The concern of the City of Indian Wells stems fr6m the fact that property borders on Cook Street which is now, and especially in the future, will be an important artery into the cities of Palm Desert and Indian Wells. The reasons for the objections to the proposed annexation and zoning were outlined generally in Mr. Harry H. Schmitz's letter to the City Council dated January 10, 1977, and are as follows: a. There is more than enough industrial zoning to meet current and future needs. b. The properties on three sides of this property are zoned R-1, and the proposed industrial zoning would impede the orderly development of the properties as low density R-1 and trigger requests for further industrial zoning. c. The proposed zoning will greatly detract from the scenic quality of the Cook Street corridor into the cities. d. The growth inducing impact occasioned by additional commercial and industrial facilities will cause an additional strain on existing utilities and public services. The heavy industrial equipment used in such facilities will have an adverse environmental effect creating noise, blow sand problems, soil erosion and traffic hazards. e . The proposed zoning will conflict with the County General Plan which calls for industrial development to end at Avenue 42. If further amplification of these views is desired, representative's of the City of Indian Wells will be pleased to meet with members of the Council or with officials of the City of Palm Desert.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS Environmental impact is not limited to the effects on plants and animals but includes the effects that the General Plan may have on a wide range of physical, biological, economic and social issues, The General Plan considers the effect of various development alter- natives on the physical and social environment during the Plan's formation stages. Because of this the following sections will deal with secondary effects only and be of a generalized nature. Only those impacts which the General Plan itself does not detail are elaborated on in the following analysis. A. Natural Environment 1. Topography The implementation of the General Plan wiil necessarily alter the topography. Development of golf courses, grading for structures, etc. will change existing land contours. This is not seen as detrimental, as most of the existing topography in proposed development areas is of little intrinsic value to man. Provisions have been made in the General Plan to preserve the two significant topographic portions of the project area; i.e., the sand dunes and mountain areas. 2. Seismic and Non -Seismic Geology The probability of a severe earthquake being experienced in the planning area is not high but the possibility always exists. All that can be done is to minimize seismic hazard through development controls in earthquake zones; e.g., zoning ordinances and building code regulations. Background data necessary for the evaluation of various strategies with which to minimize seismic hazards is provided in the Seismic Element 6.4. The same basic type of information required in seismic safety evaluations is needed for other types of geologic hazards. Data on non -seismic hazards is presented in the Public Safety Element, 6.2. This includes identification of blowsand, severe slope, and flood hazard areas. Wind erosion is one of the major problems in areas where future development is proposed. Double rows of tamarisk trees should aid in abating the problem once they are full grown. However, during development stages and until the E>7 tamarisks take hold, sand storms and extensive sand accumulation on roads can be expected to occur. The chances for sandblow are highest once vegetation has been removed during construction projects. Riverside County Ordinance 484.1 or future ordinances developed by the City will have to be adhered to in order to minimize the hazard. 3. Vegetation and Wildlife Detailed descriptions of the vegetation and various wildlife habitats are presented in Element 6.5. Provisions in the General Plan protect all rare and endangered species in the planning area, as well as provide suitable environ- ments for more common flora and fauna types, As development of the Valley floor takes place, most of the native plant and animal habitats will be destroyed. However, some species including most rodents and birds can be expected to increase their existing population as a result of landscaping. Severe topographic conditions coupled with existing wildlife reserves will prevent development in mountain areas. Flora and fauna will be preserved in its native state in these areas. 4. Open Spacc As vacant land continues to be developed, its use as open space is obviated. Retention of desired open space necessitates action prior to the development of the land for other uses. The Open Space and Conservation Element 6.4 in conjunction with the other components of the Environmental Element 6 outlines various reasons why specific areas should be preserved as open space. 