Evan, Joe, Gina, Karina, Jan ~
We cannot remain silent in our disappointment with the Palm Desert City
Council’s decision not to support Joe Pradetto’s proposal regarding flags
flown at City Hall.
Government buildings should fly only the United States flag and the
California state flag, as these represent ALL RESIDENTS EQUALLY. When
a city government chooses to promote one group while excluding others, it
creates division rather than unity.
Just as treating children differently leads to resentment and division,
unequal treatment by the government fosters discord rather than harmony.
Fairness and equal representation should guide every decision made on
behalf of the public.
We attended the City Council meeting where Joe Pradetto proposed that no
individual group’s flag be flown. Several council members expressed support
at that time, making it especially disappointing to see that support fade once
opposition arose. Leadership requires conviction, particularly when faced
with adversity. Our community deserves elected officials who stand firm in
their principles, not those who retreat under pressure.
We want strong, principled leadership on our City Council. In the next
election cycle, we will support council members who demonstrate courage,
independence, and a commitment to unity over division.

APARTMENTS SITE IMPROVEMENTS (PROJECT NO. CHA00004)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Award a construction contract to Van Engineering, Inc., of Wildomar, California, in the
amount of $216,163, plus a $21,616 contingency for unforeseen expenses (Project No.
CHA00004/Project ID 2025-IFB-212).
2. Authorize the Director of Finance to appropriate funds from Housing Authority Fund Balance

4. Authorize the Executive Director to execute the agreement and any written requests for
change orders up to the contingency amount, amendments, and any documents n ecessary
to effectuate the actions taken herewith.
5. Authorize the Executive Director to execute the Notice of Completion (NOC) and the City
Clerk to file the NOC upon satisfactory completion of the Project.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
The Palm Desert Housing Authority (Authority) owns and manages the Taos Palms Apartments
(Taos), located at 44830 Las Palmas Avenue, which includes sixteen (16) affordable housing
units. Taos has experienced ongoing flooding during rain events, which has directly impacted
residents; therefore, the property has been identified as a high -priority site for rehabilitation. To
address the ongoing flooding, exterior improvements are needed throughout the courtyards and
parking areas, including asphalt concrete, landscaping, and drainage.
The proposed project will demolish and replace the existing asphalt, sidewalk, landscaping, and
drainage, including modifications to the grading and drainage. These site improvements will
address flooding issues and correct site ADA deficiencies, which will enhance accessibility and
overall site conditions.
The project was released in an Invitation for Bid on the City’s public procurement portal on
November 18, 2025 (2025-IFB-212). A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting and site visit was held
on December 3, 2025, in which seven contractors attended. The Authority received the following
two bids by the December 18, 2025, deadline.

Page 2 of 3
Contractor Location Total Bid
The engineer’s estimate for the project is $237,500, and construction is expected to be
completed within 60 calendar days. After reviewing the bids, staff determined that Van
Engineering Inc. submitted the lowest responsive bid and meets all requirements to perform the
work. For these reasons, staff recommends that the Housing Authority Board approve the award
of the contract to Van Engineering, Inc. and authorize all related actions.
Legal Review:
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This project has been identified as a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)–funded
project and will be reimbursed using CDBG funds. On December 11, 2025, City Council
approved $232,744.11 in CDBG funding for this project. In addition, $6,800 in remaining CDBG
funds from Fiscal Year 2024-25 was reallocated, bringing the total CDBG allocation for the
project to $239,544.11. An appropriation is required to accommodate the project expenditures;
however, CDBG-eligible costs are reimbursable at 100 percent by the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD). As a result, all costs will be recovered and there will
be no fiscal impact to the Housing Authority or General Fund.

ARTICLE 4. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
Contractor acknowledges that the Authority will sustain actual damages for each and every Day
completion of the Project is delayed beyond the Contract Time. Because of the nature of
the Project, it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to determine the Authority’s
actual damages. Accordingly, in accordance with Government Code section 53069.85, it
is agreed that the Contractor will pay the Authority the sum of $1,000.00 for each and
every Day of delay beyond the time prescribed in the Contract Documents for finishing
the Work, as Liquidated Damages and not as a penalty or forfeiture. In the event this is
not paid, the Contractor agrees the Authority may deduct that amount from any money
due or that may become due the Contractor under the Contract. This Section does not
exclude recovery of other damages specified in the Contract Documents. Liquidated
damages may be deducted from progress payments due Contractor, Project retention or
may be collected directly from Contractor, or from Contractor's surety. These provisions
for liquidated damages shall not prevent the Authority, in case of Contractor's default,
from terminating the Contractor.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 22, 2026
PREPARED BY: Erica Powell, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: APPROVE TEN-YEAR LOAN AGREEMENT WITH GOLDENVOICE FOR
INSTALLATION OF ‘TAFFY’ ARTWORK BY STEPHANIE LIN AT CIVIC
CENTER PARK
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve a ten-year artwork Loan Agreement with Goldenvoice for the installation of Taffy by
Stephanie Lin at Civic Center Park.
2. Approve expenditure in an amount not to exceed $180,070 payable to Goldenvoice for
Artwork and installation costs.
3. Authorize the City Attorney to make non-monetary changes to the contract.
4. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement and any other documents necessary
to complete the project.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
On November 13, 2025, staff presented a study session to the City Council regarding a proposed
ten-year loan agreement with Goldenvoice for the installation of Taffy by Stephanie Lin at Civic
Center Park. Staff identified the area south of the Skate Park and north of City Hall at Civic
Center Park as a potential location. The site offers high visibility from San Pablo Avenue,
convenient access from public parking, and strong integration with the City’s civic and cultural
corridor.
Goldenvoice’s Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is internationally recognized for
commissioning large-scale, interactive public artworks that integrate shade and seating with the
festival environment while celebrating desert aesthetics. Following each festival, selected works
such as Taffy are deinstalled and made available for extended public exhibition throughout the
Coachella Valley.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Taffy is an immersive sculptural installation composed of five vertical towers (ranging from 25 to
50 feet tall) constructed of lightweight framing wrapped in translucent, scalloped mesh fabric.
The towers shift in color and tone as sunlight passes through, evo king Palm Desert’s midcentury
design palette. Integrated circular benches provide shaded seating and an inviting gathering
space for park visitors.
Under the proposed terms, Goldenvoice would retain ownership of Taffy and, through The Public
Art Company (PAC), manage all transportation, installation, and maintenance for the duration of
the lease. Additionally, the City shall reimburse Goldenvoice for artwork maintenance expenses
157

Loan Agreement with Goldenvoice for Taffy by Stephanie Lin
Page 2 of 3
in an amount not to exceed $5,000 per fiscal year. The City would prepare the site providing
lighting, landscaping, foundation work, benches and coordinate ongoing site upkeep.
Legal Review:
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.
Appointed Body Recommendation:
At its regular meeting on July 9, 2025, the Cultural Arts Committee voted 6–1 to recommend City
Council approval of a ten-year loan agreement for Taffy by artist Stephanie Lin for installation at
Civic Center Park, including City-funded site enhancements.
The Parks and Recreation Committee reviewed the proposal on August 5, 2025, and expressed
favorable feedback.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The total project cost is not expected to exceed $300,000 and will be funded entirely through the
FY 2025/26 Public Art Capital Projects Account No. 4364650-4400100.
Artwork and Installation Costs
Artist and The Public Art Company (PAC) Fee $68,500
Estimated transportation and installation costs $95,200
10% contingency $16,370
Subtotal $180,070
Estimated City Site Enhancement Costs
Landscaping, lighting, benches, foundations, etc. $119,930
Total $300,000
The City will reimburse Goldenvoice up to $5,000 annually for artwork maintenance.
Maintenance expenses will be budgeted for annually in the Public Art Repair and Maintenance
Account No. 4364650-4337200.
No General Fund dollars will be used for this project.

(“Owner”). City and Owner are sometimes individually referred to herein as “Party”
and collectively as “Parties.”
RECITALS
A. The Owner desires to loan to the City on a long-term basis an

herein, the City and the Owner agrees as follows:
1. Loan. Owner agrees to lend the Art Work to the City, and City

choosing a different location for the display of the Art Work.
2. Term and Display Period. The term of the loan of the Art Work shall
be for a period of 10 years starting on the date Art Work is installed during which
time the Art Work shall be displayed at the Display Site (“Display Period”). The
Display Period may be shortened or extended in duration by mutual agreement
between Owner and City. Upon expiration of the Display Period, the agreement
may be extended for an additional term of years, mutually agreed to by the parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, City reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to
remove from display or terminate the exhibition of the Art Work at any time by
sending a written notice to the Owner of such decision.
3. Ownership. The Art Work is and shall remain the property of the
Owner. Notwithstanding, the Owner grants to the City the right of possession in
the Art Work for the term and purposes set forth in this Agreement. If Owner sells

including, but not limited to, the City’s right to custody and possession during the
initial Display Term.
4. License Reproduction Rights. Owner hereby grants a license to the
City, in perpetuity, the right to photograph, film, videotape, or otherwise depict the
Art Work at any time during the Display Period and to use such photographs, film,
videotapes, or depictions in the regular course of dissemination of information,
promotion and publicity relating to the Art Work or the City, including use of images
of the Art Work on the City’s website. The foregoing does not grant the City any
reproduction rights, merchandising rights, rights to produce collateral materials or
any secondary commercial exploitation of any photographs, film, videotapes or

vandalized, in which case solvent will be necessary to remove any paint.
5.5. Owner shall be responsible for arranging the removal of the
Artwork from the Display Site and for all associated costs, except when removal
occurs prior to the end of the Display Period as a result of the City’s notification to

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
On August 5, 2025, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map 38640 (TTM
38640) by Resolution No. 2896. The request by Robert Johnson (Applicant) was to subdivide a
0.31-acre property into four (4) residential lots to construct a single-story multi-family complex
for condominium purposes and one (1) common lot for access, parking, drainage, and trash
collection purposes located at 73815 Shadow Mountain Drive (APN 627-341-004).
Resolution No. 2896 included Conditions of Approval for certain improvements to be constructed
and impact fees to be paid. The City Engineer has determined that Final Tract Map (FTM 38640)
meets the application requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and the City’s ordinances. The Final
Map has been deemed technically correct by the City Engineer, and the Conditions of Approval in
the resolution have been satisfied for FTM 38640. Applicant has entered into a Subdivision
Improvement Agreement with bonds for the completion and payment of these improvements based
on the Cost Estimates provided to the City and approved by the City Engineer.
The Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) of the Homeowner’s Association (HOA)
document the maintenance obligations for the proposed site, which includes maintaining all lots
reserved for open space, landscaping and storm drain purposes, and all landscaping located in
the public right-of-way adjacent to private property.
Legal Review:
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund with this action.

SUBJECT: RECEIVE AND FILE THE INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT ON
AGREED-UPON PROCEDURES PERFORMED ON THE MEASURE A
TRANSPORTATION FUND FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30,
2025
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file the Independent Accountants’ Report on Agreed-Upon Procedures Performed
on the Measure A Transportation Fund for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
The Measure A fund is a special revenue fund created to track funds received by the Riverside
County Transportation Commission. In 1988, Riversid e County voters approved a half-cent sales
tax, known as Measure A, to fund various highway improvements, local streets and roads
maintenance, commuter assistance, and specialized transit projects.
Conrad LLP performed the procedures, agreed to by the Riverside County Transportation
Commission (RCTC), solely to assist RCTC with respect to an evaluation of the City of Palm
Desert’s Measure A Transportation Fund and the degree of the City’s compliance with RCTC
requirements for the year ended June 30, 202 5.
The agreed-upon procedures report issued by Conrad LLP found the City to be in compliance
with its Maintenance of Effort (MOE) requirements, but noted an accumulated excess fund
balance of $17.1 million from prior-year revenues. The City has budgeted $25.1 million in
Measure A expenditures in Fiscal Year 2025-26, which are anticipated to deplete the $17.1
million excess.
Staff requests that the City Council receive and file the Report on Agreed -Upon Procedures
Performed on the Measure A Transportation Fund for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
Legal Review:

On Applying Agreed-Upon Procedures
The Board of Commissioners
Riverside County Transportation Commission
Riverside, California
We have performed the procedures enumerated below on Measure A - Local Streets and Roads
Program of the City of Palm Desert, California (“City”) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025.
Riverside County Transportation Commission (“RCTC”) has agreed to and acknowledged that the
procedures performed are appropriate to meet the intended purpose on whether the City was in
compliance with the Measure A - Local Streets and Roads Program grant terms and conditions
for the year ended June 30, 2025. Additionally, RCTC and the City have agreed to and
acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. This report may
not be suitable for any other purpose. The procedures performed may not address all of the items
of interest to a user of this report and may not meet the needs of all users of this report and, as
such, users are responsible for determining whether the procedures performed are appropriate
for their purposes.
The procedures and related findings are as follows:
1. Review the 2009 Measure A (“Ordinance 02-001”) compliance requirements. Western
County jurisdictions are required to participate in the Transportation Uniform Mitigation
Fee (“TUMF”) program and in the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (“MSHCP”),
which are administered by the Western Riverside Council of Governments (“WRCOG”)
and the Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (“RCA”), respectively.
Coachella Valley jurisdictions are required to participate in the TUMF program
administered by the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (“CVAG”). Indicate
participation in TUMF and/or MSHCP programs.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of applying this procedure. The City
participates in the TUMF program administered by CVAG.
2. Obtain from RCTC the approved Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan (“CIP”) for the fiscal
year.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of applying this procedure.
3. Obtain from the jurisdiction a detail general ledger and balance sheet for the fiscal year.
a. Identify the amount of Measure A cash and investments recorded at the end of the
fiscal year. Compare amount to Measure A fund balance and provide an explanation
for any differences greater than 25% of fund balance.

