DATE: February 2, 2005 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Planning Services CASE NO 5.1020 PD 304, TTM 31940 — APPLICATION BY PALM SPRINGS MODERN HOMES IV, LLC TO SUBDIVIDE A 4.97 ACRE SITE INTO FORTY-THREE (43) LOTS FOR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AND ADDITIONAL LETTERED LOTS "A" — "I" AND A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF FORTY-THREE (43) DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES AND ASSOCIATED OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS, INCLUDING APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SPECIAL (MODIFIED) 50 FOOT RIGHT-OF- WAY FOR ZANJERO ROAD, LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF RACQUET CLUB ROAD AND ZANJERO ROAD, ZONE R-2, SECTION 3, APN 504140005 / 504140006 / 504140015 RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve Planned Development District 304 and Tentative Tract Map 31940, including approval of the proposed special (modified) 50 foot right-of-way for Zanjero Road, subject to Conditions of Approval (Exhibit A). SUMMARY Palm Springs Modern Homes IV, LLC proposes subdividing a 4.97 acre site into forty-three (43) lots and additional lettered lots "A" — "I" and a Planned Development District (PD) designation for the construction of forty-three (43) single-family residences. The project consists of small lot two story detached single-family dwellings. Each home fronts on a private street and the subdivision is proposed to be gated. The project site is located at the northwest corner of Racquet Club Road and Zanjero Road. On December 8, 2004, the Planning Commission voted 5-1-1 (abstention) to recommend approval of proposed Planned Development 304 and Tentative Tract Map 31940 subject to Conditions of Approval (Exhibit A). The Planning Commission found that the proposed project was consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance and was compatible with the neighborhood. The Design Review Committee (DRC) reviewed and recommended approval of the project on October 11, 2004. The DRC determined that the proposed architecture and site planning was appropriate for Palm Springs and that the mass and scale of the two story buildings are compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. A neighborhood meeting attended by eight people was held on October 8, 2004. Those attending felt the proposed project would benefit the neighborhood and they did not request any changes to the architecture or site planning. Neighbors were satisfied that Zanjero would be widened sufficiently to handle the added traffic generated by the proposed project. Staff believes development of the infill site with small lot single-family residential homes is positive for this neighborhood as it transitions from older to newer development. This project would add housing options for the community. Additionally, new households would help provide q 1 needed market support for the struggling neighborhood shopping center at the corner of Racquet Club Road and Palm Canyon Drive. Zanjero Road is classified as a collector street on the General Plan Circulation Map. Collector streets are required to have 60 feet of right-of-way with a curb-to-curb (paved) width of 40 feet. The applicant has requested a special or modified 50 foot instead of the standard 60 foot right- of-way street cross-section for the Zanjero frontage of the project. The proposed curb to curb width or street paving would be the standard 40 feet. The City Council on December 17, 2003 amended the General Plan to allow special (modified) street cross-sections in certain situations. Planning and Engineering staff believe the 10 foot reduced right-of-way is sufficient since the applicants are acquiring a 13 foot easement along the west side of Zanjero Road from the Whitewater Mutual Water Company. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the proposed special (modified) 50 foot right-of-way for Zanjero. The site's General Plan land use designation is M-15 (Medium-Density Residential). This designation allows traditional single-family homes, garden apartments, mobilehome parks, multiple-family, hotels and similar residential dwellings. The proposed project's 8.7 dwelling units per gross acre is lower than the M-15 threshold density of twelve (12) and the maximum density of fifteen (15) dwelling units per acre. The existing zoning designation of R-2 (Limited Multiple-Family Residential Zone) is intended to provide for the development of medium-density multiple-family residential uses. The applicant has proposed a Planned Development District (PD) for the project site to allow variations from the provisions of the existing R-2 (Limited Multiple Family Residential Zone) standards for minimum lot area, lot dimensions, and front and side yard setbacks. For a detailed comparison of proposed PD 304 development standards with the R-2 requirements for multiple-family residential projects see page 2 of the attached Planning Commission staff report. Staff requested that the applicant design the approach to the gated entrance in order that vehicles, unable to pass the gate, can make a U-turn at the gate, rather than having to back out onto Cortez Road (condition 25). Staff also requested the applicant redesign some of the private driveway turns such that Streets "E" & "F" intersect at a 90 degree angle and that Street "E" be constructed with a modified "knuckle" at its 90 degree turn to provide vehicular sight distance (conditions 21 and 22). The Planning Commission recommended conditions include these requirements. The applicant has agreed to modify the proposed project to incorporate these conditions. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15332 — Infill Development Projects (Class 32). The proposed development is less than five acres in an area of the City substantially surrounded by urban uses and can be readily served by all required utilities and public utilities.

