CITY OF PALM DESERT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Commission From: Nick Melloni, Senior Planner Date: August 30, 2022 Case No.: MISC 22-0009 Subject: Consideration of a design review for a new front entry façade modification and minor addition to the Palm Desert Community Center located at 43900 San Pablo Avenue. 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. On April 26, 2022, DRD appeared before the Architectural Review Commission (ARC) with a proposal to construct a new front entry façade improvement. The item was continued subject to the following design comments: 1) Explore other options for design concepts, consider use of materials in a different arrangement. 2) Items to consider include but are not limited to, revisit color palette to ensure new colors being introduced are harmonious with the existing color palette, a change in plane between stone veneer columns and roof overhang, an increase in the depth between the roof overhang and stone veneer parapets, and on the north elevation, extend the proposed roof overhang to overlap the existing building to provide integration between the new and existing structures; and 3) Special attention should be given to corner details of stone veneer application to ensure pattern remains natural looking. 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 façade improvement is a MISC 22-0009 – Palm Desert Community Center Page 2 of 5 August 30, 2022 component of an extensive interior remodel to expand and renovate the front lobby, expand the exercise room, activity room, restrooms, locker areas, administration areas, and includes the addition of a catering kitchen. The exterior modifications are subject to design review approval and include: • A 1,520 square-foot building addition located at the main front entry. • Front entry glazing modifications for new windows and main entry. • Addition of a front entry tower at a height of 20’-2”. • Addition of window canopy awnings and shade screening. • The façade is to match the body of the existing building colors and add in a new color for trims and awning/shade structures. • Application of a new exterior stone veneer. The table below illustrates the Applicant’s revisions to the exterior elevations in response to ARC comments: ARC Comment Design Response Explore other options for design concepts, consider use of materials in a different arrangement. The revised design has increased the height of the main entry tower from 16’- 2.5” to 20’-2” for added vertical massing and scale to highlight the location of the main entry. Additionally, the exterior material palette has been revised by: • Removal of the fiber cement panels around new windows. • Color change for the stone veneer panels from dark grey to light tan. Items to consider include but are not limited to, revisit color palette to ensure new colors being introduced are harmonious with the existing color palette, a change in plane between stone veneer columns and roof overhang, an increase in the depth between the roof overhang and stone veneer parapets, and on the north elevation, extend the proposed roof overhang to overlap the existing building to provide integration between the new and existing structures. • The exterior color palette has been revisited and now consists of tans and orange colors to better compliment the exterior finish of the existing building which primarily consists of painted split face blocks. • The stone veneer columns have been revised and now project 0’-8” from the building fascia. Additionally, the columns now project 0’-7” above the parapet line. • The roof overhang has been removed and replaced with window canopies to improve proportionality. MISC 22-0009 – Palm Desert Community Center Page 3 of 5 August 30, 2022 Special attention should be given to corner details of stone veneer application to ensure pattern remains natural looking. • The renderings show the stone veneer features a mitered corner. • The entry tower shows the stone veneer on the face and extending 4” on the parapet returns before terminating. 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 low planters as shown on the site plan. The existing trees in proximity to the façade entry have been verified by the architect that they do not interfere with the new window canopies. 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 20 feet, 2 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” 20’-2” (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. MISC 22-0009 – Palm Desert Community Center Page 4 of 5 August 30, 2022 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 with 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 which would 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. 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 3 of this report. MISC 22-0009 – Palm Desert Community Center Page 5 of 5 August 30, 2022 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. Staff Recommendation Staff finds that the criteria of the design review has been met and the proposal is compatible with the existing building, therefore, approval of the project is recommended with the following conditions: 1. The stone veneer shall wrap at corners and should only terminate where there is a change in building plane or building massing. The final construction plans shall include sufficient detail to demonstrate how the stone veneer will be applied. 2. Final construction plans shall include a detail indicating the stone veneer will have mitered corners. 3. Final roof plan shall demonstrate the parapet return of the front entry tower is consistent with the elevations approved by ARC. 4. Final construction plans shall include a detail showing the stone veneer columns shall project a minimum of 0’-8” from the building fascia to be consistent with the elevations approved by ARC. 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. 2.

