Parcel Map 35236 pursuant to the provisions of Section 94.02.00 (B) of the Palm
Springs Zoning Code.
B. The City Council of the City of Palm Springs last approved Planned Development
District 333 (PDD 333), on June 19, 2019, for a 156-room hotel and a 40-unit
condominium complex ("Amended Project').
C. The project applicant timely submitted a request for an extension of the Initial
Project and applied for amendments to the PDD 333 and Tentative Parcel Map 35236
(TPM 35236) (collectively the "Amended Project').
D. On September 14, 2022, a public hearing on the Amended Project was held by
the Planning Commission in accordance with applicable law and voted to continue the
hearing to a date certain of September 28, 2022.
E. On September 28, 2022, a public hearing on the Amended Project was held by
the Planning Commission in accordance with applicable law.
F. The Amended Project is considered a "project' pursuant to the terms of the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), and a Subsequent Mitigated Negative
Declaration has been prepared for the Amended Project and was distributed for public
review and comments in accordance with CEQA.
G. A Subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared pursuant to CEQA
guidelines and was adopted by the City Council on June 7, 2017.
H. The Planning Commission has carefully reviewed and considered all of the
Planning Commission Resolution No. 6927 September 28, 2022
5.1132-PD 333 AMND Page 2
evidence presented in connection with the meeting on the Amended Project, including
but not limited to the staff report, the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the final
Addendum, and all written and oral testimony presented.
I. Pursuant to Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the Planning
Commission has considered the effect of the proposed project on the housing needs of
the region and has balanced these needs against the public service needs of residents
and available fiscal and environmental resources.
J. The Planning Commission has carefully reviewed and considered all of the
evidence presented in connection with the Amended Project, including but not limited to
the staff report and all written and oral testimony presented.
K. Pursuant to Section 94.03.00(E) of the Palm Springs Zoning Code, the Planning
Commission finds as follows:
a. The uses, density and intensity of the proposed preliminary development
plan are in conformance to the general plan land use designation for the
site;
The proposed amendment to Planned Development District 333 is consistent with the
High -Density Residential designation of the General Plan and the Section 14 Specific
Plan designation of High Residential as amended, which represents the General Plan
and Zoning for the property on which the project is located. The hotel, residential and
restaurant uses are all in conformance to the general plan and Specific Plan land use
designation of the site. The site is 7.8 acres in size allowing a maximum of up to 336
units. The addition of 24 condo units to the southeast section of the site, and the
addition of one more unit to the residential tower, for a total of 29 tower unit, brings the
overall residential units at the development to 65. The total number of hotel rooms
remains at 156. According to the Land Use Element of the General Plan, typical
development in the High -Density Residential designation would include duplexes,
townhomes, and apartments. Hotels and motels are also permitted up to 43 rooms per
net acre (up to 86 rooms per net acre permitted on Indian Land) as long as they are
consistent with the design and character of the surrounding neighborhoods and do not
create significant design, parking, or traffic impacts to the surrounding residential
neighborhood. The Dream Hotel and its residential components met all the above stated
requirements of the general plan.
b. The uses permitted under the proposed development plan are in
conformance to the requirements listed in Section 94.03.00(D)(1), and are
not detrimental to adjacent properties or residents;
The amended project consists of a hotel, residential and restaurant uses; the uses are
consistent with the originally approved project at the site. As planned, designed, and
conditioned, is consistent with the Section 14 Specific Plan and the City of Palm Springs
Planning Commission Resolution No. 6927 September 28, 2022
5.1132-PD 333 AMND Page 3
vision of the area for the future. The density and the overall size and scope of the
project are still in keeping with the planned development district; furthermore, the 7.8-
acre site is physically suitable and appropriate for the amended project with the 24-unit
condominium project. Given the close proximity of the site to the Convention Center and
the downtown area, the addition of residential uses will not be detrimental to adjacent
properties or residents. The location provides sufficient access points for all uses
proposed.
c. The preliminary development plan is in conformance to the property
development standards listed in Section 94.03.00(D)(2);
The proposed amended project is not seeking any relief or deviations from the
previously approved development and design standards of Planned Development
District 333. The proposed amendments are relative to site reconfiguration and the
elimination of the event center/farmhouse to be replaced with condominium buildings.
The proposed residential buildings are in compliance with all the development
standards of PDD 333 in terms of density, setbacks, and height limitations. The project
site is located within the boundaries of the Section 14 Master Plan; per Section 6.2. of
Section 14 Specific Plan, "the maximum height of high-rise buildings shall be 100 feet
not including all appurtenances on the buildings, as measured from any point of natural
elevation of the ground at the building line, before grading, to the maximum projection
on top of the building above the same point". The maximum height of the hotel is 56
feet; the maximum height of the condominium building to the northwest is 52 feet and
the maximum height of the condominium building to the southeast is 44 feet. The
project is also in compliance with parking requirements as listed in Section 93.06.00 of
the Zoning Ordinance.
d. The site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the density and/or
intensity of the proposed development;
The project site is 7.8 acres and large enough to accommodate the hotel development
and the residential uses. The Amended Planned Development District made
modifications to the development while maintaining the original intent and purposed
envisioned for the site. All development standards such as setbacks, sidewalks, walls,
and fences are consistent with the development standards established by PDD 333 and
more specifically, the Section 14 Specific Plan.