Finding: Measure A cash and investments were $17,640,933 at June 30, 2025. The
difference between Measure A cash and investments of $17,640,933 and fund
balance of $17,107,013 is $533,920 or 3.12% of the fund balance.
b. Identify amounts due from other funds.
Finding: There were no amounts due from other funds at June 30, 2025.
c. Identify the components of ending fund balance for Measure A activity (e.g.,
nonspendable, restricted, assigned, committed, unassigned).
Finding: Ending fund balance for Measure A activity was restricted in the amount of
$17,107,013 at June 30, 2025.
i. Identify the existence of any restatement of Measure A fund balance; inquire of
management as to the reason for any restatement and provide a summary of the
restatement items.
Finding: We noted the restatement of Measure A fund balance at June 30, 2024 in
the amount of $4,211 due to an interest allocation adjustment. Due to this adjusting
journal entry, the fund balance and revenue increased as follows:
Amount per FY
2024 Report
Adjustment
Amount Restated
for FY 2024
Fund balance $ 23,386,003 $ 4,211 $ 23,390,214
Revenue $ 4,816,963 $ 4,211 $ 4,821,174
ii. Compare ending fund balance to total revenues for the current year and prior two
years. If ending fund balance is greater than sum of total revenues for the three-
year period, inquire of management as to the reason(s) for the accumulation of
fund balance (e.g., status of specific projects included in the 5-Year CIP).
Finding: We noted that the City’s ending fund balance was greater than the
cumulative total revenues for the 3-year period as illustrated below.
Revenue for year ended June 30, 2025 $ 4,461,600
Revenue for year ended June 30, 2024 4,821,174
Revenue for year ended June 30, 2023 4,398,556
Total Revenue for the 3-year period
$ 13,681,330
Fund balance for year ended June 30, 2025 $ 17,107,013
The City management stated that the accumulation of funds will be depleted based
on the city adopting an aggressive 5-year CIP plan that anticipates spending the
majority of the accumulated Measure A funds in FY 2025/26. The City established
a Capital Projects Department in fiscal year 2022/23, which has been tasked with
the completion of several of these projects.

5-year CIP for 2029/30 $ 3,387,000 $ 3,300,000 $ 1,992,013
Based on the approved 5-year CIP for FY 2024/25, the City estimated current year
expenditures to be $21,960,000. However, the current year actual expenditure was
$10,744,801, which resulted in a shortfall of estimated expenditures of
$11,215,199. The estimated unspent expenditure of $11,215,199 is primarily due
to industry-wide delays for construction projects, including continued challenges
with materials and labor availability, which have delayed some of the anticipated
Measure A spending into subsequent periods. There is a concerted effort internally
by the City to drawdown the accumulated surplus through planned and
programmed projects.
4. Obtain an operating statement for Measure A activity for the fiscal year, including budget
amounts; include the operating statement as an exhibit to the report.
a. Review the revenues in the operating statement.
i. Inquire of management as to what fund was used to record Measure A revenues
received from RCTC and identify total revenues were for the fiscal year.
Finding: The City accounts for Measure A revenues in its Measure A Fund (“Fund
#213”). The City recorded total revenues in the amount of $4,461,600 for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2025.
ii. Obtain from RCTC a listing of Measure A payments to the jurisdiction.
1. Compare the Measure A sales tax revenues recorded by the jurisdiction to
the listing of payments made by RCTC.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 22, 2026
PREPARED BY: Richard D. Cannone, AICP, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: ALLOCATION OF FUNDS AND APPROVAL OF PURCHASE AND SALE
AGREEMENT FOR THE ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY FOR DAVE
ERWIN PARK ACCESS
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve the allocation of $23,232 from the Capital Bond Funds Account No 4514618-
5000913 for the acquisition of approximately 2,122 square feet of property, as provided in
Attachment 2, for right-of-way purposes to provide access to the soon-to-be-built Dave Erwin
Park.
2. Approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement with the property owner at the rate of $11.00 per
square foot, based on a 2023 appraisal.
3. Authorize the City Attorney to make any necessary non -monetary changes to the agreement.
4. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents to complete the acquisition.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
The City is in the process of developing Dave Erwin Park. To provide appropriate access to the
park, the acquisition of a portion of an adjacent parcel (approximately 2,112 SF) is required for
right-of-way purposes (see attachment 2).
Staff initiated discussions with the property owner regarding a potential purchase of the required
right-of-way. The owner has offered the property at $11.00 per square foot, based on a 2023
appraisal. At the time of the appraisal, Technology Drive had not yet been full y extended. With
the roadway now completed and accepted by the City, it is possible that the current market value
may be higher. This information was also provided as background to the City Council during the
November 13, 2025, study session regarding the Millennium Specific Plan Development
Agreement, to inform Council of right-of-way considerations associated with both the park and
adjacent developments.
Palm Communities are required, as a condition of approval, to acquire a portion of the area to
provide access to a property it recently purchased from the City. Because additional right-of-way
is needed, staff determined it would be more efficient for the City to lead the acquisition process
rather than having multiple entities independently negotiate with the property owner. Palm
Communities has been notified that it will be responsible for reimbursing the City for its
proportional share of the acquisition, approximately 574 square feet. This reimbursement will be
addressed through a separate agreement , which will be brought forward for City Council
consideration at a future meeting.

Environmental Review
The proposed actions are exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) (Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq.) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections
15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3), because the actions will not result in a direct or reasonably
foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and do not constitute a “project” as
defined in CEQA Guidelines section 15378. The actions are limited to approving funding and
executing a purchase agreement to acquire approximately 2,122 square feet of property for right -
of-way purposes, and do not authorize any construction or physical site disturbance.
In addition, the actions are exempt under the commonsense exemption set forth in CEQA
Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility
the actions may have a significant effect on the environment.
A Notice of Exemption shall be filed with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse in
accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 15062.
Legal Review:
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.

given its consent to the specified scope of such Invasive Investigations if SELLER does not (within

SELLER permits any Invasive Investigations during the Due Diligence Period, and those Invasive
Investigations compromises any agent applied to prevent dust migration or blowing, such as a

the same condition that existed prior to the Invasive Investigation. BUYER shall conduct any

(d) BUYER has the unrestricted right to use the Property Information, including reports
and studies, in connection with BUYER’s review of the Property and BUYER’s efforts to obtain its
permits and approvals. BUYER may make copies of the Property Information at BUYER’s
expense and may share the Property Information with its attorneys and consultants who have an
obligation of confidentiality to BUYER regarding the Property Information. If SELLER obtains new
information about the Property during the Due Diligence Period that is material, SELLER shall
promptly deliver a copy of that information or otherwise disclose such information in writing to
BUYER.

supplemental escrow instructions of the Escrow Agent and the provisions of this Agreement, this
Agreement shall supersede and be controlling. Upon any termination of this Agreement or
cancellation of the Escrow, except as results from the default of SELLER, BUYER shall be solely
responsible for the payment of the escrow cancellation charges of the Escrow Agent.
Section 9. Title Report; Survey; Conveyance of Title.

Escrow Agent shall record the Deed in the Official Records of Riverside County, California at the
Close of Escrow.
(b) Within five (5) days following the Opening of Escrow, SELLER shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be delivered or otherwise made available to BUYER
a current preliminary report from a title company of BUYER’s choice (the “Title Company”)
209
6
covering the Property, together with full and legible copies of all supporting documents
(collectively, “Preliminary Report”). BUYER may further order a survey of the Property from a
licensed surveyor sufficient to obtain an ALTA title insurance policy (“Survey”). The Title Company
shall issue an ALTA Owner’s policy (“Title Policy”) at the Close of Escrow insuring fee title in
BUYER, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions as determined hereunder, and together with
such commercially reasonable endorsements as are required by BUYER:
(c) BUYER shall notify SELLER in writing of BUYER’s disapproval of any exceptions,
encumbrances, encroachments, or other defects shown in the Preliminary Report or the Survey
(collectively, “Unpermitted Exceptions”) within fifteen (15) business days after receipt thereof, and
any title exceptions which are not Unpermitted Exceptions will be considered permitted exceptions
(“Permitted Exceptions”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
following are deemed to be Unpermitted Exceptions: (i) monetary liens affecting title; and (ii) liens
or encumbrances evidenced in any supplemental title report or additional Preliminary Title Report
(and not reflected in the Preliminary Title Report) (items in (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Mandatory
Removal Items”). SELLER shall cause Mandatory Removal Items to be removed as matters
affecting title to the Property unless BUYER expressly assumes in writing the Mandatory Removal
Items at the Close of Escrow. SELLER shall notify BUYER by the end of ten (10) business days
after receipt of BUYER’s notice which Unpermitted Exceptions (other than the Mandatory
Removal Items) that SELLER will not cure. If SELLER notifies BUYER that SELLER will not cure
certain Unpermitted Exceptions (other than the Mandatory Removal Items), BUYER may, at its
sole option, either: (i) terminate this Agreement; or (ii) elect to approve those Unpermitted
Exceptions as Permitted Exceptions (other than the Mandatory Removal Items, which will never
be deemed Permitted Exceptions). If title to the Property is not insurable subject only to the then
Permitted Exceptions and cannot be made so insurable by the date designated for the Close of
Escrow, BUYER may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement or BUYER may waive its prior
disapproval and elect to approve those Unpermitted Exception(s) as a Permitted Exception(s),
whereupon this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If BUYER elects to terminate this
Agreement because of Unpermitted Exceptions that SELLER refuses to cure, then SELLER shall
pay any cancellation fee charged by the Title Company for the Preliminary Title Report and any
escrow cancellation charges.
Section 10. “As-Is” Sale; Covenants Regarding Condition.
(a) BUYER acknowledges and agrees that the Property is being conveyed in
an “AS IS”, “WHERE IS” condition and “WITH ALL FAULTS” as of the date of this Agreement and

or income potential thereof, or as to any other fact or condition which has or might affect the
Property or the condition, repair, value, expense of operation, or income potential of the Property
or any portion thereof. BUYER further acknowledges and agrees that it has relied solely upon its
own investigations of the Property and its own review of such information and documentation as
it has deemed appropriate and is satisfied with the opportunity afforded for investigation. BUYER

representation is specifically embodied in this Agreement, or the Exhibits attached hereto. Except
as expressly set forth herein, SELLER makes no representations or warranties (1) as to whether
the Property contains any Hazardous Substances, or (2) pertaining to the extent, location, or
nature of any Hazardous Substances. Further, to the extent that SELLER has provided to BUYER
210

Owner’s Policy); (ii) the costs of the Survey and all requested title policy endorsements; (iii) the
cost of any documentary or other transfer taxes payable on account of the conveyance of the
Property to BUYER; (iv) the Escrow Agent’s fees and costs for the Escrow; (v) BUYER’s share of

the maps and other information made available to the public by government agencies for the

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 22, 2026
PREPARED BY: Chris Gerry, Senior Project Manager
SUBJECT: APPROVE WAYFINDING MASTER PLAN (PROJECT NO. MST00003)
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Citywide Wayfinding Master Plan and provide direction on the preferred naming
convention for the Palm Desert Civic Center.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
The City of Palm Desert (City) has been undertaking a comprehensive effort to update and unify
its directional and entry monument signage. Wayfinding signage assists residents and visitors
in navigating to key destinations, while entry monument signage identifies major gateways and
reinforces Palm Desert’s visual identity. This effort has included coordination with City
departments, advisory bodies, and the broader community across multiple phases. A summary
of prior meetings and key milestones is provided in Attachment 1.
On May 22, 2025, the City Council approved the wayfinding and entry monument signage design
set, establishing the preferred design direction for the Citywide Wayfinding Master Plan (Master
Plan). Since that action, staff has continued working with the design consultant to refine signage
placement, directional hierarchy, and naming conventions. The item today incorporates these
refinements and is presented for final consideration of the Master Plan (Attachment 2).
Wayfinding Framework:
The wayfinding destinations, language, and placement are guided by principles that emerged
as staff and the design consultant translated the system from concept to street -level application.
This framework reflects how signs function in real-world conditions, how information is perceived
by motorists and pedestrians, and aligns with prior City outreach and survey feedback
emphasizing clarity, simplicity, and visual cohesion. This framework includes:
Less is more, particularly along key corridors such as El Paseo . The wayfinding system
emphasizes restraint by reducing the overall number of signs and avoiding unnecessary
message density, supporting both corridor aesthetics and sign legibility.
Limit single-destination signs where feasible. Wayfinding signs are designed to prioritize
clarity by consolidating multiple related destinations on a single panel where appropriate,
reducing the number of standalone signs and minimizing visual clutter.
Use clear, concise, and consistent language. Destination names are drafted to fit on a
single line where possible, avoid compound phrasing, and maintain consistent
terminology and naming conventions across the system.

