natural drainages and their associated habitat is anticipated as
implementing projects within the Project area are proposed due to the continued enforcement of
existing federal, State, and regional/local regulations. Refer to Section 4.9, Hydrology & Water Quality
for additional discussion.
3.7 PROJECT PHASING
Build out of the Project area is anticipated to occur in year 2035 and would be driven by market demand
and conditioned by the availability of infrastructure capacity. For planning purposes, a build-out
projection was performed by County staff. Table 3.0-4, Wine Country Buildout Projection, illustrates a
potential development pattern for wineries based on the Project-wide land use capacity pursuant to the
Project. Based on this analysis, a total of 56 new wineries of various sizes would be constructed and
added to the existing 32 wineries operating in the Winery District. Currently there is one existing winery
in the Residential District (Briar Rose Winery) and no wineries in the Equestrian District. To calculate the
number of wineries, a land use study was conducted that:

1. Analyzed existing and proposed winery uses to determine the appropriate proportion of
commercial, agricultural, and manufacturing uses;
2. Inventoried parcel sizes in the area to determine the land use capacity based on acreages; and
3. Examined existing and proposed winery records maintained by the County Planning Department
and Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association (TVWA) to determine the development trend in
the area for forecasting purposes.
As Table 3.0-4, Wine Country Buildout Projection, indicates, the total available land for development of
wineries would accommodated approximately 88 wineries, inclusive of those already in operation as of
the date of the study, with a mix consisting of 21 large, 37 medium, and 30 small-sized operations in the
Winery District and approximately 105, with 21 large, 37 medium and 47 small-sized operation for the
entire Project area. It should be noted that this study was conducted at a time when 32 wineries existed
within the Project area. Since that time 8 additional wineries have been identified and currently operate
within the Project area. At this time it is anticipated that 65 additional wineries will be developed in the
Project area based on the buildout analysis prepared by the County and the number of existing wineries
currently in operation.
Table 3.0-4
Wine Country Buildout Projection

As noted in Table 3.0-4 above, the land capacity for wineries at buildout is approximately 6 and 11 in the
Equestrian and Residential District, respectively. All wineries in these Districts would be small sized
wineries. In addition, at buildout the projected total amounts of dwelling units in the Equestrian and
Residential Districts are 199 and 978, respectively. Within the Winery District 739 units are anticipated.
The amount of residential and non-residential development in any given year would depend on a variety
of factors, including the cyclical nature of the housing and non-residential markets, funding, and
regulatory process.
PROJECT DESIGN FEATURES

(i.e., Sections 4.1 through 4.14 of the EIR) and either avoid, reduce, offset, or otherwise minimize
identified potential adverse impacts of the Project or serve as betterments providing significant
benefit to the community and/or to the physical environment:
Aesthetics/Light and Glare
1. The Project will require that implementing projects adhere to the new development standards
proposed under the Zoning Ordinance Amendment. This will include additional setbacks on
major roadways, consistent allowable maximum height requirements, etc.
2. The Project will require that implementing projects comply with the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area Design Guidelines which provides recommendation and design guidance for
implementing projects and expansion of roadways and trail facilities within the Project area.
3. The Project will require 75% of implementing project on future winery sites be planted with
vineyards on 10 acres or more (revised SWAP Policy 1.3 and 1.4). This minimum planting
requirement will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the rural
agricultural feel of the Project site.
4. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.5) will require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new
residential tract maps and parcel maps except in the Wine Country Residential District. This
large lot size requirement will preserve and enhance the rural feel in the Project area.
5. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.6) will encourage agricultural operations, equestrian
activities and vineyard planting which will reflect the unique character of this Policy Area.
6. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.2) will maintain distinct rural, agricultural and equestrian
characters in the Project area through implementation of the Wine Country Districts and
corresponding zones.
7. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.11) will allow incidental commercial uses such as special
occasion facilities, hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on
lots larger than 20 acres for WC-W zone and on lots larger than 10 acres for WC-WE zone, which
will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the agricultural feel of
the Wine Country Wine District.
8. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.12) will encourage equestrian establishments and permit
incidental commercial uses that compliment existing equestrian establishments on lots larger
than 10 acres. This will promote the equestrian and rural nature of the Wine Country
Equestrian District.
9. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.15) will encourage residential tract and parcel maps with
an overall project density yield not to exceed one dwelling unit per five (5) acres. This large lot
size requirement will preserve and enhance the rural feel in the Wine Country Residential
District.
10. The Circulation Element Amendment is anticipated to reduce average daily trips while
maintaining the rural feel of Wine Country through adherence to the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Design Guidelines. In addition, the Proposed Circulation Map (refer to Exhibit 3.0-7)
shows several roadways would be downgraded from the current Countys Circulation Element,
and several intersections would be improved through the creation of roundabouts which would
enhance or maintain the rural character of the Project area.
11. The Project through the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area Design Guidelines would
recommend that all exterior lighting fixtures be directed downward and properly aimed at
targeted areas, which will minimize light spillover. The Guidelines would also recommend that,
if grading is necessary, contoured slopes or rounded slopes should be manufactured and buffer

