AMENDMENT NO. 5 TO MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260

SUMMARY OF CHANGES

Proposed Amendment No. 5 (SP 260-A5), modifies the Land Use Plan, along with text and graphics, of the approved Menifee North Specific Plan No. 260, Amendment Nos. 3 and 4, to reflect modifications to Planning Areas 9, 22 and 23A. SP260 -A5 also incorporate s modifications in Amendment No. 3, which were not reflected in a final comprehensive document when approved in 2020. Refer to Figure I -3, Approved vs. Proposed Areas of Change, which depicts the proposed SP 260-A5 modifications to the Land Use Plan.

This SP 260 -A5 decreases the residential acreage subtotal by 4.6 acres (from 202.6 acres to 198.0 acres), increases the acreage of Medium High Density (MHDR) Residential Land Use within the Specific Plan by 44.6 acres (from 26.5 to 71.1 acres), reduces the acreage of Medium Density Residential (MDR) Land Use by 30.4 acres (from 116 acres to 85.6 acres), reduces the acreage of High Density Residential (HDR) Land Use by 18.1 acres (from 30 acres to 11.9 acres), and reduces the acreage of Very High Density Res idential (VHDR) Land Use by 0.7 acres (from 30.1 acres to 29.4 acres).

II. INTRODUCTION

A. PROJECT LOCATION AND SETTING

The MENIFEE NORTH community consists of a combination of undeveloped land, existing scattered residential and institutional land uses, surrounded by either fragmented residential, commercial, or limited forms of professional office land uses, as noted on the Regional Map (Figure I-1) and illustrated on the Vicinity Map (Figure I-2). When fully developed, the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan will provide a combination of land uses including residential, commercial, industrial, business park, recreation, institutional uses.

Amendment No. 5 to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan, (SP 260-A5) creates a comprehensive set of plans, regulations, conditions , and programs for guiding the systematic development of this community. All standards included within Amendment No. 5 are reflective of City of Menifee requirements. Amendments to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan and implementing projects are processed, reviewed, and considered by the City of Menifee in accordance with the City’s General Plan and Ordinances.

SP 260-A5 creates a community which offers a unique living and working environment, comprised of a range of residential densities and housing types, schools, commercial and industrial uses, along with park and open space amenities consistent with the City of Menifee’s vision for the city. The variety of housing types provide housing opportunities for residents in a variety of economic circumstances and lifestyle preferences, creating a vibrant community consisting of individual neighborhoods and public spaces.

SPECIFIC PLAN HISTORY

In 1994, the County of Riverside Board of Supervisors approved the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan No. 260 and certified its ’ Environmental Impact Report (EIR No. 329). The adopted Specific Plan provided for the development of 2,390 residential units on 1,635.3 acres between the communities of Homeland and Romoland in Southwestern Riverside County. EIR No. 329 was intended to serve as the project -wide Master Environmental Document for the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan and all subsequent development projects undertaken pursuant to and within the Specific Plan boundaries. EIR No. 329 analyzed 2,654 dwelling units, although the project was approved for only 2,309 units.

In 2004, Amendment No. 1 was approved by the County of Riverside, which increased the number of residential units to 2,602 and deleted Planning Area 1, which was originally designated for 18 acres of Commercial/Business Park use, to reflect its annexation into the City of Perris. Planning Area 32 was also re-designated from Medium Density Residential to Medium High Density Residential.

In 2008, Amendment No. 2 and Environmental Assessment No. 40275 was approved by the County of Riverside. Amendment No. 2 reduced the Specific Plan acreage by approximately 30 acres (from 1,635.3 acres to 1,604.6 acres), increased the number of residential units by 213 units (from 2,602 to 2,815), modified the Land Use Designations and unit counts in Planning Areas 7, 8, 10, 20, 23, and 48, and modified the Circulation Plan to reflect the Circulation Element of the Riverside County General Plan adopted in 2003. The City of Menifee was also incorporated in 2008 and establishment II. INTRODUCTION

of the City’s boundary at Briggs Road resulted in the approximately 775 -acre portion of the adopted Specific Plan, west of Briggs Road, remaining within the City’s jurisdiction.

In January 2016, Substantial Conformance No. 1 to Amendment No. 2 (SP260A2-SC1) was approved by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors to modify the Specific Plan boundary and removed all areas west of Briggs Road from the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan. The revised limits of the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan were reduced to approximately 829.2 acres east of Briggs Road, west of Juniper Flats Road, south of Alicante Drive, and north of Matthews Road, continuing to allow for a wide range of land uses including 2, 025 residential units. The balance of 816.2 acres and 889 residential dwelling units resided within the City of Menifee.

On March 17, 2020, Substantial Conformance No. 2 to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan (SP260A2-SC2) was adopted to modify Planning Areas 24, 25, 26 and 28 boundaries, acreages, and residential dwelling unit counts to reflect approved Tentative Tract Map No. 29322 and proposed Tentative Tract Map No. 37533, which were processed concurrently. SP260A2 -SC2 maintained the approved maximum of 2,025 residential units permitted on 829.2 acres, while modifying the Specific Plan text a nd graphics to: reduce the minimu m lot sizes within Planning Area 25 from 6,000 s.f. to 3,500 s.f.; re -allocate 22 dwelling units from Planning Areas 26 and 28 (TTM 29322) to Planning Areas 24 and 25 (10 dwelling units and 12 dwelling units respectively) to be consistent with T TM 37533; revise the locations of the water quality basins and mini -park sites within Planning Areas 24, 25, 26, and 28; and reduce the overall acreage of major roads within the overall SP area from 77.1 acres to 74.8 acres.SP260A2-SC2 also included a technical correction for the land use designations of Planning Areas 26 and 28, from “Medium -High Density Residential” to “Medium Density Residential”, to reflect the previously approved TM 29322.

On July 1, 2020, Amendment No. 3 to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan and its accompanying EIR (SCH #2019029123) was adopted by the City of Menifee. Amendment No. 3 modified Planning Areas 11, 12, 13, and 14 and formally removed those portions of the Specific Plan outside the City boundaries from the document, however a final comprehensive document reflecting the approved modifications was not created.