Approve Wayfinding Master Plan

Establish Civic Center as the campus identity. The Civic Center is treated as a unified
destination representing the broader civic campus, with internal wayfinding relied upon to
direct visitors to individual facilities once onsite. Naming convention concepts for the
campus are discussed later in this staff report.
Signage Quantity and System Refinement:
As the Master Plan advanced from concept to implementation, staff and the design consultant
conducted a focused review of sign quantities and placement to ensure the system functions
efficiently at the street level. This refinement emphasized consolidating messages, eliminating
redundancies, and aligning sign types with how users encounter and navigate destinations.
The proposed system reflects a more intentional distribution of destination, parking, and
pedestrian signage. Destination and parking information is consolidated where appropriate to
reduce standalone signs, while pedestrian-oriented signage is selectively introduced to support
onsite navigation in key activity areas. These adjustments improve legibility, reduce visual
clutter, and better align sign placement with user decision points. The table below summarizes
the refinement of sign types across the system.
Signage Type Existing Proposed
Destinations 67 51
Parking 11 3
Pedestrian 0 4
Total: 78 58
Destination Naming and Prioritization:
As part of finalizing the Master Plan, staff and the design consultant reviewed destination
naming, abbreviations, and prioritization to ensure clarity, consistency, and legibility across the
wayfinding system. Given physical sign size constraints and the need for quick comprehension
at travel speeds, destination names were e valuated to balance formal accuracy with practical
readability. The proposed language reflects commonly recognized destination names while
remaining aligned with official facility titles and City standards.
Destinations are organized into Primary and Secondary categories to establish a clear and
functional hierarchy within the wayfinding system. This hierarchy considers overall wayfinding
demand, sign capacity constraints, network coverage, and each destination’s role in citywide
navigation. Primary destinations represent the City’s most significant and widely accessed civic,
cultural, educational, and commercial anchors and serve as key orientation points for residents
and visitors, warranting more consistent directional emphasis across multiple corridors.
Secondary destinations may also have community recognition or cultural significance , but do not
require the same level of directional repetition. For parks and recreational facilities, sites
generally under 20 acres are generally categorized as Secon dary to maintain consistency,
manage message density, and prioritize destinations with broader wayfinding demand.
230

Primary and Secondary destinations can be found in the Master Plan (Attachment 2). As new
destinations are constructed and become operational, staff will apply these same criteria to
evaluate potential additions or refinements to the wayfinding system based on observed use
patterns, access points, and navigational needs. Any proposed changes that may be considered
substantial would be brought forward to the Active Transportation Program Subcommittee for
recommendation and to City Council for consideration.
The table below summarizes the recommended destination nomenclature, priority designation,
and frequency of inclusion within the Master Plan.

Entrada Del Paseo Entrada Del Paseo Secondary 2

Eric Johnson Memorial Gardens Eric Johnson Gardens Secondary 2
Proposed Naming Revisions:
Most of the naming conventions above remain consistent or slightly modified within the existing
wayfinding system. Notable recommended revisions include:
The Living Desert Zoo: The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens is referenced using three naming
conventions across the existing wayfinding system. Following coordination with The Living
Desert Zoo and Gardens, staff recommends the use of “The Living Desert Zoo.” This
abbreviated form maintains alignment with the organization’s identity and allows the
destination name to fit clearly and consistently within the available sign panel dimensions.
Entrada Del Paseo: While the existing wayfinding system includes destinations located within
Entrada Del Paseo, it does not reference the paseo itself, instead i dentifying individual
tenants such as the Chamber of Commerce and Artists Center. Staff recommends
incorporating “Entrada Del Paseo” as a named destination, along with Artists Center and Eric
Johnson Gardens, to better reflect the broader district, improve visitor orientation, and more
accurately represent the diverse uses at that location.
231

Approve Wayfinding Master Plan
Page 4 of 6
Palm Desert Civic Center: The existing wayfinding system references this destination as
“Civic Center / Park.” Given the breadth of civic, cultural, recreational, and community uses
located within the Civic Center campus, staff recommends simplifying the destination name
to “Civic Center.” This approach recognizes the site as a multi-use civic hub rather than a
single park facility and aligns with the Master Plan’s goal of reducing compound phrases for
visual consistency and readability. On December 10, 2025, the Active Transportation
Program Subcommittee requested additional consideration of this naming convention. In
response, staff evaluated the following options for Council consideration:
1. Retain the existing “Civic Center / Park” terminology, acknowledging its familiarity, while
noting this naming convention would represent a n exception to the Master Plan’s
approach of minimizing compound phrasing.
2. Adopt “Civic Center” as the primary destination , allowing the broader campus to be
identified at the corridor level while relying on new or existing internal wayfinding to direct
visitors to specific facilities once onsite; and
3. Consider rebranding the campus, recognizing that while the site functions as a civic
center in form, an alternative name could better reflect its evolving and diverse mix of
uses. If the City were ever to pursue renaming the campus, implementation of this Master
Plan may represent an opportune time to do so.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends approval of the Master Plan, including the proposed destination hierarchy,
naming conventions, and signage refinements. While Civic Center naming approaches are
presented for Council consideration, approval of the Master Plan is not contingent upon selecting
a final Civic Center name, and will allow staff to proceed with implementation, including
procurement and eventual construction.
Legal Review:
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Wayfinding Master Plan, along with the estimated implementation costs, is included in the
approved Fiscal Year 2025–26 Financial Plan and Capital Improvement Project (CIP) List under
Measure A and Bond Funds. Therefore, approval of the Master Plan results in no current
financial impact to the General Fund.

The fresh Palm Desert logo gives a nod to the city’s relaxed vibe with a palm leaf. The sliver of empty space between the P and D invites
visitors to come fill that gap and enjoy the low-key, palm-tree way of life. The city’s initialing — PD — emboldens the Palm Desert brand with
a youthful energy, while elevating the destination for a target audience accustomed to the statement-making ability of abbreviations (LA and
the OC). With a contemporary color palette and a welcoming font, this logo is designed to resonate with the next generation of Palm Desert
visitors and welcome returning Palm Desert guests as they rediscover one of their favorite escapes.
8 9
2.0LOGOThe Palm Desert logo can be represented as shown. There are three configurations for the logo: stacked with California, stacked without California, and horizontal.
The stacked with California logo should be
used for all out-of-state advertising. Within the
state of California, the stacked or horizontal
version without California is to be used.
The preferred color combination is sunshine
yellow for the Palm-D icon with black text. The
logo can be used in solid black or reversed
out against a solid background when the
creative layout or production specs require.
The reversed version uses the sunshine yellow
for the Palm-D icon.
When writing out the name within body copy,
always treat the city name in the following
manner: City of Palm Desert. Do not use all
caps and do not use all lower case.
These logo representations are available
in .eps, .jpg, and .png formats. The logo is
never to be recreated; the graphic asset from
the Palm Desert marketing department should
always be used.
Always ensure the Palm Desert logo has the appropriate amount of clear space when placing it next to imagery or text. The clear space for the stacked version of the logo is slightly different than the horizontal version.
STACKED LOGO
The X-height is equal to the width of the
Palm-D icon. Consistent space of the
X-height is to be kept around all edges of
the logo.
HORIZONTAL LOGO
The X-height is equal to the height of the
Palm-D icon. As noted, the proportion of
the Palm-D icon to the Palm Desert name
is different in the stacked versus horizontal
representation. Consistent space equal to
the X-height is to be kept around all edges
of the logo.

WAYFINDING MASTER PLAN 4
CONCEPT 2 MOOD BOARD
The Palm Desert signage and wayfinding system blends the timeless elegance of the desert landscape with the city’s bold,
modern energy. Drawing inspiration from the region’s natural sandstone formations, each monument incorporates textured
stone finishes that evoke the surrounding mountains and arid terrain. These classic materials are juxtaposed with bright,
vibrant panels in golden hues, reflecting the city’s radiant sun, contemporary design sensibility, and active lifestyle.
Typography, color, and form come together to create a cohesive visual language that is both highly functional and distinctly
Palm Desert. From iconic gateway monuments to intuitive vehicle and pedestrian signage, the system elevates the
experience of both residents and visitors by improving navigation while reinforcing civic pride.
More than a wayfinding program, this system is an expression of place—capturing the spirit of Palm Desert as a destination
defined by natural beauty, cultural sophistication, and vibrant community life.

The three sign types shown on this page represent the approved monument designs for Palm Desert. These monuments will
be installed at three distinct locations designated by the City of Palm Desert.
Each sign features a dual-layered design: a front sandstone element sculpted to reflect the surrounding desert landscape,
and a rear metal panel painted in alignment with the City’s branding. The metal panel will include a cut-out of the Palm
Desert logo. Integrated between the two layers is a lighting feature that casts a soft glow along the sandstone edge—evoking
the visual of a sunset behind the mountains.

The wayfinding signage is designed to align with the approved monument aesthetic, incorporating consistent City-branded
colors and a mountain graphic on the reverse side for added visual interest. Messaging will be displayed at a height of six
inches to ensure legibility on high-speed roadways, and all signage will feature the official City logo.
The pedestrian directory sign will share the same visual language as the vehicular signs, maintaining a cohesive look and
feel across the system. It will include a map and corresponding directory to support easy navigation for pedestrians.

The signage system features a combination of durable
and high-quality materials chosen for their longevity,
sustainability, and compatibility with Palm Desert’s
environment.
The use of metal panels provides a modern, resilient solution
capable of withstanding the region’s intense heat and sun
exposure, ensuring long-term performance with minimal
maintenance.
Stone offers lasting durability and low maintenance—it
resists fading, weathering, and damage from wind and
sand—making it an ideal material for long-term use
All materials have been carefully reviewed and approved
by the City of Palm Desert, and any variation from these
standards should be coordinated with City management to
maintain design integrity and consistency.

A pictogram is a symbol that indicates, signifies, or represents
an idea, object, space, activity, or relationship without the use
of words. Many of our pictograms are universally understood
and aid in wayfinding because of the clarity of their design and
recognizable meaning, thereby eliminating the need for multiple
language translations. When feasible, pictograms may be used
with an accompanying word description for maximum message
comprehension. These pictograms are the only approved symbols
for use at all City of Palm Desert facilities and shall never be
altered.

The sign location plan presented on the following pages
outlines the approved and proposed sign placements,
developed through a combination of stakeholder feedback
and the comprehensive analysis conducted at the start of
this document. These locations reflect key decision points,
circulation patterns, and visibility requirements identified
during the planning process.
The accompanying chart summarizes the recommended sign
types—previously detailed in the summary of sign types
and approved designs—and provides a breakdown of the
quantities needed to implement a complete and cohesive
wayfinding system throughout the area.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 22, 2026
PREPARED BY: Veronica Chavez, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: RESOLULTIONS ADOPTING OPERATING BUDGET POLICY, CAPITAL
PLANNING AND PRIORITIZATION POLICY, LONG-TERM FINANCIAL
PLAN POLICY, AND RESERVE POLICY CHANGES
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Adopt a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 2018-73 AND
ADOPTING A REVISED RESERVE POLICY.”
2. Adopt a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING AN OPERATING BUDGET POLICY.”
3. Adopt a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING A CAPITAL PLANNING AND
PRIORITIZATION POLICY.”
4. Adopt a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING A LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING
POLICY.”
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
On December 15, 2025, staff presented the City’s 10-Year General Fund Cash Flow Analysis,
projected demands on fiscal resources, and potential policy refinements aligned with Council
priorities and best practices. Council directed staff to return with updates to the policy and
additional information as follows:
Updates:
1. Reduce Operating Reserve amount from 25% to 10% of Revenue
2. Reduce Emergency Reserve amount from 20% to 15% of Revenue
3. Create a minimum Reserve Floor of 16.7% per GFOA best practices.
4. Add $5 million annual reserve into Economic/Community Investment Reserve with ROI
requirement for use
5. Create Productivity Savings/Innovation Reserve to encourage continuous improvement
by allowing managers to retain and reinvest productivity relate d savings in long-term
service enhancements.
Clarifications:
1. Clarification regarding the City of Rancho Mirage reserve percentage (84%).
2. Additional methods to support facility maintenance reserves and long-term capital
savings, including rollover and cap mechanisms.
3. Additional support for the static liability reserve.

