IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
A. PURPOSE AND INTENT
Generally speaking, theseThese guidelines have been devised as a method for achieving a high quality, cohesive design fabric for the community that will develop within the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan area community.

More specifically, the purpose of these Design Guidelines is:
• ! To provide the CountyCity of RiversideMenifee with the necessary assurance that the Specific Plan area will develop in accordance with the quality and character proposed herein; • ! To provide guidance to developers, builders, engineers, architects, landscape architects and other professionals in order to maintain the desired design quality; • ! To provide guidance to CountyCity staff, the Planning Commission and the Board of SupervisorsCity Council in the review of future development projects in the Specific Plan area; • ! To provide guidance in the formulation of CC&Rs for the use of land in the Specific Plan area;
• ! To provide guidance in the formulation of concise development guidelines for the various planning areas within the Specific Plan boundaries. • ! To provide development guidelines which permit the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan area to develop its own theme and character while allowing it to interface and respond to the character and design fabric of adjacent specific plan areas which may be currently under review or are proposed in the future.

The Design Guidelines provided herein are intended to function as a living document. They are subject to modification over time to allow for response to anticipated conditions, such as changes in taste, community desires and the marketplace, or significant changes within adjacent specific planning areas.

B. GENERAL GUIDELINES
As demonstrated by the conceptualFigure IV-1, Conceptual Landscape Plan, Figure IV-1, careful thought has been given to integrate the structural and aesthetic elements of a balanced, active community. To ensure that this carefully considered plan is implemented in a manner that will bring MENIFEE NORTH a sense of its own character, a central theme has been established, as described below.

1. PROJECT THEME
The underlying design concept and theme for MENIFEE NORTH incorporates a suburban corridor along the highly visible Highway 74, transitioning outward withto adjacent compatible land uses, to a more rural project edge.. The projectdesign provides for unifying elements in each planning area. Streetscape corridors, entry monumentation, and project-wide design guidelines will provide unifying characteristics to strengthen the

overall theme. Additionally, the project will createdesign creates a community identity through control of elements such as architecture, landscaping, color palette of building materials, paving, community theme walls, fencing, lighting, street furniture, signage and graphics.

Landscaping plays a significant role in establishing MENIFEE NORTH's distinctive character. The project'scommunity’s mixed -use concept seeks to develop an association of different land uses by utilizing landscaping, which has been designed to strengthen the overall theme of the development, through the use of specific plant and hardscape materials, while still allowing for specific land use individuality.

2. PROJECT SETTING
a. Preservation of Natural Open Space and Hillsides
A significant amount of natural open space exists east of Briggs Road and south of Highway 74. This area is located in hillside portions of the project and can be seen from several areas of the surrounding valley. A key aspect of the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is the preservation of this hillside area, which accounts for approximately 112 acres.
ba. Development of Improved Recreational Open Space
The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan proposes the integration of recreational trails, community parks, miniparks and school playgrounds to create a master recreational program which provides adequate areas to accommodate active recreational needs of the future residents of the site. cb. Creation of an Integrated Land Use Concept
In designing the land use plan for MENIFEE NORTH, it was intended that several opportunities be created as a means to provide a sense of arrival and to establish the overall theme. A hierarchy was developed which would establish this arrival theme, and which would provide a feeling of transition from varying intensity of land use. This hierarchy consists of Community Entries and Intersections, Project Entries and Intersections, Minor Intersections and Neighborhood Entries.

C. COMMUNITY ELEMENTS
TheFigure IV-1, Conceptual Landscape Plan, Figure IV-1, consists of community elements that reflect continuity throughout the project. Community elements such as entries, intersections, streetscapes, walls, fences and land use transitions will serve as a unifying element. Individually, these elements identify with specific land use, however through the consistent use of similar forms and materials, are designed to be a reinforcement of the overall project theme.

1. PROJECT MONUMENTATION TREATMENTS
Project monumentation is proposed at key entries and intersections which will become major focal points of the project's identification. Monumentation treatments in some situations share the same level of hierarchy, however, must identify and be compatible with varied land uses. For this reason, the forms, size and materials of these treatments have been carefully designed to be compatible with residential as Item Title: 11.1

well as non-residential uses. A hierarchy of monumentation statements, as discussed generally above and detailed below, has been established for MENIFEE NORTH. a. Community Entries and Intersections (Figure IV-2)
Community entriesEntries and Intersections, as illustrated in Figure IV-2, occur at Urban Arterial, Arterial Highway and Major Highway intersections, and are MENIFEE NORTH's "Gateway" to business and residential communities. These entries will serve to visually and physically announce major arrival points within MENIFEE NORTH. The overall sense of entry is created by a harmonious blend of thematic features that include:
• ! A 110-foot corner cutoff monumentation treatment.
• ! A 22-foot turf grass threshold introducing the monumentation treatment. • ! Freestanding community identification cube compatible with community theme walls. • ! A 25-foot radius monumentation wall, compatible with community theme walls, back up identification cube.
• ! Small flowering accent trees, which match the trees at Highway 74, in a formal grouping to provide color and to reinforce the overall streetscape theme. • ! Tall evergreen trees behind flowering accent trees to provide a solid visual backdrop and to reinforce the overall streetscape theme.
• ! Formal hedge row treatment with a foreground of flowering ground cover to define physical limits of the entry statement and to provide screening of parked cars in commercial areas.
• ! Community entries may incorporate community theme walls or fencing at the back of landscape development zone limits, depending on adjacent land use requirements. See Figure IV-2.

