City Attorney Summary The current provisions of the City's Zoning Code allow churches in certain zones and do not allow churches in the CBD zone. This Ordinance eliminates the current definition of"churches" and adds a new definition of "religious institutions," expressly allows religious institutions in specified zones either as a matter of right or subject to a land use permit, and allows religious institutions in the CBD zone subject to a conditional use permit. This Ordinance also provides that new assembly uses that were permitted in the CBD zone as a matter of right will now be permitted subject to a conditional use permit. This Ordinance also authorizes the Director of Planning Services to initiate amendments to the text of the City's Zoning Code. THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, FINDS: A. The adoption of this Ordinance is considered a "project" pursuant to the terms of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), and the Council has determined the adoption of this Ordinance is Categorically Exempt from the provisions of CEQA under Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act because the proposed zone text amendment only provides insignificant changes to the title and provides for increased locations for religious institutions, including churches, and allows staff to initiate amendments to the City's Zoning Code. B. A notice of public hearing of the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Springs, California for Case 5.1306 ZTA (Zone Text Amendment) was given in 03 Ordinance No. 1841 Page 2 accordance with applicable law and on October 23, 2013 and December 11, 2013, public hearings of the Planning Commission were held to review this Ordinance, and the Planning Commission reviewed and considered all of the evidence presented in connection with the hearings on the Ordinance, including, but not limited to, the staff report, and all written and oral testimony presented, and recommended approval thereof. C. A public hearing of the City Council of the City of Palm Springs, California for Case 5.1306 ZTA was given in accordance with applicable law and on January 15, 2014, a public hearing of the City Council was held to review this Ordinance, and the City Council reviewed and considered all of the evidence presented in connection with the hearing on the Ordinance, including, but not limited to, the staff report, and all written and oral testimony presented. D. The Ordinance is consistent with the intent of the Zoning Code, because, according to Section 91.00.00 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code, the Zoning Code is adopted for "the purpose of promoting and protecting the public health, safety and welfare of the people of the city of Palm Springs and to provide for the social, physical and economic advantages resulting from comprehensive and orderly planned use of land resources ..."; and the Ordinance modifies the existing zoning land use categories to allow for expanded opportunities for religious institutions to locate in the City and provides an additional method to initiate amendments.
