4.1 Aesthetics
Environmental Impact Analysis Aesthetics 4.1 Aesthetics This section evaluates the potential impacts of the proposed 2021 LRDP related to aesthetics, including potential impacts on scenic vistas, visual character and quality, and impacts from light and glare. 4.1.1 Environmental Setting Regional Setting The UCR campus is located on the eastern side of Riverside, in western Riverside County, California, an urbanized area surrounded by natural landscape features, hills, ridgelines, and parkland. The higher elevation hills shape the visual outline of the city’s viewshed. Specifically, the La Sierra/Norco Hills, Mount Rubidoux, Box Springs Mountains, Sycamore Canyon, and the many smaller ranges south of the city provide a visual backdrop as viewed from streets, buildings, and open spaces. The Santa Ana River watercourse and riverbed is just north of the city’s boundary line and serves as a significant natural habitat for many species of birds and other animals. It also forms a visual landmark for visitors and residents who can view this river (City of Riverside 2007a). Riverside is characterized by a pattern of auto-oriented, low- to medium-density land uses in an established urban environment typical of southern California, with areas of higher density and diverse uses in the downtown area, along Market Street and Mission Inn Avenue, approximately 3 miles from campus. Parks and open space flank both sides of the northeastern area of the city, with Mount Rubidoux Park and Fairmount Park on the western side and Box Springs Mountain Reserve Park and Sycamore Canyon Wilderness Park on the eastern side. Mount Rubidoux is an approximately 1,331-foot-tall peak just west of downtown Riverside that offers views of the city and surrounding area, trails, and historic landmarks such as the Peace Bridge and the Sierra Cross (Rivers and Lands Conservancy 2018). -

MULTIPLE SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN Annual Report 2015
Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority MULTIPLE SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN Annual Report 2015 Cover Description On February 27, 2015, the RCA acquired a property known as TNC/Monte Cristo. The project is located north of Avocado Mesa Road in the unincorporated Tenaja area of the County of Riverside. The property size is 22.92 acres and was purchased with State and Federal grant funding. The property is located within Rough Step Unit 5, MSHCP Criteria Cell number 7029, within Tenaja of the Southwest Area Plan. The vegetation for this property consists of grassland, coastal sage scrub, and woodland and forest habitat. Within this area, species known to exist, include California red-legged frog, Bell’s sage sparrow, Cooper’s hawk, grasshopper sparrow, bobcat and mountain lion. The property is adjacent to previously conserved lands on the south and east and connects to conserved lands to the north and west.

Native American Settlement to 1969
29 Context: Native American Settlement to 1969 Francisco Patencio outside the roundhouse, c. 1940. Source: Palm Springs Historical Society. FINAL DRAFT – FOR CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP 30 CONTEXT: NATIVE AMERICAN SETTLEMENT TO 196923 The earliest inhabitants of the Coachella Valley are the Native people known ethnohistorically as the Cahuilla Indians. The Cahuilla territory includes the areas from the San Jacinto Mountains, the San Gorgonia Pass, and the desert regions reaching east to the Colorado River. The Cahuilla language is part of the Takic branch of the Uto-Aztecan language family and all the Cahuilla groups speak a mutually intelligible despite different dialects. The Cahuilla group that inhabited the Palm Springs area are known as the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. The Cahuilla name for the area that is now Palm Springs is Sec-he, “boiling water,” named for the hot springs located in what is currently the center of the Palm Springs business district. The springs have always provided clean water, bathing, and a connection to the spiritual world, and were used for ceremonial and healing purposes.24 The Cahuilla people refer to themselves as ‘ivi’lyu’atum and are ethnographically divided into two patrilineal moieties: the Wildcats and the Coyotes. Each moiety was further divided into clans which are made up of lineages. Lineages had their own territory and hunting rights within a larger clan territory. There are a number of lineages in the Palm Springs area, which each have religious and political autonomy. Prior to European contact, Cahuilla communities established summer settlements in the palm-lined mountain canyons around the Coachella valley; oral histories and archaeological evidence indicates that they settled in the Tahquitz Canyon at least 5,000 years ago.25 The Cahuilla moved each winter to thatched shelters clustered around the natural mineral hot springs on the valley floor. -
Chapter IV. ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES
Chapter IV. ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES City of Banning General Plan WATER RESOURCES ELEMENT PURPOSE The Water Resources Element addresses water quality, availability and conservation for the City’s current and future needs. The Element also discusses the importance of on-going coordination and cooperation between the City, Banning Heights Mutual Water Company, High Valley Water District, San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency and other agencies responsible for supplying water to the region. Topics include the ground water replenishment program, consumptive demand of City residents, and wastewater management and its increasingly important role in the protection of ground water resources. The goals, policies and programs set forth in this element direct staff and other City officials in the management of this essential resource. BACKGROUND The Water Resources Element is directly related to the Land Use Element, in considering the availability of water resources to meet the land use plan; and has a direct relationship to the Flooding and Hydrology Element, in its effort to protect and enhance groundwater recharge. Water issues are also integral components of the following elements: Police and Fire Protection, Economic Development, Emergency Preparedness, and Water, Wastewater and Utilities. The Water Resources Element addresses topics set forth in California Government Code Section 65302(d). Also, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 21083.2(g), the City is empowered to require that adequate research and documentation be conducted when the potential for significant impacts to water and other important resources exists. Watersheds The westernmost part of the planning area is located at the summit of the San Gorgonio Pass, which divides two major watersheds: the San Jacinto River Watershed to the west and the Salton Sea watershed to the east. -
5.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES the Information Contained Within This
5.9 Biological Resources 5.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The information contained within this section is summarized from the Moreno Valley General Plan EIR Biological Report (Merkel & Associates, September 2004). The report is provided in Volume II Appendix E of this EIR. The existing biological resources documented in this report were determined through an extensive review of the most current, available biological literature and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) data available for the planning area. Previous biological surveys conducted by Merkel & Associates (M&A) staff, as well as biological information gathered by other consultants for projects within Moreno Valley, were further reviewed. Vegetation communities were primarily identified based on the regional GIS data incorporated into the MSHCP (KTU+A and PSBS 1995). Floral and faunal species potential presence was determined based on vegetation community presence/absence and knowledge of species requirements. The assessment of presence or potential presence of sensitive biological resources was also based on MSHCP data, which incorporated California Natural Diversity Database records for sensitive species. In addition to the MSHCP and vegetation community information, the following sources were consulted to aid in determining faunal presence/absence: USFWS 2000b, Ericksen and Belk 1999, Sauer et al. 1996, Sauer et al. 2000, Zeiner et al. 1988, Zeiner et al. 1990a and 1990b. M&A also contacted individuals with special expertise to determine the likelihood of species presence for certain groups (e.g., bats). Additionally, M&A biologists, Craig Reiser and Diana Jensen, conducted field investigations in April 2001 to ground truth portions of the regional GIS vegetation data and record locations of identified sensitive species. -