Community intersections are intended to occur in conjunction with community entries, where identification is not necessary or compatible with adjacent land uses. Intersections may incorporate community theme walls or fencing depending on adjacent land use requirements. See Figures IV-2. b. Project Entries and Intersections (Figure IV-3)
Project entriesEntries and Intersections, as illustrated in Figure IV-3, are the second level of hierarchy for monumentation, and occur at intersections of Urban Arterial, Arterial Highways and Major Highways. Project entry statements occur in a formal symmetrical configuration on both sides of the street and announce arrival to individual business or residential communities. Thematic features include:
• ! A 95-foot corner cutoff monumentation treatment.
• ! A 22-foot turf grass threshold introducing the monumentation treatment.

• ! A 25-foot radius monumentation wall, identifying the project area by name. Graphics and materials are to be compatible with the overall community theme. • ! Formal grouping of tall evergreen trees to provide continuity with community entries. • ! Formal hedge row treatment, duplicating the appearance of community entries. • ! Project entries may incorporate community theme walls or fencing at the back of landscape development zone limit depending on adjacent land use requirements. See Figure IV3.

Project intersections are to be used in conjunction with project entries where continuity is desired, however project identification is not. These monumentations share the same thematic features with the exception of signage graphics. Intersections may incorporate a community theme wall or fencing, depending on adjacent land use requirements.

In an attempt to To create a high-quality, environmentally sensitive and aesthetically pleasing community, and buffer dissimilar uses to the extent practical, the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan proposes different typesprovides a variety of transition treatments. These treatments will provide environmental designutilize landscape material including vegetation and land use edge treatments which hardscape to facilitate a the community’s mixed use concept. They will also by improving land use compatibility.

The transitions allow for land uses of similar intensity or compatibility to interlink, while allowing providing visual and physical separation between land uses of dissimilar intensity or with limited compatibility to be physically separated or buffered from each other. The land use transitions, interfaces and edge treatments proposed for MENIFEE NORTH are intended to:. ! Provide for the separation and buffering of dissimilar land uses or residential densities by employing community design elements.
! Ensure proper treatment of sensitive areas, such as open space and hillsides. ! Establish design criteria for creating effective linkages between natural and improved open space and residential, industrial, commercial, business park and educational uses.

The recommendedconceptual locations for each of these land use transitions are detailedspecified in the Planning Area Development Standards (Section III.B). ) for each Planning Area. A description of each transition is provided below.
a. On-Site Residential / Adjacent Existing Residential Interface (Figure IV-7) This interface occurs along the northern and eastern portions of the project.

• ! Where residential lots abut the regional trail, a project theme wall shall be constructed at the property line.
j. Community Park/l. Residential (PA 22) / School Shared Use Interface (FiguresFigure IV19 and IV-19A17A) This interface, shown in Figures IV-19 and 19A, occurs where elementary school land uses abut improved open space parks. The main objective of this interface will be to emphasize and facilitate a "Shared Use" concept. A shared use concept implies that there would be times at which it would be advantageous for the school to utilize the park for school activities such as athletics, while it might be advantageous for the community to use certain outdoor facilities within the school site such as ball courts or playground equipment during and/or after school hours. To implement this idea of shared use, the following guidelines should apply to the park/school interface. ! Direct physical barriers such as walls or fences should not be placed between the park and school.

Separation should be implied by using rolling mounds and landscaping to suggest separation while allowing for barrier free access between the school and park. ! Outdoor recreation facilities such as ball fields, ball courts or play ground areas should orient toward boundary line between park and school for easy access from both land uses. ! Methods of securing the school building should not restrict the after hours use of the schools playgrounds, ball fields or play courts.
! Should direct physical separation of the school and park site be desired, open construction fences should be employed to allow for unobstructed views into both the school and park. Vinyl coated chain link fences may be allowed as view fences between schools and parks, but openings or gates should be provided within open construction fences to allow for the potential for shared use.

This interface occurs where the school site in Planning Area 21 is either adjacent to or abutting the residential homes in Planning Area22. Figure IV-17A illustrates the residential to school land use transitions, which reflect the following conditions:
• Condition A: Where the school site in Planning Area 21 abuts a local street, the land use transition incorporates the following components:
 A 56-foot ultimate right-of-way, consisting of a 6-foot-wide curb-adjacent sidewalk and a 4-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right of way on both sides of the street.
 A minimum 5-foot setback outside of the right-of-way extends from the easterly rightof-way to the tract boundary, and includes a maximum 2:1 city maintained landscaped slope and a 2-foot-wide v-ditch concrete drainage channel.  A maximum 6-foot-high block wall may replace the existing chain link fence at the tract boundary of Planning Area 21.
• Condition B: Where homes in Planning Area 22 abut the school site in Planning Area 21, the land use transition incorporates the following components:
 A minimum 5-foot side yard setback.

