A RESOLUTION OF THE PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT
� AGENCY ADOPTING A FfVE-YEAR IMPLEMENTATION
PLAN FOR THE AGENCY'S REDEVELOPMENT
PROJECT AREAS; AND ADOPTING THE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PRODUCTION PLAN, AND MAKING FINDINGS
APPROVING THE AGGREGATION OF NEW OR
SUBSTANTIALLY REHABILITATED DWELLING UNITS
AMONG THE PROJECT AREAS
WHEREAS, Section 33490(a}(1)(A) of the California Community
Redevelopment Law, Heaith and Safety Code 33000 et.seg. ("Law") requires all
redevelopment agencies to adopt an Implementation Plan every five years,
following a duly noticed public hearing, and
WHEREAS, Section 33490(a)(1)(A) requires that the Implementation Plan
contain the specific goals and objectives of the agency for the project areas, the
specific programs, including potential projects, and estimated expenditures
proposed to be made during the next five years, and an explanation of how the
goals and objectives, programs, and expenditures will eliminate blight within the
project areas and implement the requirements of Sections 33334.2, 33334.4,
33334.6, and 33413 of Law, and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 33490 of the Law, the Palm Desert
`— Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") has prepared a Five-Year Implementation
Plan, including a Ten Year Affordable Housing Compliance Plan, for Project Area
No. 1(Original and Added Temtory), Project Area No. 2, Project Area No. 3 and Project
Area No. 4, contained herewith as Exhibit A, and
WHEREAS, Section 33413(b)(2)(A)(v) authorizes the Agency to aggregate new
or substantially rehabilitated dwelling units in one or more project areas if the Agency
finds, based on substantial evidence, after a public hearing, that the aggregation will not
cause or exacerbate racial, ethnic or economic segregation, and
WHEREAS, the Agency held, on November 18, 2004, a noticed public hearing
regarding the Implementation Plan and regarding the aggregation of new or substantially
rehabilitated dwelling units in Project Area No. 1, As Amended, Project Area No, 2,
Project Area No, 3 and Project Area No. 4, and
WHEREAS, substantial evidence has been presented to the Agency which
demonstrates that:
A. The population of the City of Palm Desert is 88.19% white; 1.1 % Black;
20.47% Hispanic; 2.25% Asian; and approximately 6.34% of the Palm
Desert population is of some other race. The distribution of racial and
ethnic groups is further detailed by Project Area in the attached Exhibit 1.
The data provided in Exhibit 1 demonstrates that the racial makeup of
— each Project Area, with the exception of Project Area No. 2, is like that of
RESOLUTION NO. 496
the City itself. However it cannot be assumed that racial, ethnic or
economic segregation has developed or will be exacerbated. The
population of Project Area No 2 is 92.76% white; 1.21 °/a Black; 12.10%
Hispanic; 2.04% Asian; and approximately 2.6% of Project Area No. 2 is of
some other race. As Project Area No. 2 has the smallest current
population of any Project Area and the majority of developable land for
housing of any Project Area it can be inferred that as this Project Area is
built out, it will take on the demographic characteristics of the City much
like the other Project Areas which have already seen significant
development.
B. The median family income and percentage of families living below the
median income for the City of Palm Desert is documented for each
Project Area and the City itself in Exhibit 2. This exhibit details the
income characteristics for both 2000 and 2004 populations. The
percentage increase of families in each Project Area with incomes below
the City's median income from 2000 through 2004 is consistent with the
increase for the City itself, with the exception of Project Area No. 2. As
Project Area No. 1(Original and Added Area), Project Area No. 3 and
Project Area No. 4 are consisten! with the City in their median income
levels and percentage of population living below the Ciry median income
it is clearly evident that the aggregation of units will not cause or
exacerbate racial, ethnic or economic segregation. Project Area No. 2
has yet to benefit from substantia! housing development and in fact has
the greatest amount of developable land of any Project Area. An
estimated 2,767 units can be constructed. Many of these units would be
reserved for very low, low and moderate income families. In fact,
aggregation will have little effect in Project Area No. 2 as most housing is
to be developed in this Project Area and the effect of such development
will be to more evenly distribute race, ethnicity and income.
C. Each Project Area is of a different size and shape, each has its own
capacity for housing development. Presently, a majority of developable
land for residential units is available in Project Area No. 2 where
approximately 2,767 units can be constructed. Project Area No. 1
(Original and Added Territory) is second with a potential 777 units, Project
Area No. 3 follows with 554 potential units and Project Area No. 4 has the
potential for an additional 76 units. The remaining units to be constructed
in Project Area No. 1(Original and Added Area), Project Area No. 3 and
Project Area No. 4 will continue to mimic the racial, ethnic and income
characteristics of the City and Project Area. Project Area No. 2 which has
the vast amount of potential units will see the most significant change in
its racial, ethnic and economic structure. However this change will not
cause or exacerbate racial, ethnic or economic segregation but will in fact
lead to a more diverse area mimicking that of Project Area No. 1(Original
and Added Area), Project Area No. 3, Project Area No. 4 and the City
itself.
RESOLUTION N0.496
WHEREAS, the Agency seeks more flexibility to assist affordable housing units
in various areas within the City of Palm Desert.
` NOW, THEREFORE, the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency does hereby find,
determine and resolve as follows:
Section 1. The Agency hereby adqpts the Five-Year lmplementation Plan
for Project Area No. 1(Original and Added Territory}, Project Area No. 2, Project Area
No. 3 and Project Area No. 4, attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Section 2. Based on information and testimony presented to the Agency, the
Agency hereby finds, in accordance with California Health and Safety Code Section
33413(b){2)(A)(v), the aggregation of new or substantially rehabilitated dwelling units in
Project Area No. 1(Original and Added Territory), Project Area No. 2, Project Area No. 3
and Project Area No. 4 will not cause or exacerbate racial, ethnic or economic
segregation.

