General Conditions
7. GEO01876. County Geologic Report (GEO) No. 1876, submitted for this
project (TR34406), was prepared by GeoSoils, Inc. and is entitled: "Preliminary
Geotechnical Evaluation, Tentative Tract 34406, Menifee, Riverside County,
California", dated March 6, 2007. In addition GeoSoils, Inc. prepared the
following report entitled:
"Response to Review Comments by the County of Riverside Planning
Department, Tract 34406, Menifee, Riverside County, California" dated August
27, 2007.
This additional report is now considered as part of GEO No. 1876.
GEO No 1876 concluded:
1. Existing topsoils, weathered Pleistocene-age fan deposits and weathered
granitic bedrock on this site are typically porous, loose, subject to settlement
and considered unsuitable in their present condition for the support of
settlement sensitive structures. These materials should be removed with the
remedial removals estimated to range from 3 to 4 feet across the site.
2. Based on site mapping, literature research and aerial photo analysis, it was
determined that no known active faults cross or project toward this site.
Therefore the potential for this site to be affected by surface fault rupture is
considered low.
3. The closest active, Holocene fault to the site is San Jacinto-San Jacinto
Valley fault which lies 10.4 miles from the site. A design basis (upper bound)
earthquake on this fault would produce peak horizontal ground accelerations
on this site of about 0.40g with a 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years.
4. Based on available data, regional groundwater is not anticipated to affect
site development. However perched groundwater conditions may develop due
to irrigation practices or above average rainfall and proper drainage provisions
should be incorporated in the design to minimize the influx of water into the
subsurface soils.
5. The potential for this site to be affected by secondary seismic hazards such
as seismically induced liquefaction, subsidence, flooding, seiche/tsunami or
seismically induced landsliding is considered low.
GEO No 1876 recommended:
1. The soils recommended for removal may be re-used as compacted fill soils
provided they are cleaned of organics and any other deleterious materials. The
removals should expose competent fan deposits or granitic bedrock defined as
materials exhibiting in-place dry densities of at least 105 pounds per cubic foot
or at least an 85 percent degree of saturation. The approved removal bottoms
should be scarified to a depth of 12 inches, brought to at least optimum
moisture content and compacted to a minimum relative compaction of 90
7
percent of the laboratory maximum dry density as determined by ASTM Test
Method D 1557 prior to placing any fill.
2. Although the site has a low potential for surface fault rupture, it does lie
within a seismically active area of southern California and should be expected
to experience strong seismic shaking during the lifetime of the proposed
development. All structures should be designed in accordance with the latest
provisions of the most recent edition of the Uniform Building Code for a site
located in UBC Seismic Zone 4, located 10.4 miles from a UBC Type B seismic
source and overlying a UBC Type Sb/Sc soil.
3. Preliminary testing indicated that the on-site soils possess a low to very low
expansion index, however there are potentially higher expansion soils present
at depth that may become incorporated into the proposed fills. Therefore the
finished pads should be sampled and tested for expansion potential and
mitigation recommendations for expansive soils should be provided at that time
based on the results of those tests.
GEO No. 1876 satisfies the requirement for a Faulting/Geologic/Seismic Study
for Planning /CEQA purposes. GEO No. 1876 is hereby accepted for Planning
purposes. This approval is not intended, and should not be misconstrued as
approval for grading permit. Engineering and other building code parameters
will be reviewed and additional comments and/or conditions may be imposed
by the City’s Engineering / Public Works and/or Building and Safety
Department upon application for grading and/or building permits.
8. Project Mitigation Monitoring Program. The EIR prepared for the SPECIFIC
PLAN imposes specific mitigation measures and monitoring requirements on
the project. Certain conditions of the SPECIFIC PLAN and this implementing
project constitute reporting/monitoring requirements for certain mitigation
measures.
9. Map Act Compliance. This land division shall comply with the State of
California Subdivision Map Act and to all requirements of County Ordinance
No. 460, Schedule A, unless modified by the conditions listed herein.