3. STREETSCAPES
The Conceptual Landscape Plan, Figure IV-1, establishes the streetscape hierarchy and continuity of the MENIFEE NORTH project. The plant palette and landscape treatments for each of the streets serve to emphasize certain key aspects of each corridor. Plant materials will be selected for their ability to express a dynamic design nature which will be dependent upon their particular sizes, shapes, forms, textures and flowering habits. The particular physical characteristics and growth habits of streetscape plant materials will allow them to influence the identities and functions of the street system on which they are placed. a. Highway 74 / Ethanac Road (Figure IV-1519)
State Highway 74 and Ethanac Road (combined) is the most significant corridor of the MENIFEE NORTH project, forming the major entries from the east and the west. The Specific Land Use Plan (Figure III-1) appropriately provides for commercial uses along this established corridor, transitioning outward to more rural land uses which areadjacent compatible with the surrounding area.land uses. A formal statement of distinctive tall evergreen trees, as depicted in Figure IV-1519, not only strengthens the suburban nature of this streetscape but creates a feeling of grand entry to the community of MENIFEE NORTH. Because of the high visibility requirement necessary for successful commercial uses, the plantings along this streetscape are to be simple and uncluttered, allowing views to penetrate commercial uses. Backdrop trees will be evergreen for year-round marking appeal, with flowering accent trees in the foreground and center median. Detailed plantings are reserved for individual uses and monumentations.

Landscape berms with a formal hedge will screen parking lots and support and strengthen this streetscape.
b. Menifee Road and Urban Arterial Highway Streetscapes (Figures- Menifee Road (Figure IV-1620) and Major Highway Streetscape - Antelope Road and 17Briggs Road (Figure IV21) Because Menifee Road and Briggs Road continue through adjacent proposed and existing communities, special consideration has been given to create continuity throughout these projectsareas. For this reason, the Plantanus acerifolia has been adopted as the street tree along Menifee Road and Magnolia grandiflora has been selected as the street along Briggs Road. Architectural themes, wall entries, and setbacks have also been coordinated for a compatible streetscene.
c. Typical Secondary and Industrial RoadsCollector Road Streetscape (Figure IV-1822) To achieve a balance between the projects suburban and rural characteristics, community streetscapes will employ a combination of plant material types and planting arrangements. Generally, the remainder of the streets within the community with a higher traffic volume whether commercial, industrial or residential, should express a more suburban nature as depicted in Figure IV-1822. d.

4. COMMUNITY OPEN SPACE
The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan offers a variety of open space and recreational opportunities as discussed below.
a. Natural Open Space Areas
Substantial amounts of natural open space will be preserved in the southeastern portion of the project area. The open space areas will be developed with a regional trail system traversing the slope at the southeastern portion of the project. Benefits in terms of significant view opportunities and physical buffering serve an important land use function. Residential land uses which are adjacent to the areas will be allowed to take advantage of the visual qualities of the open space areas due to its up-hill relationship to residential properties. Prominent visual continuity with the open space will visually extend the limits of those yards into the open space. No physical improvements or structures, with the exception of the regional trail, would be allowed to encroach into the open space areas. Hillside vegetation, however, may be selectively thinned as required to limit fire hazards. A fuel modification zone as previously described in the Residential/Regional Trail/Open Space Interface Section and has been included in this Specific Plan to address potential fire hazards within open space areas. ba. Community Center/Park/School Shared Use (Figures IV-1926 and IV-19A, and IV-19B27) Where a "Shared Use" concept between school sites and the adjacent community parks can be developed, additional improved open space areas (play fields, game courts, etc.) within the school site can also become an integral component of the projects Community Open Space. The park and school will be developed to the specifications of the CountyCity of RiversideMenifee and the governing school district.

Pursuant to existing requirements, the park will include multipurpose playing fields, multi-purpose courts, restrooms, picnic and parking facilities. The landscaping theme will be consistent with the streetscape and edge interface conditions as previously discussed. A Conceptual site plan for the 5.5- acre community park is shown in Figure IV-19; aA conceptual site plan for the 11.4-acre community center/park is shown in Figure IV-19A26; and a conceptual site plan for the 12.5-acre community park is shown on Figure IV-19B27.
c. Mini-Parks (Figure IV-2028)
The land use plan proposes the development of sixone mini-parks. These parks vary in size from 0.2 to

1.3 acres and arepark. This park is intended to serve as a gathering placesplace for the residential enclaves in which they areit is located. Generally, these parks might be improved to include a picnic area with tables, benches and barbecues, and a turfed area or sand surfaced tot lot or playground. The park would be planted with a combination of Eucalyptus, Pine or Sycamore tree species to provide shade and to define the individual active or passive use areas. A meandering paved, pedestrian pathway or walkway system could be provided for the park and, where appropriate, would be linked to pedestrian walkway systems to adjacent residential neighborhoods.

5. COMMUNITY WALLS AND FENCING
Community walls and fences that can be viewed from the public streets, as illustrated on Figure IV-29, Community Walls and Fence Plan, form an integral parkpart of the community design. They can unify the various land uses and reinforce the design themes established at the project entries. A set of standards Item Title: 11.1

has been developed for community walls and fences as illustrated in Figure IV-2230, Community Walls and Fence Details. , and Figure IV-31, Community Walls and Fence Details (PA 9 and PA 22). The location of each wallswall or fence inis conceptually illustrated in Figure IV-2130, however, the location will vary depending upon final detail design and grading considerations.

In general, solid walls will be located adjacent to residential uses along major highways and secondary roads, where the lot is at approximately the same grade as the street, and as screen elements between incompatible land uses. Concrete, decorative block, or stucco with brick or molded caps are all the accepted materials for these walls. In cases of basin perimeters, where security is a prime consideration, or where side and rear yards have desirable views, in which security is a prime consideration but a solid wall is not necessary to inhibit fire or wildlife, high quality wrought iron or tubular steel-type fencing should be employed. A solid wood fence of the high quality depicted in Figure IV-29, is acceptable for use between residential lots.

