Executive Summary
On May 24, 2012, the request was continued to allow staff to meet with the surrounding
residents to discuss the concerns with the proposed change of zone. On May 30, 2012,
staff held a meeting with Mayor Spiegel, Councilmember Harnik, Assistant City Attorney
Robert Hargreaves, and many residents of the surrounding area to discuss the Housing
Element and the State Law requirements for the change of zone. Staff explained that the
next Housing Element update is required to be approved by October 2013, and that staff will
begin working on the update with a consultant after the July 1 2012 start of the next fiscal
year. Staff stated that the residents in this area will be contacted to be part of a community
interest group to study this area with the intent of potentially modifying the area location or
reducing the zoning back to Planned Residential 5 units per acre.
Following the meeting with the residents, staff contacted the State Department of Housing
and Community Development (HCD) to discuss the possibility of modifying the actual
parcels identified in the current Housing Element to comply with State Law and address the
concerns of the surrounding residents. Based on the discussion with HCD staff, the request
has been modified by reducing the total area from 38 acres to 28 acres by eliminating the
two, five-acre parcels to the south of Shepherd Lane. The new area is illustrated in Exhibit A
in the ordinance attached to the staff report. Compliance with the intent of the Housing
Element can still be demonstrated, since more dwelling units will be provided than are
called for in that document.
Background
On May 12, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2011-24 approving the current
Housing Element for the 2006-2014 planning period. The Housing Element is the only
General Plan Element that is required to be reviewed and approved by the State. After the
City Council approved the current Housing Element, it was submitted to the Department of
Housing and Community Development (HCD) for review and approval.
On July 7, 2011, HCD approved the City's current Housing Element. As part of the new
requirements by the State, each city must identify the parcels available for housing, and
demonstrate that there is sufficient land to accommodate the Regional Housing Needs
Assessment (RHNA) units in the Very Low, Low, and Moderate Income categories. This
analysis requires cities to rezone lands to a minimum of 20 units per acre to accommodate
the units. In addition, these rezones must be complete within one year of HCD's approval
date (by July 7, 2012) to keep the Housing Element in compliance with State Law.
On April 12, 2012, staff presented a change of zone from Planned Residential — 5 units per
acre (PR 5) to Planned Residential — 22 units per acre (PR 22) for 38.63 acres of vacant
land located on the south side of Gerald Ford Drive adjacent to the Riverside County Sheriff
Station to the west and single-family development to the east. The area is identified as area
B in the approved Housing Element, and the request was initiated by staff to be in
compliance with the Housing Element. The City Council continued this case to allow staff
time to research possible options with the density in this location.

June 14, 2012
On May 24, 2012, staff presented a modified request from PR 22 to PR 20, the minimum
density that is allowed under State Law for compliance with the Housing Element. At this
meeting, residents in this area expressed concerns about the change of zone and the late
noticing. Many questions were raised during the public hearing. The public hearing was
closed, and the case was continued to June 14 with staff direction to set up a meeting with
the surrounding residents, City Council members and the City Attorney.
On May 30, 2012, staff held a meeting with Mayor Spiegel, Councilmember Harnik,
Assistant City Attorney Robert Hargreaves, and many residents in the surrounding area.
During the meeting, staff explained the history of the Housing Element and that the most
recent changes in State Law require the City to identify areas of vacant land in the Housing
Element to be rezoned for higher density. Staff explained that this area was identified in the
approved Housing Element, and that the property must be rezoned within one year of July
7, 2011, to be in compliance with State Law, or the City would have to reopen the current
Housing Element and seek approval by HCD again.
If the area is not rezoned by July 7, 2012, the City will be out of compliance with the
Housing Element. If the Housing Element is out of compliance, then the State will require
the City to keep this area in the next Housing Element update in 2013, as well other
hardships described at the public hearing on May 24, 2012. Carrying the 520 affordable
units will more than double the required number of units for all housing types, and more
than triple the requirement for affordable units in the next Housing Element.cycle.
After the presentation and discussion, staff informed the residents that this area can be
restudied and potentially modified for down zoning as part of the next Housing Element
update, which is required to be approved by October, 2013. Staff also invited the residents
to be part of the update process, which will begin sometime after the summer, by being a
formal community interest group to restudy this area for potential down zoning based on the
needs of the next Housing Element. The RHNA units for the next Housing Element are one
tenth the number of the current Housing Element, and staff believes that the subject area
may be modified or removed from the high density requirement.
Following the meeting with the surrounding residents, staff contacted Mr. Mario Angel at
HCD about the possibility of modifying the area identified in Housing Element. Based on the
information provided by Mr. Angel, staff modified the area by removing the two, five-acre
parcels directly south of the residential community on Shepherd Lane. This will reduce the
total area by 10 acres while maintaining compliance with the Housing Element and State
Law. The density will meet the State's requirement of 20 units per acre, yet will yield more
than the 520 dwelling units identified in the Housing Element.
Environmental Review
The proposed change of zone is being proposed in accordance with the approved Housing
Element and State Law. Therefore, the request is statutorily exempt for the purposes of
CEQA and no further review is necessary at this time.

A. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL of recommendation to the City Council for
General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone for a parcel on the Hillside
to Open Space for conservation, and a Change of Zone for four
properties for conformance with the existing General Plan Land Use
designation. Case Nos. GPA AND C/Z 12-76 (City of Palm Desert,
Applicant).
Mr. Bagato stated this was a General Plan Amendment for one property and
a Change of Zone to all four. He said staff has identified properties whose
General Plan designations were changed, but the Zoning Map revisions
never followed the changes; therefore, this was more of a housekeeping or
cleanup process. He pointed out the Legal Notices attached to the staff
report identifies all four areas as Exhibit A, which was an error. The Exhibit
titles have been changed and are identified as Exhibits A through D, which
are also attached to the staff report. He displayed all Exhibits and highlighted
the recommended changes, which are as follows: 1) Exhibit A is for property
at Gerald Ford Drive, Cook Street, and Frank Sinatra Drive. It is referred to
as the University area. It is currently designated Public Facility/University in
the General Plan, but was never changed to Public Institution on the zoning
map. It is zoned PR-5 and staff is requesting to change it to Public (P); 2)
Exhibit B is a 19-acre site on the east side of Portola Avenue that was part of
the Desert Willow Master Plan and designated Resort/Hotel Commercial; it
was initially shown as a sports complex for the Big League Dreams, before
that project got built in Cathedral City. However, it's currently zoned Single-
Family/Mobile Home, and under the Resort. Commercial designation, you
can still have residential development, but more for a Planned Community
that fits with the rest of the Desert Willow Master Plan. Therefore, staff is
requesting a Change of Zone from R-1-M to PR-5, which is consistent with
2
MINUTES -�
PALM DESERT PLANN.AG COMMISSION MARCH 6, 2012
the Desert Willow Master Plan; 3) Exhibit C is related to the Housing
Element discussion that the City Council recently acted on. In 2009, the
Housing Element was updated and, as part of the requirement by State law,
the City was to change the property's zoning. However, staff realized a
couple of weeks ago that this area identified as Parcel B in the Housing
Element was not changed. It is currently zoned PR-5, and its one of the
sites on which the City is supposed to have developed about 600 dwelling
units. Therefore, staff is recommending a change from PR-5 to PR-22 to be
consistent with the Housing Element; 4) Exhibit D is a Hillside Planned
Residential property in the Cahuilla Hills. Currently it is designated Hillside
Residential in the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance; however, the
property was purchased with the intent of only being used for Open Space
Conservation. Staff is recommending a Change of Zone to Open Space to
meet the intended use of the purchase. In conclusion, he recommended the
Planning Commission provide approval of the proposed General Plan
Amendment and Changes of Zone. He offered to answer any questions.
Chair Campbell declared the public hearing open and invited public testimony
FAVORING or OPPOSING this matter. With no public testimony offered, he.,
declared the public hearing closed. `

Attention City Councilors' and Planning & Development,
As an owner of an executive home on Windflower we are adamantly
opposed to the new development adjacent the College View Estate property.
We have experienced a very strong neighborhood atmosphere on and around
our street and feel that our executive neighborhood is one of the nicer more
desirable mature areas of Palm Springs. Now with the proposed re-planning,
we feel that our neighborhood atmosphere will diminish significantly.
Considering that the residents of this proposed development may have lower
income, limited means of transportation and unsteady employment, a
neighborhood with nothing to do promotes devaluation and mischief: The
result of a high density project like that one proposed will bring a dark cloud
over the neighborhood. With the claustrophobic, negative feel you are
proposing, we fear a significant decrease of our very positive current
neighborhood atmosphere. Given the outcome of the devaluation of
properties from 2008 to now, another blow to the neighborhood with the
proposed developments, is a formula for another ghetto.
Again, we adamantly oppose the rezoning and further development of the
property adjacent to the College View Btate property.
We are a neighborhood, don't change it to your proposed ghetto.
Sincerely.

