Marvin Roos, stated that old photos were used for design purposes; that contact was made with adjacent property owners; and recommended approval. There being no further appearances, the hearing was closed.

CS 5.0870, PD268 — GPA— EL MIRADOR RESORT Recommendation: That the Council certify the Initial Study and file the Negative Declaration and Environmental Assessment; approve a General Plan Amendment; and approve the El Mirador Resort and Mid-Valley Center preliminary planned development district, subject to conditions. Director of Planning & Building reviewed the staff report; and added that there were additional letters of support received by staff since the agenda packets were made available; that the project was supported by the Planning Commission; that one issue to resolve is the equestrian trail; that the plans have been well received by the Community; that there has been only one concern raised and that was regarding traffic; that the project is inclusive of vacation units; a hotel; business offices; a golf course and will add a needed resort designation to the City; that the market will dictate the building of the Phases; that any future decisions concerning the project will most likely be final with the Planning Commission unless appealed; and reviewed the site plans on display in the Chamber. Mayor declared the hearing open. Howard Lapham, stated that the project goes a long way to create a balanced economy in the City; that the land has laid dormant for 47 years; that the project is creative and will increase the image of the City in the high tech world; that the architectural team is known world over; that Mr. Noia should be complimented on pulling the project together and for getting all the land leases needed for the project; and recommended approval of the project. Ernest Noia, 429 E. Tahquitz, stated that his office does have over 100 letters of support for the project; that the adjacent landowners are in support; that the conditions are agreeable as submitted; that on Page 10, Option B is the choice of the developer; that it is clear as the project moves along the feasibility of what is needed is what will be developed; that it is important to get this opportunity for the Indian land owners and for the City; that the developer would like to work the full process through the City and not have to appeal to the Tribal Council; that the project will be known as the Mid Valley Center; that the equestrian trail issue will be addressed, but that the design group should not be hobbled with the public right of way at this point; and recommended approval. Council Minutes 07-05-01, Page 6 Martin Burke, stated that the developers are not against the equestrian or bicycle trails; that a solution had been found for the bicycles, but that the problem with the equestrian trails is public access; that allowing the access will violate security and manageability of the site; that if something can be worked out, it will be; that for the necessity of design, however, it is requested that the equestrian trail condition be eliminated; and recommended approval with the condition deleted. There being no further appearances, the hearing was closed. Councilmember Hodges questioned if the hotel was the only building that the height extension was being requested for. Director of Planning & Building stated that the hotel is the only extension, but that the business park is allowed at a height of 60 feet. Councilmember Hodges stated that while there are no questions regarding the equestrian trail, it is clear that there may be some problem; that it is not defined how the equestrian trail would work with the Cimarron Golf Course; that the solution would be to leave the equestrian trail out of the requirements and allow the developer to try to work something out; that the conditions questioned on Page 10 should not be a problem; that Option B is acceptable; that the project is exciting and realistic; that if the project materializes it will be good for the City and send a positive message to the residents and the entire State. Councilmember Jones concurred with Councilmember Hodges and added that many projects that come before the Council do not materialize; that the Council should assist the developer in every way and be careful not to put anything in the way of the project; and that it is hopeful that the project can get started. City Attorney stated that regarding option B the Council should be aware that it is difficult to enforce some of the language; that "reasonable" effort is somewhat a value consideration; that the equestrian trail is in the General Plan; that to delete the requirement a General Plan Amendment would be required; that if the project is approved deleting the trail, without the amendment, the project would be in conflict with the General Plan; that staff could prepare the amendment and bring it back for Council consideration. Mayor questioned if the amendment could be made at this time. City Attorney stated that the process of the General Plan is a broad overview of the City and its zones; that it is a long term view, while the zoning map is the current; that a General Plan Amendment would require public hearings before the Planning Commission and the City Council; and that if the intent is to eliminate the equestrian trail the proper procedures would need to be followed so that an inconsistency is not created. Councilmember Hodges questioned if the zoning could be changed to eliminate the requirement of the equestrian trail and the General Plan Amendment be considered at a subsequent meeting. City Attorney stated that the Council could proceed in that manner, but that it is not the desirable method. Council