In 2022, Amendment No. 4 to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan and its accompanying EIR (SCH #2021060247) was approved to increase the Specific Plan acreage from 898.8 acres to 905.2 acres. By modifying the configuration of Planning Area 2 and increasing the acreage of Planning Area 2 from 138.8 acres to 145.2 acres to reflect TTM 38156.

B. SPECIFIC PLAN FORMAT

Amendment No. 5 to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan has been prepared pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code Section 65450, which grants local government agencies the authority to prepare specific plans of development for any area covered by a General Plan for the purpose of establishing systematic methods of implementation of the agency’s General Plan.

Section 65450 through 65454 of the California Government Code grants local government agencies the authority to prepare specific plans of development for any area covered by a General Plan, for the purpose of establishing systematic methods of implementation of the agency's General Plan. A Specific Plan, as the name implies, is specific in nature as compared to a General Plan. It is designed to address II. INTRODUCTION
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

II- 3
site specific issues such as building setbacks and visual appearance, as well as project -wide concerns such as circulation and provisions for utilities. While a General Plan examines an entire City, a Specific Plan will concentrate on the individual develo pment issues of a particular project. Amendment No. 5 to the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan has been created to provide a comprehensive development plan for the 821.0-acre site that is consistent with the recommendations and requirements set forth by Section 9.100 of the City of Menifee Development Code.

C. PROJECT SUMMARY

MENIFEE NORTH, is located on approximately 821.0 acres along Highway 74, between Trumble Road and Briggs Road, in the City of Menifee. Amendment No. 5 addresses modifications to Planning Area 9 and Planning Area 22. Planning Area 9 is located in the western portion of the Specific Plan, between Palomar Road and Junipero Road . Planning Area 22, is located in the eastern portion of the Specific Plan, between Malone Avenue and Briggs Road. Amendment No. 5 introduces residential lot sizes into these Planning Areas which create compact neighborhoods which were not previously available within the community, to provide more housing choices for residents of the City of Menifee.

In response to changing market conditions in the project area, this fifth amendment to Specific Plan 260, MENIFEE NORTH, is proposed to incorporate the following changes, which are summarized in Section 1, Summary of Changes, and reflected in Table II-1, Land Use Summary:

2. CIRCULATION PLAN

a. Circulation Plan Description

The primary goal of the Circulation Plan is to provide direct and convenient access to individual residential neighborhoods, schools, recreation areas, and commercial, business park and industrial facilities through a safe and efficient hierarchy of roadways. Non-vehicular circulation will be promoted through the provision of bicycle lanes and sidewalks.

As illustrated in the Conceptual Circulation Plan (Figure III -2), the Specific Plan requires the construction of approximately 89.3 acres of roads. Amendment No. 4 5 has modified the Circulation Plan in conformance with the City of Menifee General Plan Circulation Element.

Principal east-west roadway access to and through the site will be provided by the existing Highway 74 and the improved Ethanac Road Corridor. Primary north -south traffic through the project site will be conveyed via Menifee Road, proposed on-site as an Urban Arterial with a 152’ ROW, and Antelope III. SPECIFIC PLAN
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
III-11

Road (north of Highway 74), and Briggs Road, both proposed on-site as Major Roadways with 118 ’ ROWs. Antelope Road, south of Highway 74, is proposed as a Secondary Roadway with a 100’ ROW.

On-site circulation will be accommodated by a network of public and private roadways. Each major roadway's location and size are designed, as illustrated on Figure III -2 and summarized on Table III- 2, to facilitate the efficient movement of traffic throughout the site.

b. Circulation Development Standards

1) The proposed Circulation Plan provides an efficient traffic design that meets the needs of the community. The on -site system depicted on the Conceptual Circulation Plan (Figure III-2) will serve as the composite Circulation Plan for the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan. The illustrated, on-site roadway improvements will be phased in accordance with this plan.

2) Heavy through-traffic should be eliminated from residential neighborhoods. Major roadways should be implemented as non -access roadways, with residential neighborhoods served by smaller residential collectors.

3) On-site roads will be constructed as:
• Expressway (216’ ROW)
• Urban Arterial (152' ROW)
• Modified Major (123’ ROW)
• Major (118' ROW)
• Secondary (100' ROW)
• Modified Secondary (88’ - 94’ ROW)
• Industrial Collector (78' ROW)
• Modified Industrial Collector (66’ ROW)
• Collector (74' ROW)
• Local Streets (56' – 60’ ROW)

4a) The minimum interior local street width may be reduced from the 60 -foot standard to no less than 56 feet for the purpose of providing more landscaped area as approved by Public Works Director/City Engineer.

4b) A reduction in the width of a local street may be appropriate to reduce traffic speeds on internal residential streets as determined by the City approved Transportation Impact Analysis.

Such reduction in pavement width must be utilized to accomplish other design objectives, e.g., enhancing the buffer treatment of reverse frontage lots, providing for sheltered parking opportunities, or incorporating bus stop turnouts.

4c) The minimum interior local street width in Planning Area 9 and Planning Area 22 may be reduced from the 60-foot standard to no less than 56 feet as approved by the Public Works Director/City Engineer. Interior local streets in these planning areas consist of 32 - 40 feet of paving (curb-to-curb), a 6-foot curb-adjacent sidewalk, and 4-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right-of-way on both sides of the street. .

5) Landscape requirements shall be in accordance with the 2020 City Adopted Design Guidelines as depicted in Section IV, Design Guidelines.

6) Major roadway improvements shall be financed through an assessment district or similar financing mechanism.

7) The project proponent shall participate in the Traffic Signal Mitigation Program as approved by the City.

8) All projects, including subdivisions and plot plans within this Specific Plan, shall be subject to the Development Monitoring Program as described in the Development Monitoring Program (Section II.C) of this Specific Plan.

9) Any application for any subdivision within the Specific Plan boundary (including a Schedule I Parcel Map) shall cause the design and construction of the Specific Plan master planned infrastructure within the final map boundaries, with the exception of a division of land that has no parcel less than 40 acres or that is not less than a quarter of a quarter section.

