VISITOR CENTER LOCATED AT 2901 NORTH PALM CANYON DRIVE
FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROMOTING TOURISM
FROM: David H. Ready, Executive Director
BY: Community & Economic Development Department
SUMMARY
The Lease Agreement is for use of the City owned Visitor Center at 2901 North Palm
Canyon Drive by the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. The approval of Lease
Amendment No. 2 will allow the Tribe to use a portion of the facility for the purpose of
operating a visitor information desk to promote the cultural and economic enterprises
connected with the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. The Tribe operates this
service to provide information to tourists and local residents.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve Lease Amendment No. 2 between the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla
Indians and the City of Palm Springs for non-exclusive use of the City owned
Visitor Center at 2901 North Palm Canyon Drive for the purpose of promoting
tourism;
2. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all the necessary
documents.
BACKGROUND
The Tribe has leased the counter space from the City since 1999 for the purpose of
operating a visitor information desk at the City's Visitor Center. In November of 2003,
upon completion of the new Visitor Center located at 2901 North Palm Canyon Drive,
the Tribe relocated its staff to the current location. The information facility is used to
promote the Agua Caliente Cultural Museum, Indian Canyons, Tahquitz Canyon and
Spa Resort and Casino.
Item No. L . 1
City Council Staff Report
(October 7, 2015)—Page 2
(Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, Visitor Center Lease Agreement)
The Tribe desires to renew the Lease Agreement with the City, for use of a portion of
the Visitor Center. The Tribe has continued to pay the City rent based on the amount
established in the original agreement which expired on June 30, 2008. The prior lease
had a monthly rental rate $1,078.
Staff recommends entering a new three (3) year lease agreement with a rental rate of
$1,078 per month (adjusted annually by the Consumer Price Indexes Pacific Cities and
U.S. City Average Table) and an option to extend the lease term for a period of two (2)
years. The new lease will allow the Tribe to continue to operate in an efficient manner
promoting the cultural and economic enterprises that it offers to tourists and the local
community.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Lease Agreement would provide the City revenue of $1,078 per month to help
offset costs it currently bears in utilities and water as a result of operating the Visitor
Center.