10. Offsite Signs Municipal Code Section 9.76.160. No offsite subdivision signs
advertising this land division/development are permitted, other than those
allowed under Municipal Code Section 9.76.160. Violation of this condition of
approval may result in no further permits of any type being issued for this
subdivision until the unpermitted signage is removed.
11. Residential Design Guidelines. The design standards for the subject parcels
are as follows:
a. Lots created by this map shall conform to the design standards of the
SP (SP301) zone.

ARCHEOLOGY/PALEONTOLOGY
18. Human Remains. If human remains are encountered, State Health and Safety
Code Section 7050.5 states that no further disturbance shall occur until the
Riverside County Coroner has made the necessary findings as to origin.
Further, pursuant to Public Resource Code Section 5097.98(b) remains shall
be left in place and free from disturbance until a final decision as to the
treatment and disposition has been made. If the Riverside County Coroner
determines the remains to be Native American, the Native American Heritage
Commission shall be contacted within the period specified by law (24 hours).
Subsequently, the Native American Heritage Commission shall identify the
"most likely descendant." The most likely descendant shall then make
recommendations and engage in consultation concerning the treatment of the
remains as provided in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. Human
remains from other ethnic/cultural groups with recognized historical
associations to the project area shall also be subject to consultation between
appropriate representatives from that group and the Property Owner.
19. Inadvertent Archeological Find. If during ground disturbance activities,
unique cultural resources are discovered that were not assessed by the
10
archaeological report(s) and/or environmental assessment conducted prior to
project approval, the following procedures shall be followed. Unique cultural
resources are defined, for this condition only, as being multiple artifacts in
close association with each other, but may include fewer artifacts if the area of
the find is determined to be of significance due to its sacred or cultural
importance as determined in consultation with the Native American Tribe(s).
i. All ground disturbance activities within 100 feet of the discovered
cultural resources shall be halted until a meeting is convened
between the developer, the archaeologist, the tribal representative(s)
and the Community Development Director to discuss the significance
of the find.
ii. At the meeting, the significance of the discoveries shall be discussed
and after consultation with the Native American tribal
representative(s) and the archaeologist, a decision shall be made,
with the concurrence of the Community Development Director, as to
the appropriate mitigation (documentation, recovery, avoidance, etc.)
for the cultural resources.
iii. Grading of further ground disturbance shall not resume within the
area of the discovery until an agreement has been reached by all
parties as to the appropriate mitigation.
iv. Treatment and avoidance of the newly discovered resources shall be
consistent with the Cultural Resources Treatment and Monitoring
Agreements entered into with the appropriate tribes. This may include
avoidance of the cultural resources through project design, in-place
preservation of cultural resources located in native soils and/or re-
burial on the Project property so they are not subject to further
disturbance in perpetuity.
v. Pursuant to Calif. Pub. Res. Code § 21083.2(b) avoidance is the
preferred method of preservation for archaeological resources and
cultural resources. If the landowner and the Tribe(s) cannot agree on
the significance or the mitigation for the archaeological or cultural
resources, these issues will be presented to the City Community
Development Director for decision. The City Community Development
Director shall make the determination based on the provisions of the
California Environmental Quality Act with respect to archaeological
resources, recommendations of the project archeologist and shall
take into account the cultural and religious principles and practices of
the Tribe. Notwithstanding any other rights available under the law,
the decision of the City Community Development Director shall be
appealable to the City Planning Commission and/or City Council.”

22. Front and Side Yard Landscaping Maintenance Responsibility. The
owners of each individual lot shall be responsible for maintaining all
landscaping between the curb of the street and the proposed sidewalk and side
yard landscaping between the curb of the street and proposed fencing, unless
the landscaping is included within a separate common lot maintained by an
HOA or other entity acceptable to the City of Menifee.
23. Landscape Maintenance. The land divider, or any successor-in-interest to the
land divider, shall be responsible for maintenance and upkeep of all slopes,
landscaped areas and irrigation systems within the land division until such time
as those operations are the responsibility of a property owner’s association, or
any other successor-in-interest.