Throughout this process, design quality control measures have been implemented, and both owner and architects have been analyzing costs and pricing to make sure the project’s construction is still within budget. We know the current economic climate for materials and labor is quite erratic and difficult to pin down these days and we have tried to keep the spirit of the design in line with what was submitted previously while being conscious of this market volatility. The narrative below describes a number of strategic revisions and design changes the team has been engaged in partially due to cost implications, but also as a result of revisiting the concepts of sustainability, efficiency, and rational architectural design. New exhibits containing the revised elevations and renderings are attached. The revisions consist of the following categories: Reduced Glazing The design team realized after some careful sustainability studies and energy modeling that in this kind of desert climate, large expanses of glazing primarily only add to heat gain on the interior and are not all that environmentally efficient or effective. Thus, we have made the decision to reduce the sizes of all typical residential unit windows by 20-25%. This included eliminating the bottom panel of the window system on each residential unit and simplifying the glazed opening. The team also reduced the full-height storefront glazing shown at the exterior of all the stairwells. The staggered mullion pattern design was still kept intact by alternating the placement of now vinyl windows that still provide plenty of light into the stairs. We’ve also eliminated the storefront sidelight at the garage side entries, and simply provided a single storefront door. Window & Patio Door Frame Colors The color palette of the architecture wanted to remain light and airy; a critical aspect in this arid climate where dark colors can absorb heat. While we did keep many dark charcoal grey accents, we decided to change the color of all vinyl window frames and patio door frames from black to white. The design team thought this would contrast nicely with the other dark accents and help highlight the lighter colors of the building body better. Awnings and Vertical Metal Fins The previous design shows multiple horizontal awning elements and vertical fins. While these do help with window shading, the design team felt there were too many and that they were cluttering up the facades. We have eliminated a number of them and located the horizontal shades on the front elevations over residential windows on Level 3 only, and the vertical fins on the side elevations of the corner unit on Level 2 only. Reduced Fiber Cement The design team thought there was quite an extensive amount of the fiber cement wood-look siding being proposed and that some of the patterning was making the elevation look a bit busy. In many cases the locations were in very high and inaccessible spots on the façade like above the garages or at amenity decks. So we decided to reduce a bit and change the material of some of these locations to a light brown stucco while keeping the same hue in color as the fiber cement. We are now locating the siding just on the ground floor in Building A where the texture and patterning will be closer to the pedestrian level and more appreciated than higher up on the façade. They are located specifically at the corner units and adjacent to the entrances of the stairwells, where higher foot traffic will be. On Buildings B & C, the corner units still maintain the fiber cement patterning on Levels 2 and 3. Downspouts While analyzing our drainage strategy, internal roof drains were not turning out to be feasible or practical on this project. Internal drains are costly, hard to maintain since the pipes are inside the building, can lead to pooling of water at the roof and eventual leaks into the building, and result in higher parapets. The design team decided that incorporating a downspout system was much simpler and straightforward. The new elevations now show downspouts with the same dark charcoal as the other accents found on the building, to help set them apart as a feature element rather than an eyesore.