Director of Planning Services CASE NO 5.1020 PD 304, TTM 31940 — APPLICATION BY PALM SPRINGS MODERN HOMES IV, LLC TO SUBDIVIDE A 4.97 ACRE SITE INTO FORTY-THREE (43) LOTS FOR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AND A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF FORTY-THREE (43) DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES AND ASSOCIATED OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS, LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF RACQUET CLUB ROAD AND ZANJERO ROAD, ZONE R-2, SECTION 3, APN 504140005 RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of Planned Development District 304 and Tentative Tract Map 31940, subject to conditions of approval. BACKGROUND: Palm Springs Modern Homes IV, LLC proposes subdividing a 4.97 acre site into forty-three (43) lots and a Planned Development District (PD) designation for the construction of forty-three (43) single-family residences. The project consists of small lot two story detached single-family dwellings. Each home fronts on a private street and the subdivision is proposed to be gated. The project site is located at the northwest corner of Racquet Club Road and Zanjero Road. The site's General Plan land use designation is M-15 (Medium-Density Residential). This designation allows traditional single-family homes, garden apartments, mobilehome parks, multiple-family, hotels and similar residential dwellings. The proposed project's 8.7 dwelling units per gross acre is lower than the M-15 threshold density of twelve (12) and the maximum density of fifteen (15) dwelling units per acre. The existing zoning designation of R-2 (Limited Multiple-Family Residential Zone) is intended to provide for the development of medium-density multiple-family residential uses. Single-family dwellings are allowed subject to R-1-A zone standards. A minimum of three thousand (3,000) square feet of lot area is required for each dwelling unit. Therefore, the R-2 zone allows approximately 14.5 dwelling units per acre. The applicant has filed for a Planned Development District (PD)for the project site to allow variations from certain R-2 zone standards. Development surrounding the project includes single-family dwellings to the north, condominiums to the east, single-family homes and vacant land to the south and a church to the west. A neighborhood shopping center is located nearby at the intersection of Racquet Club Road and Palm Canyon Drive. The zoning of adjacent property is R-G-A (garden apartment and cluster residential) to the north, R-2 (limited multiple-family residential) to the east and south and C-1 (retail business) and P-D (Planned Development) to the west. The Design Review Committee reviewed the project on October 11, 2004, and recommended approval. q�1 ANALYSIS: According to the General Plan (page 1-20), Planned Development Districts (PDDs) are designated to provide for various types of land use to be combined in compatible relationship with each other. It is the intent of a PDD to be in compliance with the General Plan and good zoning practices while allowing certain desirable departures from the strict provisions of the specific zone classifications. The applicant has proposed a Planned Development District (PD) District for the project site to allow variations from the provisions of the existing R-2 (Limited Multiple Family Residential Zone) standards for minimum lot area, lot dimensions, front and side yard setbacks, etc. Although single-family dwellings in the R-2 zone are subject to the R-1-A zone provisions, since the proposed project is a planned development with cluster housing, the applicable standards should be the R-2 requirements for multiple-family residential. The table below compares proposed PD 304 with the R-2 requirements for multiple-family residential projects.

