CONSENT CALENDAR:
Consideration of the Establishment of SilverRock
Ranch Golf Industry Consultant Line Item in the STUDY SESSION:
Municipal Golf Course — Phase 1 Capital PUBLIC HEARING:
Improvement Project
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize establishment of a SilverRock Ranch Golf Industry Consultant line item in the
Municipal Golf Course — Phase 1 Capital Improvement Project (GIC) in the amount of
$50,000 and authorize staff to utilize this funding to retain industry experts for
consultation on various project tasks.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
No additional appropriations are requested.
Staff recommends that this line item be established in the amount of $50,000, utilizing
funds within the Capital Improvement Program project entitled, "Municipal Golf Course
— Phase I."
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
Staff has received inquiries and proposals from numerous golf industry experts for
assistance with various implementation aspects of SilverRock Ranch. Attachment 1 is
a listing of consultants, service providers, vendors and other interested parties included
in the Agency's project file. The firms included within this file have an enormous
wealth of industry experience that the Agency may wish to tap on a time -and -materials
basis for various aspects of project implementation. For example, staff recently
concluded contract negotiations with Palmer Course Design Company for golf course
architectural services. Landmark Golf Company reviewed the contract and offered
salient comments at the Agency meeting, but staff had no authorization or budget to
solicit Landmark comment prior to that time. There will be additional opportunity in
the future for Agency staff to buttress existing expertise if the GIC line item is
established (i.e., marketing, golf course operations, course routing, tournament design
characteristics, etc.).
The City's Consultant Selection Procedures (LQMC Section 3.32.030, Attachment 2,
and Resolution 2003-026, Attachment 3) outline the selection process for "minor
contract services" (i.e., for contracts under $25,000). Staff would propose to use
Attachment 1, as amended, as other firms indicate an interest in any particular aspect
of the project, to meet requirements of the selection procedure for solicitation of
competitive proposals.
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Agency Board include:
1. Authorize establishment of a SilverRock Ranch Golf Industry Consultant line
item (GIC) in the amount of $50,000 and authorize staff to utilize this funding
to retain industry experts for consultation on various project tasks; or
2. Do not authorize establishment of a SilverRock Ranch Golf Industry Consultant
Line item ; or
3. Provide staff with alternative direction.

Re: SilverRock Ranch
Dear Agency Board Member,
I wrote a letter dated July 24, 2003 (attached) to Mark Weiss in regard to the Tournament
Consultant role that was introduced in the Scope of Services Attachment to Professional Services
Agreement with Palmer Course Design Company. Mr. Weiss has responded both in writing and
by telephone. I appreciate the follow-up by Mr. Weiss. The letter of July 241h was our formal
request for Johnny Pott and Landmark Golf Company to fulfill the role of Tournament Consultant
("TC").
In this writing, I would like for you to know that we support staff being in a position to hire
experts to perform different tasks as tasks become present. Believe me the tasks will come up
and must be dealt with. I do not have the experience to know if the other items in the Staff
Report for Consideration of the Establishment of SilverRock Ranch Golf Industry Consultant
Line Item in the Municipal Golf Course — Phase 1 Capital Improvement Project are necessary or
not.
The expertise to provide professional golf tournament, golf course and overall facility
requirements needs to be on board immediately to begin to interact and attend all meetings in the
Desert with Palmer Design representative or you will incur the costs of re -designs.
By selecting Johnny Pott to be the Tournament Consultant you will receive more than just Johnny
Pott's knowledge. You will get Ernie Vossler, Joe Walser (when Joe left the Desert for six years
in the beginning of the 1990s, he went to work full-time for the PGA Tour in charge of all the
PGA Tour golf facilities worldwide) and the remaining talent and disciplines of Landmark Golf
Company. Landmark Golf Company is prepared to begin work immediately upon notification.
The principals at Landmark have hosted every type of professional golf tournament from local to
international. If you will, please let's focus on three of these:
International — Ryder Cup — The Ocean Course, Kiawah Island, South Carolina. The site,
clubhouse, golf course and surrounding facility designed and built by Landmark knowing
that Kiawah Island was the site for the Ryder Cup. Kiawah is a 54-hole resort golf
community.

Phone (760) 776-6688 Fax (760) 776-6686 A
www.landmarkgolf.com `f i�
2. National — PGA Championship — OakTree Golf Club, Edmond, Oklahoma. The site,
clubhouse, golf course and surrounding facility designed and built by Landmark.
OakTree Golf Club is 18 holes of a 54-hole master planned community.
Local — PGA West and Mission Hills Country Club — right here in our Desert. Both of
these facilities were designed in house by Landmark with televised professional golf
tournaments in mind. Why is there ample area for all that must occur at these events?
Landmark was prepared to address the issues from the clubhouse setting and circulation,

