Patricia J. Kessler AB 3158 Coordinator P.O. Box 944209 Sacramento, California 94244-2090 Re: Your Letter of November 9, 1992 Dear Ms . Kessler: We are in receipt of your letter of November 9, 1992, copy attached. We have been given to understand that AB 3158 requires a user fee to be paid for the destruction of wildlife habitat area. The subject property, TT 26970, is located within the existing State Fish and Game approved Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard Habitat Conservation Plan area which requires payment of a mitigation fee for the destruction of wildlife habitat area. One of the conditions placed on TT 26970 required payment of Fringe-Toed Lizard mitigation fee of $600 . 00 per acre ( i .e. $600 x 40 = $24, 000) for the tract. Imposing a second fee for the destruction of the same habitat area would be redundant and hence we filed a de minimis impact finding with the negative declaration. Please reconsider the necessity of your fee considering that a habitat destruction fee, based on an approved conservation plan, has already been conditioned. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours truly, ve��14*. STEPHEN R. SMITH ASSOCIATE PLANNER /tm Attachment MATE OF CALIFORNIA—THE RESOURCES —.

If a project is found to have an impact on fish and wildlife, the filing fee is assessed. The Department has reviewed your project !/IT 26970 and has determined that there is - not substantial evidence to support the finding of no impact to fish and wildlife. Your project will result in a decrease of wildlife habitat because it involves the subdivision of 39 acres, of plant and animal habitat, into 102 single family lots. Based on the Department's review, we have determined that the project is not De Minimis, which reverses the previous determination by the City of Palm Desert, and the appropriate environmental filing fee is due. Please remit the amount specified on the attached invoice to the Department of Fish and Game. If the fee is not remitted in 30 days from the date of this invoice, the Department of Fish and Game has been provided with the authority to assess a 10% penalty for late payment.

Unless we receive clarification or amendment by the date stated,the following will be considered as confirmed instructions and understanding. Any clarification or amendment must be received by: I met with Phillip Drell at the City of Palm Desert regarding CN.W.D. well site. I explained to Mr. Drell that the well site was 20,231.33 square feet or 0.46 Acres and that CN.W.D. wants a minimum of 21,780.00 square feet = 0.50 Acres. Also, that in order to accomplish this we either have to lose one lot or move the north, northeast, and east well site property lines 6 feet into the landscape area which will leave 14 feet from right-of-way to property line. At this time, Mr. Drell pulled out the job file and found no special requirement for 30 feet landscape area and said that their condition requirement was 20 feet from curb face to property line on Desert Springs Drive and Rosita Drive. So Mr. Drell told me that we could use 10 feet of the 20 feet shown on the Tentative Tract Map if we needed to and that will not conflict with the 20 feet landscape area as measured from back of curb along Desert Springs Drive and Rosita Drive. 275 N.