Legal Notice
Recommendation
Waive further reading and pass Ordinance No. 1240 to second
reading approving Change of Zone 12-76 as described in Exhibit A,
attached.
Commission Recommendation
On March 6, 2012, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed request and
recommended approval (5-0 vote).
Background
On April 12, 2012, the City Council continued a change of zone from Planned
Residential — 5 dwelling units per acre (PR 5) to Planned Residential —22 dwelling units
per acre (PR 22) for 38.63 acres of vacant land located on the south side of Gerald
Ford Drive adjacent to the .Riverside County Sheriff Station. When the item was
continued, staff stated that options would be researched for changing the zone for this
area. Staff has determined that since the area was identified in the Housing Element
Staff Report
Case No. C/Z 12-76
Page 2 of 2
April 12, 2012
approved by the State, the property must be rezoned to accommodate an increase in
density in order to be compliant with State law.
Staff was recommending twenty-two (22) units per acre, however, State Law only
requires a minimum of twenty (20) per acre. Based on State Law, staff is
recommending the change of zone be twenty (20) units per acre instead of twenty-two
(22), and that the City Council approve C/Z 12-76 in accordance with the City's
approved Housing Element and California State Law.
Environmental Review
The proposed change of zone is being proposed in accordance with the approved
Housing Element and State Law. Therefore, the request is statutorily exempt for the
purposes of CEQA and no further review is necessary at this time.
The subject properties are vacant, and there are no specific projects proposed at this
time. Any future development of this area will be reviewed by staff for full compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act.
Fiscal Analysis
The proposed request will not result in any fiscal impacts to the City.

Attention: City Council and Planning and Development
As President of Snowbird Vacation Properties and owner of Property at 74111 Windflower Crt and one
other property in Palm Desert, we strongly object and oppose any planned rezoning to Residential-20 of
the proposed adjacent College View Estate Lands. We purchased this property and have met all or the
Palm Desert guidelines, licenses and permits which permit our use of this property as an Executive Home
and occasional short term Executive rental for our high net worth clients and corporate customers.
To now be presented with a zoning change which would significantly impact density, desirability and
impact property value erosion is very concerning from an equity and functional use perspective of owners,
shareholders and clients.
There are many alternate vacant lands which are much more suitable for high density zoning in the Palm
Desert jurisdiction, and to consider the higher end private area communities such as College View
Estates within the proposed planning process does not match long term community planning objectives In
our perspective.
The entire region is just now recovering from a massive reduction in equity and property value impacts
from the 2008/2009 credit crisis and a proposal which would further impact those that have retained their
properties in good standing or those of us who have purchased in good faith for long term property
ownership is very concerning.
As President and Representative of the shareholders of Snowbird Vacation Properties we unanimously
oppose this proposal. All of our shareholders would have wanted to personally attend this meeting;
however, as seasonal owners we missed the opportunity by 1 week having just left our home May 15,
2012.
1 would request that our comments be forwarded to all council members and to the planning and
development office for communication at the meeting May 24, 2012 as SOUNDLY OPPOSING any such
zoning changes in this Executive Planned Community and Area.
On Behalf of Shareholders and Property Owners

