TO: City Council
FROM: Director of Planning and Building
TTM 30574- 5.0908- PD- 276 -APPLICATION BY ARCHITECTURAL PROPERTIES FOR A
TENTATIVE TRACT MAP AND PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT FOR THE
SUBDIVISION OF 35,554 SQUARE FEET OF LAND INTO 5 LOTS LOCATED AT 772
PRESCOTT DRIVE, R-2 ZONE, SECTION 10.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve Tentative Tract Map 30574 and Case 5.0908.-PD-276 for the
subdivision of 35,554 square feet of land into 5 lots for a multi-family residential complex,
located at 772 Prescott Drive. The applicant is Architectural Properties owned by Allen Miller.
SUMMARY:
The applicant is seeking a Tentative Tract Map to subdivide 35,554 square feet of land into 4
lots and 1 common area lot and approval of a Planned Development District to allow the
development of four residential units and associated improvements. The proposed map is
consistent with the design criteria of the Planned Development District. Planning Commission
recommended approval of the proposal as submitted, leaving City Council to decide whether the
applicant will have to underground all existing overhead utilities. The current conditions of
approval requires all proposed utility lines and adjacent utility lines to be undergrounded. Based
upon Planning Commission direction staff has evaluated the existing conditions and has
determined that compliance with Engineering Condition #21 may make the project technically
and economically infeasible. Staff suggests that the City Council require undergrounding of the
north property line overhead utility and that the requirement along the east property line be
waived since it may be technically and economically infeasible.
BACKGROUND:
The project site currently consists of one (1) lot and is designated as R-2 (Limited Multiple-
Family Residential Zone) in the General Plan. The proposed units are 2,270 square feet each.
Surrounding zones consist of R-1 zone to the west. R-2 to the north, R-1 to the south, and C-1
(Central business zone) to the east. Surrounding uses include single family residential to the
west, and south, a commercial lot to the east, and a church to the north.
The proposed homes will be one (1) story with a maximum height of fifteen (15)feet and 2,270
square feet each. The applicant is proposing eight (8) covered parking spaces and two (2)
open parking spaces totaling 10 for the project. Each unit is proposed with a 485 square foot
two (2) car garage and a decorative drive. All units will include a pool and spa. An existing six
(6)foot high block wall which will be stuccoed to match the proposal borders the property. Total
building area for the site is 11,020 square feet comprising of 31% of the total lot area. Paving,
including streets and drive is proposed at 4,204 square feet and equals 12% of the total lot
area. Landscaping and open space are proposed at 20,330 square feet or 57% of the total
proposed development lot area.
An access agreement with the adjacent property owner(Church)to the north, for the City of
A;)�
Palm Springs Fire Department to access the site will be required.
The Public Works Department is recommending that full street improvements along the Prescott
Drive frontage be installed, including the installation of improvements such as curbs, gutters,
and sidewalks.
The current conditions of approval requires all proposed utility lines and adjacent utility lines to
be undergrounded. At the public hearing the applicant testified that undergrounding all of the
adjacent overhead utilities would be technically and economically infeasible for a four unit
project. Existing overhead utilities exist on the north and east property lines. At the Planning
Commission direction staff met with the applicant, evaluated existing conditions, and determined
that undergrounding the east property line utilities would be technically infeasible without
financial and other assistance form adjacent property owners. These overhead utilities have
multiple over head service connections and undergrounding would require new underground
service connections and meters to serve several existing buildings. The cost of such
undergrounding would likely be $300 to $500 per linear foot or up to $263,000. The north
property line overhead line can be undergrounded without hardship and the developer has
agreed to so do. Staff suggests that City Council revise Engineering Condition Number 21 to
require undergrounding of the north property line utility line only. This action would be
consistent with past City Council actions for similar multifamily residential projects.
The Planned Development is proposing modification of the R-2 property development standards
for required building separation between units. Fifteen feet is the required separation between
units. The applicant is proposing six (6)foot eight (8) inches separation between each unit, and
three (3)feet four (4) inches to side property line. This separation proposal between structures
and proposed property line meets the Uniform Building Code. Planning Commission supports
this proposed modification due to the project location, parcel size, and parcel configuration. The
proposed project creates an appropriate transition between R-1 and commercial zones and has
a scale that fits in the neighborhood.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS AND NOTIFICATION:
This action is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) per section 15332, whereas the proposed Tentative Tract Map meets the conditions
outlined for In-Fill Development Projects.

interests. He reviewed erial photographs of th roperty location.
Chairman Klatchko ened the Public Hearing.
Mr. David Hac r, Hacker Engineering, addressed the Planning mmission to state that staff is
correct—the' tent of the Tentative Parcel Map is to partition partial int is of property to different
owners.

