OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ]?AIM SPRINGS,
CALIFORNIA, OBJECTING TO THE PROGR H FOR ALLOT-
TING AGUA CALIENTE INDIAN TRIBAL RESERVES PUR-
SUANT TO BUREAU ORDER 569, SIGNED ON THE 19TH
DAY OF JANUARY, 1959, BY ROGER ERN'ST, ASSISTANT
SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR, AND PUBLISHED IN
VOLUME 24, NUMBER 167 OF THE FEDERAL REGISTRY ,
WHEREAS, the Department of the Interior of the United States of America
has promulgated a series of rules for the allotment of tribal lands,
including tribal reserves of the Agua Caliente Band of Mission Indians,
said rules being set forth in Bureau Order 569 ]'aereinabove referred to;
and
WHEREAS, it is the feeling of the City Council of the City of Palm Springs
that Bureau Order 569 does not comport with the welfare of the Indian
Tribe nor does it recognize or attempt to maintain the stability of the
economy with which the Indians are associated,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Palm •
Springs, California, does hereby respectfully object to the entire Bureau
Order. 569, specifically for the reasons set forth in the Resolution of
the Tribal Council and Tribal Members dated January 29, 1959, and here-
tofore submitted to the Bureau of Indian Affairs'. .
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that it has been the constant opinion of the City
of Palm Springs that the equalization process should proceed in accordance
with the plan devised and set forth in the Bill known as H.R. 2564, in-
troduced into the House of Representatives by t°ae Honorable D. S. Saund
on January 15, 1959. The City Council of the City of Palm Springs once
again affirms its position that the matter of equalization of the Indian
allotments should be so handled as to maintain and exempt from the equal-
ization process the Indian Tribal Lands set forth in paragraph 3(c) of
H.R. 2564.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that it is the considered opinion of the City
Council of this City that to cup up the Tribal 2eserve8 and allot them
in an equalization process will destroy the full value of the Tribal
Reserves. Not only will the Indian tribe receive far less benefit
from the cutting up of the reserves, but the City as a whole will also
lose by having the canyon areas desecrated, resulting in a loss to the
City of some of its greatest scenic attractions. A cursory review of
Bureau Order 569, together with a knowledge of the background and the
problem of equalization, will show that the Bursau' s remedy is worse
T.-tan the affliction.

WHEREAS, it has been the policy of the City Council that all new ,

stalled and connected with the existing City sewer system or, in the
alternative, to install the sewer system and cap it off, with a pur-
chaser of a lot within the subdivision, upon building, being required
to installa cesspool with the idea in mind that ultimately a City
sewer lateral would serve the subdivision and the capped sewers would
be put into use; and
WHEREAS; thereare sections of the City which, because of terrain, it is
almost impossible without a tremendous expense to install sewer lines at •
the time of subdivision; and
WHEREAS, the Chief Building Inspector has developed a plat now on file in
fits office delineating those sections of the City wherein no installation
or sewers 'should be required at the time of subdivision; and '
WHEREAS, the Uniform Plumbing Code now requires :Lot purchasers in new
subdivisions, when constructing a house thereon;, to install a cesspool
and septic tank except where it is established that a public sewer system
wi11 be available in less than two (2) years, and soil and ground water
conditions are favorable to cesspool disposal alone; and
WHEREAS, it is desirable to establish a policy to guide the Planning '
Commission and Building Inspector as to the requirement of installation
of sewer lines in any new subdivisions, and to provide a guide for
construction of houses by purchasers of lots within the subdivision
when sewer lines have not been required,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that -the City Council of the City of Palm
Springs, California, does hereby direct thePlanning Commission that sub-
divisions falling West and South of lines set forth on a plat developed
by the Chief Building Inspector, and adopted by .reference herein, shall
not be required to have sewer lines installed at the time of the sub-
division.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does direct the Chief Building
Inspector that in all subdivisions wherein the Planning Commission and the

of a lot within the subdivision at the time of .residential construction shall
install both a cesspool and septic tank in accordance with the standards
provided by the 1952 Uniform Plumbing Code adopted by the City pursuant to
Ordinance No. 281;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this instruction to the Building Inspector is
based upon the express finding that the present over-all City sewer program
is of long range and it cannot be said generally that there will be a public
sewer system available to all new subdivisions within the City within a
two (2) year period, nor can it be said that ground water conditions permit