4. A revised Reserve Policy incorporating Council feedback and recommended best -
practice refinements.
Coordinated Policy Package
While the December Study Session focused on the Reserve Policy, staff’s follow-up work
confirmed that reserves cannot be managed effectively in isolation. Operating budget rules,
capital planning, and long-term financial forecasting must work together to ensure reserve
targets are achievable and aligned with Council priorities. Accordingly, this report includes three
additional policies—FIN-014 (Operating Budget Policy), FIN-015 (Capital Planning and
Prioritization Policy), and FIN-016 (Long-Term Financial Planning Policy)—which complement
the updated Reserve Policy (FIN-003a). These policies reflect current practices and implement
GFOA best practices and strengthen the City’s award of distinction program submissions.
City of Rancho Mirage Reserve
The City of Rancho Mirage Reserve Policy, approved in 2013, commits static dollar amounts for
each reserve category rather than a target percentage of fund balance. The “84%” figure reflects
a point-in-time calculation: total reserve allocations divided by current fund balance. Deviations
from the 2013 reserve dollar allocations are considered and approved annually by their City
Council.
Facility Maintenance Reserves and Capital Improvement Project Reserves
Current Approach and Need for an Updated Method
Reserving for facility maintenance ensures City buildings remain in good co ndition to meet
community needs. The City currently references a 2018 Replacement Reserve Study (RRS).
However, reserve studies require periodic updating to reflect inflation, asset changes, and
evolving service demands. Updating a comprehensive study can be costly and may not be
necessary if the City adopts a simpler, policy-driven approach that can be revisited annually
through the budget process.
Recommended Facility Maintenance Reserve Method (Best Practice Model)
Staff recommends a facility reserve methodology modeled after the City of Fort Collins,
Colorado. Under this approach, the City establishes an annual facility maintenance “provision”
equal to 4% of the Replacement Value of General Fund facilities. A 4% annual provision is
commonly used as a rule of thumb to support major facility component replacement on an
approximate 25-year lifecycle basis (1 ÷ 4% = 25 years). Funds are appropriated annually
through the budget process, and unspent amounts may roll forward to support future
replacement needs.
Replacement Reserve Calculation and Threshold
To manage reserve balances responsibly, staff recommends a “target plus ceiling” threshold
model commonly used in public-sector reserve policies. Under the recommended facility
methodology, the base annual fa cility provision is 4% of replacement value. Therefore, the
facility reserve target is tied to the annual provision (assuming a 25-year lifecycle), and
thresholds are expressed as a percentage of the annual provision amount to prevent
underfunding or over-accumulation while maintaining flexibility for timing of major projects.
FY 2025-26 Estimated Replacement Value for General Fund facilities: $230,036,978
330
City of Palm Desert
Reserve and Associated Budget Policies
Page 3 of 7
Annual Facility Provision (4% of Replacement Value): $9,201,479
Using the “target plus ceiling” model, staff recommends the following thresholds for the Facility
Maintenance Reserve:
Level Purpose Metric Palm Desert
Minimum Avoid underfunding risk 30% of Annual Facility Provision $2,760,444
Target Optimal funded level 70% of Annual Facility Provision $6,441,035
Maximum
(Cap)
Prevent excess
accumulation
110% of Annual Facility Provsion $10,121,627
Under this approach, the target facilities reserve for FY 2025–26 would be $6,441,035.
Use and Rollover: Reserve funds may be used only for facility capita l replacement, major
maintenance, or related capital expenditures approved through the budget or CIP process.
Unspent amounts may carry over year to year; however, reserve balances will not exceed the
cap. If the reserve exceeds the cap, annual contributions will be paused and/or projects may be
advanced in the CIP until balances return to the target range.
At no time will the facilities reserve carry less than 30% of the replacement value for that fiscal
year.
There are other methods of establishing ceilings, however this one is more conservative and
provides staff time to assess the impact, while helping to maintain long-term financial stability.
Long Term Capital Project Funding
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the City’s prim ary tool to plan, prioritize, and fund
capital investments. While five-year CIP programs are common, staff will present the CIP in a
ten-year format to align with the City’s current project horizon and strengthen long-term planning.
The City will continue using a blend of funding sources, prioritizing restricted funds first where
legally eligible, and utilizing General Fund resources strategically.
A commonly used framework for capital funding is:
Use a capital replacement reserve to fund predictable renewals
Use the CIP for larger renovations and new assets
Use debt for major long-lived expansions when appropriate
Historically, up until 2012 the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency (RDA) largely represented
the primary funding source for capital improvement projects within the City. Following the
Dissolution of RDA (and the Great Recession), many improvements were halted as funds
became scarce and growth was slow. Most projects completed between 2012 and 2020 were
largely funded by special funds like Measure A, CVAG, former RDA bond proceeds, and more
recently transfers from the General Fund balance. Currently the City has no debt.
Common city CIP funding sources include:
General Fund transfers (for general-purpose capital)
Enterprise fund rates (water, sewer, solid waste)
331
City of Palm Desert
Reserve and Associated Budget Policies
Page 4 of 7
Development impact fees (parks, traffic, public facilities—legally restricted)
State/federal grants (transportation, water, climate)
Special taxes/assessments (voter approved)
Debt proceeds (lease revenue bonds, COPs, GO bonds)
One-time revenues (excess fund balance, property transfer tax windfalls)
Pay-Go or general fund transfers are used when necessary for projects that are recurring or
maintenance like, where adequate reserves exist, or restricted funds are unavailable (if eligible).
The updated Reserve Policy maintains a CIP contingency reserve equal to 20% of the entire
CIP Program. These funds may be used for cost overruns and/or new capital needs not currently
included in the CIP and replenished when resources are available.
Council may also consider adopting a “one-time revenue set-aside” policy in the future (e.g.,
5%–20% of one-time revenues dedicated to capital reserves), which would provide an additional
tool to support long-term capital needs.
Debt Issuance Option
Debt financing is a potential tool option to deliver major projects while maintaining desired
reserve levels. Lease revenue bonds allow the City to build infrastructure now and pay over time,
aligning costs with the useful life of the asset. Any future debt issuance would be evaluated
through the City’s debt policy and affordability analysis that considers interest costs, construction
cost escalation, and long-term financial impacts.
Minimum Total Reserve Threshold
Finally, City Council agreed to staff’s recommendation of adding a minimum threshold to the
Reserve Policy in alignment with GFOA’s recommended 16.7%. Upon further investigation, staff
recommends revising the cumulative reserve minimum to 35%. A recently published paper on
Rethinking Reserves notes that bond rating agencies require at least 35% of revenue to be held
in reserves in order to maintain an Aaa rating.
Cash Flow Projection Comparisons
Following the Study Session review, staff is providing six variations of the Ten -Year Cash Flow
Model for consideration:
1. As Is – No Changes to Policy
2. Revised Policy based on Recommended Changes
3. Adds CIP Costs across 10 Years (vs. 5-Year Model) to reflect reality
4. Adds Reserve for HA Properties
5. Adds removal of Regional Park Costs
6. Add a Financing Component

Although the net effect of the recommended changes to the reserve policy are not extensive, it
does provide opportunities to invest in the community and ultimately our revenue streams. S taff
will continue to evaluate needs and research optimal reserve levels and best practices to ensure
the City is maintaining financial stability, as well as maximizing flexibility to recognize opportunity
costs while reserving the need for debt issuance.
Staff recommends adoption of FIN-003a, FIN-014, FIN-015, and FIN-016 as presented. Staff will
review these policies annually during the budget process and return to City Council with reserve
and compliance reporting as appropriate. Staff intends to return with a separate item for Council
consideration to formally adopt a policy establishing reserve requirements for revenue -sensitive
Special Funds and Enterprise Funds.
Legal Review:
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no immediate impact to the General Fund with this action. While the policy amendment
will adjust reserve allocations within fund balance, it does not change total fund balance. The
additional policies codify operating budget practices, establish capital prioritization criteria, and
strengthen long-term planning requirements.
Staff would like to note that several additional big projects are not currently included in the CIP
Plan but remain in the queue for future consideration. Once prioritized and upon availability of
funding they will be added:

Policy
Authored by Finance Department
I. PURPOSE
To outline the policy and procedures for establishing reserves for long-term city
infrastructure needs, economic uncertainties, economic development, emergency
reserve, equipment replacement, productivity savings and innovation, pension and other
post employmentpost-employment obligations.
This policy will also set guidelines and priorities for the distribution of excess revenue at
the end of each fiscal year to assist in funding and replenishing the identified reserve
categories as well as ensuring that funds for current operating needs are available. This
Policy will help the City ensure stable service delivery.
II. SCOPE
The City utilizes a variety of Government funds for reporting and budgeting revenues and
expenditures of the City which are separated broadly by three fund types: governmental
funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds. This policy will pertain only to governmental
funds and proprietary funds since fiduciary funds are held in trust for others.
Governmental funds include the General Fund, Special Revenue funds, Debt Service
funds and Capital Project funds. Proprietary funds include Enterprise funds and Internal
Service funds.
To effectively utilize and maintain adequate reserves for both known and unknown
contingencies, this policy establishes reserve categories based on the hierarchy of the
City’s needs and risks:
1. General Fund Operating Reserve
2. Contingency/Emergency Reserve
3. Facilities Maintenance Reserve
4. Capital Improvement Projects Reserve
5. Liability Reserve
6. Employment Benefits Reserve
7. Other Fund Stability Reserve
8. Equipment Replacement Reserve

considered a liability to the City consistent with this category, or to pay any
contribution or premium to the pool on behalf of the City.
i. Other Fund Stability Reserve – A reserve for transfers to funds from the General
Fund to cover expenses.
IV.V. ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) suggests that as a best practice,
cities should consider their own unique circumstances in order to determine adequate
reserves. This includes assessing the needs of the City as well as the uncertainties that
could impact the City’s revenues and fund balance
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASB) No. 54 defines five
specific classifications of fund balance. The five classifications are intended to identify
whether the specific components of fund balance are available for appropriation (or
available to reserve) and are therefore “Spendable.” The classifications are also
intended to identify the extent to which fund balance is constrained by special
restrictions. The five classifications2 of fund balance for governmental funds are as
follows:
CLASSIFICATIONS NATURE OF RESTRICTION
Non-spendable Cannot be readily converted to cash
Restricted Externally imposed restrictions
Committed City Council imposed commitment
Assigned City Manager assigned purpose/intent
Unassigned Residual balance not otherwise restricted
2 Nonspendable Fund Balance (inherently nonspendable) – Assets that cannot be converted to cash (i.e., prepaid items and
inventories of supplies) and assets that will not be co nverted to cash soon enough to affect the current period. Examples of non -
spendable fund balance are reserves for long term receivables and advances, prepaid assets, City’s financial assets which are not
due to be received for an extended period, so are not available for appropriation during the budget year.
Restricted Fund Balance (externally enforceable limitations on use) – Limitations imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or
laws and regulations of other governments and limitations imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Examples of restricted fund balance are reserves for debt service, developer impact fee, capital bonds and grants.
Committed Fund Balance (self-imposed limitations on use set in place prior to the end of the fiscal year) – Limitation imposed at
the highest level of decision making that requires formal action at the same level to remove (City Council). Examples of committed
fund balance are the aquatic center, energy loan programs and the ho using authority capital asset replacement.
Assigned Fund Balance (limitation resulting from intended use) – Intended use is established by highest level of decision making,
then may be implemented by an official designated for that purpose (delegated by the City Council to the City Manager). Examples
of assigned fund balance are the library fund, building maintenance fund, capital project reserve fund, and economic development
fund.
Unassigned Fund Balance (residual net resources) – Excess of nonspendable, restricted, committed, and assigned total fund
balance. Unassigned Fund Balance reserves are residual positive net resources in excess of what can properly be classified in one
of the other four components. Unassigned General Fund Balance (unobligated general fund reserves) and can be used for any lawful
purpose.

This Policy is focused only on the reserve designations that will be Committed, Assigned
or identified in Unassigned. Non-spendable and Restricted classifications will be
excluded because they are subject to requirements outside the City’s control. The City
will, however, consider restricted fund balance as spent first when both restricted and
unrestricted fund balances are available.

V. RESERVE FUNDING POLICIES
The primary goal of the Policy is to identify and reserve, adequate resources for
operational liquidity, future needs and any uncertainties that might affect the City’s fund
balance. The Policy includes broad reserve categories that are meant to be as inclusive
as possible, yet flexible enough to address needs or risks as they arise. Each reserve
category may include multiple funds some of which may have a restricted fund balance
component. At the discretion of the City Manager, monies held in reserve may be used in
any year when the General Fund is not balanced in order to offset operating costs
consistent with these reserve categories.
The identified reserve funding policies are as follows:
1. General Fund Operating Reserve – On June 30, the Finance Director shall set
aside twenty fiveten percent (2510%) of the projected annual General Fund
expenditures. Withdrawals are permitted following an economic contraction,
defined as two consecutive quarters of declining “real Gross Domestic
Product/GDP” (GDP adjusted for inflation). This reserve will be adjusted at the
end of each fiscal year to the recommended level based on the next year’s
projected expenditures. This reserve will be classified in fund balance as
ASSIGNED.
2. Contingency/Emergency Reserve – At the beginning of each fiscal year, the
Finance Director shall reserve an amount equal to twenty fifteen percent (2015%)3
of the projected annual General Fund revenues. Withdrawals are permitted if a
severe emergency, such as a natural disaster accompanied by significant,
unanticipated revenue loss or expenditure needs occur. Withdrawals would need
to commence within 12 months of the triggering event and could continue until tax
revenues exceed pre-contraction levels, if that is the case. This reserve will be
adjusted at the beginning of each fiscal year to the recommended level based on
that year’s projected revenues. This reserve will be classified in fund balance as
COMMITTED.
3. Facilities Maintenance Reserve – Upon the approval of this policy, the Finance
Director is directed to commit the amount identified in the Capital Replacement
Reserve Study, as the initial deposit, less amounts available from other funding
sources to this reserve. The policy designated goal for funding this reserve, will
be between sixty and one hundredseventy percent (60-1070%) of the ‘Fully
Funded’annual calculated replacement value amount in the Capital Replacement
Reserve Study. The annual recommended funding amount identified in the Capital
Replacement Reserve Study will be considered as part of the annual budget. The
3 After the financial crisis in 2008 the fluctuation in the City’s revenue was approximately twenty percent (20%) of the 2007-08 budget
or $11 million dollars. While the City also reduced its budget at that time to offset the reduction in revenues to the extent possible, the
core services were still rising. It took approximately eight years to reestablish the revenue base to pre-2008 levels. Based on these
actual events staff believes that 20% of the annual operating revenue would be prudent as a reserve, with a consideration to review
from time to time as information becomes available to the City that might suggest the amount to be incr eased.

