CITY OF PALM DESERT
SUMMARY OF PROGRESS TO DATE
HEALTHY CITIES PROJECT 1995-96
1995-96 Palm Desert Healthy Cities Project focused efforts on improving the quality of life of
i Desert residents through the development, promotion and implementation of regular exercise
rams. Not only did Palm Desert initiate various walking programs and promotions, it also
sed on identification of pedestrian areas in need of sidewalk placement and development of a
ity plan to initiate placement of safe pedestrian walkways in highly utilized areas.
In order to encourage Ahe establishment of regular walking routines for Palm Desert residents,
Walkabout Palm Desert, a four month walking program, was developed. Goals were established
with incentive items awarded when goal increments were achieved. Additional promotion of
Walkabout and establishment of exercise programs included the following activities:
> Organization of a Mayor's Walk with over 60 participants walking in a Mayor led walk in
the Civic Center Park
> Participation in the Palm Desert 5K Run/Walk with a booth promoting exercise and
Walkabout Palm Desert. Participants and spectators totaled over 1200 people.
> Creation of press releases, flyers and article in City newsletter
> Ground breaking ceremony for pedestrian bridge linking residential area to Palm Desert
Civic Center Park
> Placement of mile markers in Civic Center Park to provide a mechanism for residents to
track mileage walked
The following activities were conducted as part of the access plan development:
With the assistance of the Department of Public Works, the Healthy Cities Committee completed
a sidewalk placement priority plan. The Committee first identified potential areas of concern for
pedestrian safety. Emphasis was also placed on improving access to major activity areas such as
schools, parks and heavily traveled commercial areas. Secondly, priorities were determined based
on safety issues and pedestrian use. Finally, priorities were incorporated into Palm Desert's 5-year
capital improvement plan and approved by City Council for implementation. The Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) is a planning and budgeting tool prepared by staff for the City Council's
approval. The CIP or budget is a document identifying public improvement (infrastructure) needs
and allocating resources to implement the improvements. The 1996-97 CIP budget is attached as
Exhibit A.
A brochure promoting walking, providing safe exercise tips, and identifying walking routes in Palm
Desert was developed. Brochures have been distributed by the City at events such as the Palm
Desert 5K Run, Mayor's Walk, Springfest and at several locations including the YMCA, Community
Center, Chamber of Commerce and the Senior Center. This marketing effort served to disseminate
the information to a wide variety of Palm Desert residents and visitor's.
Palm Desert's Year 2010 Strategic Plan is a document developed by over 100 community
volunteers, city staff and City Council members. The Plan establishes major goals and objectives
which will focus the direction of the City over the next 14 years. The importance of including health
and safety related goals in this plan was recognized by all participants. Therefore, the Year 2010
Strategic Plan incorporates objectives which take a proactive approach to health and safety related
issues and adopts the Healthy Cities philosophy in future planning efforts. The City of Palm Desert
Year 2010 Strategic Plan is attached as Exhibit B.

An objective of this program was to increase by 5% the number of Palm Desert residents that engage
in physical activity on a regular basis. In order to accurately measure this objective an intern was
to be hired to conduct site surveys throughout the program period. Because of the difficulties
xperienced in hiring an intern within the project time frame this objective was not met. Also, staff
time constraints prohibited this activity from being performed in-house, therefore, this objective was
o longer an option.
lieu of conducting the site surveys, questionnaires were developed and distributed to Walkabout
rticipants. Information gathered from the questionnaire included "are you walking more since
ginning the Walkabout program, noticeable changes in health since participating, and do you plan
continuing your exercise program?" Thirty -Five questionnaires were returned by the walkabout
rticipants. The responses were formulated with participants indicating a 66% increase in their
ercise time.
conclusion, Palm Desert's walking/access program has been successful in achieving program
�ds. Identification of highly utilized pedestrian areas in need of sidewalks assisted in
plementation of a sidewalk placement priority plan. Other funding sources have been accessed
luding CDBG in order to implement plan priorities. Community Development Block Grant
nds are Federal Funds allocated to cities and counties based on population. CDBG funds are
rated to community organizations providing services and improvements for low and moderate
lividuals within our community. The City improved several low and moderate income areas by
istructing much needed sidewalks. Sidewalks were needed for access, recreation and safety
sons. Finally, participation in Walkabout Palm Desert, the Mayor's Walk, the Palm Desert 5K
n/Walk and other city -sponsored events served as a promotion tool for encouraging the
of regular exercise programs.