Sincerely, ROSIE LUA, SECRETARY ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION cc: File CITY OF PALM DESERT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Commission From: Nick Melloni, Senior Planner Date: August 30, 2022 – Revised Case No: PP/EA 22-0005 Subject: Consideration of a recommendation to the Planning Commission for approval of a Precise Plan and Environmental Assessment to construct a 53,368 square-foot, single-story personal storage building on a 1.87-acre site located at the northwest corner of Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive (APNs: 694-240-009, 0010, and 021). BACKGROUND On April 8, 2022, the project applicant, Scott A. Mommer Consulting, submitted applications to the Palm Desert Planning Division for a Precise Plan (PP), Environmental Assessment (EA), and Parcel Map Waiver (PMW) to develop a personal storage facility on behalf of West Coast Self - Storage. On May 10, 2022, Planning staff presented project elevations to the Architectural Review Commission (ARC) for design comment and feedback. The ARC did not take a formal action on the project, but provided feedback to the applicant on the project design: • Explore other options for design concepts utilizing integrated architecture. Create more variety and strengthen design elements, avoid monotonous/repetitious patterns. • Incorporate more architecture into roof line. • Revisit details/elements including but not limited to, blue metal roof cap, repetitive elements, material transitions in same plane, midsection wall plane setback on north elevation (Sheet A-3), window articulation, utility equipment locations and screening materials. • Revisit the design of the north elevation to incorporate more screening of the roll-up doors to reduce the visibility of the doors from Spyder Circle. • Revisit the design of elevation located at the corner intersection of Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive to create an articulated façade. • Revisit parapets to ensure all ends are concealed and/or returned inward enough to provide a three-dimensional appearance. • Revisit parapets to ensure they fully screen all roof-mounted equipment, provide a line-of- sight study that confirms equipment is screened from all angles. • Consider adding more ground coverage to landscape plan and ensure tree and plant selection is appropriate for the desert. PP/EA 22-0005 - West Coast Storage Facility Page 2 of 8 August 30, 2022 - Revised PROJECT SUMMARY A. Property Description: The project is located on a vacant 1.87-acre site at the northwest corner of Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive that is comprised of three contiguous parcels (Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 694-240-021, 009, and 010). The parcels are Lots 14, 15, and 16 of Parcel Map 24255, originally recorded in 2003. These parcels will be merged into a single parcel under a separate mapping action. The site has been previously rough graded and is surrounded by existing development consisting of light and service industrial uses to the north and single-family residential to the south. This site fronts upon three public streets with right-of-way improvements consisting of street, curb and gutter, and a developed meandering public sidewalk along the southern right-of-way. There is a dedication for a 20’-0” wide landscape and pedestrian easement at the eastern edge of the site along Dinah Shore Drive. The topography of the site is generally flat, sloping from west to east. B. Zoning and General Plan Designation: Zone: Service Industrial (SI) General Plan: Employment C.

Revisit the design of the north elevation to incorporate more screening of the roll-up doors to reduce the visibility of the doors from Spyder Circle. • Eliminated all roll-up doors on north elevation. Revisit the design of elevation located at the corner intersection of Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive to create an articulated façade. • Redesigned corner of building to feature taller roof form, with pitched roof shape, and glazing oriented towards street corner. Revisit parapets to ensure all ends are concealed and/or returned inward enough to provide a three-dimensional appearance. • Parapet ends provide for 10’-0” returns where there is a change in roof height. Consider adding more ground coverage to landscape plan and ensure tree and plant selection is appropriate for the desert. • Honey Mesquite replaced with Southern Live Oak. • 5-gallon minimum shrub size. • Shrub replaced per Coachella Valley Water District Design Manual. • Boulders added for hardscape variation and interest. Site Plan and Parking The proposed project occupies the majority of the parcel with a lot coverage percentage (lot to building coverage) of 66.1%. The building wall of the structure forms a continuous perimeter along the Dick Kelly Drive and Dinah Shore Drive street frontages where the building is located at or near the minimum setback. Site access is available by two driveways located on Spyder Circle. The PP/EA 22-0005 - West Coast Storage Facility Page 4 of 8 August 30, 2022 - Revised building office is located on the northern elevation near the proposed central site access. Perimeter areas of the site are planted with desert appropriate landscaping. The proposed plan provides eight (8) onsite parking spaces and two (2) 24-foot deep loading stalls for truck traffic. Access