C. Drainage
General Conditions:
146. Flood Hazard Report. The site receives runoff from four major offsite
watersheds that drain about 1,700 acres, 3,300 acres, 360 acres, and 458
acres, respectively. In addition, the runoff from several smaller offsite
watersheds, as well as the storm flow generated onsite, impact the property.
Following are the District's previous recommendations in order to protect the
public health and safety:
1. In compliance with Santa Ana Region and San Diego Region Regional
Water Quality Control Board Orders, and Beginning January 1, 2005,
projects submitted within the western region of the unincorporated area of
Riverside County for discretionary approval will be required to comply
with the Water Quality Management Plan for Urban Runoff (WQMP). The
WQMP addresses post-development water quality impacts from new
development and redevelopment projects. The WQMP requirements will
vary depending on the project's geographic location (Santa Ana, Santa
Margarita or Whitewater River watersheds). The WQMP provides detailed
guidelines and templates to assist the developer in completing the
necessary studies. These documents are available on-line at:
www.floodcontrol.co.riverside.ca.us.
To comply with the WQMP a developer must submit a "Project Specific"
WQMP. This report is intended to a) identify potential post-project
pollutants and hydrologic impacts associated with the development; b)
identify proposed mitigation measures (BMPs) for identified impacts
41
including site design, source control and treatment control post-
development BMPs; and c) identify sustainable funding and maintenance
mechanisms for the aforementioned BMPs. A template for this report is
included as 'exhibit A' in the WQMP. A final Project Specific WQMP must
be approved by the City prior to issuance of building or grading permits.
Projects requiring Project Specific WQMPs are required to submit a
PRELIMINARY Project Specific WQMP along with the land-use
application package. The format of the PRELIMINARY report shall mimic
the format/template of the final report but can be less detailed. For
example, points a, b & c above must be covered, rough calculations
supporting sizing must be included, and footprint/locations for the BMPs
must be identified on the tentative exhibit. Detailed drawings will not be
required.
2. The northern portion of the site is located within the bounds of the
Homeland/Romoland Area Drainage Plan (ADP). The southern portion is
located within the Winchester/North Hemet ADP. The Board of
Supervisors has established fees for these plans, and applicable ADP
fees will be due (in accordance with the Rules and Regulations for
Administration of Area Drainage Plans) prior to permits within the Specific
Plan. The fee due will be based on the fee in effect at the time of fee
payment.
3. Greenbelt/park drainage facilities - It is the City’s preference that a
public entity be responsible for the maintenance of the open space areas
used for floodwater conveyance. If a public entity cannot be found, the
City would accept an HOA for maintenance in planning areas 11 and 12
for the following reasons. 1. No offsite areas are tributary to the
meadow/park areas and the flowrates are relatively small. 2. The
longitudinal slopes for the conveyance areas are proposed to be
extremely mild. 3. The widths of the paseos are relatively wide compared
to the amount of stormwater they are required to carry. Nevertheless, the
City will insist that adequate and specific maintenance provisions be
incorporated into the Home Owners Association responsibilities. Further,
the conveyance areas shall be designed to the satisfaction of the General
Manager-Chief Engineer with respect to plan-form & cross-section
geometry and access to both sides of any channels/swales carrying
significant amount of floodwater.
3.1.A precise description of the facilities to be maintained under the
agreement and exact language of the easement/s for the drainage
facilities. 3.2.The specific uses and maintenance activities within the
various channels, conveyance areas, and access roads/trails. (For
example, some areas may be used by the public and some areas only
entered by landscaping crews.) 3.3.The entity/entities that would
indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Flood Control District, and the
City of Menifee against any claims or liability resulting from the
42
construction, operation, maintenance and all other uses of the drainage
facilities. 3.4.The appropriate coverage and of types insurance policies
required. 3.5.The process by which any proposed modifications to the
conveyance areas would be reviewed and approved. 3.6.Access rights for
the City for inspection purposes. 3.7.A clause providing that if the City is
ever forced to assume the maintenance responsibility for the drainage
facilities, ownership of the facilities will fall to the City.