TT 26970 ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION CHECKLIST COMMENTS AND POSSIBLE MITIGATION MEASURES (CATEGORIES PERTAIN TO ATTACHED CHECKLIST ) 1 . EARTH a. The project will result in grading. Said grading will not result in any alterations to geologic substructures nor create unstable earth conditions in that all grading will be pursuant to the grading ordinance. b. As part of the normal grading activity soil will be moved, displaced, over-covered and compacted. This activity will be done per permit and approved grading plans to assure that the site is properly prepared for the structural development which will take place on the site. C. The site slopes from northwest and southeast and changes in topography and surface relief will be required to assure proper drainage and avoid increased runoff to adjoining properties. The after condition of the property will result in less water runoff from the property to adjoining properties, and better direction. This will be accomplished through provision of onsite retention basins. d. The site does not contain any unique geologic or physical features. e. The project as stated previously will result in less potential water damage to the site, through proper grading resulting in the appropriate directing of runoff from the site. Soil erosion due to wind is an existing condition on the site in that the site is an identified blowsand hazard area in the Riverside County Comprehensive General Plan and Palm Desert North Sphere Specific Plan. Development on the site will result in less wind erosion and result in less fugitive dust emissions. This conclusion is supported in the discussion of Air Quality in County of Riverside EIR No. 305 (Equity Directions) pgs. 22-34, as well as the Draft State Implementation Plan for PM 10 in the Coachella Valley pgs. 4- 2 through 4-22. Mitigation Measures: The City of Palm Desert grading and building permits procedures require detailed geotechnical reports addressing grading specifications and the settlement and expansive characteristics of on-site soils. All structures must be design ed by UBC requirements to insure that the buildings are constructed within the acceptable level of risk set forth therein for the type of building and occupancies being INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 developed. The city grading ordinance, as well as the State Implementation Plan for PM10, will reduce soil erosion due to wind to a level of insignificance. . 2. AIR a. During construction, particularly grading, a potential dust problem will be a short-term impact. Requiring that the ground be moistened during days in which grading occurs will mitigate this problem. This is required by the City of Palm Desert Grading Ordinance. Because the site is already an urbanized setting its development will not result in an overall deterioration of ambient air quality. This conclusion is supported by the discussions relating to air quality contained in a 1985 draft environmental impact report prepared for the City of Rancho Mirage by Michael Brandman Associates entitled "Park View Drive Land Use Study. " The EIR prepared on the Monte Carlo Mixed Use Project at Hovley and Cook Street at page III concludes that the long term ambient air quality is affected by stationary source emissions 3. 2% and mobil sources 96.8%. Trip generation from this proposed project will be lower than was anticipated in the Riverside County Comprehensive General Plan and the Palm Desert North Sphere Specific Plan which would have permitted densities up to five units per acre. This project is 2 . 6 units per acre. In addition this project, given its design and location, fulfills two of the mitigation measures contained in the air quality study done in conjunction with the North Sphere Specific Plan by Endo Engineering at page 1-2, items four and five, which read as follows: 4. Project amenities such as the tennis courts provide recreational opportunities in close proximity to residential uses and encourage alternate modes of transportation and reduce recreational trip lengths. 5. The proximity of residential areas to commercial and office land uses results in shorter trip lengths and therefore lowers pollutant emissions. b. The proposed development does not call for any odorous land uses. 2 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 c. Development of this site will not result in any climatic changes. This is due to its size and identified uses. 3 . WATER a. Water will be redirected to drainage facilities designed and constructed to accept the water on the site. b. The overall site will absorb less water due to ground coverage. The landscaped areas will absorb water because of the plant material . The alterations in drainage patterns will result in a benefit to adjoining property as it will be directed in a controlled manner. C. See b. d. There is no ground water present on the site. e. See d. f. While any development results in the use of water and, therefore, reduces the amount otherwise available for public water supplies; the Coachella Valley Water District assures that there is sufficient water supplies to accommodate this growth. 4. PLANT LIFE a. The project when completed will introduce a diversity of species to the site. The plans that will be introduced to the site will, however, be material previously used in the desert. b. The site does not contain any unique, rare or endangered species of plant life. C. It is extremely doubtful that the project will introduce any new species into the area. In any event the landscape plan will be reviewed by the architectural inspector of Riverside County to assure that the plants being used to not pose a hazard to agricultural production in the area. 5. ANIMAL LIFE a. The project will not increase or decrease the variety of animal life on the side. 3 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 b. The site does contain habitat for the fringe-toed lizard, an endangered specie. As mitigation the applicant will be required to pay $600 per acre to the nature Conservancy for use in acquiring habitat area north of I-10. C. See b and c. d. The project site is an in-fill site and not a suitable long- term habitat for wildlife. A habitat conservation plan was established which will provide for the long term preservation of the endangered Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard as well as other flora and fauna associated with the blowsand ecosystem. Payment of the mitigation fee will allow expansion of the preserve established by the Nature Conservancy. In return for the mitigation fee, the cities of the valley were issued section 10a permits of the Endangered Species Act by Fish and Wildlife Service which permits the incidental taking of the lizard and destruction of the habitat. 