THE AUTHORITY REQUIRED FOR TRUE HOME RULE
' WHEREAS, 'heretofore the Appellate Courts of the State of California

a) City building codes do not apply to school districts;

Atherton v. Superior Court, 159 Cal. App. 2d, 417; and

master planning or zoning for future growth; and
a WHEREAS, these decisions have effectively negated the home rule concept

could be applied to many local agencies and not just school districts,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Palm
Springs, California, does respectfully request Senator Nelson S. Dilworth

legislation known as "AB 156.11

shall comply with applicable building and zoning ordinances of the County

Districts are excepted from local building regulations on the assumption
that they are now thoroughly supervised by the Division of Architecture
but are required to comply with local zoning ordinances if such ordinances
make provision for the location of public schools.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that contentions of local Agencies, such as school
districts, that they are the best judges as to their needs and the location
of their facilities is an argument well calculated to produce complete
0
chaos. It is clear that one local agency, such as the City or County,
should control the function of zoning and master planning. Should all •

REQUESTED BY RAMON RISE ENTERPRISES, PURSUANT TO
PLANNING COMMISSION CASE NO. 5.191
WHEREAS, heretofore Ramon Rise Enterprises, Inc. , made application to
the Planning Commission for a change of zone from R-la and R-2 to R-3
•
•
for Lots 1 through 10 and 13 through 22, Ramon Rise Estates, Section 24,
Township 4 South, Range 4 East, San Bernardino Base & Meridian; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission heard said application, Planning
Commission Case No. 5.191, and thereupon recommended to the City
Council, Planning Commission Resolution No. 703, that the application
for change of zone as requested by granted; and
' WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the proceedings before the
Planning Commission including protests of property owners within
four hundred feet of the area to be rezoned; and
WHEREAS, it is the feeling of the City Council that the "change in
character" reason of the Planning Commission is not sufficient to
subject a presently existing and expanding R-1 Zone District to further
R-3 Zone District intrusion,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
• Palm Springs, having held its hearing and heard proponents and opponents,
does hereby deny the application hereinabove referred to for the
reasons that:
1. The application for change of zone to R-3 is in conflict
with the master plan now being developed by Simon Eisner
and Associates. Although the master plan has not been-
adopted, nonetheless it indicates that there should be at
lease a limited R-2 Zone District within the area requested
for R-3 zoning.
2. The presently existing R-1 development South of Ramon Road and
just South of the area requested for change of zone should not
be subject to further intrusion of R-2 zoning. The character
' of the area should be retained as R-la and R-2, with Ramon Road
being the buffer between R-2 zoning and presently existing R-3
zoning North of Ramon Road.
3. Applicant has at this time a subdivision map before the
Planning Commission. The subdivision map has not received
final approval of the Planning Commission, and it would be
premature for the City Council to grant heavy density
residential zoning prior to reviewing the recommendations
of the Planning Commission as to the subdivision, size of
lots, width of 'streets, and other matters directly affecting
the granting of R-3 zoning.

