Specific Plan None Design Guidelines Downtown Urban Design Plan (Adopted in 2005 Airport Overlay None Indian Land None Moodngs 2013 Applicant met with Downtown Group and Uptown Grou 6.22.06 1 Demolition of structures on the property Background: The original project which was approved in 2006 includes the development of up to 118 condominium units and approximately 25,000 square feet of retail commercial space on the 4.1-acre vacant site. The original project had retail space on the groundtfirst floor fronting on Palm Canyon, with residential units occurring above, on three stories. Residential buildings were proposed on Alejo Road and Indian Canyon, and on the interior of the project site. The buildings were designed with three and four stories, within a range of 35' to 50'6' in height. A total of eleven (11) live/work units were to be located at the center of the site. These units would have office/gallery space on the City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs, LLC;6.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 3 of 12 ground floor, and residential units above, and had pedestrian walkway through the site. In 2011, the City Council approved a proposed amendment changing the previously approved mixed-use PDD from residential and commercial to a 175-room boutique hotel and approximately 30,000 square feet retail commercial development. Proposed Amendment.- Section 94.03.00(G) allows modifications to Development Plans of previously approved Planned Development District projects. According to the Code, minor architectural or site changes that do not affect the intent of the PD can be approved. Amended Planned Development District 324 established design guidelines and development standards for a mixed-use project consisting of a 175-room hotel, commercial retail and parking structure within the site with variations to certain zoning code development standards. This proposed amendment involves the re-configuration of the site plan, reduced number of hotel rooms and architectural design of the project. This phase of the amendment process is a preliminary PDD submittal consisting of a four-story building; the upper two stories will comprise mainly hotel guest rooms and suites. The new layout calls for the 150 rooms to be distributed across the lot with private garden spaces around each room. The proposed amendment will maintain the same mixed-use character of the original project with a boutique hotel, commercial retail, bar and restaurant uses. The ground level will feature approximately 32,705 square feet of commercial retail spaces, a restaurant and a bar.

One notable change on the new site plans involves the revised walkway/private vehicle entry way that connects Palm Canyon and Indian Canyon Drives. Unlike the original layout, the proposed vehicular entry and exit points are now only along Palm Canyon Drive. The original architectural design with a "desert contemporary" vernacular remains the same. Basic building massing and heights have been reduced but remain consistent and within the guidelines of the original project. The hotel buildings will be constructed over the two-story parking structure to the south and other parking spaces that are spread across the site. The parking spaces can be accessed from Palm Canyon Drive, Indian Canyon Drive and Alejo Road. The building heights are proposed at a maximum of 51 feet to the top of the parapet in the interior of the site. General Plan and Zoning: The General Plan designation of the site is CBD or Central Business District; the Zoning designation is PDD-324; the underlying zone is CBD. The approved land use is consistent with the provisions of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance for that designation. The CBD designation allows resort hotels including accessory commercial uses, antique shops, art galleries, apparel stores, gifts and other retail uses located on the ground floor. Downtown Urban Design Guidelines: Staff has reviewed the proposal and conducted a comparison of the proposed amendment with the Downtown Urban Design Guidelines and the Zoning Code. As proposed, the project is generally consistent with the Downtown Design Guidelines. Under the Guidelines, the site is designated "High Intensity Mixed-Use (Residential/Commercial) Gateway." The Gateway is the north and south entrances to the downtown area; Alejo Road on the north side and Ramon Road on the south end between Belardo Road and Indian Canyon Drive. The Guidelines describe the Gateways as follows: • "They should be taller (max. 60 ft.), high intensity mixed-use (residential/commercial) areas with distinctive landscaping and signage marking the entrance to downtown." The maximum height of the tallest structure within the development is 51 feet. • "New buildings should be sensitive to the historic context and complement the unique mix of architectural styles. In addition, new projects should strive for excellence in architectural design." The scale of the design and its street presence is consistent with the visions of downtown area. • "Building height in the north and south gateway areas should be a maximum of 30 feet on the street front stepping back to 60 feet in height with minor intrusions for architectural features."The proposed maximum height of the tallest structure 5 City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs,LLC;5.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 6 of 12 within the development is 51 feet; this is consistent with the Downtown Design Guideline. • "Underground structured parking has the least impact on the visual quality of downtown and is encouraged when feasible." Above ground parking facility is being proposed for the site development. Two free standing structures located at the south and north ends of the project site including surface parking are being proposed. Additional Design Concepts in the Guidelines & Staff Analysis: • Create new mid-block walkthroughs and pedestrian connections: As designed, the ground level proposes a high density of commercial retail and restaurant uses along Palm Canyon Drive. Vehicular uses are directed towards the interior of the complex to preserve pedestrian sidewalk experience. The project also provides a prominent walkthrough within and outside of the ground floor. • Protector create public view corridors along streets: The project's maximum height, overall mass, scale, setbacks and lower roof lines are designed to preserve public views especially along Palm Canyon Drive. Also, the buildings on the site will be articulated to provide some views. Additionally, the individual hotel rooms have open passage ways between them for added views. • Create distinctive gateways to downtown with large water element and signage: The project proposes to make the corner of East Alejo Road and a Palm Canyon Drive a focal point by creating a sense of arrival at the location. Adequate setbacks along Alejo Road are proposed to allow planting in front of the distinct sculptured architectural fagade of corten paneling which acts as a backdrop to the adjacent Frances Stevens Park. There is no water element being proposed at this location. • Ensure a vibrant, compact, and walkable "core"downtown: The proposed mixed-use development consisting of a 150-room hotel, commercial retail and restaurant use is designed to activate pedestrian experience in that part of the downtown. The future built-out of the project will ensure a vibrant and walkable downtown with art galleries, art studios and other retail uses designed to attract and enhance pedestrian activities within the development and its surroundings. • Create new mixed-use development projects, especially in the central core area and the northern and southern ends of downtown: This project meets this vision; it is a mixed-use development in the northern gateway to the core area of downtown. Upon completion, this area of the downtown will become more vibrant and pedestrian friendly. • Concentrate tall, high density projects in the central downtown core and at the north and south gateways to downtown: At that location, and with a maximum height of 51 feet, the project is consistent with the above-stated design concept. Also, with a 150-room hotel, the density is well within the 6 City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs, LLC;5.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 7 of 12 allowable density of similar developments by the Code and more importantly it is situated at the northern gateway to downtown area. • Strengthen or create pedestrian and vehicular connections between areas of activity/districts: The project will strengthen pedestrian connections between this development and adjoining businesses by maintaining and enhancing the existing sidewalks along Palm Canyon Drive frontage and East Alejo Road. Also, there are pedestrian points of access to the site through East Alejo Road, Palm Canyon and Indian Canyon Drives; furthermore, there are pedestrian connections into and within the development. AAC Review.- The Architectural Advisory Committee (AAC) reviewed the project and provided comments on October 7, 2013. On October 21, 2013, the AAC considered the project and recommended approval to the Planning Commission with comments. The project architect and the applicant indicated their willingness to incorporate some suggested changes by the AAC into the final design. The AAC requested additional exhibits showing the following: • A wraparound of the ground level retail on the south side • Improve the overhang on the east • Add bulkhead on the east to block vehicle lights • Provide additional corner options on the northwest section of the site. Fully developed landscape plans with planters on Palm Canyon were asked to be brought back to the Committee for a final review. The applicant has since revised the plans to address these comments. Final landscape plans will be reviewed one more time at the Final PDD submittal phase. Planning Commission Review.- At its public hearing meeting on December 11, 2013, the Planning Commission considered the proposed amendment to the PD and by a vote of 7-0, approved the amended project with the following recommended comments: • The Indian Canyon side to be reconsidered to allow pedestrian circulation. • Activate the Alejo/Indian Canyon corner. • Utilize extra space on the second floor over the garage to give more connectivity to the third level hotel rooms from the street view. • Pedestrian access to be created from the ground level parking garage on the north onto Palm Canyon. • Replace some of the northern ground floor parking to allow for commercial space on Indian Canyon and/or Alejo Road. • Parking structure lighting to be shielded from the street. The applicant has addressed these comments by making revisions to the project and incorporating some of the Planning Commission's suggestions into the project. M f City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs, LLC;5.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 8 of 12 Landscape Plan: Proposed landscape design will include a mix of desert appropriate plant selections consisting of different mix of plants along the project perimeter, the entry area, the building edge along Alejo Road and Indian Canyon Drive. The conceptual landscaping plan includes drought tolerant plantings which are designed to soften the hardscape throughout the project. Shade trees are proposed for the Palm Canyon and Alejo frontage, and palm trees for the Indian Canyon frontage. Proposed auto court area landscaping will provide an attractive and varied landscape for the project. Finally, as designed, each room on the hotel floor will contain a private garden area as a focal point. Parking: As noted in the Table above, the proposed project includes sufficient parking to satisfy the requirements of the mixed-use development and Zoning Ordinance. The applicant has proposed two free-standing parking structures located at the south and north sides of the project site. Pursuant to the parking requirements of the Palm Springs Zoning Code, the total required parking for the project is 226; the applicant has provided 283 parking spaces. The commercial component of this project is approximately 32,750 square feet in size. According to Section 92.26.00(6) (downtown parking combining zone) of the Zoning Code, mixed-use developments in excess of 20,000 square feet of gross floor area are required to provide 1 parking space for every 375 square feet of gross floor area. In this case, the required parking spaces for the commercial section will be 87; the 150-room hotel will require 125 spaces, therefore, the total required parking spaces is 226. The applicant has provided 283 parking spaces for the development. Additional parking spaces will not be needed as long as restaurant use does not exceed 25% of the total floor area of the development. Staff has included a condition of approval (PLN 3) that will require the applicant to amend this requirement should the need occur to increase the restaurant use within the development. Vesting Tentative Tract Map: The applicant has also submitted an application to amend the current Vesting Tentative Tract Map 34190 which was previously approved along with PDD 324. That map was for a two-parcel condominium map and three lettered lots for the entire project. The applicant is now proposing to modify the condominium map by subdividing the property into one parcel with three lettered lots for street purposes only. Findings and analysis in support of approval of the map are provided in the findings section of this report. Public Benefits: In September 2008, the City Council adopted a policy requiring that proposed Planned Development District developments provide a specific Public Benefit proportionate to the nature, type and extent of the relief granted from the development standards and requirements. This project was originally approved in 2006 prior to the adoption of this policy, moreover, the applicant is not requesting for any new relief or deviations from the Code or the previously established standards with this amendment. However, the applicant has stated that the proposed development will provide these benefits to the City: 8 City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs, LLC;5,1091 PD 324-AMND Page 9 of 12 • The development will enhance tourism in Palm Springs • Attract national interests to the Convention Center • Create additional revenues for the City • Create additional jobs • Activate the gateway to the Downtown area REQUIRED FINDINGS According to Section 94.03.00(G) of the Palm Springs Zoning Code, amendments to Planned Development Districts are to be processed in the same manner as the original PDD application. Pursuant to PSZC Section 94.03.00 "Planned Development Districts" findings shall be made in support of approval of the PDD application in accordance with Section 94.02.00 (B)(6). Those findings are listed below with Staffs analysis of the project against those findings. Findings can be made in support of the proposed Planned Development District Amendment as follows: a. The proposed planned development amendment is consistent and in conformity with the general plan pursuant to Sections 94.07.00 (A)(1) and 94.02.00 (A)(4) of the Palm Springs Zoning Code. The proposed planned development amendment is consistent with the General Plan, which includes special provisions for the Central Business District. The project will bring revitalization to the Downtown area with the development of new retail commercial space; also, the boutique hotel could enhance the City's tourism base. b. The subject property is suitable for the uses permitted in the proposed planned development district, in terms of access, size of parcel, relationship to similar or related uses, and other relevant considerations. The project, as proposed, is consistent with the Downtown Design Guidelines and the vision of the area for the future. The site is physically suitable for the proposed project, and provides sufficient access points for all uses proposed. C. The proposed establishment of the planned development district is necessary and proper, and is not likely to be detrimental to adjacent property or residents. The Planned Development District modifies height and setback requirements in a manner which is conducive with the urban development sought for the site in the future. The inclusion of a mixed-use project consisting of a boutique hotel and retail commercial in this area of the City will increase vitality and activity in the Downtown area. d. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways properly designed and improved to carry the type and quantity of traffic to be generated by the proposed use. 9 City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs,LLC;5.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 10 of 12 The project proposes primary vehicular access to the public streets from Palm Canyon Drive. There is another entry to the northerly portion of the development from Alejo Road; therefore the development will relate to existing streets and highways. Also, traffic and ease of circulation within and around the development were analyzed in the previously adopted MND incorporated into the current document. e. That the conditions to be imposed and shown on the approved site plan are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare and may include minor modification of the zone's property development standards. A draft set of conditions of approval are proposed in the attached Exhibit B; these conditions are from different departments of the City which include Planning, Building, Fire and Public Works. All the conditions from the original entitlement and Mitigation Measures from the new analysis to the previously adopted MND also apply to this project. Therefore, staff believes that the conditions imposed are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. Vesting Tentative Tract Map Amendment Additional findings are required for the proposed subdivision pursuant to Section 66474 of the Subdivision Map Act. These findings and a discussion of the project as it relates to these findings follow: a. The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map is consistent with all applicable general and specific plans. The previously approved vesting tentative tract map was for a two-parcel condominium map and three lettered lots for the entire project. The applicant is now proposing to modify the condominium map by subdividing the property into one parcel with three lettered lots for street purposes only. The map is consistent with the City's general plan. b. The design and improvements of the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map are consistent with the zone in which the property is located. The design of the map is consistent with the allowable uses under the Planned Development District for this property. The Planned Development District allows for variations from zoning standards. C. The site is physically suited for this type of development. The currently vacant site was previously fully developed with commercial uses and it is surrounded by existing development and City streets. The construction of commercial / retail and hotel buildings on the site is appropriate at this location. d. The site is physically suited for the proposed density of development. The site can accommodate the 150-room hotel ancillary commercial uses as proposed. i � City Council Staff Report April 2,2014 Palm Springs,LLC; 5.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 11 of 12 The approximate 4.1-acre site is physically suited for the size, scope and density of the proposed hotel and ancillary commercial retail. e. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish, wildlife, or their habitats. The Amended Vesting Tentative Tract Map and associated Planned Development District have been reviewed under the California Environmental Quality Act, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted. Mitigation measures have been included which will reduce potential impacts to less than significant levels. The site has been fully developed for many years, and does not include any natural habitat. The project will therefore not damage or injure fish, wildlife or their habitats. f. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems. The subdivision is designed to meet or exceed City standards. The 150-room hotel and commercial spaces will be required to meet or exceed City building codes. The project will not cause public health problems. g. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of the property within the proposed subdivision. There are no known public easements or access across the subject property, therefore the design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements for access through or use of the property. Any utility easements can be accommodated within the project design. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DETERMINATION: The Planning Department has reviewed this amended project under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). On October 4, 2006, and September 7, 2011, the City Council adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) No. 2006109032 for the project. An updated traffic study dated July 8, 2011, and a subsequent environmental analysis was prepared under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and a determination was made by the Planning Department that the amended project will not result in any new additional impacts beyond those that were previously identified and addressed and that adequate mitigation measures had already been incorporated into the project. In the new assessment, staff also concluded that the MND covered the issues the City addressed, including topics such as land use policies, safety, aesthetics, biological resources, noise effects and traffic impacts during construction and operation of the project. In addition to the mitigation measures included in the MND, staff has included conditions of approval in support of the subsequent environmental analysis and the previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration. 11 City Council Staff Report April 2, 2014 Palm Springs, LLC;5.1091 PD 324-AMND Page 12 of 12 NOTIFICATION A public hearing notice was advertised and was mailed to all property owners within 500 feet of the subject property/adjacent property owners.

