December 8, 2005
Recommendation:
That the City Council defer the redlining of curbing on the east and west sides of
Deep Canyon Road until construction of the new Sacred Heart Church parking lots
are completed in 2006.
I. BACKGROUND
A. July 15, 2005 CUP 04-13 Approval:
After considering testimony at several public hearings, on July 14, 2005 the
City Council approved CUP 04-13 to allow the expansion of the Sacred
Heart Elementary School and construction of new parking lots north of the
existing church. The approval included a condition calling for additional
redlining on both sides of Deep Canyon Road. Public Works condition of
approval no. 26 reads:
Public Works Department staff shall report back to the City Council
with a recommendation on whether the west side of Deep Canyon
Road can and should be redlined north of the master plan site in order
to reduce noise impacts from on -street parking on homes abutting the
west side of Deep Canyon Road.
B. October 13, 2005 City Engineer's Report
The October 13, 2005 report of the City Engineer (copy attached)
recommended that the City Council defer redlining additional additional
segments of Deep Canyon Road until after construction of the new parking
lots is completed. The requirement to eliminate the street parking is based
on the availability of adequate parking spaces in the new parking lots. If
additional segments of Deep Canyon Road are redlined now, then
worshipers attending weekend services who cannot find on -site- parking will
be forced to park deeper into nearby residential neighborhoods on public
streets such as Moss Rose Drive, Day Lily Circle, Coral Bells Circle,
Lavendar Way, Buttonwood Drive, Silk Tree Lane, Gazania Place, Myrsine
Avenue, Florine Avenue, Aster Drive, Velardo Drive and Erin Street.
Until the new Sacred Heart Church parking lots are completed in 2006, we
recommend that the Council defer redlining of additional segments of Deep
Canyon Road to prevent the loss of critical off -site parking spaces for
Sacred Heart Church worshippers

C. October 13, 2005 City Council Decision Ordering Additional Redlining
of Curbing on Both Sides of Deep Canyon Road
After considering public testimony, the City Council ordered staff to redline
additional segments on both sides of Deep Canyon Road. Father Howard
Lincoln, who in addition to being pastor of Sacred Heart Church is also the
public relations spokesman for the entire Diocese of San Bernardino, was
unexpectedly delayed in attending the October 13, 2005 Council meeting.
Thus, he was unable to offer public testimony prior to the City Council's
decision.
D. November 4, 2005 Letter by Father Howard A. Lincoln
Father Howard A. Lincoln submitted a letter dated November 4, 2005 (copy
attached) to the City Manager requesting that the City Council reconsider its
October 13, 2005 decision, which ordered the immediate redlining of
additional segments of Deep Canyon Road.
E. November 17, 2005 Special City Council Meeting to Reconsider
At the November 17, 2005 the City Council meeting, the Council directed
Father Lincoln to meet with nearby residents Thomas W. McCutchen and
Norman Eastwood to try and resolve their concerns regarding on -street
parking on Deep Canyon Road. By Minute Motion, the Council directed 4-
1, with Councilman Spiegel voting no, that consideration of an amended
time line for the previously approved red -curbing along Deep Canyon Road
be taken up at the regular City Council meeting of December 8, 2005. On
November 23, 2005, staff mailed public hearing notices to all property
owners within a 300-foot radius of the Sacred Heart Church Master Plan
site.
At the time this staff report was written, Sacred Heart Church's attorney, Mr.
Michael B. Rover, was trying to schedule a meeting with Mr. Thomas W.
McCutchen and Mr. Norman Eastwood. Copies of Mr. Rover's November
29, 2005 letters to Mr. McCutchen and Mr. Eastwood are attached. Mr.
Rover also contacted Mr. McCutchen and Mr. Eastwood by telephone.

Conclusion:
Until the new Sacred Heart Church parking lots are completed in 2006, we recommend
that the Council defer redlining of additional segments of Deep Canyon Road to prevent
the loss of critical off -site parking spaces for Sacred Heart Church worshippers,
especially during the peak season. During construction of the new church parking lots,
the number of on -site parking spaces will be substantially reduced.

REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WITH

> C. CONSIDERATION OF THE INSTALLATION OF ADDITIONAL PARKING
RESTRICTIONS ON DEEP CANYON ROAD, NORTH OF
FRED WARING DRIVE (Continued from the meeting of September 22,
2005).
Mr. Greenwood stated that staff was asked to look at parking restrictions on
Deep Canyon Road associated with the expansion of Sacred Heart Church
and School. He said staff had performed the review and conducted a sight
line safety analysis —where cars can safely park on the curb and not block
visibility of cars exiting the driveways. He went on to say that earlier today
staff met with Sacred Heart representatives, and they were asking for a
continuance of this item in order to work out additional details. He pointed
15
MINUTES
REGULAR PALM DESERT CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 13, 2005
out that the staff recommendation was to only implement the red -curbing
after the expansion of the church and school has occurred.
Councilmember Benson thought when this was first discussed, the east side
was going to be red -curbed, and the west side would not because of the
entrance to the church; and people who have difficulty walking might want to
come from that side. She didn't see how the west side blocked anyone's
view.
Mr. Greenwood responded that there was a sight line analysis in the staff
report that shows how those cars blocked the sight line.
Councilmember Benson disagreed; Deep Canyon was a collector street, and
she didn't think it was necessary to paint the whole thing red.
Mr. Greenwood added that residents directly north of the church and school
requested red -curbing on the west side.
Mayor Pro Tern Ferguson observed that the item had now been on the
agenda twice, and the church has asked for a continuance each time. He
asked whether or not the church was opposed to the City putting this off until
after the master plan is done.
Mr. Greenwood replied he didn't think they were opposed to putting it off until
afterward; they were somewhat opposed to red -lining it at all. He affirmed
that it was staffs intent to red -curb after construction was complete, not
before it was started. He offered that additional analysis could also be
performed when construction was complete.
MR. MIKE ROVER, Attorney for Sacred Heart and President of its School
Board, said Sacred Heart's position was that it was opposed to red -lining on
the west side of Deep Canyon. Additionally, he said they received the
"Driver's Line of Sight„ study during a meeting with Mr. Greenwood this
afternoon and discussed the possibility of taking a little more time to look at
the basis for the results of the study with their traffic engineer. He stated they
were not opposed to postponing it, understanding that staffs
recommendation initially was to implement the red -curbing at the time
construction was completed so that the new parking spots on site would
accommodate some of those issues on Deep Canyon.
Mr. Greenwood responded that staff felt the 200+ additional parking spaces
should more than accommodate the cars that now park on Deep Canyon.
In further response, he said he firmly believed that red -curbing is needed the
entire frontage of the Sacred Heart School but that it could wait until the
construction is done to do it. Although, he agreed that it could be looked at
16
MINUTES
REGULAR PALM DESERT CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 13, 2005
again and brought back to the City Council once the construction was
complete.
Councilman Spiegel asked Mr. Rover about the empty buildings issue that
was raised earlier in this meeting.
MR. ROVER answered that the Fire Department had done some training
exercises there, and he believed the fence around La Paz Villas had gone up
this week. He said they planned to start demolition of the buildings next
week, as soon as they were permitted to do so. He went on to ask for further
clarification of today's agenda item, as he understood that it called for
approval of red -lining at a future date. He said if that was the case, they
would be opposed to it. However, if the proposal was to just simply review
it at a later date, they would not be.
MR. NORM EASTWOOD, 74-474 Myrsine Avenue, Palm Desert, stated he
thought this issue came out of the recommendation to approve the project at
Sacred Heart, and it was left to be answered. He noted that 140 local
residents submitted a petition asking for red -lining on Deep Canyon, and the
City's engineering staff agrees that it is the right thing to do. He pointed out
that Father Lincoln had said his problem was having people park in the
parking lot instead of on the street; red -lining will solve that problem for him.
He went on to say that one of the requisites for the project was to have on -
site parking for all vehicles that could go to the site, and there are 686
parking places, which more than accommodates any of the vehicle capacity
of the people for the church. Further, he thought the matter was continued
so that Father Lincoln could be present and a decision would be made;
however, if a decision wasn't made soon, another year or two could go by
before anyone came back to look at the problem. He noted that during the
July 14 Meeting, Councilman Kelly expressed concern with on -street parking
for the residents who are north of the property and felt that red -lining there
would help them. He agreed and added that the Golf Cart Lane that runs
here should also be taken into account. He also believed there was
adequate handicapped parking on site, leaving no reason to park on Deep
Canyon. He closed by stating that he'd counted six accidents in this area
and urged the City Council to resolve this serious issue.
MR. TOM McCUTCHEN, 24 Via Cielo Azul, Palm Desert, commented that
there were currently approximately 430 paved parking spots on the church
campus now. With the additional 262 paved spaces that have been
approved in the recent master plan expansion, it would make a total of 686,
and he added that they'd been told the sports field will provide overflow
parking of another 200 spaces. He said the church's capacity is 1,400, and
if it and the lot were full, it would mean each car brought less than two
people. Therefore, he felt there was more than adequate parking when the
expansion is completed. He said the local residents were certainly
17
MINUTES
REGULAR PALM DESERT CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 13, 2005
reasonable; but they would love to have it red -lined today to help alleviate
some of the problems now that the season was starting again. Although, he
noted that all summer long cars were parked on both sides of the street,
especially the west side —all the way down to Buttonwood —and the parking lot
was half empty. He felt one of the reasons parishioners parked along Deep
Canyon and Florine is that the church still hasn't addressed the
ingress/egress problem, which residents had asked to be considered as part
of the master plan, but it's never been ultimately decided. He believed
having designated one-way driveways for in and out would help, since there
are only 30 minutes between each of the total of eight masses on Saturday
night and on Sunday, and there are 300-600 cars coming and going at the
same time. He felt the City Council's request that the church hire an off -duty
police officer during the season (November - May) will help. He said the
other reason residents want red -lining on both sides of Deep Canyon is that
once the parish hall is built, it will be used until 10:00 p.m. Sunday through
Friday nights and until 11:00 p.m. on Saturdays. All the homes along Deep
Canyon have their bedrooms typically on the streetside, and they were
concerned about the disturbance with cars starting, car doors slamming, and
people saying their goodbyes. Therefore, he said they strongly support
Mr. Greenwood's recommendation for red -lining both sides of Deep Canyon
from Fred Waring all the way to the curb at Magnesia Falls and encouraged
the decision be made tonight.
MR. ROVER reiterated that he understood that the red -curbing would be
done at some point when the project is either nearing or at completion,
approximately 12 months from now. He said approving it tonight would not
expedite the red -lining of Deep Canyon on either side. Additionally, he
wanted to point out that the church was not expanding; only the school was
being expanded. He cautioned that if tonight's decision is for red -lining all
along Deep Canyon at some point in the future, it will force parking onto
Moss Rose and Florine, etc. Since he'd only obtained the line of sight study
earlier this afternoon, he again asked for additional time for their traffic
engineer to review it, as his Supplemental Traffic Report No. 2 was in direct
contradiction. He apologized for Father Lincoln's attendance, as he thought
he was planning to be present by this time.
Councilman Kelly said given the hours of testimony that had been received
in this matter, he advocated immediate red -lining for the east side of Deep
Canyon as well as the west side north of the church property, leaving the
curb in front of the church property for parking.
Councilman Kelly moved to, by Minute Motion, approve immediate red -curbing on
the east side of Deep Canyon Road and for portions north of the Sacred Heart property
line. Motion was seconded by Benson and carried by 4-0 vote, with Crites ABSENT.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
STAFF REPORT
REQUEST: Consider Installation of Additional On -Street Parking Restrictions on
Deep Canyon Road, North of Fred Waring Drive
SUBMITTED BY: Mark Greenwood, P.E., City Engineer
DATE: October 13, 2005
CONTENTS: Line Of Site Exhibit
Vicinity Map
Recommendation:
By minute motion, concur with staffs recommendation to install
additional on -street parking restrictions on Deep Canyon Road after
implementation of the Sacred Heart Church Master Plan.
Discussion:
At the July 14, 2005 meeting City Council directed staff to review parking conditions on Deep
Canyon Road and to consider the need for any additional on -street parking restrictions. Staff
has conducted the review and recommends the restriction of on -street (curbside) parking
along the entire frontage on both sides of Deep Canyon Road north of Fred Waring Drive
after the proposed on -site parking facilities are constructed by Sacred Heart Church Master
Plan.
As documented in the Sacred Heart Church and School Master Plan traffic study and
subsequent addenda, the existing paved parking spaces available on -site at Sacred Heart
Church are unable to meet the parking demand during periods of high attendance. Curb
parking along Deep Canyon Road currently provides additional spaces for the overflow
parking demand. Implementation of the Master Plan will increase the parking supply and will
accommodate the vehicles that currently park along Deep Canyon Road.
The removal of on -street parking along Deep Canyon Road prior to implementation of the
Sacred Heart Church Master Plan is not recommended. Eliminating the on -street parking on
Deep Canyon Road, without providing on -site parking at the church in exchange, may spread
the parking demand to surrounding local streets including: Moss Rose Drive, Daylily Circle,
Coral Bells Circle, Lavender Way, Buttonwood Drive and the neighborhood streets west of
Florine Avenue.