5. Air Quality The issue of air quality is a major concern throughout the nation and particularly in the Southern California region, While it is possible to determine the amounts and types of pollutants by source type, their effect on overall air quality is difficult to measure. Such a determination would involve a regional air pollution study, a task beyond the scope of this report. Figure 9-2 shows the projected tons per day of various air pollutants for mobile sources. The analysis is broken E.8 M in although topography would be altered as development occurs, most land is of little intrinsic value to man, except for those significant topographic areas such as the sand dunes and mountain areas which would be preserved. exposure to earthquake, blowsand, and flood hazard areas can be minimized through the proper use of zoning ordinances and development controls. loss of most of the native plant and animal habitats due to development of the valley floor is minimized by provisions in the General Plan which protect all rare and endangered species in the planning area, as well as provide a suitable environment for more common flora and fauna types. - provisions for the conservation of unique natural areas in the Conservation and Open Space. Element, the preservation of scenic vistas in the Scenic Highways Element, and the increased acquisition of public parks in the Public Facilities Element all serve to offset the loss of existing open space as vacant land is developed. as development occurs, air quality is expected to decline - primarily as a result of the increased number and distance of automobile trips. Although emission control standards are not in local hands, implementation policies in the Land Use and Urban Design Elements could reduce the amount of increase of pollutants by encouraging cluster rather than sprawl deve'opment, thus enabling the eventual use of circu- lation systems other than the private car. controls on future growth will help to minimize the increase in humidity caused by additional development. although an increase in population is expected to alter the social stability and characteristics of the present popula- tion of Palm Desert, implementation of policies presented in the Urban Design Element, Population and Economics Element, and Housing Element should produce beneficial effects on the social fabric of the City. the overall economic impact of the. Plan should have desirable consequences for Palm Desert by insuring a stable economic base, thus allowing the City to meet expenditures and provide a high level of services without a burdensome level of taxa- tion. transportation will be affected by the Circulation Element which contains recommendations for improving existing modes of travel and for the creation of alternative systems.

DISCUSSION OF ANNEXATION REQUEST: As shown on the attached map, the subject property is contiguous to Palm Desert City Limits for a distance of 1,320 feet at the northeast corner of the project known as Sun King Mobile Home Park. Upon receipt of this request for annexation, the staff began review of the area relative to the possibilities of including other parcels in this annexation. All the adjacent property owners were contacted in writing relative to their interest in annexing to the City of Palm Desert as a part of this annexa- tion request. As of this date, no interest has been indicated of any other property owners as to their desire to annex to the City of Palm Desert as a part of this annexation. As shown on Exhibit "B", the assessed value of the parcel requesting annexation is $32,533. Under State Law, a city may annex additional contiguous uninhabited properties into the city to a point where not less than 50% of the total assessed value approve the annexation. Under the proposed assessed values for next year, the City could annex other parcels as follows: 1. See Exhibit "C" 2. See Exhibit "D" Staff is recommending under the recommendation section that the annexation boundaries include the property shown on the attached Exhibit "D", which makes the total annexation approximately 158 acres. II. REQUEST FOR RE -ZONING: Mr. DuBois is also requesting that his property be re -zoned as a part of the annexation. The City's Zoning Ordinance provides for pre -zoning pro- cedures under which the City could consider the appropriate zone for this parcel during the completion of the annexation procedures. Under the re- commendation section, the staff is recommending that pre -zoning procedures be initiated on the total 158 acres to re -zone the property to SI (Service Industrial Zone) or any other appropriate zone. In order to initiate these procedures, the matter must be referred to the Planning Commission for hearings and recommendations. Request for Annexation and -2- June 21, 1976 Re -Zoning from Mr. Dick DuBois III. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That the City Council approve Resolution No. 76-74, initiating the annexation procedures on the territory shown on the attached Exhibit "D", which is shown as Exhibit "A" under the Resolution. 2. That by Minute Motion, the City Council initiate pre -zoning procedures on the total property from existing County Zoning to City Service In- dustrial (SI) or other more appropriate zoning designations and refer the matter to Planning Commission for hearings and action. ,r �ryoykhlr DICK Du Bois, INC. 150 EMERALD BAY LACUNA BEACH, CALIFORNIA HYATT 4•7264 May 10, 1976 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Palm Desert 45-275 Prickly Pear Lane Palm Desert, California 92260 Dear Council Members: As the owner of the following property, I do hereby officially request annexation to the City of Palm Desert: The South half of the Southeast quarter AND the Southeast quarter of the Southwest quarter of Section 9 Township 5 South, Range 6 East, SBB&M.
