A. RECOMMENDATION:
Deny the appeal and affirm the action of the Planning Commission.
B. BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to direction by Planning Commission and the City Council, Mr. Muro has
actively pursued a replacement location for his existing athletic club operating at
Highway 1 1 1 and Portola under a conditional use permit which expired October 1 ,
1996, but has been extended by the City Council.
STAFF REPORT
CUP 97-10
AUGUST 28, 1997
The present request is to locate a 22,000 square foot full service health club in the
west end of a vacant 29,000 square foot industrial building on the north side of
Lennon Place east of Corporate Way.
The Planning Commission considered this request at its meetings of July 1 5, 1997
and August 5, 1997.
At the July 15, 1997 meeting several area business owners and property owners
expressed concern with the proposed use and the impacts it could have on the area.
Between the two meetings Mr. Muro worked to resolve the issues raised at the July
15, 1997 meeting.
The principal concerns involve potential use of adjacent parking lots by the athletic
club members, blocking of fire lanes and insurance liability.
Mr. Muro agreed to provide a parking/security attendant to insure that athletic club
members will park in designated spaces and away from Mr. Lupo's lot and fire lanes.
In addition, Mr. Muro's insurance company has agreed to provide Mr. Lupo with a
$1 ,000,000.00 Certificate of Insurance naming him as additional insured in the event
an athletic club member files suit due to injury on his property. This assumes Mr.
Lupo has his own primary liability insurance.
Mr. Muro revised his parking layout in front of the building adding 13 parking spaces
for a total of 80 on-site. The easterly 7,000 square feet of vacant space originally
mentioned as a potential children's gym will instead be used by the owner for indoor
storage of RV's and classic cars. Ten parking spaces would be made available in this
area for staff and club members bringing the onsite total to 90. With the 68 onstreet
spaces immediately adjacent to the site, the health club would have parking for 158
cars.
Mr. Muro has submitted a club attendance analysis based on triple his present club
membership which indicates peak demand (5:30 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. -
9:00 p.m.) to be 96 members. Even is all 96 members were simultaneously present
and requiring a parking place, the available supply would be adequate. Mr. Muro's
analysis is consistent with staff's analysis of peak capacity of each of the club
activity areas which indicated a maximum demand of 115 spaces.
At the August 5, 1997 meeting area business and property owners continued to
oppose the application (see attached minutes) and presented photos to the

CUP 97-10
AUGUST 28, 1997
Commission showing existing fire lane violations in the area. They feel that this
existing problem would only be exacerbated by adding the gym facility to the area.
After considerable discussion the Planning Commission determined that there was
adequate parking available to meet the peak demands of the proposed athletic club.
The parking problems described by Mr. Lupo were created by his own tenants and
would not be impacted by the athletic club peak demand which will occur before
9:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m. Resolution No. 1820 was adopted approving the
application subject to conditions.
C. DISCUSSION:
This timely appeal was filed August 14, 1997. Reasons for appeal are listed as "Off-
street and on-street parking not adequate for amount of projected usage. The 2-2
vote at the July 15, 1997 meeting was a no vote".
The parking issue was discussed at length during the hearings and in the staff
reports. Planning Commission and staff concluded that there will be adequate
parking for the proposed use.
The initial 2-2 vote July 15, 1997 on a motion for approval was a failed motion.
Subsequently, the commission voted 3-1 (Commissioner Jonathan voting no) on a
second motion to continue the case to the next meeting.
At the August 5, 1997 meeting the commission voted 3-0 (with Commissioners
Jonathan and Fernandez absent) to approve the request subject to conditions.

„ yPl:VIII. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Continued Case No. CUP 97-10 - RICK MURO/DR. PETER G,
Applicants /04i
Request for approval of a conditional use permit for a 22,000 square
foot health club with future beer and wine license in part of the vacant
industrial building at 74-824 Lennon Place.
Mr. Drell indicated there was a revised plan distributed to commission which
varied slightly from what the staff report said. It added 12 or 13 parking spaces
for a total of 79 spaces. The applicant was also proposing ten spaces inside that
building which formerly was reported as a potential kids gym and the applicant
was now saying it wouldn't be a kids gym, it would be used for warehousing of
vehicles and for his parking. At the original public hearing considerable objection
was received by Mr. Lupo, the property owner to the west. The commission
received additional correspondence from him expressing concern about existing
problems he has with people parking in fire lanes and a potential liability problem
he envisioned with unauthorized athletic members parking on his property and
being injured and suing him. In addressing this issue Mr. Muro agreed to provide
a security guard/parking attendant to specifically direct his members to
designated parking spaces on the building's property or on the street. He would
make it as a matter of policy to instruct all the members where they should park
and his insurance company has agreed to provide Mr. Lupo with a $1 million
Certificate of Insurance naming him as an additional insurer in the event that an
athletic club member filed suit against Mr. Lupo due to injury on his property.
The insurance company would require that Mr. Lupo have primary insurance for
liability for his own property as well. Staff believed that those two concerns
could be met and that led them back to the fundamental question of if there was
enough parking onsite or in the street directly adjacent to the property which
provides for street parking for the proposed use. Mr. Drell indicated that Mr.
Muro provided a club attendance analysis where he assumed that his current
membership of approximately 700 members triples and distributing those
members along the same time schedule as they do now (between 5:00 a.m. and
10:00 a.m. and between 5:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.), based on that analysis he
would have a maximum member load during these peak periods of 96. Adding
to that the number of employees (seven or eight), which would total 103, which
was consistent with staff's analysis where they looked at each particular activity
room in the club and projected how many athletes could comfortably utilize that
room added to the number of employees, staff came up with 115 and felt that
the triple analysis was fairly consistent with staff's. Mr. Muro showed, in
combination with the onsite spaces and offsite spaces on the street, 157. At
this particular site offsite spaces were particularly plentiful because the whole
side across the street which was the Waste Management lot without curb cuts
and therefore had a fairly continuous availability of street spaces for which there
are no competing businesses that would have some rights of priority for those
spaces. With the additional spaces, Mr. Muro's offer to address the specific
6

PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
concerns of Mr. Lupo, and the conditioning of that offer relative to the conditions
of insurance and the security attendant, staff would recommend approval. He
also indicated there was one amendment to the conditions, number 13, which
would read that 79 parking spaces would be developed onsite outside the
proposed health club. He asked the applicant to clarify if those ten spaces would
be provided as a matter of condition inside the building and if that was the case,
it should be raised to at least 89 spaces being developed onsite to serve the
proposed health club. Mr. Drell also clarified that relative to the 7,000 square
feet, which would now be devoted to either parking or warehouse, any change
in that use other than a warehouse would have to come back as an amendment
to this conditional use permit.
Commissioner Campbell clarified that Mr. Muro has 90 spaces right now because
the number 49 was written down twice.
Chairperson Ferguson asked for confirmation that staff determined that Mr. Muro
needed 115 parking spaces. Of those he has 90 onsite; therefore, he needs 25
offsite and he has up to 137 if just the street immediately in front of his building
was counted and across the street from his building. Mr. Drell said that Mr.
Smith said there were 68 on street spaces immediately adjacent to this site on
both sides of the street (158). Chairperson Ferguson said that in going through
the minutes and listening to the tape there was some issue as to whether Mr.
Muro needed 150 or 115, but under either scenario it appeared that he had
sufficient parking. Mr. Drell concurred.
Chairperson Ferguson noted that the public hearing was still open and asked if
the applicant would address the commission first, then anyone in favor of this
application, then anyone opposed to this application, and then a brief rebuttal
period for the applicant before closing the public hearing.
MR. RICK MURO, 73-944 Olive Court in Palm Desert, stated that for the
past two years he has been working very diligently attempting to expand his
health club in Palm Desert. His goal has been to have the opportunity to
provide service to the local residents and the senior clientele in a facility that
they could be proud of. He said that he has negotiated on almost every
piece of land or building that would be suitable for his use over the two
years. Those included the 111 Town Center, the corner of Fred Waring and
Monterey which was turned down by the City Council, the vacant Circuit
City building which has some CC&Rs which prohibited their type of usage,
the property adjacent to Moller's Gardens at the end of Fred Waring, the
Desert Crossing center, the old Sprouse Ritz's building that has been empty
for about nine years, the property north of First Bank on Monterey Avenue,
both ends of El Paseo and Highway 1 1 1 , and now the proposed building on
Lennon. For one reason or another the other locations didn't work. He was
devoted to making this proposal the one that works for them. He said that
it meant the livelihood of his family and his employees' families. As Mr.
Drell pointed out, there were four basic issues brought up at the last
7

PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION

meeting: 1 ) parking. They have 90 spaces onsite and they were asking for
the ability to use the ones just in front of them which took them to just over
150 spaces which based on his scenario and analysis and the one done by
staff showed that they would far exceed what was necessary. They would
have a security/parking attendant that wouldn't allow anyone, whether it be
Mr. Lupo's people or his own people, to park in any undesignated area
including the fire lanes. In terms of Mr. Lupo's liability, as shown in the
commission's packet, Mr. Muro provided a letter from his insurance
company that says they would be happy to mitigate all of his liability by
provided an indemnity certificate. In terms of their beer and wine that was
an issue, the beer and wine license was nothing more than an amenity to
their facility for their members to use. It was not an open bar and they
would have a security guard there. In terms of Desert Heat being another
applicant to use that building that was no longer the case and they would
be using that space for additional parking. As he pointed out to
commission, Mr. Lupo and Mr. Eliante in their letters, he was sure they
could be congenial neighbors at that space and he was sure they would
realize that their presence was good for them now and in the future. He felt
they could peacefully coexist as neighbors as all the letters he provided to
commission from the other neighbors endorsed his program. He said he has
done whatever he could to this point and would continue to do what was
necessary to make this work. Therefore, he urged commission to approve
his project.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if Mr. Muro planned to make parking guidelines part
of the clientele's contract. Mr. Muro replied absolutely and whatever he could
do to make sure that it is laid out factually so that everyone was well aware of
what was important. He said that at Mr. Drell's and Mr. Smith's request, they
put in a rear entrance into the athletic club. Typically it was a difficult thing to
do to put in two separate entrances because they had to funnel the people to
one main desk where they could check in. They put in a separate large entrance
to the back which would be covered to allow people to come in from that back
entrance to encourage people to park back there.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if anyone wished to speak in FAVOR of the
proposal.
MR. ROBERT HESS, 48-260 Center Court in Palm Desert, stated that he
was the owner of the building where the proposed health club would be
located. His building as been vacant for more than one year. Not being in
an enterprise zone or having financial incentives from the state or local
government made if very difficult to lease a building of this size. He said he
needed the commission's approval of this application. He indicated that Mr.
Muro has worked very closely with the neighborhood businesses and has
more than adequately addressed their concerns and had garnered a lot of
support. He said he was aware that Mr. Lupo has opposed this use and
noted that Mr. Lupo previously made two wholesale offers on Mr. Hess's
8

PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
building in an attempt to purchase it as a vacant building. He wanted to
stress how important an economic impact the commission's approval would
be and urged approval. He said he would continue to work with Mr. Muro,
whom he felt presented himself as a very astute businessman and
professional in his own right. He appreciated that in a prospective tenant
since he wouldn't rent to just anyone, he wanted someone that would be
there permanent and Mr. Muro was willing to sign a ten-year lease. He said
he was willing to lease this building to Mr. Muro for ten years and he
thought that working together, especially with the ten off street parking
stalls next door, he had two buses in there, two motor homes, two
overnight cars that go out during the day, one cougar and one suburban.
There would be space for Mr. Muro.
Commissioner Beaty asked if this were to be approved as a conditional use
permit, what would happen if they found out in two years that this just didn't
work and the commission had to rescind the conditional use permit. He asked
what would happen to the ten-year lease.
Mr. Hess replied that was a legal question and he probably shouldn't
address it. If in the opinion of City Council, not so much the neighbors,
because right now the neighbors were using his parking lot and they were
blocking the fire lanes. Mr. Muro felt that with that coverage and outside
help that wouldn't happen. He said he couldn't be there all the time to
knock on Mr. Lupo's doors to ask them to move their rigs when they are in
the fire lanes. He thought it would really benefit access to emergency
vehicles. He said he wished he could answer Commissioner Beaty's
question directly.
Chairperson Ferguson said that Mr. Hess could lease his property to Mr. Muro,
but the commission would regulate the use that he conducts on it and he
thought that the two would be independent and anything else they came up with
to the contrary would be between Mr. Hess and Muro and was not sure the City
was bound by their lease agreement. Ms. Dryer, from the City Attorney's office,
concurred. Mr. Drell said that they would try to solve any problems long before
the City revoked the CUP.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if anyone wished to speak in OPPOSITION to the
application.
MR. RAY ELIANTE, 74-794 Lennon Place, stated that he occupies the
building next to the proposed CUP. His business was Country Club Mirror
and Glass. He felt that Mr. Hess made an astounding point. Mr. Hess said
that tenants were blocking fire lanes and were presently using his spaces.
Mr. Eliante said that they used his space in the past just prior to his
repaving. They have not done so since because Mr. Hess asked them to
pay him rent for the use of those spaces, so they were taking up spaces in
the street. There were other tenants using his spaces, however, there
9

PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION

were businesses on either side of him that were blocking the fire lanes. He
hoped the commission had seen the photographs he submitted and
reminded the commission that those pictures were taken off-season and this
was probably the two worst months in terms of usage. The most usage
was nine or ten months out of the year. It was a constant hassle. Mr.
Hess also mentioned that he was using his building for rental space. He
approached Mr. Eliante numerous times in the past, and as recently as a
month ago, to rent his space. Mr. Hess said that if Mr. Eliante would take
his space, he would vacate those vehicles immediately and make that
available to him. His question was, if they were hard pressed and not
meeting the demand now for parking, for the 8,000 square feet, where
were those people going to park. By Mr. Hess's own admission, those fire
lanes were being blocked now and they could not operate their business as
it is now. In addition to that, he said that Mr. Lino, who has been Mr.
Eliante's neighbor for some time, it was not fair that they had to elevate
their voices and go after each other when they have a problem with the City
enforcing the fire lanes and enforcing the parking and they have come to
terms in that they know they have a problem and they deal with it on a
regular basis. Mr. Eliante said he trusted that the commission had read his
letter and asked that commission please consider the existing parking
problem and not whitewash this. He knew that Mr. Muro had really tried
to relocate his business, but this was not the place for it. It would not work
in two months and has not worked for them. This was the off-season and
it would become very congested and nothing had been made for this
additional 8,000 square feet and it would be a problem. He asked that
commission do the hard thing, but the right thing.
Chairperson Ferguson noted that he has pictures before him that all showed
encroachments into the fire lane and since the building is vacant, he assumed
this was because of Mr. Eliante or Mr. Lupo. Chairperson Ferguson asked whose
fire lane that was.
Mr. Eliante replied the pictures were of the fire lane at his location and Mr.
Lupo's building. Picture numbers 5 and 6 were the location at the east end
which were Mr. Hess's and the other building leased to him.
Chairperson Ferguson noted that in picture number 6 there were two vans and
asked for clarification as to which was Mr. Hess's.
Mr. Eliante indicated that the building to the left was Mr. Hess's.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if that was Mr. Hess's van.
Mr. Eliante said no, it belonged to the gentlemen working there with the
business to the east of Mr. Hess's building.
10

PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
Chairperson Ferguson noted that Mr. Hess wasn't in violation, it was the people
next to him.
Mr. Eliante said that was correct and felt the photograph didn't depict how
narrow the opening was and indicated that a vehicle wouldn't even fit
through there. He said those gentlemen, because they have limited space,
often use that alley as an extended shop; they paint there, build things
there, etc.
Chairperson Ferguson asked why the City shouldn't allow Mr. Muro to develop
because other people wanted to use his driveway as an extended shop.
Mr. Eliante felt that was a good point, but the problem was that there
wasn't adequate parking for Mr. Muro and there wasn't enough for the
tenants around him who were using the fire lane for parking spaces now.
Chairperson Ferguson said he read the minutes from the last meeting and looked
at the site plan and Mr. Muro has 90 spaces onsite and 67 on the street for a
total of 157 spaces. He asked how Mr. Eliante could say that Mr. Muro didn't
have adequate parking.
Mr. Eliante questioned the street parking because his employees used up a
good portion of that because they encroached well beyond the street area
where Mr. Hess's building is.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if Mr. Eliante had 36 employees and 8 parking
spaces.
Mr. Eliante agreed that he has 36 employees and they have four tenants in
their building. They leave two vacant parking spaces for customers.
Chairperson Ferguson noted that Mr. Eliante wanted the street parking, but didn't
want Mr. Muro to have any street parking.
Mr. Eliante felt it was a difference in the amount of clientele that they have
versus what Mr. Muro has. They have 36-37 employees and two
customers every four hours. They don't have that flux of customers coming
in and Mr. Muro had a constant flow of cars coming and going.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if Mr. Eliante reviewed the submittal by Mr. Muro
on when his customers would be using the facility and the volumes.
Mr. Eliante said he had.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if disagreed with that information.
11
MINUTES
PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
Mr. Eliante said he disagreed with that, knowing that they were in the
desert and people come and go. He understood that most were in morning
and in the afternoon.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if Mr. Eliante disagreed with staff's onsite
observations of Gold's Gym and other analyses which indicated that most of the
operation would occur when Mr. Eliante was not open for business.
Mr. Eliante said he has been to Gold's Gym and has seen the parking
problems they have there and with due respect, he felt it was a problem and
needed to be addressed a little closer.
MR. PAUL LUPO, 79-355 Camino Amarillo in La Quinta, stated that he
owns the building at 74-794 Lennon Place and 41-700 Corporate Way. He
noted that the commission had his letters and knew his position, but he
wanted to recap. He felt the main issue was parking. He didn't agree with
the numbers and felt there was an overwhelming, excessive amount of
demand on that corner which was unnecessary. He thought the problems
would get worse with the growth of the gym and assumed Mr. Muro's gym
would continue to grow and would need more parking in the future.
Regarding the insurance issue, he asked what guarantee he had, what
guarantee the City could give him, and what guarantee Mr. Muro could give
him that he would pay the insurance premiums. When there is nonpayment
of insurance premiums that meant they had noncoverage. When they had
noncoverage, they had problems. He said there were no assurances or
guarantees, none on that issue. His insurance carrier continued to inform
him that it was a problem and would be a continuing problem and if it
became a frequency problem, there would be non-renewal. He had no
control and no guarantees on Mr. Muro paying the premiums. That was a
big issue. He said if there was parking in those fire lanes and those fire
trucks couldn't get to his building and it was burning down because of Mr.
Muro's trucks or cars or his usage and his parking attendant who called in
sick that daywas runningaround that whole corner trying to regulate all
Y 9 9
these parking needs. He felt they should face reality and asked what reality
was. As Mr. Eliante said, he has a simple need and Mr. Lupo said that most
of his tenants all had minimal needs. This was a massive, extensive need
of parking in an industrial park and this use had no place there. This was
not the place for it. He said they should ask themselves if their building
was suitable, 29,000 square feet, for 115 parking spaces, why did they
need all of these safeguards. Why did they need parking attendants, why
did they need additional liability insurance coverage? He felt it was like
going into a bank and asking why there was a guard there to protect the
money. He didn't think there could be proper enforcement by anyone or
any guarantees by anyone and he was adamant about this and opposed this
as his tenants do and thanked the commission for listening.

Commissioner Campbell asked Mr. Lupo why his tenants were in violation of
parking in the fire lanes if they have adequate parking or adequate space in his
building for their business. She asked him if he should be controlling his own
tenants.
Mr. Lupo said he has gone to his tenants and explained to them the law.
He has posted signs and they were human beings and they have clients that
were human beings and asked what controls he had. He asked if he should
call the Fire Marshal on his own tenants and if it was his responsibility to
enforce that. He didn't know.
Chairperson Ferguson noted that it was his building that would burn down.
Mr. Lupo said he understood that and felt this was a good example. Unless
he was there 24 hours a day running around like the parking attendant
would be doing, it wasn't feasible and wasn't reality and wouldn't happen.
Certain things couldn't be controlled and that was one of the things. He
admitted that he hasn't been able to control that, even when he has told
them that this was the law and that they were breaking the law.
Commissioner Campbell indicated that Mr. Muro would have a parking attendant
to control this and it would save Mr. Lupo's building also if there was a fire.
Mr. Lupo asked if that was reality--a parking attendant.
Commissioner Campbell felt that would be a better situation than the pictures
showed right now.
Mr. Lupo stated that he didn't accept that that was reality. He didn't think
one parking attendant was going to be able to control an influx of 150 cars.
He asked what kind of confrontations they would have and didn't agree
with it and didn't feel it was reality.
Chairperson Ferguson said that in fairness, and noted that he and Mr. Lupo knew
each other and hoped Mr. Lupo would realize his comment was in fairness, that
it was almost impossible for Mr. Lupo to insist that Mr. Muro get additional
insurance, get a parking monitor, then beat him over the head with it when Mr.
Lupo asked for those safeguards. Mr. Muro's first proposal didn't have either
one of those things and he understood that he included those as concessions to
Mr. Lupo and for his benefit. He felt it was a little disingenuous to accuse him
of not being able to handle this problem when he has bent over backwards to
accommodate Mr. Lupo's concerns.
Mr. Lupo said he stated his concerns, he didn't think there was a resolution
and didn't accept Mr. Muro's resolutions. He didn't think they were
adequately reasonable or realistic. He asked how it would be controlled,
how it would be monitored, how it would be enforced and how he could
13
MINUTES
PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
control Mr. Muro's finances and payment of a premium. He could ask for
it and demand it, but how would he ever get that assurance. He said it only
took one issue, one incident and one time for this to be a massive incident
and a problem as they all know in life what can happen.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if that wasn't true of any development, anywhere.
He asked if Mr. Muro had a path across Mr. Lupo's property.
Mr. Lupo felt that if there was a lesser use of that 29,000 square feet,
there would be less exposure and less of a problem, in his opinion.
Chairperson Ferguson clarified that Mr. Lupo wasn't willing to accept Mr. Muro's
covenant that he would do it and wouldn't accept a condition in the CUP that
says he has to do it, he just didn't trust Mr. Muro under any circumstances.
Mr. Lupo said it wasn't about trust, it was about control. He had no control
or assurances on Mr. Muro's finances and his ability to pay his premiums.
Chairperson Ferguson asked what assurances Mr. Muro had that Mr. Lupo's
tenants' vans that are blocking Mr. Muro's fire lane wouldn't impede a fire truck
trying to put out a fire at his building. As he saw it, it was kind of a mutual
trust.
Mr. Lupo said that he felt it was because of the exposure factor. Mr. Muro
had a larger need that was harder to control because of that exposure
versus a minimal exposure that they have. Even though he has tried on
those fire lanes, and maybe that was something that Mr. Eliante took
pictures of that and might only happen once a year, this was a possibility
of happening all the time. He felt that was the issue here. The exposure
and the overwhelming parking.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if Mr. Lupo would be happy if the commission added
a condition that required the Fire Marshal to go out and inspect both alleyways
to insure that the fire lanes are properly stenciled, property signed and then have
their enforcement personnel come by and monitor it to make sure no one is
parking in them, including Mr. Lupo's tenants.
Mr. Lupo said that there have been calls made to the Fire Marshal
concerning this and he has never even showed up, not once. On a few
occasions there have been calls made to the Fire Marshal. Again, he asked
what assurances there were that the Fire Marshal would show up on a
continuing basis and monitor this thing. If Mr. Muro had a need of 25 or 50
cars, in his opinion it would be different. That was his concern. That
would be more manageable and more controllable by Mr. Muro or his
attendant or the Fire Marshal, but when they talking about 150 vehicles and
on street parking and off street parking and one attendant running around,
he just couldn't see the realism in it.

