SUMMARY OF COUNCIL ACTION Director of Community Development Ryan Stendell reported that the City Council approved The Sands project at their meeting on April 26. He mentioned many residents felt that the public hearing process was beneficial. Vice Chairman Ron Gregory asked what were the significant changes made to the project by the City Council. PRELIMINARY MINUTES PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION MAY 1, 2018 Principal Planner Eric Ceja responded that there would be three three-story buildings on the site, new site perimeter improvements, permanent perimeter landscaping would be installed during Phase 1 of the project, and a new wall will be added along the southern property line that abuts Portola Country Club. During the City Council process, he said a community meeting was held with the applicant, owner of Canterra Apartments, and Portola Country Club and Venezia residents. It was determined that they were all fine with Building No. 4 (adjacent to the school) being changed back to three stories, if the other three-story buildings on the site were reduced. Chairman Pradetto interjected and asked if it was not all about the kids' safety. Mr. Ceja replied that is correct. Commissioner Nancy DeLuna asked what the height of the proposed wall is. Mr. Ceja replied eight feet. Commissioner DeLuna inquired if an eight-foot-high wall is permissible. Mr. Stendell responded that the eight-foot-high wall is permissible and noted it is a retaining wall. V. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS None VI. CONSENT CALENDAR , 11111NN, A.

Case No. CUP 18-0001 (The Hitting Zone, Palm Desert, California Applicant). Assistant Planner Nick Melloni presented the staff report (staff report is available at ww ,v,_c ityrfpal-md s rt, r ). Staff recommended approval and offered to answer any questions. Commissioner DeLuna noted that staff recommended reducing the parking requirement for the proposed use. However, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) sometimes runs with the land. She asked if the applicant were to vacate the site and a new business takes the space, will the parking requirement still apply. Mr. Melloni responded that if the new applicant were to propose an alteration of the existing operations or floor plans, the applicant would need to apply for a new CUP or subjected to staff's review. Commissioner DeLuna asked if The Hitting Zone would be open seven days a week. Mr. Melloni replied correct. He mentioned The Hitting Zone will close on Sundays during the summer. 3 GAPlanning\Monica OReilly\Planning Commission\2018\Minutes\5-1-18.docx PRELIMINARY MINUTES PALM DESERT PLANNING COMMISSION MAY 1, 2018 Chairman Pradetto declared the public hearing open and invited public testimony FAVORING or OPPOSING this matter.

He also agreed with staff's recommendation to reduce the parking requirement and felt The Hitting Zone will be a nice asset for the community. He made a motion for approval. Vice Chairman Gregory moved to waive further reading and adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. 2718, approving Case No. CUP 18-0001 , subject to conditions. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Greenwood and carried by a 5-0 vote (AYES: DeLuna, Greenwood, Gregory, Holt and Pradetto; NOES: None; ABSENT: None). XI. MISCELLANEOUS None dl' XII.

Property Description On March 18, 2014, the Planning Commission by Resolution No. 2621 approved TPM 36502 to subdivide a 2.09-acre parcel into four (4) parcels. The breakdown is as follows: • Parcel 1 - 20,787-square-foot single-family lot • Parcel 2 - 23,272-square-foot single-family lot • Parcel 3 - 34,206-square-foot single-family lot • Lot B - 8,146 square-foot retention basin The subdivision will create a flag lot extending west off JFK Trail, which will serve as access to the residential lots. The access road is 16 feet in width. The applicant will also widen JFK Trail to 25 feet in width, and install new curb and gutter. Each proposed single-family home would have to meet the R-1, 20,000 development standards, as well as receive approval from Ironwood's Homeowners' Association. On August 7, 2013, the Planning Commission ratified an extension granted by AB 116 for tentative tract and parcel maps approved after January 1, 2000, and unexpired as of July 11, 2013. AB 116 extended TT 36502 until May 6, 2018. Time Extension The applicant is in the process of working with the Department of Public Works on the final map. The final map is tentatively scheduled to go before the City Council in either June or July of 2018, and the one-year extension will allow them to continue to work on the map. May 15, 2018 — Planning Commission Staff Report Case Nos. TPM 36502 Time Extension Page 2 of 2 Generally, as conditioned, the map conforms to the goals and policies of the General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and the Subdivision Map Act.

