SECTION 2. Article 29.12 of the Palm Springs ,Ordinance Code is hereby
amended to read as follows:
ARTICLE 29.12
TAXICAB, AIRPORT TRANSPORTATION AND BUS SERVICE
29.12-1 FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS. After termination of all public
ground transportation service in Palm Springs, the City
Council of the City of Palm Springs caused an in-depth
study to be made by a citizens' committee and staff to
determine the needs of the City of Palm Springs for public
transportation.
The aforesaid committee and staff have made such a study
and have recommended to the City Council that there is an
urgent public need for an integrated system of taxicab,
bus and airport transportation service.
The City Council has reviewed three firm proposals for
public ground transportation services within the City.
The City Council of the City of Palm Springs now finds,
based upon the aforesaid study, that there is an imperative
public convenience and necessity requirement for the
immediate institution of taxicab, bus and airport trans-
portation service.
The City Council of the City of Palm Springs finds that
such services to serve the imperative public convenience
and necessity requirements should be provided by the most
financially able and most experienced public transportation
operator available.
The City Council finds that Satellite Charter Coach, Inc. ,
dba Yellow Cab of Palm Springs, a wholly-owned entity of
Yellow Cab Company, a corporation, has the financial ability
and the peculiar transportation expertise necessary to meet
the heretofore found public convenience and necessity require-
ment for an integrated transportation system in the City of
Palm Springs, the nature of the required services being such
that only an experienced, reliable and financially capable
operator can meet these needs.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS,
CALIFORNIA, AMENDING ARTICLE 560 OF CHAPTER
56 OF THE PALM SPRINGS ORDINANCE CODE, BY
I ADDING SECTIONS 5601.15 AND 5601.16 THERETO
DECLARING DETERIORATION AND DISREPAIR OF
STRUCTURES AND INADEQUATE MAINTENANCE OF
GROUNDS TO BE A PUBLIC NUISANCE.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA DOES ORDAIN
AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. PURPOSE. The City Council of the City of. Palm Springs
hereby finds that the protection of the health, safety and general,
welfare of the residents and visitors of 'the City is so completely
related to the quality of the appearance of the City that it is
imperative to enact forthwith the following regulations to prevent
and control the imminent deterioration and depreciation of certain
buildings and structures and to uphold the appearance and value of
certain land, After investigation, inspection, observation and
consultation with the general public and with various community and
civic groups, this Council must come to the irrefutable conclusion
that a number of properties within the City of Palm Springs have
depreciated in appearance and value because of deterioration and
disrepair of structures and the lack of general maintenance to the
extent that the general welfare of the City is affected. It is the
further finding of this Council that the effect of such conditions
I has an appreciable, detrimental impact on the appearance and property
values of the neighborhood and community in general. This is partic-
ularly true where houses and buildings remain uninhabited and unoccupied
over a protracted period of time without noticeable use or caretaking.
It is therefore the opinion of this Council, and it hereby finds that
such conditions constitute a public nuisance, where viewable, and must
be abated as such.
SECTION 2. Article 560 of the Palm Springs Ordinance Code is hereby
amended by adding Sections 5601.15 and 5601.16 to read as follows :
5601.15 DETERIORATING AND DEFECTIVE STRUCTURES. Any structure
within the City of Palm Springs in a state of substantial
deterioration, such as peeling paint on a facade, broken
windows, roofs in disrepair, damaged porches or broken
steps or other such deterioration or disrepair not
otherwise constituting a violation and which is viewable
from a public right-of-way or viewable from the sites of
neighboring properties, is hereby declared to be a public
nuisance. A state of substantial deterioration shall
mean that degree of deterioration which would tend to
depreciate the aesthetic and property values of surround-
ing property.
I 5601,16 PROPERTY MAINTENANCE. The substantial lack of maintenance
of grounds within the City on which structures exist where
said grounds are viewable by the public from a public
right-of-way or viewable from the sites of neighboring
properties, is hereby declared a public nuisance. The
substantial lack of maintenance shall mean allowing trees,
shrubs, plants, vegetation or debris to exist on the
grounds in a state and to the extent that such a condition
would tend to depreciate the aesthetic and property values
of surrounding property.