Minutes 07-05-01, Page 7 Director of Planning & Building stated that a resolution has been prepared to comply with Council request; that the trails could be considered in segments; and that the needs of the developer would be satisfied. Mayor stated that the deletion of Mesquite east should not be a problem; that in all likelihood the street will never be expanded; that when the bypass was designed, it was for high speed traffic; that there is concern that the zone does outline what is needed; and that the issue does need to be addressed; and that the issue of the distance between the project and its neighbors does need to be addressed. Director of Planning & Building stated that on the preliminary site plan the area for the hotel is in the center of the property. Mayor questioned the height regulations of the business park buildings. Director of Planning & Building stated that under the Conditional Use Permit the height allowed is 60 feet; that without the Conditional Use Permit the building height is limited to 35 feet. Mayor stated that with the offsets, the height should not be a factor and questioned if this is the same allowance for all Indian land. Director of Planning & Building stated that there are two locations that would be affected, this one and land located in Section 14. Mayor stated that in Section 14 there is adequate dimensions to allow the height; and questioned if the right-of-ways needed had been obtained; and added that on Page 10, 7A, B or C, the work reasonable is questionable; that further communication is needed with the developer regarding a right hand turn lane into the project; that as the development occurs, there will be an increase on adjacent property values; and that it would be to the benefit of the developer and the City to address the additional turn lane at this point. Director of Planning & Building stated that the issue would be addressed. Mayor stated that the plans are getting a conceptual nod; that the Community has shown its support of the project; and that a finding should be made indicating that the equestrian trail is not feasible. Director of Planning & Building stated that a General Plan Amendment would be prepared to start the formal process. Mr. Noia stated that when the information was relayed that the bypass was eliminated, it was assumed that the equestrian trail was eliminated also, but that the condition concerning the trail for a General Plan Amendment is acceptable. Councilmember Hodges stated that the resolution concerning the trail should have the work reasonably removed. Council Minutes 07-05-01, Page 8 Resolution 20102 as recommended (Neg Dec.); Resolution 20103 as revised (GPA); and Resolution 20104 as recommended (Appr Cs. 5.0870) were presented; after which, it was moved by Hodges, seconded by Jones, and unanimously carried, Oden and Reller-Spurgin absent, that R20102, 20103 and 20104 be adopted. COUNCIL COMMENTS/ANNOUNCEMENTS/INTERAGENCY REPORTS: Councilmembers reported on various civic and community organizational meetings and events which they attended, subsequent to the last regular meeting, and announced upcoming events of community interest. Mayor stated that the Council should consider funding the update of the General Plan; and questioned the process. Director of Planning & Building stated that typically the process of update is two years; that one-year is spent with Community involvement and the second year with the hearing process; that the General Plan does need to be updated. Mayor stated that there are many issues in the City, such as General Plan Update needs; that there is a referendum being circulated in the City regarding refinancing the Convention Center Bonds; that if the signatures do certify the measure will not make the November 2001 election; that the cost will be approximately $60,000; that should the referendum certify the Community's ability to refinance the bonds will be stopped; that the abeyance may place the City in economic jeopardy regarding the parking structure; that there are statements being made concerning the referendum that may not be true; that no one on the City Council would intentionally endanger the future of the City, but there does need to be a reconsideration of what is being asked to be signed and that there is also a Charter Amendment being circulated. LEGISLATIVE ACTION: 22. 2150 NORTH PALM CANYON — DESERT MOON Recommendation: That the Council approve an agreement with Jose E. Guerrero, Barton Charles Adrian and Deborah Jo Adrian, regarding a performance schedule identifying time frames for property improvements, for property located at 2150 North Palm Canyon. A-----. City Manager withdrew the matter. 23. ORDINANCE FOR SECOND READING & ADOPTION (Intro 6-6-01) Ord ----- re PIERS amendment for Police Safety employees. City Manager withdrew the matter. Council Minutes 07-05-01, Page 9 24. VALLEY WIDE ANIMAL CAMPUS Recommendation: That the Council discuss the final report from consultant John Heiss, on funding options for the proposed Valley-wide Animal Campus, City Manager stated that this item is for information only; that Councilmember Jones will be representing the City at the next meeting at CVAG concerning this issue; that the financial numbers from CVAG were agreeable; that the issue is whether the City requires a kill versus non-kill facility; what service level is to be maintained; the distance to the facility; and that the issue is one of policy. Councilmember Jones stated that the venture would only be financially feasible if the City closed its own facility; that direction is needed if the issue of whether the City will participate or not comes up at the meeting; that one concern is