. .
This document is the third Five-Year Implementation Plan for the Palm Desert Redevelopment
Agency (the "Agency") of the City of Palm Desert (the "City") for fiscal years 2004-2005 through
2008-2009. This is the Agency's third implementation plan prepared since the enactment of
Assembly Bill 1290 which amended the Califomia Redevelopment Law by adding Section
33490. The Implementation Plan is divided into two separate components: a non-housing or
redevelopment component and a housing component, which is presented as the Affordable
Housing Compliance Plan attached to this Implementation Plan as Appendix 1. Section 33490
requires that each redevelopment agency, which has adopted a redevelopment plan prior to
December 31, 1993, adopt, after a public hearing, an implementation plan that contains the
specific goals and objectives of the agency for its project area(s). The implementation plan
must identify the specffic programs/projects and expenditures proposed to be made during the
five (5) year term of the implementation plan; provide an explanation of how the goals and
objectives, programs, and expenditures will eliminate blight within the agency's project area(s);
and implement the housing requirements contained in the Law. Pursuant to Section 33490, the
implementation plans, where required, were to be adopted no later than December 30, 1994
with subsequent implementation plans adopted each five (5) years thereafter.
The City Council of the City of Palm Dese� teek actio� in October of 1974 to establish the Palm
Desert Redevelopment Agency. With this action the City embarked on a comprehensive effort
to eliminate blighting and adverse conditions within the City. The focus of the City's
revitalization efforts has been channeled through the adoption and implementation of its
Redevelopment Plans. The Agency's first redevelopment project area, Project Area No. 1, was
adopted in July of 1975 and subsequently amended in 1982 to add territory. Since then, the
Agency has adopted three (3) additional redevelopment project areas; Project Area No. 2—
established in 1987; Project Area No. 3— established in 1991; and Project Area No. 4—
established in 1993. The Agency has accomplished numerous redevelopment, development,
and infrastructure projects that have revitalized many properties within all of its Project Areas.
The Agency has also made a substantial effort to improve and increase the City's supply of
affo�dable housing. The Agency has four (4) adopted redevelopment project areas
encompassing an estimated 11,771 acres of the City's incorporated territory.

CONTENTS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
_. Section 33490 of the California Community Redevelopment Law ("Law°) requires that the
Implementation Plan include the following information:
■ specific goals and objectives of the Agency for the Project Areas
• the specific programs, including potential projects, and estimated expenditures proposed
to be made during the next five years, and
an explanation of how the goals and objectives, programs, and expenditures will
eliminate blight within the Project Areas and will improve and increase the supply of
housing affordable to very low, low, and moderate income households.
The Law also requires that the Implementation Plan address the Agency's affordable housing
production needs and achievements; these items are specifically addressed in the Affordable
Housing Compliance Plan, which is found at the end of this Implementation Plan.
Background I
The Agency was established pursuant to the Califomia Community Redevelopment Law, Heafth
8 Safety Code Section 33000 et seq. (the "Law"). The City Council adopted Ordinance No. 53
on October 24, 1974, which activated the Agency. The Agency is govemed by a five (5)
member board, which consists of all members of the City Council. The Mayor, who acts as
Chairperson of the Agency, is appointed by the City Council. As previously stated, the Agency
— has four (4) adopted redevelopment project areas encompassing an estimated 11,771 acres of
the City's incorporated territory. The Agency's four (4) redevelopment project areas are Project
Area No. 1(the Original and Added Territory), Project Area No. 2, Project Anea No. 3, and
Project Area No. 4(collectively referred to as the "Project Areas"). Over the past 28 years, the
Agency has accomplished numerous redevelopment, development, and infrastructure projects
that have revitalized many properties within all of its Project Areas.
In December of 1994, the Agency adopted its first Five-Year Implementation Plan (FY 1994-
1999). The second Five-Year Implementation Plan was adopted in December of 1999 (FY
1999-2004). Both Five-Year Implementation Plans cover the four (4) adopted redevelopment
project areas that encompass an estimated 11,771 acres of the City's incorporated territory.
Additionally, pursuant to the requirements of 1he Law, the Agency has held a mid-term public
hearing on the progress of each Five Year Implementation Plan and has subsequently prepared
a Progress Report for each plan.

Redevelopment projects are established to remedy conditions of blight as defined by the Law
that is in effect af the time a r�development project is adopted. The Law's definition of what
constitutes blight has changed substantially since the Project Areas were established in 1975,
1981, 1987, 1991 and 1993. The Law s current blight definition is set forth below:
Unsafe/Dilapidated/Deteriorated Buildings. Buildings in which it is unsafe or
unhealthy for persons to live or woiic. These conditions can be caused by serious
building code violations, dilapidation and deterioration, defective design or physical
construction, faulty or inadequate utilities, or other similar factors.
Physical Conditions that Limit the Economic Viability and Use of Lots/Buildings.
Factors that prevent or substantially hinder the economically viable use or capacity of
buildings or lots. This condition can be caused by a substanda�d design, inadequate
size given present standards and market conditions, lack of parking, or other similar
factors.

■ Incompatible Uses. Adjacent or nearby uses that are incompatible with each other and
which prevent the economic development of those parcels or other portions of the
project area. —
• Lots of Irregular Shape, Inadequate Size, and Under Multiple Ownership. The
existence of subdivided lots of irregular form and shape and inadequate size for proper
usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership.
■ Depreciated/Stagnant Property Values; Impaired Investments. Depreciated or
stagnant property values or impaired investments, including, but not necessarily limited
to, those properties containing hazardous wastes that r�equire the use of agency
authority as specified in Article 12.5 (commencing with Section 33459).
■ High Business Turnovers and Vacancies/Low Lease Rates/Abandoned
BuildingsNacant Lots. Abnormally high business vacancies, abnormally low iease
rates, high turnover rates, abandoned buildings, or excessive vacant lots within an area
developed for urban use and served by utilities.
■ Lack of Neighborhood Commercial Facilities. A lack of necessary commercial
facilities that are normally found in neighborhoods, including grocery stores, drug stores,
and banks and other lending institutions.
• Overcrowding/Excess of Adult Businesses. Residential overcrowding or an excess
of bars, liquor stores, or other businesses that cater exclusively to adults, which has led
to problems of public safety and welfare.
■ High Crime Rates. A high crime rate that constitutes a serious threat to the public
safety and welfare.
The Law also characterizes inadequate public improvements as blight when one or more of the
above physical conditions and one or more of the economic conditions are also present.
Despite the success of redevelopment activities to date, many of the blighting conditions that
were prevalent in the Project Areas when they were adopted are still present today. A recent
review of the Project Areas has confirmed that the Projects still contain the following blighting
conditions as defined by the Law's definitions in place at the time of each Project Areas'
adoption:
• Buildings or structures suffering form age, obsolescence and deterioration.
� Some properties within the Project Areas suffer from defective design and character of
physical construction and lack adequate parking, loading and storage facilities.
■ Some properties within the Project Areas suffer from economic maladjustment,
dislocation, and disuse and are substandard in design.
■ Some prope�ties within the Project Areas exhibit characteristics of faulty interior and
exterior arrangement.
■ The Project Areas suffer from inadequate public improvements, traffic, circulation
facilities and blighting conditions.
■ The Project Areas suffer from a lack of infrastructure and community facilities.