replacement value will be determined each by the total balance of facilities in the
General Fixed Assets Fund 980. The minimum reserve will be calculated at 30%,
with the maximum cumulative reserve balance not to exceed 110% of the annual
calculated replacement value. Residual balances each year may be carried over
up to the 110% ceiling. This reserve will be classified in fund balance as
COMMITTED.
4. Capital Improvement Projects Reserve – At the financial closing of each fiscal year,
the Finance Director shall set aside twenty percent (20%) of the total Capital
Improvement Program projects for the next five years. The Finance Director will
adjust this amount annually to the policy designated level plus any additional
amounts so directed by the City Council under Section VI of this policy. This
reserve will be classified in fund balance as both RESTRICTED and COMMITTED
depending on the project funding. Unless otherwise specified, at such time as a
project or any portion thereof has been awarde d the amount will be allocated
(committed) to the project and will not be available for other projects.
5. Liability Reserve -- The Finance Director shall commit at least the pooled retention
requirement for both Liability and Workers’ Compensation, which is currently $4
million ($2 million each). This amount may be adjusted annually in accordance with
the minimum threshold requirements in CJPIA’s Memorandum of Coverage. This
reserve will be classified in fund balance as COMMITTED.
6. Employment Benefits Reserve – Internal Service Funds have been established for
the purpose of reserving monies for compensated balances and Other Post-
Employment Benefits (OPEB). On June 30 of each year, the Finance Director
shall set aside one hundred percent (100%) of the compensable accrued unused
vacation, sick leave, and compensatory time and the current year’s OPEB
requirements to the appropriate internal service funds. This amount will be
COMMITTED. The Finance Director shall also set aside fifty percent (50%) of a
one percent (1%) difference in the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS)
discount rate. This amount will be COMMITTED in the General Fund.
7. Other Fund Stability Reserve - Upon the approval of this policy, the Finance
Director shall be directed to commit $3.3 million to this reserve. At the end of each
fiscal year, the Finance Director shall adjust the amount to be the projected annual
transfers to other funds. These funds may either be committed and transferred at
the beginning of the Fiscal Year (and trued up at year-end) or is a reserve will be
classified in fund balance as COMMITTED.
8. Equipment Replacement Reserve – An Internal Service Fund has been
established for the purpose of equipment replacement. At the financial closing of
each fiscal year, the Finance Director shall adjust this reserve to be at least 100%
of the total historical cost of equipment assets as noted in the CACFR and may

include amounts set aside in excess of 100% for any approved one-time
expenditures. This reserve will be classified in fund balance as COMMITTED.
9. Economic Development/Land AcquisitionCommunity Investment Reserve -- Upon
approval of this Policy, the Director of Finance shall deposit an additional
$4,000,000 as a reserve for land/property acquisitions. In addition, w To ensure
reinvestment in the community, a dedicated Economic/Community Investment
Reserve will be created in an annual amount of $5,000,000 supported by a
structured, measurable allocation of limited fund balance. Any project utilizing
these reserved funds would need to demonstrate a minimum expected ROI within
five years that meets or exceeds the benchmark currently used for City
investments, the Five-Year Treasury Bill rate to be viable investments paid from
this reserve. Unused annual reserve amounts may accumulate for four years and
then must be returned to fund balance as UNASSIGNED. As the City builds out,
this amount may be adjusted and funds reallocated where needed with City
Council approval. Additionally, within a reasonable amount of time from when the
City receives its share of the proceeds of the former redevelopment agency’s land
sales, from the County of Riverside, the Finance Director shall commit the City’s
share to this reserve. This reserve will be classified in fund balance as
COMMITTED.
9.10.
Productivity Savings/Innovation Reserve
This reserve concept is a modern, incentive-based approach to support innovation
and operational efficiency across City departments. The reserve encourages
continuous improvement and high performance by allowing General Fund
managers to retain and reinvest productivity-related savings in long-term service
enhancements. Eligible productivity savings would be separately tracked by the
department or division that generated them. Requests for use of accumulated
savings could be submitted to the City Manager at any point during the second half
of the fiscal year. Any savings not utilized or requested would roll back into the
General Fund balance at year-end. This reserve will be classified in fund balance
as ASSIGNED.

VI. CITY COUNCIL DESIGNATION OF RESERVES AND MINIMUM THRESHOLD
The City Council will take action to COMMIT fund balance and unless otherwise specified
in this Policy, hereby designates the City Manager or his/her designee to ASSIGN fund
balance when appropriate. The City Council may designate portions of General Fund
unassigned or unobligated fund balance for any other municipal purpose that the City
Council deems prudent or necessary. At no time will the City’s cumulative Reserve
Balance dip below 35% of annual revenue. This measure meets both bond rating
requirements for Aaa rating and the suggested minimum of 16.7% of revenue, as
suggested by GFOA’s best practices without unanimous City Council approval.
VII. ANNUAL DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS REVENUE
The distribution of excess revenue at the end of each fiscal year will be according to the
following guidelines and priorities. Excess revenue, for purposes of this Policy, is the
difference between revenues and expenses in the General Fund at the end of a fiscal
year after all required transfers are made to other funds.
The priority for distributing or reserving excess revenue at year end is as follows:
1. All excess revenue shall first be used to replenish the General Fund Operating
Reserve until it reaches the Policy designated level.
2. The amount necessary to reserve for continuing appropriations and encumbrances
that are not funded by other methods, if any.
3. The amount necessary to fund an adequate reserve for potential liabilities,
compensated absences, and other post-employment benefits to be paid during the
next fiscal year that are not funded by other methods, if any.
4. The amount necessary to fund the Contingency/Emergency Reserve to maintain
General Fund operations, service delivery and budgetary stabilization in the event
of an unexpected change in financial condition4 or public emergency. Or, if there
is insufficient amounts available to fully fund the Contingency/Emergency Reserve,
an amount necessary to temporarily reserve for any known and/or anticipated
economic downturns during the next fiscal year that are expected to be more than
three percent (3%) of the previous year’s General Fund revenues.
5. Other considerations for the allocation of excess revenues will be at the discretion
4 An unexpected change in financial condition could include things such as the economic crisis in 2008, a loss or delay of a ma jor
revenue source, a natural disaster, liabilities not covered by insurance, or change in the pension discount rate for the City’s unfunded
pension liability.

VIII. REPLENISHMENT OF RESERVES
After consideration of the use of excess revenue in Section VI., the City Manager will
annually review the level of each approved reserve category, and after determining what
is reasonably necessary and appropriate for the City’s needs, may direct replenishment
of critical reserves (General Fund Operating Reserve and Contingency/Emergency
Reserve) from other reserves or may assign any remaining excess revenues accordingly.
If a transfer is required from one reserve to another, the City Manager shall notify the City
Council at the next regularly scheduled City Council meeting of such transfer.
When reserves are used for any intended purpose, or as allowed under this policy, and a
replenishment source is not identified at the time of use, the City Manager will advise the
City Council during the annual budget process as to the status of reserves including any
recommendations for replenishment.
IX. COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices, all
classifications of General Fund fund balance will appear in the Notes to Financial
Statements of the CACFR and be classified in accordance with GASB 54.

STAFF REPORT
TO: City Council DATE: March 10, 2015
FROM: Isaiah Hagerman, Finance Director
SUBJECT: General Fund Reserve Balances
SPECIFIC REQUEST OR RECOMMENDATION:
Consideration of Resolution No. 2015- , approving commitment of certain
reserves for specified purposes consistent with the fund balance policy
JUSTIFICATION OR INFORMATION:
Annually the Budget Subcommittee, which consists of Mayor Pro Tem Hobart
and Councilman Kite, and staff performs a review of the General Fund
reserves, in accordance with the City's Fund Balance Policy and
professional standards set by the Governmental Accounting Standards
Board (GASB). Funds may be committed by City Council. Funds may also be
uncommitted by either fulfilling the commitment or by resolution
approved by City Council. Each commitment of fund balance must meet a
specific level of specificity to be classified as committed fund
balance. Currently, City Council has established seven reserves for the
General Fund: Prudent Reserve, Disaster Recovery Reserve, Capital
Projects Reserve, Economic Development Reserve, Ritz Spa Suite Reserve,
Section 19 Water Reserve, and the Rancho Mirage Public Library Reserve.
Based on the review, a reduction of $4,000,000 in the Disaster Recovery
Reserve and a reduction of $3,600,000 in the Economic Development
Reserve are being requested. All other reserves will stay at their
current amounts.
The reductions in the Disaster Recovery and Economic Development
reserves will free up fund balance to ensure the City has sufficient
unassigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is used to account for
any remaining fund balance that isn't reserved for a specific purpose.
Unassigned fund balance was significantly reduced to make the General
Fund's share of the Ca1PERS pension payment. In addition, the City
Council will be considering the use of unassigned fund balance to retire
the 2005A Lease Revenue Bonds. The table below summarizes the recent
history of our reserves.

CITY OF RANCHO MIRAGE
FUND BALANCE POLICY
I. Effective date of policy
This policy is effective upon adoption by City Council.
II. Purpose
In February 2009, the Governmental Accounting Standards
Board (GASB) issued GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance
Reporting and Governmental .Fund Type Definitions (Statement
54). Statement 54 is designed to improve the reporting of
fund balance and to establish a hierarchy of fund balance
classifications based primarily on the extent to which
governments are bound by constraints on resources reported
in the funds. This policy will establish the procedures
for reporting, within the annual financial statements,
unrestricted fund balance (comprised of Committed,
Assigned, and Unassigned categories) within the City's
governmental funds. Statement 54 only applies to reporting
of governmental funds and does not impact Enterprise,
Internal Service, or Fiduciary Funds.
III. Definitions:
Fund balance refers to the difference between assets and
liabilities reported in the City's governmental funds.
Generally there are limitations on the purpose for which
all or a portion of the resources of a governmental fund
may be used. The force behind these limitations can vary
significantly, depending upon their source. Under
Statement 54 the fund balance reported in the annual
financial statements is categorized into five components
whereby each component identifies the extent to which the
City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes
for which amounts in the .fund can be spent. All five
components of fund balance will not always be used in any
given fiscal year. The five components of fund balance are
as follows.
Nonspendable: Resources that are 1) not in spendable
form, such as inventories, prepaids, long-term
receivables, or non-financial assets held for resale, or
2) required to be maintained intact such as an endowment.
1
5-12 392
Restricted: Resources that are subject to externally
enforceable legal restrictions; these restrictions would
be either 1) externally imposed by creditors (such as
through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws
or regulations of other governments or 2) imposed by law
through constitutional provisions or enabling
legislation.
Committed: Resources that are constrained to specific
purposes by a formal action of the City Council by
resolution. The constraint remains binding unless
removed or changed in the same formal manner by the City
Council. Council action to commit fund balance must
occur within the fiscal reporting period while the
calculation of the committed balance may be determined
subsequently.
Assigned: For the General Fund, amounts constrained for
the intent to be used for a specific purpose, but that
are neither restricted nor committed. Intent can be
expressed by the City Council or by an official or body
to which the Council delegates the authority. Amount
reported as assigned should not result in a deficit in
unassigned fund balance. For all governmental funds
other than the general fund, any remaining positive
amounts not classified as nonspendable, restricted or
committed.
Unassigned: Within the General Fund, the residual
resources, either positive or negative, in excess of what
can be properly classified as nonspendable, restricted,
committed or assigned. The General Fund is the only fund
that would report a positive amount in unassigned fund
balance. For all governmental funds other than the
General Fund, amount expended in excess of resources that
are nonspendable, restricted or committed (a residual
deficit). In determining a residual deficit, no amount
should be reported as assigned.
5-13 393
IV. Policy:
1. When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which
both restricted and unrestricted (committed, assigned, or
unassigned) fund balances are available, the City's
policy is to first apply restricted fund balance. When
expenditures are incurred for purposes for which
committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are
available, the City's policy is to first apply committed
fund balance, then assigned fund balance, and finally
unassigned fund balance.
2. This policy delegates to the City Manager the authority
to assign unrestricted fund balance amounts where the
City's intent is for those amounts to be used for
specific purposes. This delegation of authority is for
the sole purpose of reporting these amounts in the annual
financial statements.
3. The City Council, as the highest level of decision-making
authority, may commit fund balance for specific purposes
pursuant to constraints imposed by resolution. For the
commitment of fund balance, resolution is the highest
form of action. These committed amounts cannot be used
for any other purpose unless the City Council removes or
changes the specified use or amount through the same type
of formal action taken to establish the commitment. City
Council action to commit fund balance needs to occur
within the fiscal reporting period; but the amount, if
any, which will be subject to .the constraint, may be
determined at a subsequent period.
This policy has been prepared in accordance with Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54. No other
policy or procedure supersedes the authority and provisions of
this policy.

Nonspendable: Resources that are 1) not in spendable
form, such as inventories, - prepaids, long-term
receivables, or non-financial assets held for resale, or
2) required to be maintained intact such as an endowment.
1
5-21 401
Restricted: Resources that are subject to externally
enforceable legal restrictions; these restrictions would
be either 1) externally imposed by creditors (such as
through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws
or regulations of other governments or 2) imposed by law
through constitutional provisions or enabling
legislation.
Committed: Resources that are constrained to specific
purposes by a formal action of the City Council by
resolution. The constraint remains binding unless
removed or changed in the same formal manner by the City
Council. Council action to commit fund balance must
occur within the fiscal reporting period while the
calculation of the committed balance may be determined
subsequently.
Assigned: For the General Fund, amounts constrained for
the intent to be used for a specific purpose, but that
are neither restricted nor committed. Intent can be
expressed by the City Council or by an official or body
to which the Council delegates the authority. Amount
reported as assigned should not result in a deficit in
unassigned fund balance. For all governmental funds
other than the general fund, any remaining positive
amounts not classified as nonspendable, restricted or
committed.
Unassigned: Within the General Fund, the residual
resources, either positive or negative, in excess of what
can be properly classified as nonspendable, restricted,
committed or assigned. The General Fund is the only fund
that would report a positive amount in unassigned fund
balance. For all governmental funds other than the
General Fund, amount expended in excess of resources that
are nonspendable, restricted or committed (a residual
deficit). In determining a residual deficit, no amount
should be reported as assigned.
5-22 402
IV. Policy:
1. When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which
both restricted and unrestricted (committed, assigned, or
unassigned) fund balances are available, the City's
policy is to first apply restricted fund balance. When
expenditures are incurred for purposes for which
committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are
available, the City's policy is to first apply committed
fund balance, then assigned fund balance, and finally
unassigned fund balance.
2. This policy delegates to the City Manager the authority
to assign unrestricted fund balance amounts where the
City's intent is for those amounts to be used for
specific purposes. This delegation of authority is for
the sole purpose of reporting these amounts in the annual
financial statements.
3 The City Council, as the highest level of decision-making
authority, may commit fund balance for specific purposes
pursuant to constraints imposed by resolution. For the
commitment of fund balance, resolution is the highest
form of action. These committed amounts cannot be used
for any other purpose unless the City Council removes or
changes the specified use or amount through the same type
of formal action taken to establish the commitment. City
Council action to commit fund balance needs to occur
within the fiscal reporting period; but the amount, if
any, which will be subject to _the constraint, may be
determined at a subsequent period.
This policy has been prepared in accordance with Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54. No other
policy or procedure supersedes the authority and provisions of
this policy.

purposes. In the event the actual amount required for deposit into the
escrow account is less than the $5.125 million commitment, the remaining
amount will cease to be committed and revert back to unassigned fund
balance.

