REQUEST FOR CONSIDERATION. OF A CHANGE OF ZONE FROM R- 1-12,000 (SINGLE-FAMILY ZONE REQUIRING MINIMUM 12,000 SQ. FT. LOTS) TO PR-5 (PLANNED RESIDENTIAL, MAXIMUM FIVE UNITS PER ACRE) AND NEGATIVE DECLARATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT TO ALLOW CONSTRUCTION OF A 390 UNIT RESIDENTIAL PROJECT (134 DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES AND 256 RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS) ON 81.6 ACRES AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF COUNTRY CLUB DRIVE AND PORTOLA AVENUE. McBAIL COMPANY, APLICANT. CASE NO. C/Z 84-12. (Continued from the meeting of September 27, 1984. Mayor Snyder noted this was a continued public hearing and asked Mr. Diaz for additional staff report. Mr. Diaz reported that this requested change of zone and precise plan would permit staff and the developer to re-evalute the project and the concerns raised by the Council. The first and most prominent issue relates to the question of density. The development calls for a density of 4.77 or 4.8 units per acre. The General Plan has identified this area as a low density area; that is, a density of 3 to S units per acre. The density ranges are not meant as strictly "minimums" or "maximums". The lower figure for each category represents a "guaranteed" density and the higher figure represents a "potential" density that could be located in each area after certain standards and criteria are met. The following is the list of standards the City applied to determine density ranges: (1) the slope of the land (land is flat); (2) compatibility with surrounding land uses (zoning and developments (3) flood plain protection (OK) (4) adequacy of public facilities such .as water, sewers, gas, and electricity (OK); (5) proximity to schools, recreation, health care facilities, commercial areas, and employment; (6) access and proximity to major streets; (7) preservation of unique and desirable natural resources and vegetation; (8) consistency with other elements of the General Plan, and (9) absence of negative environmental conditions such as noise, traffic, and seismic activity. He stated that all project requests are filtered through this criteria process, and the conditions of approval identified for any development reflect this criteria with each project evaluated on its own merits. When a project or proposed change of zone does not affirmatively meet these criteria, it is rejected and the Planning Commission and/or Council has on occasion rejected zone change requests. Mr. Diaz further reported that one question that is asked is whether there are benefits to the public from approval of the change of zone, but this is something that is not required. However, he pointed out that there would be some benefits directly related to the project and density, such as dedication of a fire station in addition to payment of -3- MINUTES REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 11, 1934 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * fire impact fees, $628 per unit school impact fees, and $50 per unit signalization fees. He stated that without a change of zone, this type of development could not occur. To date, all residential developments on Country Club Drive have been of the country club, tennis club, or private condominium variety with deep project setbacks, meandering walks, and extensive landscaping, security, and private streets. The development of this site would result in the widening of Portola Avenue to its ultimate width from Country Club to Hovley Lane. Mr. Diaz referred to the following sections of the General Plan: 25.24.050 Maximum Protect Densities - The maximum project density shall be as expressed in dwelling units per acre gross acre of not more than the number following the zoning symbol PR. The City Council shall determine the densities to be allowed within each PR district at the time the involved properties are rezoned and as designated on the zoning map within the following range: one to eighteen dwelling units maximum per average gross acre. The density designation shall mean dwelling units per average gross acre. For example, PR-7 means a ,planned residential development with seven units per gross acre. 25.24.010 Purpose - It is the purpose of the PR district to provide for flexibility in development, creative and imaginative design, and the development of parcels of land as coordinated projects involving a mixture of residential densities. Mr. Diaz concluded his report by stating that staff would continue to recommend approval of the change of zone as requested. He noted, however, that the proposed ordinance should be amended to reflect that the applicant will pay all applicable fire fees, along with donating a site for the fire station, and will improve Country Club and Portola adjacent to the site. Mayor Snyder invited input from the applicant, and Mr. Mike Gallagher, McBail Company, addressed the Council with the following points: He reiterated his company's position that they had been in Palm Desert since 1978. They were very proud of their Sagewood development located on Monterey Avenue and Country Club Drive. He noted that his firm had owned the property in question since 1980 and pointed out that the majority of the property surrounding their land was zoned PR-5, with some property zoned as high as 22 units to the acre. He stated that they could not develop the land at 1 unit per 12,000 square feet as presently zoned as the lender would not approve a loan on such a large lot development. He asked for parity with the surrounding density. Mr. Gallagher stated his interpretation of the General Plan was that it meant that 5 acres was an acceptable density. He