10) All roadways intersecting four lane facilities or greater shall be a minimum of 66 feet of right- of-way and constructed in accordance with City-adopted Standard Details (2019) and adopted City General Plan.

11) All typical sections shall be per City-adopted Standard Details (2019), or as approved by the Public Works – Engineering Department.

3. DRAINAGE PLAN

a. Drainage Plan Description

The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is located within the boundaries of the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District's (RCFCD) Homeland/Romoland Area Drainage Plan (see Figure III-6, Regional Drainage Plan ). A southern portion of the project site is outside of this area drainage plan, and there are no area drainage plans developed at this time to address drainage issues in this portion.

The master drainage plan suggests a combination of master drainage lines proposed by the RCFCD Area Regional Drainage Plan, and new or revised lines per the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan to be utilized to address off -site drainage issues relative to the site. Figure III -7, Master Drainage Plan , outlines the proposed storm drain system within the project site. Off-site flows will be intercepted at existing drainage courses where possible, and if necessary, drainage swales will be constructed to concentrate all off-site drainage at proposed inlets on the north project boundary.

The Romoland/Homeland Area Drainage Plan anticipates the construction of storm drain facilities north of MENIFEE NORTH to reduce some of the run-off tributary to the north boundary of the project.

Since these off -site facilities are not constructed yet, MENIFEE NORTH development is responsible to intercept the run-off at its existing conditions. Due to increased run -off in Lines A-3 and A-1, on-site retention basins are proposed in order to reduce flows to designed run-off per the Romoland/Homeland Drainage Plan. Lines 1 and 4 will be constructed per the Homeland/Romoland Area Drainage Plan. A portion of Line A within the Specific Plan area has already been designed and will be utilized in the Specific Plan. On -site regional drainage facilities could be required if st orm water exceeds street capacities. The actual size and location of the on -site storm drain system will be determined during design stage of on-site improvement plans.

The construction of Line 1 will cause diversion of flows. This line discharges to proposed Line A per the Master Drainage Plan. The construction of Line A through the site creates a diversion. A portion of Line A from Antelope Road to I -215 has already b een designed by RCFCD but it cannot be constructed until the San Jacinto River project is completed. For the portion of Line A through the project to be approved, all downstream facilities including the Antelope Road storm drain should be established or un der construction. A financing mechanism such as a Community Facilities District (CFD) or Assessment District may be formed by all the affected property owners in order to construct the facilities between Antelope Road and the project boundary.

b. Drainage Plan Development Standards

1) Drainage and flood control facilities and improvements shall be provided in accordance with Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District requirements.

2) It is anticipated that major backbone drainage facilities will be maintained by the County Flood Control District. Local drainage devices within street rights -of-way will be maintained by the City of Menifee.

3) An erosion, sedimentation and flood control plan should be prepared for all development areas draining into the San Jacinto River and Salt Creek. This plan should include no improvements, and should protect these water courses from erosion and siltation d uring III. SPECIFIC PLAN
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
III-21

and after construction. Drainage of urban areas should be controlled prior to reaching either the San Jacinto or Salt Creek courseways through the use of velocity reduction devices at the points where run-off enters the waterways.

4) All projects proposing construction activities including: cleaning, grading or excavation that results in the disturbance of at least one acre of total land area, or activity which is part of a larger common plan of development of one acre or greater, shall obtain the appropriate NPDES construction permit and pay the appropriate fees. On January 29, 2010 the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (SARWQCB) issued a fourth -term area wide National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System Permit (MS4 Permit) to the City of Menifee and all Permittees. The Santa Ana MS4 Permit is for the portion of the Santa Ana River watershed located within Riverside County (Order No. R8 -2010-0033, NPDES Permit No. CAS6180 33). The City of Menifee storm water programs are designed to ensure compliance with this permit. All design submittals and construction within Menifee North Specific Plan are required to conform to the permit requirements. All projects are to install Best Management Practices (BMPs) in compliance with the 2010 SARWQCB permit.

5) All development projects, will be required to obtain an NPDES permit and to comply with any provisions of that permit, this reducing their potential for water quality impacts. For post-construction, implementing Project developers would be required to complet e a project-specific WQMP containing measures that effectively treat all pollutants of concern and hydrologic conditions of concern, consistent with the approved WQMP developed in compliance with the City’s MS4 permit. Project specific site design, sour ce control and treatment control BMPs are included in the project-specific WQMP to protect downstream areas from pollutants after construction. Therefore, Project-related impacts to water quality and hydrology will not be cumulatively considerable.

6) Planning Areas 11, 12, & 13 are not located within A Floodplain as mapped by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA Map No. 06065C2060H August 18, 2014).

Planning Area 14 only has a portion of the southeast corner of the property located within Zone “A” Floodplain Area (Zone A – “No base elevation determined”). Planning Areas 11, 12, 13, and 14 lie within the limits of the Romoland/Homeland Area Drainage Plan (ADP) prepared by Riverside County Flood Control District (R.C.F.C.D.) Amendment No. 2 adopted March 2006. Line A-3 of the Homeland ADP is designed to protect the project from off-site flooding during a 100 year storm event.

4. WATER AND SEWER PLAN

The water and sewer facilities requirements identified below are based on correspondence from Eastern Municipal Water District (November 19, 1992) and the project civil engineer (June 1, 1993). The MENIFEE NORTH project proposes to phase sewer and water system improvements to serve the project area which would allow initial developments to proceed by connecting to existing facilities. As these developments proceed, generated capital from the collection of connect ion fees will provide funding for new facilities to serve the entire area. In addition, as development proceeds, MENIFEE NORTH will have the ability to form Community Facility/Assessment Districts to provide funding for additional improvements.

a. Water Plan Description

Domestic water will be supplied to the MENIFEE NORTH project area by Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD). EMWD's facilities master plan indicates that system improvements should occur within the project area. The proposed backbone water distribution and storage system improvements for the project area are illustrated on Figure III-8, Backbone Water Plan. The plan for providing water service to the area is based on EMWD's regional planning effort and therefore is compatible with the District's current planning concepts. District water system improvements include approximately 12 million gallons of storage with water lines ranging in diameter from 12" to 30". Pumping improvements include approximately 5,500 gallons per minute of new capacity as w ell as reworking and/or automation of the Ellis, Homeland and Vista pumping plants.