Date Issued: January 22, 2026
Approved by Resolution No. 2026- ___ Authorizing a Capital
Planning and Prioritization Policy
Authored by Finance Department
I. PURPOSE
A Capital Plan (Capital Improvement Program) is a multi-year financial plan that lists and
describes capital projects a local government plans to undertake, indicates how projects will be
funded and projects the effect of the plan on key financial variables. The CIP reflects the City’s
financial plan for repair, replacement, rehabilitation, and construction of municipal infrastructure
and major assets that enhance value, prolong useful life, or adapt assets to new uses.
A Capital Project results in the acquisition or increased value of a capital asset (e.g. land, land
improvements, infrastructure and equipment, etc.).
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends that state and local
governments prepare and adopt comprehensive, fiscally sustainable, multi-year capital plans. A
multi-year capital plan is intended to identify and prioritize expected capital needs based on
strategic priorities and operational needs, establish project scope and cost, detail estimated
amounts of funding from various sources, and project future operating and maintenance costs.
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) also recommends that state and local
governments establish an objective process for prioritizing capital improvement projects, to give
decision-makers a basis for choosing the most compelling projects for funding and
implementation.
II. POLICY STATEMENT
The City shall adopt a multi-year Capital Plan spanning at least five years in conjunction with
the annual budget and five-year financial planning processes. The Capital Plan should include
all of the City’s planned capital projects. To qualify as a capital project, the asset must comply
with Administrative Policy No. FIN-008 Capital Asset Management, Section V.
The Capital Plan should incorporate the following elements as relevant and appropriate:
a. Assessment of the physical condition of existing capital assets;
b. Economic development projections, strategic plans, comprehensive plans, facility
master plans and regional plans, including changes in federal, state, and county policy
and regulations;
c. Prioritization of capital needs; and
d. Financial strategies and sources of funding: 1) for the acquisition or improvements
associated with the project, and 2) for the subsequent annual operation and
maintenance costs of the capital asset throughout its life.
427
III. PRIORITIZATION OF CAPITAL NEEDS
The City shall adopt an objective process of prioritizing capital improvement projects to
ensure consistency with the General Plan, and in conjunction with the annual budget
process or otherwise as capital funding becomes available, using the following factors:
1. Risk to Health, Safety and Environment:
a. Avoids or minimizes the risk to health, safety and environment associated with
the infrastructure based on condition assessment of the asset, or the lack of
an asset, that may include the age, size, material, capacity, and history of
failure of the infrastructure; and
b. Urgency of the project to reduce the potential hazards to the public, property
and environment.
2. Regulatory or Mandated Requirements:
a. Projects required to meet federal, state, or local laws; regulatory agency requirements;
permit conditions; settlement agreements; grant conditions; or adopted codes and
standards.
b. These projects are prioritized ahead of discretionary projects due to legal, operational,
and liability impacts.
c. Departments must provide supporting documentation identifying the requirement,
compliance deadline (if applicable), and consequences of noncompliance.
3. By legal mandate or consent decree;
a. By other regulatory requirements (project specific or programmatic), and
b. Must comply with court orders and settlements or avoids plausible legal claims.
4. Asset Condition, Annual Recurring Costs and Asset Longevity:
a. Existing conditions and capacity to meet the basic level of service is deficient;
b. Avoids potential failure due to substandard conditions;
c. Improves the overall reliability of the capital asset and infrastructure system;
d. Major implications of delaying the project such as significant future costs, or
negative community impacts;
e. Extent to which reduces City operations and maintenance expenditures; and
f. Increases the longevity of the capital asset or extends the useful life of the
asset in the long term.
5. Community Investment and Economic Prosperity:
a. Contributes toward economic development and revitalization efforts;
b. Reduces or avoids impacts to the community when infrastructure fails;
c. Benefits under-served communities including those with low income
households, low community engagement and low mobility or access to
transportation systems; and
d. Located in a census tract that is deemed eligible for Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
6. Level and Quality of Service:
a. Improves existing conditions and capacity to meet the minimum level and
quality of services that is deficient;
b. Addresses an infrastructure or facility deficit identified in a community plan; and
c. Addresses the need to install new facilities or improve existing facilities to
provide access to City services
428
7. Sustainability and Conservation:
Improves the health of the community and natural environment through
sustainable designs with improved regional air quality and reduced
greenhouse gas emission that contributes to climate change.
8. Funding Availability:
Rank is increased based on assessment of the amount of funding needed to
complete the current project phase and the entire project.
9. Project Readiness:
a. Ready to enter the phase corresponding to the funding proposed;
b. Delivered most expeditiously shall be preferred; and
c. Complex environmental issues or known significant legal challenges shall be
scored lower than projects without said complications.
10. Multiple Category Benefit and Bundling Opportunities:
a. Fulfills the prioritization factors described above across multiple scoring categories;
b. Reduces construction costs by potentially bundling with adjacent projects; and
c. Provides for partnering or bundling opportunities with other local, state, or federal
agencies (e.g. leverages shared resources).
Implementation of this Policy is not intended to release or alter the City’s current or future
obligations to complete specific capital improvement projects by specified deadlines, as may
be imposed by court order, or order of any federal, state or local regulatory agency.

Date Issued: January 22, 2026
Approved by Resolution No. 2026- ___ Authorizing a Long Term
Financial Planning Policy
Authored by Finance Department
I. PURPOSE
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends that governments
adopt a long-term financial plan of at least five years into the future. A long -term financial
planning policy is intended to assist City leaders (elected officials and City management)
in making prudent and informed financial decisions regarding economic development, tax
policy and labor negotiations. Credit rating agencies encourage long-term financial
planning and generally favor government entities with such plans when assigning bond
ratings.
II. POLICY:
The City shall adopt a long-term financial plan spanning at least five years for all major
City funds (e.g., General, Fire, Housing Authority, Desert Willow, etc.) in conjunction
with the proposed annual budget. The long-term financial plan should incorporate the
following elements as relevant and appropriate:
An analysis of economic and demographic data at the national, state and local
level;
Past revenue and expenditure trends;
Forecast assumptions;
Forecasts of major revenues and expenditures based on known data,
documented assumptions, and input from subject matter experts, and various
internal and external stakeholders; and
Compliance with existing City fiscal policies.

Reserve Recap
Ten-Year General Fund projections reflect relatively balanced operating
revenues and expenditures based on current estimates.
Challenges remain in meeting current reserve policy requirements. Staff
continues to assess and refine optimal reserve targets to mitigate financial
risks.
Staff presented proposed reserve policy updates to better align reserve
levels with best practices, historical cost trends, community investment
priorities, and the City’s risk tolerance.
Council expressed support of many of the proposed recommendations and
requested additional clarification on select items.
Staff is returning with the proposed policy updates, the additional
information requested by Council, and three additional budget policies to
ensure alignment with reserve capacity and City Council goals.
438
•Reduce Operating Reserve: 25% → 10% of revenue
•Reduce Emergency Reserve: 20% → 15% of revenue
•Set minimum reserve floor: 35% of annual revenue
•$5M/yr Economic & Community Investment Reserve
(ROI required for use)
•Create Productivity Savings / Innovation Reserve
(Reinvest savings/advance future projects)
Key Updates Directed by Council
•City of RM Reserve percentage (as compared to other cities)
•Facility Maintenance Reserve/Long-term capital planning
methods
•Support for static liability reserve (policy updated to coincide with
CJPIA changes).

(FIN-014)
Purpose: keep the budget
structurally balanced and
aligned with priorities
Policy Goals
•Adopt and maintain a balanced operating budget

operations)
•Use ongoing revenues to fund ongoing programs
•Limit reliance on one-time money for recurring costs
Why it’s Necessary
•Annual budget approval is the primary financial control tool

deferrals, re-prioritization)
•Coordinate with reserve thresholds and long-term forecast before
expanding services
441
Policy: Capital Planning &
Prioritization (FIN-015)
Purpose: prioritize and fund
capital projects consistently
and transparently
Policy Goals
•Plan capital needs over a 10-year horizon
•Prioritize projects using clear criteria
•Match projects to the best funding source (restricted first where
eligible)
•Maintain assets to protect service quality and reduce long-term
costs
Funding & Controls
•Use facility maintenance reserves for predictable replacements
•Use CIP for larger renovations and new assets
•Maintain CIP contingency reserve = 20% of the CIP program
•Consider debt only for major long-lived assets when appropriate
442
Policy: Long-Term Financial
Planning (FIN-016)
Purpose: anticipate trends,
risks, and obligations before
they become budget problems
Policy Goals
•Maintain a 10-year forecast to inform decisions
•Identify and manage structural gaps early
•Plan for major obligations (pension/OPEB, capital, service levels)
•Support long-range policy decisions and Council priorities
What Success Looks Like
•Reserve minimums and policy targets are achievable
•Capital program is realistic and financially sustainable
•Community investment is intentional and measurable
•Budget decisions reflect long-term affordability (not just one-year
balance)
443
Staff Recommendation:
Adopt Updated Reserve Policy (FIN-003A)
Adopt Operating Budget Policy (FIN-014)
Adopt Capital Planning and Prioritization Policy (FIN-015)
Adopt Long-Term Planning Policy (FIN-016)

SUBJECT: APPROVE OUTSIDE AGENCY FUNDING COMMITTEE
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PROGRAM YEAR 2026-27
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT ANNUAL ACTION PLAN
AND REALLOCATE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
FUNDS FOR PROGRAM YEARS 2023 AND 2024
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Conduct a public hearing and accept public comment to consider Substantial Amendments
to the PY 2023 and PY 2024 CDBG Annual Action Plans.
2. Adopt a Substantial Amendment to PY 2023 to reallocate $50,000 in unused CDBG funds to

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
The City of Palm Desert receives annual CDBG funds from HUD to support eligible public
services and capital improvement projects benefiting low- and moderate-income residents. As
part of routine program oversight, the City reviews prior-year CDBG projects to ensure
compliance with HUD requirements, including timely expenditure of funds.
This review identified unspent funds from prior program years resulting from cost savings, scope
changes, or alternative funding sources. To remain compliant with HUD timeliness requirements
and ensure effective use of CDBG resources, these funds must be reallocated. The following
section describes the City’s Substantial Amendment Reallocation Strategy for addressing these
prior-year balances.

Substantial Amendment Reallocation Strategy
Over time, some CDBG-funded projects may not fully expend awarded funds due to cost
savings, scope changes, or the availability of alternative funding sources. To remain compliant
with HUD timeliness requirements, unspent funds must be reallocated.
The City has identified $130,000 in unspent CDBG funds from prior program years including
Program Year 2023-2024 (PY 2023) and Program Year 2024-2025 (PY 2024). In consultation
with the City's CDBG consultant and County HWS, staff developed a reallocation plan for City
Council consideration. Pursuant to the City's Citizen Participation Plan, a Substantial
Amendment is required when reallocating $25,000 or more, or when adding or removing a
project.

