Home My WebLink About7/5/2001 - STAFF REPORTS (23) DATE: July 05, 2001 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Planning & Building TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 29934 AND CASE NO. 3.2014 - APPLICATION BY PALM SPRINGS MODERN HOMES, LLC FOR A TENTATIVE TRACT MAP TO ALLOW FOR THE SUBDIVISION OF 2 ACRES INTO 24 CONDOMINIUM PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 655 EAST ARENAS ROAD, R-4 ZONE, SECTION 14. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve a Tentative Tract Map to allow for the subdivision of 2 acres into 24 condominium properties located at 655 E.Arenas Road on parcel number 508-087-015, subject to the attached Conditions of Approval. BACKGROUND: The Planning Commission, at a duly noticed public hearing on May 9, 2001 voted to recommend that the City Council approve this tentative map. Palm Springs Modern Homes, LLC is proposing the subdivision of an existing 2 acre lot into 24 condominium properties. The proposed site, located at 655 E. Arenas Road, is located near the southeast corner of Arenas Road and Calle El Segundo, directly to the east of the existing Catholic Church. The site itself is approximately 165 feet wide and 328 feet long, with no significant slope in any direction. In conjunction with the Tentative Tract Map application,the applicant is proposing the construction of a 24 unit gated condominium complex. These units, ranging in size from 1,556 square feet to 1,690 square feet, are arranged into three buildings of 8 units each. The units themselves are designed as two-story townhouses with individual exterior entries, each consisting of 2 bedrooms. Each building, designed in a U shape, surrounds the parking area for the residents of that building, creating a parking "court'. The required number of parking spaces for this project is 42 (48provided). ADJACENT ZONING/LAND USE: North: R-4-VP(Vehicle Parking, Large-Scale Hotel&Multiple Family&Limited Retail Commercial) Current Land Use: Parking Structure South: R-4 (Hotel & Multiple Family) Current Land Use: Apartment Complex East: R-4 (Hotel & Multiple Family) Current Land Use: Vacant West: R-4 (Hotel & Multiple Family) Current Land Use: Church aoo4 Page 2 of 2 Staff Report Case No. 3.2014/TTM 29934 July 05, 2001 ANALYSIS: The subject property is zoned R-4, which has a density ratio of 1 dwelling unit per 1,500 square feet of lot area. By right of zone, the applicant could propose up to 58 units on this site. Instead, they are proposing less then half of that amount in exchange for a larger amount of usable open space. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS AND NOTIFICATION: Pursuant to CEQA, an initial study has been prepared and it has been determined that the project will not have a significant impact on the environment. All property owners within 400 feet were notified. At the public hearing several residents expressed concerns about loss of views and potential development on adjacent properties. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: On May 09, 2001,the Planning Commission voted to recommend that the City Council approve the proposed project based on the Conditions of Approval.

