COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT CITY COUNCIL PUBLIC HEARING MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Lauri Aylaian, City Manager Robert Hargreaves, City Attorney From: Eric Ceja, Principal Planner Date: February 13, 2020 Subject: Consideration for approval of a Resolution amending Condition No. 14 of Resolution 2018-16 requiring an in -lieu affordable housing fee on a development proposal at Palm Desert Country Club and an amendment to the Operation and Maintenance Agreement between the owners of Palm Desert Country Club (PD Holdings, LLC) and the City of Palm Desert.

Hi Rachelle, Since we have not received a response from Attorney Stendell on the questions we raised in our January 301h email to Eric Ceja below regarding the declaration attached to our tract 2137 remaining a golf course, we can only assume that it is still being researched. We trust that the city council would honor the deed declaration prior to any further consideration of approving the land transfer for park expansion and not repeat the error it made approving the executive course development before resolving the required zoning change. Please make this email along with our email of January 30`h to Eric Ceja and the attached letter from the PDCC attorney as part of the public record for the public hearing of February 13`h or any rescheduled date.

We are already hearing questions about whether or not a dog park expansion is under consideration, active vs passive activities, fencing, lighting, noise etc. For the many of of us living on tract 2137 which includes Declaration 2137 that the property be maintained as a golf course (attached is PDCC Attorney Patterson letter to City detailing this issue), we have two questions which may be more appropriate for Attorney Stendell to address: 1 How is the proposal to for a park expansion possible given the2.5 acres of land under consideration is part of the tract 2137 and the declaration? 2 Is the city altering or eliminating the declaration in this transaction. If the city is in fact altering or eliminating the declaration that the tract remain a golf course, are they proposing it for only the 2.5 acres for the park or for the entire tract? I am not sure if you are aware of this but just in case for notification purposes, there is a separate HOA from the PDCCA HOA, called Garden Apartments HOA, which has units along Michigan Drive including units that would back up to the park. We appreciate all the information and answers you are providing, Kevin and Christine From: eceja@cityofpalmdesert.org [mailto:eceja@cityofpalmdesert.org] Sent: Thursday, January 30, 2020 2:19 PM To: rklassen@cityofpalmdesert.org; faheykevin@comcast.net Cc: c.f.fahey@comcast.net; rstendell@cityofpalmdesert.org Subject: RE: Record Request: Expansion of Joe Mann Park & Public Hearing of 1/9 Hello Mr. Fahey, Thank you for expressing interest in the potential park expansion. I have attached a map showing the area for park expansion that is currently being considered. Prior to designing the park the City Council 1st needs to approve the proposal. We anticipate that could happen on February 13th. If approved, the City's Park Commission and City staff will solicit feedback from neighbors and park users about the expansion plans. The design of the park will include community feedback. Although not finalized, myself and other staff members are sensitive to the homes that back into the park area and we are supportive of more passive uses (walking paths and seating area) and new landscaping rather than active uses (basketball courts and playground equipment). If approved, we will reach out to all adjacent properties for your input. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hargreaves, City Attorney City of Palm Desert c/o Best Best & Krieger 74760 Highway 111, Suite 200 Indian Wells, CA 92210 Re: Palm Desert Country Club Dear Mr. Hargreaves: REPLY To: Palm Springs, California This letter is provided to the City of Palm Desert on behalf of our client PD Holdings, LP which owns a nine -hole golf course and an eighteen -hole golf course commonly known as the Palm Desert Country Club. PD Holdings, LP has applied for certain entitlements including Tract Maps 37240, 37241 and 37242 ("Entitlements") allowing a portion of the nine hole executive golf course to be developed as single family residential housing. You have asked for our opinion about whether there are any covenants or restrictions that would prohibit the construction of the single-family residential housing project ("Project") contemplated by the Entitlements. It is our unequivocal opinion that there are no covenants or restrictions that restrict or prohibit the entitlement and construction of the Project. Therefore, the City Council must consider the recommendation of the Planning Commission to approve the Entitlements without any reference to this potential issue. In fact the issue has been raised by members of the public who are opposed to the development strictly for political reasons. In short, the covenants are a red herring that must be disregarded. PRIVATE CC&Rs There are two sets of CC&Rs that potentially could affect the Project. However, neither one of these CC&Rs contains a restriction applicable to the area of the Project. The overall project known as Palm Desert Country Club is covered by Tract Map 33195. Tract 33195 is a remapping of two previous smaller tracts, Tract 2137 and Tract 2283. The Project is located on Lots 12, 26 and 29 of Tract 33195 (APNs 637-19-27, 637-19- SLOVAK BARON EMPEY MURPHY & PINKNEY LLP 1800 E.