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-18
zones should be provided between buildings and vineyards for an easy transition from built
areas to grapevines.
Air Quality
1. The Projects amendment to County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 will require that the minimum lot
size for special occasion facilities be 10 acres in the WC-WE zone, 20 acres in the WC-W zone,
and 100 acres in the WC-E zone and a maximum of 5 guests shall be permitted per gross acre for
these facilities. This would greatly reduce air quality impacts on neighboring properties.
2. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 above which will
require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres and a minimum vineyard planting or
equestrian land requirement of 75%. This will reduce the overall land use density and intensity
of the Project site, resulting in fewer average daily trips which will in turn decrease air quality
impacts in the Project area and surrounding communities.
Agricultural Resources
1. The Project will require 75% of implementing projects on future winery sites be planted with
vineyards on 10 acres or more (revised SWAP Policy 1.3 and 1.4). This minimum planting
requirement will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the rural
agricultural feel of the Project site.
2. Within the Winery District, implementing project which propose incidental commercial uses will
be allowed only on winery sites larger than 20 acres for the WC-W zone and 10 acres for the
WC-WE zone.
3. Within the Equestrian District, implementing project which propose incidental commercial uses
will be allowed only on equestrian establishments on lots larger than 10 acres.
4. The Project will require 75% of implementing projects involving commercial equestrian
establishments be set aside for permanent equestrian lands (proposed Draft Wine Country
Zone, Development Standard F.2).
5. Within the Residential District, implementing projects which propose residential tracts or parcel
maps will be required to cluster development in conjunction with onsite vineyards or equestrian
land such that the overall project density yield does not exceed one dwelling unit per five (5)
acres. At least 75% of the implementing project area will be permanently set aside as vineyards
or equestrian land.
6. At buildout, the Project is anticipated to result in a total of 9,644 acres of land designated for
agriculture-related uses, including equestrian lands.
7. The proposed Wine Country Equestrian (WC-E) and Residential (WC-R) zones would allow as a
permitted use the grazing, keeping or boarding of horses, cattle, sheep, goats, or other farm
stock, in addition to other similar agriculture-promoting uses.
Biological Resources
1. The Project will require 75% of implementing projects on future winery sites be planted with
vineyards on 10 acres or more (revised SWAP Policy 1.3 and 1.4). This minimum planting
requirement will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the rural
agricultural feel of the Project site.
2. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.5) will require a minimum lot size of ten (10) acres for new
residential tract maps and parcel maps except in the Wine Country Residential District. This
large lot size requirement will preserve and enhance the rural feel in the Project area.