Incorporated herein by reference is the Final Environmental Impact Report on the General Plan Update. 1. LAND USE AND PLANNING Would the proposal: a) Conflict with general plan designation or zoning? ❑ ❑ ❑ 19 b) Conflict with applicable environmental plans or policies adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Be incompatible with existing land use in the vicinity? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Affect agricultural resources or operations (e.g. impacts to soils or farmlands, or impacts from incompatible land uses)? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an established community(including a low-income or minority community)? ❑ ❑ ❑ 1 a-e)NO IMPACT. The proposed project is a residential subdivision,similar to adjacent land uses. There are no agricultural resources in the area of the project. The project will not disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an established community upon build out. Therefore,there should be no impacts to planning as a result of the project. 2. POPULATION AND HOUSING Would the proposal: a) Cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections? ❑ ❑ ❑ 29 b) Induce substantial growth in an area either directly or indirectly (e.g. through projects in an undeveloped area or extension or directly or indirectly (e.g. through projects in an undeveloped area or extension of major Infrastructure)? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Displace existing housing, especially affordable housing? ❑ ❑ ❑ 2. a-c)NO IMPACT. Since the subdivision only proposes 24 residential lots,there should be no impacts to population and housing as it will be consistent with the General Plan designation upon approval of the Tentative Tract Map. The project site is located on vacant properly that is adjacent to a developed area of the city. Thus, there should be no extension of major infrastructure. Since the site is vacant, displacement of existing housing will not occur. Therefore,there should be no impacts to population and housing as a result of the project. 4 �t 7 Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact 3. GEOLOGIC PROBLEMS Would the proposal result in or expose people to potential impacts involving: a) Fault rupture? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Seismic ground shaking? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Seismic ground failure,including liquefaction? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Seiche,tsunami,or volcanic hazard? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Landslides or mudflows? ❑ ❑ ❑ f) Erosion, changes in topography or unstable soil conditions from excavation, grading and fill? ❑ ❑ ❑ 19 g) Subsidence of the land? ❑ ❑ ❑ h) Expansive soils? ❑ ❑ ❑ 1) Unique geologic or physical features? ❑ ❑ ❑ j) Is a major landform, ridgeline, canyon, etc. involved? ❑ ❑ ❑ 3.a-j)NO IMPACT. The subject site is located on the valley floor and is underlain by deposits of alluvium. Because the site is generally level, there are no unique geological features. There are no known geological hazards present on the site other than groundshaking potential associated with earthquakes There are no known unstable earth conditions associated with the project site based on the review of the Seismic Safety Element of the City of Palm Springs General Plan. Therefore, there will be no geologic impacts on the project as a result of the project,nor will the project create geologic impacts. A soils report will be required as part of the normal grading plan and construction document review process. 4. WATER Would the proposal result in: a) Changes in absorption rates,drainage patterns,or rate and amount of surface runoff? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Exposure of people or property to water related hazards such as flooding? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Discharge into surface waters or other alternation of surface water quality (e.g. temperature, dissolved oxygen or turbidity)? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Changes in the amount of surface water in any water body? ❑ ❑ ❑ 5 0ZD 4/D Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact e) Changes in currents, or the course or direction of water movements? ❑ ❑ ❑ f) Change in the quantity of ground waters, either through direct additions or withdrawals,or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations, or through substantial loss of groundwater recharge capability? ❑ ❑ ❑ s g) Altered direction or rate of flow of groundwater? ❑ ❑ ❑ s h) Impacts to groundwater quality? ❑ ❑ ❑ s i) Substantial reduction in the amount of groundwater otherwise available forpublicwater supplies? ❑ ❑ ❑ s j) Are there any on-site or any proposed wells? Dyes sNo 4.a-i)NO IMPACT. Based upon a review of the Federal Emergency Management Agency,Preliminary Flood Insurance Rates Maps,and the knowledge of the Department of Planning&Building and the City Engineer,there is no flood hazard on-site during the 100 year flood event. The development of the 24 proposed lots will result in some additional storm water run-off,but this should be very minimal. There are no additional issues relating to drainage and groundwater concerns. Therefore,there are no potential drainage or groundwater hazards present on the subject site. 5. AIR QUALITY Would the proposal: a) Violate any air quality standard or contribute to an existing or projected air quality violation? ❑ ❑ s ❑ b) Expose sensitive receptors to pollutants? ❑ ❑ s ❑ c) Alter air movement,moisture,or temperature,or cause any change in climate? ❑ ❑ ❑ s d) Create objectionable odors? ❑ ❑ ❑ s 5.a,b)LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT. Casitas Arenas Condominiums are located directly downwind of the proposed project site. This exposes the residents to dust during construction. To minimize construction activity emissions,the project applicant will be required to comply with the City's Fugitive Dust and Erosion Control Ordinance. Compliance with this Ordinance will make the impacts less than significant. 