MINUTES
PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
Chairperson Ferguson said that in terms of enforcement, under a CUP the
Planning Commission retained continuing jurisdiction to make sure Mr. Muro was
in compliance. On its surface Chairperson Ferguson felt it appeared to him that
Mr. Muro should be given an opportunity to try and operate. If the commission
approved this use and in a month from now there were ongoing violations, Mr.
Lupo could certainly notify him and the Planning Commission and noted that on
the commission's agenda tonight there was an item to discuss the Southwest
Community Church's CUP which was approved in April and the commission
received a letter from an adjoining neighbor who says there are violations and the
commission would be discussing whether to hold a hearing to revoke their CUP.
It was not like Mr. Lupo would be stuck with the situation for ten years and
could give his word that there would be ongoing enforcement from the Planning
Commission if there are violations of the CUP.
Mr. Lupo said that was on the parking issue, but not on the liability
insurance.
Chairperson Ferguson said that was on every issue of Mr. Muro's CUP.
Mr. Lupo asked what assurances he had that the premiums would be paid.
Chairperson Ferguson said that if the premium is not paid, Mr. Lupo should bring
that to the attention of the Planning Commission because Mr. Muro would be in
violation of his CUP. Mr. Drell said that was a condition of the CUP and they
would require Mr. Muro to show proof that the insurance is paid. Commissioner
Beaty noted that he is required to do that for his customers. He said that Mr.
Lupo could have it as a condition of the Certificate of Insurance that Mr. Lupo
must be notified if there is a nonpayment of premium from the insurance
company.
Mr. Lupo asked what would happen in a bankruptcy situation.
Chairperson Ferguson said that they couldn't plan for every contingency, only
reasonable contingencies and it seemed to him that the policy was a reasonable
safeguard for Mr. Lupo's interests.
Mr. Lupo asked if in an insolvency situation and the premium wasn't paid,
he would be notified that Mr. Muro wasn't covering him adequately and that
same day there was an incident, there would be no coverage.
Chairperson Ferguson noted that lightening could strike Mr. Muro on the same
day there was an incident.
Mr. Lupo didn't think that was the same thing.
Chairperson Ferguson said that they could only do so much to give Mr. Lupo
reasonable assurance that the enjoyment of his property was protected to the
15
MINUTES
PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
same extent that Mr. Muro's right and Mr. Hess's rights to their property were
protected.
MR. DUKIC, owner of Lino's Mercedes Service in Palm Desert, said that
there was a problem on the corner by Mr. Lupo because of the lack of
parking and he felt there wasn't enough room on the street for parking. He
and his tenant also parked on the street and he felt that there wasn't
enough parking available.
Commissioner Beaty noted that Mr. Eliante indicated that he has notified the
local fire department and the Fire Marshal, the police department and the City's
code enforcement and two warnings had been issued in seven years. He asked
if staff had checked to see if that was true, what happened with those warnings,
and who issued those warnings and asked if they had control over violations.
Mr. Drell stated that in this situation there is a property owner who controls
neither his own tenants, employees nor customers and he seemed unwilling to
control his own people who are violating this fire lane. Staff could find out what
the policy is of the Fire Marshal on private property when they receive these
complaints. Commissioner Beaty said he would like some clarification from Mr.
Eliante of his statement. He said Mr. Eliante who issued the warnings and what
the outcome was, and if Mr. Eliante called and reported the violations.
Mr. Eliante said he called the city and asked for code enforcement. They
referred him to the Fire Marshal who in turn referred him to a Fire Marshal
master. In addition to that he called the Sheriff's Department and even
flagged down a Sheriff down one day and that was when the two warnings
came in. That was because he physically got a Sheriff who issued a
warning that time, but said that next time the violators would be ticketed
and nothing has transpired.
Mr. Drell asked who the violators were.
Mr. Eliante replied that it was numerous building occupants.
Mr. Drell asked if they were occupants of Mr. Eliante's own building.
Mr. Eliante said it was his own building, the building he occupies, and the
adjacent building. He said he was not as concerned about the building at
the east end because he wasn't there, but the violations were as great if
not greater there. They have tried to enforce it and a lot of it was
employees and a lot were customers because customers didn't have
parking, so the customers would use the fire lanes and he asked how they
could get after customers for using the fire lanes when they didn't have
parking for them. That made it very difficult. He said that Mr. Lupo has
tried very diligently to keep the fire lanes clear, but he didn't get any
support with any bite. It was like having CC&Rs and a Board of Directors
that say something can't be done, but there were no teeth in the CC&Rs
16
MINUTES
PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
that controlled the situation. Mr. Lupo has tried very hard to control the
situation in the fire lanes. Mr. Lupo has held he and Mr. Lino apart at
different times to keep them from fighting over the situation. He has
worked hard at it but they didn't have the support from the city and that
was why he was here. He asked what guarantee he would have to enforce
this issue now with 150 less users.
Commissioner Beaty thanked Mr. Eliante.
Chairperson Ferguson asked if anyone else wished to address the commission.
Mr. Hess readdressed the commission and said that it seemed to him after
listening to the testimony that the biggest parking problem has been in
existence for years and was between Mr. Lupo's two building that were
built too close together. He suggested that their uses were too high and
they were allowing too many cars and employees without sufficient off
street parking. He thought they would like his building to remain empty and
for him to go away so that they could use his 300+ feet of parking, but
that wasn't going to happen unless two years from now he still didn't have
a tenant and then the bank would own it and someone else would get it.
If Mr. Lupo felt there was a liabilityproblem there, then maybe Mr. Hess
P
should get a policy from Mr. Lupo to protect him. Mr. Hess stated that he
believed that space between Mr. Lupo's east wall and Mr. Hess's west wall,
which was actually the fire lane, if it was striped and signed he didn't think
people would park there. If someone saw a parking area and didn't know
whether they could park there or not and it said that vehicles parked there
would be towed away by Roy's Towing at the violator's expense, people
wouldn't park there; or at least he himself wouldn't.
Chairperson Ferguson closed the public hearing and asked for commission
comments.
Commissioner Campbell noted that since the last meeting Mr. Muro has tried to
satisfy everyone's needs on both sides of his building, and with the extra parking
on the premises that increased the available onsite parking area to 90 spaces,
in addition to the peak demand being in the early morning until 9:00 a.m. and
from 5:30 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. in the evenings when most other businesses at
least in the evening hours would be closed and since there was no competing
development across the street from the existing building, she felt there would be
ample parking available. She commented that it seemed that the other tenants
didn't have adequate parking for the businesses they were running. She said
that she was in favor of Mr. Muro's project.
Commissioner Beaty said he agreed with Commissioner Campbell. He stated that
he would like to accept Chairperson Ferguson's suggestions that the Fire Marshal
mark the lanes and encourage enforcement of the fire lane violations and that
would require some diligence on the commission's part and city staff's, but it
17

PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION
AUGUST 5, 1997
was important that code was enforced. As far as the insurance question raised
by Mr. Lupo, he had to deal with that all the time and thought it cost an extra
$10 dollars to have someone listed as an additional insured and with the
stipulation that Mr. Lupo would be notified if that payment was not made.
According to a letter from the Sports and Fitness Insurance Corporation it was
$52 per year, so it might be $62 for him to receive that notification and didn't
seem to be an issue. Commissioner Beaty said he would also be in favor of
approval.
Chairperson Ferguson stated that he was not at the meeting when this first came
up, but the law allowed that if he listened to the tape of the meeting and
reviewed the minutes, which he has done, he was able to participate in the
decision making which he intended to do. Also, two members of the Planning
Commission were absent tonight and the rules provided that a majority of the
quorum could vote on an issue, which meant that two out of three votes would
pass this issue tonight, or any other matter before the commission tonight. In
reading the minutes from last week he noted Commissioner Jonathan's
comments about how code requirements varied from staff's observation and he
pointed out that he himself placed more weight on staff's observation. He noted
that he sits on the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Review Committee and
many times they were throwing darts at a dart board guessing what would be
most appropriate and when there were existing uses that could be observed like
Mr. Muro's and a number of other health clubs, he tended to put more weight on
those. He said that what he sensed what they had here was a situation where
Mr. Muro's project ought to work and they had two adjacent property owners
who were telling the commission that it didn't work because people weren't
following the law and the City wasn't enforcing the law. Given that option, his
choice was not to deprive a private property owner of his right, but to go out and
force people to follow the law and give them the support which they just asked
for from the city. There was an old saying to be careful what you ask for
because you just might get it and with respect to enforcement of fire lane
violations that was exactly what they would be getting. He didn't believe that
these fire lanes were properly stenciled and there was a condition of approval
that requires compliance with all Fire Marshal and fire authority regulations and
they would get someone out there to take a look at it. They would receive the
enforcement that they were seeking for violators parking in the fire lanes, but
there was nothing about Mr. Muro's application that he could see that was
irregular, with the exception of utilizing street parking and he didn't know where
they came up with the idea that cars couldn't be parked in the street, particularly
in a Service Industrial zone, and particularly when it was before and after hours
of major intensity use for Mr. Muro when it wouldn't interfere with adjoining
property owners. Waste Management had the entire block on the north side and
there was a solid chain link fence along there and there would be no one else
parking along there except for Mr. Muro and his two neighbors and Chairperson
Ferguson said he was confident that they could get along. If they couldn't, the
Planning Commission retained continuing jurisdiction to make sure that Mr. Muro
complies with the conditions of his approval. He also was in favor of the
18

application, he wanted to see the law enforced and for them to receive the
support from the City that they wanted, and he didn't want to deprive Mr. Hess
or Mr. Muro of their opportunity to operate what he felt would be a socially
beneficial enterprise to the citizens of Palm Desert. He asked for a motion.
Action:
It was moved by Commissioner Campbell, and seconded by Commissioner Beaty
(with an encouragement to Mr. Muro that he uphold his conditions of approval
and encouraging the neighbors to try and get along), approving the findings as
presented by staff. Carried 3-0.

Request for approval of a Precise Plan of Design for a 12,500 square
foot, single story professional office/medical building, Development
Agreement permitting up to 2,000 square feet of limited general
commercial uses and parking reduction, and Setback Variance for said
building on the north side of Fred Waring Drive between Monterey
Avenue and Acacia Drive.
Mr. Drell noted that plans were on display. He explained that Mr. Homme was
the lessee of this property and was attempting to come up with a formula of
design, land use and economics to make it viable for him to develop this
property. Staff believed that Mr. Homme succeeded in coming up with a very
attractive, compatible architectural design and site plan. Mr. Drell noted that the
proposal was for a distinctive single story building for this very important corner.
He explained that commission was provided an economic analysis which gave
some insight on Mr. Homme's request which included, in addition to the 12,500
square feet of building, 2,000 square feet of retail space of which potentially
could all be a restaurant. Part of Mr. Homme's request dealt with hours of
operation and Mr. Drell noted that a successful retail store would need something
other than the minimum hours that an office use would require and would
probably extend somewhat before and after a normal office use. Currently retail
and restaurants were not permitted uses or conditional uses in the Office
Professional zone. More significantly, potentially a 2,000 square foot restaurant
would generate a 12-space parking deficiency on this property. Unlike the
previous case, there was not an abundance of street parking available to handle
any overflow if it were to occur without it spreading out into the residential area.
Staff felt that was still a major concern. While there might be opportunities to
address that, the most obvious way was to make the building smaller or not
allow the commercial use. The property was adequately parked for a

STAFF REPORT
CUP 97-10
JULY 15, 1997
The proposal is to create a double loaded, one way driveway at the rear
providing access to 39 parking spaces. There is a proposed new building
entrance midway in the rear of the building.
At the front another one-way driveway exists and provides access to 27
parking spaces (presently 21 spaces exist). The additional 6 parking spaces
would be located in the existing landscape planter opposite the front entry.
B. REQUIRED PARKING:
The code requires one parking space for every 150 square feet of gross floor
area for health studios (a total of 147 parking spaces).
The applicant has provided an alternative parking analysis based on the
maximum utilization of each activity area within the club (see attached Table
1 ). We have reviewed the analysis and feel that a lesser parking standard of
115 spaces can be justified at peak operating hours.
Gold's Gym operates in an industrial zone with a similar amount of onsite
parking. Staff experience at Gold's during the day is that one can easily park
on site or on the street. From 5:00 p.m. through the early evening hours,
weekdays, parking is very tight. Since the city annexed this area we have not
had a complaint from adjacent tenants. We did receive a complaint from a
Gold's member who complained of having difficulty finding a parking space at
5:30 p.m.
Commission may recall that when the city reviewed the gym request at
Monterey and Fred Waring we obtained data from another gym facility which
confirmed that the early morning and after 5:00 p.m. are the peak hours at a
gym. Between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. the gym has a very low occupancy.
The plan as submitted provides for 67 on site parking spaces.
The street adjacent to this property is 54 feet wide curb to curb and is
designed to accommodate parking on each side. Staff has determined that
street parking for 68 cars is available within 350 feet of the site.
Staff have observed the street several times and can confirm that in the
evening it is available for parking purposes. During day time hours the on site
parking spaces should be more than ample to serve the facility.

STAFF REPORT
CUP 97-10
JULY 15, 1997
In Mr. Muro's previous application at Fred Waring and Monterey any overflow
parking had only one place to go, into the adjacent residential community. In
this application any overflow parking will extend further down the street. Peak
level of use of this facility will be in the early evening hours when adjacent
businesses are closed. In fact, most of existing nearby uses are closed by
5:00 p.m. and are not open on weekends. We observed the area at 8:45 a.m.
on Tuesday, July 1 , 1997. The west end of the street had parked vehicles on
both sides. The area to the east had less dense street parking. We observed
the area at 5:15 p.m. on Tuesday, July 1 , 1997. There were two cars parked
on the street.
The applicant has indicated a willingness to approach adjacent property
owners to obtain permission to park on those sites when those businesses are
closed if additional off street parking is deemed necessary.
III. CONCLUSION:
Commission will recall that when a similar health club proposal was presented for
property at the corner of Monterey and Fred Waring Drive in 1996 there was a
laundry list of concerns (i.e., hours of operation, by-pass traffic, overflow parking in
a residential zone and noise impacts on the residential community). The current
location does not have any of these concerns.
Two letters of objection have been received (copies attached). The letters expressed
concern with the parking and the proposed beer and wine license.
The beer and wine license would only permit service to health club members (i.e.,
persons who are already at the club).
The parking could be a major issue except that the peak use of the health club occurs
when most, if not all, of the other businesses are closed. Staff feels comfortable that
during the day - between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. - the health club will not
negatively impact on parking in the area. For these reasons staff will recommend
approval of CUP 97-10 subject to conditions.
We also need to remember that we will be reviewing a proposal for a children's
gymnastics facility in the east 7000 square feet of this building. The two uses will
overlap to a certain degree but most of the children will be dropped off and picked
up 90 minutes later. We have been advised that the parents are not encouraged to
stay and observe the classes.