The project requires water services for three existing water pressure zones: 1627' zone , 1811’ zone, and 1693' zone. The 1627' zone is the major water supply zone in the area and it is anticipated that Planning Areas 4, 5, 6 and 14 will be able to connect to this zone with minimal off -site water line improvements.

Currently, the 1693' zone has no storage. Water is pumped from the 1627' zone through the 1693' zone and into the 1811' zone. Currently, there is approximately one million gallons of storage in the 1811' zone and 0.4 million gallons of storage in the 1785' zone. In EMWD's master plan, the 1811' zone and the 1785' zone merge and continue providing service as the 1811' zone. This will occur once EMWD constructs a 3.4-million-gallon storage tank southeasterly of Juniper Flats Road and Highway 74, along with ot her facilities necessary to fill this tank, providing available storage capacity for new connections.

It is anticipated that EMWD will require the project to construct reclaimed water lines on -site so that when the regional system is complete, the project can ultimately utilize reclaimed water for certain types of irrigation.

b. Sewer Plan Description

Collection and treatment of wastewater will be provided by Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD). Portions of the MENIFEE NORTH project are located within EMWD Assessment Districts Nos. 5 (Romoland AD) and 7 (Homeland AD). These portions of the project site are eligible to connect to the AD funded facilities for wastewater service. However, due to the project's service demand above that which was anticipated at the time AD Nos. 5 and 7 were formed, some improvements to these systems would be necessary to provide an adequate level of service.

III. SPECIFIC PLAN
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
III-25

In order for the portions of the project area not located within AD Nos. 5 or 7 to receive sewer service, system improvements will be necessary. EMWD's wastewater facilities master plan describes a conceptual layout of gravity-flow sewer lines that would accomplish the required service. The MENIFEE NORTH project would be required to design and construct master-planned facilities which would allow for a system of sewers located within public road rights-of-way which are capable of conveying all on- site generated flow by gravity. Backbone wastewater system improvements necessary to provide an adequate level of service to MENIFEE NORTH are illustrated on Figure III-9. For residential areas located within AD Nos. 5 and 7, sewer lines will be constructed to join the existing AD funded sewer facilities to developing areas up to the AD planned densities. Densities greater than planned for the ADs will pay connection fees and construct facilities to join the District funded 24" and larger trunk sewer main that will connect to the expanded Perris Valley Regional Water Reclamation Facility.

c. Water and Sewer Plan Development Standards

1) All water and sewer lines shall be placed underground.

2) All water and sewer lines and sewage and water disposal facilities shall be designed per the Eastern Municipal Water Districts requirements.

3) The project developer shall submit information which describes estimates of the project's reclaimed water demand, and landscape/irrigation conceptual plans to EMWD for review. At the time of EMWD's review, a determination shall be made regarding requirements for reclaimed water use and system improvements by the subject project.

The MENIFEE NORTH project provides for an open space and recreation program which offers recreational opportunities in which all members of the community can participate. The program incorporates many diverse elements in a coordinated, cohesive plan that interrelates with and links the various neighborhoods of the community and certain destination points, such as schools, parks, open spaces and shopping facilities. Recreational opportunities vary from community trails to active (i.e. community parks). Varying types and deg rees of activities will be available which will provide residents with the opportunity to take quiet "walks in the park," participate in organized sports, social gatherings, and active outdoor informal recreational activities such as biking. Figure III -10, Open Space and Recreation Plan, depicts the various open spaces and recreational areas included in MENIFEE NORTH. Quimby calculations and the elements and acreages of the Open Space and Recreation Plan are discussed below and summarized in Tables III-3 and III-4.

TOTAL 3,972 19.8

According to Section 7.75 of the City’s Municipal Code, residential development must provide 5.0 acres of active parkland per 1,000 residents. MENIFEE NORTH provides for the development of a target of 1,506 homes, which includes 698 single-family dwelling units (with attached garages) within MDR and MHDR land use designations and 808 multi -family dwelling units within HDR and VHDR land use designations. Using population generation rates from Section 7.75.060 of the City’s Municipal Code, MENIFEE NORTH may be home for up to 3, 953 residents, ( 698 single-family homes x 2.85 persons per household = 1,990 persons; and 808 multi-family homes x 2.43 persons per household = 1,963 persons), generating a parkland requirement of 19. 8 acres [(3,953 residents/1,000 residents) x

5.0 acres = 19.8 acres].

In accordance with the City of Menifee’s Municipal Code (Section 7.75) and as summarized in Table III-3, Quimby Act Requirements , MENIFEE NORTH is required to provide 19. 8 acres of parkland.

MENIFEE NORTH provides for 21.4 acres of parkland credit, as summarized in Table III-4, Open Space and Recreation Summary. Therefore, MENIFEE NORTH exceeds the park land dedication requirements of the City of Menifee by 1.6 acres.

6. GRADING PLAN

a. Grading Plan Description

The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan grading is tailored to the existing topography of the project site. It is intended that the proposed plan be sensitive to and reflect natural landforms where possible, incorporating project requirements for drainage and infrastructural impro vements so that residential, commercial, industrial and recreational uses are accommodated. (See Figure III-11, Grading Concept.)

According to an earthwork quantity take -off conducted by the project engineer, it appears that the project site will balance and will not require import or export. Based on the Conceptual Grading Plan approximately 4,960,000 cubic yards of material will be moved. This figure may vary slightly as final grading plans are developed. As discussed in the Engineering Report (Section V.B., Technical Appendices), this Grading Plan also establishes a basis for appropriate treatment of drainage requirements and accommodate a street system that meets City of Menifee standards for appropriate grades.

b. Grading Plan Development Standards

1) All grading activities shall be in substantial conformance with the overall Grading Concept (Figure III-11).

2) Prior to any development within any area of the Specific Plan boundaries, an overall Conceptual Grading Plan for the portion in process shall be submitted for Community Development Department approval. The Grading Plan for each such area shall be used as a guideline for subsequent detailed grading plans for individual stages of development within that area, and shall include: Techniques employed to prevent erosion and sedimentation during and after the grading process; approximate time frames for grading ; identification of areas which may be graded during higher probability rain months (January through March), and preliminary pad and roadway elevations.