5.c,d)NO IMPACT. With the adoption of the General Plan,the City Council adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations regarding air quality. This statement acknowledged that it is not feasible to reduce impacts to air quality to a level of insignificance at this time. Implementation of the General Plan mitigation recommended by the South Coast Air Quality Management District will reduce the magnitude of the impacts as much as feasible. The addition of 24 condominium units will not cause a significant impact. 6 40 41) Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact 6. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION Would the proposal result in: a) Estimated Average Daily Trips generated by the project? (S.F=10; M.F. = 6; or from ITE): ❑ ❑ ® ❑ b) Increased vehicle trips or traffic congestion? ❑ ❑ ® ❑ c) Hazards to safety from design features(e.g.,sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses(e.g.,farm equipment)? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Inadequate emergency access or access to nearby uses? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Insufficient parking capacity on-site or off- site? ❑ ❑ ❑ Hazards or barriers for pedestrians or bicyclists? ❑ ❑ ❑ g) Conflicts with adopted policies supporting alternative transportation (e.g.bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? ❑ ❑ ❑ h) Rail,waterborne or air traffic impacts? ❑ ❑ ❑ 6. a-lb)LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT. The proposed 24 condominium units will generate more traffic in the area then currently exists. However,due to the remaining vacant lots in the area,the increased traffic should not be elevated to a level above that seen by other neighborhoods throughout the City of Palm Springs. The applicant is required to dedicate additional right-of-way along Arenas Road to accommodate the future widening of the street. This will effectively mitigate any increase in traffic generated by the construction of this project. 6.c-h)NO IMPACT. The project site is located adjacent to an urbanized area of the City. Circulation within the vicinity of the project site will be adequate based upon the judgment of the Department of Planning&Building and the Engineering Division. The applicant will be required to construct sidewalks around the perim eter of the project. The project will not affect rail,waterborne,or air traffic. Therefore,there is no potential for a significant impact to these traffic related issues as a result of the project. 7. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES Would the proposal result in impacts to: a) Endangered,threatened,or rare species or their habitats (including but not limited to plants,fish, insects,animals,and birds)? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Locally designated species? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Locally designated natural communities(e.g. oak forest,coastal habitat,etc.)? ❑ ❑ ❑ 7 vZoAlz Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact d) Wetland habitat (e.g. marsh, riparian and vernal pool)? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Wildlife dispersal or migration corridors? ❑ ❑ ❑ f) Is consultation with the California Fish and Game or the Department of Fish and Wildlife Service,as a trustee agency,required? ❑YES ®NO 7,a-e)NO IMPACT. The subject property is located adjacent to an urbanized area of the City.Commercial and residential development exists around the subject property. Based on a site inspection by the Department of Planning&Building,the site is devoid of any sensitive, rare or endangered species of plants or potential habitat for endangered, threatened,or rare animal species or their habitats. Therefore, no potentially significant impacts are expected to occur on plant and animal life as a result of this project. 8. ENERGY AND MINERAL RESOURCES Would the proposal create: a) Conflict with adopted energy conservation plans? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Use non-renewable resources in a wasteful and inefficien manner? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of a future value to the region and the residents of the State? ❑ ❑ ❑ 8.a-b)NO IMPACT. Since the project only entails a 24 lot residential subdivision,the project will not conflict or interfere with an energy conservation plan. The project site does not contain any mineral resources being located in an urbanized area of the City. Therefore,there should be no impacts to energy and mineral resources as a result of the project. 9. HAZARDS Would the proposal: a) Be a risk of accidental explosion or release substances(including,but not limited to: oil, pesticides,chemicals,or radiation? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Create possible interference with an emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Create any health hazard or potential health hazard? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Create exposure of people to existing sources of potential health hazards? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Increase the risk of fire hazard in areas with flammable brush,grass or trees? ❑ ❑ ❑ 8 ;20 Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact 9.a-e)NO IMPACT. In the judgment of the Department of Planning&Building,there are no aspects of the proposed projector of project construction which would involve explosives,pesticides,radiation,chemicals,or other hazardous substances. In addition,the project site is not located within a fire hazard area. The proposed improvements will not block roadways or routes used by the Fire Department and the Police Department. Therefore, there would be no risk of a release of or exposure to hazardous materials which would result in a potential for a significant impact on the environment. 10. NOISE Would the proposal result in: a) Increases in existing noise levels? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Exposure of people to severe noise levels? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Will the project be compatible with the noise compatibility planning criteria according to Table 6-F of the Palm Springs Municipal Airport F.A.R. Part 150 Noise Compatibility study? ®YES ONO 10. a, b)NO IMPACT. The proposed residential subdivision is expected to generate noise levels that would be typical for residential development. The site is located in an urbanized area adjacent to existing residential uses. In the evaluation of the Departmentof Planning &Building,noise levels will not exceed the noise levels stated within the Palm Springs Municipal Code,Chapter 11.74. The project site is not located within the Airport F.A.R.Part 150 Noise Compatibility study. Therefore,no potentially significant impacts to the environment would result from noise. 11. PUBLIC SERVICES Would the proposal have an effect upon or result in a need for new or altered government services in any of the following areas: a) Fire protection? ❑ ❑ ❑ Distance to nearest fire station(1/4 mile) b) Police protection? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Schools? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Maintenance of public facilities, including roads? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Other governmental services? ❑ ❑ ❑ 11.a-e)NO IMPACT. The application only entails subdividing 2 acres into 24 residential lots. Thus,the project should not impact existing fire and police services. The applicant will be required to pay the Palm Springs Unified School District to mitigate potential impacts to the school district. Therefore,there should be no impacts to public services as a result of this project. 9 �dh1$0 Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact 12. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS Would the proposal result in a need for new systems or supplies,or substantial alterations to the following utilities: a) Power or natural gas? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Communications systems? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Local or regional water treatment or distribution facilities? ❑ ❑ ❑ d) Sewer or septic tanks? ❑ ❑ ❑ e) Storm water drainage? ❑ ❑ ❑ f) Solid waste disposal? ❑ ❑ ❑ g) Local or regional water supplies? ❑ ❑ ❑ 12.a-g)NO IMPACT. The project is located within an urbanized area of the City. All utilities and services are currently provided to the subject area. The project is not large enough to require modifications to the existing services other than street improvements adjacent to the subject property. There are existing Southern California Edison easements that run through the subject property. Therefore,there should be no impacts to utilities and service systems as a result of the project. 13. AESTHETICS Would the proposal: a) Affect a scenic vista or scenic highway? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Have a demonstrable negative aesthetic effect? ❑ ❑ ❑ c) Create light or glare? ❑ ❑ ❑ 13.a-c)NO IMPACT. The project site is not located near a scenic thoroughfare as defined in the General Plan. Since the project entails development of multi-family residences which will be compatible with existing development,there should not be a negative aesthetic impact. Development within the project site will create additional light;however,this will be typical for multi-family residential development which should not be an impact. Therefore,there should be no impacts to aesthetics as a result of the project. 14. CULTURAL RESOURCES Would the proposal: a) Disturb paleontological resources? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Disturb archaeological resources? ❑ ® ❑ ❑ c) Affect historical resources? ❑ ® ❑ ❑ 10 �vAlr' Potentially Significant Potentially Unless Less Than No Significant Mitigation Significant Impact Impact Incorporated Impact d) Have the potential to cause a physical change which would affect unique ethnic cultural values? ❑ ® ❑ ❑ e) Restrict existing religious or sacred uses within the potential impact area? ❑ ® ❑ ❑ 14.a)NO IMPACT. The subject site is located in an urbanized area of the City. Records of the Department of Planning&Building were examined to determine if any paleontological resources have been recorded for the site and none were identified. Therefore,there should be no impacts to paleontological resources as a result of this project. 14.b-e)LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT. The subject site is located within Section 14 of the City of Palm Springs. Historically, this section has been the home of several generations of members of the Ague Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. Specifically, a cultural resource, the Round House, was located approximately 150 feet to the east of the subject property. According to the submitted Archeological Report,there is the potential for artifacts to be discovered during construction. The report suggests that an Archeologist be present at all times to mitigate the impact of construction on cultural and archeological resources. Therefore,there should be no significant impacts to archeological,historical,or cultural resources on this site. Mitigation:On-site monitoring during construction by a qualified archaeologist in close consultation with the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. 15. RECREATION Would the proposal: a) Increase the demand for neighborhood or regional parks or other recreational facilities? ❑ ❑ ❑ b) Affect existing recreational opportunities? ❑ ❑ ❑ 15.a-b)NO IMPACT. Since the project only entails construction of 24 multi-family residences,there should not bean impact on existing recreational facilities. Therefore,there should not be an impact to recreation as a result of this project. 16. PUBLIC CONTROVERSY a) Is the proposed project or action environmentally controversial in nature or can it reasonably be expected to become controversial upon disclosure to the public? ❑ ❑ ❑ 19 16.a). NO IMPACT. The project only entails the subdivision of 2 acres into 24 residential lots. The project will meet both the General Plan designation and the Zoning Ordinance upon approval of the Tentative Tract Map. In thejudgment of the Department of Planning&Building, the application is not known to be environmentally controversial,nor is it reasonable expected to become controversial upon disclosure to the public.