and Circulation The site is designed with two vehicular access points on Spyder Circle. The final location of these driveways is still pending review by the Palm Desert Engineering Division and Public Works. The western driveway will be relocated to align with an existing driveway for the development located on the north side of Spyder Circle. The western approach will allow for full turn movements. The eastern driveway will be restricted to right-turn exit movements only. The internal drive aisles are private and provide full turn movements for access to the eight onsite parking spaces. The Applicant has provided turning templates to demonstrate vehicle maneuverability within the drive aisle. A portion of the parking area will be gated for security purposes to allow customers to park and load storage. The site has been designed to provide fire access. No access has been provided on Dick Kelly Drive in order to maintain a continuous frontage for the existing sidewalk area and existing residential properties on the opposite side of the street. Architecture and Screening The 52,724 square foot building is proposed as single-story. The architecture is desert contemporary characterized by: • An exterior color palette consisting of primarily desert tones. • An exterior material palette consisting of stucco (20/30 coarse finish), split-face CMU block, vertical ribbed insulated metal panels, standing-seam metal roof, spandrel glass, and metal awnings. • Flat roof with varying parapet height. • Building pop-outs. • Tower elements at building corners. • Decorative trellises. The Applicant is proposing roof-mounted HVAC units. Units dedicated to the eastern portion of the building will be screened within the tower element over the onsite office. The units on the western portion of the building are proposed behind the building parapet. The final location of these units should be conditioned to ensure they are screened from all vantages of surrounding public areas with consideration to the varying parapet heights. Fire riser and electrical utility rooms are provided on the floor plan to ensure utilities are screened. Access doors to these rooms face towards the interior parking area of the site and will not be readily visible from public streets. PP/EA 22-0005 - West Coast Storage Facility Page 5 of 8 August 30, 2022 - Revised Landscaping Landscape for the site consists of a mix of desert appropriate live plantings which includes: Trees: • Sweet Acacia, California Fan Palm, Southern Live Oak, and Desert Museum Palo Verde Shrubs/Accents: • Century Plant, Octopus Agave, Centennial Baccharis, Oo-la-la bougainvillea, Mexican Bird of Paradise, Dwarf Bottle Brush, Texas Ranger, and Mexican Bush Sage Ground Cover: • Parry’s Agave, Silver Bush Morning Glory, Trailing Indigo Bush, Red Yucca, Furhmans Red Sage, and Yellow Butterfly Vine Hardscape: • Landscape Boulders and Decomposed Granite Live plantings are located along the perimeter street frontages. The plan identifies the landscape area will use a drip irrigation system. The eastern edge of the site along Dinah Shore Drive is sloped as the building pad will be graded with an elevation approximately 4 feet to 5 feet above the street curb. ANALYSIS Development Standards The project site is zoned SI and allows the development of personal storage as a permitted use with the approval of a Precise Plan by the Palm Desert Planning Commission in accordance with Palm Desert Municipal Code Section (PDMC) 25.72.030. Development in the SI zone is subject to development standards provided under PDMC 25.16.50. The table below summarizes the project’s conformance analysis.

The proposal provides a minimum of eight (8) parking spaces onsite. No onsite manager’s units are proposed; therefore, the project exceeds minimum parking requirements. ZONING ORDINANCE SUMMARY ARC approval is required for all Precise Plan applications per PDMC Section 25.68.020 (A). Findings for ARC decisions are listed under PDMC Section 25.68.040 – Findings of the ARC. Findings in support of the project are listed below: To approve a design review application, the ARC shall find the following: A. That the proposed development conforms to any legally adopted development standards. The proposed development conforms with legally adopted development standards set forth by the Service Industrial zoning designation as established by PDMC 25.16.050. A summary of the conformance with these development standards, including setbacks, floor area ratio, building height, and parking is provided in the above analysis section. As summarized, the project conforms with all applicable development standards. The proposed utilities are screened or within the building in accordance with PDMC 25.40.090. 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 project is located at the corner of Dick Kelly Drive and Dinah Shore Drive. The project use and building design provide for a transition between commercial and industrial area intended for Employment uses, and residential uses. Personal storage uses are not anticipated to generate nuisance impacts such as excess noise, sound, or odor, in comparison to other light industrial or commercial uses permitted within the Service Industrial zone such as furniture manufacturing, warehousing, and auto repair. The building design does not create openings or storage areas that face upon neighboring residential uses. Additionally, vehicular access points are located upon street frontages facing existing light industrial areas to limit additional traffic hazards or congestion on Dick Kelly Drive and preserve the existing meandering sidewalk for pedestrians. 