PRELIMINARY MINUTES ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION APRIL 12, 2022 7 VII. ADJOURNMENT With Architectural Review Commission concurrence, Vice Chair Lambell adjourned the meeting at 4:21 p.m. Rosie Lua, Secretary Melinda Gonzalez, Recording Secretary CITY OF PALM DESERT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Commission From: Nick Melloni, Associate Planner Date: April 26, 2022 Subject: SARC 22-0003 – T-Mobile Awning Change – 73495 Highway 111, Suite 1 Project Summary and Background The project is a request to replace five (5) existing fabric awnings for the T-Mobile tenant space, a retail cell phone store. The dual tenant building is located at the south-west corner of Highway 111 and San Pablo Avenue within the El Paseo Square retail-commercial center (73495 Highway 111, Suite 1). The building currently features eight (8) existing awnings with matching black canvas, five (5) of which belong to the applicant. The second tenant is Vylla, a real estate business. The project applicant, Coast Sign on behalf of T-Mobile, proposes to remove five existing black canvas awnings within the frontage of the tenant space and replace them with magenta canvas awnings. The proposal will swap out the canvas material only; no modifications are proposed to the existing awning structure. Four (4) of the awnings face San Pablo Avenue and the remaining awning faces towards the interior parking lot of the center. The new canvas is manufactured by PrintCraft in 30532-1 Magenta (see signage detail on Sheet 3 through 5 and manufacturer specification sheet). Signage within the El Paseo Square commercial center is regulated by a master sign program. This sign program addresses specifics for signage area, construction, and location for wall signs and monument signage. The sign program does not regulate awnings and therefore, all awnings are subject to requirements of the Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC). Earlier this year, the applicant received approval of a sign permit to modify the existing signage for T-Mobile. The approved building permit consists of three total individual through-lit channel letter signs, with magenta letters located on three frontages, the west, east and south. Zoning Ordinance Summary Staff has analyzed the findings provided in PDMC Section 25.68.050 (C)(2) for conformance as shown below: 1. That the sign is necessary for the applicant’s enjoyment of substantial trade and property rights. SARC 22-0003 – T-Mobile Awning Page 2 of 4 April 26, 2022 The awnings do not feature signage lettering. Signage is provided by existing wall signs for the tenant, which are located on the east, west and south elevations. 2. That the sign is consistent with the intent and purpose of this chapter and title. The awnings are consistent with other applicable zoning requirements pursuant to PDMC 25.56 which restrict the placement of signage on the awning and prohibit illuminated awnings. 3. That the sign does not constitute a detriment to public health, safety, and welfare. The proposed awnings are not placed in a manner which is detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare. The proposal replaces existing awnings with new fabric which is compatible in size and quality with the existing awning. 4. That the size, shape, color, height, and placement of the sign is compatible with and will have a harmonious relationship to the building it identifies, the surrounding neighborhoods, and other signs in the area. The proposed awnings feature a magenta color in fabric material which is not found elsewhere within the existing El Paseo Square commercial center. Existing awnings within the center consist of metal awnings which are integrated into contemporary architecture of the buildings and suites or black canvas awnings such as those found on the existing building and 73399 Highway 111. 5. That both the location of the proposed sign and the design of its visual elements (lettering, words, figures, colors, decorative motifs, spacing, and proportions) are legible under normal viewing conditions prevailing where the sign is to be located. The awning does not feature any lettering or design motifs. The color is visually prominent against the neutral desert colors of the existing building and adjacent center. 6. That the location, height, and design of the proposed sign does not obscure from view or unduly detract from existing or adjacent signs, and does not in any way compromise the health or safety of any person(s). The proposed awning color and hue is distinct amongst existing awnings located on the existing building and portions of the El Paseo Square which are visible from Highway 111. Existing awnings are generally neutral. Tenant visibility is prominent through the use of wall signs and monument signs which are regulated through a master sign program. 7. That the location and design of the proposed sign, and its size, shape, illumination, and color are compatible with the visual characteristics of the surrounding area so as not to detract from or cause depreciation of the value of adjacent developed properties. SARC 22-0003 – T-Mobile Awning Page 3 of 4 April 26, 2022 The proposed size and shape of the awnings are compatible with the visual characteristics of existing awnings as no structural modifications are proposed and the size matches existing conditions. The proposed color is not found elsewhere in the center. Existing architecture features contemporary forms with desert colors and finishes. 