CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.2022-09
WHEREAS, the City Council has not received any comments or additional
information that constituted substantial new information requiring recirculation or additional
environmental review under Public Resources Code Sections 21166 and 21092.1 and State
CEQA Guidelines section 15088.5; and
WHEREAS, at the said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony
and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, the City Council did
find the following facts and reasons to exist to justify the approval of said request:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM DESERT, CALIFORNIA, AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Recitals. The City Council hereby finds that the foregoing recitals are
true and correct and are incorporated herein as substantive findings of this Resolution.
SECTION 2. Compliance with the California Environmental Quali Act. State CEQA
Guidelines section 15164 requires lead agencies to prepare an addendum to a previously
certified EIR if some changes or additions to the Project are necessary, but none of the
conditions requiring preparation of a subsequent EIR are present. The City Council has
reviewed and considered the 2019 EIR and the 2021 Addendum and finds that these
documents taken together contain a complete and accurate reporting of all the potential
environmental impacts associated with the DSRT SURF Project. The City Council further
finds that the 2021 Addendum has been completed in compliance with CEQA and the State
CEQA Guidelines. The City Council further finds and determines that the Addendum reflects
the City's independent judgment.
SECTION 3. Based on the substantial evidence set forth in the record, including but
not limited to the 2019 EIR and the 2021 Addendum, the City Council finds that an addendum
is an appropriate document for disclosing the changes to the DSRT SURF Project and that
none of the conditions identified in Public Resources Code section 21166 and State CEQA
Guidelines section 15162 requiring subsequent environmental review have occurred, because:
The amended DSRT SURF Project does not constitute a substantial change that
would require major revisions of the 2019 EIR due to the involvement of new
significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified significant effects.
2. There is not a substantial change with respect to the circumstances under which
the DSRT SURF Project will be developed that would require major revisions of the
2019 EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a
substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects.
3. New information of substantial importance has not been presented that was not
known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at
the time the 2019 EIR was certified or adopted, showing any of the following: (i) that
the modifications would have one or more significant effects not discussed in the
earlier environmental documentation; (ii) that significant effects previously
examined would be substantially more severe than shown in the earlier
environmental documentation; (iii) that mitigation measures or alternatives
2
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.2022-09
previously found not to be feasible would, in fact, be feasible and would
substantially reduce one or more significant effects, but the applicant declined to
adopt such measures; or (iv) that mitigation measures or alternatives considerably
different from those analyzed previously would substantially reduce one or more
significant effects on the environment, but which the applicant declined to adopt.
SECTION 4. The City Council readopt those mitigation measures identified in the 2019
EIR applicable to the DSRT SURF Project and as detailed specifically in the Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program ("MMRP") prepared for the EIR.
SECTION 6. The 2019 EIR and the 2021 Addendum, and any other documents and
materials that constitute the record of proceedings upon which these findings have been
based are on file and available for public review at Palm Desert City Hall, 73510 Fred Waring
Drive, Palm Desert, California 92260. The custodian of these records is Norma I Alley, the City
Clerk of the City.
SECTION 7. Findings for Recommended Approval of Specific Plan.
1. The DSRT SURF Specific Plan, as proposed, is consistent with the goals and
policies of the Palm Desert General Plan, including that the Project provides a
unique resort destination and sports facility consistent with the intent of the
Resort and Entertainment District. On November 14, 2019, the City Council
approved DSRT SURF Specific Plan (SP 18-0002) by Resolution 2019-82
governing the land uses, development standards, and design guidelines for the
site and determining that the specific plan demonstrated compatibility of the
applicable goals, policies, and programs contained in the General Plan. The
General Plan land use designation of Resort and Entertainment District allows
development for entertainment and resort destination uses, drawing visitors to
the site. The amendment to the specific plan includes operational function
changes and revisions to the development standards, none of which increases
the density or intensity of the Project. The compatibility of the General Plan
established in the original approval of the Project remains unchanged.
