Status of Lona-range Property Management Plan OCTOBER 7, 2013 Mr. Wohlmuth updated the Board on the status of the Long-range Property Management Plan (LRPMP) it previously approved at the June Meeting and was forwarded to the California Department of Finance (DOF). He said DOF has asked several follow-up questions, Palm Desert has responded, and most recently DOF has indicated that it probably wouldn't be approved until late November. He added that the LRPMP, combined with the Finding of Completion, enables Palm Desert to utilize its bond proceeds and dispose of property — using those designated as "Government Purpose," which would also take care of the Cal State land once the LRPMP is approved.