6. NATURAL RESOURCES a. The project will obviously use natural resources, but will not increase the rate of usage of these resources. b. All material resources used on the site are renewable. New electric power to the site is available from Southern California Edison. Edison responded to the City' s North Sphere Plan and indicated that it was within growth projections for the utility. The density of this development is fifty percent ( 50%) less than the North Sphere Plan designated. Southern California Gas Company will provide natural gas to the site from existing mains on Country Club Drive. Both utilities have indicated they are able to serve the site. Energy use on a per unit basis will be lower than a typical residential community in that many of the units will be second homes and used on a part-time basis only. This is especially true in the summer months when electric use peaks and private community occupancy is at its lowest. 4 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 Units will be required to comply with Title 24 and the most recent state and city codes. In addition, the City' s Architectural Review Commission reviews plans for the provisions of adequate solar protection which is in addition to Title 24. No additional mitigation is necessary. 7 . a. & b. No more than normal usage. In addition, since the project will be required to comply with the most current state energy codes, energy usage will be less than on previous projects of a similar nature. B. The site does not contain any substances that could result in explosion or escape of hazardous materials. 9 . a. As discussed earlier the project will have a positive impact in terms of drainage impacts on adjacent properties. b. Properties in the area are not subject to unusual geologic hazards. The project will not effect that hazard. 10. NOISE Construction and subsequent use as single family dwellings will increase ambient noise level . The increase will not create a long term annoyance to the adjacent residential properties. Mitigation Measures: Strict adherence to construction hours and days will be required. 11 . LAND USE The project will not alter the present developed land use in the area. The planned land use for the area is identified as low density residential; the project would develop land uses permitted in the low density residential land use designation ( 5 du/acre) . 12. OPEN SPACE The site in question is designated as low density residential; its development, therefore, will not result in a reduction in the amount of designated open space. Park fees collected from this development will be used to purchase park land or develop park land to serve this area. 5 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 13 . POPULATION a. Developing single family lots in the area designated low density residential will not result in changes in location, distribution, density, or growth rate of the city' s population. b. The project will not generate changes in the socio-economic characteristics of the area. 14. EMPLOYMENT While the project will provide a number of new jobs in terms of the value as a whole, in and of itself, it is minor. Most of the jobs created: gardeners, pool maintenance and other service personnel, however, will be filled by residents of the area or those who have come to the valley for other reasons. 15 . HOUSING a. The project will not change the housing picture in the community or region. This is based on the conclusions reached in items 13 and 14. b. None - covered in item 15 a. 16. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION a. Projected trip generation per single family dwelling unit per day is 10 for a total of 1020 trip ends. As part of the conditions of approval the applicant shall be required to provide road improvements as provided by the circulation element of the general plan. b. All new single family dwellings are required to provide two covered parking spaces as well as on-street and driveway parking. C. Except for additional vehicular movements discussed above the project should not generate additional demands on existing transportation systems. In addition these systems have additional capacity to accept the traffic these project will create. d. Principal access to the area will be via Country Club Drive. 6 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 e. Implementation of the mitigation measures set forth by item 16a should result in positive impacts. 17 . PUBLIC SERVICE a-f. None. The property is presently vacant. A commitment to urban uses was made as the area surrounding the study area has been developed, and the general plan and zoning maps designated the area for residential development. Infrastructure improvements ( i .e. : streets and utilities ) have been made and are adequate to serve the proposed development. The proposed land uses would increase the economic productivity of the land in terms of land efficiency and greater economic return generated from these uses, versus the current state of the land. 18 . PUBLIC FISCAL BALANCE The project will result in a net increase on fiscal flow to the City of Palm Desert through an increase in the assessed value of the land. 19 . UTILITIES All utilities have indicated an ability to serve the proposed development. 20. HUMAN HEALTH The project will not create hazard to human health in the long or short term nor will it impact the level of community health. 21 . SOCIAL SERVICES The property will be developed with single family dwellings and apartments. Owners of these homes will pay substantial amounts of property tax and generally have a low incidence of use of social services. Any increase in the demand for general social services will be minimal. 22 . AESTHETICS a. The city grading ordinance and architectural review process take into account the effects development may have on adjacent properties and the views available from public streets. Care will be taken to assure that any impact on views from adjacent properties or scenic vistas will be minimized. 7 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 b. The proposed single family dwellings must be approved by the Palm Desert architectural review process. C. For reasons stated in items 22 a and b. 23. LIGHT AND GLARE a. New light will be produced but the effects will be minimal . 24. There has been no evidence of any archeological or historical significance of this site.

