Palm Desert City Council Members,
I am commenting on agenda item 26 the Drive‐Thru ordinance should be lifted from the city of Palm Desert as it imposes
on people with disabilities and elderly communities. This ordinance discriminates and prevents folks from accessing
businesses. I feel strongly that this ordinance also hurts local economy, preventing new businesses from coming to Palm
Desert and sending the constituents to other cities in the Coachella Valley to spend money.
I would also like to comment on Agenda item 28. Although I support the zoning and districting of an overlay district in
the San Pablo and University Park areas, I feel strongly that Palm Desert should add the creation of voting districts to this
special election. The city has ignored the pleas of the citizens for too long. To serve the unheard and marginalized voices
of the city, Palm Desert needs to create voting districts and offer the citizens the chance to elect people that look like
them and hold their same values.