3) All street gradients shall not exceed 15%.

4) Graded slopes shall be oriented to minimize visual impacts to surrounding areas.

5) The overall slope, height and grade of any cut and fill slope shall be developed in concert with the existing natural contours and scale of the natural terrain of a particular site.

6) The toes and tops of all slopes higher than ten (10) feet shall be rounded with curves with radii designed in proportion to the total height of the slope, where drainage and stability permit such rounding.

7) Cut or fill slopes exceeding one hundred (100) feet in horizontal length, if any, shall be graded to meander the toe and top of the slope.

8) Slopes exceeding ten (10) feet in vertical height shall be hydromulched, prior to final acceptance and prior to the beginning of the rain season (October-March).

III. SPECIFIC PLAN
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
III-33

9) Prior to initial grading activities, a soils report and a geotechnical study shall be performed that further analyze on-site soil conditions and slope stability and include appropriate measures to control erosion and dust.

10) Detailed grading plans shall be prepared prior to any on-site grading for each project or group of projects.

11) Per Site Design Guidelines (p. 74) in the 2020 City -Adopted Design Guidelines, “I n steeper terrain (twenty percent {20%} slope and greater), front yard setbacks may be reduced to a minimum of twenty (20) feet from back of curb or back of sidewalk, whichever is more restrictive, to minimize rear yard grading”.

12) Where cut and fill slopes are created higher than ten (10) feet, detailed landscaping and irrigation plans shall be submitted to the Community Development Department prior to grading plan approval. The plans shall be reviewed for type and density of ground cover, shrubs and trees.

13) The applicant shall be responsible for maintenance and upkeep of all planting and irrigation systems until those operations are the responsibility of other parties.

14) Angular forms shall be discouraged. The graded form shall reflect natural terrain, where possible.

15) Potential brow ditches, terrace drains or other minor swales, determined necessary at future stages of project review, shall be lined with natural erosion control materials or concrete.

16) Grading work shall be balanced on-site whenever possible.

17) Graded but undeveloped land shall be maintained weed -free and planted with interim landscaping within 90 days of completion of grading, unless building permits are obtained.

18) Unless otherwise approved by the City of Menifee Department of Building and Safety, all cut and fill slopes shall be constructed at inclinations of no steeper than two (2) horizontal feet to one (1) vertical foot. The Grading Plan will reflect a contou ring intended to control slope erosion.

19) Natural features such as significant rock outcrops shall be protected to the greatest extent feasible in the siting of individual lots and building pads.

20) A grading permit shall be obtained from the City of Menifee, as required by the Title 8 of the City of Menifee Municipal Code, prior to grading. The project shall comply with all applicable provisions of Title 8.

21) If any historic or prehistoric remains are discovered during grading, a qualified archaeologist should be consulted to ascertain their significance. If human remains are discovered, work shall halt in that area and procedures set forth in the California Public Resources Code (Sec. 5097.98) and State Health and Safety Code (Sec. 7050.5) shall be followed, including notification to the County Coroner.

22) Soil stabilizers shall be used to control dust as required by SCAQMD Rule 403.

7. ILLUSTRATIVE LANDSCAPING PLAN

a. Landscaping Plan Descriptions

As illustrated on Figure IV-1, Conceptual Landscape Plan, project landscaping will play an important role in maintaining project design themes, while emphasizing community continuity. This section of the Specific Plan provides a general description and development standards for the landscaping concept. Detailed landscaping information is provided in the Design Guidelines contained within this Specific Plan (Section IV.D.).

Entry monumentation will provide initial definition for the site, and will be viewed when approaching the site from any direction. Once within the site, entry monumen tation will continue to be present at all key intersections. Monumentation will be develo ped in a hierarchical format which will provide initial community identification for each residential planning area, and the community as a whole.

Landscaping within the project itself will articulate community design elements at the commercial areas, business parks, parks, and schools and will define boundaries and transitions between differing land uses and easements. Individual neighborhoods and residential development enclaves will also be distinguished by varied planting themes. Special treatments including land use transition areas, will be provided between certain planning areas identified in the Planning Area Development Standards (Section III.B.).

Landscaping will be used to identify the hierarchy of the street system, from major access roads to interior residential streets, creating definite landscaped corridors. This is accomplished by careful considerations of the relationship between street and plant materials characteristics such as size, form, texture and color.

b. Landscaping Plan Development Standards

1) All detailed landscaping programs for planning areas and roadways shall be prepared by a qualified landscape architect for review by County staff and decision-making agencies.

2) Project entry statements shall be designed with landscaping and architectur al treatments that project a high-quality image for the mixed-use development.

3) The landscaping design for the site shall include turf, trees, shrubs and ground cover compatible with natural vegetation on -site, where feasible. Detailed landscaping design information is provided in the Section IV, Design Guidelines of this Specific Plan.

4) Special treatment areas shall be designed to provide definition to certain planning areas as identified in Section III.B.

5) Major entrance roads into the MENIFEE NORTH project shall have planted medians and landscaped shoulders to define the project's design concept. The introductory landscape theme shall include elements such as tree clustering to reinforce the project theme and character.

6) Landscaped medians may be established within any roadway right -of-way as long as access and safety criteria can be met as approved by the City Engineer.

III. SPECIFIC PLAN
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
III-37

7) Prior to recordation of any final subdivision map, improvement plans for the respective landscaped areas, or plans to mitigate an environmental impact for the stage of development, shall be submitted to the Community Development Department for approval. The improvement plans shall include, but not be limited to the following:

• Final grading plan.
• Irrigation plans certified by a landscape architect.
• A landscape plan with seed mixes for mulching and staking methods; locations, type, size and quantity or plantings.
• A hardscape plan with location, type and quantity of potential recreational amenities/facilities (in medium and medium-high density residential areas). • Fence treatment plans.
• Special treatment/buffer area treatment plans.

8) The master developer shall be responsible for maintenance and upkeep of all slope plantings, common landscaped areas, and irrigation systems until such time as these operations are the responsibility of other parties.

