The R-3 Zone allows for the restaurant use, subject to a conditional use permit and the
criteria outlined in Section 92.04.01.D.17 of the Zoning Ordinance.

harmony with the various elements or objectives of the general plan, and is not
,detrimental to existing uses or to future uses specifically permitted in the zone in which
the proposed use is to be located;

neighborhood;
The subject property is adequate in size and shape for the restaurant use and will not '

Page 5
The proposed restaurant is serviced by a collector street (Camino Real) and an
emergency access, within the proposed project, to a major thoroughfare (East Palm
Canyon Drive). Both of these streets are fully improved and have the capacity to carry the
type and quantity of traffic expected to be generated by the restaurant use.
e. That the conditions to be imposed and shown on the approved site plan are deemed
necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare and may include minor
modification of the zone's property development standards.
The proposed criteria for a conditional use permit for the restaurant and the proposed

public health, safety and general welfare.

surrounded by a mixture of hotel, commercial, single-family residences, and multiple-
family residential properties. The proposed project is serviced by fully improved streets
that have the capacity to carry the type and quantity of traffic expected to be generated.
b. That the site in question is not appropriate for other uses allowed by right within the
underlying zone;

contribute to the housing supply for the City. The proposed project is desirable for the
community and is in harmony with the Housing Element and objectives of the General
Plan.
Section 7: Pursuant to Government Code Section 66474 (Subdivision Map Act), the
Planning Commission finds that with the incorporation of those conditions attached in Exhibit
A:
1. The proposed Tentative Map is consistent with applicable general and specific plans.
The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan designation
for the site is H43/21, High Density Residential. The General Plan allows up to 116
dwelling units on the project site. The applicant is proposing 34 dwelling units and 1
commercial unit. Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan.
2. The design of improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General
Plan and any applicable Specific Plan.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 the Planning Commission finds that the
proposed subdivision and the provisions for its design and improvement are compatible
with the objectives, polices, and general land uses and program provided in the City's
Resolution No. 21316
Page 6
General Plan. All street, drainage, and utilities improvements will be constructed to the '
standards of the General Plan and Conditions of Approval associated with TTM 32732.
The Planned Development District development standards have been determined to be
compatible with overall goals and policies of the General Plan in order to provide quality
architecture, open space and distinctive landscape elements. Therefore it is concluded
that the Planned Development District development standards will not be in conflict with
the overall intent of the General Plan.
3. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development contemplated by
the proposed subdivision.
The project proposes the subdivision of approximately 5.55 acres into 11 lots of: 1 lot of
approximately 149,897 square feet (3.44 acres) for 25 condominiums, 9 lots of
approximately 6,150 to 10,788 square feet for the 9 single family residences, and 1 lot of
approximately 24,766 square feet for the restaurant. The proposed development is under
the maximum allowable density of 116 units, as permitted under the General Plan. The
subject property is surrounded with a mix of single-family residential, multiple-family
residential, hotel, and commercial uses and acts as a transition area between a more
dense development pattern to the north and single-family neighborhood to the south.
4. The design of the proposed subdivision or the proposed improvements is not likely to
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat.
All potential environmental impacts as a result of developing the subject property are fully
disclosed in the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration. The incorporation of the
mitigation measures as prescribed in the Mitigated Negative Declaration will ensure that
any potentially significant impacts will be reduced to a level of insignificance. Therefore,
the design of the proposed subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat.
5. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public
health problems.

conditions of approval including, but not limited to, the application of the Uniform Building
Code Seismic Safety Standards, and the City of Palm Springs Fugitive Dust Control
Ordinance in order to ensure public health and safety.
6. 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 proposed
subdivision. '
The applicant will be required to construct on and off-site improvements. Therefore the
design and the type of improvements proposed will not conflict with easements acquired
by the public at large.