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011

3. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.11) will allow incidental commercial uses such as special
occasion facilities, hotels, resorts, restaurants and delicatessens in conjunction with wineries on
lots larger than 20 acres for WC-W zone and on lots larger than 10 acres for WC-WE zone, which
will effectively reduce building mass, increase open space, and promote the agricultural feel of
the Wine Country Winery District.
4. The Project (proposed SWAP Policy 1.12) will encourage equestrian establishments and permit
incidental commercial uses that complement existing equestrian establishments on lots larger
than 10 acres. This will promote the equestrian and rural nature of the Wine Country
Equestrian District.
5. The Project (proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 348.4729) within the Wine Country
Equestrian (WC-E) Zone will allow the following uses related to biological resources:
commercial equestrian establishments;
the grazing, keeping or boarding of horses, cattle, sheep, goats or other farm stock,
excluding hogs;
selective or experimental breeding and raising of horses, cattle, sheep, and goats
petting zoo;
polo grounds or horse show facility;
horse racing track or rodeo arena;
large animal hospital provided that temporary boarding facilities are established for the
purposes of boarding sick or injured animals.
Cultural Resources
1. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 above, which will
require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres. This would make it reasonable to preserve
more open space and reduce the amount of deep excavation and grading within the Project site,
reducing the potential for impacts to cultural resources. This would allow more physical space
to design to avoid and preserve cultural resources.
Geology, Soils, and Seismicity
1. As part of the Wine Country Infrastructure Study (WCIS), EMWD identified potential alternatives
to accommodate Project sewer flows, reducing reliance on onsite septic treatment facilities.
Descriptions of these alternatives are provided above.
2. On-site drainage improvements would be made at the time implementing projects occur to
control any increased flows and ensure erosion of downstream environments do not occur.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
1. The Projects amendment to County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 will require that the minimum lot
size for special occasion facilities be 10 acres in the WC-WE zone, 20 acres in the WC-W zone,
and 100 acres in the WC-E zone and a maximum of 5 guests shall be permitted per gross acre for
these facilities. This would greatly reduce air quality impacts on neighboring properties.
2. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 (refer to Chapter
3.0 Project Description), which will require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres and a
minimum vineyard planting or equestrian land requirement of 75%. This will reduce the overall
land use density and intensity of the Project site, resulting in fewer average daily trips which will
in turn decrease air quality impacts in the Project area and surrounding communities.
3. The Project (revised SWAP Policy 1.8) will require that pending adoption of an updated Air


3.0 Project Description



Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-20
Quality Element and Climate Action Plan (CAP), the County will ensure that new development
selects greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction measures from the Option Tables to achieve the
Countys GHG emission reduction thresholds as set forth in the Greenhouse Gas Reduction
Workbook (workbook). Alternatively, new developments may utilize other reduction
mechanisms to achieve reduction thresholds as prescribe in the workbook.
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
There are no Project Design Features that have been developed with specific respect to hazards and
hazardous materials.
Hydrology and Water Quality
1. The Project includes requirements to limit the intensity and density of implementing projects,
including retention of at least 75% of all winery project acreage as agricultural production, and
requiring minimum lot sizes in the Winery, Winery-Existing, and Equestrian Districts, thereby
reducing impervious surfaces and associated stormwater runoff.
Land Use and Relevant Planning
1. The Plan would establish three distinct Districts within the General Plan Policy Area to maximize
the areas viticulture and related uses, and balance the need to protect existing rural lifestyles in
the area.
2. The Project is itself self mitigating in that it provides additional policies, land use controls, and
design guidelines that are estimated to result in substantially reduced overall land use density
and intensity, as well as better coordinated land use planning that allows all three primary land
uses to function with minimal conflict.
Mineral Resources
1. The Project reduces the overall density of development in the Project area, thereby reducing the
permanent footprint of structures and roads, preserving the option for future mineral
extraction;
2. Within the Winery District, the proposed Project requires a minimum of 75% of land set aside
for agricultural production (viticulture). This land would remain available for potential future
mineral extraction.
Noise
1. The Projects amendment to County Zoning Ordinance No. 348 will require that the minimum lot
size for special occasion facilities be 10 acres in the WC-WE zone, 20 acres in the WC-W zone,
and 100 acres in the WC-E zone and a maximum of 5 guests shall be permitted per gross acre for
these facilities. This would greatly reduce noise impacts on neighboring properties.
2. Refer to Aesthetics/Light and Glare, Project Design Features #3, 4, 7, 8, and 9 above, which will
require large minimum lot sizes from 5 to 20 acres and a minimum vineyard planting or
equestrian land requirement of 75%. This will reduce the overall land use density and intensity
of the Project site, resulting in fewer average daily trips which will in turn decrease ambient
traffic-generated, operational, and site development noise in the Project area and surrounding
communities.
3. The Project will require special occasion facilities that propos indoor events to conduct a Noise
Study prior to Plot Plan/CUP approval. Similarly, special occasion facilities that propose outdoor

