banding such parade; the route and spacing of all units
of such parade; the maximum length thereof; the maximum

ducted in conformance with the purposes, objectives and

police department added costs of policing, crowd control
and traffic and parking control , placement and removal of
barricades and signs for parade routes and parking control,
and for clean-up of streets and sidewalks at the conclu-
sion of the parade. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless
it is otherwise directed by the city council, the city
I manager shall not require any such parade fee in connec-
tion with parades staged with the co-sponsorship of the
city, such as the annual mounted police parade and the
annual desert circus parade.

city manager shall require as a condition to issuance of a
parade permit that the organization or party staging or
sponsoring the parade file evidence: Of insurance (or self-
insurance) coverage for public liability and property damage
which might result from the conduct of the parade. Such
coverage shall be in an amount reasonably found by the city
manager (in consultation with the ci.ty' s risk manager and

parade activity contemplated. The city manager further shall
have the discretion to require that the city be named as an
additional insured in such coverage.

rade permit applications) of the Palm Springs Municipal Code is
hereby amended, to read as follows :

tained thereon, and unless such application is accompanied
by payment of any application processing fee as may have

SECTION 3. Section 11.24. 090 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code
is hereby amended to read as follows :
11. 24 .090 Appeals--Resubmittals--Late applications. (a)

respect to denial or issuance of any permit, conditions
attached thereto, or any other administrative action taken
pursuant to the terms of this chapter, may appeal to the city
council by filing a written notice of appeal with the city
clerk specifying the grounds of appeal. The city clerk shall
thereupon fix an early time and place of hearing on such ap-
peal. Notice thereof shall be given the appellant and other
persons who in the city clerk' s opinion appear to be interest-
ed persons of record, of the time and place of hearing, by

in whole or in part, of the date , hour or route of travel,
the applicant may submit a new request proposing alternate
dates, hours or routes of travel. I
(c) . The council may also directly consider any appli-
cation for permit to conduct a parade which is not filed

AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PALM
SPRINGS , CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION
3.24 . 030 OF THE PALM SPRINGS MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATING TO THE TRANSIENT OCCUPANCY TAX
RATE.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS , CALIFORNIA, DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS :
SECTION 1. Section 3 .24 . 030 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code
is hereby amended to read as follows :
3. 24. 030 Tax imposed. For the privilege of
occupancy in any hotel, each transient is subject to,
and shall pay a tax in the amount of seven percent of
the rent charged by the operator. Insofar as the tran-
sient is concerned, said tax constitutes a debt owed
by the transient to the city which is extinguished
only by payment to the operator or to the city.
SECTION 2 . URGENCY. This ordinance shall take effect as an
urgency measure immediately upon its adoption. It is hereby de-
clared that it is necessary to the public peace, health, safety
and welfare that this ordinance be adopted as an urgency measure.
The facts constituting the urgency are: The operations of the
I municipal government for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 1978
must be funded by a budget currently in the process of being
adopted. At the June 6 , 1978 California Primary election, a
Constitutional amendment was adopted by the electorate which
substantially and seriously affects and modifies the methods by
which a city may derive revenues to meet the necessary costs of
municipal government in the protection and enhancement of the
public peace, health, safety and welfare. It is accordingly
deemed essential that the tax increases enacted by this ordinance
take effect immediately so as to minimize the harm which might
otherwise occur to the public interest due to inadequate funding
of the municipal government in the fiscal year commencing July 1,
1978.
SECTION 3 . PUBLICATION . The City Clerk shall certify to the
passage of this Ordinance and cause the same to be published once,
within fifteen (15) days after passage , in THE DESERT SUN, a

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS,
CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING AS AN URGENCY MEASURE,
CERTAIN REGULATIONS PROHIBITING DEVELOPMENT
OF NEW RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS WHICH MAY BE IN
CONFLICT WITH A CONTEMPLATED ZONING PROPOSAL
AND DEVELOPMENT CONTROL PROPOSAL, SAID REGU-

or process any application for an environmental assessment, division
of land, change of zone or land use permit or for a building permit or
other approval or entitlement, for or related to development of any new
residential project.
SECTION 2. Section 1 of this Ordinance shall not apply to:
a. The construction of a single family home on an existing
lot of record or in a recorded subdivision;
1 b. Additions to or modifications of existing buildings;
C. Processing of development plans, subdivision or parcel maps
for which project approval by the Planning Commission was
received prior to the effective date of this Ordinance;
d. Projects implementing in whole or in part a comprehensive -1

the City Council prior to the effective date of this Ordinance;

the State of California, for the immediate preservation and protection
of the public safety, health and welfare, and shall take effect immediately
upon its adoption and passage by at least a four-fifths vote of the City
Council . The declaration of the facts constituting the urgency is as
follows: Because of the nature and magnitude of development which has
occurred in the City since the general re-evaluation and revision of
the General Plan in 1973, and because of an engineer's report gust received
indicating that the City's sewage disposal plant is nearing operating at
the limit of capacity, the public interest now requires another systematic
review and comprehensive dnaylsis of said General Plan as well as the
ordinances designed to implement that plan. It is contemplated that from

such studies, which are currently being conducted by the Planning Agency,
there will emerge a new zoning proposal and development control proposal
for the City, and during the interim period while this can be accomplished,
it is essential that the controls imposed by this Ordinance be maintained,
so that uses which would otherwise be established and developed during the
interim period will not thereafter be in conflict with the contemplated
zoning proposal and development control proposal as; aforesaid.
SECTION 4. EFFECTIVE PERIOD OF ORDINANCE. This Ordinance shall remain
in effect for the four-month period properly computed pursuant to Section
65858 of the Government Code of the State of California, unless sooner