Hargreaves, Esq. April 19, 2018 Page 2 21 and 637-19-24). On April 12, 1961, a Declaration of Restrictions containing a golf course requirement was recorded as Instrument Number 31032, affecting certain Lots within Tract 2137, as amended on November 19, 2004 by Instrument Number 2004-0929679 (collectively the "2137 Declaration"). Paragraph 1 of Declaration 2137 states that it covers only lots within Tract 2137. Section 1 says that a golf course must be maintained on the property. Attached to this letter is a diagram showing the coverage of the 2137 Declaration. The 2137 Declaration covers the area commonly known as the front 9 holes of the Championship Golf Course. ("Front 9 Holes"). However. more notablv. the 2137 Declaration does not cover anv part of the Proiect. On March 12, 1963, a Declaration of Restrictions was recorded as Instrument Number 24645 affecting certain lots within Tract 2283 as amended on November 19, 2004 as Instrument Number 2004-0929681 (the "2283 Declaration"). The 2283 Declaration covers the area commonly known as the "Back 9 Holes" and requires that a golf course be maintained on the subject property. While the 2283 Declaration reauires maintenance of golf course it has expired and is no longer of anv force or effect.(See Section 2) In any event the 2283 Declaration covers only a small part of the Project as shown on the attached diagram. The 2137 Declaration does not cover the Project and the 2283 Declaration has expired. No private covenants affect, restrict or prohibit the Project. CITY OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT The only other covenant that could affect the Project is the Operation and Maintenance Agreement between the City and Dahoon Investment Company, Inc. dated August 31, 2005 and recorded as Document Number 2005-0780948. This document states that so long as a golf course is maintained it will be maintained according to the standards set forth in the agreement. However, the City Covenant is clear that the owner is not mandated to operate a golf course. The standards provide that so long as a golf course is operated on the property it must be maintained in a manner consistent with the operations of an average golf course facility allowing members of the public and private members to play. As mentioned above, there were initially two golf courses on the overall project known as Palm Desert Country Club —the Executive Course and the Championship Course. PD Holdings, however, shut down the Executive Course —the area at issue —several years ago. The Championship Course remains in operation and PD Holdings intends to continue to operate and maintain that course. The development project applies only to the former Executive Course. Therefore, PD Holdings will continue to maintain the eighteen -hole course in full compliance with the City Covenant. The language in the City Covenant states that "for so long as Owner operates a golf course on the Property, Owner agrees to operate and maintain the Property according to the standards set forth in this Agreement, as required under the Development Agreement". Nowhere does the City Covenant state that the owner must operate a golf course or golf courses on the entirety of the project. The City Covenant does not state that the owner cannot take one of the golf courses out of play because that Robert W. Hargreaves, Esq. April 19, 2018 Page 3 was never the intention of the agreement. The City Covenant was entered into at a time when a concern existed because the turf and landscaping was dying and unsightly. The purpose of the City Covenant was to assure that the grass did not dry up and create an eyesore. The purpose of the City Covenant was definitely not to mandate that the property not be developed for another use such as single family residential. Had that been the intent, the City could have stated that as it its intent. Our client strongly opposes any interpretation of the City Covenant as prohibiting development of single family residential housing as this is not supported in any way by the City Covenant. In conclusion, the covenants affecting the property do not in any way restrict or prohibit our client's development. In fact the Palm Desert Country Club Association has provided its prior written support to the project as it is not inconsistent with the CC&Rs. We request that you present this letter to the City Council members so that they can make an adequately informed decision. In making their decision, the issue of the City Covenant or a private covenant prohibiting or restricting the Entitlements would not be within the reasonable discretion of the City Council. We thank you for giving us the opportunity to present this opinion and information for your review. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if you need any further information or documents referred to in this letter. Sincerely, SBEMP LLP Robert L.

