NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Menifee does ordain as follows: Section 1. An Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) No. 423 for previously approved Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 1 (SP301A1) has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act. The Addendum to the EIR addresses impacts associated with the proposed Specific Plan Amendment, Change of Zone, and Tentative Tract Map. In the Addendum, it was found that with implementation of mitigation measures, the proposed project would not result in any new significant effects that were not previously identified in EIR No. 423. In addition, the proposed project would not require "major revisions" to the previous EIR. The project would not involve any new environmental impacts or substantially increase the severity of the previously identified significant impacts. Subsequent to the certification of EIR No. 423, no new information of substantial importance has become available which was not known at the time the previous EIR was prepared. A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP) was prepared, and identifies all mitigation measures that will be required for the project. Page 2 of 5 Specific Plan Amendment No. 2016-140 December 19, 2018 Section 2. In accordance with the provisions of the City of Menifee Municipal Code, the City Council hereby makes the following findings for Specific Plan Amendment No. 2016-140: A. The Specific Plan Amendment set forth on Exhibit "1" to this Ordinance, including the Conditions of Approval as set forth in Exhibit "2" to this Ordinance, is found to be consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan. The project site is designated Specific Plan (Menifee Valley Ranch Specific Plan) per the City of Menifee's General Plan. The intent of the Specific Plan land use designation is to recognize areas where an existing specific plan is in place and to provide policies, standards and criteria for the development or redevelopment of these areas. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment meets the requirements of the Specific Plan land use designation and supports the following policies: The Specific Plan includes the following two objectives: • To provide land uses which complement and expand the type of housing available within the City of Menifee. • To reflect anticipated market needs and public demand by providing a diversity of housing types which will be marketable within the region, including first-time home buyers and active adults. • To provide a variety of recreational amenities for the community such as a lake, a clubhouse, a Private Recreation Center, multi-use parks, greenbelts, bikeways, and jog paths. The proposed Specific Plan amendment expands the type of housing available within the Specific Plan area as well as the City of Menifee and it proposed for a wider diversity of housing types, including first-time home buyers. In addition, the Specific Plan Amendment would create a Planning Area which would allow for the proposed Recreation Center. This will provide a greater variety of recreational amenities. In addition, the Specific Plan Amendment is consistent with the following City of Menifee General Plan policies: Policy LU-1.1: Concentrate growth in strategic locations to help preserve rural areas, create place and identity, provide infrastructure efficiently, and foster the use of transit options. The proposed project is located within an urbanized area surrounded to the west and south by existing medium density residential subdivision and to the north by properties designated for residential use, and would, therefore, avoid and/or preserve rural areas of the City. Policy LU-1.2: Provide a spectrum of housing types and price ranges that match the jobs in the city and make it possible for people to live and work in Menifee and maintain a high quality of life. The Specific Plan Amendment allow for a broader mix of unit sizes (4,500 sq. ft.) and types which diversifies the Specific Plan area. Therefore, the ... ...... ... ........ ... ... ... ...... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... .. ... ... ....... ... ... ... ... .. ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... .. ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ..... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ...... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ... ...... ...... ... ... ... ...... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ...... ... ...... ... ... ...... ......... ... ... ..... .... .... ... ... ... .............. ... ... ........... ... ... .......... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ...... ...... ... ...... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ...... y. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ......... ... ... ... ........ ...... ........... ... ... ... ...... ...... ... ...... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...... ... ... ... ........ ... ... ... ...

Page 3 of 5 Specific Plan Amendment No. 2016-140 December 19, 2018 Specific Plan provides a range of homeownership opportunities that allow potential residents to be able to afford to live and work in Menifee. Policy LU-1.5: Support development and land use patterns, where appropriate, that reduce reliance on the automobile and capitalize on multimodal transportation opportunities. Offsite improvements surrounding the project site include a paseo with meandering sidewalk and Class II bike lane along the project frontage on McCall Boulevard, Heritage Lakes Drive, and Briggs Road. Therefore, the Specific Plan is consistent with this goal. The Specific Plan includes an integrated system of off-street pedestrian paths that encourage non-vehicular circulation throughout the Specific Plan area. The paths provide pedestrian connections between the residential portions of the project and the on-site schools, the community park, the neighborhood parks, the lake, and the various greenbelts. Policy LU-1.7: Ensure neighborhood amenities and public facilities (natural open space areas, parks, libraries, schools, trails, etc.) are distributed equitably throughout the city. The Specific Plan Amendment allows for the recreational center to be located within the project site. This will further distribution recreational amenities, including an HOA-maintained community pool, throughout the Specific Plan area. Policy LU-1.9 -Allow for flexible development standards provided that the potential benefits and merit of projects can be balanced with potential impacts. The intent of the Specific Plan is to allow for a degree of design flexibility to respond to future conditions. The Specific Plan Amendment is intended to allow for this same degree of flexibility. Policy LU-2.1: Promote infill development that complements existing neighborhoods and surrounding areas. Infill development and future growth in Menifee is strongly encouraged to locate within EDC areas to preserve the rural character of rural, estate, and small estate residential uses. The proposed project is located within an urbanized area. The project is located within a Specific Plan. There is existing residential land uses to the west and south of the site and properties designated for residential and commercial use to the north and east, respectively. The proposed project will promote infill development and complements these existing and proposed adjacent land uses and fulfills the intent of the Specific Plan. Goal ED-3: A mix of land uses that generates a fiscal balance to support and enhance the community's quality of life.

This FIA was reviewed and it was determined the land use change from commercial to residential would have a negative fiscal impact. As such, the project has been conditioned to mitigate this impact of $1,123,640.60. The developer is required to submit fees at occupy in the amount of the net present value over 30 years. This equates to $14,045.50 per dwelling unit. Therefore, the project would generate no net negative fiscal impact. Policy ED-3.1: Incorporate short-term and long-term economic and fiscal implications of proposed actions into decision making. As previously mentioned, the developer is required to submit fees at occupancy to offset the project's impact to the City's General Fund and therefore the project would not create short- or long-term fiscal impacts as a result of the Consistency with Housing Element. The Project site is not identified in the City's Housing Element as a Housing Opportunity Site for residential. The Housing Element did not assume the site would contribute any dwelling units. The Project would, therefore, not conflict with any density range anticipated in the Housing Element for the site. Section 3. The City Council of the City of Menifee finds that the Ordinance is not anticipated to create conditions materially detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare. Section 4. The City Council of the City of Menifee finds that the Ordinance is consistent with the requirements of the City of Menifee Municipal Code. Section 5. Notice of Adoption. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, and shall cause the same to be published within fifteen (15) days after passage in accordance with law, and shall cause this Ordinance and its certification, together with proof of publication, to be entered in the Book of Ordinances of the City of Menifee. Section 6. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect and be in full force and operation thirty (30) days after its adoption. Section 7. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance, and each section, subsection subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional. ~ - - - - - - � - - - - - _ ~ - - -- - � - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - , - - - - - ~ - � ~ - - - � - - - � -- - - - - - - - -- - - - ~ _ - - - - - -- - - � -= - � - - - ... - �� -- � - . - - - -- - - -- - - - p' - - - -- - - - -- - ~ - - - - - - - - - ! � - - - __. -- - - - �� ����' - - - - - - -- - -_ - - - ... - - - - - - - - - - - - - � - - - - - - - - � - - - ... - - �� - '� -- - ...... - r - - � - - - - � - - - �� ........ � � - - - � - - - - =' � - - � - -- - - _� - � - - - - - - - - - - - ... - - ...... - � - - - - - - - - ... � - - - -- - � -- - '- - -- -- - - _� = - - - - - - --- ' - - - - � � ~ Page 5 of 5 Specific Plan Amendment No. 2016-140 December 19, 2018 This Ordinance was introduced and read on the fifth day of December 2018, and APPROVED AND ADOPTED this nineteenth day of December, 2018.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan No. 301 is located in the northeast portion of the City of Menifee, south of SR-74, east of Menifee Road, north of Simpson Road and west of Briggs Road. This Third Amendment to the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan No. 301 provides for the development of 4,407 residential units within a 1548.3-acre community in 29 residential planning areas, as shown on Figure ES-i, Land Use Plan - Proposed Specific Plan 301, Amendment 3. Table ES-1, Summary of Changes, shows the changes made by this Specific Plan Amendment No. 3 (SPA No. 3) to each amended planning area. Figure ES-ii, Land Use Plan - Existing Specific Plan 301, Amendment 2, Substantial Conformance 1, shows the existing land use of Specific Plan 301, Amendment No. 2, Substantial Conformance 1. Figure ES-iii, Land Use Plan — Specific Plan Amendment 3 Proposed Changes, shows the existing land use of Specific Plan 301, Amendment No. 2, Substantial Conformance 1 with the proposed changes of Specific Plan 301, Amendment 3 in redline. A.PROJECT HISTORY MENIFEE RANCH Specific Plan No. 301 was adopted by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors on April 29, 1997. The original approved Menifee Ranch Specific Plan provided for the development of 482 residential units on 153 acres. On November 5, 2002, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 1 to Specific Plan 301 and certified EIR No. 423. Amendment No. 1 renamed the specific plan MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH, and amended the adopted Specific Plan No. 301 by adding 1,395.3 acres of property to the north, south, and east of the 153-acre site and provided for the development of 4,063 residential units. However, the project that was approved that day was slightly different from what was considered in the Draft EIR and Traffic Study that was circulated for public review. In the Public Review Draft EIR No. 423 and associated traffic study, the land use plan included three separate commercial sites totaling 32.8 acres (Planning Areas 3, 4, and 41). Subsequent to public review and prior to certification of EIR 423, Riverside County directed several changes to the Land Use Plan. As part of the certification of EIR No. 423, the County made the determination that the Land Use Plan changes did not warrant recirculation of EIR 423 for public review, and that an updated traffic study was not required. Additionally, and as noted above, as part of the County's approval of SP 301A1, a total of 4.8 acres was added to Planning Area 41, increasing the size of Planning Area 41 from 11.6 acres to 16.4 acres. On June 7, 2006, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors adopted Amendment No. 2 to the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan No. 301. Amendment No. 2 amended MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH by replacing the golf course/clubhouse and associated residential uses with open space/recreation (includes a community clubhouse) and active adult housing in Planning Areas 11 and 12. Amendment No. 2 also re-designated the community commercial uses in Planning Area 3 along State Route 74 and Malaga Road to very high density residential uses. Amendment No. 2 increased the approved number of residential units from 4,063 to 4,352.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Additionally, Amendment No. 2 to SP 301 was found to be exempt from the provisions of CEQA and no technical studies, including traffic,were required. In April 2008, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved Substantial Conformance No. 1 to Amendment No. 2 of the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan No. 301. Substantial Conformance No. 1 adjusted planning area boundaries, acreages, and densities within Planning Areas 14, 18 through 20, 22A, 22C, 24, 25, 27C, 32, 39B, and 41 to accommodate development as proposed by Tentative Tract Map No. 34406. Substantial Conformance No. 1 increased the approved number of residential units from 4,352 to 4,359. The County of Riverside made the determination that No Further Environmental Documentation Is Required. On October 1, 2008, the City of Menifee was incorporated and MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH fell within the jurisdiction of the City of Menifee. The City of Menifee has taken no action regarding MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH since incorporation in 2008. The Menifee Valley Ranch Specific Plan is separated into two communities by Matthews Road and the BNSF Railroad tracks, with the northern 606.3- acres known as Minor Ranch, and the southern 977.0 acres known as Heritage Lake. B. SUMMARY OF CHANGES Specific Plan Amendment No. 3 (SPA No. 3) focuses primarily on the Heritage Lake portion of SP 301. Amendment #3 modifies the Specific Plan by splitting Planning Area 41 into two Planning Areas (41A and 41B) and modifies the Land Use Designation of PA 41 from Commercial to Medium-High Density Residential (41A) and Open Space — Recreation (41B) to accommodate Tentative Tract Map No. 37136. TM 37136 proposes 80 single family homes in PA 41A and a 1.1- acre Private Recreation Center/Swimming Pool in PA 41B. Additionally, SPA No. 3 makes other, non-substantive changes throughout the document to reflect the approvals of other Tract Maps and development of other neighborhoods within the Specific Plan which have occurred since approval of Substantial Conformance No.l to Specific Plan Amendment #2, in April, 2008. The addition of 80 units in PA 4 1 A together with the revised unit counts related to the approved Tract Maps results in an overall increase of 48 units to the Specific Plan, as shown on Table ES-1, below.

Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 1-2 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH II. SUMMARY II. SUMMARY A. PROJECT SITE LOCATION The 1,548.3-acre MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project (previously known as Menifee Ranch) is located in the City of Menifee in the southwestern portion of Riverside County, approximately 21 miles southeast of the City of Riverside, 14 miles north of the City of Temecula, two miles east of the City of Perris, and four miles west of the City of Hemet (see Figure II-1, Regional Map). The site is situated in the City of Menifee, east of Interstate 215 and south of State Route 74, between the communities of Homeland and Romoland (see Figure II-2, Vicinity Map). The property is bounded to the west by Menifee Road, to the east by Briggs Road, to the north by State Route 74, and to the south by Simpson Road, and is traversed by McCall Boulevard, McLaughlin Road, and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad. B. PROJECT BACKGROUND The original Menifee Ranch Specific Plan No. 301 was adopted by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors on April 29, 1997. The adopted plan included a mix of residential and non-residential land uses on a 153-acre project site. At build-out, a maximum of 482 single-family detached homes were to be constructed on 104.2 acres. The remaining acreage was designated for non-residential uses, including a commercial/day-care facility, a middle school, parks, parkway greenbelts, and major roads. On December 23, 2002, Amendment No. 1 to Specific Plan No. 301 was adopted by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and added 1,395.3 acres of property to the north, south, and east of the 153-acre site. On June 7, 2006, Amendment No. 2 was adopted by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and amended Specific Plan No. 301 by replacing the golf course/clubhouse and associated residential uses with open space/recreation (includes a community clubhouse) and active adult housing. Amendment No. 2 also re-designated community commercial uses along State Route 74 and Malaga Road with very high density residential uses. On April 30, 2008, Substantial Conformance No. 1 to Amendment No. 2 was adopted by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and adjusted Planning Area boundaries, acreages, and densities within Planning Areas 14, 18 through 20, 22A, 22C, 24, 25, 27C, 32, 39B, and 41 to accommodate development proposed by Tentative Tract Map No. 34406. Substantial Conformance No. 1 decreased the acreage and total number of dwelling units devoted to Medium Density Residential land uses and increased the acreage and total number of dwelling units devoted to Medium High Density Residential land uses. Additionally, Substantial Conformance No. 1 decreased the acreage devoted to commercial, school, greenbelt, and circulation land uses. These changes did not affect the Specific Plan total acreage or maximum number of dwelling units, which remained at 1,548.3 acres and 4,359 units respectively. Amendment No. 3 to the Menifee Valley Ranch Specific Plan (SP 301 A-3) amends Planning Area 41 from 15.4 acres of commercial land use to become two new Planning Areas, Planning Areas 41A and 41 B. Planning Area 41A is 13.9 acres of Medium-High Density Residential land use and 80 dwelling units. Planning Area 41B is designated as Private Recreation Center use and comprises 1.1 acres. Amendment No. 3 amends the Planning Area boundaries, acreages, and/or maximum dwelling units for Planning Areas 15, 16, 17, 21, 22A, 22B, 23, 27A, 27B, 27D, 27E, 27F, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34A, 34B, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 42A, 42B, 42C, and 42E. Planning Area 42D is removed and the Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 II-1 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH II. SUMMARY remaining acreage is allocated to Planning Areas 29 and 30. The acreage devoted to Major Roadways throughout SP 301 A-3 is increased by 1.0 acre, from 92.2 to 93.2 acres. The total acres for SP 301 A-3 remain unchanged at 1,548.3 acres, while the total dwelling units are increased by 48, from 4,359 to 4,407. Although there are 80 dwelling units proposed in Planning Area 41A, the total dwelling units for SP 301 A-3 is only increased by 48 due to the approved Tract Maps and unit changes in the Planning Areas previously mentioned. C. PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project is envisioned as a master planned community, integrating residential, educational, recreational, and open space uses. The MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan assures that the proposed project will be developed in a coordinated manner. Infrastructure and public services, both on-site and off-site, are planned to accommodate the buildout requirements of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH, ensuring that the County's standards for orderly growth are implemented.

SUMMARY E. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 1. REGIONAL SETTING The project site is located in the City of Menifee in Riverside County. The City of Menifee and surrounding areas are bounded by the Santa Ana Mountains to the west and the San Jacinto Mountains to the east. The southern end of the City of Menifee opens into the Murrieta Valley which is enclosed by the Santa Margarita and Agua Tibia Mountains. The Santa Ana Mountains physically separate western Riverside County from Orange County and the Pacific coast, with a limited number of roads traversing the mountains. 2. SURROUNDING LAND USES AND DEVELOPMENT The project lies in an urbanizing area of the City of Menifee in western Riverside County, southeast of the City of Perris and west of unincorporated Riverside County. The project area is surrounded by widely dispersed residential, agricultural and office land uses. Although much of the land surrounding the property remains vacant, several adopted specific plans exist in the vicinity of the project. These specific plans include Menifee North (SP No. 260), Menifee Village (SP No. 158), Menifee East(SP No. 247), and Winchester Hills(SP No. 293). Regionally based commercial and office uses, including grocery stores, banks, restaurants and employment centers are planned within a two-mile radius, as evidenced by Specific Plans such as the Menifee North Specific Plan,the Winchester Hills Specific Plan,the Menifee East Specific Plan, and the Menifee Village Specific Plan. Residents of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH will benefit from living within close proximity to these multi-functional centers. MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH residents have access to the existing commercial centers located approximately two miles west of the community on McCall Boulevard and approximately two miles southwest of the community on Newport Road. i 3. PHYSICAL SITE CONDITIONS The Specific Plan area is generally flat and portions of the site south of Matthews Road have been graded and developed (see Figure II-3, Aerial Photo). Most of the development has primarily occurred in the Heritage Lake portion of the Specific Plan including single-family homes, Heritage Lake Park, neighborhood parks, Mesa View Elementary School, Ethan A. Chase Middle School, and greenbelts. Heritage High School located at the southwestern corner of State Route 74 and Briggs Road in the northeast portion of the community is developed and in use. Roads needed to serve the community, such as McCall Boulevard and Heritage Lake Drive, have been constructed. A small hill or knoll exists on the eastern boundary,just north of the railroad tracks, and represents the maximum elevation of the site (1,622 feet above mean sea level). Although small areas of the Specific Plan have been altered by cultivation, drainage of the northern portion of the site trends generally toward the west while drainage of the southern portion is toward the south. All on-site flows at the Heritage Lake portion of the Specific Plan drain southerly through the lake and/or drainage detention areas and ultimately to the southern portion of the community at the intersection of Lindenberger Road and Simpson Road. Matthews Road crosses the central portion of the community in a northwest to southeast direction, adjacent to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks.

REGIONAL CIRCULATION Southwestern Riverside County is served principally by four freeways. Major east-west circulation is provided by the Riverside Freeway (SR-91) and the Moreno Valley Freeway (SR-60). These freeways connect the area to Los Angeles and Orange Counties to the west and Palm Springs to the east. Major north-south circulation is provided by the Corona Freeway (I-15) and the Escondido Freeway (I-215). These freeways connect the project area to Escondido and San Diego to the south and Riverside and San Bernardino to the north. MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is located approximately two miles east of the 1-215. On- and off-ramps that will provide access to the project from the I-215 exist at SH-74, Bonnie Drive, Ethanac Road, McCall Boulevard, and Newport Road. SR-79 (Winchester Road) is an important north-south regional transportation link, located two and one-half miles east of the project site. 5.

PLANNING OBJECTIVES MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan No. 301 (previously known as MENIFEE RANCH), Amendment No. 3 has been prepared within the framework of a detailed and comprehensive multi- disciplinary planning program. Issues that have been thoroughly examined and considered include: City of Menifee General Plan goals and objectives, local community goals, market acceptance, economic viability, engineering feasibility, and development phasing, together with a sensitive design approach relative to environmental conditions. In order to ensure the functional integrity, environmental compatibility, and positive aesthetic effect of the Specific Plan, specific planning goals and objectives were established and subsequently supported with extensive analysis. With these specific planning goals in mind,this Specific Plan: • Provides for a long-range comprehensive planning approach to development which cannot be accomplished on a parcel-by-parcel basis. ■ Furnishes a plan for development that is sensitive to the environment as well as aesthetically pleasing, and is one that provides for noise suppression, protection of health and safety, and the promotion of the neighborhoods, community, and region. • Considers topographic, geologic, hydrologic, and environmental opportunities and constraints to create a design that essentially conforms to the condition of the land by maintaining and using basic landforms where practical. • Ensures a well-balanced community by incorporating residential, educational, recreational, park, and open space uses into a master-planned development. • Implements housing type diversity by providing a variety of detached single family and active adult residential lots in traditional subdivision layouts and attached multi-family housing that will be marketable within the evolving economic profile of the City of Menifee. • Establishes a project-wide circulation system that meets regional and local transportation needs and accommodates a variety of transportation modes. • Encourages mobility options by providing an extensive network of sidewalks and/or bicycle paths within expanded landscaped parkways adjacent to all major project roads. • Provides a system of public and community facilities, including a lake, two K-8 school sites, a high school site, 151.0 acres of open space/recreation (includes a community clubhouse), a Private Recreation Center, five neighborhood parks, two community parks, and a private swim club/lake parking facility to support development in an efficient and timely manner as well as meet the needs of project residents and residents of surrounding communities. • Establishes schools and parks within walking distance of residential neighborhoods. ■ Reinforces the community identity of the project through control of project design elements such as architecture, landscaping, color, paving, walls, fencing, signage, and entry treatments. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 III.A-1 III. SPECIFIC PLAN MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH A.

Circulation Plan Description The project roadway hierarchy developed for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is illustrated on Figure IILA- 2, Circulation Plan. Primary access to the project site will be provided by State Route 74, McCall Boulevard, Briggs Road, Menifee Road, Simpson Road, and Lindenberger Road. An efficient on-site roadway network accommodates circulation through the project area. Primary north-south circulation through MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH will be provided by Menifee Road and Briggs Road, and by the proposed realignment of Malaga Road. Primary east-west circulation will be provided by State Route 74 and Simpson Road, and by the proposed realignments of McCall Boulevard and McLaughlin Road. Heritage Lake Drive forms a loop roadway through the southern portion of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. The main objective of the Circulation Plan is to provide direct and convenient access to individual residential neighborhoods, school sites, and parks through a safe and efficient network of roadways. A hierarchical system of roadway classifications has been established within the Circulation Plan in accordance with the City of Menifee General Plan Circulation Element. Roadway classifications consist o£ expressway corridor, urban arterial, major highway, secondary highway, enhanced collector, collector, and local. Roadway cross sections are depicted on Figures IIIA-3 through III.A- 8,Roadway Cross Sections. Transportation infrastructure funding may be provided through a combination of developer financing, community facilities or assessment district bond sales, and developer fees. The type of funding for specific facilities will be determined at a later date in conjunction with all cooperating agencies, including the City of Menifee. The project developer shall construct full median improvements on perimeter roadways surrounding MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH through a reimbursement agreement with the City of Menifee providing for reimbursement of one-half of the median construction costs. The City of Menifee General Plan Circulation Element, Exhibit C-3, Roadway Network, depicts existing and City-planned roads that run through the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project area.

DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS 4. OPEN SPACE AND RECREATION PLAN a. Open Space and Recreation Plan Description An important element of the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan Amendment is the Open Space and Recreation Plan. The plan provides a variety of recreational opportunities which all residents of the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH community may enjoy. The project proposes areas for active and passive recreational opportunities, including 151.0 acres of open space/recreation (includes a community clubhouse), a Private Recreation Center, five neighborhood parks, two community parks, a lake, with private swim club/lake parking facility, detention areas, landscaped greenbelts, paseos and open space. In all, 380.7 acres (or 24 percent) of the project site have been set aside for open space and recreational uses. The overall Open Space and Recreation Plan concept is illustrated on Figure IIIA-9, Open Space and Recreation Plan. The elements and acreage of the program are further identified in Table III.A-3, Open Space and Recreation Plan Summary. Descriptions of each of the open space and recreation elements for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH follow. (1) Community and Neighborhood Parks i Typically, the City requires 3.0 acres of parkland for each 1,000 residents to satisfy Quimby Act standards, as expressed in Chapter 9.55 of the City's Municipal Code. The required parkland for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is calculated as follows. Using a population factor(which is derived from Resolution No. 16-514) of 3.164 persons per single-family dwelling unit, 2.105 persons per active/adult senior housing unit, 2.763 persons per regular multi-family dwelling units, and 1.383 persons per senior multi- family dwelling units for the 4,407 dwelling units proposed for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH would generate a population of 12,820 residents. At 3.0 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH would be required to provide 64.1 acres of active use park land. MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH significantly exceeds this standard by providing a total of 70.8 acres of public parkland, consisting of 43.1 acres of community parks and 27.7 acres of neighborhood park uses. At the discretion of the school district(s), recreation facilities adjacent to parks also may be available for community use during non-school hours, which would increase the amount of recreational facilities available to project residents. In addition to these required areas, the project also provides another 305.5 acres of land devoted to open space/recreation (includes a community clubhouse), a Private Recreation Center, a lake, open space, detention areas, greenbelts and roadway paseos, and private swim club/lake parking facility, all of which provide active and passive recreational opportunities. Five neighborhood parks and two community parks, totaling 70.8 acres are planned for Planning Areas 5A, 513, 9, 21, 2213, 26, and 37. The parks offer a variety of active and passive recreational opportunities. For Planning Areas 5A and 513, neighborhood parks consist of 4.9 and 3.3 acres, respectively. For Planning Area 9, a 23.0-acre community park is provided, adjacent to the high school in Planning Area 8. For Planning Area 21, a 20.1-acre community park feature is provided adjacent to the K-8 Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IIIA-26 TIL SPECIFIC PIAN MENim VALLEY RA,%cH A.Dw -GmM PIA MDSTAKMWF PA J2A P.,L Jl• r r �rtx 1 ..�.Jxr I7 �In —PA.170 jt -. r 7 P.A.39A P.A.llf: P.A-3s OF =THE R OIN PLATTING AREA 3]COASIST9 DETENTION BLY ATE60ACRES,WITHA DETE\'TION ASIN.IREAOFfNTOJ J,\CRSS Parks �Open Space ®Swim Club(Private Facility) _SPA3,U.LOF TED ACREAGE FROM PLaNNm'c,U2En 42D TD PL-G,REAS Ceen�Jel is Open Space/Meadows Schools 39�\D Je PER Tip\I JO]Ok o' 2ao� Drainagsand Detention lake Recreation Center I'd-.Facility) Figurr No.IIIA-11,1 OPEN SPACE AND RECREATION Specific Plan No 301,Amendment Na 3 IIEA27 III.

Drainage Plan Description The MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Specific Plan Amendment project site lies within the boundaries of the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (RCFCD), and is subject to drainage fees. The RCFCD fee drainage areas that encompass the site include the: Homeland/Romoland Area Drainage Plan, Salt Creek Channel Area Drainage Plan, and the proposed Winchester/West Winchester Area Drainage Plan, as shown on Figure III.A-10, Regional Drainage Plan. (1) Existing Conditions Drainage for the northern portion of the undeveloped project site flows toward the west, while drainage for the southern portion flows toward the south. The southern portion of the site accepts drainage from the area to the west and northeast. The undeveloped runoff(Q) coming into this portion of the site enters in a sheet flow manner. In the northern portion, the existing flows coming into the site from the east enter in a sheet-flow manner and are approximated by the Master Drainage Plan volume (Q) of 3,810 cfs. The developed runoff, as approximated by the District, is 3,930 cfs at the westerly boundary of the property at the main proposed drainage device called Line "A." Beyond the westerly boundary of the project, the flows continue to travel westerly toward the I-215 freeway. Approximately 2,000 feet downstream of Menifee Road at proposed Line "A" there exists a small train trestle under which the runoff must flow. Existing runoff projected for this area are approximately 4,510 cfs. (2) Proposed Improvements The project's drainage plan solutions will differ somewhat from RCFCD's proposed Master Drainage Plan. Once approved, these changes will be reflected in the amended Area Drainage Plan. The area southerly of Line "A" and northerly of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad tracks will drain generally to Line "A". Minor detention basins will be designed into the golf course as a means of detaining flows before joining Line "A". The remaining area southerly of the BNSF Railroad tracks will drain into a large lake, serving as a retention/detention basin. Water elevations in the lake will be controlled by the use of a low-flow outlet channel that will drain from the lake southerly to the intersection of Simpson Road and Lindenberger Road. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 III.A-32 III. SPECIFIC PLAN MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH A. DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS Current RCFCD regulations require that the rate of storm runoff to adjacent properties not be increased as a result of development. As development occurs, the construction of roadways, parking facilities and structures increases the amount of impervious surfaces within the project preventing rainfall from natural percolation into native soils. By conveying flows in roadbeds and pipelines, the time of conveyance of the flow is shortened as compared to flow in natural watercourses. The result of these two occurrences is an increase in the rate of the storm runoff that discharges at the project limits. This difference in the rate of runoff must therefore be managed on-site through the use of detention basins which will be designed to accept the increased flow and discharge only the rate of flow prior to development at all locations discharging from the project. The drainage system is designed to utilize the natural drainage patterns and courses to the maximum extent possible, while providing required erosion control and 100-year flood protection. The open space system for the project has been designed to provide detention areas that will be used to reduce run-off resulting from development of the site to pre-development levels where drainage leaves the project site. The plan has been designed to minimize drainage diversions.No diversion or alteration of drainage patterns is contemplated in conjunction with project development. The proposed on-site lake will provide both retention and detention, with an additional retention basin found adjacent to the project boundaries at Briggs Road, south of Highway 74. The construction cost of this additional basin would be covered by the overall CFD, with the maintenance provided by the Riverside County Flood Control District. The final size and location of all the required drainage systems will ultimately be determined at the tract map stage of development, per the requirements of the City of Menifee and RCFCD. The pipe sizes noted on Figure 111.A-11, Master Drainage Plan are based upon a preliminary hydrologic analysis and are therefore preliminary and for use in development planning only. The northern portion and the southeast corner of the project site are located within a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Zone A flood hazard designation, which denotes areas of 100-year flood, base food elevations and flood hazard factors not determined. Other than this natural flooding condition, there are no dams, rivers, creeks or washes which directly affect the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH site. b. Drainage Plan Development Standards (1) Drainage and flood control facilities and improvements, including any necessary channelization, shall be provided in accordance with RCFCD and City of Menifee requirements. (2) Facilities 39" or larger in diameter to be constructed in road rights-of-way and drainage easements will be maintained by the RCFCD or the Riverside County Transportation. Facilities 36" and smaller to minimum size 18"to be constructed in road rights-of-way and drainage easements will be maintained by the City of Menifee. Local drainage devices not located in roadway right-of-ways will be maintained by a Master Homeowners' Association, the City of Menifee, Valley Wide Recreation and Park District, or the RCFCD. Maintenance responsibilities for local drainage facilities will be determined upon filing of individual tract maps. (3) All projects proposing construction activities including: clearing, grading, or excavation that results in the disturbance of at least five acres of total land area, or activity which is Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 III.A-33 III. SPECIFIC PLAN MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH A. DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS part of a larger common plan of development of five acres or greater shall obtain the appropriate NPDES construction permit and pay the appropriate fees.

WATER,RECLAIMED WATER,AND SEWER PLANS MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is within the Eastern Municipal Water District's (EMWD) service area for water,reclaimed water, and sewer. E a. Water Plan Description EMWD will be the primary provider of domestic water through build-out of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. The existing domestic waterlines, shown on Figure IILA-12,Master Water Plan, are owned and operated in accordance with EMWD's Regional Facilities Plan dated 1990. The project falls within two water pressure zones established by EMWD: the 1627 Pressure Zone which encompasses MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH south of Matthews Road, and the 1693 Ellis Pressure Zone which encompasses MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH north of Matthews Road. The 1627 Perris Valley Pressure Zone is served by the Menifee Village reservoir,which consists of a five-million gallon tank located west of Menifee Road at Simpson Road. The Menifee Village reservoir will be able to provide primary both domestic and fire protection service throughout this zone. The 1693 Pressure Zone is presently being supplied from other zones. At this time, the 1693 Ellis Pressure Zone has no reserve storage capacity. The 1693 Pressure Zone will be raised to a 1719 high water level when a new storage reservoir is constructed. Several existing EMWD water lines are present within and adjacent to the project site, as shown on Figure IIIA-12, Master Water Plan. Existing EMWD water lines include: 30", 27", and 12" mains in Menifee Road; a 27" main in Lindenberger Road; 27" and 24" mains in Simpson Road; a 12" main in McCall Boulevard; 16" and 12" mains in State Highway 74; and 12" mains in Briggs Road, McLaughlin Road and Malaga Road. The proposed on-site lines, shown on Figure IIIA-12, Master Water Plan, include: a 12" main in Grand Avenue at Briggs Road which connects to a 12" main through the southern portions of Heritake Lake Drive and Heritage Lake Drive to the existing 27" main in the western half of Grand Avenue, and realignment of the 12" main in McCall Boulevard. The average annual domestic water demand for the proposed project is estimated to be approximately 2,401,380 gallons per day(mgd). b. Reclaimed Water Plan Description The Perris Valley Regional Water Reclamation Facility (P.V.R.W.R.F.), located east of 1-215 in the community of Romoland, is the closest existing source of reclaimed water to the subject site. Existing reclaimed water lines, shown on Figure IIIA-12, Master Water Plan, include: a 48" line from Matthews Road (off site) to Briggs Road, then south to Grand Avenue. The line in Matthews Road is currently used to transport reclaimed water from various treatment facilities in the area to EMWD ponds. The water in this line has already been tertiary treated. EMWD's current policy for the requirement of using reclaimed water on-site is that any project with a golf course, would require reclaimed water for the irrigation system. Pipelines will need to be built from existing pipelines to the irrigation areas. The amount of recycled water available to the subject property will be determined as the project nears development and prior to service. Estimates of potential irrigation demands will be used to size the needed pipelines to plan for the supply of recycled water. The design and construction of off-site and on-site reclaimed water system improvements will be necessary in order to accomplish the delivery of reclaimed water to the project. The actual sizes and location of these lines will be determined at the tract map stage of development in conjunction with EMWD's requirements.

MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is located within the Winchester Regional Water Reclamation Facility (WRWRF) waste watershed area. Sewage generated from the project site will be conveyed to the upgraded Perris Valley Regional Water Reclamation Facility. In order to provide for interceptor sewers from the project site to the Perris Valley Regional Treatment Plant, construction of off-site gravity trunk lines will be required. These lines will extend from the southerly property boundary within Grand Avenue, then head south along Lindenberger Road, before turning east in Simpson Road and eventually connecting to the Winchester Lift Station located at the corner of Simpson and Ventina Roads. The proposed MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project would generate an estimated average daily wastewater flow of 1,366,595 gallons per day(gpd) at build-out, Summary of Estimated Wastewater Flows. Existing sewer lines, shown on Figure IIIA-13, Master Sewer Plan, include: two 20" force mains in Grand Avenue (off site), Briggs Road, and eastern Matthews Road; a 24" gravity main in Matthews Road; a 15" gravity main in McLaughlin Road: and 12" gravity mains in Briggs Road and McLaughlin Road(off site). The proposed wastewater collection facilities which will serve the project area are shown on Figure IILA-13, Master Sewer Plan. The proposed sewer mains include: an 18" gravity main in Lindenberger Road; 12" gravity main in Heritage Lake Drive; a 15" gravity main in Grand Avenue East at Briggs Road which connects to a 15" gravity main in Heritage Lake Drive; and realignment of the 15" gravity main in McLaughlin Road. d.