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 is compatible with the development pattern within the surrounding area by proposing a single-story personal storage building. The areas to the north o f the site are generally industrial and developed with a mix of light industrial and office buildings. PP/EA 22-0005 - West Coast Storage Facility Page 7 of 8 August 30, 2022 - Revised The proposed storage building retains the commercial nature and architecture of these existing buildings. The areas to the south of the project site are vacant and reserved for future multi-family apartment development at densities of up to 22 dwelling units per acre. The project scale is appropriate to the scale of the residential uses by maintaining a single - story height and provides a transition by providing a wide landscape buffer for areas which abut the existing residential areas. The proposal implements design goals and policies of the General Plan including: Land Use Policy 2.9 – Preserves continuous sidewalk areas along high-volume traffic corridors, minimizing vehicle intrusions across sidewalks, and screens parking areas by placing them along the lower traffic volume street, Spyder Circle. Land Use Policy 3.16 – The proposed use and building provides an appropriate transition between Employment land use areas and Neighborhood land use areas for residential uses. Land Use Policy 4.6 – Provides for industrial compatibility by locating drive aisles on area separated from residential to minimize impacts to residential 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 design utilizes high-quality finishes and features a quality contemporary style characterized by varying parapet heights, smooth stucco exterior finishes, and desert compatible colors. The buildings provide for a quality visual aesthetic along Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive. The project also includes extensive onsite landscaping along perimeter frontages. 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 development conforms with legally adopted development standards for the Service Industrial zoning district. A summary of the conformance with these development standards, including setbacks, lot coverage, building height, open space, and parking is provided on the conformance analysis table on page 5 of this staff report. As summarized, the project conforms with all applicable development standards. The proposed utilities are screened or within the building in accordance with PDMC 25.40.090. F. That the overall development of the land shall be designed to ensure the protection of the public health, safety, and general welfare. The preliminary grading plan has been reviewed to ensure the design of the project incorporates the proper improvements including adequately sized retention basins for onsite drainage. In addition, the overall building design ensures the protection of the public health, safety, and general welfare. PP/EA 22-0005 - West Coast Storage Facility Page 8 of 8 August 30, 2022 - Revised STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the ARC determines that the requirements of the findings have been met based on the analysis and approves the request with modifications as a recommendation of approval to the Planning Commission. The applicant must still undergo staff review for compliance with Engineering requirements. Staff further recommends that modifications required by the ARC and those listed below be added to the motion as conditions of approval. Furthermore, should major design comments arise during the discussion, staff recommends the ARC clearly outline the requested changes and continues the case. Staff recommended modifications include: • The applicant shall provide a meandering sidewalk and additional landscaping on the Dinah Shore Drive frontage, rather than curb adjacent landscaping, to maintain consistency with existing industrial development along the corridor, while considering vehicular line-of-sight for Dinah Shore Drive and Spyder Circle. • The applicant shall provide additional landscape plantings for trees along Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive. • The applicant shall provide additional cobble as a part of the landscape plan to provide a variation in texture, soil stabilization, and for resistance to high winds. • The applicant shall verify that the roof-top units on the western portion of the building shall fully screened with consideration to the changes in parapet height to ensure there is no visibility from all vantage points. • The applicant shall identify the minimum number of landscape plantings for each respective live planting shown on the landscape plan. • The proposed exterior wall signage construction, if proposed facing existing residential and/or residentially zoned properties, shall utilize halo-illumination to reduce glare for adjacent residential areas. • Roof drainage systems shall be placed within interior walls. • Applicant shall provide screening of parking areas from Spyder Circle by means of low block wall, landscape, or berm. • The walls of the trash enclosure shall be finished to match the primary building.