e. The site for the proposed preliminary development plan has adequate
access to streets and highways properly designed and improved to carry
the type and quantity of traffic to be generated by the proposed use, and
the design for the site enhances or continues the city's existing grid in
accordance with the Circulation Plan of the City of Palm Springs General
Plan;
The project proposes primary vehicular access to existing public streets from North
Calle Alvarado. There is another entry on the easterly portion of the development from
Planning Commission Resolution No. 6927 September 28, 2022
5.1132-1313 333 AMND Page 4
Avenida Caballero for service vehicles only and an additional Fire access on East
Amado Road, therefore the development will relate to existing streets and highways
such as North Indian Canyon Drive which is a major thoroughfare. The site is also within
a walking to distance to the downtown and uptown areas of the City. Also, traffic and
circulation within and around the development were analyzed in the previously adopted
Mitigated Negative Declaration and incorporated into the current document. The
addition of 25 residential units to the project site is consistent with density standards
anticipated in Section 14 and will not result in significant traffic impacts.
f. The public benefit provided by the development is mitigates any waivers
or exceptions requested as part of the preliminary development plan; and
This project was originally approved in 2007 prior to the adoption of public benefit
policy, moreover, the applicant is not requesting for any new relief or deviations from the
Code or the previously established development standards with this amendment.
According to the application, the amended project will include the addition of twenty-four
(24) condominium units to the southeast section of the site, reconfiguration of the
previously approved twelve (12) unit condominium building at the northwest portion of
the site and amending the residential tower condo units to have one more unit. These
changes will not affect the established development standards of the project; therefore,
the applicant will not be required to provide public benefit to the amended project.
g. That the conditions to be imposed and shown on the approved preliminary
development plan are necessary to protect the public health, safety and
general welfare.
The City Council previously approved conditions for the development; these conditions
from different departments of the City which include Planning, Building, Fire and Public
Works will remain valid and in effect for the project since the circumstances surrounding
the development have not changed significantly. Also, revised conditions from the
original entitlement and Mitigation Measures from the adopted Mitigated Negative
Declaration will continue to apply to the amended project. Therefore, it has been
determined that all the conditions imposed on the development are deemed necessary
to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare.
REQUIRED FINDINGS — Tentative Tract Map Amendment:
Additional findings are required for the proposed subdivision pursuant to Section 66474
of the Subdivision Map Act. These findings and a discussion of the project as it relates
to these findings follow:
a. The proposed Tentative Tract Map is consistent with all applicable general and
specific plans.
The previously approved tentative tract map was for a two -parcel condominium map
Planning Commission Resolution No. 6927 September 28, 2022
5.1132-PD 333 AMND Page 5
and three lettered lots for the 7.8-acre parcel. The applicant is now proposing to modify
the condominium map that will make a 3-parcel map with three lettered lots (Lots A, B,
& C) for street purposes only. The amended map will contain the hotel building in Lot 1;
the north villas residential/condominium building will be in Lot 2; and the south villas
condominium buildings will Lot 3. In terms of required lot sizes and availability of public
infrastructure, the map is consistent with the City's General Plan and the Section 14
Specific Plan respectively.
b. The design and improvements of the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map are
consistent with the zone in which the property is located.
The design of the map is consistent with the allowable uses under the Planned
Development District for this property and is consistent with the development standards
of the Section 14 Specific Plan. The required public improvements include sanitary
sewer, water, gas, and electricity and are consistent with Chapter 4 of the Section 14
Specific Plan.
C. The site is physically suited for this type of development.
As a flat in -fill property, the 7.8-acre site is physically suited for the amended project.
Construction activities at the site commenced in 2018, however, construction work have
been stalled for over three years due to issues not relating to the physical suitability of
the site. The on -going construction of the hotel building and residences on the site is
appropriate at this location, as planned by Section 14 Specific Plan and the 2007
adopted General Plan. The project site is surrounded by existing residential
development, the convention center and City streets.
d. The site is physically suited for the proposed density of development.
The site can accommodate the 156-room hotel and the 65-unit residential uses as
proposed which are within density limits of the General Plan and the Section 14 Specific
Plan The approximately 7.8-acre site is physically suited for the size, scope and density
of the hotel and residential uses.
e. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause environmental damage or
substantially and avoidably injure fish, wildlife, or their habitats.
The Amended Tentative Tract Map and associated Planned Development District have
been reviewed under the California Environmental Quality Act, and a Mitigated Negative
Declaration has been adopted by the City Council. Mitigation measures have been
included which will reduce potential impacts to less than significant levels. The site was
previously disturbed and developed as a parking lot for many years and does not
include any natural habitat. The project will therefore not damage or injure fish, wildlife,
or their habitats.
Planning Commission Resolution No. 6927 September 28, 2022
5.1132-131) 333 AMND Page 6
f. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause
serious public health problems.
The subdivision is designed to meet or exceed City standards, and will include utility
improvements such as sanitary sewer, water, gas, and electricity. The development of
the hotel and residential uses will be required to meet or exceed City building codes.
The project will not cause public health problems.
g. The design of the subdivision 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 proposed subdivision.
There are no known public easements or access across the subject property, therefore
the design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements for access through the
property. Any utility easements can be accommodated within the project design.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that based upon the foregoing, the Planning
Commission recommends approval of the amended project and amended Tentative
Parcel Map 35236 to the City Council, for the Dream Hotel located at the northwest corner
of Avenida Caballeros and Amado Road subject to the Conditions of Approval attached