CITY OF PALM DESERT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Db" wn-tmENT DATE: January 9, 2020 PREPARED BY: Eric Ceja, Principal Planner REQUEST: Consideration for approval of a Resolution amending Condition No. 14 of Resolution 2018-16 requiring an in -lieu affordable housing fee on a development proposal at Palm Desert Country Club and an amendment to the Operation and Maintenance Agreement between the owners of Palm Desert Country Club (PD Holdings, LLC) and the City of Palm Desert. Recommendation 1. Waive further reading and adopt Resolution 2020- 01 , amending Condition No. 14 of Resolution 2018-16 requiring payment of an in -lieu affordable housing fee for the conversion of the former Executive Golf Course. By Minute Motion: 2. Approve an amendment to the Operation and Maintenance Agreement ("OMA") between the City of Palm Desert and PD Holdings, LLC, for the operations and maintenance of the remaining 18-hole golf course at Palm Desert Country Club. Strateqic Plan The Land Use, Housing & Open Space chapter of the Strategic Plan contains the following priority: • Priority No. 5: "Utilize progressive land use policies and standards to support ongoing and future needs." Under this Priority, an "Action Step" is listed for the repurposing of the golf courses. The specific step includes all parties, residents, the developer, and the City working together for the repurposing of golf course facilities. In May 2018, the City Council approved plans for the repurposing of the Palm Desert Country Club (PDCC) Executive Course. As recommended by staff, this action will aid in accomplishing the above referenced priority. January 9, 2020 — Staff Report PDCC Executive Course Condition and Agreement Amendments Page 2 of 5 Planninq Commission The proposed amendment to the approved project conditions does not require Planning Commission review. Chapter 25.60.110 "Modifications" of the Zoning Ordinance allows for project modifications, including alteration of conditions, to be considered by the same approving authority as the original permit. Since the City Council adopted Resolution 18-16 only the City Council can amend the Resolution. Executive Summary In May 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2018-16 and Ordinance No. 1337 for the repurposing of the former PDCC Executive Course with 69 single -story condominiums. As part of that approval, the City Council directed staff to work with the property owner to amend the existing OMA to address the development proposal and to incorporate desertscape maintenance standards into the agreement. Additionally, the applicant has requested that the City amend Condition No. 14 of Resolution 2018-16, accepting a combination of Developer Impact Fees and land as open space to expand Joe Mann Park. Amended Condition No. 14 of Resolution 2018-16 On May 10, 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution 2018-16, approving the development of 69 condominiums on approximately 30 acres previously operated as a 9-hole executive golf course. As part of that Resolution, the City Council adopted a Condition of Approval (COA No. 14) requiring that: "The developer agrees to pay an in -lieu affordable housing fee not to exceed $12.50 per gross square foot of livable space per unit for the entire project. The fee shall be paid at building permit issuance on a per -unit basis." Staff has traditionally supported an "in -lieu" affordable housing fee or dedication of affordable units when developers propose a "Change of Zone" ("CZ") application. Since the time of project approval, the developer and City have been negotiating the "not to exceed" portion of the fee. The developer has stated that the fee of $12.50 a square foot makes the project financially infeasible. Given the condition of the former course, staff has been open to exploring solutions that satisfy COA No. 14 in order to improve that the conditions at the former course. In working with the Community Development Department staff, the applicant is proposing the following: Prior to issuance of any grading permits, the applicant shall furnish proof that the "Declaration of Protective Restrictions (copy attached)" between the Palm Desert Country Club Homeowners' Association (HOA) and the applicant is recorded with Riverside County. If this condition is satisfied, then the following three conditions would become effective. \\srv-fil2k3\groups\Planning\Eric Ceja\Case Files\Palm Desert Country Club\CM&M_Condition Report\CC Staff Report (1.9.20).doc January 9, 2020 — Staff Report PDCC Executive Course Condition and Agreement Amendments Page 3 of 5 2. A $5,797.10 per unit fee will be paid into the City's Park Fund 430 at the time of building permit issuance. Hence, a total payment of $400,000 will have been collected at project build -out for the specific use of constructing public facilities such as; parks, housing projects, or other public facilities. 3. Dedication of approximately 2.5 acres to the City to expand Joe Mann Park. The land is located behind Hole No. 15 and is contiguous to the park. The dedication of land to the City is conditioned to be complete prior to issuance of the 12th building permit. 4. A sales performance contribution to the City's Park Fund 430 for all homes with sales prices between $450,000 and $500,000. For unit sales in excess of $500,000 the City would not collect any additional funds from the developer. The sales performance contributions is a 50/50 split of sales price between $450,000 and $500,000. Example: for a unit sales price of $480,000 the City will collect an additional $15,000. The total sales performance contribution would not exceed an additional $400,000. The total potential contribution to the City's Park Fund 430 by the developer would not exceed $800,000. Staff is supportive of the above -noted proposal as a means to satisfy COA No. 14 of the approved project. The "not to exceed" clause of the condition was intended to allow for flexibility for the project exaction. The new proposal provides two superior options to the City: 1. A guaranteed financial contribution into the City's Park Fund 430: • Minimum not less than $400,000. • Maximum no more than $800,000. 2. Dedication of 2.5 acres of land adjoining Joe Mann Park for the park expansion. The proposed amended condition is also consistent with the City's practice of requiring exactions on Change of Zone applications. Because the Change of Zone is a discretionary approval, and it significantly increases value of the land, it is appropriate that the City ensure that there be a benefit to the public as well as to the developer. The proposal also will allow the City to accept a land dedication for park expansion in a portion of the City that has limited park space. \\srv•fil2k3\groups\Planning\Eric Ceja\Case Files\Palm Desert Country Club\CC\O&M_Condition Report\CC Staff Report (1.9.20).doc January 9, 2020 — Staff Report PDCC Executive Course Condition and Agreement Amendments Page 4 of 5 Operation and Maintenance Agreement In 2005, as part of an approval to allow for new housing development within PDCC, the City Council entered into an OMA with PD Holdings, LLC. The OMA includes language that the property be maintained as a golf course, so long as it is operating as a golf course. In 2013, the 9-hole PDCC Executive Course ceased operations, and in May 2018, the City Council approved a project for the development of the former 9-hole golf course. As part of that approval, the City Council conditioned that the OMA be amended to remove the 9-hole golf course from the agreement. Additionally, the City Council directed staff to develop maintenance standards for the remaining desertscape portions within the operating golf course properties. The City Attorney's office, Community Development staff, and the applicant have agreed to the amended agreement that includes the following: Monthly removal of plant liter to maintain a clean appearance. Removal and replacement of dead landscape material within 3 months with exceptions for seasonal considerations Pest control to reduce plant susceptibility to pest problems. Staff believes that the agreement satisfies the condition of approval imposed by the City Council and provides the City, property owners, and PDCC homeowners an understanding of the maintenance expectations for the remaining golf course. Public Input Over the preceding months, the applicant met with the president of the PDCC HOA to come to an agreement on the OMA and an amended settlement agreement. The HOA President is supportive of the amended conditions and OMA subject to a requirement that the applicant furnishes proof of having recorded the amended agreements with Riverside County. Staff is recommending a condition that supports the HOA's efforts. Findinqs of Approval Findings can be made in support of the project and in accordance with the City's Municipal Code. Findings in support of this project are contained in the City Council Resolution attached to this staff report. \\srv-til2k3\groups\Planning\Eric Ceja\Case Files\Palm Desert Country Club\CC\0&M_Condition Report\CC Staff Report (1.9.20) doc January 9, 2020 — Staff Report PDCC Executive Course Condition and Agreement Amendments Page 5 of 5 Fiscal Analvsis There is no financial impact or public funding associated with this project.

A "Date Certain" for the completion of repurposing the former Executive Course is noticeably lacking. The new OMA between P.D. Holding, LLC and the City of Palm Desert only indirectly affects the construction of 69 condo units; however the City' s "Desert Landscape design principals" section 8.70.190 of the Palm Desert Municipal Code is applicable. The request by P.D. Holding, LLC to revise their article 14 Resolution 2018-16 due to "In -feasibility of the project" appears to be ineffective "due diligence" and inaccurate cost estimation: Not a reasonable reason for change; however it provides the City an excellent opportunity to establish a "Date Certain" for completion of this project and provides owners of property abutting the former executive course "A light at the end of the tunnel" for relief of mental, emotional and physical stress as well as loss of property value for the past seven (7) years, (2013-2020). The staff recommendation amending Article 14 to replace the $12.50 per sq. foot "in -lieu of affordable housing fee" with a $5,797.10 per unit "developer impact fee" awards P.D. Holdings appropriately $1 million in cost reduction for the project ($17,500.00 per unit vs. $5,797.10 per unit. The 2.5 acres of vacant land for the expansion of Joe Mann Park has an approximate accessed value of $230.00 (average accessed value of 3 adjacent parcels $91.73 per acre) and is located behind hole number 4 not hole number 15 as shown in the staff report. The additional $400,000.00 ($450,000.00 to $500,000.00) sales incentive bonus for condos is unrealistic in an area where single family, 3bdrms, 2 baths homes many with swimming pools regularly sell for less than $400,000.00 (2 recent sales $355,000.00 and $360,000.00). Staff recommendation is therefore NOT AN EQUITABLE "QUID PRO QUO" arrangement for the City of Palm Desert taxpayers. A request for a change to an agreed condition normally requires the requesting party to provide a equitable alternative to the request. An appropriate alternative in this instance would be a "COMPLETION BOND" in the amount of $20 million dollars with P.D.