Mommer Consulting 28827 N 91st Avenue Peoria AZ, 85383 Subject: Preliminary review and discussion to provide architectural comments for a precise plan for West Coast Storage Facility, a 53,378-square-foot personal storage facility located at the northwest corner of Dick Kelly Drive and Dinah Shore Drive. The Architectural Review Commission of the City of Palm Desert considered your request at its meeting of May 10, 2022: Design comments were provided by the Commission for the applicant’s consideration for Case No. PP 22-0005. No action was taken by the Commission on this item. Comments and concerns provided during the discussion include, but are not limited to: • Explore other options for design concepts utilizing integrated architecture. Create more variety and strengthen design elements, avoid monotonous/repetitious patterns. • Incorporate more architecture into roof line. • Revisit details/elements including but not limited to, blue metal roof cap, repetitive elements, material transitions in same plane, midsection wall plane setback on north elevation (Sheet A-3), window articulation, utility equipment locations and screening materials. • Revisit the design of the north elevation to incorporate more screening of the roll-up doors to reduce the visibility of the doors from Spyder Circle. • Revisit the design of elevation located at the corner intersection of Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive to create an articulated façade. • Revisit parapets to ensure all ends are concealed and/or returned inward enough to provide a three-dimensional appearance. • Revisit parapets to ensure they fully screen all roof-mounted equipment, provide a line-of-sight study that confirms equipment is screened from all angles. • Consider adding more ground coverage to landscape plan and ensure tree and plant selection is appropriate for the desert. To view video or audio for the discussion on this item, including comments provided by the Commission, please visit the Architectural Review Commission Information Center website at, https://www.cityofpalmdesert.org/our-city/committees-and-commissions/architectural-review- commission-information-center. If you have any questions, please contact Associate Planner, Nick Melloni, at (760) 346-0611, Extension 479 or nmelloni@cityofpalmdesert.org. Sincerely, ROSIE LUA, SECRETARY ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION cc: File PP22-0005 West Coast Storage Special ARC Meeting August 30, 2022 Applicant Responses to ARC Comments 1 • Explore other options for design concepts utilizing integrated architecture. Create more variety and strengthen design elements, avoid monotonous/repetitious patterns. RESPONSE: A greater variety of unusual shapes and compositions have been incorporated in the re-design of the façade to create interest throughout the building the perimeter. • Incorporate more architecture into roof line. RESPONSE: Sharper changes in elevation have been implemented as well as pitched roof sections. • Revisit details/elements including but not limited to, blue metal roof cap, repetitive elements, material transitions in same plane, midsection wall plane setback on north elevation (Sheet A3), window articulation, utility equipment locations and screening materials. RESPONSE: The blue metal cap has been removed from the design in favor of bare plaster parapet more in line with the surrounding context. A variety of elements have been incorporated in the design and the typical wall setbacks occur at 24” inches minimum with overall setbacks of 4’ per each mass articulation. The spandrel windows have been rethought to make them be perceived more as a composition element rather than typical window openings. Overall parapet height has been raised 12” minimum and goes up to 24’ at the highest point. The proposed mechanical units that presented the most concern will be housed and enclosed within the highest element demarking the leasing office. • Revisit the design of the north elevation to incorporate more screening of the roll-up doors to reduce the visibility of the doors from Spyder Circle. RESPONSE: Roll-up doors facing the main north driveway have been removed. • Revisit the design of elevation located at the corner intersection of Dinah Shore Drive and Dick Kelly Drive to create an articulated façade. RESPONSE: Particular treatment has been giving to this corner to create intertest with a volume that faces the corner in acknowledgement and bows as a welcoming gesture. • Revisit parapets to ensure all ends are concealed and/or returned inward enough to provide a three-dimensional appearance. Revisit parapets to ensure they fully screen all roof-mounted equipment, provide a line-of-sight study that confirms equipment is screened from all angles. RESPONSE: Typical parapet return has been revised to show 10’ returns. The east wing mechanical equipment will be enclosed by a vented structure on top of the leasing office. The mechanical units on the west wing are proposed to sit at the center of the roof. This zone elevation is expected to be about 12’ high and the mechanical units are not projected to be more than 5’ tall. With the lower parapet being 16’ high, we are convinced that the sight angle from any point won’t be able to reach them. PP22-0005 West Coast Storage Special ARC Meeting August 30, 2022 Applicant Responses to ARC Comments 2 • Consider adding more ground coverage to landscape plan and ensure tree and plant selection is appropriate for the desert. RESPONSE: The desert theme of the landscape proposed indicates typical plant spacing found in this region. Summary of landscaping changes are as follows: 1. Replaced mesquite with Quercus virginiana 2. All shrubs are not available in 5-gallon sizing. the plant list has been separated to reflect shrubs in 5 gallon and shrubs in 1 gallon 3. Two shrubs have been revised from the selected Coachella Valley Water District Manual. 