RE: Case#C/Z12.76
APN: 694-300-001,694-300-005,694-310-005
Dear Councilmember,
Actions by the City of Palm Desert have been selfish and self-centered in relation to the property
they obtained in a trade with a developer off of Shepard Lane. All of the surrounding property is
zoned low density residential,but during planning for the Comprehensive General Plan in 2004
the city chose to include the parcels they owned in an extension of the Resort Hotel/Commercial
land use in the hopes that they would be able to sell this land to Marriott. If a developer had
owned this property and made a request to include this category in the Comprehensive General
Plan,or had requested a rezone to high density residential it would never have been allowed.
These actions are unreasonable for the neighborhood and smack of illegal Spot Zoning(see
attached)and Spot Planning by the City of Palm Desert.
More sensitive and thoughtful planning to preserve neighborhoods is required when dealing
with admittedly daunting financial issues facing the city. From what I understand the city is
planning this high density zoning in order to come into compliance with the State of California's
requirement of 4500 low to moderate income housing units in order to retain road funding. One
solution would be to look at the Comprehensive General Plan and rezone neighborhood
properties that qualify for higher density zoning. Another solution would be to find properties
to trade that would qualify for high density zoning.
The residential neighborhood off of Shepard Lane would be extremely adversely affected by an
unreasonable high-density rezone and not in keeping with the surrounding property uses.
When we purchased our home on Windflower Court last September we researched the
ownership and zoning for the vacant land behind us through our title agent. We were well
aware that the zoning allowed low density residential P.R:5 throughout the entire block from
Gerald Ford to Portola to Frank Sinatra to Monterey and felt we could live with the fact that
single family homes,in keeping with the neighborhood,would likely be built at some point in
the future. We cannot live with the idea of high density dwelling units in this low density
residential neighborhood.
It is in your power to uphold and preserve neighborhoods. We would appreciate your
thoughtful consideration and rejection of this unreasonable rezone.
Sincerely,
David and Joy Miller

2. Pass Ordinance No. 1239 to second reading
approving a Change of Zone to four (4) properties as
described in Exhibits A-E [verify], attached.
Commission Recommendation
On March 6, 2012, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed request and
recommended approval (5-0 vote).
Executive Summary
Approval of the staff recommendation will change the zoning and/or General Plan
designation on four properties formerly owned by the Redevelopment Agency to make
their land use regulations internally consistent and in keeping with the vision of the City
Council and the Agency Board at the time that they acquired the properties.
Backaround
The City of Palm Desert has undertaken an update of its Zoning Ordinance to make it
consistent with its General Plan. Over the past few months, staff has been working to
identify properties that are currently zoned for a land use that conflicts with the General
Plan, and/or its intended use.
This request will rezone four (4) properties located in different areas of the City, and
change the General Plan designation on one of the four properties. The properties are
all undeveloped land, and their locations are as follows:
a 127.7 Acres at Gerald Ford Drive and Frank Sinatra Drive, known as APNs 694-
160-003 and 694-200-001 (Exhibit A, attached).
a 19.5 Acres on the east side of Portola Avenue between Country Club Drive and
Frank Sinatra Drive, known as APN 620-400-028 (Exhibit B, attached).
a 38.6 Acres on the south side of Gerald Ford Drive adjacent to the Riverside
County Sheriff Station, known as APNs 694-300-001, 694-300-005 and 694-431-
005 (Exhibit C, attached).
a 3.8 Acres north of Upper Way West Drive on the hillside west of the cross on the
hill, known as APN 628-120-001 (Exhibit D).

Project Description
The request is to change the zoning, and the General Plan land use designation for one
(1) of the four properties, to be consistent with the intended use and land use
designations. Each property is being rezoned to different zoning designations for different
land uses. Exhibits have been prepared for each of the four properties to depict their
location and the proposed changes. The exhibits are as follows:
Exhibit A:
The vacant property totals 127.66 acres, and is currently designated Public
Facility/University (PF/U) in the General Plan, but is zoned Planned Residential,
five (5) units per acre. The property was acquired and set aside specifically to be
used for higher education, and to become part of the university that is currently
known as California State University San Bernardino Extension Campus. The
University of Riverside also has an extension campus at this location, but a
majority of the remaining land is intended for Cal State. The request is to rezone
the entire 127.66 acres to Public (P) to be consistent with the General Plan and
intended use.
Exhibit B
The vacant property totaling 19.53 acres is currently designated Resort/Hotel
Commercial (C-R/H) in the General Plan, but is zoned Single Family/Mobile
Home Residential. The property was designated Resort/Hotel Commercial as
part of the master plan approved for Desert Willow Golf Resort. The Resort
Commercial designation allows hotel, timeshare, recreational uses, or planned
residential communities with a Conditional Use, Permit. The master plan called
for the property to be used as a sports complex as a conditional use. The
request is to rezone the property to Planned Residential, five (5) units per acre to
be consistent with General Plan land designation and the approved master plan
for Desert Willow.
Exhibit C:
The vacant land on Gerald Ford Drive totals 38.63 acres, and was identified as
area "B" in the recently approved update of the Housing Element. Staff
determined that this area had been accidently omitted in the recent change of
zones approved by the Planning Commission and City Council. The request is to
change the zone from Planned Residential, five (5) units per acre to Planned
Residential, 22 units per acre to be consistent with the approved Housing
Element and State Law.