noted his project would benefit the community in that Portola and Country Club will be Improved, and he had not seen any evidence that the increased density would create problems in the area in question. He stated that his firm could only build what they could sell, and they could not build a successful development with 1 unit per 12,000 square feet. He noted that his company would be making a monetary contribution and improvement to the community well over $3 million. With respect to reducing the density from 5 units to 4 units, Mr. Gallagher stated that this would mean a loss of 64 units, or 16% decrease, in their proposed project. He stated that this decrease would make the project unfeasible to complete, as it would increase the selling price as well as the monthly maintenance fees for the new owners of the homes. Mr. Gallagher concluded his remarks by urging the Council's approval of his request. The very lowest density they could accept and still build was 4.5. Mayor Snyder invited input in OPPOSITION to the request, and none was offered. He declared the public hearing closed. Councilman Wilson referred to the staff report which stated that the City Attorney had attended one of the meetings and would be reporting to the Council. Essentially, his position was that It is really not a -4- MINUTES --- REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 11, 1984 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * requirement that a developer show benefit to the City that a change of zone would provide. Rather, the onus is on the City to show that the requested change of zone is: (1) not consistent with the General Plan; (2) not compatible with adjacent proposed land used; (3) not compatible with the density permitted in adjacent areas; and (4) endangering the public peace, health, safety, and general welfare. Wilson asked for the City Attorney's comments relative to this statement in the staff report. Mr. Erwin responded that the courts will look at the General Plan as the basic document when reviewing changes of zone, rather than the zoning map or the zoning ordinance. Councilmember Jackson moved to waive further reading and pass Ordinance No. 396 to second reading, amended to reflect that the applicant will pay all applicable fire fees, along with donating a fire station site at the corner of Country Club and Portola Avenue and will additionally improve Country Club and Portola Drives adjacent to the site. Councilman Kelly seconded the motion. Councilman Wilson moved to amend the motion and Ordinance No. 396 to .incorporate the developer's offer to change the. density from 5 units to the acre ..to 4.5 units to the acre. Councilman Puluqi seconded the motion. Councilman Wilson's motion to amend Councilmember Jackson's motion failed on a 3-2 vote, with Councilmembers Wilson and Puluqi voting YES and Councilmembers Kelly, Jackson, and Snyder voting NO. Councilmember Jackson's motion to waive further reading and pass Ordinance No. 396 to second reading as amended was approved on a 3-2 vote, with Councilmembers Puluqi and Wilson voting NO. B. REQUEST FOR CONFIRMATION OF PER PARCEL ASSESSMENTS FOR LOT ABATEMENT CHARGES. Mayor Snyder declared the public hearing open and asked Mr. Altman for the staff report. Mr. Altman reported that subsequent to the public hearing which had been legally noticed, the property owner had paid the assessment. Therefore, there was no action required by the Council. Mayor Snyder invited public input, and none was offered. He declared the public hearing closed. No action was taken by the Council. IX. RESOLUTIONS None X. ORDINANCES For Introduction: A. ORDINANCE NO. 395 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 10.26.010 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE RELATIVE TO ESTABLISHING NEW SPEED ZONES. (Continued from the meeting of September 27, 1984.) Mr. Altman reported that this had been discussed at great length in Study Session. For the benefit of the audience, he asked Mr. McClellan to explain the City's position In posting speed zones in the City. Mr. McClellan „ —1 that before- the. City could post an enforceable speed zone,. a. traffic survey taad to be conducted. He stated that such a survey had been conducted on Shadow Mountain Drive wherein results showed that 8O% of the traffic on Shadow Mountain traveled at 35 mph. Councilman Kelly noted that the current speed zone on that street was 25 mph; however, It was not. posted. The City, because of the warrants from the traffic survey, had no option but to post it at 35 mph, higher than the existing speed zone. Mr. McClellan pointed out that the -5- MINUTES REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 11, 19E4 * • * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Sheriffs Department could not enforce any speed zone unless signs were posted on the street and because of the traffic study, only 35 mph could be posted. MR. BROOKS O'KELLY, 73-070 Shadow Mountain Drive, Palm Desert, addressed the Council stating that he had been a resident on Shadow Mountain Drive for the last 7 years. He stated that he and his neighbors observed cars traveling in excess of 50 and 60 mph in an area highly populated with children. He stated that young and old walk the street and that many children were on the streets in the mornings and the afternoons waiting for school busses. He emphasized the potential danger of the high speeds on the street. Councilman Wilson stated that while he agreed that 35 miles an hour might be too high a speed zone, he could understand staffs position that the City must post the speed reflected in the traffic study. He suggested that the Council go ahead and approve the proposed