SUBJECT: Impacts Associated with Installation of Red Curb on Deep Canyon
Road now Sacred Heart Church and School In the City of Palm Desert
Dear Father Lincoln:
Torn Brohard and Associates previously prepared the May 27, 2005 Supplemental
Traffic Engineering Report, Addendum 1 dated June 2, 2006, and Addendum 2 dated
July 6, 2005 regarding the Sacred Heart Church and School Master Plan Project in the
City or Palm Desert. On October 13, 2005, the Palm Desert City Council directed staff to
install red curb markings "now' on both sides of Deep Canyon Road north of Fred
Waring Drive except in front of Sacred Heart Church and School. Subsequently, the City
Council reconsidered this matter and set a public hearing for December 8, 2005,
The Master Plan includes an increase of 241 paved perking spaces on site as well as
200 additional spaces on the play fields for high attendance events. Removal of 85
parking spaces from both sides of Deep Canyon Road before the additional parking is
provided on site will create additional on street parking on other residential streets in the
area. The resulting Impacts to other residential properties will be significantly worse then
those associated with allowing parking to continue on Deep Canyon Road..
ej ,, c. _ • if
The City Council should not install red curt on Deep Canyon Road until additional
parking is provided on site with the Master Plan for these reasons:
4' Vrset ParidO SeDaraWOrmn Resldenqn by Block Wftand UmdscgAft —