■ The Project Areas contain properties that suffer from depreciated or stagnant property
values that impair private investment and the Agency's ability to pursue revitalization.
`-' • Some properties within the Project Areas suffer from high vacancy rates, high business
or rental turnover rates, and low rental rates.
• Within the Project Areas properties suffer from inadequate flood control and drainage
improvements.
• Within the Project Areas properties suffer from conflicting land uses, and irregular parcel
shape.
While the Agency has been extremely successful in its revitalization efforts, the conditions
identified above continue to persist within various areas of the Project Areas. These conditions
continue to inhibit economic growth, and are beyond the capacity of the private sector or public
sector to correct, acting alone without the powers of redevelopment.

The Ordinance adopting Project Area No. 1(the "Original Area") was approved by the City
Council on June 12, 1975. The Agency's Report to the City Council requesting the proposed
Redevelopment Plan for the Original Area indicated that the area had been selected because of
the existence of lots which were subject to being submerged by water; lots of inadequate size
for proper usefulness and development; inadequate streets; a problem of traffic congestion;
faulty interior arrangement of lots and buildings and exterior spacing; inadequate parking
facilities; and mixed character of development and shifting of land uses. The Original Area
encompasses approximately 420 parcels (580 acres) of retail and office/commercial
development along the City's primary commercial strip, Highway 111. The Originai Area is
generally bounded by portions of Fred Waring and Alessandro Drives to the north, EI Paseo and
adjoining commercial properties to the south, and the City limits to the east and west.
On November 25, 1981, the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 1 was amended to add
approximately 10,814 parcels tota(ing 5,240 acres, thereby creating the "Added Territory". The
Added Territory is made up of a broad range of land uses, including single and multifamily
residential, country club, planned residential, and o�ce/commercial development. The
Agency's Report to the City Council requesting the proposed amendment indicated that the
amendment was necessary to add territory because: (1) there existed commercial property and
residential units subject to being submerged, inundated, damaged or destroyed by flood waters
and accompanying debris; (2) there is a lack of adequate flood control facilities designed to
protect property, and to ensure access along roadways which cannot be remedied by private or
govemmental action without redevelopment; and (3) there existed an economic dislocation
throughout Project Area No. 1(Original and Added Territory), resulting from the clear and
present danger of flash flooding, and threats to the public health, safety and welfare throughout
the area. The boundaries of Project Area No. 1(Original and Added Territory), is illustrated on
the following page.
Since its inception, Project Area No. 1(as amended) has experienced a diversity of
development. Residential development has been predominant. Specific projects include� One
Quail Place, an apartment project with 384-units; Palm Lake Village, a 220-unit apartment
project; Hacienda De Monterey, a 180-unit congregate care, Big Horn, a 600-acre custom home
residential development and 99-bed nursing facility; and Canyon Cove, a 231-unit single-family
development. Additionally, a 73-acre Civic Center project, which provides for recreation, law
enforcement, and governmental facilities, has been completed. Project Area No. 1(Original and
Added TeRitory) contains approximately 11,235 parcels totaling over 5,820 acres.
Adoption of this Implementation Plan does not approve any of the projects detailed in this
Implementation Plan. Projects to be undertaken by the Agency are subject to discretionary
approvals by the Agency, as well as environmental clearance as determined by staff. Pursuant
to Section 33490(a)(1)(B), adoption of an implementation plan shall not constitute a"projecY'
within the meaning of the Califomia Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section
21000 et seq.), and inclusion of any project or program in the Implementation Plan shall not
eliminate environmental analysis that would othervvise be required.

The following summary matrices for Project Area No. 1 describe the proposed non-housing
programs and projects planned for the next five years (Table 1-1). Table 1-2 identifies those
projects to be undertaken with bond funding. The matrices describe each proposed program,
gives the projected time frame for implementation, identifies Agency goal's to be achieved, and
identifies the blighting conditions the program will address. Anticipated program expenditures
are based on projected tax increment revenue expected for FY 2004-05 to FY 2008-09 and
bond funding. Greater or lesser funding may be available; depending upon actual assessed
valuation changes in the Project Area No. 1.

THIRD FIVE-YEAR IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Table 1-3 presents the Implementation Plan's preliminary five-year redevelopment activity
budget for the Project Area No. 1(non-housing programs). Tax increment revenues provided
a�e net of housing set aside amounts and taxing agency pass through payments. They were
estimated based on a conservative increase in secured and unsecured assessed values with
verifiable new development values added. The budget also contains other project revenues,
including interest eamings and taxing agency reimbursements. Expenditures were based on
the 2004-05 budget and proceeds from a previous bond issuance, and include bond debt
service, required payments to Riverside County, and administrative costs.
In total, the Agency anticipates expending $71,002,452 on redevelopment or non-housing
programs that will benefit and address the needs of the P�oject Area.