Recommendation Waive further reading and adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. 2719, approving Tentative Parcel Map (TPM) 37491 , subject to conditions; and approve the Notice of Exemption in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Executive Summary Approving staff's recommendation allows the applicant to subdivide a partially developed 3.14-acre parcel into two (2) separate parcels. Parcel 1 is 2.18 acres and contains an existing hotel. Parcel 2 is 0.96 acres and contains a vacant area approved for a restaurant. The proposed subdivision complies with all applicable requirements of the Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) and the Subdivision Map Act. Background Analysis A. Property Description: The project site is a partially developed 3.14-acre parcel located at 74-764 Technology Drive on the eastern side of Technology Drive, north of Gerald Ford Drive. The site is rectangular and flat. The northern portion of the site contains an existing four-story hotel (Fairfield Inn & Suites). The southern portion is a vacant area approved for a future restaurant building. Access to the site is provided via two existing driveways off Technology Drive. B. Zoning and General Plan Designation: Zone: PC-3, FCOZ - Regional Commercial Center, Freeway Commercial Overlay Zone General Plan: Town Center Neighborhood May 15, 2018 — Staff Report Case No. TPM 37491 Page 2 of 4 C. Adjacent Zoning and Land Use: North: PC-3, FCOZ - Department of Motor Vehicles office South: PC-3, FCOZ/Retail center East: PC-2, FCOZ Park/Vacant pads West: PC-2 - Millennium Specific Plan/Pending application for Holiday Inn Express Hotel D. Additional Background The City Council approved the existing hotel and restaurant pad with Resolution 2014-40 for Precise Plan 14-25. The precise plan requires the construction of a detached restaurant building within 10 years of the hotel receiving a certificate of occupancy per Condition of Approval No. 13 (attached for reference). The Fairfield Inn & Suites received a certificate of occupancy on June 10, 2017. Section 25.34.070 of the PDMC requires restaurants to provide a three-meal restaurant within or adjacent to any hotel. Future development of the restaurant pad shall be reviewed by Planning staff and presented to the Architectural Review Commission for their decision. Protect Description The tentative parcel map proposes to subdivide the 3.14-acre parcel into two (2) independently owned commercial lots. The breakdown is as follows: Parcel No. Area Features Parcel 1 2.18 acres Existing Hotel Parcel 2 .96 acres Future Restaurant The proposal subdivides the vacant portion of the property from the existing hotel, creating a sellable portion for a future restaurant. No construction is proposed with this map. The site plan shown on the exhibits is conceptual. Reciprocal access easements between the two proposed parcels shall be created as needed. Existing easements for access between adjacent properties will remain. Analysis The Planning Commission may approve or deny the proposed map based on findings contained in Section 26.20.100 — Planning Commission Action, of Title 26 - Subdivisions of the PDMC. The proposed subdivision complies with the Zoning Ordinance, General Plan, and the Subdivision Map Act. Infrastructure improvements, including roads and utilities, have been installed and are available within Technology Drive. May 15, 2018 — Staff Report Case No. TPM 37491 Page 3 of 4 A. Land Use and Compatibility The project does not physically divide an existing community and does not conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation outlined in the General Plan. The proposed subdivision complies with the minimum parcel development standards for the PC-2 zone as identified in Table 25.16-4: Commercial and Industrial Development Standards with the exception of the 30-acre minimum lot size requirement. The table below summarizes the project's compliance with the minimum lot width and depth requirements. Standard PC-3 Requirement Parcel 1 Parcel 2 Conforms Lot Width None 351.92' 167' Yes Lot Depth None 248' (Min.) 248' (Min.) Yes The commercial minimum lot size standard is not intended to restrict the subdivision of existing commercially zoned parcels or existing commercial centers. Many of the existing PC-3 commercial areas throughout Palm Desert contain lots smaller than 30 acres. Smaller commercial lots are appropriate for businesses, such as restaurants, that typically own a property but do not require large amounts of land to support the use. Staff recommends a condition of approval be placed on the map stating "the Conditions of Approval contained in City Council Resolution 2014-40 apply to these newly created parcels."The intent of this recommendation is to clarify that the entitlement for the required restaurant approved under Precise Plan 14-25 extends with the new subdivision. B. Circulation Access to the site is available via two driveways off Technology Drive. Reciprocal access easements are proposed to ensure adequate access for both parcels. Location of new drive aisles shall be reviewed at the time development is proposed. Environmental Review This project has been reviewed in accordance with the CEQA guidelines. Staff has determined that the project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15315, Class 1: Minor Subdivisions, of the CEQA Guidelines. The proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance; existing services and access are available to the proposed parcels; the project site has been previously developed and has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species; the existing parcel was not involved in a division of a larger parcel within the previous two years as the existing parcel was created in 2008; and the site does not feature an average slope greater than 20 percent. Therefore, based on the above findings, staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt a Categorical Exemption for the proposed project. May 15, 2018 — Staff Report Case No. TPM 37491 Page 4 of 4 Findings of Approval Findings in support of this project are contained in the Planning Commission Resolution attached to this staff report.