PALM DESERT HEALTHY CITIES PROJECT
BICYCLE SAFETY PROGRAM
NARRATIVE (1997/98)
In Califomia, bicycle -related injuries continue to be a problem. In 1990, 132 bicyclists were killed
and 16,944 were injured with children being particularly vulnerable. Nearly one fourth of all
significant brain injuries in children 14 years or younger are bicycle related. Despite the fact that
bicycle helmets can reduce the risk of serious head injury by as much as 85%, helmet usage
continues to be low. According to the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records Systems a
total of 24 bicycle collisions occurred in Palm Desert from 1993 through 1996 (Attached as Exhibit
Q. Reasons for non-use include a lack of awareness of the problem, peer pressure, and a lack of
availability.
Identifying the prevalence of bicycle related collisions, Palm Desert and its Healthy Cities Steering
Committee recognized the need for bicycle safety education and the importance of providing
improved bicycle access. Palm Desert intends to address these issues by implementing a
comprehensive bicycle safety program which includes:
a. A bicycle safety promotion campaign and related efforts targeting K-5 students;
b. low cost helmet purchase program;
c. environmental changes including identification of safe bicycle routes, improvement of
visibility with lane signage and striping, and recommendations for placement of additional
bicycle lanes/paths;
d. bicycle registration program to increase contact with bicyclists and provide a tracking
mechanism for lost or stolen bikes. Although registration will be voluntary, not mandatory,
the Steering Committee views this activity as an excellent tool to protect the bicycles and
educate the bicyclists.
In -school workshops will be designed to educate, motivate and reward children for making the right
bicycle safety choices. Sheriff's Department representatives will conduct 6 workshops in an
entertaining and informative way in order to generate enthusiasm among the children. When
children attend one of the training sessions they will be asked to pledge their support of wearing a
helmet whenever they ride. Each student taking the pledge will be eligible to win a bicycle in a
drawing to be held at the end of the project year.
The use of bicycle helmets is a major safety concern in preventing head injuries from bicycle
collisions.. Therefore, Palm Desert will purchase 500 bicycle helmets and provide them for sale at
discount prices during safety trainings and other special events. Proceeds from helmet sales will be
utilized to purchase additional helmets for the program.
Additionally, each school will be provided a minimum of 50 helmets to be distributed to students,
based on financial need. Students being identified as needing a helmet will be asked to "earn" the
helmet by volunteering at one of the events being sponsored by the City (e.g. Bicycle Rodeo or in -
school trainings). After participating in the event the student will be awarded a new bicycle helmet.
Palm Desert's Healthy Cities Committee will make recommendations for physical changes by
identifying appropriate areas for placement of bicycle lanes and routes. A bicycle master plan and
a capital improvement program will be developed in order to address concerns and prioritize lane
and route improvements. Once the bicycle master plan is completed it will be incorporated into the
transportation element of the City's General Plan for implementation.
. me •
Surveys indicating helmet usage before and after project implementation will be conducted by
utilizing crossing guards at major school intersections. Crossing guards will manually count the
number of children riding bicycles and record the number of those wearing helmets versus those not
wearing helmets. The crossing guard can safely and effectively conduct counts as a part of their
daily assignment. A form will be provided to the crossing guards to accurately count bicycle helmet
usage and ridership numbers. The City has effectively utilized the crossing guards to count students
crossing at intersections in the past. This activity will not jeopardize student or guard safety. This
activity will occur twice during the program period: once prior to implementing activities and at
completion of program goals and objectives.
