square foot portion of APN 640-02-003 dir'2ctly
adjacent to the west side of Highway III , east
of the toe of slope and west of Parkview
Drive/Highway Ill .
Mr. Diaz explained that this action was to clarify an error brought
on by mis-intent of Measure E. Staff recommended adoption of a
resolution recommending approval of the change of zone to city
council . Mr. Diaz also explained that this would allow the applicant
to submit plans for that property.
Commissioner Richards asked if it were appropriate for commission to
take action on an item under study by the federal courts. Mr.
Connor asked staff if this matter were being handled by their
office. Mr. Diaz explained that it was being handled in Los Angeles.
Commissioner Downs suggested that commission move this item to city '
council with no action.
Chairman Erwood opened the public testimony and asked if anyone
wished to addressed the commission in FAVOR or OPPOSITION.
11S. TAMAR STEIN, 2049 Century Park E. #2800, Los Angeles,
representing the property owner, recommended that all the
property. be rezoned to C-l . Ms. Stein spoke in favor, but felt
the action was too little, too late.
Chairman Erwood closed the public testimony. y
Commissioner Richards spoke against taking an action at planning
commission level because it is currently involved in litigation
regarding zoning.
Chairman Erwood spoke in favor of the change of zone. He explained
that when the voters passed the ordinance for the zone change, the
whole area was not to be included and this action would remedy the
error.
Commissioner Ladlow asked what the present zoning was and Mr. Diaz
replied hillside planned residential .

A. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Waive further reading and pass to second reading.
B. DISCUSSION:
The subject site is a portion of the 13 acre predominantly hillside
property for which a restaurant proposal was denied by the city council
in 1984. At that time the entire parcel was zoned C-1 . Following the
denial , an initiative was passed by the voters prohibiting any
commercial uses of the hillside. Hillside was defined as areas west of
the toe of slope. In March of 1985 a general plan amendment and change
of zone was passed redesignating the area hillside planned residential
in compliance with the initiative. Inadvertly, approximately 7,000
square feet of flat area east of the toe of slope adjacent to Highway
Ill was included in the change of zone. This area does not meet the
hillside definition and is identical in nature to currently commercially
zoned and developed parcels to the south along Painters Path. Without
question this particular flat area adjacent to Highway Ill is not
appropriate for residential use.

testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be
heard, said planning commission did find the following facts and reasons to
exist to justify a recommendation of approval :
1 . The subject property is not within the hillside, therefore the
current HPR zoning is inappropriate. Commercial development of the
site would better serve the public health, safety and general
welfare than the current HPR designation.
2. The subject property is relatively flat, is adjacent to a state
highway and is identical in nature to other commercially zoned and
developed property in the vicinity.
3. The C-1 General Commercial zoning for the designated portion of the
property is consistent with the general plan, West Hills Specific
Plan and Proposition E passed November 6, 1984.
NOW, THEREFORE. BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
Palm Desert. California, as follows:
1 . That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute the
findings of the commission in this case.
2. That the planning commission does hereby recommend to city council
approval of a negative declaration of environmental impact Exhibit
"A" and change of zone 87- 10 Exhibit "B".

Request for approval of a negative declaration
of environmental impact and change of zone from
Hillside Planned Residential (HPR) to General
Commercial (C- 1 ) for the approximately 7000
square foot portion of APN 640-02-003 directly
adjacent to the west side of Highway III , east
of the toe of slope and west of Parkview
Drive/Highway III .
Mr. Diaz explained that this action was to clarify an error brought
on by mis-intent of Measure E. Staff recommended adoption of a
resolution recommending approval of the change of zone to city
council . Mr. Diaz also explained that this would allow the applicant
to submit plans for that property.
Commissioner Richards asked if it were appropriate for commission to
take action on an item under study by the federal courts. Mr.
Connor asked staff if this matter were being handled by their
office. Mr. Diaz explained that it was being handled in Los Angeles.
Commissioner Downs suggested that commission move this item to city
council with no action.
Chairman Erwood opened the public testimony and asked if anyone
wished to addressed the commission in FAVOR or OPPOSITION.
MS . TAMAR STEIN, 2.049 Century Park E. #2800, Los Angeles,
representing the property owner , recommended that all the
property be rezoned to C-1 . Ms. Stein spoke in. favor, but felt
the action was ton little, too late.
Chairman Erwond closed the public testimony.
Commissioner Richards spoke against taking an action at planning
commission level because it is currently involved in litigation
regarding zoning.
Chairman Erwood spoke in favor of the change of zone. He explained
that when the voters passed the ordinance for the zone change, the
whole area was not to be included and this action would remedy the
error.
Commissioner Ladlow asked what the present zoning was and Mr. Diaz
replied hillside planned residential .