Building height 24 ft./2 - story maximum 23'-2" bldg./25'-2"with A/C screen Each dwelling unit has a two car garage and the required 12 guest parking spaces are provided on two sides of the central detention basin open space area. The Design Review Committee (DRC) reviewed the project on October 11, 2004. The DRC determined that the proposed architecture and site planning was appropriate for Palm Springs and that the mass and scale of the two story buildings are compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The DRC recommended approval of the project with the following conditions: a swimming pool shall be provided on each lot, roof screening of mechanical equipment is to be painted to match the buildings and street trees shall be planted along the Racquet Club Road frontage. These DRC recommended conditions have been included in the staff recommended conditions. The Housing Element of the General Plan contains a number of goals, objectives and polices that encourage infill development and a variety of housing types to assist in meeting the q �� community's diverse of housing needs. Some of these infill and housing goals, objectives and policies follow: 4C A variety of housing types to meet the diversity of needs throughout the City's residential neighborhoods. (page 1-122) 4.3c The City shall encourage distribution of small, affordable projects throughout the City rather than a concentration in one neighborhood. (page 1-125) 4.3.7 The City shall encourage infill development. (page 1-126) Staff believes development of the infill site with small lot single-family residential homes is very positive for this neighborhood as it transitions from older to newer development. This project would add moderate housing options for the community. Additionally, new households would help provide needed market support for the struggling neighborhood shopping center at the corner of Racquet Club Road and Palm Canyon Drive. Because the lots are small and there is not other public open space in the area, the central landscaped detention basin area could be enhanced with additional landscaping and with amenities such as seating and outdoor eating features. Additionally, the shade structures that cover the guest parking adjacent to the retention basin could be softened with the addition of vines The Planning Commission has also indicated concern about gated residential complexes, although there is presently not a City policy that restricts them. The DRC did not see a need for additional open space or amenities. Additionally, the DRC did not have a problem with the retention basin as presently designed or the proposed gate; however, they recommended the addition of street trees to improve the view along Racquet Club Road. Because the distance between the Racquet Club Road and the proposed backyard walls is only 18 feet, staff believes special emphasis should be placed on trees and shrubs that will provide dense landscaping to enhance the streetscape. Staff has included a condition that addresses the need for densely landscaping the Racquet Club Road streetscape. Presently the only pedestrian access to and from the site is via private gates or the main gated entrance. Staff has suggested a condition that requires resident only pedestrian access gates as part of the proposed emergency gates at the end of private streets "E" and "F". A neighborhood meeting attended by eight people was held on October 8, 2004. Those attending felt the proposed project would benefit the neighborhood and they did not request any changes to architecture or site planning. Neighbors were satisfied that Zanjero would be widened sufficiently to handle the added traffic generated by the proposed project. There was, however, a request for consideration of installing a stop sign on the right side of Zanjero where it extends from Cabrillo Road to Zanjero Road opposite the northeast corner of the project. The Engineering Department has addressed this request by suggesting a condition that requires a stop sign on Cortez Road at Zanjero Road. (Engineering condition 50). Zanjero Road is classified as a collector street on the General Plan Circulation Map. Collector streets are required to have 60 feet of right-of-way with a curb-to-curb (paved) width of 40 feet. The applicant has requested a special or modified 50 foot instead of the standard 60 foot right- of-way street cross-section for the Zanjero frontage of the project. The proposed curb to curb width or street paving would be the standard 40 feet. The City Council on December 17, 2003 amended the General Plan to allow special (modified) street cross-sections in certain situations: 7.1.5 Cross-section standards may be modified by the Planning Commission and /or City Council to take into consideration the need for special right-of-way widths, street improvements or pavement widths: where property cannot be feasibly acquired and/or within the downtown to facilitate traffic calming and public parking facilities and/or where the street will scar the landscape due to the nature of the terrain and/or to create area needed to provide linear parks, bicycle or other alternative transportation facilities and/or achieve an urban design and special street program such as traffic calming programs, pedestrian oriented streetscapes, bike or alternative transportation paths, and/or other coordinated programs as proposed; or in response to a specific plan or planned development district. In addition, the determination of the Planning Commission and/or City Council shall conclude that there are no significant impacts on health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Palm Springs. Planning and Engineering staff believe the 10 foot reduced right-of-way is sufficient since the applicants are acquiring a 13 foot easement along the west side of Zanjero Road from the Whitewater Mutual Water Company. Therefore staff recommends approval of the proposed special (modified) 50 foot right-of-way for Zanjero. The Engineering staff has requested that the applicant design the approach to the gated entrance in order that delivery trucks, unable to pass the gate, can make a U-turn at the gate, rather than having to back out onto Cortez Road. The Engineering staff would also prefer that the applicant redesign some of the private driveway turns such that Streets "E" & "F" intersect at a 90 degree angle and that Street "E" be constructed with a modified "knuckle" at its 90 degree turn to provide vehicular sight distance. The recommended conditions include these requirements. The applicant is opposed to these conditions because of the impact on one or more lots and the model(s) that can be placed on them. These Engineering Department requirements reduce the size of and potentially deepen the open space/retention basin. This is of concern to staff, because as presently proposed, the retention basin varies in depth from approximately 4.5 to 11.5 feet when measured from top of paving to the bottom of the retention basin, depending on what part of the adjoining sloped private street you are measuring from. Another way to accommodate these Engineering Department requirements is to reduce the number of units in the project. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS AND NOTIFICATION: The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15332 — Infill Development Projects (Class 32). The proposed development is less than five acres in an area of the City substantially surrounded by urban uses and can be readily served by all required utilities and public utilities. Attachments 1.