STAFF REPORT
CUP 97-10
JULY 15, 1997
The property should be of sufficient size to support both uses.
A. FINDINGS REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT:
1 . That the proposed location of the conditional use is in accord with the
objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in
which it is located.
• The property is zoned S.I. (Service Industrial) which while the code does
not specifically permit a health club use it does fall within the range of
uses existing in the area (i.e., post office, light industrial, restaurant,
churches and general offices). Municipal Code Section 25.34.020 L
permits the Planning Commission to "permit other uses which are
similar and no more objectionable than those enumerated in this
section". The use is in accord with the ordinance objectives.
2. That the proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions
under which it will be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to
the public health, safety, or welfare, or be materially injurious to
properties or improvements in the vicinity.
• The proposed health club as conditioned will be compatible with the
surrounding uses and existing zoning.
3. That the proposed conditional use will comply with each of the
applicable provisions of the zoning ordinance, except for approved
variances or adjustments.
• On site parking will fall short of the code requirement. The health club
facility's peak hours will be from 5:00 p.m. until later in the evenings
weekdays. Existing nearby businesses are all closed by 5:30 p.m. and
most are closed at 5:00 p.m. The parking provided on site and available
on the street will be adequate to serve the health club use. By the
conditional use permit approval the Planning Commission can approve
the parking modification.
4. That the proposed conditional use complies with the goal's, objectives
and the policies of the city's general plan.
5
STAFF REPORT
CUP 97-10
JULY 15, 1997
• The zoning is consistent with the land use designation. By approval of
this CUP request the use will comply with the zoning requirements. As
a result the facility, if the CUP is approved, will be consistent with the
general plan objectives and policies.
B. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Director of Community Development has determined that the project will
not have a significant effect on the environment and has been classified a
Class 5 categorical exemption for purposes of CEQA.
IV. RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning Commission adopt Planning Commission Resolution No.
approving CUP 97-10, subject to conditions.

The applicant, in a letter dated July 7, 1997 advises that he has a unique program
for spreading out usage of the facility. Seniors may purchase a membership which
limits usage to 12:00 noon until 4:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday. This
membership tends to reduce the morning and evening peak usage.

conditional Use Permit Application
City of Palm Desert
June 24, 1997
Property Location: 74-824 Lennon Place
Owner: Robert Hess
Applicant: Rick Muro, Dr. Peter Greenberg DBA Pinnacle Athletic Club
This application is to allow the use of a 22,000 sq. ft. health club in the vacant industrial building on
Lennon Ave.
The applicants have been in business as the Fitness Mart on El Paseo, Palm Desert for the 10 years and
temporarily located on Hwy. 1 1 1 for the past 16 months. Originally, as an aerobic studio and growing to
a full health club facility. Previously approved by the Planning Commission at Fred Waring and Monterey
Ave. and later over turned by City Council we have continued our search to secure a financially feasible -
Zoning and Ordinance friendly location. We feel that this location meets all the needed criteria.
Our objective by relocating at this site is to better provide the necessary services to our growing
community. The Pinnacle Athletic Club will fill a void in the Health and Fitness Industry truly lacking in
the Coachella Valley; that being a truly upscale athletic club for the fitness and sport enthusiast of all
ages. The demographics of the desert include a large retirement and semi-retired population plus a
growing family population. Fortunately, the other "Gyms" in the valley and specifically Palm Desert tend
to cater to the male body builder. This type of club is very monolithic in approach and often intimidating,
thus segmenting their market. Because we will be a true full service club, we will capture
9 9ptu e a much
broader market, therefore capitalizing on not only the senior, but also the family and baby boomer
clientele.
In respect to families, the typical gym does not offer much. Our plans include a full children's play area
with arcade, similar to those seen in most fast food chains, and programs that range from Rock Climbing
to Racquetball. This will give us an opportunity to capture families who otherwise never would make the
time or have the chance to add fitness to their lifestyle.
We are sure to be a major asset to the community both financially and socially in Palm Desert. The
following are a list of amenities provided:
Team and Individual Recreation:
• 3 Championship Racquetball Courts
• Rock Climbing Wall
• Walleyball
• • Lap Pool/Water Aerobics
• Running Track
Fitness Facilities:
• Aerobics Center with Aerobic and Exercise Classes/Aqua Aerobics
• Treadmills - Recumbent Cycles - Stairclimbers
• Individual Isolation Resistance Equipment •
• Advanced Training Center - Freeweights - Accessories
• Plate Loaded Equipment
• Private Training
• Weight Management, Body Composition Analysis
• Locker Facilities Including:
Private and Daily Use Lockers, Showers, Vanity, Sauna/Steam,
Jacuzzi, Massage, Lounge
Social and other Amenities:
• Physical Therapy
• Lobby Lounge
• Pro Shop
• Coffee/Juice/Yogurt Bar
• Salon - Hair/Nails/Facials

Re: Legal Notice - Case NO. CUP97-10
Dear Planning Commission,
In response to your notice CUP 97-10 I am apposed to the use permit for 74-824
Lennon Place to become a "Health Club". Primarily due to the amount of traffic
that will be generated from this type of business and would result in a terrible
parking problem in an already parking starved area. My business is located just
West of the proposed health club at 74-794 Lennon Place. The building I occupy is
shoved with three other companies. We have eight parking stalls and one Handicap
stall. Between the four of use we use four spaces leaving one for Handicap and
four for patrons. The combined work force is approximately thirty six people which
must park in the street taking up space from Corporate to half way down Lennon Pl.
Where are the people going to park? Along with the health club it is my
understanding that "Desert Heat" a Gymnastic Company is also schedule to move in.
Both of these type of businesses are a 1 - 2 hour use per patron all day long
which creates a compounded problem compared to a 8-5 parking situation.
I also would like to address the use of beer and wine in a industrial area with
professional businesses is of great concern. We do not have the exposure as a
strip center and or police protection that other areas would. It has also been
brought to my attention that the new owners are requesting the use of my parking
stalls after 5:00 P.M. . That request alone should raise a red flag that parking is
and will be a problem. Often times we are here from early in the morning (5:00
A.M. ) until seven or eight in the evening. But even if we were not, for numerous
liability reasons I would never allow the use of my stalls for their transient
type of business.
Thank you for your time in reviewing this information and any consideration you
are able to give to help ease the parking shortage in this business complex.

Dear Steve,
As per our conversation Thursday July 3rd, I am writing you to further detail the member flow for our Athletic
Club.
Approximately three years ago we along with the help of Joselyn Senior Center's Mary Kukala began to
provide low cost memberships and special programming for our large senior community. The unique aspect of
this program is that we are able to provide this type of program at minimum cost because of the hours of usage.
Seniors are able to enroll and use the facility Monday- Saturday from 12:00 noon until 4:00 p.m. at a fraction of
the normal cost. We did this for two reasons; one, during these hours the club is very under utilized,therefore it
allows us to decrease demand at other peak hours such as early morning or early evening, leveling out usage.
Secondly, due to this more uniform usage we do not have to over staff to accommodate for large crowd control,
creating better employee utilization.
Therefore, at the new athletic club like our current, we will not have any unusually high demand periods.
If you have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact me.

Re: Case No. CUP 97-10
Dear Mr. Drell:
I am the owner of the industrial property directly next door to this subject property. My
property address is 74-794 Lennon Place and 41-700 Corporate Way. I would like to go
on record as being strongly opposed to you approving this CUP application. The
proposed request will cause numerous problems for both myself, as owner, and all my
Specifically, the offstreet narking situation is a problem due to the fact that the properties
adjoin each other with a common drive and pass-through. The health club customers will
have access to all available parking on my property, restricting parking for my tenants.
Also, in the event that a health club customer should have a personal injury or cause an
auto accident on my property, I would be liable. I understand that this could be the case
no matter who would park unlawfully on my property, but due to the additional exposure
of many more people using the health facility, the chances are greater for this liability.
The other issue is the beer and wine license in this CUP application. I would be strongly
opposed to any beer and wine served on the premises due to the possibility of abuse of
these beverages. In this area, there are always trucks, forklifts, and various other
equipment that an intoxicated person could possibly cause injury and/or an incident.
All the tenants in my buildings have expressed concern on all the above issues and strongly
oppose the use in this CUP application. We would appreciate your sincere consideration
in not allowing this use in this location.
Sincerely,

I wish to be on record that I protest the issuing of a conditional use permit to

I do not feel that this is the type of business which is compatible with the other
business in the surrounding areas, plus I would forsee problems regarding the

Dear Mr. Drell:
I'm a tenant at 41-700 Corporate Way Suite D. Palm Desert, CA.
I would like to go on record that I'm opposed to the City of Palm Desert approving
the CUP application, for the following reason.
1. There is not enough parking spaces for the current tenants occupying the 41-700
Corporate Way facility. If you allow the approval of this application, you will be
creating additional parking problems for the existing business owners.