4. Flowering shrubs included 5. Boulders added to the Plan for visual interest CITY OF PALM DESERT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Commission From: Randy Chavez, Community Services Manager Shawn Muir, Management Analyst Date: August 30, 2022 Subject: Informational item to discuss proposed amendment to Palm Desert Municipal Code, Section 24.04.060 (Invasive Plant Species) relating to prohibited landscape materials for development design and installation. BACKGROUND Staff proposes to include prevention measures by updating the City’s Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) Section 24.04.060 in order to prohibit the use of certain invasive and noxious plants in the City by preventing the installation of certain nuisance and invasive plant species in City parks, parkway areas, parking lots, right of way, as well as private property that may cause a threat to public safety. The City will use the guidance of the California Invasive Plant Inventory and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) invasive noxious weeds database to identify invasive and noxious plant materials, such as the Mexican fan palm (Washingtonia robusta). Staff has also identified certain uses of non-prohibited plants that create a nuisance within public rights of way and on private property in the City. For example, planting of the North Indian rosewood tree (Dalbergia sissoo) causes buckling of paved areas when planted near parking lots and sidewalks leading to potential safety issues and increased maintenance costs. Also, Pencil Cactus (Euphorbia tirucalli) produces a poisonous latex that can cause temporary blindness. Therefore, such plants will not be planted within the City and will be prohibited in any City approved landscaping plans. Prior to proposing this amendment for approval to the City Council staff would like to provide you with an opportunity to provide feedback on this matter. Attachment: 1. Draft Ordinance Amendment to PDMC Section 24.04.060 (redlines) Attachment 1 INVASIVE PLANT SPECIES ORDINANCE (REDLINE VERSION) ORDINANCE NO. ______________________ AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER 24.04.060 (INVASIVE PLANT SPECIES) AS RELATED TO PROHIBITED LANDSCAPE MATERIALS FOR DEVELOPMENT DESIGN AND INSTALLATION WHEREAS, in 2022 and 2013, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 1374 § 1, and Ord. 1258 § 1, respectively, (Chapter 24.04.060 of the Municipal Code) which prohibited invasive plants invasive noxious weeds from landscape design; and WHEREAS, the Code references the California Invasive Plant Inventory and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) invasive noxious weeds database; and WHEREAS, staff have determined that additional local plants are invasive, noxious, or otherwise detrimental to the maintenance of landscaped areas of the City. Amending the Ordinances would prohibit NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Recitals. The City Council finds that the above recitals are true and correct and, accordingly, are incorporated as a material part of this Ordinance. Section 2. CEQA. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) because this ordinance is merely clarifying existing law and making minor changes to the City’s existing Municipal Code and pursuant to 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because these clarifications and minor modifications to the City’s Municipal Code have no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. Section 3. Amendment to Municipal Code. Chapter 24.04.060 of the City of Palm Desert, California, Municipal Code shall be amended and restated to read as follows: 24.04.060 Invasive, noxious, and nuisance plant species. A. Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this Section 24.04.060 is to; (1) preserve the public health and safety, (2) protect public and private property from the damaging Attachment 2 – Invasive Plant Species (Redline Version) Page 2 of 4 spread of invasive, noxious and nuisance plants and; (3) to protect indigenous plants and wildlife. B. Definitions: As used in this Section, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated: Invasive Plant Species – An “invasive plant species” is any plant species that is: (1) non-native to the ecosystem under consideration; and (2) whose introduction may cause or causes economic or environmental harm or harm to human health.