Finally, a solid wood fence of the high quality depicted in Figure IV-22, is acceptable for use between residential lots.

3. PLANTING TIME
The MENIFEE NORTH area experiences temperature extremes which can make it difficult for the installation of plant materials during the hot summer months (July - September) and the cold winter months (December - March). Container plants which have not been acclimated to the region may experience heat or frost damage resulting in partial or total loss of foliage, even if these materials will be perfectly suited to the temperature extremes once they are established. If construction schedules permit, the ideal planting time is in the spring or fall months.

E. ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES
The architectural theme of MENIFEE NORTH is one of "oasis" and "comfortable shelter". The desire to reinforce the impression of coolness and a relaxed, country club atmosphere has led to a series of architectural ideas which have been deemed appropriate for dealing with the environment. The weather at MENIFEE NORTH is a result of athe basically arid climate located in Riverside Countythe City of Menifee. The summers are dry and hot, with temperatures frequently reaching 95+ degrees. The high land elevation and dry climate cause a strong temperature swing downward once the sun sets, cooling the land masses and buildings. The winters can offer brisk winds and temperatures, making the warmth of a cozy hearth all that much more desirable. The buildings at MENIFEE NORTH, both residential and non-residential, will have to be flexible enough to cope with both the need to be cool, breezy, and open in the summer, and solid, warm, and stout in the winter.

Instead of transplanting a specific style to MENIFEE NORTH and attempting to define the community theme as a series of clichés, we have chosen instead to define the architecture as "appropriate". The word "appropriate" is further codified by a series of desirable details. The incorporation of these details into the fabric of each individual community will allow these communities to form their own identities and yet let them be recognized as part of the larger community.

The design elements for MENIFEE NORTH that will help form its distinctive character are:
• ! Simple, natural appearing materials.
• ! Soft, warm colors.
• ! Horizontal massing emphasis.
• ! Integration of indoors and outdoors.
• ! Cool, protected entries.
• ! Private patios, protected courtyards.
• ! Roofs with low pitches, wide overhangs.
• ! Windows which are grouped and shaded.
• ! Entry doors with a solid appearance.
• ! Garage doors with setbacks and appropriate solidity. • ! Summer porches and verandas.
• ! Covered, shaded balconies and decks.
• ! Loggias for shade and rain protection.
• ! Chimneys of stone, brick, or stucco to express their mass. • ! Gutters and downspouts incorporated into the design, not added on.

Menifee Mayor and City Council April 3, 2024 Page 1159 of 1410 IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-47
Design elements to avoid at MENIFEE NORTH are:
• ! Dark, moody colors or bright, flashy colors.
• ! Box-like architecture without detail or articulation. • ! High pitched (steep) roofs.
• ! Silver window and door frames.
• ! Monotonous garage door elevations.
• ! Vertical massing.
• ! Flat, unarticulated entries.
• ! Exposed metal chimneys.
• ! Exposed mechanical equipment.

It is the intent of these guidelines to establish a consistent architectural expression in the character of MENIFEE NORTH. The illustrations shown below are conceptual in nature and are only intended to depict concepts, not actual design. Finalized floor plans and elevations will be determined at a later stage of development.

1. MATERIALS
The choice of materials is not highly limited at MENIFEE NORTH. Their use in appropriate locations and in realistic ways, however, is paramount. The need for all buildings to appear as through they spring from the earth is a demanding task for freshly built, modern structures. Judicious use and mixtures of materials will help the designer succeed in this effort. Because of the rural/desert nature of the project, shiny or flashing materials may be inappropriate. Also, the use of numerous different materials on one structure will tend to clutter the design. It is intended that the buildings at MENIFEE NORTH reflect a design idea that uses the materials as a way to express craftsmanship rather than a celebration of the material itself. Simplicity (not to be confused with plainness) will present very well, if the materials are used appropriately and consistently.

2. COLOR PALETTE
Colors at MENIFEE NORTH should be "calm" to reinforce the architectural theme of "oasis". Hot, vibrant colors with large amounts of chroma should be avoided, especially when considering large surfaces.

The main body of the building should be colored soft enough to appear cool, but not dark and dreary or muddy. Pastels can be used, if they are subtle. Trim color should contrast with the body color enough to provide an accent.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-50

3. BUILDING MASSING
The emphasis at MENIFEE NORTH, in the context of building massing, is on the horizontal line. Building elements which accentuate the horizontal are encouraged, including eave lines, balconies and rails, fenestration patterns, walls and trim lines.

When planning two-story structures, setbacks of enough dimension between one story and that immediately below it are encouraged to disassociate the two vertical planes. Use of roof elements, dressage, and other overhead structures to provide a horizontal break in vertical planes are also encouraged. On small lots, where the narrow frontage may prevent steps on the sides of the units, a front to back break in elevation, as well as varied setbacks along the street, are encouraged.