4. The Specific Plan proposes to divert onsite storm runoff from about 112
acres located north of McCall Boulevard and east of Menifee Road into
the Salt Creek/Winchester watershed to the south. The developer
proposes to offset these impacts by grading about 114 acres
northwesterly of Briggs Road and Case Road to drain towards the
Homeland watershed. This drainage scheme is acceptable to the City.
5. The Specific Plan proposes to construct an 84-inch storm drain to
outlet the flows from the greenbelt park drainage and detention basin
system along Lindenberger Road to the south. This facility will be
required to outlet directly into Salt Creek, which is located approximately
2,000 feet southerly of Simpson Road.
6. The entire property on the north side of Case/Matthews Road is
impacted by a FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) mapped
Zone A floodplain. Development within this floodplain will require the
applicant to process a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR). This
will require the preparation and submittal of an extensive
hydrologic/hydraulic analysis prior to the approval of tentative map
proposals unless the CLOMR has been processed by another
development or previously by the District.
7. Planning Areas 1 through 13 located on north side of Case/Matthews
Road and southerly of McLaughlin Road will be subject to severe flooding
damage until flood control facilities have been constructed upstream. The
development of Planning Areas 1 through 13 will require the construction
of the proposed Homeland/Romoland ADP facilities Line A, and LineA-4.
8. The City will not allow the issuance of grading permits nor allow
recordation of the final map for Planning Areas 1 through 13 until the
plans for Line 1, Line A, and Briggs Road detention basin have been
approved, bonds have been posted, and the offsite right-of-way acquired.
Alternatively, if a Community Facilities District (CFD) is formed to
construct the facilities listed above, then map recordation and grading
permits will be allowed when the construction contracts for these facilities
are awarded. Occupancy will not be granted for any unit until all
downstream facilities are functional.
The developer shall be responsible for the maintenance of these facilities
until their maintenance is transferred to either the City or the Community
43
Facilities District.
A separate means of mitigating for increased runoff would not be
necessary for onsite flows that drain to Line A given that said facility is
considered to be an adequate outlet.
9. The master drainage plan for the Specific Plan shows proposed storm
drains to collect onsite runoff from Planning Areas 1 through 9 and to
discharge the flows towards the south into the proposed Line A. These
facilities shall be extended further north to collect offsite storm runoff from
the vicinity north of Highway 74 so that future developments from the area
have an adequate facility to outlet their respective onsite flows.
10. The current alignment for the proposed Romoland Line A is sited
along the existing low ditch located just north of McLaughlin Road. The
alignment for this major ADP facility is currently being revised. The
developer should be aware the Planning Areas adjacent to the Line A
alignment could be affected depending upon the location of the final
alignment adopted for Line A.
147. Basin Maintenance. This project proposes debris basins, green belt channels
or other facilities which will require maintenance by a public agency, or a
guarantee of maintenance by a public agency in the event the responsible
private party fails to meet its maintenance obligations. These types of flood
control facilities are selected at the discretion of the applicant to complement
the nature of the proposed development, and do not have a regional benefit
commensurate with the maintenance costs which are anticipated to be
excessively high. Therefore, to ensure the public is not unduly burdened for
future costs, prior to final approval or recordation of this case, the City will
require an acceptable financial mechanism be implemented to provide for
reimbursement of maintenance costs in perpetuity. This may consist of a
mechanism to assess individual benefitting property owners, or other means
approved by the City. If an acceptable maintenance mechanism cannot be
developed, the project should be redesigned to eliminate all high maintenance
cost features.
148. Map Flood Hazard Report. TR 34406 is a proposal to divide 231.9 acres into
residential lots, open space and future commercial development. The site is
near Winchester west of Briggs Rd. and south of Mathews Rd. The tract
consists of Planning Areas 14, 18, 19, 20, 24 and 25 of Specific Plan 301-A2,
Menifee Valley Ranch.
This site receives storm runoff from a tributary area north of the railroad tracks.