Patel for approval of the above-notetl .and WHEREAS, according to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City must determine whether a proposed activity is a project subject to CEQA.'If the project is subject to CEQA, staff must conduct a preliminary assessment of the project to determine whether the project is exempt from CEQA review. If a project is not exempt, further environmental review is necessary. The application has complied with the requirements of the "City of Palm Desert Procedure for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act," Resolution No. 2015-75, in the Director of Community Development has determined that the proposed project is an Article 19 Class 15: Minor Land Divisions (15315) Categorical Exemption for purposes of CEQA and no further review is necessary; and WHEREAS, at said publjc hearing, 'upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of-'all 6terested`persons desiring to be heard, said Planning Commission did find the following facts and rea::o,ns to exist to justify the approval of said request: FINDINGS OF APPROVAL: Findings must be made in order to support the proposed land division as required by Section 26.20.100, Planning Commission Action, of Title 26 Subdivisions, of the Palm Desert Municipal Code. 1 . That the proposedrnap is consistent with applicable general and specific plans, as amended. 4 The proposed tentative parcel map is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Design ation,'for Town Center Neighborhoods. The zone allows for subdivisions and the two (2)`hew parcels meet the development standards in regard to lot widths, and lot depths. The applicant is not proposing a building and/or buildings as part of this subdivision. There is no specific plan for this development. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2719 2. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with applicable general and specific plans. The site was previously improved to comply with City standards. The proposal to subdivide this site does not require additional improvements beyond what has already been installed at the site. The existing development and use of the site have been designed to, and are consistent with, the General Plan and the City's Subdivision Ordinance and Zoning Ordinance. There is no specific plan for this development. 3. That the site is physically suitable for the type of development. The original parcel totals 3.14-acres and has been partially developed and fully graded. The proposed lot form is physically suitable for potential land users under the Regional Planned Commercial zone. Utilities including water, electrical, sewer, and gas are in place and compatible with surrounding properties. This further subdivision will not change the layout of the parcel. 4. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantial and avoidable injury to fish, wildlife, or their habitat. The creation of two (2) additional parcels will not cause substantial environmental damage or injuries to fish or wildlife or their habitat since the site has previously been graded and developed. Creation of two (2) new parcels at this site does not create any significant new physical impacts on the environment. 5. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems The proposal to create two (2) additional parcels will not create a physical change to the existing site and will not cause public health problems. Each lot will have access to a public street, Technology Drive. The lots will not create serious public health problems, as utilities are available to support the site. Mitigation measures for dust control and noise will be enforced during any future development of the lots. 6. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision.

Recommendation By Minute Motion, recommend that the applicant's request for a one-year time extension for Case No. PP/CUP 16-102 be extended until May 17, 2019. Background Analysis A. Property Description The Desert Arc campus is a 5.28-acre property located at the southeast corner of Sagewood Drive and Country Club Drive. The campus consists of administrative offices, educational programs, vocational training, and employment opportunities for the developmentally disabled. At the southern portion of the campus is a 1.84-acre undeveloped site controlled by the City's Housing Authority (HA). In 2016, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2669, approving a two-story, 36-unit special needs housing development on the Housing Authority's 1.84-acre site. B.

The Planning Commission may grant additional approvals, providing that there are no changes to zoning regulations that would impact the plan. The General Plan and zoning standards have been updated since the original project approval; however, none of the changes affect the project's use or approved development standards. This is the first time extension request for this project. Typically, the Planning Commission considers time extension requests for projects under the Consent Calendar of the Planning Commission agenda. However, this particular project is located on land owned by the City's HA and the lease agreement with the HA is valid until January 14, 2019. Staff is recommending that the time extension be considered by the Planning Commission with a recommendation to grant a one-year time extension of the project entitlements to the City Council/Housing Authority. If recommended, the City's Housing Department will take both the project extension and an amended lease agreement to the HA with a recommendation to align the expiration dates for the project entitlements and the lease agreement. The applicant is seeking financing for the development of the project and a one-year time extension allows the applicant to maintain the existing entitlements. Currently, the applicant has applied on three separate occasions for tax-exempt financing with the State's Tax Credit Allocation Committee and each time receiving a perfect score. However, the applicant has lost out to tiebreakers which favor larger projects in more urban centers such as Los Angeles and the Bay Area. During that time, staff has worked with the applicant to identify additional funding sources and the applicant continues to pursue financing for the project. Overall, this is a good project for the City as it provides specialized housing units in proximity to services and employment. Staff supports the project and recommends that the Commission recommend granting the one-year time extension to the City Council. LEGAL REVIEW DEPT.

We would like to request an extension of these entitlements. The Arc Village Development Team has been working diligently to secure the financing needed to develop this project, but the 9%LIHTC application process in California has been extremely competitive. We have not given up, nor will we give up. We have been exploring alternative options such as a combination of California HCD HOME funds with 4%LIHTC.