Hargreaves, City Attorney City of Palm Desert c/o Best Best & Krieger 74760 Highway 111, Suite 200 Indian Wells Ca 92210 Re: Palm Desert Country Club- Case No 16-280. Council's Consideration of rezoning of three Darcels from oven space to mixed use residential for construction of 69 condominium units on avvroximately 30 acres located on the former executive gold course at Palm Desert Country Club To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the Palm Desert City Council and City Attorney Hargreaves: My office represents the Open Space Action Committee, which is comprised of a group of concerned citizens who reside at the Palm Desert Country Club and are directly affected by the proposed project. I have reviewed the April 19, 2018 letter from counsel for PD Holdings, LP, the owner of the Palm Desert Country Club as it relates to the Operation and Maintenance Agreement ("OMA") between the City of Palm Desert and PD Holding's predecessor Dahoon Investment Company, Inc. as recorded on September 21, 2005 in the Official Records of Riverside County as Document Number 2005-0780948. I have likewise reviewed the Memorandum from Palm Desert City Attorney Hargreaves dated April 30, 2018 re "Palm Desert Country Club Documents" as it relates to Council's "direction" that he review the Development Agreement, Operation and Maintenance Agreement, CC&R's and the April 19 2018 letter from PDCC's legal counsel. Page 1 of 6 WARD LAW GROUP A PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION I have likewise conducted a review and analysis of the Operation and Maintenance Agreement. I agree with your City Attorney's conclusion that 1) the OMA does not have a termination date; 2) the OMA remains enforceable, and 3) that it does not appear that the OMA was discharged in bankruptcy. I disagree with Mr. Hargreave's assertion that the City can "justifiably" take the position that if any portion of the Property is no longer operated as a golf course, that such portion is not required to be maintained to the Agreement's standards. I likewise disagree with many of the assertions made by Applicant's attorney Robert Patterson in his April 19, 2018 letter. I have reviewed a memorandum from Principal Planner Eric Ceja to Council, in which he confirms the uncertainty created by the City Attorney's April 30, 2018 memorandum, and recommends that "City Council direct staff to work with the Applicant to amend the OMA to clarify that it applies only to the Championship course and only so long as it is operated as a golf course." For the following reasons, my client asserts that the City cannot justifiably take a position that is contrary to the express and unambiguous language of the OMA which clearly reveals the intent that the maintenance obligations apply to the entire "Property" as defined in the OMA. 1. The Maintenance Agreement ADDlies to the Entire "Proaerty". and is Not Limited to Areas Used for Golf Provided that Golf is* Conducted on the Property. Recital Section "A" defines the "Property" as the real property located at 77-200 California Road in the City of Palm Desert known as the Palm Desert Golf Course, legally described in Exhibit A-1 and depicted in Exhibit A-2 attached to the agreement and incorporated into the agreement by reference. Recital Section "A" specifically states that the "Property" is "improved with certain improvements, including. but not limited to, an eighteen (18) hole golf course and a nine (9) hole executive course (collectively "Golf Course'), an approximately ten thousand (10,000) square foot clubhouse ("Clubhouse"), a storage area and maintenance yard ("Maintenance Yard") and Parking Lot ("Parking Lot"). Recital C states: "For so long as Owner operates a golf course on the Property, Owner agrees to operate and maintain the Property according to the standards set forth in this Agreement, as required under the Development Agreement." Section 3.1 of the OMA states that "Owner shall maintain the "Pronerty and related improvements. including without limitation the Clubhouse, the Parking Lot, the Maintenance Facility and associated landscaping in accordance with this Agreement, including without Page 2 of 6 WARD LAW GROUP A PRoPFssioNAL CORPORATION limitation, the Maintenance Standards for the Palm Desert Country Club attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B incorporated by this reference (the "Maintenance Standards")". Section 3.8 of the OMA states that the covenants contained therein run with the land, bind Owner's successors and assigns (which includes the Applicant), and "shall remain in effect for so long as the Property is used as a golf course facilitv". Applicant's counsel not surprisingly asserts that it is his "unequivocal opinion" that there are no covenants or restrictions that restrict or prohibit the entitlement and construction of the Project, and that City Council must consider the recommendation of Planning Commission to approve without any reference to this potential issue. First, this is not a "potential" issue, it is a ripe and present issue. Second, the position of Applicant's counsel appears to be unsupportable given the clear language of Recital C and Sections 3.1/3.8 of the OMA. The issue is not whether the owner must operate a golf course or golf courses on the entirety of the project as Applicant's counsel asserts. The issue is if the owner operates any golf facility on the Property then it must comply with the maintenance obligations for the entire Property. As Council is aware, it is the former 9- hole golf course area that the Applicant seeks a zone change and approval to develop. This area is clearly within the defined "Property" and clearly subject to all maintenance obligations as set forth in the OMA. Applicant's counsel does not dispute the application of the OMA, and in fact admits in his April 19, 2018 letter that PD Holdings will continue to maintain the eighteen -hole course in full compliance with the City Covenant. (letter page 2). It is unclear to me how the Applicant believes that it can pick and choose those provisions of the OMA that it wants to comply with, while asking City Council to simply disregard and ignore those provisions that it does not want to comply with, and in this case, those provisions that interfere with its approval for the zone change and development. 2. The OMA Was Clearlv Intended to Avviv to Maintenance of the Entire Prouerty Including anv Golf Course, and that Intent Should Not Be Disregarded. Again, Applicant's counsel takes the position in his letter that the intent of the OMA was not to prevent development for another use, such as single family residential. First, for clarification, Applicant is seeking approval for change of zone to multi -family residential. Second, the language of the OMA speaks directly to the intent of the parties by mandating City enforcement if the owner allows any materially adverse condition on any area of the Property, including any significant deterioration of the golf course. Page 3 of 6 WARD LAW GROUP A PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION Section 3.2 of the OMA states: "If at any time there is an occurrence where, in the commercially reasonable opinion of the City, a material adverse condition on any area of the Proaerty exists in contravention of the Management Plan and/or this Agreement (a "Maintenance Deficiency") the City shall notify the Owner in writing of such Maintenance Deficiency." Section 4.3 of the OMA is entitled "Relief to Preclude Immediate Significant Deterioration of the Golf Course", and states in relevant part: "If the City identifies a Maintenance Deficiency which the City believes in its commercially reasonable opinion will result in the immediate significant deterioration of the Golf Course if not cured within a commercially reasonable time ("Urgent Maintenance Deficiency"), the City shall provide immediate written notice to Owner." The OMA applies to the Property and further applies so long as any golf operations are being conducted on the Property. The analysis is not whether the OMA restricts the owner/applicant from ceasing to use a portion of the Property as a 9-hole course. However, any such decision by the owner does not excuse or diminish the maintenance obligations as to the "Property" and to maintain said Property in accordance with the OMA maintenance standards, for as long as any portion of the Property is used as a golf course. With all due respect to the City Attorney, his statement that any other interpretation could be given to this language, is not a reasonable or justifiable interpretation, especially when section 3.8 is read in connection with sections 3.2 and 4.3. 3. The OMA Was A Stated Condition of Aoaroval of the Development Agreement. Which Was Recorded on the Same Date as the OMA. The OMA arose as a specific condition of approval of the Palm Desert Country Club Development Agreement between the City of Palm Desert, PDCC Development LLC and Dahoon Investment Company, Inc which was recorded on the same date as the OMA. The parties to the Development Agreement received substantial benefit under the Development Agreement. To now suggest, that any provisions of the OMA (a stated condition of approval) can retroactively be cancelled, waived or rescinded, is contrary to the terms, conditions and spirit of the Development Agreement, which provided in part as follows; Page 4 of 6 WARD LAW GROUP A PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION "Whereas, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, have undergone extensive review by the City and the City Council and have been found to be fair just and reasonable" 4. The City Has Failed for Manv Years to Reauire the Owner/Aonlicant to Comniv with the Maintenance Obligations under the OMA. and Must Not Reward Such Breach with an Amendment to the OMA. The photographs of the burned out, blighted, dilapidated area which was once occupied by the 9-hole course (and which are part of the record in this matter) clearly show that there has been little if any effort by the City of Palm Desert to enforce the maintenance obligations as to the owner/applicant under the OMA. It appears that the owner/applicant has ignored its obligations under the OMA, and made all those homeowners who have homes on and around the former 9-hole course, to endure years of blighted conditions. These maintenance obligations include the obligations under Section 2.3 that the Owner budget and expend a minimum of 1.1 million dollars annually for maintenance of the Golf Course and its facilities, and under section 2.3.2 to submit annual reports detailing money spent on the maintenance of the Golf Course. Now this same owner/applicant wants the City to reward its actions with a zone change, and approval for development of the project on the Property. The suggestion that these matters can be resolved with a simple amendment to the OMA, if so directed, would constitute the City's granting of a waiver of the owner/applicant's obligations and smacks of self -interested dealing, given the unperformed obligations of the City under the OMA. Applicant and its counsel may not like the terms of the OMA, however the language of the Agreement is not ambiguous. The OMA and the obligations therein are a covenant running with the Property. Respectfully, the comments from Mr. Ceja that the previous owners went bankrupt, that there are significant changes in the golf industry and that the sustained viability of the golf course has not been demonstrated, may all be true, but likewise irrelevant to the analysis. As Mr. Ceja states in his memo to Council, "requiring private businesses to operate at a loss is outside the scope of the City's authority". Likewise, disregarding, waiving or amending out obligations contained in the recorded OMA that run with the Property and bind this Applicant, in order to suit the owner/applicant and/or City, is likewise beyond the scope of the City's authority.

