A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA,
APPROVING CASE 3.3551 SFR; AN APPLICATION
FOR A 5,304 SQUARE FOOT SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENCE ON A ROUGHLY 21,551 SQUARE FOOT
LOT AT 3100 MARIGOLD CIRCLE; ZONE R-1-B, APN
512-280-001; SECTION 35.
WHEREAS, Richard Chambers and Lary Daymude, (the "Applicant") have filed an
application with the City pursuant to Section 94.04.00 of the Palm Springs Zoning Code
(PSZC) for a Major Architectural application to allow the construction of a single family
residence on a lot at 3100 Marigold Circle, Zone R-1-13; and
WHEREAS, on March 12, 2012, the Architectural Advisory Committee (AAC) reviewed
the proposed project and voted unanimously to recommend approval of the project to
the Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, on March 28, 2012, a public meeting for Major Architectural Application
Case 3.3551 SFR was held by the Planning Commission in accordance with applicable
law; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has carefully reviewed and considered all of the
evidence presented in connection with the hearing on the project, including but not
limited to the staff report and all written and oral testimony presented.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the
project is a Class III exemption and is categorically exempt per Section 15303(a) (New
single-family residence).
Section 2: Architectural Review is required for development of each lot in Tract 29632
pursuant to Zoning Code Section 94.04.00. Specific aspects of design shall be
examined to determine whether the proposed development will provide desirable
environment for its occupants as well as being compatible with the character of adjacent
and surrounding developments, and whether aesthetically it is of good composition,
materials, textures and colors. Conformance is based on consideration of the following:
1. Site layout, orientation, location of structures and relationship to one
another and to open spaces and topography. Definition of pedestrian and
vehicular areas, i.e., sidewalks as distinct from parking areas,
The project proposes a single family house, detached casita and related landscaping,
paved drives, and terraces surrounding a swimming pool. The project conforms to the
setbacks and requirements for open space and yards. The landscaping is designed to
maintain privacy while not blocking views. The Planning Commission has concluded
Planning Commission Resolution 6260 March 28, 2012
Case 3.3551 SFR A Single Family Residence at 3100 Marigold Lane Page 2 of 3
the project conforms to this statement.
2. Harmonious relationship with existing and proposed adjoining
developments and in the context of the immediate neighborhood
community, avoiding both excessive variety and monotonous repetition,
but allowing similarity of style, if wan -anted,
The project is located in a neighborhood of large custom designed homes, each
individual in their design and orientation on the lots. The proposed house is
complementary to the existing development, and is respectful of views from adjacent
unbuilt lots. The Planning Commission determines that the project conforms to this
statement.
3. Maximum height, area, setbacks and overall mass, as well as parts of any
structure (buildings, walls, screens towers or signs) and effective
concealment of all mechanical equipment;
The proposed residence conforms to all setbacks, height limits, minimum and maximum
area limits. Perimeter walls conform to the development standards of the Zoning Code.
Therefore the project conforms to this statement.
4. Building design, materials and colors to be sympathetic with desert
surroundings; AND
5. Harmony of materials, colors and composition of those elements of a
structure, including overhangs, roofs, and substructures which are visible
simultaneously,
AND
6. Consistency of composition and treatment,
The project is proposed with a traditional "Spanish ranch style" motif clad in stucco with
two-piece barrel tile on gable roofs. The materials and colors are warm hued colors
considered to be complementary to the desert. Thus, the project is consistent with
these statements.
7. Location and type of planting, with regard for desert climate conditions.
Preservation of specimen and landmark trees upon a site, with proper
irrigation to insure maintenance of all plant materials;
The project proposes mostly drought -tolerant plant species deemed appropriate to the
desert environment. There are no landmark or specimen plants or trees on the site.
The project is therefore deemed in conformance with this statement.