Palm Desert will prepare an analysis of existing bike lanes and conduct a needs assessment for
placement of additional bike lanes. Based on the needs assessment, staff will set priorities for
striping of additional lanes. Staff will document the increase in the number of miles of bike lanes
placed throughout Palm Desert.

PROPOSED MASTER PLAN
March 1997
The proposed master plan has evolved in response to the stated planning goals and objectives and
with substantial campus and community input. The plan has incorporated the following design
concepts:
A. Open Space Network and Water Feature as the Unifying Elements
An open space network and a lake will provide the primary structure to the master plan in
unifying all land use elements. These features will become signature elements of the campus
t and will provide the framework for character development for the center. They will also
establish the parameters for precinct development by defining precinct locations and connect
precincts with malls, walkways, courtyards and plazas. In the course of future campus
development, open space will unify different architectural styles and create a campus image
with prominent entrances, vibrant plazas and spacious malls.
B. Academic Precincts as Organizing Element
The academic master plan for the future CSU campus projects an academic program
comprised of five schools: Humanities, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Business and Public
Administration, Natural Sciences, Education, and Engineering. The master plan utilizes
academic precincts as an organizing feature of the campus plan. It enables the campus to
integrate academic programs and to locate schools and departments in the appropriate
functional relationship to each other. With academic precincts, college and departments can
plan for their own growth within a defined campus area, and it allows for rational growth for
the entire campus. A campus plan based on academic precincts is understandable for the
students, the faculty, staff and visitors. It also minimizes the walking distance between
classes, laboratories, offices and Resource Center.
C. Central Pedestrian Academic Core
The plan proposes an 800 feet radius, 46.2 acres, academic core occupying the center of the
site. It contains the precincts for four (4) academic schools (Education; Social and
Behavioral Sciences, Natural Sciences, and Engineering), Administration, Commons,
Student Union, Bookstore, Resource Center and perimeter parking facilities.
� � A
The academic core will be designed to exclude vehicular traffic and is comprised of an open
space network and a lake as the two signature elements for the campus.
D. Campus as a High Quality Entry Statement for an Important Portal to the City of Palm
Desert
With the location of the site, the campus is poised to provide the opportunity to formulate
the image of the city and the region as it is located along one of the city's major points of
access from Interstate 10. It serves to introduce people to the City of Palm Desert as well
as a major higher educational center for the region.
1 As Phase I of the plan, it provides for the completion of developments along the Cook Street
corridor. All future developments that would detract from the beauty along Cook Street are
} either shielded or removed from the vehicular and pedestrian perspectives along Cook Street.
1 The plan also provides for the planning and execution of major entry statements, potentially
involving the Art In Public Places Program, along Cook Street and Gerald Ford Drive.
Additionally, the plan provides for the development of pedestrian plazas at the intersection
of Cook Street, Gerald Ford Drive and Frank Sinatra Drive. The plazas will incorporate
major monuments for the identification of the campus, pedestrian walkways from the
intersections to the campus ring roads, and view corridors for travelers along Cook Street to
be able to view the pond, open space and buildings within the academic core.
E. Circulation. Parking and Utility
The campus is served by an existing system of federal and state highways, county arteries
and local roads. As conceived in the plan, there is a single, main ceremonial entrance to the
campus from Gerald Ford Drive, and three additional entrances of varying degrees of
importance from Cook Street, Gerald Ford Drive and Frank Sinatra Drive. This affords
widely dispersed access to and from the campus.
The entry roads connect to an inner circular road system which gives access to individual
parking and service facilities. Bicycle lanes are provided as an integral part of the circular
road and bicycle parking will be provided at strategic locations within the academic core as
the campus develops.
A major utility ductbank will be developed in the median of the circular road. At strategic
locations, radial laterals will be developed to provide connectivity and service to future
buildings.
Parking is provided by means of surface parking lots and parking structures. They are
located in close proximity to the academic precincts, within a five minute walking distance
of the main academic buildings. Surface parking lots are positioned to be sheltered from the
strong Santa Ana winds by the building masses. Where parking structures would be
constructed, connecting bridges between the parking structures and academic buildings are
recommended.