single-story villas with pools, garages with decorative drives, and property line walls — a crisp
modern design with a formal landscape plan consistent with architecture.
Chairman Klatchko opened the Public Hearing.
Mr.Allen Miller,Architectural Properties, addressed the Planning Commission to state that he and
the other principal, Mr. Andrew Karpiak, have reviewed the.Conditions of Approval and would like

requiring the undergrounding of utilities would have a severe financial impact upon the project to

the point that the project would be cancelled. He stated that, since the power poles serve property
across the street from the subject site, he understood that they could remain in use.
Mr. Chris Selene, WWCOT Architectural Planning, project architect, addressed the Planning
Commission to ask that Engineering Condition No. 7 be clarified so that the 19' measurement
begins at the back of the sidewalk in order to align parking stalls with architecture of buildings. He
stated that, regarding Engineering Condition No. 9, the project engineer reports that the existing
paving is only 18 months old so it should not have to be removed and replaced. Regarding
Planning Condition No.27, he stated that there is a 3'6"landscape easement between the adjacent
property and the property line and requested that an additional 3'4" area be sufficient to satisfy
intention of the condition. He submitted a new site plan exhibit for Planning Commission review.
There being no further appearances, the Public Hearing was closed.
Commissioner Raya called Mr. Selene to the podium to ask if it would be possible to add 1-2
parking spaces. Mr. Selene reported that he discussed this with staff and was encouraged not to
in order to keep setbacks, water retention areas, and landscaping in place. He confirmed that the
trash is within an enclosure.
Dave Barakian, City Engineer, reported that, regarding Engineering Condition No. 9, the
requirement does not apply in this instance where the existing curb and gutter is so new. He stated
that City Ordinance requires the undergrounding of utilities in this case. He stated that, in the past,
if adjacent development was served by overhead utilities and those overhead utilities also served
the subject development property, then staff could recommend that Planning Commission agree
to covenant; however, this has not been done in a Tract Map situation in the past.
Commissioner Raya called Mr. Sanborn to the podium. Mr. Sanborn reviewed water retention
areas for the Planning Commission. City Engineer stated that, for reducing water retention areas,
the Planning Commission has established a policy that, unless developer can prove that retention
capacity exists downstream,all water must be retained onsite. Mr.Sanborn stated that a hydrology
report has been submitted and that the prior development probably had runoff into the street.
City Engineer stated that, after checking the code and location of poles, he feels the City could
defer the undergrounding by covenant and, further,through CC&Rs for future property owners. He
stated that calling a covenant on a Tentative Tract Map would be difficult to enforce.
Commissioner Matthews stated that the community wants power lines undeirgrounded.
M/S(Matthews/Caffery)to approve per Conditions of Approval in Staff Report; and delete Planning
Condition No. 27.
Commissioner Raya stated that he felt requiring the undergrounding of utilities is a tremendous
burden to developers and should be addressed as a City-wide program. Fie asked the motion
maker to reconsider the requirement.
Director reported that the approximate cost for undergrounding is $300 to $500 per linear foot.

May 22, 2002 Planning Commission
Minutes
Chairman Klatchko stated that the undergrounding of utilities is an enhancement to development
and is consistent with City Ordinance.
Commissioner Raya asked that the City Council be informed that there is a feeling of concern for
the viability of the development if undergrounding of utilities is required. He called the applicant
to the podium.
Mr. Chris Selene stated that deferment to CC&Rs is acceptable and that the cost of the land is
significant different than the cost of the number of poles in the ground which would need to be
removed. He stated that future home sites would face the mountains and away from the poles.
He stated that the pole at the northeast corner is most problematic.
Call for vote: 5-0, 2 abstentions (to approve per Conditions of Approval in Staff Report; and delete
Planning Condition No. 27.)

Quality Act (CEQA).

which a Planned Development District is authorized by the City's .Zoning
Ordinance.

residential complex is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the City of
Palm Springs General Plan and is not detrimental to existing uses specifically permitted
in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located-
b. The proposed Planned Development District is consistent with the applicable
general and specific plans.
The subject property is designated as L-2 (Very Low Density Residential Designation)
on the City's General Plan Land Use Map and R-2 (Limited Multiple Family Residential)
pursuant to the Zoning Map. The objective of the L-2 General Plan Designation is to
accommodate various types of low-density residential development, including large
estate lost.and traditional single-family homes. The proposed use fits within the broad
range of uses typically allowed in the L-2 General Plan and R-2 Zoning Ordinance
categories. The project is consistent with the General Plan.

community, is in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the General
22,1) 2

permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located.
The proposed Planned Development District will provide additional housing with in the
area and beautify the area by adding landscaping and other improvements along
Prescott Drive. The project is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the
City of Palm Springs General Plan and is not detrimental to existing uses specifically
permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located.
d. The design or improvements of the proposed Planned Development are
consistent with the General Plan.

cumulative traffic issues in the immediate area, the perimeter street will be required to be
dedicated and developed to the full ultimate half-street widths, consistent with the goals,
policies and objectives of the City's General Plan. The required dedication of right-of-way
and improvements will provide safety benefits to the property owners and will
aesthetically enhance the neighborhood.
