A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING TO
THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF A GENERAL PLAN
AMENDMENT FOR 34 ACRES OF LAND AT THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF COOK STREET AND HOVLEY LANE.
CASE NO. GPA 87-2
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Desert, California,
did on the 19th day of January, 1988, hold a duly noticed public hearing to
consider a request by TRIAD PACIFIC DEVELOPMENT for approval of a general plan
amendment affecting 34 acres at the northeast corner of the intersection of
Cook Street and Hovley Lane. The City of Palm Desert General Plan will be
amended from low density residential, 3-5 dwelling units per acre, to high
density residential, ranging from 7 to 18 dwelling units per acre, for the
easterly 25 acre portion of the project site. It is further requested to
amend the City's General Plan from low density residential, 3-5 dwelling units
per acre, to Office Professional space to be located on the westerly 9 acre
portion of the site; and
WHEREAS, said application has complied with the requirements of the "City
of Palm Desert Procedure for Implementation of the California Environmental
Quality Act, Resolution No. 80-89," in that an Environmental Impact Report has
been prepared which concludes that all project impacts can be mitigated.
Mitigation measures are included as conditions of approval; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be
heard, said planning commission did find the following facts to justify a
recommendation of approval:
1. The development proposal will develop relationships between land use
mixes within the city that will meet the basic human needs of the
City of Palm Desert and the sphere of influence.
2. The development proposal will develop relationships between land
uses within the city that will bring city costs and revenues into
balance over time.
3. The development proposal will develop a land use pattern that takes
optimum advantage of the city's natural assets including views,
mountain areas and the desert floor.
4. The development proposal will provide for an orderly balance of both
public and private land uses within convenient and compatible
locations throughout the city and ensure that all such uses --type,
amount, design and arrangement --serve to protect and enhance the
environment, character and image of the city.
5. The development proposal will encourage development in the form of
incremental extensions of existing developed areas rather than in an
uncoordinated 'leap frog' fashion.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 1273

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