site by employing attendants to facilitate access in to and out of its parking areas
during the winter season, but it cannot preclude off site parking on area streets.
to Parkin on Nearbv Residential $meets Will Increase — Those now parking on
Deep Canyon Road will likely park on other residential streets In the vicinity of
Sacred Heart Church if they perceive easier access and less overall travel time. The
majority of these vehicles are likely to relocate to adjacent residential streets.
Church Communicates with ParithWers Reaardina Parkin -- The Church
regularly communicates with its parishioners to minimize currant parking impacts as
indicated in "Parking Announcements" from the enclosed copy of the November 20,
2005 Church Bulletin.
The following provides additional discussion regarding each of the points above:
greet Parkin tad from Rssldsnces by Block VUll_s_" Landscacinq —
Cne of the conditions of approval for the Sacred Heart Church and School Master Plan
requested an evaluation from City staff of the potential need to prohibit on street parking
on the west side of Deep Canyon Road north of the Church. It is believed the main
intent of this condition was to evaluate potential noise impacts on the adjacent
residential property from on street parking might occur with evening use of the multi
functional building. City staff; did not address this issue, but instead conducted a sight
distance analysis at the Sacred Heart Church and School driveways.
North of the duplexes owned by Sacred Heart Church, a continuous 6 to 10 foot high
block wall is in place along the entire west side of Deep Canyon Road together with a 5
to 9 foot sidewalk separating the residential properties from the roadway. There is also
a continuous 6 to 8 foot high block well along the entire east side of Deep Canyon Road
together with a 12 foot wide landscaped area and 8 foot sidewalk separating the
residential properties from the roadway.
My May 27, 2005 Supplemental Traffic Engineering Report provided trip generation
forecasts for the multi-%nc:tkwW building. With up to 800 people attending a fund raising
or other new event in the multi functional building, a maximum of SW total trips could
occur in the evening after the PM peak bvft hours on the adjacent streets. It is likely
that the vast majority of the 530 vehicles associated with these trips will park on site
within the 686 paved parking spaces that will be provided by the Master Plan. Should on
street parking occur on Deep Canyon Road, then the continuous 6 to 10 foot Nigh block
wails and landscaping that are in place along both sides of Deep Canyon Road
separating the residential properties from the roadway will reduce noise associated with
closing of car doors.

Impacts Associated with Red Curb on Deep Canyon Road
November 29, 2005
Zed Curb Eliminates 86 des on QM Canvon Road - Installation of red curb will
eliminate 85 on street parking spaces including 49.on the east side and 36 on the west
side north of Sacred Heart Church as follows:
ftst Jildt — Red curb is presently in place, prohibiting stopping at all times, on the east
side of Deep. Canyon Road from Fred Waring Drive northerly to 100 feet north of Via
Palmira. North of that point, on street parking is penmitted at all times. The separate
parking lane adjacent to the east curb and outside the pointed bicycle/golf cart lane
safely accommodates on street parking. From field measurements, the following on
street parking is available on the east aide of Deep Canyon Road:
LQMON DISTANCE
PA Cf
I WO Via Palmira to W S/O Moss Rose . 580 feet
23 spaces
50' WO Moss Rose Drive to Daylily Circle 120 feet