(ER) Principal Planner Robertson presented an overview of the proposed project as outlined in the staff report. He corrected an error on page 7 regarding parking where 212 spaces were listed and 226 is correct. Chair Donenfeld opened the public hearing portion of the meeting: LAWRENCE RAEL, president, Rael Development, introduced the architect who will be providing the presentation and all the consultants will be available to answer questions. HAGY BELZBURG, project architect, presented a computer simulation of the proposed project relating to the reduction of density for the hotel creating small bungalows and allowing continuation of the retail fabric down the street. Mr. Belzburg addressed the height, setbacks, massing, rooms, swimming pools, courtyard connectivity and desert landscaping. BOB HELBLING, commented that this project is even better and liked the idea of the modern bungalow concept; he spoke in favor of the project. KIM WESTBROOK, commercial developer, spoke in favor of the proposed project and commended the applicant. 4lPage 48 Planning Commission Minutes December 11, 2013 JOY MEREDITH, downtown business owner and president of MainStreet, commented that having this new project connecting downtown and uptown would be incredible. She said that lots of changes have been made and spoke in support of the project. FRANK TYSEN, said architecturally nice features, however, is concerned with the scale of the building and project should have an E.I.R. and more discussion on public benefit. He questioned adding another 150 rooms to the city. LAWRENCE RAEL, applicant, thanked all the speakers for their comments and was available to answer questions from the Commission. There being no further appearances the public hearing portion was closed. Commissioner Calerdine said the plans look really exciting and asked the architect to walk them through one of the plans from the lobby to the third or fourth floor hotel rooms next to Amado. Commissioner Roberts thanked the applicant for a great new design. He asked about the design on level two and why consideration was not taken for retail opportunities on Indian Canyon. Mr. Belzburg addressed his concerns and explained the concept of the project. Vice-Chair Hudson noted that the parking portion is split into two areas and questioned if the northern parking will be controlled or paid for parking. Mr. Rael responded that discussions have been on-going with the City in designing this parking and they were working on a negotiated agreement to make the north parking public and the south side will be valet parking. Vice-Chair Hudson asked if there will be access to the parking from Indian Canyon. Mr. Rael answered as it is currently designed no; but there may be something that might be able to be incorporated into the project. Vice-Chair Hudson expressed concern that the bungalow village will not be visible from the street and commented on the lack of activity given to Indian Canyon. He feels the Indian Canyon elevation needs more attention to the pedestrian streetscape. Commissioner Weremiuk reiterated concern about access from the retail parking on Palm Canyon. She expressed concern with the lack of pedestrian streetscape on Indian Canyon and would like to see trees that provide shade and encourage walking. Commissioner Klatchko concurred with the comments from the Commissioners and suggested perhaps lowering the plateau about five feet on the north end to give better visibility of the hotel rooms from the street. He has the same concerns with the north parking and pedestrian access. It would be helpful for more access points for parking. 51Page 49 Planning Commission Minutes December 11, 2013 Chair Donenfeld commented that it is unfair to expect the developer to make Indian Canyon more viable; that is the City's responsibility. Lawrence Rael appreciated the Commission's comments and agrees with the comments made regarding the corner on Indian Canyon; but the project is still a work in progress and they will be back with an even better project. ACTION: Find that the previously adopted mitigated negative declaration is sufficient and appropriate environmental document and approve the amended project and the Final PD to return to the Commission with the following considerations: 1.) The Indian Canyon side to be reconsidered to allow more pedestrian circulation. 2.) Activate the Alejo / Indian corner. 3.) Utilize extra space on the 2nd floor over the garage to give more connectivity to the 3rd level hotel rooms from the street view. 4.) Pedestrian access to be created from the ground level parking garage on the north onto Palm Canyon. 5.) Replace some of the northern ground floor parking to allow for commercial space on Indian Canyon and/or Alejo Road. 6.) Parking structure lighting to be shielded from the street.

