CASE NOS. GPA / CZ 10-18
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Desert, California, did
on the 16th day of February, 2010, hold a duly noticed public hearing to consider the
request to amend the Palm Desert General Plan, Exhibit "A", and change a zone to the
Palm Desert Zoning Map, Exhibit "B", attached hereto; 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. 06-78, the Director of Community Development has determined that the
project is a Class 5 Categorical Exemption and no further review is necessary, 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 and reasons to exist to justify approval of the
said request:
1. The property was originally designated and zoned for residential uses
before the implementation of the Project Area 4 Specific Plan. The
properties were designated for office use in anticipation of future
development along Washington Street. The development of office use
has not occurred and staff no longer believes that these properties are
needed for office development. The proposed land use and zoning
designation resulting from the General Plan Amendment and Change of
Zone will be compatible with the adjacent R.E.40,000 neighborhood west
of Washington Street.
2. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone will not
negatively affect the implementation of Project Area 4 Specific Plan, the
Palm Desert General Plan, and the Zoning Ordinance.
3. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare, or be materially
injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2518
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City
of Palm Desert, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute the findings of
the Planning Commission in this case.
2. That the Planning Commission does hereby recommends to the City
Council approval of General Plan Amendment (Exhibit A) / Change of Zone
10-18 (Exhibit B).