Grading Plan Description The grading plan for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH, shown on Figure IILA-14, Conceptual Grading Plan, is tailored to the existing topography of the project site. The existing terrain is comparatively level over most of the site ranging from a low elevation of approximately 1,443 feet above mean sea level (msl) to a high elevation of 1,622 feet above msl. It is intended that proposed site grading be sensitive to natural landforms. According to an earthwork quantity study conducted by the project engineer, grading is expected to balance on-site. Based on the Conceptual Grading Plan, approximately 0.4 million cubic yards of material will be moved to accommodate development of the site. This quantity may vary as final grading plans are developed. The Conceptual Grading Plan has been designed to accommodate drainage and a street system that meets County of Riverside standards for acceptable infrastructure gradients. b. Grading Plan Development Standards (1) All grading activities shall conform to City of Menifee standards, shall be in substantial conformance with the overall Figure IIIA-14, Conceptual Grading Plan. (2) Grading shall conform to City of Menifee regulations. If City requirements conflict with the project's Conceptual Grading Plan,the City regulations shall take precedence. (3) Prior to any development within any planning area of the Specific Plan, an overall Conceptual Grading Plan for the planning area in process may be requested for Community Development Department approval. The Grading Plan for each planning area should be used as a guideline for subsequent detailed grading plans for individual stages of development within that planning area, and shall include: techniques employed to prevent erosion and sedimentation as well as eliminate source pollutants during and after the grading process; approximate time frames for grading; identification of areas which may be graded during high probability rain months (January through March); and preliminary pad and roadway elevations. Grading work shall be balanced on- site whenever possible. (4) All streets shall have a gradient not to exceed 15 percent. (5) Prior to initial grading activities, a detailed soils report and geotechnical study shall be prepared to analyze on-site soil conditions and slope stability and shall include appropriate measures to control erosion and dust. Slopes steeper than 2:1 or exceeding ten feet (10') in vertical height are allowed provided they are recommended to be safe in a slope stability report prepared by a soils engineer or an engineering geologist. The slope stability report shall also contain recommendations for landscaping and erosion control. Where cut and fill slopes are created higher than three feet (3'), 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. (6) The applicant shall be responsible for maintenance and upkeep of all planting and irrigation systems until those operations are the responsibilities of other parties. (7) Grading work shall be balanced on-site whenever possible.

(10) Unless otherwise approved by the City, 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 contouring intended to control slope erosion. (11) A grading permit shall be obtained from the City of Menifee prior to grading. (12) If any historic or prehistoric remains are discovered during grading, a qualified archaeologist shall be consulted to ascertain their significance. (13) Soil stabilizers shall be used to control dust as required by SCAQMD Rule 403. (14) Pursuant to requirements of the State Water Resources Control Board, a State-wide general National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) construction permit will apply to construction activities associated with the proposed project. Construction activities include cleaning, grading, or excavation that results in the disturbance of at least five acres of total land area or activity which is part of a larger common plan of development of five acres or greater. Therefore, the developer or builder for MENIF'EE VALLEY RANCH shall be required to obtain the appropriate State NPDES permits prior to commencing grading activities.

Project Phasing Plan Description MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is to be developed in six(6)phases over an approximate 10-year to 15-year period, in response to market demands and according to a logical and orderly extension of roadways, public utilities, and infrastructure. The development phasing is illustrated on Figure III.A-15, Conceptual Phasing Plan, and Table IIIA-4,Project Phasing Plan. b. Schools and Parks Phasing To ensure timely development of public facilities, a Conceptual Phasing Plan has been prepared for the proposed park and school sites. Public facility construction shall be phased as provided by Table III.A-5,Public Facilities Phasing. C. Sewer and Water Phasing An agreement with the Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) shall be made in writing which states that the provision of services to any implementing project shall be available prior to the recordation of any tract maps. i I d. Transportation Phasing The project phasing shall ensure that the following provisions are met: (1) Traffic impact reports shall be required with submittal of tentative tract maps or plot plans as required by the City of Menifee. The required format for each traffic impact study report will be determined by the City. The required format will include evaluation of peak hour conditions at intersections significantly impacted by each phase of development. (2) If an impacted intersection is estimated to exceed City service level standards, then appropriate link and intersection improvements shall be required to be presented for City staff review. (3) The improvements needed to maintain the City service level standards will be required to be in place prior to occupancy of the relevant development phase. Because off-site improvements are generally needed to serve area-wide growth, an area-wide fee program should be established to implement General Plan roadway improvements. Without a district or fee program available, the proposed project is responsible for providing the off-site improvements necessary for adequate circulation at each project phase.

SPECIFIC PLAN MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH A. DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS e. Project Phasing Standards (1) Prior to recordation of any final subdivision map, improvement plans for the respective landscaped areas and/or plans to mitigate an environmental impact for the respective tract, shall be submitted to the City Community Development Department for approval. The improvement plans shall include: • Final Grading Plan • Irrigation Plans(certified by a landscape architect) ■ Fence Treatment Plans • Special Treatment/Buffer Area Treatment Plans • Landscape Plans (with seed mixes for mulching, staking methods, and locations, type, size, and quantity of plant materials) (2) Each planning area shall include development of adjacent common open space areas, landscape development zones, and applicable infrastructure. (3) Construction of the development permitted hereby, including recordation of final sub- division maps, may be done progressively in stages, in Phase I, II, III, IV, V, or VI provided vehicular access, public facilities, and infrastructure is constructed to adequately service the dwelling units or as needed for public health and safety in each stage of development and further provided that such phase of development conforms substantially with the intent and purpose of the Specific Plan Phasing Program. (4) The phasing sequence described herein is conceptual based on current market demand. Certain planning areas may be developed out of the expected sequence, or in smaller increments, provided the required infrastructure and services are available at the time of development.

Landscaping Plan Descriptions The landscaping plan provides a general description and development standards for the landscaping concept for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. A more detailed description of the landscaping concept is provided in Section IV, Design Guidelines. The Landscaping Plan, illustrated on Figure IV-1, Conceptual Landscape Plan, will establish an overall theme that will help to create a strong sense of community. The design concept for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH will incorporate a California Ranch landscape theme. Characteristic elements of this theme include: generous landscape common areas and strong, rich landscape materials such as river rock, boulder outcrops, clusters and groves of trees, wood materials, earth tone colors, and a diversity of material. The community entries and theme intersections will provide a continuity that establishes the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH area and boundaries. Entry monumentation will provide initial definition for the site at key access points. Once within the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH community, monumentation will continue to be used at all key intersections. The entries and intersections will be developed in a hierarchical format that reinforces a sense of place within the community. Primary community entries will lead to secondary community entries which in turn lead to neighborhood entries. Neighborhood entries will provide initial identification for each residential planning area. Individual neighborhoods and residential development enclaves will be distinguished by varied planting themes that will serve to complement and reinforce the overall project theme. Special treatments, including land use transition areas, will be provided between certain planning areas, as identified in Section III.13,Planning Area Development Standards. Landscaping also serves as a buffer between land uses. Community walls and fences a major visual element that helps unify the appearance of the community. Roadway streetscapes are critical to maintaining a cohesive community theme. Streetscapes will be used to identify the hierarchy of the community's roadway system. b. Landscaping Plan Development Standards (1) All detailed landscaping programs for planning areas and roadways shall be prepared by a qualified and licensed landscape architect for review by City staff and applicable decision-making agencies. (2) Project entries shall be designed with landscaping and architectural treatments that project a high quality image for the community development. (3) The landscaping design for the project site shall include trees, shrubs, and ground cover compatible with existing natural vegetation where feasible. (4) Special treatment areas shall be designed to provide definition to certain planning areas, as identified in Section III.13,Planning Area Development Standards. (5) Major entrance roads into MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH shall have entry monumentation and landscaped shoulders to define the project's design concept. The introductory Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 III.A-50 III. SPECIFIC PLAN MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH A. DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS landscape theme shall include elements such as tree clustering to reinforce the project theme and character. (6) Planted raised medians (according to Engineering Standard Details and City Ordinance No. 461) 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 (7) Prior to approval of any final subdivision map, improvement plans for the respective landscaped areas shall be submitted to the City 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 Landscaping Plan with seed mixes for mulching and staking methods; locations,types, size and quantity of plants • Fence Treatment Plans • Special Treatment/Buffer Area Treatment Plans (8) The applicant and/or master developer shall be responsible for maintenance and upkeep of all slope planting, 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 final subdivision which contains a common open space area, the applicant and/or developer shall convey such areas to the appropriate maintenance agency. (10) The landscaping plan shall reflect the following water conservation methods, whenever feasible: landscape with plants that require minimal amounts of water, group plants of similar water use to reduce over-irrigation of low water using plants; use mulch extensively, because mulch applied on top of soil will improve the water holding capacity of the soil by reducing evaporation and soil compaction; and install efficient irrigation systems that minimize runoff and evaporation and maximize the water that will reach the plant roots. Drip irrigation, soil moisture sensors, and automatic irrigation systems are a few methods of increasing irrigation efficiency. (11) The project applicant and/or developer shall comply with the planting, irrigation, implementation, and model home requirements set forth by City Municipal Code Section 9.86 and 15.04. (12) The irrigation system in common open space areas shall be designed to accommodate future use of reclaimed water when made available by the water district. 10. COMPREHENSIVE MAINTENANCE PLAN Successful operation of maintenance districts and associations is important in maintaining quality in a project area. It is anticipated that maintenance responsibilities for public roadways will be maintained by the County through the Transportation Department. Other common project facilities may be divided among a Master Homeowners' Association, Neighborhood Associations,Valleywide Park and Recreation District, City of Menifee and/or similar maintenance mechanisms. Final Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 III.A-51 I1I. SPECIFIC PLAN MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH A. DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS decisions regarding maintenance entities shall be made at a future stage of project design review and in concert with County agencies. For a summary of maintenance responsibilities see Table IIIA-6, Maintenance Plan. a. Master Homeowners' Association A Master Homeowner's Association is neither anticipated nor required, but is an accepted mechanism for maintenance if desired by the builder or developer. Common areas identified in the Specific Plan may be owned and maintained by a permanent public or private master maintenance organization, to assume ownership and maintenance responsibility for all common recreation, open space, private circulation systems and landscape areas. Areas of responsibility may include open space, project signage, private recreation facilities, and landscape areas located along the project roadways. 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, common open space areas and potential private roadways exemplify facilities that may come under the jurisdiction of a neighborhood association. C. Project Roadways All public project roadways and private streets will be designed and constructed to standards acceptable to the City of Menifee. Parkway greenbelts (otherwise referred to as LDZ's) will be maintained either by a Valleywide Park and Recreation District, a Master Homeowner's Association, City of Menifee or other maintenance entity. d. Schools It is anticipated that maintenance responsibilities for the three school sites will be overseen by the Romoland School District and Perris Union High School District.

PLANNING AREA DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Development standards and zoning regulations for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH have been established at three levels: Development Plans and Standards, which were addressed in Section III.A; Design Guidelines, which are provided in Section IV; and Planning Area Development Standards, to which this section is devoted. Planning areas were formed on the basis of logical, separate units of development. Criteria considered in this process included the following: uniformity of use as it pertains to zoning, relationship to adjoining product, and relationship to surrounding topography. The planning area graphics for this section were derived from Figures III.A-lA and III.A-1B, Specific Land Use Plan. Table II1.13-1, Planning Area Land Use Summary, describes the specific uses planned for each planning area. 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, Design Guidelines, it is anticipated that actual lotting will not be determined until the tract map stage. A Specific Plan Zoning Ordinance was prepared and submitted separately from this Specific Plan document. The zoning provisions within that ordinance establish use restrictions for each planning area. The zoning provisions should be used in conjunction with the planning standards for each respective planning area. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 III.B-1 III.

