Re: Palm Springs City Council Meeting May 25,2023, ITEM 2.C. AN APPLICATION BY THE CITY OF PALM
SPRINGS FOR HISTORIC DESIGNATION OF “THE SECURITY FIRST NATIONAL BANK”
LOCATED AT 500 SOUTH INDIAN CANYON DRIVE, (APN #508-121-001), CASE HSPB #137
To: Mayor Grace Elena Garner, Mayor Pro Tem Jeffrey Bernstein, Councilmembers Ron deHarte, Christy Gilbert
Holstege, and Lisa Middleton.
Greetings from the Neighborhoods of Warm Sands and Baristo!
As you may know, the aforementioned Landmark is within the great Warm Sands Neighborhood. We are delighted that
The Security First National Bank, now Union Bank, is receiving its due recognition.
We therefore support the Recommendation of 2.C., “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, DESIGNATING “THE SECURITY FIRST NATIONAL BANK” LOCATED 500
SOUTH INDIAN CANYON DRIVE, AS A CLASS 1 (LANDMARK) HISTORIC RESOURCE HSPB #137, SUBJECT
TO CONDITIONS (APN 508-121-001).”
We note that, as the bank’s traffic entrance is on Ramon Road, and as Ramon Road forms the border between the
Warm Sands and Baristo Neighborhoods, that the Baristo Neighborhood joins with Warm Sands in supporting this
Recommendation.
Sincerely,
Tom Oliver, Board Chair, Warm Sands NOrg Ned Barker, Board Chair, Baristo NOrg