9) At the time of recordation of any tentative subdivision which contains a common greenbelt or open space area, the subdivision shall have those common areas conveyed to the master property-owners' association or appropriate public maintenance agency.

10) The landscaping plan shall reflect the following water conservation methods, whenever possible: landscape with low water -using plants, wherever feasible; group plants of similar water use to reduce over-irrigation of low water-using plants; use mulch extensively, as mulch applied on top of soil will improve the water -holding capacity of the soil by reducing evaporation and soil compaction; install efficient irrigation systems that minimize runoff and evaporation and maximize the water that will reach pl ant roots. Drip irrigation, soil moisture sensors, and automatic irrigation systems are a few methods of increasing irrigation efficiency.

11) Front yard landscaping shall be provided on all lots smaller than one -half acre. Typical plans will be submitted during tract map processing.

12) For further Landscape Development Standards, please refer to Section IV.D., Design Guidelines.

10. COMPREHENSIVE MAINTENANCE PLAN

Successful operation of maintenance districts and associations are important in maintaining quality in the project area. It is anticipated that maintenance responsibilities for common project facilities will be divided among a Master Maintenance Organizati on, Neighborhood Associations or similar financing mechanisms. The decision regarding the maintenance mechanism will be made at a future stage of project design and review in concert with City agencies.

a. Master Maintenance Organization

Common areas identified in the Specific Plan shall be owned and maintained by a permanent public master maintenance organization, such as the City’s Community Facilities District , to assume ownership and maintenance responsibility for all common recreation, open space, circulation systems and landscaped areas (including those in commercial areas). Areas of responsibility would include the community parks, the community center, parkway landscaping medians, entry monuments, open space and the community trail. The Valley-Wide Recreation and Park District is a possible maintenance mechanism that could maintain all project level facilities. The District currently maintains the Marion V. Ashley Park and Community Center in Planning Area 20, and performs similar functions in Hemet and in the Menifee project south of MENIFEE NORTH. MENIFEE NORTH is currently within the Valley - Wide sphere of influence but is not within or abutting the current District boundaries. Under the current procedures and regulations, annexation or the project site and certain intervening properties would be necessary.

b. Residential Neighborhood Associations

In certain residential areas of the project, smaller associations may be formed to assume maintenance responsibility for common areas and facilities that benefit only residents in those areas. Potential private recreation centers, mini -parks, common open s pace areas, and potential private roadways exemplify facilities that may be under the jurisdiction of a neighborhood association.

c. Commercial/Business Park/Industrial Areas

Commercial, Business Park and Industrial planning areas may have their own private associations. If no association is formed, a common maintenance charge will be assessed to cover common area maintenance. Maintenance for these planning areas also may be assumed by individual prope rty owners.

d. Project Roadways

All public project roadways and private streets will be designed and constructed to standards acceptable to the C ity. All public roads will be entered into the C ity system of roads for operation and maintenance, as approved by the Menifee City Council. Private roadways, if any, will be maintained by a private homeowners' association.

e. School Sites

Maintenance responsibilities for the school site in Planning Area 21 are overseen by the governing School District (Romoland).

III. SPECIFIC PLAN
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
III-45

B. PLANNING AREA DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS

Development standards for MENIFEE NORTH have been established at three levels: General Development Provisions, which were addressed in Section III; Design Guidelines, which are provided in Section IV; and Planning Area Development Standards to which this section is devoted. In addition, the standards of the Specific Plan Zone applicable to MENIFEE NORTH shall apply.

This section identifies the planning standards for each land use designation, including permitted/conditional/ancillary land uses, minimum lot sizes, building setbacks, building height, and other development standards. In addition, standards are provided f or the community’s infrastructure, open space, grading and maintenance.

The Permitted Uses and Development Standards found in this section shall constitute the zoning for MENIFEE NORTH. In cases where no standard is provided, the City of Menifee’s Zoning Ordinance will govern the Permitted Uses and Development Standards, unless otherwise noted.

Planning areas were selected on the basis of logical, separate units of development. Criteria considered in this process included uniformity of use as it pertains to zoning, relationship to adjoining product and surrounding topography.

The planning area graphics for this section (Figures III-14 to III-30) were derived from the Conceptual Landscape Plan (Figure IV-1). The site plans depicted herein are only conceptual in nature. Although development may conform closely to some elements of the illustrative plans provided in Section IV it is anticipated that actual lotting will not be determined until the tract map stage.

Please note: Planning Area 1, which was originally designated for 18 acres of Commercial/Business Park use, was annexed to the City of Perris and was therefore deleted from Specific Plan No. 260.

The uses and development standards for multi -family uses will be the same as those in neighboring Planning Area 11. The purpose of these Planning Areas 12A and 12B is to provide flexibility between the commercial planning areas to the south, and the residential planning areas to the north.

The ultimate use configuration of this Planning Area will be determined by development application in the neighboring Planning Areas. The first application submitted for either Planning Area 11A/11B or 13A/13B may encroach into Planning Area 12A/12B respec tively. Planning Area 12A can be developed as up to 100% Commercial (with PA 13A) or up to a maximum of 67% High Density Residential (with PA 11A) and 33% commercial (with PA 13A). These percentages are based on square footage only and may be of any configuration as long as the land uses are contiguous with the PA 11A and PA 13A areas. PA 12B may be adjusted to a maximum 100% of either High Density Residential (with PA 11B) or Commercial (with PA 13B).

Once a development application is approved in either neighboring Planning Area (11A or 11B or 13A or 13B), the Land use designation will then be determined for the remainder of Planning Area 12A or 12B respectively. If the maximum 67% of Planning Area 12A and all of Area 12B are developed as High Density Residential (14.7 DU/AC), the total number of units would be 135.

b. Development Standards

Please refer to Table III-15A for Permitted Uses and III -15C for Development Standards. Other uses not listed may be considered a permitted or conditionally permitted use provided that the Community Development Director finds that the proposed use is substantially the same in character and intensity as those listed in the designated subsections. Such a use is subject to the permit process, which governs the category in which it falls. Landscape shall conform to the City Adopted landscape Guidelines.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5
IV-1
IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
A. PURPOSE AND INTENT
These guidelines have been devised as a method for achieving a high quality, cohesive design fabric for the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan area community.