Third Five-Ye�ar Implementation Plan
— Paim Desert Redevelopment Projects
PAGE 21 OF 74
PROJECT AREA NO. 2 '
The City Council approved the Ordinance adopting Project Area No. 2 on July 15, 1987. Project
Area No. 2 encompasses approximately 2,927 acres (6,195 parcels) of residential, hotel and
resort, office, and undeveloped uses. Project Area No. 2 is generally bounded by the City limits
and Interstate 10 to the north, a portion of the City limits to the east, Country Club Drive and
Hovely Lane to the south, and Portola and Monterey Avenues to the west. The boundaries of
Project Area No. 2 are i!lustrated on the following page.
The Agency's Report to the City Council requesting the proposed Redevelopment Plan
indicated that the area had been selected because of the existence of lots of inadequate size for
proper usefulness and development; inadequate traffic circulation; numerous obsolete and
dilapidated residential structures subject to mixed character and shifting of land uses; and
above ground vottage transmission lines which are not only unsightly, but because of high winds
in the area, a threat to public safety.
The primary objectives of the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 2 include the
improvement of tra�c circulation; the undergrounding of utilities; the elimination of drainage
deficiencies; the elimination of irregularly shaped and inadequate sized parcels of land; and the
rehabilitation or removal of substandard buildings. The Redevelopment Plan also provides for
the expansion of recreation facilities, open space, and other public improvements.
Adoption of this Implementation Plan does not approve any of the projects detailed herein.
Projects to be undertaken by the Agency are subject to discretionary approvals by the Agency,
as well as environmental clearance as determined by staff. Pursuant to Section 33490(a)(1)(B),
adoption of an implementation plan shall not constitute a"project" within the meaning of the
California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.}, and
inclusion of any project or program in the Implementation Pfan shall not eliminate environmental
analysis that would otherwise be required.
GOALS AND OBJECTNES OF THE AGENCY
The following goals and objectives address the blighting conditions still found within Project
Area No. 2. These goals formulate the overall strategy for this Implementation Plan and will
serve as a guide for the Agency's activities during the next five years.
■ Remove Blight. To eliminate and prevent the spread of blight and deterioration, and to
conserve, rehabilitate, and redevelop the Project Area in accordance with the
Redevelopment Plan and Annual Work Programs.
■ Encourage Stakeholder Participation. To encourage the cooperation and
participation of residents, businesspersons, public agencies, and community
organizations in the revitalization of the Project Area.

THIRD FIVE-YEAR IMPLEMENTATION Pl�4N
PALM DESERT REDEVEL�PMENT PROJECTS
Tabie 2-3 presents the Implementation Plan's preliminary redevelopment activity budget for the
Project Area No. 2(non-housing programs). Tax increment revenues provided are net of
housing set aside amounts and taxing agency pass through payments. They were estimated
based on a conservative increase in secured and unsecured assessed values with verifiable
new development values added. The budget also contains other project revenues, including
interest earnings and loan repayments. Expenditures were based on the 2004-05 budget and
proceeds from a previous bond issuance, and include bond debt service, required payments to
Riverside County, and administrative costs.
In total, the Agency anticipates expending $ 53,502,626 on redevelopment or non-housing
programs that will benefit and address the needs of the Project Area.

Third Fiv�Year Implementation Plan
Palm Desert Redevelopment Projects
PAGE 30 OF 74

PROJECT AREA NO. 3 1
The City Council approved the Ordinance adopting Project Area No. 3 on July 11, 1991. Project
Area No. 3 encompasses approximately 764 acres (668 parcels) of residential, office, and
industrial uses. Project Area No. 3 is generally bounded by Portola Avenue and Cook Street to
the west, the City boundaries and Carlotta Drive to the east, Hovely Lane and Running Springs
Drive to the north, and the Whitewater River Channel to the South. The Portola Country Club is
not a part of Project Area No. 3. The boundaries of Project Area No. 3 are illustrated on the
following page.
The Agency's Report to the City Council requesting the proposed Redevelopment Plan
indicated that the area had been selected because of the presence of buildings and structures
suffering from age and physical obsolescence, deterioration, and dilapidation. Also cited were
conditions of defective design and characteristics of physical construction; faulty interior
arrangement and exterior spacing; inadequate provision of light, ventilation, sanitation, and
open space and recreation; and inadequate public improvements and community facilities.
The primary objectives of the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 3 include the elimination
of conditions of blight; the improvement of traffic circulation; the elimination of drainage
deficiencies; the rehabilitation or removal of substandard buildings; the stimulation of private
investment; and the provision of needed public improvements and public facilities. The
Redevelopment Plan also provides for the expansion of �ecreation facilities and open space.
Adoption of this Implementation Plan does not approve any of the projects detailed in this
Impleme�tation Plan. Projects to be undertaken by the Agency are subject to discretionary
approvals by the Agency, as well as environmental clearance as determined by staff. Pursuant
to Section 33490(a)(1)(B), adoption of an implementation plan shall not constitute a"project"
within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section
21000 et seq.), and inclusion of any project or program in the Implementation Plan shall not
eliminate environmental analysis that would otherwise be required.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE AGENCY
The following goals and objectives address the blighting conditions still found within Project
Area No. 3. These goals formulate the overall strategy for this Implementation Plan and will
serve as a guide for the Agency's activities during the next five years.
• Remove Blight. To eliminate and prevent the spread of blight and deterioration, and to
conserve, rehabilitate, and redevelop the Project Area in accordance with the
Redevelopment Plan and Annual Work Programs.
■ Encourage Stakeholder Participation. To encourage the cooperation and
participation of residents, businesspersons, public agencies, and community
organizations in the revitalization of the Project Area.

REVIEIN OF THE PRIOR IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
The Agency's second implementation plan, adopted in December 1999, delineated a series of
non-housing programs for Project Area No. 3. Improvements completed during this period
included; construction of sidewalks on 42nd Street, start of construction of sewer and street
improvements and Merel Street.
�. -. . . .. . .
The following summary matrix for Project Area No. 3 describes the proposed non-housing
programs and projects planned for the next five years as well as identifies those projects to be
undertaken with bond funding (Table 3-1). The matrix describes each proposed program, gives
the projected time frame for implementation, ident�es Agency goal's to be achieved, and
identifies the blighting conditions the programs will address. Anticipated program expenditures
are based on projected tax increment revenue expected for FY 2004-05 to FY 2008-09 and
bond funding. Greater or lesser funding may be available; depending upon actual assessed
valuation changes in the Project Area No. 3.