that the City does have a no-kill policy; that there is a high number of animals in the City that are returned to their owners; and that the new facility may not have standards as high as the City currently does. Mayor questioned how many shelters are in the Valley. Councilmember Jones stated there are four, Cathedral City, Desert Hot Springs, Indio and Palm Springs. Mayor questioned who handles animal control for the other valley cities. Police Chief stated that the other Cities do contract with private agencies that contract with the County. Mayor questioned if anyone else in the Valley has a no-kill policy. Councilmember Hodges stated that none in the Valley have no-kill policies; that the upcoming meeting with CVAG is to accept the report to move it further to Committee; that there should be no problem with acceptance of the report, but there may be concerns with endorsing the concept of one valley-wide shelter; that there are answers that would need to be given before that type of decision is made; that it may be that the facility CVAG is proposing would change to a no-kill facility; that the distance our residents would have to travel is of concern; that there are other issues that would need full discussion before a decision is made. Councilmember Jones stated that it would be best to express to CVAG that Palm Springs may not be participating in order to allow the numbers to indicate that factor. Mayor questioned what is driving the issue. Councilmember Jones stated that it is not clear; that the issue was originally brought forward by La Quinta or possibly another City that does not have a facility. Council Minutes 07-05-01, Page 10 Councilmember Hodges stated that some Cities in the Valley do not have the high standards that Palm Springs has; that the quality, concern and treatment of animals is different, and that for those Cities that are having problems a regional approach may be better. Director of Finance stated that the financial aspects of the City's shelter had been reviewed; that preliminary projects would be to rehabilitate the facility approximately $400,000; and that a new 12,000 square foot facility would be approximately $1.8 million. City Manager stated that another option would be to lease a facility to use as the shelter. Councilmember Jones questioned the need for a 12, 000 square foot facility. Police Chief stated that a larger facility would allow Palm Springs the option of contracting its services to other Cities. Council received report. 25. BOUNDARY REDISTRICTING Recommendation: That the Council discuss the possible redistricting of boundaries for representation of County Supervisor. City Manager stated that there will be a hearing at the County on July 10; and that direction to staff is needed. Director of Planning & Building stated that the boundary line that is proposed does separate the City into two sections; that the dividing line would be north of Via Escuela. Denys Acuri, County Supervisor Representative, stated that the Fourth District grew faster than the Third; that each district will have approximately 309,077 residents; that the boundary lines still need minor adjustment; that part of the reason for the dip in Palm Springs is to shift the population; that on the positive side, Palm Springs will have two supervisors; that Supervisor Wilson will remain the Supervisor of the major part of Palm Springs and that the support given to Palm Springs would remain. Mayor stated that Supervisor Wilson has shown the City support; that there may be a problem with a new Supervisor; that the support previously given to Palm Springs may not be there; that the northern part of Palm Springs will be in District 5; that the District also includes the City of Riverside; that historically that area has always had a block vote of the Supervisors; and questioned how many Palm Springs residents would move to District 5. Mr. Acuri, stated that approximately 9,000 residents would be moved across the line; that the total moved was 20,000; that the drawing of boundaries is complex in that large chunks of land are not highly populated but must be included in one's District. Council Minutes 07-05-01, Page 11 Mayor clarified that the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians reservation would be split into two Districts of representation; that if the line in Palm Springs went to Avenida Caballeros the reservation would remain whole in representation. Mr. Acuri, stated that each District needs 309,000 residents; that if the line is shifted in Palm Springs that would mean that some other area must be divided. Councilmember Hodges stated that the City should not be divided and should remain whole in representation; and that the entire Valley should be in one district. Councilmember Jones stated that as far as Supervisory representation there should be no problem in a division of the City. Mayor concurred. No Council direction or action given. 