April 12, 2012
Exhibit D:
The vacant 3.76 acre site is located on the hillside, north of Upper Way West
Drive. The property is currently designated Residential, Hillside Reserve (R-HR)
in the General Plan and zoned Hillside Planned Residential (HPR). The property
was purchased by the City's former Redevelopment Agency for open space
conservation. The current land use designation and zoning would allow the
property to be developed, which conflicts with the intended purpose when
purchased by the former Redevelopment Agency. The request is to approve a
General Plan Amendment from R-HR to Open Space (OP) and a Change of
Zone from HPR to Open Space (OS).
Environmental Review
The proposed zone changes and one (1) amendment to the General Plan are being
done to clean up inconsistencies between intended land uses and zoning of these four
(4) properties. Therefore, the request is statutorily exempt for the purposes of CEQA
and no further review is necessary at this time.
All of the subject properties are vacant, and there are no specific projects proposed at
this time. Three of the subject properties will be developed over time, and any future
development will be reviewed by staff for full compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act.
Fiscal Analysis
The proposed request will not result in any fiscal impacts to the City.

A. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL of recommendation to the City Council for
General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone for a parcel on the Hillside
to Open Space for conservation, and a Change of Zone for four
properties for conformance with the existing General Plan Land Use
designation. Case Nos. GPA AND C/Z 12-76 (City of Palm Desert,
Applicant).
Mr. Bagato stated this was a General Plan Amendment for one property and
a Change of Zone to all four. He said staff has identified properties whose
General Plan designations were changed, but the Zoning Map revisions
never followed the changes; therefore, this was more of a housekeeping or
cleanup process. He pointed out the Legal Notices attached to the staff
report identifies all four areas as Exhibit A, which was an error. The Exhibit
titles have been changed and are identified as Exhibits A through D, which
are also attached to the staff report. He displayed all Exhibits and highlighted
the recommended changes, which are as follows: 1) Exhibit A is for property
at Gerald Ford Drive, Cook Street, and Frank Sinatra Drive. It is referred to
as the University area. It is currently designated Public Facility/University in
the General Plan, but was never changed to Public Institution on the zoning
map. It is zoned PR-5 and staff is requesting to change it to Public (P); 2)
Exhibit B is a 19-acre site on the east side of Portola Avenue that was part of
the Desert Willow Master Plan and designated Resort/Hotel Commercial; it
was initially shown as a sports complex for the Big League Dreams, before
that project got built in Cathedral City. However, it's currently zoned Single-
Family/Mobile Home, and under the Resort Commercial designation, you
can still have residential development, but more for a Planned Community
that fits with the rest of the Desert Willow Master Plan. Therefore, staff is
requesting a Change of Zone from R-1-M to PR-5, which is consistent with
2
MINUTES
PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION MARCH 6, 2012
the Desert Willow Master Plan; 3) Exhibit C is related to the Housing
Element discussion that the City Council recently acted on. In 2009, the
Housing Element was updated and, as part of the requirement by State law,
the City was to change the property's zoning. However, staff realized a
couple of weeks ago that this area identified as Parcel B in the Housing
Element was not changed. It is currently zoned PR-5, and it's one of the
sites on which the City is supposed to have developed about 600 dwelling
units. Therefore, staff is recommending a change from PR-5 to PR-22 to be
consistent with the Housing Element; 4) Exhibit D is a Hillside Planned
Residential property in the Cahuilla Hills. Currently it is designated Hillside
Residential in the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance; however, the
property was purchased with the intent of only being used for Open Space
Conservation. Staff is recommending a Change of Zone to Open Space to
meet the intended use of the purchase. In conclusion, he recommended the
Planning Commission provide approval of the proposed General Plan
Amendment and Changes of Zone. He offered to answer any questions.
Chair Campbell declared the public hearing open and invited public testimony
FAVORING or OPPOSING this matter. With no public testimony offered, �She�
declared the public hearing closed.
Commissioner Limont stated the case was well explained, it all made
tremendous good sense, and she was in favor.
Action:
Commissioner Limont moved, by Minute Motion, to approve GPA and C2
12-76. Motion was seconded by De Luna and carried by a 5-0 vote.
Commissioner Limont moved to waive further reading and Adopt Planning
Commission Resolution No. 2584, GPA and C2 12-26. Motion was seconded by