Mr. Smith outlined the salient points of the staff report and recommended approval. Commission asked for and received clarification regarding traffic issues and access. Chairperson Whitlock opened the public testimony and asked if the applicant wished to address the commission. MR. RICK MORELLI, applicant, stated that he did not have any problems with the conditions. He explained that the access location was for aesthetic purposes, and was he not in favor of a side street entrance shared with commercial uses. Chairperson Whitlock asked if anyone wished to speak in FAVOR or OPPOSITION to the proposal. MR. GARY PIKE, engineer for the Holt Group, 275 N. El Cielo Suite D-3 in Palm Springs, described in detail the ingress/egress access and car stacking capacity on Country Club. He also noted that community development department condition no. 2 should be amended to two years, not one year. Staff concurred with the amended to condition no. 2 . Chairperson Whitlock closed the public testimony. 2 i ' MINUTES PALM DESERT PLANNING UOMMISSION JUNE 4, 1991 Commissioner Jonathan stated that his concerns would not stand in the way of project approval . He suggested some creativity to eliminate having too many ingress/egress points on Country Club and with the amount of traffic in the area, the city should plan for it now.

Mr. Drell outlined the salient points of the staff report. He noted that a letter had been received signed by 20 area residents with concerns relative to location of trash containers; Mr. Drell indicated the proposed restaurants were on Highway 111 and the only trash enclosures used by the restaurant would be in the lot on Highway 111 and none of the enclosures north of Alessandro would be used for the restaurant, which could specifically be conditioned. Second was parking; staff did not expect the traffic to flow into the Alessandro area relative to the restaurant. Staff noted that the residents suggested closing San Marino Circle and making it a cul-de-sac. Also an issue were late night noises in parking lots caused by these uses; staff suggested required valet parking as a possible solution and possibly closing that lot at 9 :00 p.m. or 10:00 p.m. Concerns about overhead lot 3 CITY OF PALM DESERT DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT STAFF REPORT TO: Planning Commission DATE: June 4, 1991 CASE NO: TT 26970 REQUEST: Approval of a tentative tract map subdividing 39 acres into 102 single family lots on the north side of Country Club Drive, 1300 feet west of Cook Street. APPLICANT: The Gemini Development Partnership 64-515 Acanto Drive Palm Springs, CA 92264 The Holt Group, Inc. 275 N. E1 Cielo Road, Suite D-3 Palm Springs, CA 92262 I . BACKGROUND• A. DESCRIPTION OF SITE: The site is a vacant 39 +\- acre property which slopes gently from northwest to southeast. B. ADJACENT ZONING AND LAND USE: North: Residential/Vacant South: PR-4/Marriott ' s Desert Springs East: PC-2/Vacant West: PR-5/Vacant C. ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: The site is zoned PR-5, five dwelling units per acre and the general plan designation is residential low density (3-5 dwelling units per acre) . The zoning is consistent with the general plan. D. ZONE REQUIREMENTS: The PR-5 zone permits up to five dwelling units per acre, be they condos, apartments or single family dwellings. The proposed map is to create 102 single family lots having a minimum lot area of 10, 000 square feet and minimum lot width of 90 feet. These lots will be on private streets. This property is zoned planned residential . Section 25. 24. 190 permits commission to impose such conditions it deems STAFF REPORT TT 26970 JUNE 4, 1991 necessary to carry out the general purpose of the section. This development is for a single family subdivision and, therefore, staff feels it is appropriate to establish standards for this project consistent with the R-1 standards. R-1 Standards Minimum lot area 8000 square feet Minimum lot width 70 feet Minimum lot depth none Minimum dwelling unit size 1000 square feet Maximum height 18 feet - single story Maximum coverage limit 35% Minimum front yard 20 feet Minimum rear yard 15 feet Minimum side yard Total 14 feet-minimum 5 feet Minimum street side yard 10 feet The 102 lots as proposed conform to the minimum required lot area, lot width and lot depth as prescribed in the ordinance. The design of the future homes on these lots will be required to conform to the other standards noted above. II. PROJECT LAYOUT: The project, in addition to 102 single family lots, includes a clubhouse, three tennis courts and 17 guest parking spaces. The main access is taken from Country Club Drive. In addition, at the east end of the property Desert Springs Drive north of Country Club will provide a secondary access point. Also, a half street will be constructed across the north side of the site to provide a connection to the west. Lots within the project are served by a perimeter loop street system and two east-west connector streets. As a result most of the lots are oriented north-south which is desirable from a solar protection point of view. Across the Country Club Drive frontage the lots have been setback an additional 40 feet from the ultimate right-of-way limit. The street will be widened to match the south side. There will be a meandering sidewalk. There will then be an 8 foot to 9 1/2 foot high berm installed in the additional 40 foot setback area. Beyond the berm at the lot property lines will be a six foot high 2 STAFF REPORT TT 26970 JUNE 4, 1991 decorative block wall. This combination of extended setback, berm and wall should help to reduce the impact of noise from traffic on Country Club. III. ANALYSIS: A.