Total Parking Available
49 spaces
* Note: The numbers of parking spaces were determined using 25' per space.
On street parking on the east side of Deep Canyon Road has been observed to include
nearly the entire east side of Deep Canyon Road during worship services on holidays.
As examples, 48 vehicles at 8:30 AM and 44 vehicles at 9:45 AM were parked on the
east side of Deep Canyon Road on Palm Sunday, March 20, 2005.
Prohibiting perking on the east side of Deep Canyon Road will eliminate 49 parking
spaces and will likely create additional undesirable parking impacts. Prohibiting parking
on the east side of Deep Canyon Road increases the likelihood of vehicle parking
relocating to streets such as Moss Rose Drive, a street that currently experiences little
on street parking during worship services.
West — Red curb is presently in place, prohibiting stopping at all times, on the west
side of Deep Canyon Road from Fred Waring Drive northerly to a point opposite the
centerline of Via Palmira. North of that point, on street parking is permitted at all times.
The separate parking lane adjacent to the west curb outside the painted bicycle/golf cart
lane safely acoommodates on street parking in this area. From field measurements, the
following on street parking is available on.the west side of Deep Canyon Road:

impacts Associated with Red Curb on Deep Canyon Road
November 29, 2005
On street parking on the west side of Deep Canyon Road has been observed to include
nearly the entire west side of Deep Canyon Road during worship services on holidays.
As examples, 25 vehicles at 8:30 AM and 26 vehicles at 9:45 AM were parked on the
west side of Deep Canyon Road north of Sacred Heart Chum on Palm Sunday, March
20, 2005. When parking associated with Sacred Heart Chum occurs on the west side
of Deep Canyon Road, vehicle occupants become pedestrians that use the continuous
sidewalk along the west side of Deep Canyon Road .to Sacred Heart Church and back
to their parked vehicles.
Prohibiting parking north of the Church property on the west side of Deep Canyon Road
will eliminate 36 on street parking spaces. These parking prohibitions will result in
additional parking on residential streets beyond Florins Avenue such as Aster Drive,
Velardo Drive, and Erin Street, creating additional parking impacts.
MMgJ2Plan Provides Additional MI PaMno 8oaces On Site — Completion of the
Sacred Heart Church and School Master Plan will provide an additional 441 parking
spaces on site inducing 241 paved spaces and 200 additional spaces on the play fields
for high attendance events. Construction phasing and staging preclude providing
additional parking on site.
Parking On Site Is Fscllitabd by Attendants - The Church encourages parking on
site by employing attendants to facilitate access in to and out of its parking areas during
the winter season, but it cannot preclude off site parking on area streets.
Some people attending Sacred Heart Church will likely continue to park off site as long
as it is faster for them to locate an on street parking space and then walk to and from
the Sanctuary. During March and April 2005, the Church used parking attendants to
facilitate access to and from the parking areas on site, together with passenger shuttle
on site service to eliminate the need for walking. Sacred Heart Church will continue
these practices during higher attendance periods between November 1 and April 30.
For the current season, professional parking attendants resumed providing cilrectional
parking assistance at the Church on November 5, 2005. Facilitaating entry and exit at the
Chum driveways is an excellent step toward encouraging worshippers to park on site
rather than on the *sets in the area.
Pared on Nearby Reaiderrtiai S„ b3 is I f ll Increase — Those parking on Deep
Canyon Road will likely park on other residential streets in the vicinity of Sacred Heart
Church if they perceive easier access and less overall travel time. Installation of red
curb on both sides of Deep Canyon Road will eliminate 85 parking spaces, and the
majority of these vehicles are likely to relocate to adjacent residential streets.
Church Commpnicates wPJLr_prlshioners Rena Parking - The Church regularly
communicates with its parishioners to minimize current parking impacts. As shown in
"Parking Announcements' enclosed from the November 20, 2005 Church Bulletin,
parishioners were again reminded of the following Items:

Father Howard Lincoln
Impacts Associated with Red Curb on Deep Canyon Road
November 29, 2006
• Parking attendants facilitate traffic flow into and out of the Church parking lots.
• Overflow parking is available on the Sacred Heart School grass playground area.
• Parking in red curbed areas on Deep Canyon Road is a parkng violation.
• Parking on the east side of Deep Canyon Road creates pedestrian safety issues.
In conclusion, the Master Plan includes an increase of 241 paved parking spaces on
site as well as 200 additional spaces on the play fields for high attendance events.
Removal of 85 parking spaces from both sides of Deep Canyon Road before the
additional parking is provided on site by the Master Plan will create additional on street
parking on other residential streets in the area The resulting impacts to other residential
properties will be significantly worse then those associated with allowing parking to
continue on Deep Canyon Road. IbL_Q v Council should delay ft In"ladon
