This Art Mural Application is subject to the regulations stated in Palm Springs Municipal
Code Chapter 5.81 ("Art Murals on Private Property"). Notice of the Public Arts
Commission consideration of the art mural was distributed to the owners of the
properties located within five hundred (500) feet of the project site. The Commission
reviewed this Art Mural Application on November 29, 2018 and voted 3 (in favor) -2
(opposed) -1 (abstained) to recommend approval to the City Council.
Palm Springs Municipal Code Section 5.81.050 ("Requirements") requires the property
owner to record a covenant stipulating that the art mural will be maintained at all times
in full compliance with Chapter 5.81 code requirements. The execution of this covenant
is required as a condition of approval of this request as stated in Exhibit A of the
attached Resolution.

in Section 5.81.060 ("Regulations"). Staff analyzed the proposal in accordance with
these requirements below: -
a. Any alteration to an approved mural shall require approval in accordance with the
procedures listed in Section 5.81.040.
The art mural is subject to the condition of approval stated in Exhibit A of the
attached Resolution (PLN 3), which requires adherence to this requirement.
b. No part of a mural shall exceed the height of the structure to which it is tiled,
painted, or affixed.

positioned approximately three (3) inches below the top of the 4.5-foot-high
screening wall in the back.
C. No part of a mural shall extend more than six (6) inches from the plane of the
wall upon which it is tiled, painted, or affixed.