On commercial projects, loggias, stairways, balconies and walkways are encouraged to provide visual interest as well as to provide pedestrian spaces. Creating elevations that do not vary in plan should be avoided. The transitions from parking areas to the commercial buildings should be logical and shaded if at all possible.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-51

4. ENTRIES
The perception a person receives visually and emotionally from a house or building can set the whole tone for a visit to the space beyond. The creation of a feeling of protection, invitation, and openness all at the same time will allow the appropriate balance to exist between privacy and accessibility. Entries should be protected from the direct impact of the elements, but should not be so squeezed or constricted as to feel uninviting or claustrophobic.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-52

5. SCREENING
The definition between private and public spaces at MENIFEE NORTH will occur in a variety of ways. The use of setbacks, garden walls, fences, landscaping and even material changes to define the difference is highly encouraged.

Private courtyards will enhance the feeling of being able to move out of the house or building without moving completely into the public domain. They also can be used to provide a sheltered outdoor space to enjoy some quiet time.

Walls and fences of private yards which are visible to the street or public spaces shall be consistent with the overall theme of the project in which they appear. They also must be architecturally integrated with the community of MENIFEE NORTH as a whole. Plastered masonry walls, with or without other elements such as steel tubing, shall align with the design of the project walls discussed in the Landscape Guidelines section of this Specific Plan.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-53

6. ROOFS
The roof form at MENIFEE NORTH is seen as one of the primary form-giving elements. It can be used to help emphasize the horizontal lines of a building, as well as provide shelter from the elements. Because the average annual rainfall is not the major concern of all the elements, the roofs should be low and wide, with slopes predominantly 5:12 or less. Some accent roof areas may be allowed to exceed this slope if they do not represent a large percentage of the total roof area. The overhangs should be a minimum of two feet, so that the shadows they create can be used to shade the walls and windows below them.

The visible roofs of all buildings should appear substantial, as though there is a definite layer between the elements and the protected spaces below. Roofing materials can be either flat clay/concrete tiles or barrel tiles. The tiles will provide a mass which will help slow down heat absorption by the building.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-54

7. WINDOWS
Windows are another basic form-giver to the buildings of MENIFEE NORTH. While the primary purpose of windows is to provide light and ventilation, all windows should be protected from the negative impact of the elements, especially the sun. Windows should appear in groups or bands whenever possible, and the detailing of the windows should be consistent around the entire building. Metal windows should have some color to them other than mill finish or natural silver/gray. Views, whether short range, private or public should be exploited.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-55

8. DOORS
Doors in the exterior walls of a building at MENIFEE NORTH should appear to fit with the style of the other detailing. Regardless of their composition, the coloring and detailing should be consistent. Metal skinned doors should be finished so they do not appear "shiny", unless all doors appear that way. All doors should be considered like windows, and the door's detailing should be reflective of the window detailing. Like windows, doors should be protected from the elements by overhangs, eaves or recesses.

9. GARAGE DOORS
Because the garage on most houses presents a major face to the public, its appearance is very important.

The door should be wood, and the detailing should be complimentary to the other doors and detailing.

Any opportunity to change or vary the direction the door faces in relation to a street should be exploited.

The doors should not be set flush with the wall they appear in, but rather should be recessed or shaded by an eave.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-56

10. PORCHES
A porch, even a small one, can tremendously enhance the feeling of protection from the elements if it is covered or shaded. At MENIFEE NORTH, it is desired to have available to all persons some ability to move out of the building but not be out from under a protective covering. Whether it is a place to sit and read, or to set a potted plant, a porch will enhance the feeling of an "oasis".

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-57

11. BALCONIES
In second floor conditions, it may be desirable to allow someone to walk outside on a balcony, either to gain a view or to just relax in a secluded area. It is encouraged that the balcony be shaded, protected and in harmony with the entire building design. Details, such as handrails, windows, doors, planters and roofing should enhance and coordinate with the overall design.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-58

12. LOGGIAS
The act of walking between two structures during harsh weather conditions can be enhanced dramatically by the use of a loggia. The covered walkway will reinforce the idea of "shelter" or "oasis", especially if used where a large number of people will congregate. A loggia can be used as a transition between privately owned structures (garage to house for example) or in buildings for public use such as commercial buildings, office buildings and industrial buildings.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-59

13. TOWERS
MENIFEE NORTH is attempting, even in the higher density parcels, to remain horizontal in overall impression. Towers, vertical billboards, tall signs and/or clock towers are not in keeping with that spirit, except when used in conjunction with landmarks in the community, such as the recreation centers, commercial centers, business parks and industrial parks.

14. CHIMNEYS
The chimney, as the outward symbol of the hearth, should be the anchor for the house visually. To do so, it should appear massive. Indigenous materials are encouraged for use as veneers. Rock, adobe, brick or stone will emphasize the connection to the land, as well as supplying the necessary heft.

Plastered boxes containing metal flues are a minimum requirement and they must have detailing applied to enhance them. (While not specifically encouraged, wood clad chimneys may be acceptable if they are coordinated with other architectural elements of the dwelling. They would be reviewed on a case by case basis.) Exposed metal flues or wood trimmed flues are not appropriate.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-60

15. EXTERIOR STAIRS AND STEPS
Changes in elevation at MENIFEE NORTH should be handled as subtly as possible. Stairs and ramps should have changes in direction and frequent breaks in rise to soften the impression of overall rise. Steps cast on grade are encouraged to have kneewalls to allow the earth to berm against them. Where appropriate, and if possible, it is recommended that stairs have coverings/roofs to make them appear as part of the building as opposed to an attachment.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-61

16. GUTTERS AND DOWNSPOUTS
It is encouraged that roofs, sloped or "flat", be guttered to collect rainwater at MENIFEE NORTH. Where gutters are not used, roof overhangs should be of adequate dimension to minimize dripping of rainwater on the exterior of the dwelling. Rainwater should not fall onto paved areas where people will be walking.