Page 2 of 3 Resolution TTM 29934 July 05, 2001 incorporation of those conditions attached in Exhibit A: a. The proposed map is consistent with the applicable general and specific plans. The subject property is designated as H43/30 (High Density) allowing 43 hotel or 30 residential units per acre and is zoned R-4. The application entails subdividing 2 acres into 24 condominium lots. The project complies with the General Plan and will be a beneficial improvement within the neighborhood. b. The design or improvements of the proposed subdivision are consistent with the General Plan. The improvements associated with the proposed subdivision include 24 condominiums, sidewalks, and landscaping. The proposed condominium project provides off-street parking, sufficient amenities, and have been designed to be compatible with surrounding developments. All of the proposed improvements are consistent with the General Plan. c. The site is physically suitable for the type of development contemplated by the proposed subdivision. The project will comply with all R-4 property development standards. The surrounding neighborhood consists of existing apartments and condominiums, as well as a church. Thus, the project is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. d. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development contemplated by the proposed subdivision. The project will be compatible with existing land use designations in the surrounding neighborhood based on the density. The proposed 24 unit development is consistent with the General Plan designation of 30 residential units per acre. In this case, the units would consist of two-story buildings that have been designed to respect the existing buildings in the neighborhood. The neighborhood also consists of some existing two-story buildings to the south of the subject property. Thus, the project should be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. e. The site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways properly designed and improved to carry the type and quantity of traffic to be generated by the proposed use. Conditions of this project will require dedication of right-of-way along Arenas Road that the street can be developed to its ultimate right-of-way as required by the General Plan such that the roadway will not be negatively impacted by trips generated from this project. f. The conditions to be imposed and shown on the approved site plan are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare, including any minor modifications of the zone's property development standards. ao� Z Page 3 of 3 Resolution TTM 29934 July 05, 2001 All proposed conditions of approval are necessary to ensure public health and safety including, but not limited to, the requirements for curb, gutter, and sidewalks. Additionally, the project design features abundant landscaping, large common areas, covered parking, and provide adequate off-street parking. g. A nexus and rough proportionality have been established for requirement of dedication of the additional right-of-way to the City and the off-site improvements as related to the tentative tract map. The off-site improvements, which are required by the Zoning Ordinance, are related to the project since the property owners must use Arenas Road to access the site. Currently,the subject property is vacant and therefore little or no usage of the roads, sidewalks, and utilities is due to the subject property at this time. However, the future property owners will benefit from any improvements made to Arenas Road such as dedication of easements, sidewalks, and future widening. The required dedication of right-of-way and improvements will provide safety benefits to the property owners and will aesthetically enhance the neighborhood. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that, based on the foregoing, the City Council hereby orders the filing of a Negative Declaration, and approves Tentative Tract Map 29934 and approves Case No. 3.2014 subject to those conditions set forth in the attached Exhibit A, which are to be satisfied prior to issuance of building permits for the project, unless otherwise specified.