Matthew T. Ward ` Page 6 of 6 Klassen, Rachelle From: Lisa Theodoratus <lisatheo@msn.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2020 3:08 PM To: Klassen, Rachelle Subject: Request postponement for PDCC maintenance agreement - January 9 council agenda Importance: High Hi Rachelle I am asking for a postponement of the Palm Desert Country Club maintenance agreement item that is scheduled for the January 91h city council meeting. The notices were postmarked December 26 and my notice did not even arrive until January 3 with the holiday mail which is a very short window for affected property owners, I live in San Francisco and am personally unable to attend due to the short notice. I have many issues with the way documents were written for this item and nothing has been done to correct the wording of the change to maintenance agreement with the current golf course property owner. If this is allowed to pass without protective clauses for the community requiring maintenance of the entire property the 18 hole course can and will be shut down with maintenance only required on the "desert scape" areas and not the greens as soon as building permits are issued for the condo infill. Then there will then be yet another developer applying for infill on the 18 hole property! The below from the proposed document states that any area no longer "used" as golf course will not require maintenance and therefore this document has no protective covenant at all and in fact encourages the property owner to cease operations. " 2.1 Operation and Use of Properth• by Owner: Owner intends to operate, or C ; cause to he operated, upon the Property, a semi -private golf course facilit}• in N Zs accordance with this Agreement in a prudent businesslike manner consistent with the (-- operations o%an average- se►ni-private golf course fac•ifily allowing use by both numbers �' :r Z r rT' of the public and private members, in the Palm Desert area, and consistent and in O m c-- compliance with all applicable provisions o' .federal, state and local laws and M regulations. In addition to the forgoing, it is agreed that acre portion c f such golf c•ource- landscaped with drought tolerant landscaping shall be maintained at all tinies in accordance with the Cit)• standards attached hereto as Exhibit "D":, Notwithstanding the forgoing, should Owner cease operating a golf course on any portion o%the Property, N the forgoing covenant regarding maintenance Ufa golf course twill no longer apply to such portion o/ the Property no longer used as a golf course. " We have several other issues going on here as well, one of which is the additional infill submitted to planning involving the same property with the first lot slated on Elkhorn Trail as a model home for the condo infill. That project should be part of the conversation at the city council meeting. No notice to HOA property owners has been made and it is my understanding that the developers are asking for all of the lots that were removed in the 2003 infill as buildable lots. The planning department seems to be only conversing on this with the PDCCA board chair who has no authority to agree to this infill on his own as I believe that authorizing the overlay would need to go to the full HOA membership for vote and could not be approved by the HOA chair as the protective land convents from the 60's are legally valid and cover those lots. In any case the city council Then we have the issue of the modified protective covenant agreement which would prohibit the infill noted in the above paragraph and is part of the maintenance agreement. There are quite honestly so many issues with this agenda item that need to be looked at and modified before going to the city council for approval I could go on for pages more but in the interest of time and hopefully continuance of the item I am sending this to you now.

