Review of cases acted on by the Design Review Board at their meeting of September 20, 1977. Mr. Williams reviewed cases 111SA, 83MF, 87MF, 59C, noting that a late response was received from the City of Indian Wells in reference to Case 83MF recommending a channel down eastside of the tract. Chairman Berkey asked if the applicant would be required to join an assessment district. Mr. Cook noted that it was not within the Cook Street alignment. Mr. Williams noted that he mentioned the response received from City of Indian Wells just for the record and that the Conditions of Ap- proval covered the assessment district question. Mr. Freed reviewed Case No. 68MF pointing out the treatment along San Luis Rey including the berming and elevations. Com- missioner Reading questioned the visibility for vehicles on the road. Commissioner Snyder noted the plans were not ac- curate with regard to the road and its location. Some discussion followed regarding the roads, drainage channel, landscaping on streets as pointed out by Commissioner Reading. Case No. 59C was discussed further and Chairman Berkey asked if the applicant would tell the Commission of some of the features of his project. CHARLES MARTIN, 73-612 Highway 111, told the Commission of the sprawl type development he was proposing and noted that most of the area was covered with parking. He also noted the advantages of the solar energy concept he had proposed. The Commission commended Mr. Martin for his solar energy con- cept and the underground parking, both needed in our community. Com- missioner Kryder noted the ultra modern outside archectural treatment was not compatible to the surroundings. The Commissioners agreed that they appreciated the idea but hoped the applicant would bring in anpther concept for the outside architectural treatment.

WILLIAMS, Secretary /ks Minutes Palm Desert Design Review Board Meeting September 20, 1977 Page Two 6. Case No. 59C - CHARLES MARTIN - Review of preliminary plans for a new com- mercial office building on the south side of Highway 111, east of Panorama Drive. The applicant, Mr. Martin, was present. The board expressed its approval to Mr. Martin for seeing something dif- ferent and refreshing in Palm Desert. Mr. Urrutia also said that he was happy to see a building with underground parking being designed. Mr. Hill pointed out that the building code would require a second stairway and pro- hibit an opening in the west wall since it was adjacent to the property line and did not conform to fire protection requirements. Mr. Martin indicated that a building might not be placed on the other side of the property line. He agreed to work out this item and the paving of the parking area with Mr. Hill. It was moved by Hobbs and seconded by Urrutia to approve the concept subject to 10 conditions with a revised color scheme to delete Condition No. 5 dealing with roof mounted equipment (since the building would have solar water panels), and to have the applicant resolve the wall opening and paving requirements with Mr. Hill. Motion carried 4-0 (Johnson, Hobbs, Urrutia, Minturn). 7. Case No. 68MF - PALM DESERT VENTURE, LTD. - Review of final construction plans for 15 condo units located east of San Luis Rey and south of Shadow Lake Drive in the Shadow Mountain Resort and Racquet Club project. Frank Urrutia, project architect, represented the applicant. Since the plans were in conformance to the preliminary approval, it was moved that the case be approved by Hobbs and seconded by Minturn. Motion carried 3-0 (Hobbs, Minturn, Johnson) Urrutia abstained. 8. Discussion of Proposed Agenda for Joint Planning Commission -Design Review Board meeting of September 29, 1977. Urrutia and Minturn thought that there was some possibility that they might be unable to attend a meeting on that date. Hobbs suggested that the staff be sure to invite the new ORB member. It was also agreed that the meeting should be held at 4:30 rather than 7 p.m. Mr. Williams suggested that the ORB discuss a method of speeding up the review process. It would involve having only the ORB review final construction plans. Hobbs agreed and suggested that signs over $1000 in value be reviewed by only the DRB. He felt that this was feasible because of the relatively simple, appeal process for ORB cases. Mr. Williams also thought that they should dis- cuss combining the ORB review of the preliminary plans with the Planning Com- mission review of the Development Plan or Conditional Use Permit so that the Planning Commission would have the DRB's comments before it acted. Hobbs thought that the entire agenda could consist of just item D - Possible ways of improving the efficiency and effectiveness of,the design review process. The other ORB members agreed. 9. ADJOURNMENT Prior to ending the meeting, Bill Hobbs expressed his enjoyment at having served on the ORB with the other members. Chairman Johnson thanked Mr. Hobbs for his contributions and indicated that his presence would be missed. It was moved by Hobbs and seconded by Minturn to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously and the meeting ended at 6:12 p.m. SAM FREED, Assistant Planner As 45-275 PRICKLY PEAR LANE, PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA 92260 TELEPHONE (714) 346-0611 REPORT OF PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION DATE Oct. 5, 1977 APPLICANT PALM DESERT VENTURE 73-850 Fairway Drive m Desert.

LOCATION East side of San Luis Rey Avenue at Juniper Circle ZONE PR-7 The applicants have submitted final landscaping and irrigation plans for the phase presently under construction at the northeast corner of San Luis Rey and Juniper Circle. They have also submitted plans for the future phase at the southeast corner of San Luis Rey and Juniper. The landscaping plans, as submitted, lack detailed information on all plant types and are poorly designed. The use of trees and shrubs is not related to the site or buildings. Individual trees are primarily spotted throughout the site. Additionally, the existing trees on the site have not been indicated on the plans. There has been no clarification on shrubs which will be used, and shrubs are shown _ lined up around the buildings. Because of exposure to San Luis Rey Avenue, the landscaping should be well -designed and flow with the site. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Continue final landscaping plan approval, with the Design Review Board and Staff input incorporated, as follows: 1. Specify all plant types, sizes and locations. 2. Use groups of trees in landscaped areas. 3. Show and incorporate all existing landscaping into landscape scheme. 4. Provide more imaginative use of shrubs through groupings adjacent to buildings and in open landscaped areas.

LOCATION East side of San Luis Rey Avenue at Juniper Circle ZONE PR-7 The applicants have submitted final landscaping and irrigation plans for the phase presently under construction at the northeast corner of San Luis Rey and Juniper Circle. They have also submitted plans for the future phase at the southeast corner of San Luis Rey and Juniper. The landscaping plans, as submitted, lack detailed information on all plant types and are poorly designed. The use of trees and shrubs is not related to the site or buildings. Individual trees are primarily spotted throughout the site. Additionally, the existing trees on the site have not been indicated on the plans. There has been no clarification on shrubs which will be used, and shrubs are shown lined up around the buildings. Because of exposure to San Luis Rey Avenue, the landscaping should be well -designed and flow with the site. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Continue final landscaping plan approval, with the Design Review Board and Staff input incorporated, as follows: 1. Specify all plant types, sizes and locations. 2. Use groups of trees in landscaped areas. 3. Show and incorporate all existing landscaping into landscape scheme. 4.