The photographs and graphics are not intended to represent any actual building or parcel design. I The design components presented in this document are provided for informational purposes and are to be used in identifying the desired design composition for the residential buildings within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. It is not the intent of these Design Guidelines to require that all the represented design components be incorporated into the design proposals as shown.Rather,they are provided as a"palette" of character defining elements that should be reflected in the residential housing design proposals. Builders and their architects,planners and landscape architects are encouraged to utilize creativity and imagination when developing exciting design proposals which will be implemented within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. C. DESIGN REVIEW A Design Review Board will be established for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH, consisting of the project master developer and/or their representatives. Design guidelines will be used by the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Design Review Board and City staff to determine the conformance of each builder's design proposal to the overall community design objectives. In some instances, modifications may have been made to some City codes as a result of approval of this Specific Plan. In such instances,the approved modified code as stated in this approved Specific Plan document shall prevail. Unless otherwise modified by this Specific Plan,no modification to applicable federal,state or city codes and ordinances are intended. If conflicts do arise,the more restrictive requirement will prevail. These Design Guidelines are to be used in conjunction with the other requirements and standards specified in this Specific Plan(City of Menifee Specific Plan No.301). These guidelines are intended to allow each residential planning area within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH to establish an individual identity, yet blend in with the overall community theme. To that end, builders and designers are encouraged to Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-2 1 l MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH F T. DESIGN GUIDELINES review the entire Specific Plan document to examine the relationship of each residential planning area to the overall community design goals. Prior to the submittal of any plans and specifications by the residential builder to the City of Menifee for review and approval, the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Design Review Board will review and approve all plans and specifications associated with the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project. This review process may consider, among other things: • Individual lot development and variation in setbacks; • Conformity and harmony of architectural design and design features within the community theme; + Architectural facing of all elevations(four-sided architecture); • Color and material composition of homes; • Roofing types, color and materials; + Variations of architectural treatment and color between neighboring houses along individual residential streets; • Streetscape and landscape treatment within residential neighborhoods; and • Neighborhood walls and fences; After initial concept approval of any submitted plans and specifications,but prior to final approval by the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Design Review Board,additional design modifications or requirements may be imposed by the Design Review Board in an effort to ensure design compatibility within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH and consistency with these design guidelines. The Design Review Board members shall not be liable for damages to any person submitting plans or specifications for approval,by reason of mistake in judgment, negligence, lack feasibility or failure to approve or disapproval any such plans or specifications,or for any injury or damage caused by any improvements constructed from such plans and specifications. In additional to the requirements outlined in these guidelines, the design and development of each residential planning area must conform to all applicable federal, state and city building requirements, regulations, ordinances, laws and fire codes. In those instances where various regulations are over- lapping,the more restrictive regulation shall apply. It is the intent of these guidelines to establish a consistent building architectural and landscape architectural theme for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH while allowing for flexibility of design expression by the individual builders and their design teams. It is the responsibility of all builders,architects,landscape architects and related consultants to recognize the importance of the creative use of colors and materials and the role they play in developing visually attractive residential architecture and the resulting neighborhood environment. It is not intended that the builder be limited to the materials and colors identified in this document. Rather,these descriptions are to be used as guidelines for the development of their own composition and selections. Building materials and colors will be subject to review and approval by the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Design Review Board. The builders and design teams should explore and present to the Design Review Board for review a variety of material and color palettes for their individual residential projects appropriate to a selected architectural style and today's contemporary market. This type of design exploration is encouraged. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-3 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES D. COMMUNITY ELEMENTS I. PROJECT THEME The MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH community site lies across a flat valley trending north to south,formed by dramatic,rocky hills. The main approach to MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH from the west via McCall Boulevard is a dramatic downhill drive. This will begin a series of impressions of the community which will help define the success of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH in complimenting the surrounding natural and manmade environments. Several key issues have been addressed in the design concept for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. They include the following: • Develops a"California Ranch"style landscape theme with generous landscape common areas and strong,rich landscape materials including river rock stone,boulder outcrops, clusters and groves of trees,wood materials, earthtone colors and diversity of material. ■ Incorporates a recreational theme which is clear, identifiable and properly serves the needs of the community. • Places a premium on pedestrian and non-motorized circulation throughout the community and between recreational elements. • Considers resource and long term maintenance efficiency in the selection of planting materials and placement. Helps create a strong"sense of community"through landscape design elements. 2. PROJECT ENTRIES AND THEME INTERSECTIONS The entries and intersections within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH establish the design theme for the community by reinforcing the design hierarchy and by providing a reassurance of the community areas and boundaries. These features are created through a thematic blend of hardscape and planting elements as shown on Figure IV-1, Conceptual Landscape Plan. Figure IV-2, Key to Community Entries, Intersections and Parkway Conditions serves as a reference key for the exhibits within the Design Guidelines.

DESIGN GUIDELINES a. Community Entries MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is bordered by an expressway corridor, urban arterial, major highway and a secondary highway. This allows easy access to the community but also requires a carefully considered hierarchy and treatment of community entries. The entry hierarchy for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH consists of. Primary Community Entry, Secondary Community Entry, and Neighborhood Entry. 1) Primary Community Entries Primary community entries provide a relaxed but strong sense of arrival and identity by utilizing a soft open turf berm, leading to stone cobbled pilasters and a boulder outcrop sign monument. Clustered date palms mixed with evergreen foliage trees and flowering shrubs will evoke the classic City of Menifee ranch scene. The following primary community entries are illustrated on Figures IV-3 through IV-6. a) Malaga Road at SR-74 This entry,shown on Figure IV-3,Primary Community Entry-Malaga Road at SR-74 will provide an introduction to the interior neighborhoods of the north ranch including the open space/recreation. The entry creates a strong identifying presence for the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH community. This entry will be more formal and structurally oriented, while maintaining the community landscape elements of dramatic clustered palms and evergreens. b) McLaughlin Road at Menifee Road This entry, shown on Figure IV-4, Primary Community Entry - McLaughlin Road at Menifee Road,also will benefit from the 1-215 freeway interchanges at both McCall Boulevard and SR-74. McLaughlin is the major east/west collector into Minor Ranch and provides access to the high school site, open space/recreation, and interior residential neighborhoods. C) McCall Boulevard at Menifee Road This is the entry, shown on Figure IV-5, Primary Community Entry-McCall Boulevard at Menifee Road, benefits from its access to 1-215 and from the central location in the Heritage Lake area. McCall Boulevard provides access to the central greenbelt and lake area and to Heritage Lake Drive,which accesses schools, parks, and all neighborhoods. d) Lindenberger Road at Simpson Road This entry, shown on Figure IV-6, Primary Community Entry -Lindenberger Road at Simpson Road, will be an important portal for traffic accessing the community from the 1-215 interchange at Newport Road. The adjacent park site will be incorporated into the entry by providing an open space backdrop consistent with the landscape theme of the community. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-7 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES 2) Secondary Community Entries These entries, shown on Figure IV-7, Secondary Community Entry, occur along the Menifee Road and Briggs Road. They will be smaller-scale versions of the primary community entries,and will contain secondary-level sign monuments,theme walls and pilasters,and simple attractive evergreen and deciduous tree planting and accent shrubs set behind a simple turf berm. These entries will provide for efficient community access to residential enclaves and other community elements. 3) Neighborhood Entries These entries, shown on Figure IV-8, Neighborhood Entry, will be the primary residential enclave access for marketing the separate residential products within MENwEE VALLEY RANCH. These entries will occur from the internal road system, and will be determined through the separate future planning of each enclave per City of Menifee planning design standards and this Specific Plan. 4) Design Guidelines for Street Medians a) For residential tract entry roads which come to a"Tee"intersection with the first intersecting street within the tract,a landscaped entry median at least ten feet in width (curb to curb), including landscaping six feet in width, and 20 feet in length is required. The median shall be up-lighted and landscaped with turf, trees, shrubs, and flowers. Stamped concrete (or an acceptable alternative) roadways shall be constructed on both sides of the entry median from median curb to entry road curb, along the entire length of the entry median. b) For residential tract entry roads which are through streets beyond the first intersecting street within the tract,a landscaped entry median at least six feet in width (curb to curb), including landscaping four feet in width, and ten feet in length is required. The median shall be heavily landscaped with turf, trees, shrubs, and flowers. Stamped concrete roadways shall be constructed on both sides of entry medians from median curb to entry road curb, along the entire length of the entry median. C) Also,a minimum transition distance of 3 5 feet from the flowline/curb face of the entry road to the nose of the entry median shall be provided.

DESIGN GUIDELINES Simple identification signage and an individualized landscape theme will be allowed. Signage may be permanent or temporary and is subject to review and approval by the master community developer. The signage and landscape materials must be compatible with and complimentary to the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH landscape design theme. Flexibility within this framework will allow visual diversity and individualization ofthe residential neighborhoods. The residential enclave access points along Menifee Road, Briggs Road and Simpson Road provide safe,convenient access to neighborhood areas but will not be utilized for residential sales programs. b. Theme Intersection Several key intersections within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH have been identified as places where the community theme will be reassured. These theme intersections, shown on Figures IV-9 through IV-11 will be treated with turf berms and planting clusters similar to the primary community entries but on a more subdued scale. Theme intersections will occur at the intersections of Malaga Road and McLaughlin Road; McCall Boulevard and Heritage Lake Drive; and McCall Boulevard and Heritage Lake Drive. 3. STREETSCAPES Roadway streetscapes in MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH are critical in maintaining the perception,unification, and quality of a community theme. These common landscape areas link vehicular and pedestrian traffic to neighborhoods and community elements. The streetscapes in MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH are treated as critical community spaces by providing high- quality vehicular and pedestrian circulation routes, including both jogging paths and well-buffered pedestrian paths. A series of parkway/roadway paseos are planned alongside all major project roads. These roadway paseos will feature meandering or parallel sidewalks in a landscaped setting. The purpose of these roadway paseos is threefold:(1)to enhance the community streetscape character;(2)to provide additional separation between the neighborhood edges and the principal roadways; and(3)to allow for greater pedestrian and bicycle mobility. Shrubs and low groundcovers will be used to the greatest extent feasible to reduce maintenance, conserve resources, and provide a buffered separation between pedestrians and vehicular traffic. Bike lanes are on-street Class II to both minimize conflicts with pedestrian traffic and provide a better travelway for these multi-speed conveyances. The bike trail and pedestrian path system within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is shown on Figure III.A-9B,Non-Vehicular Circulation Plan. Streetscape landscape treatments have been developed to form a hierarchy of community importance and use characteristics. The streetscape hierarchy for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH consists of: Expressway Corridor, Urban Arterial Streetscape, Major Streetscape, Secondary Streetscape, Enhanced Collector Streetscape,Collector Streetscape and Local Road Streetscape.Landscaped parkways have been enlarged beyond City street right-of-way dimensions to reinforce this hierarchy, consistent with the pathway system,residential orientation,and traffic volumes. These"landscape development zone"(LDZ)widths are indicated on the streetscape sections.

DESIGN GUIDELINES The MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH design concept is focused on the use of earthtone materials and colors, meandering drifts and groves of plant materials and trees,and the limited but appropriate use of turf. To be avoided,will be soldiered trees at uniform spacing, except where orchard or citrus grove effects are desired. The use of this uniform grove effect will be limited. a. Expressway Corridor,Urban Arterial,Major and Secondary Streetseapes 1) State Route 74, Menifee Road, Briggs Road, and Simpson Road MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is bounded by Menifee Road to the west, SR-74 to the north, Simpson Road to the south,and Briggs Road to the east. These streetscapes,shown on Figures IV-12A,IV-12D,IV-12E,and IV-12F,have been designed to provide additional landscape area beyond the street right-of-way while also providing consistency with adjacent proposed or approved projects where applicable. These perimeter streetscapes will allow reasonable buffering and the appropriate landscape treatments to properly introduce the community, while maintaining consistency along the overall expressway corridor, urban arterial, major or secondary highway streetscape. MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is planned to focus internally. 2) McCall Boulevard and McLaughlin Road McCall Boulevard and McLaughlin Road,the two east/west trending major roadways have relatively balanced but generous landscape zones beyond the respective right-of- ways,as shown on Figures IV-12B,IV-12C,IV-12CC,and IV-12G. McCall Boulevard includes a landscaped center median island to reinforce its role as the key access point to major community elements. McLaughlin Road parallels the east/west drainage greenbelt through Minor Ranch,which provides a significant opportunity for additional landscape treatment,buffered pedestrian paths and residential buffer. Both streets include a single decomposed granite jogging path on one side in addition to concrete paths that are on both sides. McCall Boulevard offers a quality pedestrian system that provides a meandering concrete path separated from the street curb by a minimum 8' foot wide planting strip on both sides. McCall Boulevard includes 8-foot Class II bike lanes on both sides of the right-of-way to provide residents with bikeways and connectivity within Heritage Lake.McLaughlin Road offers a 6'min landscape setback on the north side of the road only. The jogging path runs parallel or adjacent to the meandering concrete path on the north side only. 3) Malaga Road, north of McLaughlin Road Malaga Road,north of McLaughlin Road,serves as an important access point to Minor Ranch,which provides an opportunity for the landscape treatment shown on Figure IV- 12H. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-19 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES 4) Grand Avenue East, Grand Avenue West and Lindenberger Road Grand Avenue East,Grand Avenue West, and Lindenberger Road are important to the ranch land plan by supporting the major interior roadways of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH and by moving traffic into and out of the individual neighborhoods quickly and efficiently. These streetscapes, shown on Figure IV-12I will include a concrete pathway/sidewalk on each side and a quality landscape zone. b. Enhanced Collector Streetscapes The unique and vital streetscape concept for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is focused on the treatment of the interior collector streetscape. The design of the streetscape provides a strong and significant landscape while providing a variety of pedestrian pathway choices for residents. I) Malaga Road, south of McLaughlin Road Malaga Road, south of McLaughlin Road, serves as both the main access point to the open space/recreation and an important access point to the senior community,which will be enhanced by the landscape treatment shown on Figure IV-12J. 2) Heritage Lake Drive, and Heritage Lake Drive at the Gas Line Easement The streetscape designs for Heritage Lake Drive and Heritage Lake Drive at the Gas Line Easement incorporate bike lanes, jogging paths, concrete pedestrian paths, and sidewalks to link all of the planning areas located within Heritage Lake to parks,school sites, the lake and private swim club facility, and the various greenbelt areas. The Heritage Lake Drive streetscape designs have been specially designed to provide for a greater extensive landscape area on the outside of Heritage Lake Drive, as shown on Figures IV-12K and IV-12L.This 32-foot wide landscape area provides a concrete path and adjacent jog path which are set a minimum of eight feet away from the street curb, and allows substantial planting area for the development of large,clustered canopy trees and buffering shrub masses. Placement of the wide landscape area on the outside of Heritage Lake Drive will insure maximum visual awareness of the landscape treatment by people traveling around Heritage Lake Drive. Heritage Lake Drive includes 8-foot Class II bike lanes on both sides of the right-of-way to provide residents with bikeways and connectivity within Heritage Lake. C. Street"A" and Street"B" Street"A" and Street`B", as shown on Figure IV-13A, will provide additional access points into the project from the north and east. Street"A",which runs north-south beginning at SR-74,will provide an access to the high school site. Street `B", which runs east-west, will begin at Menifee Road and terminate at Heritage Lake Drive in the southwestern portion of the project. Street `B" will allow residents in the southern half of the project to easily access Menifee Road. The land plan in the southern portion of the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project site allows vehicles to maximize road travel on the perimeter highways instead of on the interior community roads. This will reduce interior traffic and maximize resident pedestrian and bicycle enjoyment of the Heritage Lake Drive landscape zones.

