HomeMy WebLinkAboutYMCA Temporary Facility at Portola Community Park INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
City of Palm Desert
TO: CITY MANAGER AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
DATE: JULY 23, 1986
SUBJECT: YMCA TEMPORARY FACILITY AT PORTOLA COMMUNITY PARK
The Family Y of the Desert is ready to proceed with locating their temporary
facility at Portola Community Park. During the hearings on the formerly
proposed Palm Desert Youth Center facility on Rutledge those in opposition
stated if the facility were located in the park proper by the baseball diamond
their concerns would be mitigated. The Family Y proposes to locate their
temporary facility at that location.
Because the area of the temporary facility is leased from Desert Sands Unified
School District their agreement has already been obtained. In addition, the
prominent spokesperson during the hearings for the Palm Desert Youth Center
was contacted to inform him of the Family Y's proposal as well as the long
range plans for the Family Y of the Desert's permanent facility. Because the
current proposal is for a temporary facility and is located where it was
agreed at previous hearings there would not be a concern with the present
proposal .
RECOMMENDATION:
That council authorize the Family Y of the Desert to proceed with locating
their temporary facility at Portola Community Park.
APPROVED By CITY COUNCIL
