PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 20
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, DENYING A REQUEST FOR AN AMEND-
MENT OF THE PALM DESERT ICAP TO DELETE A PROPOSED PARK-
ING LOT ON PROPERTY GENERALLY LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION OF DE ANZA WAY AND STATE HIGH-
WAY 111.
CASE NO. ICAP AMENDMENT - 05-74
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did on the 2nd day of Decem-
ber, 1974, hold a duly noticed Public Hearing to consider an Interim
Core Area Plan amendment application, filed by B. GIOGA to delete a
proposed parking lot on property generally located at the northeast
corner of the intersection of De Anza Way and State Highway 111, and
more particularly described as:
Lot 18, Palma Village Unit No. 11,
which is a portion of the S2 of the
NE4 of Section 20, T.5S, R.6E.,
S.B.B.&M.
WHEREAS, said application has complied with the requirements
of the "City of Palm Desert Environmental Quality Procedure Reso-
lution Number 74-14", in that this amendment is considered an on-
going project of the Interim Core Area Plan and is therefore cov-
ered under the Negative Declaration given to the Plan, and;
WHEREAS, at said public hearing upon hearing and considering
the testimony and arguments, if any, of all persons desiring to be
heard, said Planning Commission did find the following facts and
reasons to exist which make the denial of the ICAP AMENDMENT neces-
sary:
1. The parking lot is needed to alleviate the critical
shortage of off-street parking spaces in that part of the City.
2. The proposed amendment does not insure the protection of
the public health, safety, and general welfare.
3. The proposed amendment is not needed since the proposed
parking lot could be located on the subject lot or an adjacent lot
and meet the concepts of the Core Area Plan. Therefore, the sub-
ject lot could be developed commercially.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission
of the City of Palm Desert as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct and con-
stitute the findings of the Commission in this case.
Note
RESOLUTION NO. 20
2. That the Planning Commission does hereby deny the re-
quested ICAP AMENDMENT to delete the proposed parking lot for the
reasons set out in this resolution.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Plan-
