July 31, 2012 Mr. Russ Dalgetty, Owner Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery 72-191 Highway 111 Palm Desert, California 92260 Dear Mr. Dalgetty: Subject: Proposed Patio Dining This letter supersedes my letter to you dated July 23, 2012, which was based upon incomplete and inaccurate information. Please disregard that letter entirely. From our meeting on Monday, July 16, 2012, 1 understand that you propose to.add 2,000 square feet of patio dining (where there is now a putting green) to your establishment at 72-191 Highway 111. Such a change in use can be permitted under the existing approved development plans as follows: 1 Development Plan DP 01-78 and Variance VA 01-78, as approved by Planning Commission Resolution No. 329 and amended by subsequent Resolutions No. 402, 473, and 519, allow development of 35,100 square feet of restaurant space and 24,900 square feet of ancillary commercial space with 508 parking spaces. 2. There are currently 41,952 square feet (SF) built out in seven restaurant spaces (four of which are vacant), and 17,401 SF of general commercial and office professional space. As currently configured, the parking lot provides 501 parking spaces. The City has previously taken no exception to the extra area (6,852 SF) fitted out as restaurant space because for many years the center has had a high vacancy rate, which allowed for an abundance of parking. 3. Reciprocal parking agreements are in place, which allow the Tilted Kilt patrons to use any of the 501 parking spaces available. Conversely, Red Lobster and Las Sombras patrons can use any of the parking spaces available, including those constructed on the Tilted Kilt parcel. 4. The two restaurants now open (Red Lobster and Olive Garden) comprise 14,127 SF of building area. Assuming that the Tilted Kilt is the next restaurant to open, the center will have 24,617 SF of the entitled 35,100 SF of restaurant space. 5. From our telephone conversation yesterday afternoon, I understand that your planned remodel will convert the putting green into patio dining area, but will also Mr. Russ Dalgetty Page 2 of 2 July 31, 2012 reduce other areas now used for dining. This means that there will be no net increase in dining area, so that the parking demand will not change by virtue of the conversion of outdoor putting green into dining patio. 6. Any changes in use from commercial (or vacant) to restaurant, or any future expansions, can be approved at a staff level so long as the new restaurant, change in use, or expansion does not increase the center's total restaurant use beyond the entitled 35,100 SF. More significant changes or expansions should return to the Planning Commission for approval. i 7. This letter discusses land use only. Construction plans for conversion of the putting green into a dining patio will need to be submitted for review and approval by the Planning, Building & Safety, Fire and Public Works Departments. 8. If any entertainment will be conducted on the patio, you will need to gain i approval of a revised Site Entertainment Plan. Any of the planners on staff can help you through this process. I hope that this letter answers your questions relative to conversion of your putting green into a patio dining area. I am copying Mr. Kevin Boeve and Mr. Pablo Rodriguez ` on this letter, since they will be leasing the vacant spaces at Las Sombras Village, and will need to be aware of restrictions on restaurant use there as they market vacant suites to prospective tenants. Best wishes for success in your new business venture in Palm Desert.