TT 26970 ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION CHECKLIST COMMENTS AND POSSIBLE MITIGATION MEASURES (CATEGORIES PERTAIN TO ATTACHED CHECKLIST) 1 . EARTH a. The project will result in grading. Said grading will not result in any alterations to geologic substructures nor create unstable earth conditions in that all grading will be pursuant to the grading ordinance. b. As part of the normal grading activity soil will be moved, displaced, over-covered and compacted. This activity will be done per permit and approved grading plans to assure that the site is properly prepared for the structural development which will take place on the site. C. The site slopes from northwest and southeast and changes in topography and surface relief will be required to assure proper drainage and avoid increased runoff to adjoining properties. The after condition of the property will result in less water runoff from the property to adjoining properties, and better direction. This will be accomplished through provision of onsite retention basins. d. The site does not contain any unique geologic or physical features. e. The project as stated previously will result in less potential water damage to the site, through proper grading resulting in the appropriate directing of runoff from the site. Soil erosion due to wind is an existing condition on the site in that the site is an identified blowsand hazard area in the Riverside County Comprehensive General Plan and Palm Desert North Sphere Specific Plan. Development on the site will result in less wind erosion and result in less fugitive dust emissions. This conclusion is supported in the discussion of Air Quality in County of Riverside EIR No. 305 ( Equity Directions) pgs. 22-34, as well as the Draft State Implementation Plan for PM 10 in the Coachella Valley pgs. 4- 2 through 4-22. Mitigation Measures: The City of Palm Desert grading and building permits procedures require detailed geotechnical reports addressing grading specifications and the settlement and expansive characteristics of on-site soils. All structures must be design ed by UBC requirements to insure that the buildings are constructed within the acceptable level of risk set forth therein for the type of building and occupancies being INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 developed. The city grading ordinance, as well as the State Implementation Plan for PM10, will reduce soil erosion due to wind to a level of insignificance. 2. AIR a. During construction, particularly grading, a potential dust problem will be a short-term impact. Requiring that the ground be moistened during days in which grading occurs will mitigate this problem. This is required by the City of Palm Desert Grading Ordinance. Because the site is already an urbanized setting its development will not result in an overall deterioration of ambient air quality. This conclusion is supported by the discussions relating to air quality contained in a 1985 draft environmental impact report prepared for the City of Rancho Mirage by Michael Brandman Associates entitled "Park View Drive Land Use Study. " The EIR prepared on the Monte Carlo Mixed Use Project at Hovley and Cook Street at page III concludes that the long term ambient air quality is affected by stationary source emissions 3.2% and mobil sources 96.8%. Trip generation from this proposed project will be lower than was anticipated in the Riverside County Comprehensive General Plan and the Palm Desert North Sphere Specific Plan which would have permitted densities up to five units per acre. This project is 2. 6 units per acre. In addition this project, given its design and location, fulfills two of the mitigation measures contained in the air quality study done in conjunction with the North Sphere Specific Plan by Endo Engineering at page 1-2, items four and five, which read as follows: 4. Project amenities such as the tennis courts provide recreational opportunities in close proximity to residential uses and encourage alternate modes of transportation and reduce recreational trip lengths. 