See Their advertisement attached. PLANS FILED WITH THE CITY FOR TRACT 37246. 13.56 ACRES. 2-19-2620 , 1 spoke with Investigator Angie Cosme with The Real Estate Commissioner's office(LOS ANGELES) for the State of California. She stated the information listed ❑n the Preliminary Public Report was as pink issued had not received a final report. Little information was available but this gave the opportunity to advertise and take names and checks for reservations. There was no mention that the city had approved this project for 69 condos. Interesting that on the 1-9-2020 Council Meeting , PD Holdings had not filed for a Preliminary Public Report. Investigator Come also stated the developer did not Need a Real Estate License but if any employee or Person took a reservation and gave a deposit that person Need to have a California Real Estate License.e WHAT IS THE TRUTH? WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO START! MINUTES �,a F1� 11I REGULAR PALM DESERT CITY COUNCIL MEETING JANUARY 9, 2020 Moe _-) , k, —t, objective of the in -lieu fee of $12.50 per square foot. They were told that other developers have paid significantly less than that amount, but they are attempting to come close to that target. He believed they will get started on the project at the end of this golf season. In terms of finishing the project, he felt the housing market will dictate for when it will be completed. If it's a buoyant market, they will continue to proceed and develop as quickly as possible, and if not, they don't want to get into an impecunious situation. They will start with the first phase by pre -marketing, which will provide an indication on the depth of interest, which will dictate the pace on which they will move forward. Further responding, he said the logical glace to start construction is at the foot of New Mexico, the old holes 2 and 9 of the Executive Course, stating it would be the most efficient spot to start. Lastly, once the project develops, there will be a new HOA to deal with some of the areas referred to by Councilmember Harnik. MR. J E B MARSH, Kentucky Avenue, stated his home is located on the south end of the course. He noted he's a certified general property appraiser, including development land, holds the MAI designation, and is a member of the Urban Land Institute. After reading staff's report he's come up with a couple of questions. First there is the $12.50 in -lieu fee, and based on his calculations, it comes out to $1.2 million, which is well under 5% of their overall finish sale price, as long as they sell the units at $400,000, which he believed they will be lucky to see. The point is that these are very thin margins, and it should be a big red flag. These guys are really good at their proforma if they are able to drill it down to say the in -lieu fee of $12.50 is killing this deal. Also, he questioned if it was the City's job to ensure a project is financially feasible, because he felt Council has bent backwards for this Applicant just to give them the entitlements, and they have their hands out again, which won't be the last time. Also, the potential of $400,000 to $800,000 thatwill go toward Fund 430 - Park Fund, the City will probably only see $400,000. The $1.23 million that would be owed to the City at $12.50 a foot for the affordable housing project, it means the City is valuing the 2.3 acres at $837,000. He said this land has no other highest and best use other than an extension of Joe Mann Park or for use by the golf course. He asked if the City has done it's own appraisal, because he's been involved in a couple of municipal land transaction, and this type of transaction would have triggered two appraisals under heavy scrutiny. Thirdly. this is the first time he has seen affordable housing being used to help the financial feasibility of a development. He asked if the Affordable Housing Department has been consulted and what are their financial needs, because this represent a good chunk of change for them to help secure affordable housing. Lastly, he said Joe Mann Park is great and the Council should consider extending it, but the City should use park and open space money.

Read the Public Report carefully for more information about the type of development. The development includes common areas and facilities which will be owned and/or operated by an owners'association. Purchase ofa lot or unit automatically entitles and obligates youas a member ofthe association and, in most cases, includes a beneficial interest in the areas and facilities. Since membership in theassociation ismandatory. you should be aware of the following information before you purchase: Governing Instruments Your ownership in this development and your rights and remedies as amemberofits association will be controlled by governing instruments which generally include a Declaration of Restrictions (also known as CC&R's), Articles of Incorporation (or association) and bylaws. The provisions of these documents are intended to be, and in most tosses are, enforceable in a court of law. Study these documents carefully before entering into a contract to purchase a subdivision interest. Assessments In order to provide funds for operation and maintenance of the common facilities, the association will levy assessments against your lot or unit. if you are delinquent in the payment ofassessments, the association may enforce paymentthrough court proceedings or your lot or unit may be liened and sold through the exercise of a power of sale. The anticipated income and expenses of the association, including the amount that you may expect to pay through assessments, are outlined in the proposed budget. Ask to see a copy of the budget if the subdivider has not already made it available for your examination. Common Facilities A homeownerassociation provides avehicle forthe ownership and use of recreational and other common facilities which were designed to attractyou to buy in this development. The association also provides a means to accompl ish architectural control and to provide abase for homeowner interaction on a variety of issues. The purchaser of an interest in a common - interest development should contemplate active participation in the affairs of the association. He or she should be willing toserve on the hoard ofdirectorsoron committees created by Page 3 of 3 the board. In short. "they" in acommon interest development is "you." Unless you serve as a member of the governing board or on a committee appointed by the board, your control of the operation of the common areas and facilities is lim ited toyour vote as a member ofthe association. There areactions that can be taken by the governing body without a vote of the members of the association which can have a significant impact upon the quality of life for association members. Subdivider Control Until there is a sufficient number of purchasers of lots or units in a common interest development to elect a majority of the governing body. it is likely that the subdivider will effectively control the affairs ofthe association. It is frequently necessary and equitable that the subdivider do so during the early stages of development. It is vitally important to the owners of individual subdivision interests that the transition from subdivider to resident -owner control be accomplished in an orderly manner and in a spirit of cooperation. Cooperative Living When contemplating the purchase ofa dwel I ing in acommon interest development, you should consider factors beyond the attractiveness of the dwelling units themselves. Study the governing instruments and give careful thought to whether you will be able to exist happily in an atmosphere ofcooperative living where the interests ofthe group must be taken into account as well as the interests of the individual. Remember that managing a common interest development is very much like governing a small community ._. the management can serve you well, but you will have to work for its success.

