ENVIRCMER AL ASSESSMENT INITIAL STUDY
CAW N0S. GPA 89-2, C/Z 89-2 AND PP 89-1
5. ANIMAL LIFE
The project is within the Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard Habitat fee
area. The project will be subject to a $600/acre mitigation fee as
required by the FM Habitat Conservation Plan.
6. NOISE
The proposed project will create a compatible noise buffer adjacent to a
high noise corridor. It will ultimately lower noise levels experienced by
interior residential parcels. Buildings shall be setback a minimum of 35
feet from curb lines. Entire setback shall be landscaped.
7. LIGHT AND GLARE
Parking lot lighting shall be designated to permit no more than .1 foot
candle spillover on adjacent residential properties. Average lighting
levels throughout the lot shall not exceed 2.5 foot candles.
8. LAND USE
The project will remove 22 acres and potentially 115 residential units
from the area and permit up to 230,000 square feet of professional office
uses. It will also provide appropriate sites for major medical service
facilities currently unavailable in Palm Desert.
12. HOUSING
The proposal will ultimately result in the generation of 1000 employees
within the 5 to 10 year buildout period. Being a professional center, it
will contain a substantial proportion of middle and upper income workers
for which the current housing market produces sufficient housing supplies.
Housing for the lower and moderate income clerical staffs will be provided
by the existing rental housing stock and future low/moderate income
housing programs to be developed under city programs and in conjunction
with the Riverside County Housing Authority, as described in the city's
Housing Element.
13. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION
Proposal will generate 410 additional trips during the peak hour. (See
traffic analysis in staff report). Project is situated so that it is
conveniently accessible via Portola Avenue, which contains substantial
excess capacity. The proposed precise plan, PP 89-1, will only have
access to Portola.
Mitigation Measure:
All property owners within the project area shall execute reciprocal
access agreements permitting access to Portola Avenue for all future
developments. Access to-Country Club Drive shall be limited to no more
than two driveways and to right-turn in/out only. As mitigated the
proposed project traffic will not significantly impact traffic conditions
in the vicinity.
INITIAL STUDY
GPA 89-2, C/Z 89-2 AND PP 89-1
To further reduce traffic generation leasable office space construction in
the proposed rezoning shall be limited to 25% of each parcel's total land
area.
No more than two driveways shall be permitted on Country Club Drive with
right-turn access only. Access shall be designed to avoid conflicts with
existing access to Silver Sands Racquet Club.

10. The applicant offers the following reasons to justify the request for a Change of Zor
The site location on the NE corner of Country Club and Portola is a high
traffic and high noise level area that is incompatible for the existing
residential zoning. Additionally, the fact that there are several small
parcels from 2 to 5 acres in individual ownership make it difficult for
any one owner to develop a residential project that could meet the
standards of. the existing residential communities along some portions of
Country Club Drive . The approval of office Professional zoning on this
corner parcel would not set a zoning precedence inasmuch as corners are
(continued on next page )
Continued from Pas_ 1, Item 10 . . . .
often treated differently due to noise and traffic problems just
mentioned above. The area surrounding this site already has uses
more intense than residential and there is no better transition from
residential to higher uses than a well-done professional office complex.
Two major firms in the desert are interested in a long-term tenancy in
a high caliber professional office complex on this corner , if the
appropriate zoning can be obtained. Their requirements demand the
highest caliber in design and construction and it is our intent to
create a landmark building that would not only enhance the area but
create a standard for other similar developments .

be keyed to a map showing the location of these properties and shall include
the name and address as shown on the latest available assessment role of the
Riverside County Assessor's Office.