THE CITY COUNCIL HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: Pursuant to CEQA, the City Council finds that the project is categorically exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) section 15332 — Infill Development Projects (Class 32). The proposed development is less than five acres in an area of the City substantially surrounded by urban uses and can be readily served by all required utilities and public utilities. Section 2: Pursuant to Zoning Ordinance Section 94.03.00, the City Council finds that: a. The use applied for at the location set forth in the application is properly one for which a Planned Development District is authorized by the City's zoning ordinance. Pursuant to the Zoning Ordinance for the underlying R-2 zone, small lot detached single- family residential development(single family residences) is a permitted use. b. The said use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, and is in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the General Plan, and is not detrimental to the existing or future uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located. The project is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Map, including permitted densities. C. With the proposed Planned Development District standards, the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate said use, including yards, setbacks, walls or fences, landscaping and other features required in order to adjust said use to those existing or permitted future uses of land in the neighborhood. This Planned Development District application proposes to provide specific development standards for the project as well as a preliminary development plan as provided for by Zoning Code Section 94.03.00. Approval by the Planning Commission and City Council of the preliminary development will constitute approval of the Preliminary Planned Development District. The proposed project is within allowable density of the underlying R-2 zone and the General Plan designation. 0\ (00;W d. 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. The proposed project will contribute to improvement of the existing street system that will serve the site, and with said improvements, the public street system will be adequate to carry the type and quantity of traffic to be generated by the proposed use. The project will also contribute to providing pedestrian connectivity in the neighborhood, through the extension of sidewalks on Racquet Club Road, Zanjero Road and Cortez Road. Zanjero Road is classified as a collector street on the General Plan Circulation Map. Collector streets are required to have 60 feet of right-of-way with a curb-to-curb (paved) width of 40 feet. The applicant has requested a special or modified 50 foot instead of the standard 60 foot right-of-way street cross-section for the Zanjero frontage of the project. The proposed curb to curb width or street paving would be the standard 40 feet. The 10 foot reduced right-of-way is sufficient since the applicants are acquiring a 13 foot easement along the west side of Zanjero Road from the Whitewater Mutual Water Company. e. The conditions to be imposed are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare, of the existing neighborhood in which this project is situated. The conditions imposed are necessary to bring the project into compliance with applicable zoning, building, and other regulations to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare of the existing neighborhood in which this project is located. Section 3: Pursuant to 9.62.010 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code and Section 92.01.00 et. sec. of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council finds that: a. The proposed Tentative Tract Map is consistent with all applicable general and specific plans. The proposed Tentative Tract Map is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Residential M-15 (Medium - Density Residential) General Plan designation which governs the subject property as well as all property adjacent to the subject site. b. The design and improvements of the proposed Tentative Tract Map are consistent with the underlying R-2 zone in which the property is located. The proposed project is consistent with existing development in the vicinity. The proposed small lot detached single family residences are consistent with existing residential development in the vicinity of the proposed project. C. The site is physically suited for this type of development. The project is surrounded on all sides by development. The proposed project is consistent with sound planning practices, utilizes existing infrastructure in the area, and continues the C\ to existing development pattern. The project site and each lot contain adequate developable building area. The proposed infill project is surrounded by development. There are no bodies of water, ravines, or significant topographic features on the subject property. d. The site is physically suited for the proposed density of development. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The site's General Plan land use designation is M-15 (Medium-Density Residential). This designation allows traditional single-family homes, garden apartments, mobilehome parks, multiple-family, hotels and similar residential dwellings. The proposed project's 8.7 dwelling units per gross acre is lower than the General Plan's M-15 threshold density of twelve (12) and the maximum density of fifteen (15) dwelling units per acre. The project is compatible with surrounding development which includes single-family dwellings to the north, condominiums to the east, single-family homes and vacant land to the south and a church and neighborhood shopping center to the west. Development of the infill site with small lot single-family residential homes is positive for this neighborhood as it transitions from older to newer development. This project would add housing options for the community. Additionally, new households would help provide needed market support for the struggling neighborhood shopping center at the corner of Racquet Club Road and Palm Canyon Drive. e. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish, wildlife, or their habitats. There are no bodies of water on the subject property and therefore no fish will be disturbed. There will be minimum impact on wildlife on their habitats. The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15332 — Infill Development Projects (Class 32). The proposed development is less than five acres in an area of the City substantially surrounded by urban uses and can be readily served by all required utilities and public utilities. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that, based upon the foregoing, the City Council hereby approves PD-304 and Tentative Tract Map 31940, subject to those conditions set forth in the attached Exhibit A, which are to be satisfied prior to the issuance of building permits unless otherwise specified.