(MR) Project architect, Hagy Belzburg described the changes from the last presentation on October 7th. MATTHEW BOUSQUETTE, adjacent property owner, said that he wants something built that doesn't leave trash and utility dock adjacent to his property. He said that police would not be able to patrol the roadway in between. He wants to do a restaurant and sculpture garden on his property but will not be able to do if this moves forward. FRANK TYSEN, historic inn owner, disagreed with the architect saying the project did not look at all like Palm Springs. He said it is the absence of large projects why people come here. He said that the developer should do community meetings, there should be a new EIR and the project should be sent back to the drawing board. FERNANDO SILVA, architect, said the project was not out of scale and that Palm Springs is no longer a small 19th century village. JAMES CIOFFI, architect, said that the developer had previously done community meetings. This site is identified as a high intensity gateway site in the Downtown Design Plan. The architect has done an outstanding job; the trash locations can be handled. MR. BELZBURG followed up saying the trash location on the south can be removed; he designed the building breaking up the massing and so as not to cast shadows on adjacent properties. COMMITTEE MEMBER FAUBER asked for the architect to describe the changes on Indian Canyon. MR. BELZBURG said there was greater activation on the ground floor with meeting space enhanced lighting and landscaping. 2 52 Architectural Advisory Committee Minutes- Revised October 21. 2013 COMMITTEE MEMBER SONG had concerns about headlights shining directly into the meeting space, blunt edges and driveways. The architect agreed to look into the headlight issue and enhanced overhangs. COMMITTEE MEMBER FREDRICKS asked about the height on the corner at Palm Canyon and Alejo Road. MR. BELZBURG responded 45 feet. COMMITTEE MEMBER FAUBER commented he was originally concerned with the project changes to hotel from residential but the design has assuaged his misgivings. He asked about the south property line. MR. BELZBURG indicated it is a landscaped setback. Their preference is that the retail be continuous along Palm Canyon. COMMITTEE MEMBER HIRSCHBEIN had questions regarding the landscape planter in front of stores. He supports extending the storefronts to the south. COMMITTEE MEMBER FREDRICKS stated that he is pleased with the setbacks but is still concerned with the massing. CHAIR SECOY-JENSEN wants to see stronger effort on the south. The retail needs to continue. Although she may be in the minority, she preferred the previous elevations, specifically the northwest comer. VICE-CHAIR FAUBER indicated that he felt that the North Palm Canyon needs high quality railings. The applicant should work with the neighbor to the south. M/S/C (Secoy-Jensen/Fauber, 6-0-1 absent Cassady) Approve request with the following to be re-submitted: • Exhibits showing: south side compatible with neighbor with additional retail and remove trash area • Overhang on the east details • Bulkhead on east blocking car lights • Northwest corner options COMMITTEE MEMBER HIRSCHBEIN asked to ensure it d e with schedule.

Project Summary: The project is a proposed amendment to a previously approved Planned Development District 324 (PDD 324) and a modification to the previously approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map 34190, for the construction of a 150-room boutique hotel with approximately 32,750 square feet of ancillary commercial retail, restaurant and free standing parking structure. The property is a vacant 4.1-acre site bounded by Alejo Road on the north, North Palm Canyon Drive on the west, North Indian Canyon Drive on the east, and existing commercial development on the south. 2. Previous Environmental Documentation: On September 7, 2011, the City Council of the City of Palm Springs found a Mitigated Negative Declaration to be sufficient and appropriate for a proposed 175-room hotel and ancillary commercial and approved Case No. 5.1091-PDD 324, a Planned Development District application and Vesting Tentative Tract Map 34190. The approval also included a parking structure on the approximately 4.1 acres located at the southeast corner of Alejo Road and North Palm Canyon Drive. The project consists of the following components; a 175-room boutique hotel, approximately 24,285 square feet of retail commercial development and a free standing parking structure. In finding that the MND was sufficient and appropriate, the City Council determined that the 2011 amended project will have no significant environmental impacts and that any other potentially significant environmental impacts would be reduced to a level of insignificance through the incorporation of mitigation measures. 3. Purpose and Basis for this Assessment: Pursuant to Sections 15051 and 15367 of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines (Title 14 California Code of Regulations SS 1500-15387), the City is the Lead Agency for CEQA compliance. Based on the analysis in this assessment, the City determined that the potential impacts of the project were previously analyzed, and substantially similar to the 2011 project's impacts analyzed in the MND, and that none of the conditions identified in Public Resources Code Section 21166 or Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines apply. Since the project not involve new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. This assessment serves as the appropriate form of environmental documentation under CEQA and the preparation of a subsequent MND or other document under Public Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 is not warranted. The assessment is intended to do the following: 54 Port Lawrence CEQA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 2 of 8 (a) Compare the project's environmental impacts as analyzed in the MND, (b) Document the City's findings with respect to the project and its environmental determinations, (c) To evaluate the need for a new, supplemental or subsequent Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration in connection with the project 4. Project Description: On September 9, 2013, the owner of the previously approved Port Lawrence project submitted an application to modify the previously approved project. The modified project calls for a 150-room boutique hotel, ancillary retail commercial space and associated parking structure. The project also includes a previously approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map 34190 (TTM 34190) to subdivide the approximately 4.1-acre property. As proposed, the amendment will_not affect the intent of the previously established Planned Development District design standards but will modify site configuration and Vesting Tentative Tract Map 34190. As proposed, the project will not affect the intent of the previously established PDD 324 design standards but will modify site and lot configuration as detailed in the staff report. Staff conducted an environmental analysis of the modified project under CEQA and made a finding that "Pursuant to Section 15162 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the preparation of a Subsequent MND, Addendum to the MND or further environmental documentation is not necessary because the changed circumstances of the project will not result in any new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. The modified development, a proposal for 150-room hotel and ancillary commercial retail spaces would not result in any new environmental impacts beyond those already assessed in the previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration. (MND No. 2006109032). Additionally, no new mitigation measures are proposed with the 2011 project. The Table on the following page compares the previously approved PDD 324 and the modified proposal, PDD 324. 55 Port Lawrence CEOA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 3 of 8 PROJECT ANALYSIS: Location 414 North Palm Canyon Drive 414 North Palm Canyon Drive Proposed Use Mixed-use; Hotel & Commercial Mixed-Use; Hotel &Commercial Lot Size 4.1 Acres 4.1 Acres FAR: Total Area 171,160 Sq. ft. 171,160 Sq.