RESOLUTION NO. 496
Third Fiv�Year Implementa�tion Plan
Palm Desert Redevelopment Projects
PAGE 36 OF 74
The City Council and the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved the Ordinances
adopting Project Area No. 4 in July of 1993. Project Area No. 4 encompasses 2,260 acres of
predominantly low-density residential land use with small areas of commercial (10 acres) and
public uses. At the time of adoption only 637 acres of this area was located within the City of
Palm Desert. The remaining portion of the Project Area was located in an adjacent area of the
unincorporated territory of the Counry of Riverside, which the Ciry of Palm Desert later annexed.
The boundaries of Project Area No. 4 are illustrated on the following page.
Project Area No. 4 generally includes the territory bounded on the west by EI Dorado Drive
running southward to the City of Indian Wells boundary line, then eastward to the boundary
point between the then County ter�itory and the City of Indian Wells. The westem boundary
follows this boundary line southward to Fred Waring Drive. Fred Waring Drive is the southem
boundary with Washington Street being the eastem limit. Country Club Drive is the northern
boundary running from Washington Street westward to EI Dorado Drive.
Project Area No. 4 was characterized in the Agency's 1993 Report to the City Council as
containing a variety of conditions, which adversely impacted the economic viability, as well as
the heafth and safety of persons and praperties located within Project Area No. 4. In some of
the unincorporated portions of Project Area No. 4 development occurred in a seemingly
unrestricted and unplanned manner. Streets were, and are still, unpaved and residential
dwellings have been developed without regard to standard design and setback requirements.
Further, Project Area No. 4 was characterized by blighting conditions such as the lack of and/or
inadequate public infrastructure improvements, including a poorly designed circulation system;
aging and deteriorating housing; and inadequate public, cultural, and recreational facilities.
The primary objectives of the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 4 include the
improvement of the traffic circulation system and freeway access; the elimination of drainage
de�ciencies; the provision of needed community facilities; the rehabilitation or removal of
substandard buildings; and the rehabilitation of the existing housing stock where needed.
Adoption of this Implementation Plan does not approve any of the projects listed herein.
Projects to be undertaken by the Agency are subject to discretionary approvals by the Agency,
as well as environmental clearance as determined by staff. Pursuant to Section 33490(a}(1)(B),
adoption of an implementation plan shall not constitute a"project" within the meaning of the
California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.), and
inclusion of any project or program in the Implementation Plan shall not eliminate environmental
analysis that would otherwise be required.

The Agency's second implementation pian, adopted in December 1999, delineated a series of
non-housing and housing projects and programs for Project No. 4, the majority of which were
initiated or fully implemented during the planning period. The Agency's achievements over the
past five years include the following:
■ Construct wall along Hovely Avenue
■ Payments to CVAG for I-10 Interchange
• Acquisition of land for regional park/design of regional park
■ Design and start of construction of storm drain improvements — Warner Trail
■ Loan to University of Califomia Riverside for graduate campus
■ Storm Drain Improvements
The following summary matrix for Project Area No. 4 identifies those projects to be undertaken
with bond funding within Project Area No. 4(Table 4-1). The matrix describes each proposed
program, gives the projected time frame for implementation, ident�es Agency goals to be
achieved, and identifies the blighting conditions the programs will address. Anticipated program
expenditures are based on projected tax increment revenue expected for FY 2004-05 to FY
2008-09 and bond funding. Greater or lesser funding may be available; depending upon actual
assessed valuation changes in the Project Area No. 4.

Providing afforciable housing has become an ever-increasing problem for communities
within the State of Califomia. The City of Palm Desert is e�eriencing a substantial
demand for housing with an ever-increasing demand for affordable very low, low and
moderate income housing. To address this need and to better utilize both physical and
financial resources, the City of Palm Desert ("City") and the Palm Desert
Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") have pr�epared an Afforcfable Housing Plan and
Strategy. This strategy is focused on meeting or exceeding the inclusionary housing
unit production requirements of Califomia Community Redevelopment Law
("Redeveiopment Law"), the Stipulation regarding affordable housing and the Regional
Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) new construction figur�es.
This document, the Affordable Housing Plan and Strategy serves as the Agency's Five
Year (2004/0�2008/09) Implementation Plan's Housing Component and Ten Year
(2004/05-2013/14) Housing Compliance Plan.
Community Redevelopment Law
The Housing Strategy serves as a blueprint for cuRent and future /�qency adivities to
meet its low and moderate income housing responsibilities. The Housing Strategy
presents a summary of the Agency's affordable housing programs. It also presents a
reconciliation of the Agency's replacement housing obligations and provides a forecast
of the number of housing units that are or will be needed to be reserved and affordable
to very low, low and moderate income persons or families over the next ten years (fiscal
years 2004/05 through 2013/14) and until the termination of the Redevelopment Plans.
The Agency's efforts to produoe affordable housing over the last 10 years (1994/95
through 2003/04) have resulted in the Agency exoeeding its 10 year afforriable housing
unit requirements.
The Agency's prior 10-year inclusionary housing unit need was established by a
detailed review of housing units built or substantially rehabilitated in the Project Areas
from adoption through June of 1994 and projections of units to be built or substantially
rehabilitated from July of 1994 through June of 2004. It was estimated that the prior 10
year unit need was for 868 affordable housing units of which 354 were required to be
spec'fiically restricted for very low-income households. During this period, the Agency
successfully created or facilitated the restriction of 1,349 units affordable to low and
moderate income households with 594 of these reserved for very low income
households. The Agency's 10 year production of affordable units has created a surplus
of 481 units which Redevelopment Law allows the Agency to carry over to the next 10
year period (2004/05 - 2013/14). Additionally, the Agency is currenthr developing
and/or supporting private projeds that I will resuft in the r�estriction of 134 new affordable
units.
Projections for the current 10 year period, 2004J05 through 2013/14 have established
an inclusionary housing unit need of 899 affordable units, of which 361 must be
restricted as affordable to very bw income households. The 899 unit figure does not

