PP No. PLN23-0069 and CUP No. PLN23-0070 were approved by the Planning Commission for the construction of a 4-story, 65,463 square-foot hotel, consisting of 106 rooms behind (or to the south) of Living Spaces within the Menifee Town Center Shopping Center. The existing approximate 2-acre site has partial improvements consisting of an overflow parking lot and associated landscaping that serve the existing retail shopping center to the north. The Project proposes 106 parking spaces, 46 of which are located within the existing shopping center Project site via existing reciprocal parking. The Project site is a part of Menifee Village Specific Plan (SP No. 158).
A CUP (PLN23-0070) was approved to increase the maximum building height allowed by the specific plan from 35 feet (3-stories) to approximately 54’3” feet (4-stories). The maximum height limit may be increased per Section
18.34 of Ordinance No. 348 subject to the approval of a CUP.