those type of uses should be subject to a conditional use permit for
compatibility.
Chairman Erwood opened the public testimony and asked if anyone
present wished to speak in FAVOR or OPPOSITION to the proposed.
There being no one, the public testimony was closed.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
DATE: September 1 , 1987
CASE NO: C/Z 87-10
APPLICANT: City of Palm Desert
REQUEST: Negative declaration of environmental impact and change of zone
from Hillside Planned Residential (HPR) to General Commercial
(C- 1 ) for that approximately 7,000 square foot portion of APN
640-02-003 directly adjacent to the west side of Highway III ,
east of the toe of slope and west of the Parkv i ew/H i ghway 1 1 I
intersection.
I. BACKGROUND:
The subject site is a portion of the 13 acre predominantly hillside
property for which a restaurant proposal was denied by the city council in
1984 . At that time the entire parcel was zoned C- I . Following the
denial . an initiative was passed by the voters prohibiting any commercial
uses of the hillside. Hillside was defined as areas west of the toe of
slope. In March of 1985 a general plan amendment and change of zone was
passed redesignating the area Hillside Planned Residential in compliance
with the initiative. Inadvertly, approximately 7,000 square feet of flat
area east of the toe of slope adjacent to Highway III was included in the
change of zone. This area does not meet the hillside definition and is
identical in nature to currently commercially zoned and developed parcels
to the south along Painters Path. Without question this particular flat
area adjacent to Highway Ili is not appropriate for residential use.
II . RECOMMENDATION:
Approve findings and adopt Planning Commission Resolution No.
recommending to city council approval of a negative declaration of
environmental impact and a change of zone from HPR to C- I .

MS. MARY BROOKS, 73-333 Country Club, representing Roy Barbetty
and Ira Johnson, stated that they are strongly opposed to this
use as one of the most highly visible corners in the city,
other development would enhance the site, an office complex is
being development for the north side and the complex would look
Into the rear of the gas station, and felt that If Arco was
concerned about beautification, they would not have let the
present site deteriorate, and that Increased traffic on Portola
and access from Highway III would create a serious traffic
problem. She also indicated that she did not want to work
across from a gas station and felt there were better uses for
the site.
MRS. MERTYL BRADDOCK, 73-005 Shadow Mountain, stated that she
travels that road and felt that it would be dangerous to
Increase traffic there.
Mr. Yamasaki addressed concerns brought up by the public testimony
and Chairman Erwood then closed the public testimony.
Commissioner Richards felt that this was a better site, noted that
' this was the fourth or fifth revision and that the facility will have
restrooms and will be a Spanish style design. He felt that It was
time to move this project on its way. Commissioner Richards also
Indicated that he would like to see it come back with a curb cut on
Portola. Commissioner Downs agreed.
Action:
Moved by Commissioner Richards, seconded by Commissioner Downs,
finding the use acceptable and instructing staff to prepare a
resolution of approval by minute motion. Carried 3-2 (Chairman

Mr. Diaz outlined the salient points of the staff report.
Commissioner Richards noted that public works has a problem with
entrances onto Portola. Mr. Holtz stated that this was correct and
indicated that stacking of cars at that intersection was a problem.
Commission further discussed ingress, egress and traffic.
Chairman Erwood opened the public testimony and asked If the
applicant wished to address the commission. I
MR. CRAIG YAMASAKI asked for and received further clarification
of public works concerns. He felt their plan was viable and
expressed a desire to make the project work from both points of
view. He stated that they would remove the other station.
Commissioner Ladlow asked for and received clarification regarding
Highway III access and parking.
Chairman Erwood asked if anyone wished to speak in FAVOR or
OPPOSITION to the proposed.
MR. SANDY BAUM, 45-800 Deep Canyon Drive, Palm Desert, felt
there were traffic problems at Portola and Goleta; he also felt
that the Shell station corner was one of the busiest corners and
did not seem to create a problem; he discussed curb cuts and
access and felt that there were no problems today in going In or
out at the existing site; he also indicated that staff was
overacting and felt trying to put in a curb cut on Alessandro
was not realistic.

\ PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. _
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING TO
CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF A NEGATIVE DECLARATION
OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT AND CHANGE OF ZONE FROM
HILLSIDE PLANNED RESIDENTIAL (HPR) TO GENERAL
COMMERCIAL FOR THAT APPROXIMATELY 7,000 SQUARE
FOOT PORTION OF APN 640-02-003 DIRECTLY ADJACENT
TO THE WEST SIDE OF HIGHWAY III , EAST OF THE TOE
OF SLOPE AND WEST OF THE PARK VIEW DRIVE/HIGHWAY
Ill INTERSECTION.
CASE NO: C/Z 87-10
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Desert, California,
did on the 1st day of September, 1987 hold a duly noticed public hearing to
consider approval of a negative declaration of environmental impact and change
of zone from Hillside Planned Residential (HPR) to General Commercial (C-1 ) .
WHEREAS, said application has complied with the requirements of the "City
of Palm Desert Procedure for Implementation of the California Environmental
Quality Act, Resolution No. 80-89", in that the director of environmental
services has determined that the project will not have an adverse impact on the
environment and a negative declaration of environmental impact has been
prepared.
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be
heard, said planning commission did find the following facts and reasons to
exist to justify a recommendation of approval :
1 . The subject property is not within the hillside, therefore the
current HPR zoning is inappropriate. Commercial development of the
site would better serve the public health, safety and general
welfare than the current HPR designation.
2. The subject property is relatively flat, is adjacent to a state
highway and is identical in nature to other commercially zoned and
developed property in the vicinity.
3. The C-1 General Commercial zoning for the designated portion of the
property is consistent with the general plan, West Hills Specific
Plan and Proposition E passed November 6, 1984.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
Palm Desert, California, as follows:
1 . That the above recitations cj^e;. true and correct and constitute the
findings of the commis ipn iri"this case.
2. That the planning .commission does hereby recommend to city council
approval of a negative declaration of environmental impact Exhibit
"A" and change of'zone 87-10 Exhibit "B".