ordinance, stipulating the 35 mph speed zone and once posted, have the Sheriff's Department really start enforcing traffic in the .hopesthat the.. speed could be reduced in a future traffic study. Upon motion by Wilson, second by 3ackson, Ordinance No. 395 was passed to second reading by a 3-2 vote with Councilmen Puluqi and Kelly voting NO. Councilman Wilson stated that his motion should include direction to staff to have the City's traffic control unit begin patrolling and enforcing the new speed limit as soon as it went into effect. Council concurred. For Adoption: A. ORDINANCE NO. 390 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 2.20.020 OF THE PALM DESERT MUNICIPAL CODE AS IT RELATES TO PLANNING COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS. Councilman Kelly stated that he had a problem with the revised wording of the ordinance which permitted a majority vote of the Council to appoint a Planning Commissioner. He stated that the way it was worded, two members of the City Council if only three were present could in essence appoint a Planning Commissioner. He felt that more than two members should be required for such an appointment. He recommended that the wording be changed to read "by three affirmative votes", which still would give the majority of the five member Council the ability to appoint a Planning Commissioner. Councilman Puluqi moved to waive further reading and adopt Ordinance No. 390 with this minor modification in the wording. Councilman Wilson seconded the motion, and the motion carried by unanimous vote. MAYOR SNYDER CALLED A RECESS AT &25 P.M. AND RECONVENED THE MEETING AT 8:40 P.M. XI. CONSENT ITEMS HELD OVER None Xll. NEW BUSINESS A. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF PARTICIPATION IN A NON - PROPERTY TAX STUDY BY CLAREMONT McKENNA COLLEGE. Mr. Ortega explained that the City had been contacted by Temple City relative to a study it was conducting with Claremont McKenna College as to the affects of legislation on no -property tax cities. Such a study could be used to support legislation favorable to non -property tax cities or litigation to resolve the property tax inequities. The proposed study would be done in two phases. The first phase would cost $15,000 and the second phase from $20,000 to $25,000. He stated that Temple City had underwritten the first phase, which cost $13,000, and had signed a contract with the College to complete such a study. Mr. Ortega -6- MINUTES REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING . OCTOEE . 11, 1984 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * -* -* •* * *• * •* *• * * * . recommended that the City of Palm Desert participate to the extent of $1,000 in the second phase of the study. Councilman Puluqi moved? by Minute Motion, approve the request and authorize participation not to exceed $ 1,000 in the Non -property tax study by Claremont McKenna College. Councilman Kelly seconded the motion. Motion carried by a 4-1 vote, with Councilman Wilson voting NO in that he felt there were thousands of studies going on, and there could be no end to this City's contributions to such studies. B. REQUEST FOR SUPPORT FOR A PARK AND RECREATION GRANT MONEY APPLICATION BY THE SENIORS ASSOCIATION FOR USE TO CONSTRUCT A BOWLING GREEN. Mr. Altman reported that this had been discussed in Study Session and was at the request of the Joslyn Cove Communities Senior Center. Mrs. Gilligan noted that two resolutions were required rather than the one reflected on the Agenda, and the second resolution should be . numbered 84-137, with the following tines "A Resolution of the City , - . Council of the City of Palm Desert, California, Endorsing the Filing of a Claim for California Park and Recreation Facilities Act of 1984 Local Assistance Grant for the Purpose of Constructing a. Recreational Facility at the Joslyn Cove Communities Senior Center". Upon motion by Puluqi, second by Jackson, Resolution Nos. 84-136 and 84-137 were adopted by unanimous vote of the Council. XM. CONTINUED BUSINESS A. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF NEW FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH COACHELLA VALLEY TELEVISION. Mr. Altman reported that this item had been discussed at length in Study Session. He noted that Council had indicated concerns relative to an automatic rate increase being included in this new franchise inasmuch as Council felt each year the CVTC should apply for its approval. Mr. Ortega noted that the Council had also expressed concerns relative to the severability clause in the new franchise and stated that there would be no problem in deleting that particular section. He reviewed other minor changes made to the franchise and requested Council's approval of same. Upon motion by Puluqi, second by Wilson, the new franchise agreement with Coachella Valley Television was approved as amended by unanimous vote of the Council. B. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF REDUCTION IN DRAINAGE FEES, DESERT EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH, APPLICANT. Mr. McClellan reviewed the staff report and justification for his recommendation to deny the request for reduction in drainage fees for the church. Upon invitation by Mayor Snyder, MR. BOBBY BLAIR, 159 Las Lomas Avenue, Palm Desert, addressed the Council stating that while his church was aware that the City's requirements must be met, since the drainage improvements were not going to be constructed for some time and since the monies for these fees must be gathered from his congregation, he asked Council's approval of a Letter of Credit which would permit them to pay these fees at a later date. In addition, at this time he asked that they also be allowed to post a Letter of Credit in lieu of cash for required street improvements. He pointed out that the proposed development was in an area of the street where there was no adjacent development, only vacant land. He felt that to improve, the street for only their portion at this time would be impractical... He requested Council's consideration and approval of some type of Surety Bond or Letter of Credit for street improvements at a later date. -7- MINUTES REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 11, 1984 • • • • • * * • • • • • * • * • • • • * * • * • * * • * • • * • * MR. ALAN LEVINE, 74-303 Highway 111, Palm Desert, addressed the Council as the Engineer for the new church. He pointed out that $50,000 to $70,000 would be required for these street improvements, and he felt that Installation of such would be more beneficial in conjunction with other development as it went on. Mr. Blair acknowledged this. Councilman Puluqi stated his concurrence that it would be more practical to improve the street all at once when other development occurs. He also indicated his sympathy for the congregation who was trying to raise enough money to build the church let alone post money for street improvements and drainage improvements which are going to be made at a later date. He stated his favor of some type of Letter of Credit or Surety Bond being accepted by the City. Councilman Wilson stated his concurrence but noted that there would be an inflation factor built into any Letter of Credit or Surety Bond. If the street improvements and drainage improvements cost more at the .time .the City demands their installation,then the Church will be required to come up with possibly more money. Councilman Puluqi moved to, by Minute Motion, authorize staff to accept a Letter of Credit from the Desert Evangelical Free Church for its required drainage fees for a maximum period of one year, and to authorize staff to accept a Surety Bond from the Desert Evangelical Free Church for Its required street improvements, said Surety for a period of five years or until the surrounding property develops, whichever occurs first. Motion was seconded by Jackson and carried by unanimous vote of the Council. XIV. OLD BUSINESS A. REQUEST FOR AWARD OF CONTRACT NO. 1077 FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF DEEP CANYON DRAINAGE STRUCTURE. Mr. Altman reported that this item had been explained and discussed in Study Session and offered to answer any questions Council might have. There were none. Councilman Puluqi moved to, by Minute Motion: (1) Reject all bids received for Contract No. 1077A; and (2) determine that the project can be done in a more economical manner and authorize the Director of Public Works to negotiate a contract in accordance with Section 20167 of the Public Contracts Code. Councilmember Jackson seconded the motion. Motion carried by unanimous vote of the Council. XV. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS - B • None XVI. REPORTS AND REMARKS A. CITY MANAGER 1. FIRE STATION Mr. Altman reported that the City Attorney had given the contractor notice that their contract was cancelled because they did not meet the requirements that he stipulated in an earlier notice. It was his recommendation that the City Council authorize staff to negotiate a contract to complete the list of corrections pending on the Fire Station. He noted that it was contemplated that the cost would be paid from the remaining retention and contract fund balance that is available from the original contractor. Councilman Puluqi moved to, by Minute Motion, authorize staff to negotiate a contract to complete the correction list on the Fire Station. Councilmember Jackson seconded the motion. Motion carried by unanimous vote of the Council. -8- MINUTES REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 11, 1984 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 2. SIGNALIZATION OF MONTEREY AVENUE AND FRED WARING DRIVE Mr. Altman reported that the City had received approved plans from Caltrans and was ready to seek bids for the subject traffic signal installation. He recommended Council's authorization to call for bids. Councilman Puluqi moved to, by Minute Motion, authorize the City Clerk to advertise and call for bids for the installation of a traffic signal at the corner of Fred Waring Drive and Monterey Avenue in Palm Desert. Councilmember Jackson seconded the motion. Motion carried by unanimous vote of the Council. 3. WAIVER OF FEES FOR PROCESSING OF LOT SPLIT ADJUSTMENTS IN BUCKBOARD TRAIL AND BIRDIE WAY IN PALM DESERT. Mr. Altman reported that under the County years ago, condominiums were constructed on the subject property and. no lot split had occurred. Therefore, owners had no clear record of title to the land on which their units were built. If a unit were to be destroyed by fire, the owner would not be able to rebuild under the City's current zoning. Additionally, owners cannot currently sell their units without taking the mortgage paper back themselves because lending institutions will not loan on the property because it does not have clear title to the land. Mr. Altman stated that it was staff's feeling that because of the prior County designation, these owners were being unjustly penalized now in trying to correct the error through the City. Councilman Puluqi moved to, by Minute Motion, waive fees for processing the necessary paperwork through the City to correct these lot split adjustments. Motion was seconded by Jackson and carried by unanimous vote of the Council. 4. EMPLOYEES HALLOWEEN PARTY Councilman Puluqi moved to, by Minute Motion, appropriate $125.00 to be used for an Employees' Halloween Party.
