CASES (Continued) Case No. 113 C - ROBERT CLARK (previously BOB DOWNS) - preliminary and final landscaping and parking lot layout plans for commercial building at 72-180 Highway 111; Jack Newville, Engineer, and Scott McKee, Landscape Designer, were present. The revised plans were reviewed by the Board. It was noted that all parking would now be located behind the building with the front portion of the build- ing landscaped. It was suggested that the walkway leading to the front of the building be stopped at the first door. Additionally, it was suggested that a walkway be provided to the other door from the other side of the building. It was noted that in addition to the landscaping being provided, street improvements were required. The applicant indicated that street improvement plans were being prepared and would be submitted to the Engineer- ing Department shortly. The landscaping plan was reviewed with it being deemed desirable to provide additional trees on the north side of the building. On a motion by Cook, seconded by Holden, the Board moved to grant preliminary and final approval of this request, subject to the following revisions: 1. Additional trees shall be provided around the north side of the building. 2. Street improvements to be installed as required by the Department of Public Works. 3. Parking spaces to be double striped per Municipal Code requirements. 4. Revised landscaping plans to be submitted to the Department of Environ- mental Services showing all required changes including those changes red -lined on submitted plans. Carried 5-0 (Cook, Holden, Jackson, Johnson, Martin). Case No. 92 C - BALLEW-MCFARLAND and WOODWARD DIKE - review of City of Palm Desert entry sign adjacent to Rusty Pelican Restaurant and public drinking fountain in parkway along Highway 111 at the southwest corner of Painters Path and Highway 111; John Wilbanks was present. The Board reviewed the revised entry sign and drinking fountain for the Restaurant Park location. It was deemed acceptable to provide a water fountain in the parkway on Highway 111. With regard to the entry sign, the Board felt that the sign, as submitted, did not to conform to their previous desires. The Board, at their last review, had indicated what they felt material, such as round concrete pillars, should be utilized for a background for the sign. Additionally, it was felt that additional badge locations should be provided for future use. The Board indicated that because this would be the main entry sign to the City, that a first quality design should be utilized. The Board felt that there was not adequate detail and information in addition to the design not being acceptable. The Board felt that with the.entry sign, as sub- mitted, there was a lack of compatibility between the rustic Rusty Pelican and sandblasted entry sign. A number of concerns of the Board were discussed. Staff did point out that the applicants may have been misinformed about the design of the entry sign. On a motion by Martin, seconded by Johnson, the Board moved to continue this item with the following items being provided in a subsequent review: 1. Submit a rendering showing the sign, landscaping, flag poles, and Rusty Pelican building to provide overall picture of what entry sign will look like. 2. Site plan to also include landscaping behind and around the entry sign (possibly the final landscaping plan could be used and modified to show up-to-date design). 3. Study possibility of modifying wording to say "Welcome to the City of Palm Desert" or possibly just saying "Palm Desert". 4. Redesign entry sign to utilize round concrete pillars or similar material to provide better compatibility with Rusty Pelican Restaurant. 5. Provide room for at least nine badges. 6. Provide one additional flag pole for special events. 7. Provide night lighting for flag poles through the use of lights mounted high enough onto the flag pole to eliminate vandalism. Carried 5-0 (Cook, Holden, Jackson, Johnson, Martin). a MINUTES PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION MAY 14, 1980 Page Three VI. PUBLIC HEARINGS (continued) Mr. Stein stated that he could not justify the uses but would wait until the Public Hearing.

Mr. Stein Planning and Applicants and asked for Chairman Miller asked if anyone present wished to speak in FAVOR or OPPOSITION to this case. MR. DON STAGE, 1313 Sandpiper, addressed his concern over the possible building of a bridge across Painters Path. Mr. Williams indicated that the Staff's recommended Conditions of Approval recommend a cul-de-sac in that area. Mr. Stage was also concerned that the year round rental might not succeed. Mr. Stein explained that if it failed it would fail as any other hotel, but was certain it would succeed. Mr. Stage pointed out that if it failed the individual owners would then have a problem of renting their units. Commissioner Kryder asked the applicant if the common property would be shared by the owners. Mr. Stein stated that they would have private membership. Commissioner McLachlan also explained why the project would be successful if they included a dining area and convention center. Commissioner Berkey stated that the Commission was not prepared to act on this project at this time and that there were a lot of unanswered questions that could be solved in time.