CASE NO: CUP 97-10
REQUEST: Approval of a conditional use permit for a 22,000 square foot health
club with future beer and wine license in part of the vacant industrial
building at 74-824 Lennon Place.
APPLICANT: Rick Muro/Dr. Peter Greenberg
73-944 Olive Court
Palm Desert, CA 92260
BACKGROUND: •
Based on commission direction, Mr. Muro has continued to work to resolve concerns
of property owners and businesses in the area.
The property owner to the west reiterated his objections expressed in his July 7th
letter. His principal concerns involve potential use of his parking lot by athletic club
members, blocking of fire lanes and insurance liability.
Mr. Muro has agreed to provide a parking/security attendant to insure that athletic
club members will park in designated spaces and away from Lupo's lot and fire lanes.
In addition Mr. Muro's insurance company has agreed to provide Mr. Lupo with a
$1 ,000,000.00 certificate of insurance naming him as additional insured in the event
an athletic club member files suite due to injury on his property. This assumes Mr.
Lupo has his own primary liability insurance.
He has revised his parking layout in front of the building adding 13 parking spaces
for a total of 80 on-site. The easterly 7,000 square feet of vacant space originally
mentioned as a potential children's gym will instead be used by the owner for indoor
storage of RV's and classic cars. Ten parking spaces would be made available in this
area for staff and club members bringing the onsite total to 90. With the 68 onstreet
spaces immediately adjacent to the site, the health club would have parking for 1 58
cars.
Mr. Muro has submitted a club attendance analysis based on triple his present club
membership which indicates peak demand (5:30-10:00 a.m. and 5:00-9:00 p.m.) To
be 96 members. Even if all 96 members were simultaneously present and requiring

a parking place, the available supply would be adequate. Mr. Muro's analysis is
consistent with staff's analysis of peak capacity of each of the club activity areas
which indicated a maximum demand of 115 spaces.

Staff continues to recommend approval subject to conditions.

Re: Case No. CUP 97-10
Dear Mr. Drell:
It is my understanding that a City Council meeting was held on July 15, 1997, and there
was a vote taken concerning the above CUP application. I was told that at the beginning
of the hearing that only 4 city council members were present and that a 2-2 vote would
constitute a descending vote for this application. However, when the council voted on the
health club application, the vote was 2-2, but the council elected to continue this
application until August 5, 1997. I do not understand the thinking process of the City
Council. Based on the decision of the council prior to the vote, a 2-2 decision should have
meant a denial of the application.
I would also like you to review my letter of July 14, 1997 and present those concerns to the
council cnce again.
Sincerely,

Re: Case no. GPA 97-3
Dear Planning Commission Member,
My name is Ray Eliante and I am the owner of Country Club Mirror& Glass located at
74-794 Lennon Place in Palm Desert. I am writing to express my interest in your
decision to be made at the August 5, 1997, meeting. Unfortunately, I will be unable to
attend the meeting due to business.
I was in attendance at the meeting of July 15, 1997, and must say, I am somewhat
confused and disappointed in the turn of events. My understanding of Agenda Item Ill
was that, a 2-2 vote would be considered a denial from the Commission. The vote was
2-2. I further understood both Commissioners Sonya Campbell and George Hernandez
to say that, if Mr. Muro could arrive at an agreement with any surrounding business
to let Mr. Muro use their parking spaces for overflow in the off-hours, the Commission
would allow it. 1 assumed that to be a "conditional" yes, requiring others to, in effect,
sign off for the approval. Since Mr. Muro contacted all surrounding parties in
advance of the meeting and could not persuade any businesses to agree, and since the
vote was 2-2. why and how is this still an issue! Additionally, i believe Mr. Phil Drell
was out the line with his comment to save Mr. Muro's attempts.
1 truly believe that both the Commissioner's and Mr. Drell's comments came as a
result of compassion and concern for Mr. Muro's plight. I cannot blame them for what
appears to me, to be a decision of the heart. No one can ever be faulted for that. I
personally, was unaware of Mr. Muro's previous attempts to locate his business only
to meet the same opposition. I am sure it must be very frustrating and disheartening
for him. But, setting all of that aside, WE HAVE A PARKING PROBLEM.
As the Commission is aware, this area was under the jurisdiction of the County when it
was built. Now we are facing the problem of poor parking ratios! Arguments can be
made about other City's ratios, but we are not any other cities. We do not want to be.
We are different, we are better, we set the standards. Almost everything this city
does is copied by others. We will have a beautiful city for many years and will
continue to draw from within the Valley, the State, and the Nation (not to mention the
international markets), because of the standards that we subscribe to.
I understand that the parking required "by code"for Mr. Muro's business is 150
spaces. He presently has 21 spaces and wants to add 46 more. This is far short of
the amount needed to meet code! Mr. Muro will be occupying approximately 22,000
square feet of space, a second user will occupy the balance of 8,000 square feet. NO
consideration has been taken for the other user's parking which would be 57 spaces
for a total shortage of 140. This would be in total violation of"code"!

My business is currently being squeezed at the west and south end with the north end
being a non-accessible property line. On each side of the building i occupy, there are
fire lanes that are designed for traffic flow - not parking. My company,just like any
successful business, has numerous large tractor-trailer deliveries daily. Due to these
lanes being blocked by parked cars, we have great difficulty receiving goods. At
times, we have difficulty maneuvering our own trucks as they come and go during a
regular business day.
As I have previously mentioned, I have reported this to my landlord who has posted
"no parking"signs. I have also notified the local fire department and fire Marshall, the
City of Palm Desert code enforcement and the Police Department. To my knowledge,
only 2 warnings have been issued in the 7 years that I have been here. This lack of
enforcement is a very critical issue, an issue that is designed to save property and,
more importantly, lives. As this issue is not being address now, how can I believe that
it ever will be. In an already congested area, to allow a business that is 140 parking
spaces short of their need would be ludicrous.
To recap:
1. We have a major parking problem.
2. Fire lanes are blocked.
3. There is no enforcement in the fire lanes.
4. The required parking for Mr. Muro and the additional tenant is impossible
to attain and not to code.
5. Mr. Muro was denied by this Commission at other locations DUE TO
PARKING which has established a precedence.
in closing. I ask that you review the enclosed photographs to give you an idea of the
parking problem. Please keep in mind that this is our "off-season"and the situation is
worsened by. as much as, 4 to 5 times from October to May(8 months). Thank you
for your time and consideration.

obviously not a professional. I would, however, like you to keep in
mind that it is the end of July (our off season), and things only get
busier during the season.
Each photo is numbered and below is the corresponding situation
which you are looking at:
1. 8:35 AM 7/21/97: Early Monday in late July - no retail yet.
2. This is the main access for my deliveries, there are sometimes 4 to
5 vehicles parked in this firelane.
3. and 4. Show our most congested areas.
S. and 6. This shows the same problems as 3. & 4. S. & 6. Actually
become part of their shop. Photos in 5 show the constant usage of
mid size commercial trucks which exit at the proposed entrance.
7. When our alleys are full, our semi truck drivers park here to
relieve congested street traffic.

Dear Phil,
Enclosed please find the package of information I would like to submit to you and the Planning
Commissioners. This package includes 1: An analysis of parking requirements if the athletic club
were to triple in membership 2: Photos of the proposed site showing how vacant the area is at
9:00am 3: Copies of letters I have sent to Mr. Paul Lupo and Ray Eliante addressing their concerns
along with a copy of the letter our Insurance company submitted verifying indemnity for Mr. Lupo 4:
A letter to you from our building owner Robert Hess 5: Letters of support from the neighboring
tenants, some of which are tenants of Paul Lupo's building.
It is my sincere hope that after the review of all this material you and the commissioners will agree
that the proposed site makes sense for our project and you see that I am willing to work very hard to
be a good neighbor.