2. The DSRT SURF Specific Plan is not detrimental to the health, safety, or general
welfare or will be materially injurious to the surrounding properties or
improvements in the City of Palm Desert. The amendment to the DSRT SURF
Specific Plan is suitable and appropriate for the location, access, and topography
for development because the intent of Desert Willow is to provide resort -style
development. The site has been previously mass graded and identified for future
resort -style development, all infrastructure to support the Project is nearby, and
improvements to infrastructure to support the Project are feasible, and access to
the site has been studied and is deemed sufficient to support the Project.
3. The amendments to the DSRT SURF Specific Plan are compatible with the
zoning of adjacent properties and ensures the development of desirable
character is harmonious with surrounding properties because the intent of Desert
Willow is to provide a resort -style development. The Project was approved with a
density of 15 dwelling units per acre (maximum 88 residential units), the
amendment to the DSRT SURF Specific Plan does not change the density nor
3
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.2022-09
the intensity of the Project. In fact, the construction of the Project will only contain
83 residential units, which is under the maximum allowed. In addition, the
approved specific plan allows for a 350-room hotel, and the Project will construct
only a 92-room hotel. The new structures incorporate compatible and integrated
architecture, materials and colors, and are not visually obstructive or
disharmonious with surrounding areas or harm major views from adjacent
properties. The grading design would not result in any manufactured slopes or
pads that create any significant adverse visual or compatibility impacts with
adjacent lots, nor block any significant views. The Project is supported by
adequate public facilities and transportation systems and is a compatible use,
type, and intensity with the surrounding areas.
SECTION 8. Findings for Recommended Approval of Tentative Map.
1. That the density of the proposed subdivision is consistent with applicable general
and specific plans.
The amendment to the Project is consistent with the goals, objectives, and
policies of the Palm Desert General Plan ("General Plan"). The General Plan
land use designation is Resort and Entertain District that allows development for
entertainment and resort destination uses, drawing visitors to the site. General
Plan Land Use Policy 4.1 encourages unique resort complexes within the city.
The Project is a resort destination attraction of a surf lagoon with residential
ownership units that complement the Project. The subdivision includes 17.69
acres into five (5) parcels, each to accommodate its respective uses, including
the surf lagoon, hotel and surf center, stack flats including the clubhouse, and
villas that are consistent with the General Plan.
2. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with
applicable general and specific plans.
The amendment to the Project and its design and improvements are consistent
with the General Plan and comply with the development standards of the Specific
Plan. In addition, the lots accommodate the building pads, internal and external
streets, drainage, utilities, and adequate access from Desert Willow.
3. That the site is physically suitable for the type of development.
The site is physically suitable for the type of development for the Project. The
Project is a resort development that is physically suitable for the site and is
consistent with the intent of the specific plan and compatible with the surrounding
uses, which include a golf course, amenities as well as existing resort -style
residential units. The Project site is a 17.69-acre site; the parcel is adequate to
accommodate the 5.5-acre surf lagoon, surf center and facilities, hotel, and
residential units with adequate access and roadways, infrastructure, utilities, and
drainage facilities.
4. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development.
4
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.2022-09
The site is physically suitable for the density allowance of 15 units per acre as
specified in the DSRT SURF Specific Plan resulting in 88 residential units. The
Project amendments include 83 units which are less than the maximum density
and comply with the applicable development standards of the specific plan
making it suitable for the site.
5. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure
fish or wildlife or their habitat.
The amended design of the subdivision or the improvements contemplated for
the Project are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or
substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The certified
Environmental Impact Report (EIR), SCH# 201.9011044, addresses the
environmental impacts associated with the Project, including those impacts that
could cause substantial environmental damage. There are no known fish, wildlife
habitats, or other endangered species on the subject site. No environmental
impacts are identified which substantially and avoidably injure fish, wildlife, or
their habitat.
6. That the design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause
serious public health problems.