The overall permitted height of the project has been reduced throughout the project site, resulting in reduced aesthetic impacts, including reduced impacts to view corridors. On the whole, due to a slightly lower profile and increased setbacks, the project will have no new or more sever view impacts when compared to 56 Port Lawrence CEQA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 4 of 8 the 2011 project. The conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impacts to the aesthetics apply to the project. Agriculture Resources: The project will not result in new significant agricultural resources impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified agricultural resources impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The current project site is identical to the 2011 project site. The project site is surrounded by developed commercial properties and neither the site nor its adjacent uses are designated as farmland or are subject to a Williamson Act contract. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impacts to aesthetics apply to the project. Air Quality: The project will not create additional air quality impacts beyond those already evaluated in the MND, or increase the severity of those impacts. This is due to the fact that the project represents a reduction in both size and scope as compared to the 2011 project (e.g. 25 hotel rooms, although the MIND as a whole considered 175 hotel rooms); the amended project will involve less construction and operational-related emissions than the 2011 protect. The mitigation measures proposed in the MND will apply to the project and no new mitigation measures are required in order for the project to have a less than significant air quality impact. Therefore, the MND's conclusion of a less than significant air quality impact with incorporation of mitigation measures also applies to the project. Biological Resources: The project will not result in new significant biological resources impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified biological resources impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The current project site is identical to the 2011 project site. The project will be located in the downtown area which was previously fully developed and disturbed. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project will have no impacts to biological resources also apply to the project. Cultural Resources: The project will not result in new significant cultural resources impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified cultural resources impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The current project site is identical to the 2011 project site. The project will be located in a downtown area which was previously fully developed and disturbed. The MND noted that there is always the possibility of buried cultural and paleontological resources on the project site. The MND therefore included mitigation measures in the event these resources are uncovered during the 2011 project development. Those mitigation measures will apply to the project as well, reducing the project's potential cultural resources impacts to less than significant. 57 Port Lawrence CEQA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 5 of 8 Geology and Soils: The project will not result in new significant geology and soils Impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified geology and soils impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The current project site is identical to the 2011 project site. The geologic conditions and location of the project site are unchanged. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impact on geology and soils apply to the project. Hazards and Hazardous Materials: The project will not result in new significant hazards and hazardous materials impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified hazards and hazardous material impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The project's proposed uses are substantially similar to the 2011 project, albeit somewhat less intense given the project's reduced density. As a result, the amount of household cleaners and chemicals typically used for hotel development will be less than the proposed project. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impact on hazards and hazardous material apply to the project. Hydrology and Water Quality: The modified project will not result in new significant hydrology and water quality impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified hydrology and water quality impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The modified project is less intense than the 2011 project analyzed in the MND (e.g. 25 fewer hotel rooms) and thus, water demand from the project will be less than the 2011 project. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impacts on hydrology and water quality apply to the project. Land Use: The modified project will not result in new significant land use impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified land use impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The proposed changes to the project have not changed the designated land use of the subject site; moreover there are no significant changes in the surrounding land uses that could change the circumstances of the project. The surrounding land uses are predominantly commercial and that has not changed since the MND was adopted. The 2011 project evaluated in the MND included a 175-room hotel and approximately 24,285 square feet of commercial retail. The modified project proposes a 150-room hotel and approximately 32,000 square feet of ancillary commercial retail development, which is consistent with PDD 324 and the General Plan. Thus, there is no conflict with the applicable land use designation. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impacts on land use apply to the project. J � Port Lawrence CEQA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 6 of 8 Mineral Resources: The modified project will not result in new significant mineral resources impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified mineral resources impacts when compared to the 2011 project. The current project site is identical to the 2011 project site. The project will be located in the developed Central Business District downtown area. The site was previously fully developed and disturbed. As was concluded in the previously adopted MND, no significant mineral resources have been identified in the project area. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impact to mineral resources apply to the project. Noise: The project will not result in new significant noise impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified noise impacts, when compared to the 2011 project. The MND identified potential noise impacts and required that specified construction and operational mitigation measures (e.g., compliance with all construction regulations including construction hours prescribed in the City's Municipal Code) be implemented to ensure those potential impacts are reduced to less than significant levels. Implementation of noise related Mitigation Measures fully mitigated all of the 2011 project's construction and operational noise impacts. As with the 2011 project, the proposed project upon completion will not generate significant additional noise in the project area beyond current levels. Given the project's reduced size, construction noise and post-construction noise will be reduced over that analyzed for the 2011 project. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that with mitigation measures the 2011 project's noise impacts would be less than significant apply to the project. Population and Housing: The modified project will not result in new significant population and housing impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified population and housing impacts, when compared to the 2011 project. The modified project is substantially the same as the 2011 project analyzed in the MND in that it will not displace any existing housing, but the project proposes fewer hotel rooms than the 2011 project. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project would have no impacts on population and housing apply to the project. Public Services: The modified project will not result in new significant public services impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified public services impacts when compared to the 2011 project. Given that the project contains fewer hotel rooms than the 2011 project, the modified project will have fewer impacts on public services than the 2011 project analyzed in the MND. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project's impacts on public services would be less than the significant apply to the project. 59 Port Lawrence CEQA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 7 of 8 Recreation: The modified project will not result in new significant recreation impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified recreation impacts, when compared to the 2011 project. Given that the project contains significantly fewer hotel rooms, and slightly higher overall ancillary commercial retail space compared to the 2011 project, the amended project will be providing on-site recreational opportunities, the project will have fewer impacts on recreation than the 2011 project. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project's recreation will be less than significant apply to the project. Traffic: The amended project is for a 150-room boutique hotel with approximately 32,750 square feet of ancillary retail / commercial, restaurant and parking structure. The project site is surrounded by existing public roadways on three sides. North Palm Canyon and North Indian Canyon provide cross-town access through the City. Alejo Road is a local roadway which provides east-west access through the project area. A Traffic Impact Analysis based on a 175-room hotel and approximately 24,285 square feet of commercial retail space was conducted by the RK Engineering Group in 2011. The study reviewed the potential trip generation for the revised project in comparison to the approved project included in the previous traffic impact study. Trip Generation: Trip generation represents the amount of trips produced to and from the proposed project site. The analysis indicated that the previously approved project would generate 2,053 trip-ends per day with 102 vehicles per hour during the AM peak hour and 151 vehicles per hour during the PM peak hour. The amended project would generate 2,126 tri-ends per day with 87 vehicles per hour during the AM peak hour and 140 vehicles per hour during the PM peak hour. The report added that amended project would generate approximately 73 more daily trips; however, it would generate 15 less vehicles per hour during AM peak hour and 11 less vehicles per hour during the PM peak hour. And as a result of this analysis, there would be no significant change in trip generation or traffic impacts as a result of the amended project. Overall, the amended project would generate comparable trip generation from a daily and AM/PM peak hour standpoint than the original project. The analysis further indicated that the revised project would not have significantly different traffic impacts than the previously approved project. Therefore, the conclusions of the original study are still relevant and all previous recommendations still apply to the proposed revised project. All the mitigation measures from the previous MND will apply to the amended project. Utilities and Service Systems: The modified project will not result in new significant utilities and service systems impacts, or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified utilities and service systems impacts, when compared to the 2011 project. The project will have 60 Port Lawrence CEQA Environmental Analysis October 2013 Page 8 of 8 fewer hotel units than the 2011 project. Thus, its impacts on utilities and service systems will be less than the 2011 project analyzed in the MND. Therefore, the conclusions in the MND that the 2011 project will have less than significant impacts to utilities and service systems apply to the project. Findings: Based on the above, the modified project would not result in any new environmental impacts or substantially increase in the severity of previously identified impacts as compared to the 2011 project as analyzed in the adopted MND. Additionally, no new mitigation measures are necessary. Since the project does not involve new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, this assessment serves as the appropriate form of environmental documentation under CEQA and the preparation of a subsequent MND or other document under Public Resource Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 is not warranted. 61 INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION F - O� PALAq S A, �Z U LA INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION k � } .L a } TpRlptAl<O�� } �'qt r Fo ar`�P Pro ecl Title: "4 One 4 North Palm Canyon"/Palm Springs LLC Case No. 5.1091 -PD 324:3.2933, TIM 34190 Assessor's Parcel No. 513-081-002 through-006,-023 Lead Agency Name and City of Palm Springs Address: 3200 E.

Ewi g,AIC,q Date Dire Plan ' g S rvices Coy of Palm springs 4 One 4 Palm Canyon August 2006 faiNci study/Mitigated Negaffye Declaration 6 67 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION PURPOSE OF THIS INITIAL STUDY This Initial Study has been prepared consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15063, to determine if the "4 One 4 North Palm Canyon" project, as proposed, may have a significant effect upon the environment. Based upon the findings contained within this report, the Initial Study will be used in support of the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration. EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS 1) A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved (e.g., the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e.g., the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on project-specific i screening analysis). 2) All answers must lake into account the whole action involved, including offsite as well as onsite, cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational impacts. 3) Once the lead agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, then the checklist answers must indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than significant with mitigation, or less than significant. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required. 4) "Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact' to a "Less Than Significant Impact:' The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level mitigation measures from Section XVII,"Earlier Analyses:'may be cross-referenced). 5) Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063(c)(3)(D).In this case,a brief discussion should identify the following: a) Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review. b) Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis. C) Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project. City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 fn0faf Study/MWgated Negative Declaration r 68 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION 6) Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should,where appropriate,include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. 7) Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion. 8) The explanation of each issue should identify: a) The significance criteria or threshold,if any, used to evaluate each question;and b) The mitigation measure identified,if any, to reduce the impacts to less than significance. i City of Palm Spdngs - "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration 8 69 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION I.

Setting The proposed project is located In the City of Palm Springs, the western-most city in the Coachella Valley. The City is bordered on the west by the San Jacinto Mountains, on the north by the San Bernardino Mountains, on the east by the City of Cathedral City, and on the south by the Santa Rosa Mountains. The project site is located north of the center of the Palm Springs downtown core, in an area that is entirely built out. A two and three story condominium and two story commercial buildings occur on the east. One and two story retail commercial buildings occur on the west and south sides of the site. Frances Stevens Park occurs north of the site. Views in the area of the project site are primarily to the west, and focus on the San Jacinto Mountains. Views to the east, north and south are limited by existing development, and limited visual resources in those areas. Discussion of Impacts a) Less Than Significant Impact. Development of the proposed project will result in 3 to 5 story buildings extending to heights ranging from 33 to 56 feet. The buildings vary considerably in elevation, and will be distributed as follows: from south to north on North Palm Canyon, buildings are proposed to be 33',34' (with projections on either side of the plaza at 45'6", and 47' at the corner of Alejo and North Palm Canyon. From south to north on Indian Canyon, the buildings are proposed to be 35'6", 37'6", and 56'6" at the comer of Alejo and Indian Canyon. In the center of the site, the two buildings are proposed to be 55'. The larger masses of the buildings, therefore, are proposed for the center and northern portions of the site. As previously stated, views from surrounding properties are primarily to the west. As a result, the land uses to the east of the site, across Indian Canyon, will have the most potential for view obstruction from the proposed project. These buildings consist of a two City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Sivdy/Mitigated Negative Declaration 9 70 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION and three story condominium project, and one and two story commercial buildings. Persons in the ground and second floors of the condominium building will have limitations on their views of the foothills to the west. The top half of The hillsides and mountain ridge lines will still be visible above the fop of the buildings. Persons in The commercial buildings on the east side of Indian Canyon will also experience some view obstruction, but due to the lower elevations of the buildings in this portion of the site, and the distance to the structures,more of the mountain hillside will be visible. Residential development on the northeast corner of Alejo and Indian Canyon will not be impacted by the height of The proposed buildings, insofar as the view corridor through Alejo Road, and views through the park will remain as they currently are. Commercial land uses on the west side of Palm Canyon currently have in their primary view the existing buildings on the site.There are no significant vistas to the east, although the Little San Bernardino Mountains and Indio Hills can be seen in the for distance through the existing parking lot. The views to The east will be blocked by the proposed project, but because of the lack of vistas in this direction, impacts are expected 10 be extremely limited. views of the mountains from Calle Encilio and points to the east will not be significantly affected by development of the proposed project, insofar as distance from the site will allow the hillsides and ridge lines of the San Jacinto Mountains to be clearly visible above the structures. This view is expected to be similar to the view from Indian Canyon and 1 Amado westerly, where the Hyatt hotel occurs, at a building height of approximately 60 to 70 feet. In summary, the primary area of impact will be from the east side of Indian Canyon, looking westerly.The residents and businesses will lose some of the views of the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains, but are expected to retain the views of the upper hills and ridgeiines. These impacts are not expected To be significant. b) No Impact. There are no significant trees, rock outcroppings, historic buildings or other significant aesthetic resources on the project site. The project site is not located on a scenic roadway. e) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project site is currently occupied by older, poorly maintained buildings which have in recent times been the subject of code enforcement and public safety actions. The siT'e in its current condition does not contribute to the successful redevelopment of the downtown area, as envisioned in the City's Redevelopment Plan. Under current conditions, therefore, the site degrades the visual character of this portion of The downtown. The proposed project architecture includes components and elements which are consistent with The mid-century modern style typical of Palm Springs. The buildings will add to the eclectic character of the Palm Canyon corridor, which currently is host to a broad range of styles. The proposed architecture includes a mix of materials and colors which will provide visual interest in this area. The height of the proposed buildings is consistent with the recently approved Downtown Design Guidelines, which were prepared to allow for the creative redevelopment of the Palm Canyon corridor, and encourage greater building heights. The proposed project will somewhat change the character of the block on which it is located, but not in a manner which will be significant. CRY of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mitigated NegoHve Deciwaf(on 10 ' 71 INITIAL T$ UDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION d) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project is fully developed, and has generated right for many years. The proposed project will also generate light, both on site and from vehicles associated with the project. However, the site is located in the City's central business district, an area already impacted by high levels of night-time activity. The construction of the subterranean garage of the site may reduce right impacts,by removing vehicles from the street surface which would currently park on the streets surrounding the project site. The project will be required to comply with Zoning Ordinance Section 91.21.00, Outdoor Lighting Standards. Exterior fighting plans must be submitted to the Director of Planning Services for review and approval prior to the issuance of building permits. Therefore, impacts associated with right and glare are expected to be less than significant. i i i City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mi fgated Negative Declaration 11 7 2 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION II. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources ore significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Lond Evaluation and Site Assessment Model 11997) prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. Less Than Polentially Significant Less Than No Significant With Significant Impact Impact Mitigation Impact Would the project: Incorporated a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and El El El 0 Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency,to non-agricultural use? b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural El ❑ use,or a Williamson Act contract? c) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature,could result in conversion of Farmland, El to non-agricultural use? Setting The City of Palm Springs is located in a desert environment. Soils are characterized as sandy and rocky. Due to their low organic content and dry, granular nature, most soils in the City are not well suited to support vegetation (Smith, Peron! and Fox, 1992). The project site is in the central business district,and is fully developed. Discussion of Impacts a) No Impact. The project site is not designated Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance under the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency. The site is fully developed. No impact to farmland would occur. b) No Impact. The project site is not covered by a Williamson Act contract. Furthermore, no Williamson Act Contracts are located in the vicinity of the project site. No farming activity occurs within several miles of the project site. Therefore, no impacts to Williamson Act Contracts would occur. c) No Impact. The project site is located in the City's central core, and no agricultural activities occur in the vicinity. Redevelopment of the site will therefore not cause the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural use. city of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 IrNtial Study/Mlffgaled Negative Declaration 12 73 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION III. AIR QUALITY Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations.