By reallocating $130,000 in unspent CDBG funds from prior program years to PY 2026 for Desert
ARC, the City will direct additional resources toward public facilities and improvements meeting
the criteria of HUD national objectives.
Project Year 2026-27 - Outside Agency Committee Recommendations
The Outside Agency Committee, comprised of the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, City Manager,
Finance Director, and Deputy Director of Economic Development, reviewed the PY 2026–27
CDBG applications and funding priorities. Each application was evaluated for consistency with
HUD national objectives and the intended purpose of CDBG funds; when an application did not
meet eligibility requirements, the reason was documented in the CDBG Funding
Recommendations Budget Summary. The Committee recommends approval of the PY 2026 –
27 CDBG budget in accordance with HUD requirements and the City’s anticipated allocation.
448
City of Palm Desert
Approve PY 2026-27 CDBG Recommendations and Reallocate Funds for PYs 2023 and 2024
Page 3 of 5
The City anticipates receiving $365,400 in CDBG funds for FY 2026–27, which will be included
in the Proposed Annual Budget. Federal regulations limit public services to 15% ($54,810) and
program administration to 20% ($73,080) of the award; there are no funding caps for public
facilities and improvements.
To achieve significant cost savings in program management, the City Council approved the Joint
Recipient Cooperative Agreement with the County HWS on June 8, 2023. This agreement
designates the City as a Metro City participant and transfers responsibility for the general
administration of grant funds and the submission of all required reports to HUD from County
HWS.
County HWS requires PY 2026-27 CDBG applications to be submitted to the County Board of
Supervisors for approval in January 2026. To meet the County's HWS December 18, 2025,
submittal deadline, the City opened its local application period on October 15, 2025, with a
published deadline of November 15, 2025. Because the deadline fell on a Saturday, applications
were accepted through the next business day, November 17, 2025.
County HWS has acknowledged and agreed with the City Council’s January 2026 approval
timeline. Notice of Funding Availability was posted on the City’s CDBG webpage, published in
The Desert Sun, and distributed directly to prior recipients and interested organizations via email
and phone outreach.
The City received six (6) applications. The County conducted the initial eligibility review,
determining that three applications did not meet national objective requirements. The remaining
three (3) applications were evaluated by the Committee, and funding recommendations were
developed based on their eligibility. Applications that did not meet the national objective criteria are
listed individually in the table with a $0 funding recommendation.
Of the three applications recommended for funding, two applicants, Joslyn Center and Desert
ARC, are located within the City of Palm Desert and have received CDBG funding in prior years.
Operation SafeHouse, Inc., located in Thousand Palms operates the Harrison House
Transitional Living Program, which serves 10 unduplicated homeless youth ages 18–24, and
have also received CDBG funding in prior years. The Harrison House program provides an 18-
month transitional living environment with shelter, case management, counseling, education,
and job-training assistance, with a goal of placing participants into living -wage employment and
permanent housing. The program is not duplicative of CityNet or CVAG, which focus on outreach
and short-term homelessness response, as Operation SafeHouse provides long-term,
residential transitional housing with on-site supportive services.
The Committee’s funding recommendations are presented in the table on the following page and
will be incorporated into the Annual Action Plan submitted to the County HWS, if approved.

For PY 2025–26, City Council approved additional program funding totaling $175,250 for Desert Recreation
District, Fair Housing, and the Palm Desert Housing Authority, which, when combined with $18,750, results in a
total approved CDBG allocation of $365,000.
It should be noted that the recommended allocation to Desert ARC is not inclusive of the
$130,000 recommended reallocation. When combined, this funding approach results in a total
project allocation of $304,320, supporting timely project completion and the effective use of prior -
year funds.
Public Review:
PY 2026-2027 Recommendation of CDBG Funds:
As a condition for receiving CDBG funds, grant recipients must be consistent with the County
HWS Consolidated Plan, and the City must conduct a public hearing to allow input from the
public. City staff published a 30 -Day Notice of Public Hearing in the Desert Sun on December
21, 2025, and a 10-Day Notice of Public Hearing on January 22, 2026, in English and Spanish.
Substantial Amendment:
The 30-day public comment period for the Substantial Amendment posted from December 18,
2025, through January 18, 2026. Notice of the public hearing was published in The Desert Sun
on December 18, 2025. The draft Substantial Amendment was posted on the City's website for
public review throughout the entire comment period.

Summary of Grant
Applications
Below you will find a summary of each grant application for Fiscal Year 2026-27.
County and City CDBG Allocation: $365,400
1. Jewish Family Service of the Desert (Public Services)
Requested Amount: $10,000
Funding Recommendation: $0
Project Name: Case Management Emergency Financial Assistance for Palm
Desert residents
Program Description:
Jewish Family Service of the Desert (JFS) – Case Management Program. JFS
provides free, year-round bilingual (English/Spanish) case management to
residents throughout the Coachella Valley. The program delivers individualized
client advocacy and emergency financial assistance to low- and moderate-
income households, helping residents cover past-due rent, utilities, food, and
medication. JFS anticipates increasing the number of Palm Desert individuals
and families receiving emergency financial assistance by approximately 35 .
Denied: Per the County Grant Administrator, the proposal lacks a clear and focused service
delivery plan, includes multiple unfocused purposes, and does not adequately document
that at least 51% of beneficiaries are low- to moderate-income Palm Desert residents.
Additionally, the requested funding level—$10,000 for 35 clients (approximately $286 per
client)—raises concerns about the feasibility of delivering meaningful services at the
proposed per-client amount.
2. Jewish Family Service of San Diego (Public Services)
Requested Amount: $15,000
Funding Recommendation: $0
Project Name: Basic Necessities for Individuals Facing Homelessness- Street
Outreach
Program Description:
Jewish Family Service of the Desert (JFS) – Homeless Support & Street
Outreach operates two HUD-funded Permanent Supportive Housing programs
that provide safe and affordable housing for up to 207 chronically homeless
individuals and families in Riverside County. In alignment with the regional “No
Wrong Door” policy, JFS conducts daily outreach to people experiencing
homelessness, offering immediate basic needs—food, water, hygiene kits,
clean clothing, and backpacks with essential supplies —along with
assessments, information, and referrals to appropriate service providers.
CDBG funds will support food, hygiene items, and outreach supplies for
individuals engaged through street outreach in Palm Desert and Desert Hot
Springs.
455
Page 4
Denied: Per the County Grant Administrator, does not meet the CDBG national objective.
These services and activities fall under the Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) program,
which specifically funds homeless operations.
3. Operation Safehouse (Public Services)
Requested Amount: $18,000
Funding Recommendation: $18,000
Project Name: Harrison House Transitional Living Program
Program Description:
o The agency serves runaway youth, homeless and at-risk youth in the
Coachella Valley. The agency requests funds for staffing to continue the
operation of the Harrison House (transitional living home), which
supports homeless young adults ages 18 to 24 who seek to become
independent and self-sufficient adults. The agency proposes to serve 10
young people.
4. Food in Need of Distribution, Inc. dba: FIND Regional Food Bank (Public
Services)
Requested Amount: $20,000
Funding Recommendation: $ 0
Project Name: FIND Mobile Market – Palm Desert High School
Project Description:
FIND Food Bank operates the Community Mobile Market at Palm Desert High
School, providing fresh, nutritious food directly to low- and moderate-income
Palm Desert residents. The market distributes fruits and vegetables, proteins,
pantry staples, and culturally appropriate items, staffed by trained personnel and
volunteers who assist with distribution, safety, and referrals to additional
services. Funds will support essential operational needs—including
transportation, staffing, and supplies—ensuring the Mobile Market continues to
offer reliable, accessible, and high-quality food assistance to the community.
Denied: Per the County Grant Administrator, this does not meet HUD Public Service
requirements because HUD requires unduplicated client counts for activities that qualify
under the Limited Clientele national objective. Total participant counts alone are not
sufficient for CDBG compliance.
5. The Joslyn Center (Public Facilities and Improvements)
Requested Amount: $ 100,000
Funding Recommendation: $ 100,000
Project Name: Joslyn Center Air Conditioning Replacement
Project Description:
The Joslyn Center seeks funding to replace seven (7) aging HVAC units
specifically four (4) 5-ton air conditioning compressors and associated heating
units serving the Wellness Center, and three (3) units serving the Arthur
Newman Theater. All systems were installed in 2007 and operate with obsolete
R-22 refrigerant, making repairs costly and unreliable. These units have
456
Page 5
exceeded their useful life and are among the oldest at the facility. Replacement
is essential to maintain safe, reliable cooling, especially during the summer
months when the Center functions as a community “cooling center.” New units
will also improve energy efficiency and reduce operating costs.
Up to 20% of project funds will support required design and project
management to ensure full CDBG compliance.
6. Desert ARC (Public Facilities and Improvements)
Requested Amount: $471,212
Funding Recommendation: $174,320
Project Name: Desert ARC Replacement HVAC Units – Building 1
Program Description:
Desert ARC provides essential day programs, job training, and supportive
services to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in a safe and
inclusive environment. To maintain reliable climate control, Desert ARC seeks
funding to replace seven (7) aging HVAC units serving in Building 1 of its Palm
Desert campus where clients spend the majority of their day. These units have
exceeded their useful life, experience frequent failures, and no longer operate
efficiently, creating health and safety concerns, especially during extreme
summer heat. Replacing the systems will ensure consistent indoor comfort,
improve energy efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and support the well-
being of the hundreds of clients who rely on Desert ARC’s programs each
day. The new HVAC systems will also provide an estimated 15-year service life
for Building 1, ensuring long-term reliability and stability for program operations.
7. City of Palm Desert (Administration)
Requested Amount: $73,080
Funding Recommendation: $73,080
Project Description:
Estimated allocation shared with the County.

Describe the reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs
The City identifies its highest priority needs during its citizen participation process every year and the
Consolidated Plan process every five years. Activities are funded annually taking into consideration
these highest priority needs. The primary obstacle to address underserved needs in the community is
the lack of resources to provide a greater level of assistance.

The City of Palm Desert is located in Riverside County; particularly, the Coachella Valley. Historically, the
City has not had any low- and moderate-income census tracts; however, the City now has two eligible
census tracts as of recently (ACS data). CDBG funds will be used for low- and moderate-income clientele
(or presumed benefit).

Table 4 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
The City has not historically funded CDBG activities based upon geographic areas since there have not
been eligible low and moderate-income census tracts; however, HUD recently revised the census criteria
used to determine eligibility. As a result, the City now has two CDBG-eligible census tracts. City staff is
currently exploring the possibility of a Section 108 Loan for City Council’s consideration in subsequent
program years.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i)
Introduction
The City will continue to work with nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and other
stakeholders to fund activities that help prevent and reduce homelessness.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness
including
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
The County of Riverside CoC has established chronically homeless persons as the highest need priority
based on the goals HUD has established in its Opening Doors Federal and Strategic Plan to Prevent and
End Homelessness. The CoC has implemented a Coordinated Entry System (CES) to ensure appropriate
intervention is utilized to serve those who are homeless and providing for a prioritization of vulnerability
and linkage to community resources and housing based on the vulnerability prioritization. Within the
CoC, there are several outreach teams from County, cities, and nonprofit homeless providers that cover
specific populations or geographic regions in the County. There is also specific outreach teams serving
the mentally ill, veterans, youth and chronic homeless. The Behavioral Health Systems Department has
outreach peer specialists that perform initial field assessments, in depth assessments, referrals to all
contacts, linkage to various community organizations.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The Housing First approach adopted by the County and CoC requires that homeless are helped into
permanent housing or rapid re-housing as soon as possible. Transitional housing beds have begun to
decrease countywide and permanent housing is increasing because of reallocations made in the HUD
CoC Program Consolidated Application and the CoC’s success in obtaining new funding for permanent
supportive housing. Both transitional housing and emergency shelters focus on lessening the time that a
homeless person or family’s length of time homeless (LOTH) in the shelter by effective and quick
assessment of homeless clients and getting them stabilized into permanent housing with intensive case
management initially and support in the initial phase of residency in permanent housing. This period will
serve as a time to address the other needs to maintain self-sufficiency either by accessing mainstream
benefits, employment or medical or mental health support.
The CoC collaborates with the City and other stakeholders to integrate CoC programs, Emergency
Solutions Grant (ESG), Social Services to Veteran Families (SSVF), and CDBG funding to increase the
number of persons with rapid re-housing assistance. Also, other non-McKinney-Vento funding sources,
such as Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP), funded under Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) will be matched as a source for rental / mortgage assistance for families that are
473
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
homeless or at-risk of homelessness in the County’s strategy to meet this goal.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The CoC implemented a Coordinated Entry System (CES) to assess homeless persons using the VI-SPDAT
that tracks the length of time a client has been on the streets or in an emergency shelter. DPSS uses
HUD’s CoC Program planning grant funding to measure system-wide performance in HMIS, such as
length of time homeless. This is used to help the CoC prioritize and house those with longest length of
time homeless. The planning process also included working with the CoC Standards and Evaluation
Committee to continue developing strategies to prioritize persons with longest time homeless and most
severe needs, including:
The CoC has also adopted a Housing First approach that is evidenced-based and endorsed by HUD to
place a homeless person in permanent housing and provide supportive services intended to keep them
stably housed.
Homeless CoC youth providers have implemented outreach and service-based events in the
communities to draw homeless youth, unaccompanied and transitional age into contact with services
available to them. The Operation SafeHouse is the only CoC youth provider that has opened a
permanent supportive housing program called the Harrison House, which is for transitional age youth, in
the eastern desert region of Riverside County.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly
funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities,
foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving
assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education, or youth needs.
The CoC Discharge Policy is mandated by the State and followed by the CoC. The CoC established a
Discharge Planning Committee, responsible for implementing policies and protocols and coordinating
with various organizations, to ensure that persons being discharged from a publicly funded institution or
system of care are not discharged immediately into homelessness. The goals are to identify discharge
housing needs inclusive of housing and supportive services and to link the individual with community
resources that will include mental health services, substance abuse support, and housing. The Hospital
Association of Southern California Inland Area serves as the lead agency on the Discharge Planning
474
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Committee to facilitate communication regarding the discharge planning needs of homeless persons
from acute care hospitals. The Riverside County University Health System – Behavioral Health,
collaborates with DPSS and the CoC in the coordination and implementation of discharge planning for
homeless individuals disabled by a serious mental health and/or substance abuse disorder(s). Foster
Care and extended foster care programs help transition dependent youth who are emancipating from
foster care to independent living. The Department of Public Social Services, Riverside Sheriff’s, and
Probation Department support the Continuum of Care’s mission of working towards reintegrating
persons leaving correctional facilities to community-based living and self-sufficiency.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction:
The City does not plan to undertake any activities this program year using CDBG funds to remove
barriers to affordable housing.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve
as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning
ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the
return on residential investment
The City does not plan to undertake any activities this program year using CDBG funds to remove