The amended design of the subdivision or type of improvements for the Project
are not likely to cause serious public health problems. The conditions of approval
ensure all common area structures, landscaping, sidewalks, parking lot surfacing,
and all other improvements within the Project must be continually maintained in
good condition and repair, all dead or dying landscape material must be replaced
with new landscape material, and a security construction plan must be submitted.
Compliance with these conditions will prevent the subdivision and its
improvements from causing any public health problems for those that enter the
development. Storm drainage, sanitary sewer, water, streets, and all utilities are
available to the site and have the capacity to accommodate the Project. The
subdivision has been designed so the parcels have the necessary infrastructure
to adequately serve the development, and all uses as allowed by the zoning
ordinances that regulate the Project.
7. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict
with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of,
property within the planned subdivision.
The amended design or type of improvements will not conflict with easements
acquired by the public at large for access through or use of the property within
the subdivision. Public utilities for electricity, water, sewer, telecommunications,
and gas service have all been assessed for availability. The access points to the
Project have been reviewed and approved by the Fire Department and Public
Works as part of the overall Project includes easements for roadways, drainage
facilities, and utilities that will be recorded in the final map. There are no known
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.2022-09
public easements traversing the subject site that would be adversely affected by
the Project.
SECTION 9. Findings for Recommended Approval of Design Review Palm Desert
Municipal Code Section 25.68.040.
1. That the proposed development conforms to any legally adopted development
standards.
The DSRT SURF Specific Plan has land use allowances inclusive of a maximum
of the six -acre lagoon, 35,000 square feet surf center, 350 rooms for a hotel, 88
residential units, a clubhouse of 3,125 square feet, and 15,000 square feet for
maintenance and equipment buildings. The amendment to the DSRT SURF
Specific Plan includes height maximums of 50 feet for buildings and an additional
15 feet to accommodate architectural features and related roof equipment and
apparatus. The Project includes a 5.5-acre lagoon, a 7,263-square-foot surf
center (26 feet in height), a four-story, 92-room hotel (55 feet in height), 83
residential units (ranging from 26 feet and 6 inches to 37 feet and 9 inches),
1,494-square-foot clubhouse (24 feet 6 inches in height), and 4,909 square feet
of maintenance buildings (15 feet in height). The land uses and heights specified
above are all within the allowances of the DSRT SURF Specific Plan. The
building lot coverage maximum is 50 percent; the project site proposes 19.9
percent, which is within the required allowance. The setback requirements for the
commercial component and residential components meet the minimum setback
requirements of the DSRT SURF Specific Plan. The Desert Mid -Century Modern
architecture theme is continuous throughout the site with varying architectural
elements and high -quality materials, including the incorporation of indoor and
outdoor spaces that meets the architecture characteristics required by the DSRT
SURF Specific Plan. The on -site parking, including the podium parking within the
hotel and integrated garages for the residential units, provides for the 443
required parking spaces. In addition, Lot E will be improved to include
approximately 288 parking spaces, which will have valet services to the Project.
The Project proposes all landscape remain as low water usage desert
landscaping for the entirety of the Project, including the perimeter. The Project
uses conforms to all the requirements of the DSRT SURF Specific Plan and all
other applicable requirements as conditioned.
2. That the design and location of the proposed development and its relationship to
neighboring existing or proposed developments and traffic is such that it will not
impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood; and that it
will not unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring
existing or proposed developments and that it will not create traffic hazards or
congestion.
The amended Project has been designed as a destination point, including a surf
lagoon, surf center and amenities, hotel, and residential units, which are
compatible uses within a resort development. The proposed Project is located
within the Desert Willow Golf Resort, which features a mix of resort development
C.