Setting Air quality is evaluated based on Federal and State air quality standards and regulations and guidelines developed by individual air quality management districts. Mobile sources of air pollutants are primarily controlled through Federal and State agencies while stationary sources are regulated by the SCAQMD. Development within the City is governed by the 2003 Air Quality Management Plan (2003 AQMP) and the 2002 Coachella Valley PMo State Implementation Plan (CVPMroSIP). The AQMP sets forth a comprehensive program to bring Palm Springs and the other areas within its jurisdiction into compliance with Federal and State air quality standards. CEQA requires that projects be consistent with the applicable AQMP. The City of Palm Springs is in the Coachella Valley. Palm Springs' climate is characterized by low annual rainfall (2 to 6 inches per year) and low humidity with temperatures ranging from 800 F to 108°F in July and 400 F to 570 F in January. The City is located in the Salton Sea Air Basin, under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mltigoted Negative Declaration 13 74 INITIAL STUDY/N EGATIV E DECLARATION The SCAQMD maintains two stations in the Coachella Valley. The stations monitor criteria pollutants ozone, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter under 10 microns (PMio) and fine particulate matter 2.5 microns in size (PM2.5). Criteria air pollutants are contaminants for which the state and federal air quality standards have been established- They are show in Table Ilk] and described in detail below. The Coachella Valley is currently designated as a "severe-17" ozone non-attainment area. This designation indicates that the attainment date for the federal ozone standards is November 15, 2007 (17 years from the date of enactment of the federal Clean Air Act). The South County Air Basin and Riverside County portion of the Salton Sea Air Basin are in attainment for the federal and State standards for lead.

The creation of ozone is a result of complex chemical reactions between hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen in the presence of sunshine. Unlike other pollutants, ozone is not released directly into the atmosphere from any sources. The major sources of oxides of nitrogen and reactive hydrocarbons, known as ozone precursors, are combustion sources such as factories and automobiles, and evaporation of solvents and fuels. The health effects of ozone are eye irritation and damage to lung tissues. I - Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, toxic gas formed by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. CO concentrations are generally higher In the winter, when meteorological conditions favor the build-up of directly emitted contaminants. CO health warning and emergency episodes occur almost entirely during the winter. The most significant source of carbon monoxide is gasoline powered automobiles, as a result of inefficient fuel usage in internal combustion engines. Various industrial processes also emit carbon monoxide. Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) the primary receptors of ultraviolet light initiating the photochemical reactions to produce smog. Nitric oxide combines with oxygen in the presence of reactive hydrocarbons and sunlight to form nitrogen dioxide and ozone. Oxides of nitrogen are contributors to other air pollution problems including: high levels of fine particulate matter, poor visibility and acid deposition. City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration 14 75 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION Sulfur Dioxide (S02) results from the combustion of high sulfur content fuels. Fuel combustion is the major source of S02,while chemical plants, sulfur recovery plants, and metal processing are minor contributors. Sulfates result from a relation of sulfur dioxide and oxygen in the presence of sunlight. S02 levels are generally higher in the winter than in the summer (when sunlight is plentiful and sulfate is more readily formed). Particulate Matter(PM,o and PM2.5) consists of particles in the atmosphere as a by-product of fuel combustion, through abrasion such as tire wear, and through soil erosion by wind. Particulates can also be formed through photochemical reactions in the atmosphere. PM,o refers to finely divided solids or liquids such as soot, dust, and aerosols which are 10 microns or less in diameter and can enter the lungs. Fine particles are those less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter and are also referred to as PM2.5. Lead is found in old paints and coatings, plumbing and a variety of other materials. Once In the blood stream, lead can cause damage to the brain, nervous system, and other body systems. Children are most susceptible to the effects of lead. The South County Air Basin and riverside ( County portion of the Salton Sea Air Basin are in attainment for the federal and State standards for lead. The SCQAMD has daily significance thresholds for operational and construction-related emissions a shown in Table 111-2.

The proposed project is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). Development at the project site will be governed by the 2003 Air Quality Management Plan (2003 AQMP) and the 2002 Coachella Valley PMIo State Implementation Plan (CVPM,oSIP). CEQA requires that projects be consistent with the applicable AQMP. The project is consistent with the General Plan land use designation in which it is located. Projects that are consistent with local General Plans are considered consistent with the air quality related regional plans including the current AQMP, the Coachella ValieyPM,o SIP and other applicable regional plans. No impacts associated with compliance with applicable management plans are expected. b-d) Less Than Significant Impact The proposed project will generate air emissions from three activities on the site: demolition of existing structures, construction of new buildings, and operation of the project in the long term. Each of these categories is analyzed individually below. Demolition The air quality impacts associated with the demolition of the existing buildings on the site include emissions from heavy equipment associated with site demolition, and emissions from worker trips 10 and from the project site for work each day. The existing buildings on the site were demolished using limited equipment, due to the small size of the site. Three off highway trucks, three tractor/loader backhoe and one rubber tired loader (as City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration - 15 76 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION defined by the SCAQMD) were used for the demolition phase. These types of emissions are relatively short-term. The following table summarizes the moving emissions generated at the site by demolition related equipment.

As shown in the Table, impacts associated with demolition of the existing structures did not exceed any of the SCAQMD thresholds of significance. Therefore, demolition of the project had a less than significant impact on air quality. The removal of the existing buildings will involve buildings which were constructed or renovated between the 1920s and the 1990s. The applicant prepared asbestos sampling studies for the buildings on the site. These studies identified asbestos in a number of locations. Asbestos removal is subject to the requirements of the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health, which shall assure that impacts are reduced to levels below significance. Further discussion of the asbestos occurring on the site can be found under the Hazards and Hazardous Materials section of this Initial Study. Construction Grading activities on the project site will generate fugitive dust. The City and surrounding region are in severe non-attainment for PM10, or particulate matter of 10 microns or less. The generation of fugitive dust on the site could contribute to PM10 concentrations, if it exceeds thresholds of significance established by SCAQMD. Table III-4, Fugitive Dust Potential, illustrates the anticipated fugitive dust which would be generated each day during grading of the site. The total of 108.24 pounds per day is below the threshold of significance of 150 pounds established by SCAQMD. Therefore, impacts associated with fugitive dust are expected to be less than significant.

As previously stated, the site is small, and will require relatively few pieces of equipment to complete the grading process. For purposes of this analysis, it has been assumed that one scraper, two tractor/loader/backhoe, two motor graders and one off-highway truck would be used on the site. The following table summarize the moving emissions generated at the site by construction related equipment.

As shown in the Table, emissions associated with grading and constriction on the site are not expected to exceed SCAQMD thresholds of significance, and impacts are expected to be less than significant. Operations A number of sources of long term air emissions will result from build out of the proposed project, including power plant emissions, emissions associated with the consumption of natural gas and vehicular emissions. While the level of impact anticipated from project operation is not expected to be significant, there will be an incremental, if limited, increase to the Cumulative impacts on air quality in the Coachella Valley region. As the majority of the area's electrical power is generated in the air basins outside the Coachella Valley, other projects within the City will also contribute to the cumulative impacts on air quality elsewhere. Air emissions associated with vehicle trips will be the most significant contributor to air emissions in the area. As described in the Traffic and Circulation section of this Initial Study, the proposed project will generate approximately 2,053 trips per day. These trips have been assumed in the analysis. The following table summarizes the potential generation and emission of pollutants associated with project build out.

