CANYON DRIVE, SOUTH OF WHITEWATER RIVER AND

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS FINDS AND
DETERMINES:
A. Freehold Capital Management, LLC, ("Applicant') filed an application with the
City pursuant to Section 9.63.110(b) of the Municipal Code, for a one-year extension of
time for the Avalon Tentative Tract Map 31848.
B. On March 9, 2016, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of
the extension of time request to the City Council, finding that the applicant had
demonstrated good cause for the extension.
C. On April 20, 2016, a public hearing on the application for the extension of time
was held by the City Council in accordance with applicable law.
D. On May 5, 2004, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the City
Council adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project ("MND"). The
preparation of further environmental documentation is not necessary because none of
the circumstances triggering further environmental review have occurred since the
adoption of the MND: (i) there are no substantial changes in the project requiring major
revisions of the MND due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or
a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (ii) there
are no substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is
being undertaken which will require major revisions of the MND due to the involvement
of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified effects; and (iii) there is no new information of substantial
importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of
reasonable diligence at the time the MND was adopted showing that: (a) the project will
have one or more significant effects not discussed in the MND; (b) significant effects
previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the MND; (c)
mitigation measures previously found not feasible would in fact be feasible, and would

substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the mitigation
measures have not been adopted; or (d) mitigation measures considerably different
from those analyzed in the MND would substantially reduce one or more significant
effects on the environment, but the mitigation measures have not been adopted.
Accordingly, no further environmental review is required. (Public Resources Code §
21166; Cal. Code Regulations, Title 14, § 15162.)
E. Pursuant to Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the City Council has
considered the effect of the proposed project on the housing needs of the region, and
has balanced these needs against the public service needs of residents and available
fiscal and environmental resources.
F. The City Council has carefully reviewed and considered all of the evidence
presented in connection with the hearing on the project, including but not limited to the
staff report and all written and oral testimony presented.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE:
SECTION 1: The above findings are all true and correct.