account for the Agency's carry over units and those new units currently undervvay.
Therefore, after accounting for these credits and units undenivay the Agency's
`— remaining 10 year unit need is for 284 affordable units, 95 of which must be restricted
for the very low income.
Stipulation
On May 15; 1991, the Superior Court of the State of Califomia for Riverside County
entered a Final Judgment in oertain legal actions between the Westem Center on Law
and Poverty, Inc, the Califomia Rural Legal Assistance, Jonathan Lehrer-Craiwer and
the City and Redevelopment Agency of Palm Desert (the "Parties"). The Judgment
incorporated terms of a Stipulation for Entry of Judgment in the Case (the "Stipulation'7.
The Stipulation and subsequent amendments imposes certain ongoing obligations on
the Agency with respect to afforclable housing within the City. It also provides that the
Court continue to have jurisdiction over the matters covered in the Stipulation for the
purposes of enforcement of the Stipulation.
The Stipulation requires that the Agency develop, rehabilitate or acquire or cause to be
developed, rehabilitated, or acquired, within the City, afforciable housing units in specfic
amounts during specified periods. Current accounting indicates a Stipulation
Produdion need of 1,205 affordable units by 2006. The Agency has provided 1,152
units leaving a deficiency of 53 units, which must be produced by 2006.
Housing Element RHNA Housing Units
The Housing Element of the City of Palm Desert's General Plan establishes a housing
` program that sets a�year sd�edule to achieve goals and objectives. The Housing
Element identifies suitable sites for the development of housing units, quantifies the
number of units to be created by inoome level, and estimates the amount of funds
available for housing programs to meet the RHNA figur�es. Additionally, the Housing
Element identifies additional policies and programs to meet the housing needs of Palm
Desert. Current RHNA housing unit numbers cover the period of 1998 through 2005.
The total unit need for this period is 443 units of which 229 must be provide for very
low, bw and moderate income persons or households. To date the City has provided
127 units leaving a deficiency of 102 units to be provided during the next 13 months.
Housing Programs and Projects
The Ciry and Agency are proactive in ensuring that afforcJable housing is developed
within the four Redevelopment Project Areas and citywide. Projects and programs
antiapated to address the City and Agency's housing responsibilities include:

inclusionary and replacement housing programs as mandated by Sedions 33413(a)
and (b)(4) and 33490(a)(2) and (3) of the Califomia Community Redevelopment Law,
Health and Safety Code Section 33000 et. �.. Specfically, it presents a reconciliation
of the Agency's replacement housing obligations. It provides a forecast of the number
of housing units2 that are or will be reserved and affordable to very low, low and

This Agency plans to facilitate the creation of the required number of afforclable
housing units within this timeframe.
Compliance with AB 637 and SB 701
This Housing Strategy is consistent with recent changes enacted into Redevelopment
Law pursuant to Assembly Bill 637 (Lowenthal) and Senate Bill 701 (foriakson).
Among these signficant amendments are:
➢ 55/45 Year Minimum Affordability Periods: Effedive January 1, 2002, all units
assisted by the Housing Fund including replacement housing units and production
housing must be affordable for 55 years (rental units) or 45 years (owner-occupied
units). Units assisted, rehabilitated or constructed prior to January 1, 2002 may
have shorter time limits.
Y Substantial Rehabilitation: Between January 2002 and January 2006, a
redevelopment agency is only required to include in its housing produdion
obligations those numbers of units generated by the substantial rehabilitation of
multifamily units assisted by the agency. Outside of this time frame, substantially
rehabilitated dwelling units means substantialty rehabilitated mufti-family rental
dwelling units with th�ee or more units regardless of whether ther�e is agency
assistance, or single famiy units substantially nehabilitated with agency assistance.
y Targetinq Housin4 Fund E�enditures: Effective January 2002, the
Redevelopment Law now requires that Housing Fund assistance during the
Implementation Plan period mirror the community's needs, both in terms of the
income categories needed, and the number of family (versus senior) housing
Z The Redevelopment Law defines Affordable Housing Cost as:
- Very Low - Not more than 30% of 50% of the County median household income.
- Low - Not more than 30% of 70% (or 60% for rental projects) of the County median household
incame.
- Moderate - Not more than 35% of 110% (or 30% of 120% for rental projects) of the County
median household incorne.
3 The Redevelopment Law defines and limits income categories as follows: Very Low Income -
persons or households whose gross income dces not exceed 50% of the area's median income;
Low Income - persons or households whose gross income are greater than 50% but do not
exceed 80% of the area's median income; Moderate-Income — persons or households whose
gross income are greater than 80% but do not exceed 120% of the area's median income.

requirement if an agency deposited less than $2 million over the first five years of
'— the ten year period covered by the housing portion of an implementation plan.)
SummarY af Ci�s Housil9 Ob�ations
State law requires each local city and county in the state to have an adopted
comprehensive general plan for the community's physical development. The State also
mandates that one of the required elements of the general plan is a housing element
The state law also requires that the housing element of a communiry address the
housing needs, both existing and projected, of all economic segments of the
communiry. The housing element must address land use and regulatory issues that will
provide opportunities for the development of all types of housing. It establishes the
community's goals and objectives with regarci to housing production, rehabilitation, and
conservation to meet the identified needs. The Housing Element also defines the
policies and programs that the community will implement to achieve the stated goals
and objectives. The City's Housing Element must provide the following information or
detail the adions neoessary to meet spec�c outlined goals:
%% Quantify pro}ected housing needs of the community utilizing the regional
housing need allocation model ("RHNA'�, produoed by the Southem Califomia
Association of Govemments ("SCAG")
� Make a diligent effort to achieve public participation in the preparation of the
document.
Y Assess housing needs and analyze r�esources and constraints.
Y Estimate amount of funds available for housing programs (project
redevelopment housing set-aside tax increment funds and other souroes of
housing funding)
➢ Establish a housing program that sets a 5-year schedule to achieve goals and
objectives
➢ City's Housing Program must identify adequate sites-with appropriate zoning,
development standards and public facilities that:
♦ encourage development of housing for all income levels;
♦ provide for development of all housing types (multifamily rental, mobile
home, farm worker, fadory-built, and emergency shelters;
♦ assist in development of housing to meet needs of low and moderate-
income households;
` Allocation of a redevelopment agency's tax increment housing set aside dollars must at a
minimum be allocated to very low and low income persons at least in the same propo�ion to the very
low, law and moderate income unit need identified in the community's housing element (as
established by the regions housing needs allocation}. Additional{y housing set aside funds allocated
for person 65 years of age or older must not exceed the proportion of their number to the general