5. The proximity of residential areas to commercial and office land uses results in shorter trip lengths and therefore lowers pollutant emissions. b. The proposed development does not call for any odorous land uses. 2 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 C. Development of this site will not result in any climatic changes. This is due to its size and identified uses. 3. WATER a. Water will be redirected to drainage facilities designed and constructed to accept the water on the site. b. The overall site will absorb less water due to ground coverage. The landscaped areas will absorb water because of the plant material . The alterations in drainage patterns will result in a benefit to adjoining property as it will be directed in a controlled manner. C. See b. d. There is no ground water present on the site. e. See d. f. While any development results in the use of water and, therefore, reduces the amount otherwise available for public water supplies; the Coachella Valley Water District assures that there is sufficient water supplies to accommodate this growth. 4. PLANT LIFE a. The project when completed will introduce a diversity of species to the site. The plans that will be introduced to the site will, however, be material previously used in the desert. b. The site does not contain any unique, rare or endangered species of plant life. C. It is extremely doubtful that the project will introduce any new species into the area. In any event the landscape plan will be reviewed by the architectural inspector of Riverside County to assure that the plants being used to not pose a hazard to agricultural production in the area. 5. ANIMAL LIFE a. The project will not increase or decrease the variety of animal life on the side. 3 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 b. The site does contain habitat for the fringe-toed lizard, an endangered specie. As mitigation the applicant will be required to pay $600 per acre to the nature Conservancy for use in acquiring habitat area north of I-10. C. See b and c. d. The project site is an in-fill site and not a suitable long- term habitat for wildlife. A habitat conservation plan was established which will provide for the long term preservation of the endangered Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard as well as other flora and fauna associated with the blowsand ecosystem. Payment of the mitigation fee will allow expansion of the preserve established by the Nature Conservancy. In return for the mitigation fee, the cities of the valley were issued section 10a permits of the Endangered Species Act by Fish and Wildlife Service which permits the incidental taking of the lizard and destruction of the habitat. 6. NATURAL RESOURCES a. The project will obviously use natural resources, but will not increase the rate of usage of these resources. b. All material resources used on the site are renewable. New electric power to the site is available from Southern California Edison. Edison responded to the City' s North Sphere Plan and indicated that it was within growth projections for the utility. The density of this development is fifty percent ( 501%) less than the North Sphere Plan designated. Southern California Gas Company will provide natural gas to the site from existing mains on Country Club Drive. Both utilities have indicated they are able to serve the site. Energy use on a per unit basis will be lower than a typical residential community in that many of the units will be second homes and used on a part-time basis only. This is especially true in the summer months when electric use peaks and private community occupancy is at its lowest. 4 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 Units will be required to comply with Title 24 and the most recent state and city codes. In addition, the City' s Architectural Review Commission reviews plans for the provisions of adequate solar protection which is in addition to Title 24. No additional mitigation is necessary. 7. a. & b. No more than normal usage. In addition, since the project will be required to comply with the most current state energy codes, energy usage will be less than on previous projects of a similar nature. 8. The site does not contain any substances that could result in explosion or escape of hazardous materials. 9 . a. As discussed earlier the project will have a positive impact in terms of drainage impacts on adjacent properties. b. Properties in the area are not subject to unusual geologic hazards. The project will not effect that hazard. 10. NOISE Construction and subsequent use as single family dwellings will increase ambient noise level. The increase will not create a long term annoyance to the adjacent residential properties. Mitigation Measures: Strict adherence to construction hours and days will be required. 11. LAND USE The project will not alter the present developed land use in the area. The planned land use for the area is identified as low density residential; the project would develop land uses permitted in the low density residential land use designation ( 5 du/acre) . 