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 2022-09
and existing residential units, including a mixture of timeshares and multifamily
units. The Project includes a DSRT SURF Specific Plan, which regulates land
uses and provides development standards to ensure there is continuity of
architectural style and regulation of density and heights of buildings; therefore,
does not impair the desirability of investment. The Environmental impact Report
for the Project provided a Traffic Impact Analysis that reviewed the traffic impact,
including circulation, traffic hazards, and congestion of the uses and operation of
the site, which resulted in mitigation measures less than significant. No
environmental or traffic concerns were identified that would indicate that
development in this area would be unsuitable. The Project has also implemented
a condition of approval for a parking management plan and improvements to an
offsite parking location within proximity to the site to respond to overflow parking
needs.
3. That the design and location of the proposed development are in keeping with
the character of the surrounding neighborhood and is not detrimental to the
harmonious, orderly, and attractive development contemplated by this title and
the General Plan of the City.
The design and location of the amended Project is in keeping with the character
of the surrounding neighborhood and will serve as an additional attraction to the
existing resort development. The Project consists of approximately 18-acres
within an undeveloped area, with connectivity to the Desert Willow Clubhouse
that is adjoining the Project site. The property is designated Resort and
Entertainment in the General Plan, which allows development for a range of
entertainment and resort destination uses for the purpose of drawing visitors to
the site, such as theme parks and sports facilities. The Project includes the high -
quality architectural style, amenities, and more importantly, offers unique
opportunities for residential resort lifestyle and entertainment destinations
inclusive of a surf lagoon and hotel, which will attract visitors and investors to the
City.
4. That the design and location of the proposed development would provide a
desirable environment for its occupants, as well as for its neighbors, and that it is
aesthetically of good composition, materials, textures, and colors.
The design is a Desert Mid -Century Modern architectural theme, with sustainable
building materials incorporating the natural environment and mid-century styles.
The architectural elements include horizontal and vertical planes, varying
roof[ines, shading elements, intuitive and organic wayfinding designs, natural
materials, and blurring lines between indoor and outdoor spaces. The design
utilizes high -quality finishes and materials, including natural elements that
provide shade and create shadow lines, such as building projections, covered
walkways, arcades, and other human -scale elements to reduce the impact of
building mass and create visual interest. The Project includes wave structures at
the entry point to create a sense of arrival. The enclosure of courtyards and
balconies are visually permeable where appropriate and step back on upper
floors is utilized to further reduce the visual impact of building mass and
maximize view corridors and viewsheds of the mountain. The Project site
7
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.2022-09
includes the thoughtful creation of public gathering space to encourage
interaction between guests and residents is achieved by both passive and
intentional design. Landscaping utilizes functional seating design elements
throughout the site by the use of low-rise block and/or stone walls that serve to
define landscaped areas while also providing casual seating throughout the
property. Open lawn and sandy beach areas in proximity to the lagoon and pools
to encourage guests to create gathering space, reminiscent of an authentic
beach experience. More intentional components of the Project include
restaurants and bars, cabanas, lounge chairs, fire pits, and recreational activity
space. The combination of designed gathering throughout the site and amenities
creating intentional spaces promotes a destination resort atmosphere envisioned
for the Project.
5. That the proposed use conforms to all the requirements of the zone in which it is
located and all other applicable requirements.
The Project uses conforms to all the requirements of the DSRT SURF Specific
Plan and all other applicable requirements. The Project use considers the need
for dedication and improvement of necessary streets and sidewalks, including the
avoidance of traffic congestion, and is designed considering topographical and
drainage conditions, including the need for dedication and improvements of
necessary structures as a part thereof. The Project's environmental assessment
and reviews of City departments and outside city agencies have included
appropriate mitigation measures and conditions of approval.
6. That the overall development of the land shall be designed to ensure the
protection of public health, safety, and general welfare.
The overall development of the land is designed to ensure Project is consistent
with the General Plan and as analyzed in the DSRT SURF Specific Plan, The
establishment, maintenance, or operation of the Project does not appear to have
any adverse effects that are detrimental or injurious to property and
improvements within the Desert Willow Golf Resort or the general welfare of the
City. Therefore, the overall building design and the requirements imposed
ensures the protection of public health, safety, and general welfare.