rehabilitated during tt�e ten-year planning period and over the remaining period for
which each of the Project Areas Redevelopment Plans are effective.
�C ,9negation of AfFordable Housa�q Units Amor�g All Prvject Are�as
Section 33413 (b)(2)(A)(v) of the Redevelopment Law provides that nedevelopment
agencies may "aggregate new or substantially rehabilitated dwelling units in one or
more project areas if the agency finds, based upon substantial evidence, after a public
hearing, that the aggregation will not cause or exacerbate racial, ethnic, or economic
segregation."
The Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency with the adoption of its 1999 Housing
Compliance Plan has previously taken action to aggregate Rs new and substantially
rehabilitated units among all of its (four) Project Areas. The Agency will consider similar
action at the Public Hearing scheduled to consider the adoption of this Housing
Strategy. It is anticipated that based upon the evidence provided the Agency will find
that the aggregation of its afforciable housing obligations between its Project Areas, is of
benefrt to the Projed Areas and the community, and that such aggregation will not
cause or exacerbate raciai, ethnic, or economic segregation.
AfFoRlabfe Housing Provided Outside af 1he Projeat Areas
Section 33413(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Redevelopment Law provides that the Agency's
obligations under Sedion 33413 may be met by providing affordable housing outside
the project areas on a two-for one basis. During the adoption process for each of the
Project Areas, the Agency adopted appropriate resolutions tt�at allow the Agency to
expend its twenty percent (20%) housing set-aside money outside of each respedive
Projed Ar�ea. To date, the Agency has created or reserved the vast majority of its
affordable units within the Project Areas. However, the Agency will, if appropriate,
consider funding affordable housing projects or programs outside of the Project Areas
when necessary.
Housing Goals
The housing goals for the terrn of this Housing Strategy are:
➢ To increase, improve and preserve the Community's supply of low and moderate
income housing citywide.
w To comply with the replacement and inclusionary housing requirements mandated
by Redevelopment Law.

� To insure that the dollars spent for general administrative adivities are not
disproportionate to the amounts actually spent to produce, increase, and preserve
housing.
� To give priority to housing proposals that will eliminate or prevent the spread of
blight Citywide and decrease exoess demands on public services such as police,
code enforcement and building and safety within the Project Areas.
y To utilize the Palm Desert Housing Authority's ("Housing Authority'� resources and

time will enable the City and Agency to meet tf�eir combined housing obligations.
r To continue to meet the affordable unit requirements set forth in the Stipulation.
Since the adoption of the first Housing P1an in 1993 (the "1993 Housing Plan"), the
Agency through the effo►ts of the Housing Authority has activety pursued projects,
programs, and activities that meet the Agency's goals as set out above. The projects,
programs and activities have been designed to sign�cantly increase the number of
affordable very low, low and moderated income housing units within the Community
and to improve and upgrade the Community's housing stock and improve the overalt
quality of life of residents of Palm Desert.
Redev�elop�r�ent Plan Limifations
Redevelopment Law provides that certain limitations on �edevelopment and financing
activities must be imposed on the Redevelopment Plans. Additionally, changes in the
Redevelopment Law have and may continue changes in individual Project Area
limitations. These limitations affect the term that the Agency may pursue revitalization
efforts and among other things the amounts of tax increment revenue available for
housing activities. The following Table 1 summarizes the Projed Areas

AFFORDABLE HOUSING STRATEGY & COMPLIANCE
PALM DESERT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
This sedion describes the Agency's housing production needs for the next ten years,
which is camprised of two five-year planning periods (2004/05-2008/09 and 2009/10-
2013/14} and over the duration of the Redevelopment Plans.
De4'riitions and Data Cornpiabon
This Housing Strategy takes into account all residential constn�ction or substantial
rehabilitation that has occurred within the Projed Areas sinoe their adoptions in order to
determine affordable housing production needs. This Housing Strategy inGudes
figures for existing residential constn.rdion and substantial rehabilitation, and projections
for the number of additional dwelling units to be constructed or substantially
rehabilitated during the next ten (10} years and over the life of the Plans. The following
sections define "new construction" and "substantially rehabilitated" as used in this
Housing Strategy, as well as the methodalogy used for collecting data on both existing
and projected housing units.
� New Constn�ction. The Agency and City Planning staff provided the original
constn�ction statistics used in the 1993,1994 and 1999 Housing Plans.
Because Redevelopment Law does not provide a clear definition of new
construction, the Agency staff, consultant, and legal counsel have agreed upon
-- a"definition" for new construction. The definition: "new constn�dion occurs
when building permits are issued for and construction occurs resulting in the
development of a new dwelling uniY' was utilized to account for units considered
developed from the respective adoptions of the Project A�eas until the 1993
Housing Plan preparation. Therefore, all units constructed during this time
period would fall under the requirements for the production of affordable
housing units within the Project Aneas pursuant to Section 33413 of the
Redevelopment Law. Counts of new dwelling units devebped from 1994
through 2004 wene based upon an examination of City building peRnit records.
:- Future aroiections of new units. Projections of future new units have been
based on General Plan land use densities and available vacant land. The
Community Development Director and his Planning staff have reviewed the
General Plan densities of residentially zoned vacant land within the Project
Areas to determine the potential numbers of new and substantially rehabilitated
units that can be e�ected to be devebped over the remaining effectiveness of
the Redevelopment Plans. The resufts of this review determined that within the
next ten years Projed No. 1(Original and Added Territory), Project Area No. 3
and Project Area No. 4 will reach build out. Only Project Area No. 2 will still
have remaining vacant land that may generate additbnal new dwelling units.
Z Aqencv Develoued Units. It should be noted with the exception of the Palm
Village Apartments, a new construction/substantial rehabilitation affordable
housing proje�t now underway, projections for future dwelling units in the

Project Areas do not inGude units to be developed by the Agency. Accorciing to
Agency staff, the Agency does not anticipate directly developing or
rehabilitating any dwelling units which would trigger the thirty percent (30%)
affordable housing requirement of Section 33413(b) (I) within the ten (10) year
time frame of this Housing Strategy. However, the Agency will continue to
cooperate with and provide assistance and incentives to private developers,
nonprofits, and the Housing Authority in order to meet afforciable housing
production goals.
y Substantial Rehabilitation. The Redevelopment Law, as amended by AB
1290, defines "substantial rehabilitation" as:
"....rehabilifafion, the value of which constitutes 25 pement of the after
rehabilifafion va/ue of the dwelling, inclusive of the /and va/ue. "
33413(b) (2) (A) (IV)
y As defined by the Redevelopment Law "substantially rehabilitated dwelling
units" means:
"On or after January 1, 2002, substantially rehabilitated dwelling unit's
means all units substantially rehabilitated, with agency assistance.
Prior fo January 1, 2002 subsfanfially rehabilitated dwelling units shall
mean multifamily renfal units with three or more units or substantially
rehabilitated with agency assistance, single-family dwelling units with
one or two units. " 33413(b) (2) (A) (iii)
Table 2 bebw, details the Agency's "Inclusionary Housing Obligation Status" with
updated total units constructed to date in the Projed Areas, and those e�ected to be
constructed from 2004 through the teRn of expiration of each of the Redevelopment
Plans.

