Palm Springs, California Revised Mar-ch.1997 ORDINANCE NO. 838 EXHIBIT "A" DEVELOPMENT PLAN - WONDER PALMS COMMERCIAL CENTER PURPOSE OF DEVELOPMENT PLAN The purpose of adopting a Development Plan for the subject project is as follows: To provide the City and the Developer(s) of the Project Area with a process and standards consistent with the City's General Plan and act to implement the City's goals and objectives. To provide precise and supplemental criteria for the uses, design, circulation, and development of the overall property which has been broken down into a series of Planning Areas which may take on individual characteristics resulting in an aesthetically consistent, environmentally harmonious, and economically viable addition to the community. ► To provide for flexibility in land use options which may be altered in order to respond to future changes in the vicinity including but not limited to the development of a major university on adjacent property, and the changing character of traffic patterns due to improved access to Interstate 10 and to land north of Palm Desert. ► To insure that development occurs in an orderly fashion through long-range planning. ► To facilitate processing applications for industrial, commercial and residential development that is consistent with the guidelines set forth in this development plan establishing an overall land use plan, a statement of intent, processing requirements and threshold environmental analysis and mitigation measures. ► To provide for the development of the overall project area in a manner which is consistent with the terms and provisions of this Development Agreement, the Development Plan and the City's Land Use Ordinances. PROJECT INTRODUCTION Overview The Wonder Palms Commercial Center (Project) affords the opportunity to establish a high quality entry overall statement for an important portal to the City at the same time creating a major economic development which can be planned to complement existing commercial, industrial, and residential development elsewhere in the City and the surrounding area. Master planning this area will ensure the flexibility which will be necessary as the ORDINANCE NO. 838 surrounding area develops. The site is poised to provide one of the City's major points of access from Interstate 10, and the City and the Developer recognize the opportunity that the site has to introduce people to the City of Palm Desert as well as respond to a major economic potential for regional destination and traveler oriented commerce. The development of the Project in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Agreement including the development guidelines provides a number of benefits to both the City and the Owner: 1. It maximizes the potential for high quality commercial, industrial, and residential development with high visibility from Interstate 10. 2. It maximizes the flexibility necessary to adapt the property to future conditions which are anticipated to affect the area; particularly the future university campus and the increased accessibility to the area north of Interstate 10. 3. It provides a comprehensive planning framework which establishes guidelines for future land use applications for the property and eliminates the inconsistency associated with individual and unassociated development proposals. 4. It facilitates the construction of stomnwater system improvements consistent with the master plans adopted by the City in conjunction with the Coachella Valley Water District. 5. It controls sensitive land uses associated with sites having excellent freeway access. 6. It provides for the completion of the street network adjacent to the site including Cook Street, Gerald Ford Drive and Portola Avenue. 7. It provides for the planning and execution of a major entry statement potentially involving the Art in Public Places program. Planning Areas/Statistical Summary The 270 acre site has been divided into eight Planning Areas which are anticipated to take on unique development characteristics. This is delineated in Figure 1.

The following guidelines are intended to be supplemental to those established -by the City in its Ordinances and to the extent that they are inconsistent or in conflict with the guidelines and Ordinances established by the City, these guidelines shall be deemed controlling. Subject to the foregoing, all development plans for each Planning Area shall comply with the following guidelines. Site Planning and Circulation Access to the various Planning Areas shall be limited as depicted in Figure 5 unless otherwise approved by the Planning Commission. The intent is to limit access to maximize the efficiency of the public street network in and around the Project Area. Shared access, shared parking, shared internal vehicular circulation, and an interconnected non -motorized internal circulation system shall be considered with the site plan for each Planning Area. Where shared circulation, parking, and access are planned, reciprocal easements shall be provided at the time the final map is approved for the planning area or at the time of building permits. Architecture The architectural style of the Project will be predominantly of a custom, contemporary desert influence. This can include a variety of derivative "traditional' styles such as Mexican, Southwest, Mission Spanish, as well as more distinctly modem desert expressions as found in Palm Desert and elsewhere throughout the Southwest. The collective characteristics found in this architecture will be solar control (eaves, shade structures, recessed windows and doors, reflective surfaces), mass (thick walls, columns), enriched materials (stone, masonry, glass block), complex building forms (courtyards, "stepping" - both vertical and horizontal, clustering) and details (art, water elements, lighting, signage). Articulated eave detailing is encouraged on all structures. The design objective is to reward the observer with a