WHEREAS, heretofore annexation proceedings have been initiated
by the City Council in accordance with the "Uninhabited

Government Code of this State, and concerning a portion of
Section 29 and all of Section 20, T4S, R5E, SBB&M; and
WHEREAS, the said Section 20 is comprised entirely of Indian
lands , the title of which is held by the Federal Government
in Tribal and Allotted status except for twenty (20) acres
in the Southwest quarter of the Southwest quarter of the section;
and
WHEREAS, the referred to Indian lands, comprising 620 acres,
are not assessed as per the last equalized assessment roll
of the County of Riverside, State of California, assessment and
collection agent for the City; and
r
WHEREAS, appraisers for the Bureau of Indian Affairs of the
Department of the Interior of the United States of America have •
appraised the tribal lands in the said section, i .e. , 340 acres
at $750,000, or an average Tribal acre value of $2,200. and
the said Bureau has appraised the allotted lands, 280 acres,
at %533,750, or an average acre value of $1 ,900. ; and
WHEREAS, the average value of acreage, both tribal and allotted
in said Section 20, would be $2,050. per acre; and
WHEREAS, the average value of $2,050.00 per acre established by '
the said Bureau appraisal is to be compared with the assessed
value of the fee-patented twenty-acre parcel in the Southeast
quarter of the said Section 20, assessed on the last equalized
assessment roll as to land value, $800 or an average assessed
acreage value of $40 per acre; and
WHEREAS, the ratio between Bureau appraised values in Section 20
and County assessed values is 51 to 1; and
WHEREAS, the lands in the said Section 29 have a County •
assessed value of $98,000 as per the last equalized assessment
roll ; and increasing the County assessed values for Section 29 by a ratio
of 51 to 1, to compare the lands with the Bureau appraised value
in Section 20, the lands in Section 29 become worth $4,998 .000.00 •
for the purpose of evaluating the protest; and
WHEREAS, Bureau appraisal values of Indian lands, both allotted
and tribal, total $1,283,750, plus the twenty-acre fee patented
parcel set forth on the last equalized assessment roll, both
land and improvement $4,760.00, or a total protest of Indian and
non-Indian lands of $1,288,510.00, compared with non-protesting
lands worth $4;998,006.00;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Palm ,
Springs does expressly find, in accordance with the above WHEREAS
clauses, that the non-protesting lands are worth approximately
four times the protesting lands, utilizing a ratio between Bureau
appraisals and County assessments ;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that by a letter dated June 15, 1959,
addressed to the City Attorney, the Office of the County Assessor
has indicated that, in its opinion, the value of Section 29
is worth at least twice that of Section 20. and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the improvements in Section 29,
consisting of 120 subdivided lots together with an 18-hole •
golf course of 148 acres, clearly indicate a Section 29 value
far in excess of the raw lands o f Section 2,0, therefore the
City Council, for the reasons herein expressed, does overrule
the protests heretofore filed as insufficient to withhold the •
continuance of proceedings for the annexation of the heretofore
referred to Section 20 and a- portion of Section 29, T4S, RSE,

WHEREAS, ,theI City, Council does feel that establishment of such
heavy uses adjacent to' the' resort community of the City of Palm
Springs will produce an immediate and harmful effect upon the
resort economy of the City; and
' WHEREAS, the City Council does find that the establishment of such
uses in the locations applied for will substantially create a
change in the character of the development of the North portion of
the City of Palm Springs, together with a most detrimental effect
on the beautiful golf course and expensive homes located generally
to the South of the areas under application; and
WHEREAS, it is the further finding of the City Council that good
planning practice designates that these nuisance uses should not
be placed upwind from a high valued resort community for the reason
• that the uses are not only noxious and detrimental to the health -
and safety of City residents and residents of the immediate sur-
rounding areas,' but the establishment of such uses would reduce the
assessed value of lands affected by' the uses ; and
•
' WHEREAS, , it is the further finding of the City Council that the
applications for the heavy uses in said Sections 31 and 36, for
a gravel pit, cement and asphalt batching plant, does not represent
a harmonious relationship of land uses in the County and in the City,
and establishment of the uses requested will produce a conflicting
relationship of land uses which will not be alleviated by any known
series of controls imposed upon applicants,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that. the City Council of the City of
' Palm Springs, California, 'doe§ respectfully request and urge that
the Honorable County Board of Supervisors of Riverside County,
