CUP190065

Conditional Use Permit No. 190065 is a proposal by Rustic Rentals LLC to re-entitle an existing 19 unit motel and expand the facility by adding 10 additional units and a manager's unit on a 1.97 acre site in Idyllwild, Riverside County. The expansion will bring the total to 29 units, with the 10 new units constructed in three phases in the eastern portion of the site. Parking and support improvements are scheduled for completion during the first phase. The project site consists of parcel APN 563-250-039, which was previously two separate parcels. The project has undergone extensive environmental and technical reviews, including a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment that found no recognized environmental conditions and a geotechnical investigation confirming construction feasibility. A Biological Resources Assessment and a Phase I Cultural Resources Assessment were conducted to ensure compliance with CEQA and county guidelines, with recommendations for oak mitigation and nesting bird surveys. Additionally, a Project Specific Water Quality Management Plan and a CalEEMod emissions analysis have been developed to manage drainage and air quality impacts. The Riverside County Planning Commission has issued a Mitigated Negative Declaration stating there are no significant environmental effects, with a public hearing scheduled for November 4, 2026.