DESIGN GUIDEI_tE d. Local Road Streetscapes 1) Local Streets Local road and collector streetscapes are shown on Figures IV-13 and IV-13A, respectively. The local roads within MEN�FEE VALLEY RANCH consist of private front or side yards of single family residences. Street trees and front and exterior side yards will be required to be installed by the residential enclave builder, however, the rear and interior side yards will be the responsibility of each individual homeowner. 2) Residential Lot Landscape Requirements Each residential lot shall receive a minimum of one 15-gallon size street tree planted in the right-of-way. Corner lots shall receive a minimum of two 15-gallon size street trees also planted in the right-of-way. Street trees planted along right-of-way will be approximately 40 feet on center. Tree varieties shall be chosen from the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH Plant Palette contained herein. Trees should be clustered near property lines to maximize their buffering effect and streetscene impact. One species of tree shall be selected and approved for each residential street to maximize visual neighborhood identity. Deciduous or flowering evergreen accent trees which contrast with the chosen street trees are encouraged at cul-de-sacs,knuckles and intersections to provide seasonal emphasis and interest. 3) Residential Front Yard Requirements A maximum of fifty percent of the front yard,excluding driveways and sidewalks may be seeded or sodded turf. A minimum often 5-gallon shrubs,twenty 1-gallon shrubs and an automatic irrigation system shall be installed by the builder/developer in the front yard of each residential lot. The turf, shrubs and irrigation shall be installed up to a logical stopping point from the curb face to the front of house and side yards. Side yard slopes over 3:1 surface gradient and three feet in height should be planted with groundcover. Low slopes may be graded out to a less than 3:1 surface gradient and planted with turf. A minimum of one 24"box tree(minimum 2" caliper)and one 15-gallon or larger tree (minimum 2" caliper)shall be planted in the front yard of each residential lot in addition to the required street tree. These trees may match the street trees planted in the right-of- way and be located in proximity to said street trees in order to create a more harmonious effect. The trees may also contrast with the street tree and form backdrop tree clusters. Overall, the front yard scheme shall create a streetscene appearance of tree clusters meandering through the project and across streets.

DESIGN GUIDELINES 4. COMMUNITY WALLS AND FENCES Community walls and fences are a major visual element that helps to unify the visual appearance of the community. The wall and fence plan for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is shown on Figure IV-14, Community Walls and Fence Plan. Community walls and fences have been carefully designed to reflect the overall theme, and are illustrated on Figure IV-15, Conceptual Theme Wall and Fence Elevations. They will be easy to maintain and provide a durable, long term edge enclosure defining "private" and "public" spaces. a. Solid Masonry Theme Wall Solid masonry walls, as shown on Figure IV-15 as G2.1, will be provided as rear and side yard enclosures where privacy is desired such as adjacent to streetscapes. The solid theme wall used in MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH will be a mortar washed slump block masonry unit. Pilasters will be placed at wall terminus points and as determined to be necessary for visual benefit. b. Open Tubular Steel Fence Tubular steel fencing,as shown on Figure IV-15 as G2.2,will be used both at the residential interface to allow maximum view retention and at the interface with roads or other publicly accessible land uses where restricted access is necessary. Tubular steel fencing also may be used where an attractive open enclosure is necessary such as at a park site(or other land use)interface with busy roadways,where an open landscape buffer will not be sufficient to control recreational use. Where feasible,the tubular steel fence will be interspersed with thematic community stone or masonry pilasters. C. Tubular Steel Over Solid Masonry Wall This combination enclosure of a tubular steel fence mounted on a low solid masonry theme wall, as shown on Figure IV-15 as G2.3,occurs where partial privacy is necessary,but some view opportunity is permitted. Pilasters shall occur at the intersections of rear and side property lines, and shall be constructed of solid masonry theme wall materials. d. Community Wood Fence Wood fencing, as shown on Figure IV-15 as G2.4, is acceptable when not adjacent to common open space such as school sites,or parks. Wood fencing will be allowed in side yard,front yard,and rear yard conditions. Slopes in rear yard to rear yard conditions shall not exceed eight feet in height. Wood fence materials must be of sufficient quality to accept solid and semitransparent stains which are required to help prevent rotting and weathering. No transparent stains will be allowed. e. Chain Link Fencing The use of chain link fencing shall be discouraged, however, chain link will be permissible at the drainage channel interface. A dark vinyl clad mesh shall be required. f. Interior Neighborhood Strectscape Walls 1) Walls adjoining any interior neighborhood streetscene shall have a perimeter streetscene solid community theme treatment. The community solid theme wall shall be utilized at all residential corner lot side yards which parallel or are viewed from public streets.

DESIGN GUIDELINES related use that adjoins any parcel specifically zoned for residential, open space, or school use. j. Special Regulations 1) All fences and walls connecting two separate residential dwelling units shall be constructed of the same color and material, and shall be compatible with the color and material of the architecture. 2) Long walls should be broken-up with landscaping, alignment-offsets, and material changes to relieve visual monotony. When possible,a three-foot-minimum space should be left between paved areas and walls and fences to allow for vines and espaliers. k. Private Residential Walls and Fences 1) Front yard return walls shall be constructed of masonry and shall be a minimum of five feet(5') in height. 2) There shall be a side yard gate on one side of the front yard,and it shall be constructed of wrong iron, wood, or tubular steel. 3) Side and rear fencing shall be constructed of either masonry or wood. Wood fencing shall be of good quality and sufficient durability, with a stain or sealant to minimize water staining. All posts shall be set in concrete to a minimum depth of 24 inches with 3 inches of cover on all sides. 5. LAND USE TRANSITIONS Enhanced landscape treatments are incorporated throughout MENiFEE VALLEY RANCH to serve as buffers between land uses. Each landscape treatment is sensitive to the characteristics of the land uses being separated so that positive elements are accentuated while conflicting elements are mitigated. The landscape treatments for the individual land use interfaces are shown on Figures IV-16A through IV- 16H. a. Residential Interface at Park Sites A six-foot-high solid community theme wall shall enclose the rear of each residential lot that abuts a park site. A ten-foot-wide(minimum width)landscape buffer shall be provided within the park site along all edges that abut residential yards, as shown on Figure IV-16A,Residential Interface at Park Site. The landscape buffer will be planted with evergreen background and deciduous grove trees with a shrub and groundcover planting to create a dense buffer between the land uses. The landscape buffer will be installed as part of the park development. b. Residential Interface at School Sites A six-foot-high solid theme wall will be installed at all rear yard and side yard residential interfaces at school sites,as shown on Figure IV-1613,Residential Interface at School Sites. The school district will determine the landscape treatments to be provided on school property but will be encouraged to plant loose clusters of evergreen trees to provide an open buffer adjacent to residential land uses.

Residential Interface at the Lake,Greenbelts and Detention Areas Residential lots abutting the lake, greenbelts, and drainage channel areas will have a combination fence/wall system consisting of a low,solid community theme wall with an open tubular steel fence set above, as shown on Figure IV-1613, Residential Interface at Lake, Greenbelt and Detention Areas. Clusters of trees will be planted at side yard property boundaries to frame views and soften the impact of the residential structures to off-site areas. Shrub masses will be set along the wall edge and on adjacent slopes. Maintenance roads,where required,will be provided along the top of channel or lake edge,but will be set below residential lots to the degree feasible. d. Residential Interface at Open Space/Recreation Residential lots abutting open space/recreation areas will maximize the view amenity with the use of a five-foot-high open tubular steel fence over a six-inch-wide concrete mow curb,as shown on Figure IV- 16E,Residential Interface at Open Space/Recreation. e. Residential Interface at Open Space The residential lots abutting the open space in Planning Areas 13 and 38 will be enclosed with a six-foot- high solid community theme wall, as shown on Figure IV-16F,Residential Interface at Open Space. f. Residential Interface at Off-site An enhanced landscape treatment will serve as a buffer between the residential land uses and the adjacent off-site uses in the northwestern corner of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH, as depicted on Figure IV-I6G. g. Park Interface at School The landscape treatment between park and school land uses is shown on Figure IV-16H,Park Interface at School. h. Fuel Modification Open space areas proposed on-site, consisting of natural vegetation may increase the fire potential for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. City of Menifee Ordinance 2014-148 requires that a Fire Fuel Modification Zone be maintained along residential edges at natural open space areas in order to reduce potential impacts from fires in the nearby open space. The project proposes to establish a 100-foot wide, fuel modification zone,measured from the residential property line to the open space areas. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-44 y ALIS.