More specifically, the purpose of these Design Guidelines is:
• To provide the City of Menifee with the necessary assur ance 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 City staff, the Planning Commission and the City 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 Figure IV-1, Conceptual Landscape Plan, 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 to adjacent compatible land uses. The design provides for unifying elements in each planning area. Streetscape corridors, entry monumentation, and project-wide design guidelines provide unifying characteristics to strengthen the overall theme. Additionally, the design 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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-2

Landscaping plays a significant role in establishing MENIFEE NORTH's distinctive character. The community’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. Development of Improved Recreational Open Space

The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan proposes the integration of recreational trails, community parks, mini- parks 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.

b. 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

Figure IV -1, Conceptual Landscape Plan , 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 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 Entries 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:

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-3
• 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 Entries 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 require ments. See Figure IV-3.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-4
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.

c. Minor Intersections (Figure IV-4)

Minor Intersections, as illustrated in Figure IV -4, are the third level of hierarchy for MENIFEE NORTH.

Treatments reflect similar thematic features of previously described monumentations as follows:

• A 60-foot corner cutoff monumentation treatment.
• A 20-foot turf grass threshold.
• Formal grouping of tall evergreen trees to provide continuity with community and project monumentation treatments.
• Formal hedge row treatment compatible with other monumentation. • Intersections may incorporate community theme walls or fencing, depending on adjacent land use requirements. See Figure IV-4.
d. Neighborhood Entries / Business Monument Signage (Figures IV-5 and IV-6)

Neighborhood Entries, as illustrated on Figure IV-5, and Business Monument Signage, as illustrated on Figure IV-6, share the fourth level of hierarchy and complete the monumentations for MENIFEE NORTH.

These treatments are intended for future local streets that have not been identified on the Conceptual Landscape Plan, but will occur as part of the actual project design. Individual users are encouraged to reflect forms, materials, and graphics of other project monumentations to provide overall continuity and strengthen the theme of MENIFEE NORTH's community elements.

2. LAND USE TRANSITIONS

To create a high -quality, aesthetically pleasing community, and buffer dissimilar uses to the extent practical, the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan provides a variety of transition treatments. These treatments utilize landscape material including vegetation and hardscape to facilitate the community’s mixed use concept by improving land use compatibility. The transitions allow land uses of similar intensity or compatibility to interlink, while providing visual and physical separation between land uses of dissimilar intensity or with limited compatibility.

The conceptual locations for each of these land use transitions are specified 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)

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-5
This interface occurs along the northern and eastern portions of the project , where low, medium and medium-high density residential land uses within MENIFEE NORTH are adjacent to established, large lot residential neighborhoods. Figure IV-7 illustrates the on-site residential/existing adjacent residential land use transition which incorporates the following components:

• To retain the rural nature of these interfaces, a 40 -foot backyard setback is provided for on -site residential lots to create a landscaped buffer.
• Encourage on -site residential lots to establish generous backyard landscaping with informal groupings of both vertical and canopy trees to limit views from adjacent existing residential properties to proposed residential roof lines.
• A 6-foot-high community theme wall is provided at the property line. • Where grading changes occur, incorporate contour grading techniques, avoiding sharp cut manufactured slopes to create a more natural appearance. b. Residential (PA 9)/ Adjacent Existing Residential Interface (Figure IV-8)

This interface occurs along the northern boundary of Planning Area 9, which are adjacent to established, large lot residential neighborhoods. Figure IV-8 illustrates the residential uses in Planning Area 9 and the existing adjacent neighborhood, which incorporates the following components:

• A 15-foot rear yard setback with a minimum 10’ level area. • A 4-foot side yard setback for side on conditions.

An additional 10-foot set back starting at the 6 -foot-high tubular steel fence at the rear property line of homes in Planning Area 9, consisting of a 5-foot landscaped slope at a 10:1 grade, a 5-foot wide concrete drainage swale, with a 6-foot high block wall at the tract boundary .

c. Secondary Road Streetscape / Adjacent Existing Residential Interface (Figure IV-9)

This land use transition is created where streetscape improvements for Watson Road are adjacent to established, large lot residential neighborhoods . The 88 -foot street right -of-way separates on-site residential and school land uses from off-site uses. This land use transition, as illustrated in Figure IV-9, incorporates the following components:

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-19)

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, transition ing outward to adjacent compatible land uses. A formal statement of distinctive tall evergreen trees, as depicted in Figure IV-19, 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. Urban Arterial Highway Streetscapes - Menifee Road (Figure IV-20) and Major Highway Streetscape - Antelope Road and Briggs Road (Figure IV-21)

Because Menifee Road and Briggs Road continue through adjacent proposed and existing communities, special consideration has been given to create continuity throughout these areas. 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 Collector Road Streetscape (Figure IV-22)

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 -22.

d. Modified Secondary/Collector Road Streetscape – Palomar Road and Watson Road (PA 9 & PA 22) (Figure IV-23)

The portion of Watson Road abutting Planning Area 22 and the portion of Palomar Road abutting Planning Area 9 shall consist of a combination of plant material types and planting arrangements to provide residential privacy and enhance community entries. The landscaped parkways are planted in accordance with Section IV.D.2. Menifee North Plant Material Palette.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

• Watson Road - Modified Secondary (94’ R.O.W.): The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is responsible for the southerly 50 -foot-wide half-width section improvements to Watson Road, including a 9-foot-wide curb adjacent landscaped parkway, a 5-foot sidewalk, and a 4-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right -of-way.
• Palomar Road - Modified Collector (88’ R.O.W.): The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is responsible for the easterly 44 -foot-wide half -width section improvements to Palomar Road, including a Class II bike lane, 6-foot-wide curb adjacent sidewalk, and a 6-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right-of-way. No trees shall be planted along the easterly right-of-way of Palomar Road, in conformance with existing SCE easement restrictions .

e. Collector Streetscape - Junipero Road (Figure IV-24)

