The Temecula Education Center (TEC) planned development overlay district (PDO-10) is intended to provide regulations for the safe and efficient operation, and creative design of a unique commercial area within the city. The area is unique in its location and mix of proposed uses. This special overlay zoning district regulation is intended to permit a range of higher educational uses, along with high density residential both for sale and for rent, and a range of neighborhood and project serving commercial uses. Supplemental performance standards have also been provided to ensure compatibility with the adjacent neighborhoods and to protect adjoining uses from excessive noise, odor, smoke, toxic materials, and other potentially objectionable impacts. It is the intent of the city to use these special regulations to supplement the regulations of land uses and development already existing within the adopted development code.

Notes:
*
Due to the type of lots created for this development, the allowable floor area ratio is higher than typically allowed. The building sites that would have this ratio do not have on-site parking within the property lines, thus the density of development on the individual lot is artificially higher than a site that includes its own parking.
B. 
In addition to the standard requirements for parking facility layout and dimensions contained in Section 17.24.050(B)(3) and (4), the following special landscape provisions will be allowed:
In lieu of landscape planter fingers between the parking spaces, a continuous planter at the head of the parking row is allowed. These planters shall have an inside dimension width of five feet and shall have a length equal to the width of the adjoining parking spaces. It is the intent of this layout to provide a continuous row of trees to screen the views across the open parking areas. At a minimum, the required number of trees will be maintained.
C. 
In lieu of the maximum density allowed within the H residential district, the density allowed for the residential portions of the Temecula Education Center planned development overlay district is twenty-seven DU per acre.
D. 
Due to the unique nature of this education project, the use of turf within the common areas of the commercial portions of the project is a benefit to the campus nature of the plan. Therefore, in addition to the requirements in Section 17.12.060, the quantity of turf areas will be allowed to exceed the typical quantities inferred in the requirements and standards for the commercial common areas only including the amphitheater.
E. 
In lieu of the standard requirements for private open space per unit, contained in Section 17.06.040, the following private open space areas will be allowed per unit type.1