The canyons surrounding the City also have yielded evidence of use by the Tribe, which took advantage of water sources, food sources from plants and animals, and rock for tool- making. The City's modem history began in the early 1870s, when John Guthrie McCallum purchased land in the area, and later subdivided it. Rapid expansion in the area began in the 1920s, with the City's spreading reputation as a health resort, and the increased interest from the Hollywood movie community. Until the end of World War II, architecture in the town site consisted primarily of Mission Revival and Spanish Colonial Revival structures. Development was centered around Palm Canyon Drive, as hotels and shops were constructed. After World War 11, the style turned to modem architecture, as the traditional architectural styles were considered too traditional and old fashioned.The modem style of architecture flourished in ?alm Springs in the 1950s and 1960s. with the work of architects Albert Frey,and Richard Neutra,among others. The City occurs well outside the boundary of ancient Lake Cahuilla, an area where paleontological resources have occurred. Further,soils in the City are generally post-Pleistocene age alluvium from the surrounding mountains, too new In the context of paleontology to yield fossilized remains. Dlscusslon of Impacts a) As previously stated, the project site is currently fully developed. Buildings within the project boundary range in age from the 1920s to 1969. A historic resource survey was conducted on the project site, because of the age of some of the structures within the. Gly of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/MlNgafed Negative Declaration 21 32 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION 1 project boundary'. The survey included extensive research into historical records, as well as on-site investigations and documentation. The research included numerous contacts with historical society representatives, as well as review of historic photographs provided by these indviduals. The results of the survey are summarized below. Six buildings currently occur on the project site, at the following addresses: 155 and 179 East Alejo, 497 North Indian Canyon, and 414, 428-456 and 476 North Palm Canyon. 155 and 179 East Alejo were built in 1955 and 1960, respectively, and have no architectural, historic or aesthetic merit. 497 North Indian Canyon was built in 1958, and although a typical example of modernist architecture, but is not an important example, and has no historic significance in terms of association with persons or events in Palm Springs' history. 476 North Palm Canyon was constructed in either 1936 or1941 as a residence, but was completely remodeled between 1993 and 1998, thereby losing much of its historic character, and eliminating the historic style of its fagode. These buildings do not have historic potential, and do not warrant further consideration. The buildings located at 414 North Palm Canyon were formerly part of the Monte Vista Hotel, portions of which were constructed in the 1920s.The hotel was originally owned by the Miller family, who acquired the property in 1922. The hotel consists of a complex of buildings, Including three pre-World War Il bungalows; a two story building constructed from 1947 to 1955; and a 1960s lobby building. The bungalows were originally in the Mission Revival style, but have been altered over time. The two story building exhibits Spanish/Monterey elements. The lobby building reflects modem interpretation of the Mission Revival style. As a whole, however, the complex does not display a cohesive architectural style. 428-456 North Palm Canyon, known as the Strebe Building, was built in 1946, and designed by Albert Frey and John Porter Clark. The building was originally designed to include a movie theatre, office, restaurants, retail spaces and apartments. The theatre was never completed. A portion of the building housed the Desert Farmers Market in the 1950s, while offices and retail spaces have operated throughout the building over the years. Two fires have occurred at the property, one In 1954 and one in 1979. The latter fire forced the demolition of the northern end of the building in 1991. Over time, many additions and modifications have been made, both permitted and un-permitted, to the inside and outside of the building,including a southern extension of the original structure. The study considered the relationship of the two potentially significant buildings to the requirements of CEQA for historic resources, which require that "a resource shall be considered by the lead agency to be 'historically significant' if the resource meets the criteria for listing on the California Register of Historical Resources." These criteria state that a resource can be considered if it: I. Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California's history and cultural heritage. 2. Is associated with the lives of persons important to our past. 3. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of o type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values. 4. Has yielded,or may be likely to yield,information important in prehistory or history. r "Historic-Period Building Survey Report, Assessor's Parcel Numbers 513-081-002 to-006 and-023"prepared by CRM Tech, March 2006. City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 iniffal Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration 22 83 r INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION On this basis, the Monte Vista Hotel property is not considered historically significant.The historical investigation found that the historic integrity of the buildings has been significantly compromised by the alterations and additions made to the various structures, The result of this remodeling is that the property no longer relates to the pre- World War II period, which is the period during which the buildings would have a historic significance. The study did find, however, that the heightened historical interest in the property, as a component of the City's history,was significant, and should be mitigated. Also on this basis, the 'Strebe building is not considered historically significant. The historical analysis found that although several of the elements of the structure have the potential for significance, none is sufficient to make the building eligible for listing in the California Register of Historic Resources.The basis for this finding include: 1. Although a good example of Desert Modern architecture, the building is not a significant example of the style. 2. The building is not an important example of locally significant architects Albert Frey and John Porter Clark. 3. Unlike other buildings built and operated by Earl Strebe, who was a locally significant Civic leader, there is no close association between his life or career and this building. The historic survey further found that the property is not eligible for designation under the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance, because of the extensive remodeling and demolition which has occurred on the property. The study did find, however, that the heightened historical interest in the building, as a component of the City's history, was significant, and should be mitigated. The Historic Site Preservation Board and the City Council considered the findings of the historic survey,and found that no historic structures occurred on the site. Mitigation Measures MM V-T On-site commemorative displays of the Strebe building and the Monte Vista Hotel shall be incorporated into the proposed project's public spaces. MM V-2 Selected features of the Strebe building should be incorporated into the architectural design of the proposed project. With implementation of these mitigation measures, the impacts associated with historic resources on the site will be reduced to less than significant levels. b) No Impact. Due to the existing construction on the project site, the probability for significant archaeological resources on the project site is considered low. Should buried deposits be encountered during construction activities, activities shall be halted and a qualified archaeologist shall be notified to analyze the deposits. An archaeologist may be required to prepare a mitigotion plan for submission to the City prior to the resumption of work on the site. c) No impact. The City and project site are outside the shoreline of ancient Lake Cahulla. The site is underlain by alluvium which is not suitable for paleontological resources. No impact is expected to occur as a result of the proposed project. City of Palm Springs - "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" - Avgust 2006 Ini faf Study/Mitigated Negative Decimation 23 84 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION e d) Less than significant Impact. The project site is not known to have been used as a burial ground or cemetery in the past. It is not anticipated that any human remains will be encountered during construction of the proposed project. However, should any previously unidentified or unanticipated human remains be discovered during project construction, the proposed project would be subject to State law regarding the discovery and disturbance of human remains. This requires that law enforcement be notified, that the coroner determine the nature of the remains (historic or pre-historic, human or not), and that the coroner supervise the proper removal and potential re-burial of the remains. Therefore, impacts to human remains are expected to be less than significant. i I a i I City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/MHigafed Negative Dedaraffon 24 8 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION VI.

Setting The San Andreas Fault zone is the major fault in the Coachella Valley. Breaks associated with the Fault cover a generally northwest-southeast trending zone approximately 10 miles wide, north and east of the project site (Smith, Peroni &Fox, 1992). Soils at the site have been previously compacted for the existing construction. As previously stated,soils in the City consist of alluvial deposits which originated in the surrounding mountains. City of Po/m Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" . August 2006 /nlflal Sludy/Miffgoted Negative Declaraffon 25 86 t INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION Discussion of Impacts a) i) Less Than Significant Impact. The San Andreas Fault system is located approximately five miles northeast of the project site. The San Jacinto Fault System is approximately 6 rrules south of the project site. The project site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Therefore, active fault rupture is unlikely to occur at the project site. Compliance with Uniform Building Code (UBC) requirements imposed by the City will reduce potential impacts to a less than significant level. ii) Less Than Significant Impact. The project site will be subject to significant ground shaking during o significant earthquake on either the Son Andreas or the San Jacinto fault. The project shall be designed and constructed to conform to the California Building Code (CBC) requirements for Seismic Zone 4, as required by i the City. The implementation of these codes will assure that construction of the proposed project will result in less than significant impacts associated with ground shaking. i irl) No Impact. The project site does not occur in an area of shallow groundwater, and is located on primarily alluvial soils. The potential for liquefaction on the site is therefore considered negligible. In addition, the City will require site specific geotechnical analysis in conjunction with the submittal of building permits for the proposed project. This analysis will include analysis for the potential for liquefaction on the site. iv) No Impact The project site is flat, and is surrounded by lands which are equally flat. The foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains occur to the west of the site, approximately one mile away. There is no potential for landslide hazards on the project site. b) Less than Significant Impact. The site will be subject to soil erosion during demolition and grading. This erosion can be caused by either wind or rain storms. The City will require that the applicant prepare a PM10 Management Plan to address the potential for wind erosion at the site, as a standard requirement of project approval.The City also enforces the requirements of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), as a co- permttee with Riverside County. NPDES requirements include the implementation of best management practices (BMP's) to assure that during construction, sediment displaced by rain storms is not transported off the site. The City will require the implementation of necessary best management practices on the project site as a standard requirement of project approval. The City may also require, as a condition of approval, that the project install measures in accordance with applicable National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Best Management Practices (BMP's), including mechanical or other means for pre- treating storm water runoff during long term project operation, in compliance with the requirements of the Regional Water Quality Control Board of the time that the project is constructed. Impacts associated with soil erosion, therefore, are expected to be less than significant. c) No Impact. The potential for unstable soils at the site is negligible, The site is currently constructed upon, and has therefore been stable for a number of years. The City will require geotechnical analysis and structural engineering to accompany building plans {Hy of Palm Springs "4 one 4 Palm Canyon- August 2006 Initial Study/MHtgated Negative Declaration . 26 87 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION for the proposed project. These analyses will include requirements for excavation, re- compaction and fill at the project site.

