A. REOUEST FOR APPROVAL OF CONTRACT *RD-122 - CONSULTANT
SERVICES FOR MASTER PLAN FOR CIVIC CENTER SITE AND
AUTHORIZATION FOR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO ENTER INTO
AGREEMENT WITH KENNEDY/JENKS/CHILTON.
Mr. Ortega reviewed the staff report and stated that a
committee comprised of staff members, Councilmembers, and
Planning Commissioners had interviewed several
architectural firms that had submitted proposals and that
extensive background checks had been made on the firm
selected, that firm being Kennedy/Jenks/Chilton, and
staff was now recommending that the Agency Board approve
the agreement before it. He concluded his statements by
noting that Mr. Rick Holden, a local architect, was a
member of this team.
Member Wilson moved to, by Minute Motion, approve the agreement
for consultant services and authorize the Executive Director to enter
into an agreement with Kennedy/Jenks/Chilton to accomplish the Master
Plan for the Civic Center Site. Motion was seconded by Benson and
carried by unanimous vote.
B. REQUEST FOR CONSIDERATION OF EXTENSION OF MAGNESIA FALLS
DRIVE WEST OF PORTOLA AVENUE.
Mr. Folkers reviewed the staff report and recommendation.

was concerned about it conflicting with the future
extension of Magnesia Falls Drive.
Upon further clarification from staff that this would not be a
conflict, Member Snyder moved to authorize staff to go ahead with the
understanding that nothing would go in that would not be compatible with
the future extension of Magnesia Falls Drive and that staff further be
directed to investigate right-of-way that had been granted to the
City by past developers. Member Wilson seconded the motion. Motion
carried by unanimous vote.
Chairman Kelly expressed concern with the moving of the
signal from Rutledge Way to this entrance.
Mr. Altman responded that children crossing on Portola
would be taken to the signal at the new location which
would ensure traffic safety.
Member Snyder moved to, by Minute Motion, approve the concept
of extending Magnesia Falls Drive west of Portola Avenue as the new entry
for the Palm Desert Mobile Park; 2) authorize additional engineering
design as part of the contract with ASL Consulting Engineers for the
necessary engineering in an amount of $3,000; 3) authorize staff to
negotiate with Colich Construction Company to perform the Magnesia Falls
extension improvements; and 4) appropriate $120,000 from Redevelopment
Agency funding for construction of the Magnesia Falls Extension
improvements. Member Wilson seconded the motion. Motion carried by
unanimous vote.
