WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Desert, California, did on
the 4th day of September, 1984, hold a duly noticed public hearing to consider a request
by McBAIL COMPANY for approval of a change of zone from R-1 12,000 (single family

five units per acre) for 58+ acres located at the southwest corner of Country Club Drive
and Portola Avenue, more particularly described as:
APN'S 622-020-007
622-020-037
WHEREAS, said application has complied with the requirements of the "City of
Palm Desert Procedures to Implement the California Environmental Quality Act,
Resolution No. 80-89", in that the director of environmental services has determined that
the project will not have a significant impact on the environment and a negative
declaration has been prepared.
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and
arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said commission did find
the following facts to justify its actions, as described below:
1. The proposed PR-5 (planned residential, maximum 5 dwelling units per acre)
is in compliance with the general plan land use element, which delineates
the property as low density residential 3 to 5 dwelling units per acre.
2. The proposed PR-5 zoning is the same as existing zoning to the west and
south and less intense than the existing use to the north and only slightly
higher than the PR-4 to the east.
3. The project proposed to be constructed, if this change of zone is approved,
shows that the site can be developed in a manner which is acceptable to the
city without signficant negative affects on adjoining properties.

Palm Desert, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute the findings