City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 - - Initial Study/Millgated Negative Declaration 28 89 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION Setting The project site was fully developed, Buildings on the site were constructed between the 1920s and the 1990s. The time period for construction poses a potential that asbestos products were used In the existing buildings. Discussion of Impacts a)-b) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project includes the demolition of existing buildings built or remodeled between the 1920s and the 1990s. Due to the age of the buildings, the potential for asbestos in construction materials was suspected, and a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment was requested of the applicant. The applicant submitted test results from samples taken in all the structures within the project site. The tests indicated that asbestos-containing materials, including roof and floor Tile mastic, acoustical ceiling materials, insulation materials, Floor tile, and similar materials occurred. Asbestos is not considered hazardous until disturbed,when particles of the materials can affect the air.The removal of asbestos materials is highly regulated by regional and state agencies. Therefore, The removal of these materials is subject to the requirements of the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health. Prior to demolition, the City required the proper remediation of asbestos materials in conformance with state standards. This requirement assures that potential impacts associated with hazardous i asbestos removal were reduced to less than significant levels. Once operational, the residential units and commercial retail space users are likely to store small amounts of cleaning fluids and similar materials on the site. The City contracts with Palm Springs Disposal Services for the disposal of household hazardous waste.These programs include an ABOP (Acid, Batteries, Oil, Paint) facility, located immediately west of the airport on Alejo Road. In addition, regional household hazardous waste programs are held throughout the year in various Coachella Valley cities. These existing programs will assure that household hazardous waste is disposed of properly, and that potential impacts associated with these materials are less than significant. The long term operation of the project site is not expected to result in the transport,use or storage of hazardous materials. C) No Impact. There are no schools located or planned within one quarter mile of the project site. Further, the uses within the project are not expected to store or use hazardous materials.There will be no Impact to schools. d) No Impact, The project site is not listed as a potenfial hazardous materials dump or leak site on the Department of Toxic Substances' (DTSC) Hazardous Waste and Substance Site List (Cortese List). The subject property is not known to previously have been a hazardous materials site,and therefore, the proposed project is not expected to create a significant hazard to the public or the environment. e-f) No Impact. The Palm Springs International Airport is located two miles east of the project site. The project site is not located within the boundaries of the airport's land use plan. There are no private airstrips in Palm Springs. g) No Impact. The proposed project includes access through the site on the new Clovelly Street, as well as multiple access points to the underground parking garage.

The DWA pumps water from a number of wells throughout the area for domestic use. DWA also recharges groundwater through recharge basins located in the northwestern portion of the City. Sanitary sewer services at the project site are currently provided at the City treatment plant, and will continue to be so. The proposed project is located outside the boundaries of a flood zone, in an area of the City which is fully developed. The site is currently covered with impervious surfaces, including structures and parking lots. Very little if any percolation currently occurs on the site. . Discussion of Impacts a) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project will result in the demolition of existing structures and parking lots, and the construction of I IS residential units and over 24,000 square feet of commercial retail space. Demolition and construction at the site will be subject to NPDES regulations implemented by the City for all project construction activities. The applicant shall be required to implement these requirements,including the preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), which must include best management practices to assure that storm water leaving the site is not polluted, and does not impact water quality standards. The project will be required to meet all applicable water quality standards or waste discharge requirements of the City. These standard requirements will assure that impacts associated with water quality are less than significant. b) Less than Significant Impact. The proposed project site has had domestic water service for some time. It is expected that the use of domestic water will increase at the site, because of the increase in residential units. Commercial retail water use would be approximately equivalent to current conditions. Residential water use at the site previously consisted of the approximately 34 rooms of the Monte Vista Hotel. The proposed project will construct 118 condominiums on the site. Therefore, residential domestic water use will increase. However, due to its age, it is likely that fixtures and plumbing within the hotel were not efficient,and that water use was higher on a per unit basis than would occur in a modem structure. Based on a consumption rate of 4.13 acre feet/acre/year for condominiumsz, the residential units on the project site will generate a need for 16.6 acre feet of water per year, while the commercial space will generate a need for 0.99 acre feet of water annually, for a total water demand of 17.59 acre feet. 7 Water consumption factors 2004,Coachella Valley Water District.

As demonstrated in that document, DWA has sufficient supplies, or plans for additional supplies to service its service area through that period. Since the Plan is based on General Plan land uses, and the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan,the proposed project has been included in the DWA's assumptions for water use. DWA will continue to plan for the recharge and supplementation of groundwater to serve the City. In addition, the City requires the implementation of water conserving measures in all new development. These standards and policies will help to reduce potential impacts on water resources. Impacts are expected to be less than significant. c-d) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project site is fully developed. Al the time development initially occurred on the site, storm water planning was limited. The site is currently covered with impermeable surfaces consisting of structures and parking lots which drain to the surrounding streets. As previously stated, the project will be required to comply with the City's standards associated with surface water management, including the preparation of an NPDES permit for non-point pollution associated with construction activities. A SWPPP is also required 10 be prepared for this project 10 ensure compliance with NPDES. These requirements assure that storm water is not contaminated by on-site pollutants, silts or debris during construction. Compliance with NPDES requirements would reduce the potential of erosion and siltation during the short term construction and long term operation phases of the project. The Best Management Practices (BMPs) that are required in these documents will prevent construction pollutants from impacting storm water. A hydrology study will be required by the City Engineer for the proposed project to assure compliance with City standards relating to storm wafer. Additionally, the recreational areas within the site, which are designed 10 include landscaped zones, may actually increase the amount of permeable land on the project site, as compared to existing conditions. The City's standard requirements for the control of on and off site storm flows, both during construction and operation of the proposed project, will assure that impacts associated with storm water are reduced to less than significant levels. e) Less Than Significant Impact. The downtown area, as with most of the City, uses City streets for the conveyance of storm Flows. The proposed project, as a currently developed property, already drains 10 surrounding streets. The City Engineer will review project plans, including SWPPP and. NPDES best management practices, to assure that storm flows entering the streets do not exceed current volumes, and are not polluted. These are standard conditions of approval which will assure that impacts associated with storm flows are reduced to less than significant levels. f) No Impact. Potential impacts associated with storm water quality will be controlled through the implementation of existing City standard requirements. No other potential impacts to water quality will be created by development of the project site. No impacts are expected. g-h) No Impact. The project site is located in Flood Zone C, which designates areas that are not subject to flooding. The City Engineer will review hydrologic and hydraulic analyses for the project site to ensure that storm water generated on and off the site does not impact downstream facilities. No impacts associated with flood zones are expected.

Setting The proposed project is located in the City's downtown core, an area that was recently the subject of a planning effort to establish Downtown Design Guidelines, which have been j approved by the City Council. The site is fully developed, but structures within the project area are currently vacant.The project site consists of retail commercial structures and a hotel property.The entire site is designated and zoned Central Business District. Lands to the south and west are developed with commercial land uses. Lands to the north consist of Frances Stevens Park. Lands to the east include condominium units and commercial retail and office development. The City currently implements the Coachella Valley Fringe-toed Lizard Habitat Conservation Plan. The City has also approved the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan, whose implementation is pending permitting by state and federal agencies. Discussion of Impacts a) No Impact. The project site is currently fully developed with commercial retail and a hotel property.There is no established neighborhood on the project site. The intent of the project is to further the goals of the City's Redevelopment Plan, General Plan and Downtown Design Guidelines, and create a mixed use neighborhood on Palm Canyon Drive.There will be no impact on established community. b) No Impact The proposed project is designed, in part, to comply with the recently approved Downtown Design Guidelines. To than end, the project provides residential development in the central business district. It also creates an entry statement at Alejo Road, the northerly extension of the downtown core. Finally, it implements the additional height included in the Guidelines to create an urban space for downtown.The project is also consistent with the General Plan in its goal to revitalize the downtown area. The project's implementation of a Planned Development District will assure that the project is consistent with zoning ordinance requirements. No impacts associated with plans or policies are expected.

Setting The City of Palm Springs requires that the community noise equivalent level (CNEL) does not exceed 65 dB at the exterior Irving areas (rear yards) or 45 d8 at the habitable interior living area for residential land uses. The project area is located in the downtown core,which is an area of considerable activity, and which currently experiences higher noise levels. Existing noise levels at the project site currently range from 63.0 dBA CNEL to 65.8 d8A CNEL. The primary source of noise in and around the project site is that generated by vehicular traffic, as is the case with most of the City. An acoustical study was prepared for the proposed project to assess both impacts of existing and future noise on the project, and the project's contribution to area noise IeveIS3. The study's findings are summarized below. 3"Roel Development Preriminary/EiR Acoustical Study,"prepared by RK Engineering,June 2006. City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration 38 3 3 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION Discussion of Impacts a) Less Than Significant Impact with Mitigation incorporated. The project site will result in temporary noise impacts associated with demolition and construction, as well as long term noise impacts associated with operation of the project. The most intense short term noise generating activities at the site would be those associated with grading activities. The peak noise level for most of the equipment that would be used during construction ranges from 70 to 95 dBA at a distance of 50 feet. A reduction of 6 dBA can be expected with each doubling of distance, so that i1 can be expected that the noise levels at the condominiums on the east side of Indian Canyon, approximately 80 feet away,would experience noise levels ranging from 66.5 to 91.5 dBA during construction activities immediately adjacent to the west side of Indian Canyon Drive. As grading equipment is mobile, it would be expected that these noise levels would be of short duration, and would not exceed the City's noise ordinance. The City's Municipal Code prohibits construction before 7:00 AM or after 8:00 PM, Monday through Friday, before 8:00 AM or after 6:00 PM on Saturdays, and at any time on Sunday or any federal holiday. Compliance with these restrictions and the mitigation measures identified below would reduce construction noise impacts to less than significant levels. In the long term, two potential noise impacts were analyzed: the noise environment on the project site for residential units, which are considered sensitive receptors; and that noise level increase resulting from the addition of project traffic to area roadways. On- site impacts are analyzed below. Off site noise levels are discussed under item (c), below. On-Site Noise Levels The existing noise levels at the project site range from 63.0 to 65.8 dBA CNEL. In order to determine the potential noise levels on the project site, noise modeling was conducted using the project site plan, to determine the noise levels at the patios or balconies of the affected units. The units on Alejo Road and Indian Canyon have the potential to experience unacceptable noise levels (in excess of 65 dBA CNEL on their patios or balconies. As a result, noise impacts will be potentially significant, and require mitigation. The buIldings affected,and the barrier height required, is illustrated in the Table below.