Inv�enbory o�f Existr�g De�c!-Restric�bed Units
The Agency is obligated under Section 33413 (b) of the Redevelopment Law to ensure
that 30% of all Agency developed or substantially rehabilitated units within the Project
Areas are made available at afforciable housing costs to very low, low and moderate
income persons or households6. Additionally this section of the Redevelopment Law
provides tt�at 15% of all units developed or substantially rehabilitated within the Project
Area must be made available at affordable housing costs to very low, low and moderate
income pe►sons or households.
To satisfy the Agency's production needs, units that ar�e erther developed or
substantially rehabilitatec! must be subject to covenants. Units created after 2001 must
carry 45-year affordability covenants for single family units and 55-year affordability
covenants on multifamily units.' Units may be constructed inside or outside the Project
Areas, but units provided outside a project area count on a 2-for-1 basis. The Agency
may also purchase 55-year affordabiliry covenants on multifamily units.
Table 3 below presents an inventory of the existing deed-restricted units that meet
these ne�quirements. In total, the Agency's affordable housing program has yielded
1,458 afforciable units, of which the Agency's inclusionary unit need can be credited
with 1,349 restricted units.e The 1,349 afforciable restricted units are allocated as
foNows; 594 are restricted for very low income persons or households, 538 are
restricted for low income and 217 for moderate income. (fhese figures exclude
manage�'s units that ane included as a part of muftrfamily housing projects, as well as
units projected to be produoed as the Agency continues implementing its affordable
housing program.)
6 Section 50052.5 af Health and Safety Code defines affordable housing cost as:
- Very Low - Not more than 30% of 50% of the County median household income.
- Low - Not more than 30% of 70% (or 60% for rental projects) of the County median household
income.
- Moderate - Not more than 35% of 110% (or 30% of 120% for renta! projects) of the County
median household income.
' 45 years for ownership units or 55 years for rental units. Prior to January 1, 2002, affordability
covenants could be as little as the duration of the redevelopment plan to count for mee6ng a
redevelopment agency's affordable housing production requirements.
e Pursuant to Section 33413 (b) (ii) aF the Redevelopment Law, the Agency may provide two
indusionary units outside the Project Areas for each required restrided affordable unit.

affordable housing production requirements should be met during this planning period,
which ends on June 30, 2014.
Based upon the forecast of housing construction presented ea�lier and the Agency's
inventory of affordable housing projects completed to date, Table 4 presents the
computation of the Agency's affordable housing production requirement for the

Past Inclusionary, Cu�rent Five 8 Ten Year InGusionary Unk Need
The Agency has actively worked to produce the nequired number of inclusionary units
over the last ten years, producing over 9,458 affordable units (with an inclusionary
credit of 1,349 units).9 As detailed in Table 4, the Agency has more than met their
inGusionary housing needs for the prior 10 year period (1994/95 through 2003/04).
The Agency has produced a surplus of 481 affordable units that they will apply to this
planning period's pr•ojeded afforcJable unit need. Additionally, the Agency has entered
into agreements or undertaken construction of 134 units of afforciable housing that will

continue its efforts to facilitate the constn�ction or restriction of the remaining 284 units
`" that will be required to meet the ten year planning period's affordable housing unit
obligation.
The Redevelopment Law requires that whenever housing occupied by low and
moderate income persons or households ane destroyed as part of an Agency projed,
the Agency is responsible for ensuring that an equivalent number of replaoement units
are constructed or substantialfy rehabilitated. These units must provide at least the
same number of bedrooms destroyed, and 100% of the replacement units10 must be
affordable to the same income categories (i.e. very low, low, and moderate) as those
removed. The Agency receives a full credit for replaoement units created inside or
outside the Project Areas.
Sinoe the adoption of the last Implementation Plan, the Agency has provided funding
for a necessary infrastsueture psoject that resulted in tt�e destruetion of housing
occupied by bw and moderate income persons or households

Housing Set Aside Tau Increment Funds
The Agency's primary source of funding for housing projects and programs is the
annual deposit of 20% of its tax increment revenue into a special housing set-aside
fund ("Housing Fund"). The Redevelopment Law requires that these funds be used to
increase, improve, and preserve the community's suppy of housing available, at
affordable housing cost, to persons and families of very low, low, and maierate
incomes. Other sources of Housing Fund revenues include interest eamings, bond
proceeds, land sale proceeds, loan repayments, and developer loan proceeds.
Table 6 below, presents staffs forecast of Housing Fund revenues and expenditures for
the first five years of this planning period. The forecast acoounts for operational and

Because this Housing Strategy focuses on providing housing for very low, low
and moderate income households who are generally the most difficult segment of
the community for whom to provide housing, it is clearly consistent with the
Housing ElemenYs goal to provide housing for all economic groups within the
Projed Area. Both this Strategy and the Housing Element state there is a definite
need to assure an adequate supply of housing for the lower income segments of
the community.
A major focal point of the goals, policies, and objectives of the Hvusing Element is
to provide housing for all economic segments of the Project Areas, especially
lower income families. Because the major goal of this Strategy is also to provide
housing for these lower income households, and the proposed plans and
programs for improving the supply of affordable housing in the Project Area
presented in this Strategy are similar to plans and policies of the Housing
Element, there is clearly consistency between this Compliance Plan and the
Housing Element.