unique, environmentally responsive "village" of buildings which work to provide an enriching experience to both those working within as well as the users of the complex. Screening of mechanical equipment, loading docks, trash areas and the like from all vantage points shall be designed as an extension of the architectural and landscape solutions. Discouraged architectural elements include franchise design, stagefront (one sided) solutions, massive, uninterrupted planes of stucco or similar materials, and unrelated, 12 ORDINANCE NO. 838 floating, Post -Modern elements applied to building elevations. Height Limits The maximum height of buildings shall be governed by the provisions of the equivalent zoning classification. Landscape The landscape solutions will be water efficient, colorful and emphasize shade. Large expanses of turf will be discouraged except where multiple usage can be achieved. Water elements shall be judiciously used to accentuate entries or transition areas. Such elements shall tend toward"oasis" rather than "lake." Streetscapes shall be developed for each of the public streets and should include landscape materials suited for such applications. Colorful desert shrubs and shade trees shall be encouraged. Irrigation systems shall be selected that limit water wasting. Landscape grading shall be designed to contain irrigation within planting areas. Stormwater retention/detention areas (100 year events) shall be integrated into the overall site plan. Landscape Maintenance Landscape maintenance shall be undertaken on a uniform basis within each planning area. A landscape maintenance handbook shall be approved as part of the detailed landscape development plans for each planning area. Landscape elements which are common to more than one planning area shall have consistent maintenance provisions. Parking Areas Parking areas shall be efficiently designed to minimize area devoted to asphalt. As much as possible, large parking area shall be separated into smaller appearing facilities by means such as landscape buffers, grade breaks, and pedestrian corridors in order to visually limit the parking "hardscape." Trees used in parking areas shall be selected to maximize the development of shade while maintaining visual access to the architectural graphics of the complex. The pattern and selection of trees shall also integrate with the pattern of lighting fixtures to insure efficient illumination while limiting light pollution to the degree possible. Parking layouts shall be pedestrian friendly to facilitate pedestrian and non -motorized transportation movements. Stormwater retention/detention areas may include perimeter parking and maneuvering areas. The business developments catering to freeway travelers shall accommodate parking for vehicles pulling trailers, boats, vehicles and the like. 13 ORDINANCE NO. 838 Grading/Drainage The Project lies adjacent to the long -planned Mid -Valley Channel. Each site will be required to retain the water of a 100 year event on site unless a community facility is constructed. Areas used for retention/detention shall be integrated into the overall site design but may be designed and shared by multiple sites. Retention/detention areas may include perimeter parking and maneuvering areas. Right-of-way easements for the Mid -Valley Channel shall be dedicated with the first development permit and the land value of the dedication shall be credited against any area -wide drainage fees. Construction shall be implemented by the Coachella Valley Water District, the City, and/or the Redevelopment Agency. Interim flood protection may be proposed to protect properties pending implementation of permanent facilities. Mass grading of all or a portion of the Project may be necessary and may occur upon approval of the grading plan and a dust control plan. Graphics Architectural graphics shall be considered as an integral part of the initial complex layout and individual building design. Due to the relationship with Interstate 10, Planning Areas 1, 2, 4. and 6 may orient building signage toward the freeway. Individual business signage shall not extend above the building outline. A single pylon sign up to 60 feet in height and 150 square feet in area per side (Figure 6) may be erected in Planning Areas 1 and 2 which may contain up to six business graphics. The design and location of this pylon shall be integrated with the Precise Plan for each planning area and shall be consistent with the FCOZ ordinance. All other freeway oriented graphics shall be consistent with the Palm Desert Sign Ordinance. In addition, the Developer and the City shall work with Caltrans to implement Business Identification Signage on Interstate 10. Plan Review Requirements Purpose This section is intended to establish the framework for processing future applications. Development/Precise Plan Review When the actual development of a Planning Area is proposed, an application for approval of a Precise Plan shall be filed with and shall be approved by the Planning Commission and ARB if said Precise Plan is consistent with the provisions of the Agreement and this Exhibit "A". A Precise Plan may cover one or more Planning Areas of the Project. If a 14 ORDINANCE NO. 838 Precise Plan is proposed for an area less than a complete Planning Area, a schematic land use plan for the entire Planning Area shall be submitted for that Planning Area. That schematic land use Plan shall show that the partial development of the Planning Area will not inhibit the overall development of the Planning Area. Subdivision maps, if required, can be submitted and processed concurrently with the Precise Plan application. Precise Plan Contents Subject to the provisions of the Agreement and this Exhibit "A" the Precise Plan shall include the requirements of Section 25.73.011 of the Zoning Ordinance. 15 ORDINANCE NO. 838 Figure 6 ONCEPT FREEWAY SIGNAGE UP TO SIX - COOK STREET --0 PA1 UP TO 2E 32' WONDER PALMS COMMERCIAL CENTER -.