17. SKYLIGHTS AND CLERESTORIES
Skylights and clerestories are encouraged to be used at MENIFEE NORTH. They can provide additional light and ventilation for the occupants, as well as add visual interest to the exteriors. Clerestories are preferred over skylights because they can be designed to control heat gain more readily. Skylights, if used, should be as flat as possible in profile, with clear or gray glazing. If they occur on flat roof sections, it is encouraged they be screened from view from public streets.

18. FLASHING AND VENTS
The roof surfaces at MENIFEE NORTH are important to the overall design character and should be left as uncluttered as possible. All flashing and vent stacks must be colored to match the surrounding surfaces.

Vents should be placed in the roofs where they will provide the least intrusion of the roofscape.

19. MAILBOXES
For single family dwellings, mailboxes will be designed and supplied by the U.S. Postal Service. Further architectural detailing will not be required.

Installation of cast iron, cast aluminum, brick, or, slumpstone-encased curbside mailboxes are encouraged. Each mailbox installation shall conform to current United States Postal Service standards.

20. UTILITY METERS
At MENIFEE NORTH, gas and electric meters should be located so that they are hidden from direct view from the street. They may be placed in "rooms" behind exterior access doors or screening, or they may be hidden by location away from main sight lines.

21. MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT
All mechanical equipment, roof mounted or ground mounted, will be screened by architectural elements as part of the design at MENIFEE NORTH. Sound attenuation of mechanical noise also will be necessary, both from neighbors and from within the structure being served by the mechanical equipment. Solar panels of any type must be incorporated into the design of the building on which they are placed.

Coloring, materials, and bulk must be coordinated with the overall theme of the MENIFEE NORTH community.

22. COMMERCIAL, BUSINESS PARK AND INDUSTRIAL CRITERIA
The non-residential buildings of MENIFEE NORTH are expected to blend with the overall community in regard to the design guidelines discussed thus far. However, because of their size and varied uses, they should appear distinct from the houses.

MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 3NO. 5 IV-62
When considering massing, the buildings should be stepped, both horizontally and vertically, when possible. Trim lines, detailing and color accents should complement the horizontal nature of the project in general.

The use of loggias, balconies, stairways and other details outlined elsewhere in this document, are encouraged to provide variety in the building massing. Towers or other vertical elements can be used as a focal point.

Mechanical equipment must be screened, and the screening or building parapets used to do this must be an integral design with the main building mass. This screening will be required wherever the mechanical equipment could be seen from adjacent roads, highways, residential areas, and/or adjacent pedestrian areas. Flat roofs are acceptable, but pitched roofs for all or a portion of the buildings are also acceptable.

Signage and lighting must be consistently integrated with the building facade, and should be of uniform shape and materials. Retail commercial building exterior design should anticipate signage location, size and coloration so the eventual tenants can provide adequately sized as well as integrated signage. Multitenant projects should develop comprehensive sign programs.

There should be adequate separation between parking and the buildings to allow pedestrian flow to be comfortable. Sheltered/shaded pedestrian paths and entries are encouraged. Loading zones should avoid visual exposure to adjacent streets and residential zones. Walls and landscaping can be used to facilitate this screening.

Parking areas should be landscaped, with shading a major consideration. See the landscape guidelines section of this Specific Plan for further requirements. Where it is possible, it is encouraged that service and delivery circulation be separated from the public parking areas.

Reflective glass skins or non-residential buildings should not be used where it will adversely impact the adjacent buildings, especially if the adjacent buildings are residential. In general, large amounts of reflective glass are not in keeping with the overall tone the community is attempting to maintain.

WHEREAS, all other legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Menifee resolves as follows:

Section 1: The City of Menifee’s City Council hereby makes the following findings for TTM No. 38132 (PLN21-0274) in accordance with Title 7, Article 2, Chapter

7.20.090 “Findings for Approval for Tentative Maps” of the City of Menifee Subdivision Code:

Finding 1 - The proposed subdivision and the design and improvements of the subdivision is consistent with the Development Code, General Plan, any applicable specific plan, and the Menifee Municipal Code.

The Project site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of SP 260.

Specifically, TTM No. 38132 is located in PA 9 of SP 260 which, under a concurrent amendment, is proposed to establish density of 5.8 dwelling units per acre, establish a minimum lot size to 4,300 square feet, update the acreage to 29.4 acres, and allow up to 170 dwelling units. The intent of the designation established in SP 260 is residential development at 5.8 dwelling units per acre density. TTM No. 38132 is proposed at a density of 5.7 dwelling units per acre which is consistent with the SP 260 Land Use designations and with the surrounding community.

The Project is consistent with the following City of Menifee General Plan policy:
• Policy LU-4.1: Ensure that land use decisions within the March Air Reserve Base and Perris Valley Airport areas of influence are consistent with applicable Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans. Comply with State law regarding projects subject to review by the Riverside County Airport Land Use Commission.