Riverside County Planning Department December 1, 2011
Wine Country Community Plan Program EIR No. 524 Page | 3.0-21
events will be required to conduct an Acoustical Analysis prior to Plot Plan/CUP approval.
Public Services, Recreation and Utilities
1. The Project proposes the expansion of roadways and trail facilities within the Project area as
illustrated in Exhibit 3.0-7 and 3.0-8.
2. As part of the Wine Country Infrastructure Study (WCIS), EMWD identified potential alternatives
to accommodate Project sewer flows. Descriptions of these alternatives are provided above.
3. As stated in the Final Integrated Regional Water Management Plan for the Upper Santa
Margarita Watershed Planning Region, RCWD is planning to improve groundwater recharge
facilities and construct up to 18 new groundwater wells to increase water supply and
conjunctive use storage for its service area.
4. RCWDs Water Facilities Master Plan (WFMP) includes master planned facilities (pipelines, pump
stations and reservoirs) to be built throughout the Districts service area. Facilities within the
Project area are shown on Exhibit 3.0-8, WFMP Proposed Facilities.
Traffic and Circulation
1. The Project will require that implementing projects comply with the Temecula Valley Wine
Country Policy Area Design Guidelines which provides recommendation and design guidance for
implementing projects and expansion of roadways and trail facilities within the Project area.
2. The Project will design and develop the vehicular roadway system per Figure 7 (Circulation) of
the SWAP, and in accordance with the functional classifications and standards specified in the
General Plan Circulation Element.
3. The Project will maintain the Countys roadway Level of Service standards as described in the
Level of Service section of the General Plan Circulation Element.
3.8 REQUIRED PERMITS AND APPROVALS
PERMITS/APPROVALS CURRENTLY BEING SOUGHT
The County of Riverside exercises discretionary authority over the Project and is, therefore, the Lead
Agency pursuant to CEQA. Implementation of the Project could require the following permits and
approvals from the County. The following list is not exhaustive and is based on the best data available at
the time of Draft Program EIR was prepared.
Adoption of General Plan Amendment No. 1077 (GPA 1077), which includes revisions, updates,

Adoption of revisions to the Riverside County Zoning Ordinance No. 348.4729 to add four new
Zoning Classifications that would implement the Temecula Valley Wine Country Policy Area:
Wine Country Winery; Wine Country Winery Existing; Wine Country Residential; and Wine
Country Equestrian.
Approval / Amendments to supporting regulatory or advisory documents, such as replacing the
Citrus Vineyard Design Guidelines with the proposed Temecula Valley Wine Country Design
Guidelines.
Current Wine Country Proposals
In addition to the permits/ approvals currently being sought, there are approximately 67 existing
planning cases for projects located within the Project area that are currently under review by the County
Planning Department (refer to Section 4.0, Overview of EIR Methodology). The types of cases being
reviewed include: Conditional Use Permits, General Plan Amendments, Parcel Maps, Plot Plans, and
Tentative Tract Maps. These pending planning cases are in various stages of the process ranging from
the initial submittal of applications to projects that have been tentatively approved and are awaiting
final approval by County staff. Some of these implementing projects may conflict with the Project and
would require special consideration, especially if these conflicts generate impacts to surrounding uses.
Potential Future Permit/Approvals
Future site-specific implementing projects will require subsequent discretionary review and approval by
the County of Riverside. As part of this review it is anticipated that these implementing projects would
require a variety of future permits and approvals. Table 3.0-5, Potential Future Permits and Approvals,
summarizes some of the anticipated requirements for these future implementing projects.