12 . OPEN SPACE The site in question is designated as low density residential; its development, therefore, will not result in a reduction in the amount of designated open space. Park fees collected from this development will be used to purchase park land or develop park land to serve this area. 5 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 13. POPULATION a. Developing single family lots in the area designated low density residential will not result in changes in location, distribution, density, or growth rate of the city' s population. b. The project will not generate changes in the socio-economic characteristics of the area. 14. EMPLOYMENT While the project will provide a number of new jobs in terms of the value as a whole, in and of itself, it is minor. Most of the jobs created: gardeners, pool maintenance and other service personnel, however, will be filled by residents of the area or those who have come to the valley for other reasons. 15. HOUSING a. The project will not change the housing picture in the community or region. This is based on the conclusions reached in items 13 and 14. b. None - covered in item 15 a. 16. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION a. Projected trip generation per single family dwelling unit per day is 10 for a total of 1020 trip ends. As part of the conditions of approval the applicant shall be required to provide road improvements as provided by the circulation element of the general plan. b. All new single family dwellings are required to provide two covered parking spaces as well as on-street and driveway parking. - c. Except for additional vehicular movements discussed above the project should not generate additional demands on existing transportation systems. In addition these systems have additional capacity to accept the traffic these project will create. d. Principal access to the area will be via Country Club Drive. 6 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 e. Implementation of the mitigation measures set forth by item 16a should result in positive impacts. 17. PUBLIC SERVICE a-f. None. The property is presently vacant. A commitment to urban uses was made as the area surrounding the study area has been developed, and the general plan and zoning maps designated the area for residential development. Infrastructure improvements ( i.e. : streets and utilities) have been made and are adequate to serve the proposed development. The proposed land uses would increase the economic productivity of the land in terms of land efficiency and greater economic return generated from these uses, versus the current state of the land. 18. PUBLIC FISCAL BALANCE The project will result in a net increase on fiscal flow to the City of Palm Desert through an increase in the assessed value of the land. 19. UTILITIES All utilities have indicated an ability to serve the proposed development. 20. HUMAN HEALTH The project will not create hazard to human health in the long or short term nor will it impact the level of community health. 21 . SOCIAL SERVICES The property will be developed with single family dwellings and apartments. Owners of these homes will pay substantial amounts of property tax and generally have a low incidence of use of social services. Any increase in the demand for general social services will be minimal. 22. AESTHETICS a. The city grading ordinance and architectural review process take into account the effects development may have on adjacent properties and the views available from public streets. Care will be taken to assure that any impact on views from adjacent properties or scenic vistas will be minimized. 7 INITIAL STUDY TT 26970 b. The proposed single family dwellings must be approved by the Palm Desert architectural review process. C. For reasons stated in items 22 a and b. 23. LIGHT AND GLARE a. New light will be produced but the effects will be minimal. 24. There has been no evidence of any archeological or historical significance of this site. In addition, state law requires that should any evidence be found during construction, construction must cease and the site cleared. 25. Because of the mitigation measures identified herein and required of the project, the proposal will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment.

The proposed tract map consisting of 102 units will increase the population to approximately 250 new residents, based on an average population of 2.3 residents per dwelling unit. This increase will increase calls for police service and also increase response time to the area which is currently undeveloped. This project, along with projects being proposed and under construction wiil increase the need for additional manpower. A locator board at the east unmanned security gate could assist arriving emergency personnel . The addressing of the project should be consistart with east/west and north/south addressing throughout the city. Individual addressing as it relates to lot parcels within the project should not be used. If you have any ques':ions, call me at Ext 303.
