A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF PALM
DESERT, CALIFORNIA, ANNOUNCING FINDINGS AND DENYING A VAR-
IANCE FROM THE PALM DESERT MUNICIPAL CODE (SIGN ORD.)
REGARDING SIGNING FOR A DEVELOPMENT IN THE C-1, S.P. ZONE.
CASE NO. VAR 01-80
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Desert, California,
did on the 4th day of March, 1980, hold a duly noticed Public Hearing to
consider the application of C.G. DUNHAM, INC., requesting approval of a
Variance from the Palm Desert Municipal Code (Sign Ord.) to allow two free-
standing signs, one on each street frontage, listing courtyard tenants for a
commercial building complex in the C-1, S.P. (General Commercial, Scenic
Preservation Overlay) zone, located at 73-260 El Paseo, more particularly
described as:
APN 627-201-09
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments, the Planning Commission did find the following facts
and reasons to exist to justify the denial of said Variance:
1. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of
the adopted Sign Ordinance will not result in practical
difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent
with the objectives of the ordinance.
2. There are no exceptional circumstances or conditions involved
that do not generally apply to other commercial buildings with
similar orientations.
3. The Sign Ordinance provides for signing beyond the main
identification sign; therefore, the strict or literal
interpretation and enforcement of the Ordinance would
not deny the applicant a privilege enjoyed by others in
a similar circumstance.
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
constitute the findings of the Commission in this case;
2. That Case No. VAR 01-80 is hereby denied.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Palm Desert
Planning Commission held on this 4th day of March, 1980, by the following
vote, to wit:
AYES: Berkey, Kryder, Miller, Snyder
NOES: None