Junipero Road serves as an access point into Planning Area 9. The ultimate half width improvements to Junipero Road are illustrated on Figure IV-24, and the MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is responsible for the westerly 37-foot-wide half-width section improvements, as well as an additional 12 feet of pavement east of the centerline. Improvements include a 5-foot-wide curb adjacent landscaped parkway, a 6-foot-wide sidewalk, and a 4-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right-of-way. The landscaped parkway is planted in accordance with Section IV.D.2. Menifee North Plant Material Palette.

e. Local Street/Modified Industrial Collector – Malone Avenue (Figure IV-25) Malone Avenue and neighborhood streets within Planning Area 22 are characterized by a well-balanced combination of plants and trees to further strengthen the community’s suburban character. The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is responsible for the following improvements:

• Malone Avenue (South of Varela) – Modified Industrial Collector (66’ ROW): The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is responsible for the easterly 3533-foot-wide half -width section improvements, as well as an additional 12 feet of paving west of the centerline. Improvements include a 6-foot-wide curb adjacent sidewalk and a 5-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right-of-way.
• Malone Avenue (North of Varela) – Modified Local Street (60’ ROW): The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan is responsible for the easterly 30-foot-wide half-width section improvements, as well as an additional 12 feet of paving west of the centerline. Improvements include a 6-foot-wide curb adjacent sidewalk and a 4-foot-wide landscaped parkway at the edge of the right -of-way.

4. COMMUNITY OPEN SPACE

The MENIFEE NORTH Specific Plan offers a variety of open space and recreational opportunities as discussed below.

a. Community Center/Park/School Shared Use (Figures IV-26 and IV-27)

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 City of Menifee 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

IV-13
interface conditions as previously discussed. A conceptual site plan for the 11.4-acre community center/park is shown in Figure IV -26; and a conceptual site plan for the 12.5-acre community park is shown on Figure IV-27.

c. Mini-Parks (Figure IV-28)

The land use plan proposes the development of one mini-park. This park is intended to serve as a gathering place for the residential enclaves in which it 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 par t 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 has been developed for community walls and fences as illustrated in Figure IV -30, Community Walls and Fence Details, and Figure IV-31, Community Walls and Fence Details (PA 9 and PA 22). The location of each wall or fence is conceptually illustrated in Figure IV-30, 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 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.

6. SIGNAGE

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.

4. LANDSCAPE INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

All areas required to be landscaped shall be planted with trees, shrubs, groundcover, vines or turf selected from the plant palette contained in these Design Guidelines.

Parcel developers should assess any existing landscaping adjacent to their property and whenever possible, reinforce and complement that established character. Detailed landscape plans are to be prepared by a licensed landscape architect for each individual project. Parcel Developers must submit landscape plans to proper agencies for approval prior to installation.

5. CLIMATIC CONSTRAINTS

a. The plant materials for MENIFEE NORTH have been chosen for their ability to thrive within the site's exacting climate. The plants should grow to their full potential with a minimum amount of maintenance and replacement costs.

Precipitation, temperature, and wind are the limiting climatic factors affecting plant choice.

b. Average annual rainfall in the area varies from nine to thirteen inches.

c. The MENIFEE NORTH area's extreme temperatures range from 18 degrees in the winter to 115 degrees in the summer. The average daily temperature range is 40 to 65 degrees in the winter and 58 to 90 degrees in the summer.

6. HORTICULTURAL SOILS TEXT REQUIREMENTS

Due to the many varieties of soils within MENIFEE NORTH, all Parcel Developers shall be required to prepare a horticultural soils report to determine appropriate planting and maintenance requirements for specified plant materials. This soils report shall be prepared by a qualified agricultural laboratory supervised by a member of the American Soils Testing Laboratory and shall include a soils fertility and agricultural suitability analysis with pre-planting and post-planting recommendations to be included in the landscape working drawings.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-24

7. IRRIGATION

a. All areas requiring landscaping shall include the installation of a permanent automatic irrigation system to ensure proper plant growth. The irrigation system shall be designed to separate turf areas from shrub areas so as not to irrigate shrubs, groundcover, and lawn simultaneously.

b. Pop-up sprinklers adjacent to all walkways and areas of pedestrian or vehicular traffic shall be spring retractable types.

c. Pop-up sprinklers shall have matched precipitation rates.

d. All valves shall be wired independently.

e. Irrigation backflow prevention devices and controllers shall be located and/or screened with appropriate plant material to minimize visibility.

f. Detailed irrigation plans are to be prepared by a licensed landscape architect.

g. Parcel Developers must submit irrigation plans to appropriate reviewing agencies for approval prior to installation.

8. LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE

a. The overall aesthetic effect of the landscape shall be an evergreen thriving plant community. Each owner shall provide continuous maintenance for all planted and hardscape areas within his/her site, keeping it free and clear of weeds, debris, rubbish, and in a neat and clean condition.

b. All owners will be required to maintain plant materials in a thriving condition of growth by practicing proper agriculture techniques of pruning, pest control and fertilization. All palms shall be skinned periodically as necessary. Special attention must be given to preventing the installation of rootbound Eucalyptus species.

c. From the completion of installation, landscaping shall be maintained in a sightly and well kept condition.

d. Until maintenance responsibility is transferred to a Maintenance Organization, the Master Developer shall repair and maintain all landscaped parkways and medians. This maintenance shall include the replacement of landscaping, pavement, and lighting (if necessary), keeping the area free and clear of weeds, debris and rubbish, and in a well kept condition.

e. No owner shall interface with the drainage of water from any site except in accordance with plans approved by all public agencies having jurisdiction.

f. Landscaping and irrigation installed by the Master Developer or the Parcel Developer shall be maintained by them, in a healthy and operational condition until its transfer to public responsibil- ity. All plant material failure shall be replaced with same materials that will match the size and height of adjacent material. Damaged or malfunctioning irrigation must be repaired or replaced to

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 the basically arid climate located in the 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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-59
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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-62

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. 5

IV-63

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-64

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. 5

IV-65

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-66

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-67

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.

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-68

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".

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-69

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-70

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-71

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-72

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-73

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

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.

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.

IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES
MENIFEE NORTH SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 260 AMENDMENT NO. 5

IV-74

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. Multi- tenant 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.