The subdivider may wish to use another name for the subdivision for advertising purposes. The tract name or tract number and the advertising name will be included in the subdivision public report. However, in advertising the designated advertising name, as stated on the Public Report or Permit, must be used. §2799.1(3) A subdivision shall not be advertised by a name ortrade style which implies, contrary to fact, that the subdivider or his agent is a bona fide research organization, public agency, nonprofit organization or similar entity." a This regulation covers any kind of organization which is owned, controlled, or in any way associated with the subdivider.

Advertising will not be approved if it implies, contrary to fact, that real estate is owned and/or offered by any public agency. §2799.1(4) No improvement, facility or utility service may be advertised unless it has been completed or installed and is available for use, or unless completion and availability for use are assured through bonding or other arrangements approved by the Commissioner. If not completed, the estimated date of completion shall be set forth in the advertising. s This includes any off -site proposed improvement which includes recreational or other facilities in addition to the utility services such as sewers, water, gas, electricity, telephone and TV cables.

"Paved roads" means either public or private paved roads. A "potable water system" means a public or community system serving lots in a subdivision with a water supply approved by the appropriate health authority. A "sewage system" means a public or community system serving lots in a subdivision approved by the appropriate health authority. A "source of electricity at the building site" means that a home builder, having obtained a building permit and having made a proper application for electric service, is entitled to receive servicewithoutadd itionat cost other than the normal hook-up charges, if any.

The City Council also considered a request by the developer to amend Condition of Approval No. 14 to modify the in -lieu affordable housing fee. The City Council voted unanimously to continue the developer's request to the City Council meeting of February 13, 2020, and again voted to continue the public hearing to the meeting of February 27, 2020. The City Council also directed staff to work with the developer on the following: 1. How can the City protect property owners and ensure the project is complete. The City's ability to ensure project completion is limited. As experienced in the last recession, development projects can stall and can take years for a full project build - out. Prior to construction, the City does accept bonds to ensure that public improvements are complete; however, private improvements are more challenging, and staff does not recommend accepting a bond that would require the City to finish out the development. Additionally, market forces will dictate the absorption rate of the condominiums, and the City should not grant or imply that it will take responsibility for the timing or build -out of the development. Staff suggests using existing policies and enforcement procedures to ensure that construction impacts are at a minimum and disturbed areas are properly maintained. This includes enforcement of construction hours, enforcement of the project's conditions of approval, timely inspections, and enforcement of dust control protocols during construction. Staff is also recommending a condition on the project that all landscape be installed and planted prior to the 1st Certificate of Occupancy being issued for any unit. This condition requires the developer to install all landscape within the planning area (decomposed granite, shrubs, trees) before they can occupy or sell the first unit. This February 27, 2020 — Memorandum Palm Desert Country Club Change of Zone Page 2 of 2 condition protects surrounding property owners by ensuring that the full landscape is installed in the planning area; so that even if the project stalls, the landscape is in place to remediate ongoing nuisance issues. 2. Provide interim maintenance standards for the planning areas that are not under construction. Staff has worked with the developer to identify suitable maintenance standards for the portions of the project that are not under construction. For planning areas that are not under construction, the developer is proposing the following: • Water areas as needed. • Mow and maintain (weed removal) areas as needed. • Respond to any or all maintenance complaints within 24 hours. • Work with City staff to develop a plan acceptable to the City and remedy all complaints within 48 hours. Staff is cautious about establishing strict maintenance requirements for the planning areas as the areas have reverted to a natural -like condition. Due to a series of contributing factors, including environmental and financial limitations, there should also be no expectation or requirement that the planning areas be brought up to golf - course like conditions or that replacement of turf should occur. Instead, Staff recommends accepting the developer's proposal and allow City Code Compliance to work with the developer when issues arise. 3. Ensure that the applicant's affordable housing fees go into a City housing fund. Staff has provided an updated resolution that will place the developer's affordable housing fees into the City's 870 Housing Fund. 4. Work with the developer to establish a project start date. The developer has taken several steps toward starting the project. The applicant has already received approval for grading plans and building plans for project amenities, and the condominiums are in review. The developer has indicated that grading and site work will occur one project area at a time. Once the first project area is built out, and assuming favorable market conditions, another project area will be developed. Assuming City Council approval of the amended conditions and OMA, the developer has stated that they will like to begin site work by November of 2020. ERIC CEJA, RII CIPAL PLANNER Attachments: 1.