TTM No. 38132 was routed for review to the Riverside County Airport Land Use Commission and has been conditioned per the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan. Various conditions include building heights, basin drainage timeframes, directional/hooded lighting and a notice (and recorded as deed notice) to all prospective buyers and tenants of any future residents that their property is located in an Airport Land Use Compatibility Zone.
• Policy LU-1.6 Coordinate land use, infrastructure, and transportation planning and analysis with regional, county, and other local agencies to further regional and subregional goals for jobs-housing balance.

TTM No. 38132 is conditioned to improve Palomar Road and Junipero Road along the Project frontage which will increase the accessibility for residents within the Project to the future community park in PA 10 of SP 260 directly to the east.

Item Title: 11.1
Menifee North Specific Plan Amendment No. 5, Tentative Tract Map No. 38132, and Tentative Tract Map No. 38133 Item Page Number: 751
Menifee Mayor and City Council April 3, 2024 Page 1236 of 1410 Menifee N SPA - TTM No. 38132
April 3, 2024

• Policy C-1.1 Require roadways to: Comply with federal, state and local design and safety standards.

TTM No. 38132 proposes improvements for roadways, including Palomar Road, Junipero Road, and internal tract streets, which are consistent with the City’s General Plan and the City’s Public Works and Engineering Department Standard Details.
• Policy CD-1.3 Strengthen the identity of individual
neighborhoods/communities with entry monuments, flags, street signs, and/or special tree streets, landscaping, and lighting.

TTM No. 38132 will include enhanced landscaping at the entries off Palomar Road and Junipero Road. The conceptual landscape plan includes the entire tract to provide a consistent and unique landscape plan for the entire community. Monument signage is proposed for both entries into the community along with the inclusion of a tot lot near the center of the Project.

Finding 2 - Consistency with the Zoning Code. The Tentative Tract Map is consistent with the zone designation map.

TTM No. 38132 is zoned SP 260, PA 9 and proposes to subdivide the Project area into 169 single-family lots. Additional lots are proposed for tot lots, water quality basins, and internal roads. The minimum lot size required is 4,300 square feet. PA 9 of SP 260 was originally approved for 7,200 square foot lots (minimum), 106 dwelling units at 3.5 dwelling units per acre.

Concurrent with this application and under a separate resolution, the Planning Commission considered Specific Plan Amendment No. 5 to modify PA 9 to allow for establish a minimum lot size of 4,300 square feet (from 7,200 square feet), establish a density of 5.8 dwelling units per acre (from

3.5), establish development standards consistent with the proposed density and unit count, and establish a maximum of 170 allowed dwelling units (from 106 to 170). TTM No. 38132 is being concurrently processed with TTM No. 38133 which proposes to reduce the number of allowed units by 64. Due to Senate Bill (SB) 330, the increase in units to PA 9 and TTM 31832 is required to be consistent with SB330.

Staff has reviewed and conditioned the subdivision for consistency with the Subdivision Ordinance and amended requirements for lot sizes and dimensions, streets, domestic water, fire protection, sewage disposal, and other applicable requirements. The subdivision is consistent with the City of Menifee Development Code and the Subdivision Ordinance requirements of SP-260, PA 9 and the City of Menifee Municipal Code.

Finding 3 - The tentative map does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Conservation Act of 1965, or the land is subject to a Land Conservation Act contract but the resulting parcels following division of the land will be of an adequate size to sustain their agricultural use:

Item Title: 11.1
Menifee North Specific Plan Amendment No. 5, Tentative Tract Map No. 38132, and Tentative Tract Map No. 38133 Item Page Number: 752
Menifee Mayor and City Council April 3, 2024 Page 1237 of 1410 Menifee N SPA - TTM No. 38132
April 3, 2024

The proposed The TTM No. 38132 project site is not under a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965.

Finding 4 - The site is physically suitable for the type of development and the proposed land use of the development.

TTM No. 38132 is bounded by an existing tract map to the west, Rural Residential (one acre minimum) lots to the north, vacant land (future community park, PA 10 of SP 260) to the east, and vacant land to the south (zoned High Density Residential, PA 11 of SP 260). With the potential for inconsistent land use to the north, specifically the existing Rural Residential lots to the north, TTM No. 38132 has proposed larger lots, up to 11,801 square feet, along the boundary acting as a buffer between the two land uses. Therefore, the site is considered physically suitable for the type of development and the proposed land use of the site.

TTM No. 38132 has been reviewed by the different Departments to ensure compliance with applicable regulations, including, but not limited to City of Menifee Community Development Department, Engineering and Public Works Department, and Office of the Fire Marshal. These Departments have also provided conditions of approval as appropriate to ensure compliance with applicable regulations.

Finding 5 - The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements, with conditions of approval, are either:

1. Not likely to cause significant environmental damage or substantially and avoidable injure fish or wildlife of their habitat; or

2. Subject to an environmental impact report under which a finding has been made pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21081(a)(3) that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the environmental impact report.

TTM No. 38132 will not result in conditions detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare as designed and conditioned. An Addendum to SP 260 FEIR was prepared for TTM No. 38132, and no significant impacts were identified with incorporation of standard conditions of approval and mitigation measures (as listed in the FEIR Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program). TTM No. 38132 has been reviewed and conditioned by the City of Menifee Community Development Department, Engineering Department, and Office of the Fire Marshal to ensure that it will not create conditions materially detrimental to the surrounding uses.

