OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS,
CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL AMEND OF
THE PALM SPRINGS ZONING CODE TO CREATE A NEW SECTION
93.23.00, TO CONSOLIDATE CONDITIONS FOR SPECIFIC USES.
WHEREAS, on April 8, 2009, the Planning Commission voted 7-0 to direct staff to initiate a
Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment (Case 5.1224 - ZTA) to amend the Zoning Code to
consolidate Conditions for Speck Uses, currently found in PSZO Section 94.02.00(H) and
other sections into one new section; and
WHEREAS, on September 8, 2010, the Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed
public hearing on the proposed amendment, at which hearing the Commission carefully
reviewed and considered all of the evidence presented in connection with the project,
including but not limited to the staff report and all written and oral testimony presented, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission hereby determines that the proposed Zoning
Ordinance text amendment is Categorically Exempt under Section 15305 — Minor
Alterations in Land Use Limitations — of the Guidelines for the Implementation of the
California Environmental Quality Act and that the proposed amendment does not result in
any changes in land use or density.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS;
Section 1: The Planning Commission hereby finds that adoption of the proposed
Zoning Text Amendment would:
a. Provide a simpler, correctly formatted and more user-friendly code structure for
use by the Public, the Planning Commission and Staff.
b. Eliminate conditions for specific uses that are not referenced correctly to the
zone in which they are permitted.
C. Create a code structure so that adding new Conditions for Specific Uses in the
future can be made in a consistent and accurate manner.
Section 2: The adoption of the proposed Zone Text Amendment does not change the
text for any of the Conditions for Speck Uses; they remain unchanged and thus remain
consistent with the intent of the Zoning Code and General Plan. The adoption of this
amendment does not add, delete or change any of the previously approved and adopted
Conditions for Speck Uses.
Section 3: Based upon the foregoing, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend
to the City Council amendment of the Palm Springs Zoning Code to establish a new
section titled, "Section 93.23.00 Conditions for Specific Uses", as attached hereto and