8. That the location and design of a proposed sign in close proximity to a residential district does not adversely affect the value or character of the adjacent residential uses. The location is zoned Downtown Core (D.O.) and allows potential residential mixed- use development. The existing area is fully developed with commercial uses and there is no existing residential in the surrounding area. 9. That any neon tubing used in conjunction with any sign is incorporated as an integral part of the sign design with careful attention to color, intensity of light, and the use of colors that are not overly bright. No bright lighting, neon, or otherwise, is proposed as a part of the proposed awning fabric change. 10. That the quantity of information displayed in the sign does not cause visual clutter. The proposal will replace existing awnings and do not feature sign copy or other information and as such do not cause visual clutter. Relevant code requirements pertaining to awnings include: • PDMC Section 25.56.070 - Awning signage is permitted provided the signage is placed on either the awning or valance but not both. The proposed awning conforms with this design requirement. • PDMC Section 25.56.050 - Prohibits awnings that are back-lit and appear internally illuminated. The proposed awning will not feature illumination. • PDMC Section 25.20.031 - Establishes design guidelines for store fronts in the Downtown zone and requires a minimum overhead clearance of 8 feet and maximum clearance of 10 feet for new awnings. This section is intended for pedestrian oriented storefront. The proposed awning is located on an existing building which is primarily oriented for vehicular traffic on Highway 111 and does not feature pedestrian elements. The awning still features a minimum eight-foot clearance and meets this requirement. Staff Recommendation The awning conforms with applicable zoning requirements as it does not feature signage, is non- illuminated, and conforms with clearance requirements established by the Downtown code. SARC 22-0003 – T-Mobile Awning Page 4 of 4 April 26, 2022 However, staff finds that the unique color is out of place with existing awnings located within the existing center and is unable to make all required findings for awning approval, and therefore recommends denial. Alternatively, if the ARC finds the color is compatible, it may approve the awning change. Staff recommends incorporating the following conditions if a motion of approval is made: o Awning fabric be resistant to wear and sun damage and include a condition of maintenance to the awning with regular cleaning to maintain a like-new appearance; and o Project revisions will be reviewed by staff and return to the ARC should there be any conditions of approval which cannot be resolved with Applicant.

The proposed structure is a single-family residence located within an area developed with existing single-family residences. The proposed home is a permitted land use and will not impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood. Contemporary style architecture featuring flat roofs is commonly found in residential neighborhoods in the Ironwood community and other areas of south Palm Desert. The home complies with allowable setbacks and will not unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of existing homes in the area. The property is not anticipated to generate traffic greater than the typical single-family home. C. That the design and location of the proposed development is in keeping with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and is not detrimental to the harmonious, orderly, and attractive development contemplated by this title and the General Plan of the City. The home features contemporary architecture which is commonly used on custom- single family residences within gated communities and other neighborhoods of south SARC22-0008 – JFK Trail Single Family Residence Page 3 of 3 April 26, 2022 Palm Desert. The proposal is compatible and harmonious with surrounding development. D. That the design and location of the proposed development would provide a desirable environment for its occupants, as well as for its neighbors and that it is aesthetically of good composition, materials, textures, and colors. The proposed architecture is contemporary in nature and features an exterior material palette consisting of stucco, stone veneer, and metal paneling. The massing of the building is highly varied and with a high degree of articulation. E. That the proposed use conforms to all the requirements of the zone in which it is located and all other applicable requirements. The proposed use complies with applicable development standards as outlined on page 2 of this report. F. That the overall development of the land shall be designed to ensure the protection of the public health, safety, and general welfare The development of the property is designed to ensure the protection of the public health, safety, and general welfare. The site is adequately served by utilities. The home will grade in accordance with City requirements to ensure drainage does not affect neighboring properties and is setback from adjacent properties in accordance with zoning requirements. Staff Recommendation Staff finds that the criteria of the design review has been met and the proposal is compatible with the surrounding area, therefore, recommending approval of the project as presented. Staff further recommends that any exceptions or modifications required by the ARC be added to the motion as conditions of approval. Attachment: 1. Plans Submitted by Applicant.