Please include my letter to the to City Council Meeting February 27, 2020 Agenda item 17-A 5urmimnt info - CZ -PP -CUP 16-280 - 02-27-2020 Thank you, Tack Fomev February 25, 2020 To: Palm Desert City Council Gina Nestande, Mayor Kathleen Kelly, Mayor Pro-Tempore Jan C. Harnik, Councilmember Sabby Jonathan, Councilman Sus an Marie Weber, Councilmember Subject: Palm Desert City Council Meeting February 27, 2020-Regarding Amending Article 14 of Resolution 2018-16 and the Operation and Maintenance Agreement of November 2017 The City Council meeting of January 9,2020 having been continued until February 13, 2020 and subsequently to February 27, 2020 provides an opportunity to thank Mayor Pro-Tempore Kelly and the Council for allowing additional time to review the request for amending two (2) significant items. In my January 9, 2020 letter, I recommended that PD Holdings, LLC be required to provide a bond to insure efficient and timely completion of re -purposing the former PDCC Executive Course. After speaking to Ryan StendeIl I understand the City's position in rejecting this proposal; however I still would like some assurance that this project will be completed in a timely manner. The re -purposing of the Executive Course in an efficient and timely manner continues to be an extremely important matter to the 188 owners whose property abutts the course. The City Council has appropriately recognized this unsatisfactory condition by delaying the amendment to the Operation and Maintenance Agreement of November, 2017 which would leave the Executive Course in "Limbo" for any maintenance, water, etc. until the entire re -purposing was complete. PD Holdings, LLC has thus far "Been less than a desirable neighbor" by allowing their property to deteriorate from a beautiful green and "park like" setting to area consistent with "open desert" through lack of water and regularly timely mowing of the weeds. I as well my neighbors and the other owners to whom I have spoken believe the total re -purposing by completing the entire 69 units should be completed in 18 months, but NO LATER than May 1, 2022. If D. R. Horton can complete 92 units in less than 1 year; PD Holdings, LLC should be able to complete 69 units in less than 2 years which amount to approximately 3 units per month for this "Cookie Cutter" project; One floor plan repeated 69 times. If PD Holdings, LLC lacks the expertise, experience or financial agility to complete this project in the time we have suggested possibly their parent company/partner/associate Monarck Development Co. Surrey, B.C. who specializes in all aspects of property development including site acquisition, design, construction, marketing and sales from conception to completion. Monarck assists investors in turning their vision into a reality as stated on their website. The amendment to revise the $12.50 per square foot "In -Lieu -Affordable Housing Fee" should remain as agreed to by PD Holding, LLC in Article 14 of Resolution 2018-16 of May 10, 2018. The offer to give 2.5 acres of unused land behind hole #4 for expansion of Joe Mann Park is a generous offer but should not be part of the " In Leiu of Affordable Housing Fee". Any reduction adversely affects the California State required development of affordable housing requirement and most probably would have to be made up by Palm Desert Taxpayers. If PD Holdings, LLC propose to construct units in 1 tract at a time, as they sell, this should be prohibited; however if allowed all permits and fees for every unit in that tract must be advanced prior to any work is commenced; Tract 37240, "32" units, Tract 37241 "19 units" and Tract 37242 "18 units". This project is unlike "Sage Palm Desert", by Ponderrosa Homes, "Genesis" Palm Desert, by G. H. A. Companies or "Domani" Palm Desert by Rilington Group all of which are built on raw land, open space and pull permits as they are needed. The PD Holdings, LLC project is being built down the middle of existing, occupied homes on both sides of approximately 200ft wide former fairways and should be simultaneously built for the entire tract. The disruption to existing residents by noise, excavation, dust, traffic etc. must be limited to the greatest extent possible. The Tracts that are not under current construction shall be covered (treated) with a ground stabilization, dust prevention material similar to that material used by CalTrans on areas of bare or exposed soil. When the Executive Course was closed in 2013 Mr Wil Weinkauf stated "it was due to costs" $300,000.00 per year expense and $80,000.00 per year revenue. Perhaps some of the approximate $1,400,000.00 7 year savings could be used for soil stabilization and dust prevention on the property. A final thought, this project must be completed in a timely manner, no more 7 year waiting. Thank you for your consideration of these suggestions. Please include these comments in the minutes of the City Council meeting. Jack L Forney CC: Ryan StendelI Eric Ceja Rachelie D.

We strenuously object to this action or any action by the city or PDCC owners to breach, violate or invalidate the deed declaration and covenant on tract 2137. We also strongly object to city's modifying the existing operating and maintenance agreement which the PDCC owners have failed to adhere to its terms and the city has failed to enforce them. Furthermore, as stated in previous correspondence, the city has failed to follow proper process and procedure in its handling of the executive course development project which is subject to review. We reserve all legal rights and remedies against the city, the PDCC owners and the PDCCA in these matters. We also reserve the right to join any other parties who may have cause for action on these matters. Rachelle please confirm that this email will be made part of the public record for both the closed session item referenced in the agenda addendum and the public hearing Item A regarding resolution2020-21 and modification of the existing operating and maintenance agreement.

We are already hearing questions about whether or not a dog park expansion is under consideration, active vs passive activities, fencing, lighting, noise etc. For the many of of us living on tract 2137 which includes Declaration 2137 that the property be maintained as a golf course (attached is PDCC Attorney Patterson letter to City detailing this issue), we have two questions which may be more appropriate for Attorney Stendell to address: 1 How is the proposal to for a park expansion possible given the2.5 acres of land under consideration is part of the tract 2137 and the declaration? 2 Is the city altering or eliminating the declaration in this transaction. If the city is in fact altering or eliminating the declaration that the tract remain a golf course, are they proposing it for only the 2.5 acres for the park or for the entire tract? I am not sure if you are aware of this but just in case for notification purposes, there is a separate HOA from the PDCCA HOA, called Garden Apartments HOA, which has units along Michigan Drive including units that would back up to the park.

I have attached a map showing the area for park expansion that is currently being considered. Prior to designing the park the City Council 1st needs to approve the proposal. We anticipate that could happen on February 13th. If approved, the City's Park Commission and City staff will solicit feedback from neighbors and park users about the expansion plans. The design of the park will include community feedback. Although not finalized, myself and other staff members are sensitive to the homes that back into the park area and we are supportive of more passive uses (walking paths and seating area) and new landscaping rather than active uses (basketball courts and playground equipment). If approved, we will reach out to all adjacent properties for your input. Please let me know if you have any questions.