DESIGN GUIDELINES 6. PARKS a. Overview Critical to the success of any community is the quality and integration of the community spaces into the community fabric. The MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH land plan has developed around a theme of recreation and open space amenity to ensure a distinctive quality of life. The park sites and recreational amenities will properly address the needs of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH residents. The park and recreation design program has several major elements including multi-use park sites,open space/meadows, a recreation trail system, and water recreation-oriented open space. 1) Heritage Lake This area of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH enjoys a well balanced plan of park locations interconnected by a strong and clear pedestrian system with a lake/greenbelt amenity located in the heart of the village. A majority of the residents can access the community park and school sites with very little need to drive by using the greenbelt trail system. The lake feature will provide a dual use as a flood control retention and detention area and as a recreational amenity for boating and fishing if feasible. The gas line easement traversing the southwest corner of the community will be used to expand the pedestrian trail system and widen the streetscape landscape zone abutting Heritage Lake Drive. 2) Minor Ranch Although this portion of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH is dominated by 151.0 acres of open space/meadows,non-golf recreation is abundant. The centrally located,23.0-acre park site in combination with the 59.8-acre high school site will offer many active recreational opportunities. These sites also are linked by pedestrian and jog paths along McLaughlin Road and Malaga Road. b. Community Park Sites A 22.2-acre community park is planned in Planning Area 21,adjacent to the greenbelt buffer that abuts the railroad right-of-way. Additionally, a 23.0-acre community park is located in Planning Area 9, adjacent to high school uses in Planning Area 8. These parks are intended to serve not only the community of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH,but surrounding residential areas as well. It is anticipated that the community park will contain a variety of facilities such as: + Restrooms/maintenance building; • Snack bar facility; • On-site parking; • Picnic facilities and barbecue areas; + Basketball courts; • Baseball diamonds(2 or more); * Soccer and/or football fields(2 or more); • Tot lot; ■ Shade tree plantings; and • Night sports lighting maybe installed by the maintenance entity. A conceptual illustration of the park sites are depicted on Figures IV-17A and IV-1713. The park is Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-49 i MENIFEE VAD 7 RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELIaNlES designed to maximize the efficiency of organized sport league management by creating a centralized facility with multiple sports fields and activities. C. Neighborhood Park Sites The park system includes five neighborhood parks plus the interior lake and greenbelts system. The neighborhood parks include:the 3.3-acre park in Planning Area 5B shown in Figure IV-17C,the 4.9-acre park in Planning Area 5A shown in Figure IV-17D,the 4.8-acre park in Planning Area 22B is shown in Figure IV-17E,the 7.6-acre park in Planning Area 26 shown in Figure IV-17F,and the 11.5-acre park in Planning Area 37 is shown in Figure IV-17G. The total neighborhood park acreage occupies 32.1 acres. The lake and surrounding greenbelt encompasses 41.8 acres. Park conceptual designs provide the following minimum elements: ■ On-site parking; ■ Picnic facilities; • Basketball courts; ■ Tot lot and pre-teen areas; • Shade tree plantings and rolling turf areas; and ■ Sand volleyball courts(where indicated) Where the neighborhood parks abut schools,the school district(s)will be encouraged to design site plans which complement park development to better meet community needs. No night lighting of sports fields shall be permitted in neighborhood parks to minimize conflicts with adjacent residential uses. d. Jog Path/Pedestrian Path System The jog path is a unique element in the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH plan. The path reinforces the recreational theme by providing an extensive, quality surface for walkers and joggers within the community boundaries. The substantial landscape planting around the path system will create an attractive and desirable setting for this healthy recreational opportunity. The jog path, as presently planned, includes over 5.5 miles of soft decomposed granite trail surface. e. Open Space/Meadows A total of 151.0 acres of open space/meadows, as depicted on Figures IV-17GG and IV-17GGG, will offer passive and active recreational opportunities for the senior housing planned for development in the adjacent planning areas between Malaga Road and BNSF Railroad tracks. Proposed amenities for the open space/meadows may include: • Community Clubhouse w/pool and spa • Basketball courts • Tennis courts • Gathering spaces • Shade tree plantings and rolling turf areas • Picnic and barbecue facilities • Walking and hiking trails • Lakes and ponds ■ Restrooms Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-50 blFNM a VALLEY FANCM IV uaww GLgw R+Ea TREE LEGEND PARK SITE ACERAGE: I%. %LEt(LERsrROMinnrvoiu'MUs[ocLP tr4l NnLlµ ROWAREA: 000 AC �uLgRe�tLW'rwW MCl�+tte y1N11 t:1rw TOTAL VALLEY WIDE LMD AREA 2a 51 AC okinm*IIm Atpy- �IRAEAWiL1CT � fM.gr Sa..+'i[Agc.II -PARKING LOLL COORSSPACESWITH QUER iOU11Ra.Inl wa -]BASKETBALL COURTS WITH LIGHTING -2 VOLLEY BALL COURTS -B TENNIS COURTS -SOCCERE DS WITH LIGHTING -TURF BLEND SHALL BE BERMUDA/PERENNIAL RYE KEnl rn °'fy I[MtyN.TCefN11dK .NE�pt.+wN M•' PLANNING AREA 21 COMMUNITY PARK(20.1 ACRES) x' uerNo.ZV.17A Specific Plan Na 301,Amendment Na 3 IV-51 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV.D65roNGulDEut+Fs POLIGONPICNIC SHELTER(TYP) - Est WITHENHANCEDCOLUMNS nw eeo RYPI � •y.

OUTDOOR LIGHTING All streets and developments in MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH shall have uniform lighting standards with regard to style,materials,and colors in order to ensure consistent design. Each residential development may develop its own lighting standards, provided that the selected lighting fixture style is used consistently throughout the project. Lighting fixtures shall be well-integrated into the visual environment and the appropriate architectural theme. All lighting fixtures in the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project area shall comply with the following regulations and provisions. 1) All outdoor lighting, including spotlights, floodlights, electrical reflectors, and other means of illumination for signs,structures,landscaping,parking,loading,unloading and similar areas shall be focused,directed,and arranged to minimize glare and illumination of streets or adjoining property. Low intensity, energy conserving night lighting is preferred. 2) Lights shall be unbreakable plastic, recessed, or otherwise designed to reduce the problems associated with damage and replacement of fixtures. Fixtures shall be vandal proof. 3) Neon and similar types of lighting are prohibited in all areas of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. 4) All exterior lighting designs should develop a sense of hierarchy by varying fixtures and illumination levels. Proper lighting helps to define the organization of streets and plazas; and also distinguishes vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns. Community entry areas (both pedestrian and vehicular), public plazas, community facilities, and highly used recreation areas shall be creatively lit to develop a sense of place and arrival. 5) All exterior lighting designs shall address the issue of security. Parking lots,pedestrian walkways, and building entrances shall be well lighted for security reasons. 6) All exterior lights should be shielded where feasible and focused to minimize spill light into the night sky or adjacent properties, and shall conform to standards for the Mt. Palomar Observatory Special Lighting Area 7) No freestanding lighting fixtures shall exceed 25 feet in height. 8) Service area lighting shall be contained within the service yard boundaries and enclosure walls. 9) The lighting concept of the project entry features is to illuminate the sign graphics and to gently wash the walls and pilasters with light. Trees and other landscape features should be illuminated by concealed uplight fixtures. 10) All electrical meter pedestals and light switch/control equipment shall be located with minimum public visibility if possible or shall be screened with appropriate plant materials. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-63 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES 11) The level of on-site lighting as well as lighting fixtures, shall comply with any and all applicable requirements and policies ofthe City of Menifee. Energy conservation,safety and security should be emphasized when designing any light system. 12) All community landscape common areas,public facilities, streetscapes,parks, schools, and other areas may,at the discretion of the project developer or builders,contain area, accent, sports, or other night lighting entities. 2. IRRIGATION All landscaped areas shall be watered with a permanent underground irrigation system,except for slopes which may have a permanent above-ground irrigation system. Irrigation systems which adjoin a separate maintenance responsibility area shall be designed in a manner to ensure complete water coverage between the areas. Proper consideration of irrigation system design and installation in the climate extremes of the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH area is critical to the success of the landscape investment. In particular,the combined summer elements of heat and wind must be carefully considered in proper irrigation design and equipment selection. Overhead spray irrigation systems shall be designed with head to head, 100 percent double coverage at a minimum. Native and drought-tolerant shrub areas will use a combination of spray(temporary)and drip or bubbler irrigation to shrubs and trees.In addition,irrigation controllers should have a minimum time setting of one minute and be capable of providing multiple repeat start times. All irrigation heads adjacent to walks, drives, and curbs (car overhangs) shall be of the pop-up type. Irrigation backflow prevention devices and controllers shall be located with minimum public visibility or shall be screened with appropriate plant materials. a. Reclaimed Water Irrigation systems designed for use with both domestic and reclaimed water are encouraged. Reclaimed water is currently unavailable. However,all irrigation systems shall be designed for the eventual use of reclaimed water and/or conversion when available, per current applicable standards. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-64 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES b. Water Conservation Measures 1) Drip and/or bubbler irrigation will be used where appropriate. 2) Use of moisture sensors and/or central control irrigation system may be incorporated where appropriate and feasible. 3) Irrigation systems will be designed per AB 325 guidelines and City of Menifee Ordinance 2009-61. C. Requirements Irrigation systems and plans will be prepared per landscape maintenance district or Valley Wide Recreation and Park District requirements and/or City of Menifee ordinances. 3. PLANT MATERIAL GUIDELINES MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH will have a vastly different appearance from initial planting to several years into development. The quality of that appearance will depend on many factors including the initial selection of the plant material palette, soil preparation and installation, irrigation management and care and maintenance. All of these issues have been addressed in the preparation of the planting design theme and plant palette selection. A brief discussion of the planting approach and key issues follows: a. General Landscape Requirements I) All areas required to be landscaped shall be planted with turf,groundcover,shrub or tree materials selected from the plant palette contained in these guidelines. 2) The owners of parcels that require landscape development shall consider any existing common landscape areas adjoining their property. Where feasible, landscape development shall reinforce or be compatible with such existing common area setting. 3) Cut slopes equal to or greater than eight feet in vertical height and fill slopes equal to or greater than five feet in vertical height shall be planted with a ground cover to protect the slope from erosion and instability. Slopes exceeding 15 feet in vertical height shall be planted with shrubs spaced not more than ten feet average on center,or trees spaced not to exceed thirty feet average on center,or a combination of shrubs and trees at equivalent spacings,in addition to the groundcover. The plants selected and planting methods shall be suitable for the soil and climatic conditions. 4) Reference should be made to the City of Menifee Standards for erosion control methods for slopes and other landscaped areas. Parkway Tree Planting: All street or parkway trees shall be planted so as to maintain adequate distance and shall maintain the following planting distances: a) Ten feet from all water and sewer lines. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-65 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES b) Five feet from all flat hardscape (sidewalks, curbs, vaults, etc.) except as otherwise approved by the City. c) Fifteen feet from all drive approaches. d) Twenty-five feet from all street intersection curb returns. b. Climate Constraints Plant material palettes for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH contained herein are compatible with the climatic setting of the area. The use of some materials, depending upon their site location, exposure, and relationship to other influential factors may not be appropriate. C. Planting Due to the climate extremes of the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH area, the installation of plant materials during the coldest winter months(December through March)and the hottest summer/fall months(July through September) can be difficult. Container plant materials not acclimated to the area can easily suffer from damage or sun/heat exposure resulting in partial or entire foliage loss even through such materials are perfectly suited to the temperature ranges once established. If planting must be done during these difficult periods, plant establishment may be difficult and require a prolonged period of time. d. Horticultural Soils Test Requirements Soil characteristics within the MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project may be variable. The owners of parcels which require landscape development shall procure a horticultural soils report in order to determine proper planting and maintenance requirements for proposed plant materials. Such a soils test shall be performed by a qualified agricultural laboratory and shall include a soil fertility and agricultural suitability analysis with pre-planting and post-planting recommendations. e. Topography MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH lies in a valley-bottom area. There may be extreme cold conditions occurring due to poor air drainage during winter months. This will be affected by the development patterns of the community and are difficult to predict. The plant palette proposed may, on occasion, suffer adverse affects in certain areas of the community. Adjustments may need to be made at that time. L Drought Tolerance/Water Conserving Plant Material Although a plant may be considered as drought-tolerant or water-conserving,that plant requires proper care, installation,watering and maintenance to maintain an optimum healthy condition. Degrees of Drought Tolerance/Water Conservation: There are degrees of drought tolerance with some plants able to withstand or go without water for a greater period of time than others. Water conserving plant material may not be drought tolerant but can thrive on low water amounts throughout the year once established. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-66 MENIFEE VAL EY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES Plant Installation Water Demand: Drought tolerant plants, like other plants, require more watering during the initial installation period and for at least a three-month maintenance period following to become established. Therefore, if drought tolerant plants are installed in the warmer months more supplemental water will be required until the plant is established. Deep Watering Practices: Drought tolerant plants, like most plants, need the proper deep watering practices to encourage deep root system development. Drought tolerant plants with a shallow root system resulting from frequent light applications of water will not be drought tolerant. Warmer Months Water Application: Depending upon the plant,drought-tolerant plants will have a better appearance and health during the warmer months with infrequent deep watering. Full Season Plant Water Requirements: After drought-tolerant plants have grown a full season,the water application rate should be diminished and the drought-tolerant plant allowed to survive on less water. Maintenance: Drought-tolerant and California native plants still need regular maintenance such as pruning, fertilizing, deep watering, and checking for pests and diseases. g. Invasive Species Non-native invasive plant species shall not be used in landscape plans,fuel modification zones,or buffer zones that interface with preserved natural open space areas. Any CC&R's will provide that disposal of cuttings of these or any other ornamental plants in preserved natural open space areas is strictly prohibited. Controlled invasive non-native species shall include the following: Non-native Acacia's(Acacia spp.) Tree of Heaven(Ailanthus altissima) Giant reed(Arundo donax)* Hottentot-fig(Carpobrotus edulis) Garland chyrsanthemum(Chrysanthemum coronarium)* Pampas grass(Cortaderia atacamensis)* French broom(Cytisus monspessulans) Scotch broom(Cytisus scoparius) * Crystal ice plant(Mesembryanthemum crystallinum) Small-flowered ice plant(Mesembryanthemum nodiflorum) Bermuda buttercup(Oxalis pes-caprae)* German ivy(Senecio mikanoides) Pink periwinkle(Vinca major) Tamarisk(Tamarix spp.)* Gorse(Ulex europaeus) *Indicates a species that may not be used in any plantpalettes, regardless oflocation in the development, due to its ability to readily spread via airborne seeds, rather than vegetatively. Specific Plan No. 301,Amendment No. 3 IV-67 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES h. Plant Pest and Disease Control Consistent problems in ornamental and native planting schemes are the diseases and pests that have affected trees and shrubs, often in significant visual patterns through a community. Recent well- documented problems include oleander scorch blight and several eucalyptus problems,however,a series of other problems have occurred on an annual basis. There is no way to predict the occurrence of new pests or diseases,however,there are useful methods to limit the impact of outbreaks. These include the following: 1) Maintain optimum plant health through soil preparation,water management,and nutrient monitoring. 2) Review community plant material on a regular basis to observe health problems due to disease or pest infestation and take appropriate action. 3) Avoid a mono-culture approach to plant material design. This will buffer the spread of plant problems and limit the concentration of host plants, thus diluting the breeding capacity of pest or disease problems. Also,damage will be less obvious and devastating to the appearance of the community landscape. 4) Place plant material in appropriate planting areas and provide proper spacing consistent with the requirements of the plant species. 5) Place plants in similar hydro zone groupings to maximize efficient water use. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-68 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES 4. PLANT PALETTE The intent of these guidelines is to provide a simple plant palette which compliments and enhances the thematic setting for the community. In addition, these plant palettes have been selected for their appropriateness to climatic conditions, soil conditions, and concern for maintenance and water conservation. Plant selection for given project areas shall have similar cultural requirements so irrigation can be designed to minimize water use, and plant material can thrive under optimal conditions. The plant palettes have been separated into distinct groups and are listed below. a.