BACKGROUND In 1988, the City and Desert Recreation District (DRD) then known as the Coachella Valley Recreation and Park District entered into a lease agreement to occupy the Palm Desert Community Center (PDCC), a 20,700 square-foot building, as well as other facilities and parking areas located within the Civic Center Park. Project Summary The Applicant, DRD, is proposing to construct a new front entry façade improvement on an existing building located at 43900 San Pablo Avenue. The modifications include the following: PDCC Front Entry: Existing and Modification Existing Modification Front entry elements include split face façade with metal feature, and overhang roofs with a height of 16 feet, 2 ½ inches. New entry façade improvement with metal canopies, varying materials, enlarged storefront door entry, roof overhangs, with an addition of 1,647 square feet of enclosed area at the entry at 16 feet, 2 ½ inches tall. The modifications are 16 feet, 2 ½ inches tall which is the same height as the existing entry of the building. The added 1,647 square feet includes areas to extend the lobby, exercise room, and activity room which is proposed within the interior modifications of the floor plan. Additional Project Details: No proposal has been presented to paint the main building; therefore, the existing color of the building and split face block façade remains as is. The two existing planters will be removed and replaced with two (2) smaller planters at either side of the entry. The existing MISC 22-0009 – Palm Desert Community Center Page 2 of 3 April 26, 2022 trees in proximity to the façade entry have been verified by the architect that they do not interfere with the new roof overhang. In addition, no landscaping changes are proposed since the addition does not affect the existing landscaping. ANALYSIS Development Standards The project is subject to the development standards set forth by the Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) for the Public/Institutional (P) Zone. No changes are proposed to the site plan, landscape plan, or overall parking facilities. The new entry proposal has a height of 16 feet, 2 ½ inches which is under the allowed maximum of 35 feet in the P zone. Table 1 below outlines the project’s zoning conformance analysis. Table 1 Zoning Conformance STANDARD P ZONE PROJECT CONFORMS Height 35’-0” 16’-2.5” (New Entry) Yes Lot Coverage - - N/A Parking 8 spaces per 1,000 square feet 1.84 spaces per unit Yes ZONING ORDINANCE SUMMARY Findings for Architectural Review Commission (ARC) decisions of design review applications are listed under Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) Section 25.68.040 as follows: A. That the proposed development conforms to any legally adopted development standards. The proposed project is in conformance with the legally adopted development standards set forth by the PDMC for the Public zoning district. A summary of the conformance with these development standards are analyzed above. As summarized, the project conforms will all applicable standards of the code. B. That the design and location of the proposed development and its relationship to neighboring existing or proposed developments and traffic is such that it will not impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood; and that it will not unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or proposed developments and that it will not create traffic hazards or congestion. The proposed design continues to be compatible with surrounding developments in the public facility and the proposed development will not create additional traffic to impair investment in the neighborhood. The revision to the architecture is equivalent in character and quality to the original approval and does not adversely impact surrounding developments. MISC 22-0009 – Palm Desert Community Center Page 3 of 3 April 26, 2022 C. That the design and location of the proposed development is in keeping with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and is not detrimental to the harmonious, orderly, and attractive development contemplated by this title and the General Plan of the City. The proposed project continues to be compatible with the development pattern within the Civic Center Park and harmonious in character to the surrounding area. The land use designation is Public Facility/Institutional District in the General Plan which promotes public facilities including community centers. Land Use Policy No. 4.10 (Civic identity) encourages public places to be designed to provide locations that reinforce community identity. The proposed building renovations creates a sense of space and interest to the Civic Center Park. D. That the design and location of the proposed development would provide a desirable environment for its occupants, as well as for its neighbors, and that it is aesthetically of good composition, materials, textures, and colors. The proposed project utilizes a good composition of new materials, textures, and colors for quality visual aesthetics enhancing the front entry with consideration of the compatibility to the existing building. E. That the proposed use conforms to all the requirements of the zone in which it is located and all other applicable requirements. The proposed project conforms with legally adopted development standards set forth by the Public/Institution Zoning District. A summary of the conformance with these development standards are outlined on page 2 of this report. F. That the overall development of the land shall be designed to ensure the protection of public health, safety, and general welfare. The proposed project did not modify the originally designed site plan which included hard surface pedestrian pathways and connections from the public right-of-way. In addition, the overall building design does not present any adverse impacts to the protection of public health, safety, and general welfare.