These flows are delivered to the tract via a railroad culvert north of the
Greenbelt Buffer lot. The Specific Plan proposes to divert acreage
northwesterly of Briggs Road and Case Road to drain north towards the
Homeland watershed. This drainage scheme is acceptable to the City.
However, until the diversion grading and Line A to the north is constructed, this
site will still receive flows which are proposed to be collected in a storm drain
and conveyed through the tract. The applicant proposes to drain the site via
44
storm drains. The majority of the site would drain to the existing Heritage Lake
to the west. A small portion of the tract at the southeast corner would drain
southerly to another Menifee Valley SP tract to the south (Tract 34180).
The applicant proposes to mitigate for water quality the portion of the site that
drains to Heritage Lake with a combination of catch basin inserts and the
capture of the water quality volume within the existing Lake. The applicant has
demonstrated that the Lake has capacity for this purpose for all of the tributary
area. The Lake and amenities for the specific plan are maintained by the HOA
and Valley Wide Recreation and Park District.
The small portion of the tract draining to Tract 34180 will be treated within that
tract. If this tract is to be constructed prior to Tract 34180 a minor change or
revised map may be required to provide for onsite water quality treatment for
this portion of the tract otherwise this phase shall wait for the construction of
Tract 34180.
The site is located within the bounds of the Salt Creek
Channel/Winchester/North Hemet Area Drainage Plan (ADP) for which
drainage fees have been established by the Board of Supervisors. Applicable

158. Submit Final WQMP>Prelim. In compliance with Santa Ana Region and San
Diego Region Regional Water Quality Control Board Orders, and Beginning
January 1, 2005, projects submitted within the western region of the
unincorporated area of Riverside County for discretionary approval will be
required to comply with the Water Quality Management Plan for Urban Runoff
(WQMP). The WQMP addresses post-development water quality impacts from
new development and redevelopment projects. The WQMP requirements will
vary depending on the project's geographic location (Santa Ana, Santa
Margarita or Whitewater River watersheds). The WQMP provides detailed
guidelines and templates to assist the developer in completing the necessary
studies. These documents are available on-line at:
www.floodcontrol.co.riverside.ca.us under Programs and Services, Stormwater
Quality.
To comply with the WQMP a developer must submit a "Project Specific"
46
WQMP. This report is intended to a) identify potential post-project pollutants
and hydrologic impacts associated with the development; b) identify proposed
mitigation measures (BMPs) for identified impacts including site design, source
control and treatment control post-development BMPs; and c) identify
sustainable funding and maintenance mechanisms for the aforementioned
BMPs. A template for this report is included as 'exhibit A' in the WQMP. final
Project Specific WQMP must be approved by the City prior to issuance of
building or grading permits.
Projects requiring Project Specific WQMPs are required to submit a
PRELIMINARY Project Specific WQMP along with the land-use application
package. The format of the PRELIMINARY report shall mimic the
format/template of the final report but can be less detailed. For example, points
a, b & c above must be covered, rough calculations supporting sizing must be
included, and footprint/locations for the BMPs must be identified on the
tentative exhibit. Detailed drawings will not be required. This preliminary project
specific WQMP must be approved by the City prior to issuance of
recommended conditions of approval.
The developer has submitted a report that minimally meets the criteria for a
preliminary project specific WQMP. The report will need significant revisions to
meet the requirements of a final project specific WQMP. Also, it should be
noted that if 401 certification is necessary for the project, the Water Quality
Control Board may require additional water quality measures.
159. WQMP Establish Maintenance Entity. This project proposes BMP facilities
that will require maintenance by a public agency or homeowner's association.
To ensure that the public is not unduly burdened with future costs, prior to final
approval or recordation of this case, the City will require an acceptable financial
mechanism be implemented to provide for maintenance of treatment control
BMPs in perpetuity. This may consist of a mechanism to assess individual
benefiting property owners, or other means approved by the City. The site's
treatment control BMPs must be shown on the project's improvement plans -
either the street plans, grading plans, or landscaping plans. The type of
improvement plans that will show the BMPs will depend on the selected
maintenance entity.