DESIGN GUIDELINES F. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN GUIDELINES I This section sets forth the architectural and site design guidelines for the planned community of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. These guidelines are intended to provide guidance for the expression of development in the community. Developers,builders, engineers, architects, landscape architects and other design professionals should utilize the guidelines in order to maintain design continuity,create an identifiable image and develop a cohesive community. This section also identifies certain key architectural and site design elements that should be considered in all residential development. It is the intent of these guidelines to establish a consistent architectural expression that reflects the indigenous elements and character of the surrounding environment while at the same time allowing for flexibility in design. In addition, where not set forth in this section all applicable City standards must be satisfied. 1. RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURAL a. Architectural Themes and Styles I The residential architecture of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH will reflect the architectural themes and styles prevalent in Southern California. The developer of MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH has undertaken considerable research in an effort to understand the diverse and creative architectural history of Southern California in the City of Menifee. As a result of this analysis,a variety of residential architectural themes and styles will be allowed and encouraged within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH,with the goal of instituting compatible variety into MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. Rather than mandate a particular architectural style, this Specific Plan encourages building and design teams to develop architectural designs based on styles historically used in this region. The design goal of Menifee Valley Ranch is to achieve appropriate interpretations of the historical styles rather than exact recreations. In order to achieve an appropriate interpretation of a particular style,it is important to maintain consistency within each architectural style. Interpretation of the selected architectural styles must address the economics of today's market,as well as meet the codes and standards within the building industry. In keeping with this approach,these design guidelines are intended to present images of architectural components and details representative ofthose anticipated for the homes within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. Within the entire MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH project, there shall be a minimum of three (3) distinct architectural themes and styles used(e.g.,Mission,Craftsman, Cottage,etc.). A minimum of three(3) distinct floor plan options (not including reversed plans) shall be provided for in each residential Planning Area with less than 100 homes. Each plan shall be designed and constructed with a minimum of three(3)distinct building elevations.A minimum of four(4)distinct floor plan options with no less than four(4)distinct elevations per plan shall be provided for in each residential Planning Area with 100 or more homes. However, if five (5) distinct floor plan options are provided within one residential Planning Area, then no more than three (3) building elevations per plan shall be required. Elevation variations can be accomplished through the creative use of material and color palettes and different floor plans. Primary building colors must provide a visual noticeable variation when the homes are grouped together along each neighborhood street.

Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-77 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES Allowing a variety of architectural styles emphasizes the importance of designing creative and fresh residential neighborhoods and homes. Architectural design creativity,attention to detail,and respect of the building's scale and massing along residential streets will be expected to be a level equal to or exceeding the residential homes and neighborhoods within the surrounding communities. Design features will be incorporated into each residence and may include front porches, interesting doors and windows, creative garage placement, dormers, front year setback variations, and varying architectural setbacks. The intent will be to give each street and each neighborhood it's own unique identity,while creating a community of quality homes. Implementation of this project will draw upon the various se styles to achieve a cohesive sense of place and identity for MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. b. Architectural Design Components Residential buildings of any architectural style are comprised of certain basic design components. These components establish the character and identity of not only the individual home but of the neighborhood as well. Each builder and their design team shall be required to pay special attention to the proper application of these components as shown in the photographs on the following pages. The design guidelines and accompanying photographs presented in this document are intended to provide guidance to the builders and developers of residential buildings within MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. It is not the intent of these Design Guidelines to require that all the represented design features and elements be incorporated into each subdivision. Rather, they are provided as a "palette" of character defining elements of which design proposals for residential housing types should reflect. C. Massing and Scale Building mass and scale are two of the primary design components used to establish appealing communities and personable neighborhoods. Controlling the mass of a building through design articulation of the building facades,attention to rooflines and variation in vertical and horizontal planes effectively reduces the visual mass of a building. The development of one-story elements along neighborhood streets and at street corners,which allow the building to"step back"from a given edge, provides for a manageable building scale. Both components, mass and scale, will be primary design considerations during the development of the street friendly and pedestrian scale architecture that will be used throughout MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH. Articulation, delineation and variation in form should be reflective of the particular architectural style selected. Important design considerations must be utilized to attain the intended architectural theme and create visually appealing,appropriately defined structures. It is important to provide variation in front yard setbacks,building types and architectural styles along any neighborhood street so as to provide variation in the mass and scale of the buildings. This will provide desirable and necessary visual variety within neighborhoods. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-78 MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV.

Building Materials and Colors Building materials and colors are important elements when used to achieve a true representation of a specific architectural style. Colors should be as authentic as possible when compared to the traditional color palette of the selected style. Consideration will also be given to colors available in the contemporary market. Material breaks,transitions and termination should produce complimentary and clear definitions of separation while maintaining a prescribed color and materials theme. This is especially important in changing from stucco and/or siding to masonry veneers. The use of building materials and colors play a key role in developing community character and ambiance. The character and personality of a residential neighborhood is significantly affected by the composition of the materials and colors of the homes within it. Consideration must be given to selecting a variety of complimentary color and material palettes along any given street. On contiguous lots, structures with the same or similar colors of stucco will not be permitted. A scheme of color values on all exterior elements shall be distinct from one house to the next, with deeper tones encouraged to promote variations. This will avoid a monotonous appearance of multiple buildings of the same colors and tones.The selected architectural styles for Menifee Valley Ranch allow for a diversity of colors and materials. A minimum of three different architectural styles will be required for each residential neighborhood. Furthermore, a minimum of three(3)distinct floor plan options(not including reversed plans)shall be provided for in each residential Planning Area with less than 100 homes. Each plan shall be designed and constructed with a minimum of three(3)distinct building elevations. A minimum of four(4)distinct floor plan options with no less than four(4) distinct elevations per plan shall be provided for in each residential Planning Area with 100 or more homes. However, if five(5)distinct floor plan options are provided within one residential Planning Area,then no more than three(3)building elevations per plan shall be required. The elevation variations can be achieved by the use of varying material and color combinations. e. Roofing Materials and Colors Roofs and rooflines of a house are significant components of a building's composition when used to define a particular architectural style. A roof s composition should allow for a clean interface with the building and the building facade. The two elements should not be overbearing nor give the appearance of being disjointed or cut-up. It is important to choose the appropriate roof pitch, characteristics and materials that are consistent and true to the selected architectural style. Varying roof pitches on the same building should be avoided unless they are integral to the architectural style or extending over porches and balconies. A roof s color is an important consideration in most architectural styles and should be in keeping with the total presentation of the overall building. Roof materials and colors selected for an architectural style must reflect the elements that are typically used in that style. The bright orange and terra cotta colored tiles so common to many mass-produced residential communities must be avoided. Roof colors should be soft and warm rather than bright and bold, thus avoiding an overpowering visual intrusion to the community's appearance and character. In addition,roof colors shall vary from one house to the next, and roofing materials shall be non-combustible. Specific Plan No. 301, Amendment No. 3 IV-84 'MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH IV.

DESIGN GUIDELINES L Windows and Doors Window and door details are architectural components that carry a strong visual impact through their placement and design. The proportion of the windows and doors to the wall massing varies according to the architectural style chosen. Feature windows, that are appropriate to the selected architectural style, are important to the building elevation due to their character. They should enhance rather than dominate the overall architectural character of the home and the neighborhoods. Windows, when stacked vertically, should have a hierarchy to them. Size and shape should be carefully considered to ensure a balanced relationship with the surrounding walls and roof. Windows should be studied as to their size,shape,proportions,casings, multi-lite divisions,as well as color and repetition.The choice of windows should be in keeping with the selected architectural style. Entry doors should be designed proportionally to the walls surrounding them,appropriate to the selected architectural style, and prominent in character. Accent shutters,used with either windows or doors,should be in keeping with the size and dimension of the window or door. Historically it was the purpose of these elements to cover the window or door, therefore the elements should reflect that original purpose wherever possible. The following design considerations are based on the traditional use of the windows and doors within each architectural style. The use of these elements in a contemporary version of any selected architectural style should consider the essence of the doors and windows historically, while adapting them to today's codes and economics. g. Porches and Balconies The incorporation of front porches and front and rear balconies as part of the architectural vocabulary is encouraged for both aesthetic and practical reasons. Porches and balconies integrate indoor and outdoor living spaces, allow for elevated garden locations that provide light and air to the interior and also provide shelter. Porches and balconies break up large wall masses and reduce the scale of the house at the street and sidewalk edge.Along a neighborhood street,front porches add an element of personal scale and ambiance, where neighbors can sit and gather, or talk with others walking by. The result of this opportunity is the added security that is provided within the residential neighborhood. The use of front porches with a minimum usable width of five(5)to six(6)feet is encouraged along local and residential streets. This is an important design feature that is appropriate to particular architectural styles. A porch rail should be included to define the space and add architectural detail to the porch and the front elevation of the house. A railing is only needed with certain architectural styles.

Columns and Posts Columns and posts are important design components in many of the suggested architectural styles for Menifee Valley Ranch and are often signature elements to a particular style. Columns and posts should be incorporated as structural and aesthetic design elements and should be dimensioned appropriately so that a solid and durable image is conveyed. The scale and dimension of these elements varies depending upon the architectural style. The elements should reflect the selected style when they are introduced in the design proposals. i. Garages In a society geared to the automobile,the automobiles"housing needs have come to be the predominant architectural element on many of the streets we live on. Too often garages have been designed in a manner that detracts from the overall appearance of the neighborhood. Menifee Valley Ranch requires that particular attention be given to the design,placement and orientation of the garages in all residential neighborhoods. While maintaining an awareness of the contemporary market and the targeted market segment,every effort is expected to minimize the impact of the garage on the residential neighborhood. Depending upon lot size, this can be accomplished through a variety of methods including: • Turn-in orientations(side-loaded); • Garage setback greater than the house front setback; ■ Split two-car one-car garage, set to opposite sides of home; • Rear of lot garage placement with driveway access from the front of the lot; • Tandem garages for third car; • Garage door design considerations that include recessed, creative panel design, windows,and color; and/or ■ A porte-cochere architectural element. Although MENIFEE VALLEY RANCH has established its architectural character based on regionally and historicallysignificant architectural styles,the automobile plays a more prominent role today than when these architectural styles originated. While the garage is a necessary component in all contemporary versions of the suggested architectural styles,builders,planners,architects and landscape architects will need to carefully consider garage location,variation and placement along each residential street. If side- loaded garages are utilized, a reduction in front yard setback of up to five feet is permitted. Garage doors are a major visual element and should be simple in design. Garage door design should reflect a slightly recessed door. Individual bays should be provided which are offset and which are separated. This will eliminate visually extensive garage door facades. Three and two car garage configurations can be divided into two/one and one/one configurations to allow for entry courts and auto arrival courts. Accent colors should be used to compliment the architecture and provide visual variety along the streetscape. At least 25%ofthe garage doors shall provide windows,and garage door windows should correspond to the window forms of the house. Landscape vines and tree wells should be introduced to soften the visual impact of the garage door and accent the garage facade.