Consistency with Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) The City of Menifee has two active conservation plans within the City’s boundary, the Western Riverside County MSHCP, and the Stephen’s Kangaroo Rat Habitat Conservation Plan (SKR-HCP). TTM No. 38132 is within the jurisdiction of the SKR-HCP and the Western Riverside County MSHCP. The Project site is located inside the Stephen’s Kangaroo Rat Item Title: 11.1

(SKR) (Dipodomys stephensi) Fee Area. The proposed Project is located within the boundaries of the Western Riverside County MSHCP; however, the Project is not located within a Criteria Cell or Cell Group. The Project will be subject to the payment of fees consistent with Menifee Municipal Code Chapter 17.03 as adopted by the City of Menifee. Therefore, TTM No. 38132 will not conflict with the provisions of the adopted MSHCP, Natural Conservation Community Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state conservation plan and the impact is considered less than significant.

Finding 6 - The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems.

The public health, safety and general welfare are protected through project design, conditions of approval, and mitigation measures. TTM No. 38132 is surrounded by existing single-family residences to the north and west along with vacant residential land to the south, and vacant land to the east (future community park).

TTM No. 38132 has been reviewed and conditioned by the City of Menifee Community Development, Engineering, and Police Departments, and Office of the Fire Marshal, to ensure that it will not create conditions materially detrimental to the surrounding uses, nor will be detrimental to the public health, safety and general welfare or incompatible with other properties or land uses in the Project vicinity.

Finding 7 - The design of the subdivision provides for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible.

The Project will be designed with passive or natural heating opportunities.

The Project will be consistent with the Development Code and the requirements of California Code of Regulations of Title 24, including requirements for energy efficiency, thermal insulation, and solar panels.

Finding 8 - The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, or the design of the alternate easements which are substantially equivalent to those previously acquired by the public will be provided.

The subdivision makes provisions for all existing and future easements for all utilities and public use purposes. Therefore, no conflicts with easements will occur with the design of the subdivision.

Finding 9 - The subdivision is consistent with the City’s parkland dedication requirements (per the Quimby Act) as applicable, in accordance with Chapter 7.75 (Parkland Dedication and fees).

TTM No. 38132 will fulfill Quimby obligations though the payment of fees as determined by the Community Services Department. Fees are required for consistency with the Quimby Act. Additionally, SP 260 was approved with Item Title: 11.1

the requirements for a Community Park in PA 10 directly to the east. While various tract maps have been approved and built within the Specific Plan and the removal of the areas of the Specific Plan outside of City boundaries, the City has conditioned TTM No. 38132 to enter into a Park Development Agreement prior to recordation of the final map to ensure timely construction and completion of the community park.

NOW, THEREFORE, The City Council of the City of Menifee makes the following findings:

1. That the Findings set out above are true and correct.

vii. The City of Menifee must be consulted on the
repository/museum to receive the fossil material prior to being curated.
viii. A qualified paleontologist shall prepare a report of findings made during all site grading activity with an appended
itemized list of fossil specimens recovered during grading (if any). This report shall be submitted to the Planning Division for review and approval prior to building final inspection as described elsewhere in these conditions.
ix. All reports shall be signed by the project paleontologist and all other professionals responsible for the report's content (e.g. Professional Geologist, Professional Engineer, etc.), as appropriate. Two wet-signed original copies of the report shall be submitted directly to the Planning Division along with a copy of this condition, deposit-based fee and the grading plan for appropriate case processing and tracking.

38. Pre-Grading Meeting. The qualified archaeologist shall attend the pregrading meeting with the contractors to explain and coordinate the requirements of the monitoring program, including a cultural sensitivity training component.

39. Burrowing Owl Pre-Construction Survey. The Project Developer shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a pre-construction survey for Burrowing Owl within 30 days prior to the start of construction. The results of the single one-day survey would be submitted to the City prior to obtaining a grading permit. If Burrowing Owl are not detected during the pre-construction survey, no further mitigation is required. If Burrowing Owl are detected during the pre-construction survey, the Project applicant and a qualified consulting biologist will be required to prepare and submit for approval a Burrowing Owl relocation program.

40. Nesting Bird Pre-Construction Survey. Prior to vegetation clearance, the Project applicant shall retain a qualified biologist to conduct a preconstruction nesting bird survey in accordance with the following:
a. The final walkover survey shall be conducted no more than three (3) days prior to the initiation of clearance/construction work; b. If pre-construction surveys indicate that bird nests are not present or are inactive, or if potential habitat is unoccupied, no further mitigation is required;
c. If active nesting birds are found during the surveys, a speciesspecific no-disturbance buffer zone shall be established by a Item Title: 11.1

qualified biologist around active nests until a qualified biologist determines that all young have fledged (i.e., no longer reliant upon the nest).
d. It is recommended that close coordination between the developer of the site, the City of Menifee, the project engineer, and the consulting qualified biologist to consider vegetation clearance outside of the normal bird nesting season (usually February 1 – August 31) to avoid impacts to nesting birds which would potentially violate the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act. It should be noted that bird nesting season is increasingly less-definitive for some year-round resident species such as hummingbirds and raptors. Further, grounddwelling birds such as burrowing owls, can be affected nearly any time of the year if present. It is therefore advisable to conduct a preconstruction bird survey no matter the time of year. e. Removal of vegetation necessitates installation of appropriate Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan “SWPPP” measures, particularly if development subsequent to grading is not undertaken immediately, therefore careful timing of the project schedule and implementation measures is necessary to avoid water quality impacts.