Dear Mr. Lupo,
I am in receipt of a copy of your latest correspondence with the City of Palm Desert in regards to our
CUP application for the adjacent building to your property on Lennon Ave. The reason for my letter
is to explain our position and to address any and all your concerns with regard to our project.
Mr. Lupo, I have for more than the past two years been attempting to expand my existing health club
here in Palm Desert. I would like the opportunity to provide services to the families and senior
clientele in our area in a facility that they can be proud of. Over the Two years I have negotiated on
nearly every piece of land and building that would be suitable for our use. This includes the One
Eleven Town Center, the land at the corner of Fred Waring and Monterey, the vacant Circuit City
building, the property adjacent to Moller's Gardens, The Desert Crossing Center, The old Sprouse
Ritz building, the property north of 1st Bank on Monterey Ave., the property at El Paseo and Hwy 111
and now the building on Lennon. For one reason or another none of the other properties worked.
We are, because of many factors devoted to making this project work. It frankly means the livelihood
of my family and those who I employ. To this end I am willing to satisfy all your concerns addressed
in your letter to the city of Palm Desert. 1. Parking - we have since the last Planning Commission
meeting added an additional 26 spaces, giving us nearly 100 spaces on site. With the allowance of
just those street spaces in front of our building this gives us over 125 spaces for our patrons. To
further mitigate your concern I will have a Parking/Security Attendant that will patrol the parking lot
and street to make sure no one is parked in un-designated areas including your lot and fire lanes.
Tenant disruption - by no means with the larger parking area, parking attendant, and the fact that we
are talking about civilized athletic club members using our facility, will there be any disruption of the
quiet enjoyment of your property. Insurance - in order to mitigate your concern over possible liability
exposure my insurance company will additionally insure you from any claim that may be made by
one of my patrons, (enclosed is the copy of the letter from my insurer stating such) I would even be
pleased to pay for your certificate for the same. Beer and Wine - Our club is a membership only
facility and not a bar open to the public. This service is nothing more than an added amenity for the
private use of our members. Again, we will be providing security on premises. Desert Heat - they
will no longer be occupying the remaining 7000 sq. ft. of the building. This will be used as additional
parking.
Mr. Lupo, I sincerely hope that we are able to be congenial neighbors, and that you find that our
presence is an asset to the success of your tenants now and in the future.
I will close this letter by sharing a story with you - On the Sunday before our last planning
commission meeting my father died, he was a young man. Due to the complications of surgery he
developed a blood clot that resulted in a stroke. My father although having a few moments of
alertness did not seem to be recovering. On that final Sunday I was forced with a decision, the
decision whether to continue to visit the hospital three times a day with the agony of watching my
father lie there with all types of tubes and life support keeping him alive, or to remove him from this
and allow him to die. The decision to remove your father that is alive from life support, the decision
to allow someone to die. Mr. Lupo, these are the big decisions we must make in life and I wish that
no one ever has to go though the trauma that this situation brings. The decision for you to work with
me so that I have a chance to be in business, the same as you are, is a far easier one to make. I am
sure that we can peacefully co-exist as neighbors and I have my hand out to you to accomplish this.
Please consider all the solutions I have presented and if there are any more or you have any
additional concerns please contact me, your satisfaction has my highest priority.
Respectfully,
is Muro

Rick:
Per our telephone conversation this date, our company has agreed to provide your neighbor
with a certificate of insurance naming him additional insured in the event one of your
members should file suit against his business because of injury in the common area
between your businesses. Since we have agreed to provide this endorsement, we would
expect the same from him. This endorsement would cost you a minimum additional premium
per year of $52.
The reason we have hesitated to provide this coverage, is because when we write additions:
insured coverage it provides protection to the person or company so named against loss
by the terms of the policy. If this person or company does not have any general liabil.it
insurance of their own, we could inadvertently be picking up all the liabilty for them.
Naturally, we do not want to be picking up all their coverage.
After reviewing this information, please let us know what you would like to do.

Dear Ray,
I am writing you in regards to our CUP application for the adjacent building to your business. I have
has been delivered to Mr. Lupo, that I believe, addresses all your concerns
enclosed a letter that p
with regard to our project.
Let me point out that we are adding an additional 26 parking spaces and will patrol the lot to assure
no one parks in un-designated areas. Ray, I appreciate the fact that you have problems on the east
side of your building, we in no way will add to that problem. I also, after talking with Lino's have their
support for our project, they feel that the alley way between your two suites is a separate issue. I
hope, as I have asked Mr. Lupo, that you will see that we are able to be congenial neighbors, and
that you find that our presence is an asset to the success of your business now and in the future.
Please take the time to review my letter to Mr. Lupo. I would hope that you then will help me to have
the opportunity to be in business here by affirming to the me or to the City of Palm Desert that we
have resolved your concerns with regard to our project.
If you do have any further concerns please contact me immediately. Your satisfaction, as is Mr.
Lupo's is my highest priority.

Dear Steve,
I am the owner of the building in which the proposed Pinnacle Athletic Club is to be located under CUP 97-10.
•
As you probably know my building has been vacant for over one year. Not being in the enterprise zone and
having no financial incentives by either the state or local government has made it very difficult to lease a building
of this size. Therefore, let me urge yours and the Commissions approval of this application.
I know that Mr. Muro has worked very closely with the neighboring businesses, has more than adequately
addressed all their concerns and even garnered much support. On that subject let me say, I am aware that Mr.
Paul Lupo has opposed this usage and add that Mr. Lupo has previously made two wholesale offers in an attempt
to purchase my building. In addition, I presently will be using the remaining 7200 sq. ft. of building for the use
of storing motor homes, antique and classic cars of which 10 spaces will be available to Mr. Muro's customers.
Again, let me stress how important of economic impact your approval will make. I will continue to work with
Mr. Muro to make this a successful project.
Sincerely,

VIA FACSIMILE
Dear Mr. Muro:
Per our conversation I would like to clarify the situation concerning the problem
you are experiencing regarding your new facility on Lennon.
As I understand you have been led to believe that we are the main problem
regarding the parking situation for our unit. Our problem does not relate to
customer parking, but in access to the entrance to our garage in the rear of the
building. Our concern is to keep accessibility through the rear of our building.
This area must be clear for fire equipment should an emergency occur. Our
business does require the use of this access way to enter and exit several times a
day. Our problem is the other businesses that utilize this area have been parking
vehicles and therefore making it difficult for us to bring our cars in and out as
needed during the day. However, in truth our customer space is limited.
This has been our ongoing complaint but the problem has never been addressed
and solved. The only solution we were offered was, and I quote, "you have just
outgrown your facility and need to move on".
Like you Rick. I fail to understand why people just can't work together and
cooperate to make all our businesses successful. After all, we all have the same
goals, and exposure is beneficial to us all. Therefore, I for one do not oppose
your usage. I only hope that you respect the needs of the surrounding businesses
in enforcing parking restrictions.
I trust this letter will better explain our position.

Re: Case No. CUP97-10
Dear Mr. Drell:
As a follow-up to my letter, dated July 7, 1997 and the Public Hearing on July 15, 1997,
which 1 addressed the City Council, 1 would further like to express my position and
doncerns. At the City Council meeting, the Council stated at the start of the hearing that
only 4 Council persons were present and that a 2-2 vote would be a descending vote.
However, when the council voted on the above stated Health Club CUP application, and
the result of the vote was 2 for and 2 opposed, the council voted to continue the public
hearing on this application until August 5, 1997. This is very disturbing, confusing, and
inconsistent as to the process which was agreed upon but not executed. 1 must insist that
the council consider their vote, at that meeting, and affirm that this CUP application is
denied.
Also, the issue 1 raised at the meeting concerning the risk of losing my liability insurance
ebctends to my institutional lender having the right to call my mortgage due, in the event
that 1 would lose this insurance. Also, concerning the fire lane signs that are currently
posted on my property, we are constantly having to ask people to move their cars out of
these fire lanes. In the event that you approve the health club use, which requires 150
spaces on a property that only has 67 spaces plus Desert Heats usage, God help us all if
either of these buildings have a fire and the fire trucks can't get in to these fire lanes.
Please consider the problems of parking, insurance, tenant disruption, and beer and wine
that will be ongoing everyday problems if you approve this CUP application. 1 will
continue to oppose this use not matter what it takes.
Sincerely,
Paul M. Lupo