476
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction:
The City will continue to work with various stakeholders to meet the needs of its residents that remain
in-need of CDBG-eligible activities consistent with Consolidated Plan goals.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
The City will continue to work toward the reduction/elimination of obstacles to meet underserved needs
through the funding of various organizations that are established to provide direct services to those in
need. The City is not equipped to provide direct services; therefore, funding organizations that do is
essential to our success in addressing the identified goals and objectives. The City will continue to
partner with service providers to address obstacles and address barriers that exist. In addition, the City
works with the County of Riverside, the CoC, local agencies, nonprofits, etc. to address various aspects
related to CoC programs and activities, as well as obstacles that face the underserved in general.
However, the CoC addresses issues relative to homelessness, mental and physical illnesses, domestic
violence, etc. and has a wide range of members where collaboration in other areas is an option. Through
these working relationships, obstacles such as lack of communication between agencies, improved
services, limited resources, tracking and monitoring, and other needed resources are obtained, gaps in
services are better identified, and there is a more cohesive approach to identifying and resolving issues.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
The City and the Palm Desert Housing Authority will continue to maintain the existing affordable housing
stock through the funding sources identified previously; however, as noted with the elimination of
redevelopment agencies, there is no longer what is considered “20% Set Aside Funds”. Therefore,
maintaining existing properties and programs will be the primary focus, provided funding is available, for
some time to come. However, new projects and programs will be planned and implemented where and
when possible.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City’s Building & Safety and Housing departments distribute informational pamphlets on Lead Based
Paint Hazards and refer all calls to the County of Riverside Environmental Health Department. The City
addresses this issue on a case-by-case basis through multiple steps.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
The City is continuing to team up with service providers to provide assistance for poverty level families,
including funding food and services options during the Program Year. In addition, the City will seek out
additional partnerships for programs that encourage self-sufficiency including employment and training,
477
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
housing options, and safety net programs.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The City will continue to work with outside agencies to maintain and develop relationships, including
with nonprofit organizations, private businesses, the CoC, and nonprofit organizations in the region.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The City will continue to work with various County departments, agencies, and nonprofit organizations
to identify and carry out goals and objectives of the CDBG Program, and to create a more cooperative
working relationship with all interested parties. The City invites these groups to attend public hearings,
community meetings, and special meetings that address specific programs and projects. The City has an
approved Citizen’s Participation Plan that it follows in this regard. In addition, City staff regularly attends
CoC meetings that involve multiple organizations and various County Departments as well as other local
jurisdictions wherein discussions are held on homelessness as well as supportive services to other at-risk
groups of individuals and families.

1. Introduction
The City followed its HUD-approved Citizen Participation Plan to consult with the public, nonprofit
organizations, governmental agencies, and other stakeholders to prepare the Annual Action Plan as
required by 24 CRF 91.100.

Identify any Agency Types not consulted and provide rationale for not consulting
The City attempts to keep a comprehensive list of stakeholders potentially eligible to receive CDBG funds for activities consistent with the
Consolidated Plan goals. As some stakeholders undergo staffing changes, on occasion City staff is unaware of such changes throughout the
program year. As a result, some stakeholders may not realize the City is attempting to consult with their organizations during the Annual Action
Plan process. To mitigate this concern, City staff updates its contact list annually to ensure proper channels of communication with stakeholders

The City identifies its highest priority needs during its citizen participation process every year and the
Consolidated Plan process every five years. Activities are funded annually taking into consideration
these highest priority needs. The primary obstacle to address underserved needs in the community is
the lack of resources to provide a greater level of assistance.

Planned Activities This multi-phase project will entail a full remodel of each of the five
restrooms on The Joslyn Center campus in order to make them fully
compliant with ADA requirements and become fully handicap
accessible as set forth in the report and survey of Disability Access
Consultants conducted on May 21, 2018. This project will benefit all
2000+ members as well as other members of the public and guests that
utilize The Joslyn Center. It is estimated that at least 500 individuals
consisting of members, public and guests will directly benefit from the
ADA upgrades. This request represents the second phase of this project
which is the remodel of men's and women's restrooms in building two
which consists of meeting rooms and the Arthur Newman Theater.
Because of rising
construction costs, it would be possible to break the remodel of the
building’s two restrooms into separate projects consisting of the
individual men's and women's restrooms. This option was available in
the restroom remodel recently completed in building one. This choice is
available by requesting responsive bidders to submit bids for both
restrooms and for just one restroom. This would delay the ultimate
completion of the project, but allow some flexibility because of rising
construction costs. Remodeling the restrooms to ADA compliance is a
priority for The Joslyn Center because many of our members
experience physical disability which requires a fully accessible
restroom.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Planned Activities Desert Arc's HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning)
Replacement Project will encompass the removal and replacement of
nine (9) obsolete, rooftop HVAC units on Building 3 of its Palm Desert
campus (73275 Country Club Drive). The total amount needed for the
HVAC Replacement Project is $509,587.00 with roughly half of the total
amount being allocated toward equipment costs at $271,187.00. The
current HVAC units are 17 years-old, with an average lifespan of 15
years, and use an R-22 refrigerant coolant which will no longer be
available/produced due to new EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)
regulations. The old units will be replaced with new 410-A refrigerant
rooftop HVAC units which can be retrofitted into the existing system's
footprint. The replacement of these units is urgent for two reasons.
Firstly, the 410-A HVAC units will not be available after December 31,
2024 and the 2025 units will require additional construction and
fortification to the roof of Building 3 in order to compensate for the
additional weight of the 2025 units. Retrofitting the 410-
A HVAC units will save crucial time and funds. Secondly, California
Department of Social Services Title 22 (Division 6, Chapter 3, Section
82088) mandates that Desert Arc maintain a comfortable temperature
for clients at all times with a maximum indoor temperature of 85
degrees F or 30 degrees F less than outside temperatures in areas of
extreme heat. Due to the excessive summer temperatures in Palm
Desert, which can reach up to 120 degrees F, it is imperative for Desert
Arc to maintain a climate controlled facility to ensure the health and
well-being of its clients (people with intellectual and developmental
disabilities) and staff while also staying in line with state regulations.

can, there comes a point where replacement is necessary. The items
requested will help improve the treatment environment for the
patients in our
care, improving their safety and well-being. Additionally, a well-kept
facility is beneficial for mental and emotional health. Many of our

costs and many of our capital improvement purchases and upgrades
are funded through charitable contributions. Projects include: HVAC

The City of Palm Desert is located in Riverside County; particularly, the Coachella Valley. Historically, the
City has not had any low- and moderate-income census tracts; however, the City now has two eligible
census tracts as of recently (ACS data). CDBG funds will be used for low- and moderate-income clientele
(or presumed benefit).
Geographic Distribution
Citywide 100
Table 4 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically
The City has not historically funded CDBG activities based upon geographic areas since there have not
been eligible low and moderate-income census tracts; however, HUD recently revised the census criteria
used to determine eligibility. As a result, the City now has two CDBG-eligible census tracts. City staff is
currently exploring the possibility of a Section 108 Loan for City Council’s consideration in subsequent
program years.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i)
Introduction
The City will continue to work with nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and other
stakeholders to fund activities that help prevent and reduce homelessness.
Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness
including
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their
individual needs
The County of Riverside CoC has established chronically homeless persons as the highest need priority
based on the goals HUD has established in its Opening Doors Federal and Strategic Plan to Prevent and
End Homelessness. The CoC has implemented a Coordinated Entry System (CES) to ensure appropriate
intervention is utilized to serve those who are homeless and providing for a prioritization of vulnerability
and linkage to community resources and housing based on the vulnerability prioritization. Within the
CoC, there are several outreach teams from County, cities, and nonprofit homeless providers that cover
specific populations or geographic regions in the County. There is also specific outreach teams serving
the mentally ill, veterans, youth and chronic homeless. The Behavioral Health Systems Department has
outreach peer specialists that perform initial field assessments, in depth assessments, referrals to all
contacts, linkage to various community organizations.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons
The Housing First approach adopted by the County and CoC requires that homeless are helped into
permanent housing or rapid re-housing as soon as possible. Transitional housing beds have begun to
decrease countywide and permanent housing is increasing because of reallocations made in the HUD
CoC Program Consolidated Application and the CoC’s success in obtaining new funding for permanent
supportive housing. Both transitional housing and emergency shelters focus on lessening the time that a
homeless person or family’s length of time homeless (LOTH) in the shelter by effective and quick
assessment of homeless clients and getting them stabilized into permanent housing with intensive case
management initially and support in the initial phase of residency in permanent housing. This period will
serve as a time to address the other needs to maintain self-sufficiency either by accessing mainstream
benefits, employment or medical or mental health support.
The CoC collaborates with the City and other stakeholders to integrate CoC programs, Emergency
Solutions Grant (ESG), Social Services to Veteran Families (SSVF), and CDBG funding to increase the
number of persons with rapid re-housing assistance. Also, other non-McKinney-Vento funding sources,
such as Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP), funded under Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) will be matched as a source for rental / mortgage assistance for families that are

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
homeless or at-risk of homelessness in the County’s strategy to meet this goal.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families
with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to
permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that
individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals
and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were
recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The CoC implemented a Coordinated Entry System (CES) to assess homeless persons using the VI-SPDAT
that tracks the length of time a client has been on the streets or in an emergency shelter. DPSS uses
HUD’s CoC Program planning grant funding to measure system-wide performance in HMIS, such as
length of time homeless. This is used to help the CoC prioritize and house those with longest length of
time homeless. The planning process also included working with the CoC Standards and Evaluation
Committee to continue developing strategies to prioritize persons with longest time homeless and most
severe needs, including:
The CoC has also adopted a Housing First approach that is evidenced-based and endorsed by HUD to
place a homeless person in permanent housing and provide supportive services intended to keep them
stably housed.
Homeless CoC youth providers have implemented outreach and service-based events in the
communities to draw homeless youth, unaccompanied and transitional age into contact with services
available to them. The Operation SafeHouse is the only CoC youth provider that has opened a
permanent supportive housing program called the Harrison House, which is for transitional age youth, in
the eastern desert region of Riverside County.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely
low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly
funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities,
foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving
assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services,
employment, education, or youth needs.
The CoC Discharge Policy is mandated by the State and followed by the CoC. The CoC established a
Discharge Planning Committee, responsible for implementing policies and protocols and coordinating
with various organizations, to ensure that persons being discharged from a publicly funded institution or
system of care are not discharged immediately into homelessness. The goals are to identify discharge
housing needs inclusive of housing and supportive services and to link the individual with community
resources that will include mental health services, substance abuse support, and housing. The Hospital
Association of Southern California Inland Area serves as the lead agency on the Discharge Planning

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
Committee to facilitate communication regarding the discharge planning needs of homeless persons
from acute care hospitals. The Riverside County University Health System – Behavioral Health,
collaborates with DPSS and the CoC in the coordination and implementation of discharge planning for
homeless individuals disabled by a serious mental health and/or substance abuse disorder(s). Foster
Care and extended foster care programs help transition dependent youth who are emancipating from
foster care to independent living. The Department of Public Social Services, Riverside Sheriff’s, and
Probation Department support the Continuum of Care’s mission of working towards reintegrating
persons leaving correctional facilities to community-based living and self-sufficiency.

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction:
The City will continue to work with various stakeholders to meet the needs of its residents that remain
in-need of CDBG-eligible activities consistent with Consolidated Plan goals.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs
The City will continue to work toward the reduction/elimination of obstacles to meet underserved needs
through the funding of various organizations that are established to provide direct services to those in
need. The City is not equipped to provide direct services; therefore, funding organizations that do is
essential to our success in addressing the identified goals and objectives. The City will continue to
partner with service providers to address obstacles and address barriers that exist. In addition, the City
works with the County of Riverside, the CoC, local agencies, nonprofits, etc. to address various aspects
related to CoC programs and activities, as well as obstacles that face the underserved in general.
However, the CoC addresses issues relative to homelessness, mental and physical illnesses, domestic
violence, etc. and has a wide range of members where collaboration in other areas is an option. Through
these working relationships, obstacles such as lack of communication between agencies, improved
services, limited resources, tracking and monitoring, and other needed resources are obtained, gaps in
services are better identified, and there is a more cohesive approach to identifying and resolving issues.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing
The City and the Palm Desert Housing Authority will continue to maintain the existing affordable housing
stock through the funding sources identified previously; however, as noted with the elimination of
redevelopment agencies, there is no longer what is considered “20% Set Aside Funds”. Therefore,
maintaining existing properties and programs will be the primary focus, provided funding is available, for
some time to come. However, new projects and programs will be planned and implemented where and
when possible.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City’s Building & Safety and Housing departments distribute informational pamphlets on Lead Based
Paint Hazards and refer all calls to the County of Riverside Environmental Health Department. The City
addresses this issue on a case-by-case basis through multiple steps.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families
The City is continuing to team up with service providers to provide assistance for poverty level families,
including funding food and services options during the Program Year. In addition, the City will seek out
additional partnerships for programs that encourage self-sufficiency including employment and training,
516

housing options, and safety net programs.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The City will continue to work with outside agencies to maintain and develop relationships, including
with nonprofit organizations, private businesses, the CoC, and nonprofit organizations in the region.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social
service agencies
The City will continue to work with various County departments, agencies, and nonprofit organizations
to identify and carry out goals and objectives of the CDBG Program, and to create a more cooperative
working relationship with all interested parties. The City invites these groups to attend public hearings,
community meetings, and special meetings that address specific programs and projects. The City has an
approved Citizen’s Participation Plan that it follows in this regard. In addition, City staff regularly attends
CoC meetings that involve multiple organizations and various County Departments as well as other local
jurisdictions wherein discussions are held on homelessness as well as supportive services to other at-risk
groups of individuals and families.