Recommendation
That the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. ,
recommending to City Council approval of GPA and C/Z 12-76.
Background
The City of Palm Desert has undertaken an update of its Zoning Ordinance to make it
consistent with its General Plan. Over the past few months, staff has been working on
identifying properties that are currently zoned for a land use that conflicts with the
General Plan, and/or its intended use. This request will rezone four (4) properties
located in different areas of the City. The properties are all undeveloped land, and their
locations are as follows:
• 127.7 Acres at Gerald Ford Drive and Frank Sinatra Drive, known as APNs 694-
160-003 and 694-200-001 (Exhibit A, attached).
Staff Report
Case Nos. GPA and C/Z 12-76

Page 2 of 3
• 19.5 Acres on the east side of Portola Avenue between Country Club Drive and
Frank Sinatra Drive, known as APN 620-400-028 (Exhibit B, attached).
• 38.6 Acres on the south side of Gerald Ford Drive adjacent to the Riverside
County Sheriff Station, known as APNs 694-300-001, 694-300-005 and 694-431-
005 (Exhibit C, attached).
• 3.8 Acres north of Upper Way West Drive on the hillside west of the cross on the
hill, known as APN 628-120-001 (Exhibit D).
Proiect Description
The request is to change the zoning, and the General Plan land use designation for one
(1) of the four properties, to be consistent with the intended use and land use
designations. Each property is being rezoned to different zoning designations for different
land uses. Exhibits have been prepared for each of the four properties to depict their
location and the proposed changes. The exhibits are as follows:
Exhibit A:
The vacant property totals 127.66 acres, and is currently designated Public
Facility/University (PF/U) in the General Plan, but is zoned Planned Residential, five (5)
units per acre. The property was acquired and set aside specifically to be used for
higher education, and to become part of the university that is currently known as
California State University San Bernardino Extension Campus. The University of
Riverside also has an extension campus at this location, but a majority of the remaining
land is intended for Cal State. The request is to rezone the entire 127.66 acres to Public
(P) to be consistent with the General Plan and intended use.
Exhibit B:
The vacant property totaling 19.53 acres is currently designated Resort/Hotel
Commercial (C-R/H) in the General Plan, but is zoned Single Family/Mobile Home
Residential. The property was designated Resort/Hotel Commercial as part of the
master plan approved for Desert Willow Golf Resort. The Resort Commercial
designation allows hotel, timeshare, recreational uses, or planned residential
communities with a Conditional Use Permit. The master plan called for the property to
be used as a sports complex as a conditional use. The request is to rezone the property
to Planned Residential, five (5) units per acre to be consistent with General Plan land
designation and the approved master plan for Desert Willow.
Exhibit C:
The vacant land on Gerald Ford Drive totals 38.63 acres, and was identified as area "B"
in the recently approved update of the Housing Element. Staff determined that this area

had been accidently omitted in the recent change of zones approved by the Planning
Commission and City Council. The request is to change the zone from Planned
Residential, five (5) units per acre to Planned Residential, 22 units per acre to be
consistent with the approved Housing Element and State Law.
Exhibit D:
The vacant 3.76 acre site is located on the hillside, north of Upper Way West Drive.
The property is currently designated Residential, Hillside Reserve (R-HR) in the
General Plan and zoned Hillside Planned Residential (HPR). The property was
purchased by the City's former Redevelopment Agency for open space conservation.
The current land use designation and zoning would allow the property to be developed,
which conflicts with the intended purpose when purchased by the former
Redevelopment Agency. The request is to approve a General Plan Amendment from R-
HR to Open Space (OP) and a Change of Zone from HPR to Open Space (OS).
Environmental Review
The proposed zone changes and one (1) amendment to the General Plan are being
done to clean up inconsistencies between intended land uses and zoning of these four
(4) properties. Therefore, the request is statutorily exempt for the purposes of CEQA
and no further review is necessary at this time.
All of the subject properties are vacant, and there are no specific projects proposed at
this time. Three of the subject properties will be developed over time, and any future
development will be reviewed by staff for full compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act.