City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006. Initial Study/Millgaled Negative Deciaroflon 39 100 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION As demonstrated in the Table, exterior noise levels for buildings along Alejo and Indian Canyon con be reduced to less than significant levels with the implementation of mitigation measures. Interior noise levels are required to be 45 dBA or less for all residential units. The noise protection provided by buildings and windows results in a noise reduction of 12 dBA with the windows open, and 20 dBA with the windows closed (from the noise levels shown in Table 6). With the windows open, buildings depicted in Table 6 will experience noise levels in excess of 45 dBA. Even with a "windows closed" condition, the units in buildings A, Bl, B2 and D will still experience interior noise levels in excess of 45 dBA. In order to achieve an interior noise level of 45 dBA in the units in buildings A, B1, B2 and D, mitigation measures are required. Mitigation Measures In order to assure that noise impacts are reduced to less than significant levels, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented. MM XI-1 Construction activities on-site shall occur only between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., Monday-Friday, and 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m, on Saturdays, as specified by the Palm Springs Noise Ordinance (11.74.041). The Construction Site Regulations (Chapter 8.04.220) also Identify specific limits on hours of operation for construction equipment as not between 5 p.m. and 8 a.m. if the noise produced Is of such intensity or quality that it disturbs the peace and quiet of any other person of normal sensitivity. MM XI-2 All construction equipment, faced or mobile, shall be equipped with properly operating and maintained mufflers and the engines shall be equipped with shrouds.. MM XI-3 All construction equipment shall be in proper working order and maintained in a proper state of tune to reduce backfires. MM XI.4 Stockpiling and vehicle staging areas shall be located as far as practical from the northeast comer of the site. MM XI-5 Parking, refueling and servicing operations for all heavy equipment and on- site construction vehicles shall be located as for as practical from the northeast comer of the site. MM XI-6 Stationary equipment should be placed such that emitted noise is directed away from noise-sensitive receptors. MM XI-7 Noise barriers shall be constructed for all units located in buildings A, B1, B2 and D, as depicted in Table 6. The barrier's weight shall be a minimum of 3.5 pounds per square foot of face area, with no decorative cutouts or line of sight openings between the shielded areas and roadways. The following materials may be used: masonry block; stucco veneer over wood framing; 1- inch tongue and groove wood of sufficient weight per square foot; '/4 inch thick glass or other transparent material with sufficient weight per square foot; earthen berm (patios only).All gaps,except for weep holes shall be filled. City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Iniffd Study/Millgated Negative Declaration 40 101 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION MM XI-8 All units in buildings A, B1, B2 and D will be constructed with mechanical ventilation, as specified in the "Roel Development Preliminary/EIR Acoustical Study," prepared by RK Engineering, to allow for a "windows closed" condition. MM XI-9 The final acoustical study for the proposed project shall include interior noise analysis and recommendations for upgraded windows to assure that interior noise levels in any of the units in buildings A, Bl, B2 and D are maintained at 45 dBA or better. b) Less Than Significant Impact.* Ground borne vibration may occur during demolition and . construction of the project. However, this would be short term in nature and is not expected to be a significant impact. In addition, any potential impacts would be reduced by implementation of best management construction practices. Operation of proposed project will not result in exposure of persons to groundborne vibration. c) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project will generate noise from the vehicle trips it will add to area roadways. The acoustical study considered these trips, when added to existing conditions, to determine whether the proposed project would significantly increase noise levels on area roadways. Existing, year 2007 and year 2025 noise levels were modeled for the proposed project, based on the project traffic study°. The findings of the noise modeling are depicted in the Tables below.

Setting The City of Palm Springs population grew from 40,181 to 42,807 from 1990 to 2000, This represents a 6.5 increase over the ten year period.In 2006, the City's population is estimated at 46,437, an increase of 8.5% in five years. Housing units increased from 30,517 to 30,823 from 1990 to 2000, and to 32,841 in 2006. The City has an average of 2.1 persons per household. I The downtown area has in the past included limited housing opportunities. Many commercial buildings built prior to the 1970s included apartments on the second floor. Discussion of Impacts a) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project will add 118 units to the City's housing inventory. Given the rapid growth in population and housing units in the last 6 years, this addition is consistent. Based on current household size, the proposed project will add 248 persons to the City's population. This represents an increase of 0.06%, and will not be a significant increase in population. b, c) No Impact. The existing structures' on the property have provided some transient housing, at the Monte Vista Hotel. However, the hotel had limited function in the last several years, and with only 34 rooms did not represent a substantial housing stock. The existing structures are currently vacant, including the hotel, and have been for at least six months. No one will be displaced by the proposed project. Impacts are expected to be less than significant. City of Paim Springs _ "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 lnNot Sludy7Mtiigated Negative Declaration 43 104 INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION ' XIII.

The Palm Springs Fire Department will provide service to the proposed project site. The Department currently operates five fire stations located throughout the city.The station closest to the project site is station #441, located at 277 North Indian Canyon, less than one mile from the project site.The station houses one 75' fodder truck, one medical response vehicle,and one Quick Attack vehicle. The station is manned on a 24 hour basis with one Captain, one Engineer. and one Firefighter/Emergency Medical Technician. Also available to serve the project site are station #443, located at 590 E. Racquet Club Road, about two miles from the project site, and station #442, located at 300 N. El Cielo, also about two miles from the project site. The City has established maximum fire response time at five minutes. Areas located outside of the 5 minute threshold are required by the City's Fire protection Plan to install automatic fire sprinklers. Residential fire flows are 1,250 gallons per minute (gpm) and commercial/industrial flows are 1.500 gpm. The Department currently has an Insurance Office Rating (ISO) of 3. The Department receives funding for operational and capital improvements through the City's General Fund (Smith, Peron! & Fox, 1992). Police Protection. The City of Palm Springs Police Department provides law enforcement services within the City Limits. The Department has a Services Division and an Operations Division. The Department does not have a standard ratio of officers to population, but does have a desired response time of 6 minutes for emergency calls and 20 minutes for non- emergency calls. The Department is funded from the City's General Fund (Smith, Peroni & Fox, 1992). Schools. The Palm Springs Unified School District (PSUSD) provides educational services for grades K-12 in the City of Palm Springs. Currently,there are 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school and 1 City of Palm Springs "4 One 4 Palm Canyon" August 2006 Initial Study/Mfltgated Negative Decforoffon 44 ��rJ INITIAL STUDY/NEGATIVE DECLARATION high school in the City. PSUSD receives funding from school facilities fees, state funding, and local funding. PSUSD is authorized to collect school facilities fees as provided for in Government Code Section 53080 et. seq. and 65995 et seq. in the amount of $2.35 per square foot of residential development. Parks. The City of Palm Springs has seven parks located on approximately 140-acres within its boundaries. These include Desert Highland Park, Victoria Park, Ruth Hardy Park, Sunrise Park, Badsto Park, Demuth Park and Palm Springs dog park. The City has a standard park ratio of 5 acres of parkland for every 1,000 population as required by City Ordinance 1632. Discussion of impacts a) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project will generate additional need for fire protection for the City Fire Department, but is not expected to require additional services beyond those currently available. The site is currently built out, and the Fire Department has been providing service to the site for a number of years. The addition of the residential component of the project, however, is likely to marginally increase the numbers of calls made to the project site. The Fire Department will continue to review project plans to assure that the site design can be effectively serviced in case of emergency, and will provide conditions of approval for the project.The City includes, as a standard condition of approval, requirements that projects participate in Community Facilities District(s) to assure that the costs associated with added emergency services are recovered. This standard requirement will assure that impacts to fire services are reduced to less than significant levels. b) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project will generate additional need for police protection, because of the addition of the residential component to the project site. As with fire protection, the existing properties on the site have generated a need for police service for a number of years. The Police Department will be provided building plans for review prior to the approval of the project, to assure That defensible space is provided within the project boundaries. The City includes, as a standard condition of approval, requirements that projects participate in Community Facilities District(s) to assure that the costs associated with added police services are recovered.This standard requirement will assure that impacts to police services are reduced to less than significant levels. c) Less Than Significant Impact.School services for the project site are provided by the Palm Springs Unified School District (PSUSD). The project proponent will be required to pay the mandated school fees in place at the time that building permits are issued.The payment of These fees is designed to offset the additional students generated by the proposed project. This fee will assure that the impacts to schools are reduced to less than significant levels. d) Less Than Significant Impact. The City has implemented a "Quimby" or park fee ordinance to assure that adequate park space is provided for future residents. The project proponent will be required to pay the park fees in place at the time that building permits are issued. This fee will assure that the Impacts to City parks are reduced to less than significant levels.

Setting The project site is surrounded by roadways on three sides. North Palm Canyon and North Indian Canyon provide cross-town access through the City. Alejo Road is a local roadway which provides east-west access through the project area. A Traffic Impact Analysis was prepared for the proposed projects. The study was conducted based on coordination and scoping with the City Engineer. A total of 10 intersections were studied. Because of the project site's location in the downtown core, existing and future conditions were evaluated for typical weekday morning and evening peak hours, but also for Thursday night conditions (during Village Fest), and for Saturday morning and afternoon conditions. During Village Fest, Palm Canyon is closed to traffic from Amado Road to Baristo Road,south of the project site.The findings of the study ore summarized below.