26. ADDITIONAL LEGISLATIVE ITEMS: None ADDED STARTERS: None REPORTS & REQUESTS: CITY COUNCIL reports or requests a) Councilmember Hodges stated that no more wind turbines should be approved; and that the newest ones are painted white and are highly visible and recommended that the turbines be painted tan or beige. PUBLIC reports or requests STAFF reports or requests ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, Mayor declared the meeting adjourned. PATRICIA A. SANDERS City Clerk CITY OF PALM SPRINGS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 9, 2001 A Special Meeting of the City Council of the City of Palm Springs, California, was called to order by Mayor Kleindienst, in the Large Conference Room, 3200 Tahquitz Canyon Way, on Monday, July 9, 2001, at 9:00 a.m. ROLL CALL: Present: Councilmembers Jones, Oden, and Mayor Kleindienst Absent: Councilmembers Hodges and Reller-Spurgin REPORT OF POSTING OF AGENDA: City Clerk reported that the agenda was posted in accordance with Brown Act Provisions concerning Special Call with 24-hour notice. PUBLIC COMMENTS ON MATTERS LISTED ON AGENDA: None LEGISLATIVE ACTION: A. BOUNDARY REDISTRICTING Recommendation: That the Council discuss the possible redistricting of boundaries for representation of County Supervisor. Mayor questioned why the City of Palm Springs boundary lines were being proposed to split the City in less than a 50/50 split. Deyns Acrui, Riverside County Supervisor Representative, stated that the lines are not yet final; but that the lines are based on even distribution of population in the County; that the County consists of a large geographical area; that some areas are not densely populated; that a balance of unincorporated and incorporated areas needs to be managed; and that if one district gets a larger amount of unincorporated area it becomes difficult on the Supervisor. City Manager distributed a letter from the City of Desert Hot Springs, copy on file in Office of the City Clerk. Mr. Acuri stated that there have been several requests from Cities to move into a different district than what was proposed; that many people are resistive to change; that the new proposed boundaries make sense; that the census is what is dictating the need to shift the boundaries; that the line within District needs to be shifted; that the letter from Desert Hot Springs refers to being shifted to District 5 and wanting to be placed in District 4; that it is the desire to keep a City whole in one district; that the City of Palm Springs does necessitate a split; that the split follows a geographical line; that the area for the most part was in District 3; that the same services will be provided to the area; that the only difference to Palm Springs is that it will now have two Supervisors instead of one; that the Supervisors care about the districts and will continue to represent each district well. Motion to support the boundaries as recommended by the County was presented by Councilmember Oden and failed due to a lack of second. Council Minutes 07-09-01, Page Z Councilmember Jones stated that if the City of Palm Springs is to be divided anyway, it makes sense to allow the City of Desert Hot Springs to move to District 4 and the City of Palm Springs be more evenly divided so that the representation of people would be balanced; that with an even division of the City, representation would be better due to more people; that if the line is drawn through the City of Palm Springs separating out only 9,000, the voice of the people being represented is not as strong, so that the attention paid to the area is lowered. Councilmember Oden stated that with the continuation of Supervisor Roy Wilson's support the City would continue to have good representation. Mr. Acuri stated that even though Desert Hot Springs was in the 3rd District, if one asked who the City's Supervisor was the answer would be Roy Wilson. Councilmember Oden stated that the new Supervisor would likewise learn to care about desert issues. Councilmember Jones stated that Desert Hot Springs should be moved to the 4`h District and the boundary line in Palm Springs be moved to divide the City in more equal portions allowing a greater percentage for representation for each district. Councilmember Oden questioned why the percentage would make that much of a difference in representation. Mayor stated that there is a greater representation when the population is greater; that previously the City of Riverside had three supervisors representing the City due to the boundaries; that when an issue came to vote, there was a voting block of three; that the City of Palm Springs has been fortunate to have Mr. Wilson as its supervisor; that he does actively pursue efforts on behalf of the desert; that with the separation the City will have two supervisors; that the proposal is to divide the City, with only 9,000 being in District 5 and that area could be disenfranchised. Councilmember Oden questioned where the boundary is being suggested. Mayor stated that Desert Hot Springs' population would move into District 4 representation; that the 17,000 residents would be offset by residents of Palm Springs moving into District 5; that the City of Palm Springs then would be somewhat equally divided with approximately 25,000 in District 5 and 20,000 in District 4. Councilmember Oden stated that the concern for representation of Desert Hot Springs is somewhat surprising; and that with either proposal the City of Palm Spring ends up with two supervisors. Mayor stated that the intention is to get the City bifurcated for equal representation of the whole City. Council Minutes 07-09-01, Page 3 Mr. Acuri stated that the numbers would have to be reviewed; that the intent is not to increase representation to District 5 and marginalize District 4. Motion that the boundaries of Supervisory District 4 be extended to include the City of Desert Hot Springs and that the boundary of Supervisory Diistrict 4 continue in a southerly line into the City of Palm Springs to balance an even division of the City of Palm Springs population into Supervisory District 4 and 5 was presented; after which, it was moved by Jones, seconded by Kleindienst and carried by the following vote that the motion be adopted. AYES: Jones and Kleindienst NO: Oden ABSENT: Hodges and Reller-Spurgin ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, Mayor declared the meeting adjourned. PATRICIA A. SANDERS City Clerk