COUNCIL/RDA MEETING DATE: August 5, 2003
ITEM TITLE:
Consideration of Requests for Proposals for Public
Affairs/Marketing Services and Architectural Services
for SilverRock Ranch and Appointment of Consultant
Selection Committees
RECOMMENDATION:
AGENDA CATEGORY:
BUSINESS SESSION:
CONSENT CALENDAR:
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
Authorize the distribution of Requests for Proposals (RFP's) for Public
Affairs/Marketing services and Architectural services (Phase 1 A) and appointment of
Consultant Selection Committees.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None for this action. The City's Capital Improvement Program includes a project
entitled, "Municipal Golf Course -Phase I," including $2.5 million for contractual
services, relating to planning, engineering, architectural, marketing and property
management services. Approximately $400,000 has been allocated to planning
services, $1,000,000 for golf course architect services, $100,000 for development
coordinator services and approximately $500,000 will be required for engineering,
landscape architectural and other miscellaneous services. Accordingly, sufficient funds
(i.e. approximately $500,000) remain in this account for architectural, marketing, and
other project related expenses.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
The Redevelopment Agency acquired 525 acres of property, commonly referred to as
"The Ranch," in June of 2002. The Agency adopted a conceptual land use plan and
renamed the project "SilverRock Ranch" in May 2003. The Agency selected Palmer
Course Design Company (PCDC) to provide golf course architectural services and Roy
Stephenson, P.E., of Berryman & Henigar, to serve as Development Coordinator for
Phase I of the project.
The Development Coordinator's responsibilities include assisting the project
development team in identifying and preparing RFP's for specialists needed to design
the golf course, support infrastructure, landscape improvements, a temporary
clubhouse, restrooms, and other ancillary structures. In addition, the Development
Coordinator will prepare RFP's or Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) for construction
managers, golf course contractors, golf course operators and pre -opening marketing
services. The Agency approved the project schedule and distribution of request for
proposals for Civil Engineering and Plant Inventory services at its meeting of July 1,
2003. The contract for the golf course architect (PCDC) was approved by the Agency
on July 22, 2003.
In accordance with the consultant selection project schedule (Attachment 1), RFP's
have now been prepared for Public Affairs/Marketing services and Architectural
services. These two professional services, coupled with the golf course architect
(PCDC) and the master planning firm (GMA), represent the core group of consultants
who, when working in concert with the Redevelopment Agency Board and project
development team, will provide the expertise necessary to achieve the Agency's
objectives for SilverRock Ranch.
It is envisioned that numerous workshops with the Redevelopment Agency Board,
consultants and project team will be held to allow for meaningful input and exchange
of ideas in the development of the branding/logo, marketing strategy, and architectural
design themes that incorporate the character of the City of La Quinta consistent with
the vision and objectives of the master plan.
Public Affairs/Marketing Services RFP
The RFP for Public Affairs/Marketing (Attachment 2) is for services up to and including
the grand opening of the first golf course. These services include: development of a
branding/logo plan; development of a comprehensive and prioritized media relation
program; creation of promotional campaign elements and collateral material; defining a
strategy to incorporate the golf course operators marketing efforts with the Public
Affairs/Marketing consultant to avoid duplication of effort; providing a timeline
showing when media relations and other activities will occur; event planning
assistance; assisting in the marketing efforts with resort developers; and creating a
merchandising plan to help promote the golf course prior to opening.
Architect RFP
The RFP for Architectural (Attachment 3) is for services associated with the
preparation of plans, specifications and cost estimates for a temporary clubhouse, golf
course maintenance building, 2 golf course restrooms and a well/pump house building.
The RFP identifies the existing Ranch House building as a potential temporary
clubhouse and requests a feasibility study be prepared that quantifies the suitability of
using the Ranch House building and the costs associated with bringing the building up
to applicable building codes and ADA regulations. If the building is not suitable, then a
2
temporary clubhouse using modular components is to be designed. The RFP also
requests that the architectural firm present their approach on how the permanent
buildings will be compatible with the theme and vision of the master plan and the
future permanent clubhouse.
Consultant Selection Committee
Staff proposes the Consultant Selection Committee for both review processes include
the following members:
Mark Weiss, Assistant Executive Director
Tim Jonasson, Public Works Director
Jerry Herman, Community Development Director
Roy Stephenson, Development Coordinator
Frank Spevacek, Redevelopment Consultant
Process
Both RFP's have been set up using the standard consultant selection process wherein
the Committee interviews, rates and negotiates a contract with a selected firm, with
subsequent contract consideration by the full Agency Board. On selected occasions
(i.e., the Golf Architect), the Board has chosen to interview finalists prior to contract
negotiation/consideration. Staff is prepared to modify the RFP's and schedules should
the Agency Board wish to interview the top rated firms for either, or both, referenced
RFP's.
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Agency Board include:
1. Authorize the distribution of RFP's for Public Affairs/Marketing services and
Architectural services (Phase IA) and appoint Consultant Selection Committees;
or
2. Do not authorize the distribution and RFP's for Public Affairs/Marketing services
and Architectural services (Phase IA); or
3. Provide staff with alternative direction.

Request For Proposals
The La Quinta Redevelopment Agency (RDA) is requesting proposals
from Public Affairs/Marketing firms to provide Branding/Logo,
public/media relations, investor relations, merchandising and
marketing services for the RDA's SilverRock Ranch Project.
In July 2002, the Agency purchased 525 acres that was once the
Ahmanson family ranch. Now known as SilverRock Ranch, the
RDA's goal is to develop a premier golf -oriented resort community
that encompasses two 18-hole golf courses, resort, passive
recreation and resort oriented commercial uses. The property is
adjacent to the Coral Reef Mountains and the private golf
communities of PGA West, Tradition, The Citrus, and The Hideaway.
GMA International has completed the conceptual master plan and
development program for this property, which was approved by the
Redevelopment Agency Board on May 6, 2003. The master plan
includes a preliminary routing plan for both golf courses, entry roads,
and identifies future hotel and commercial sites. The master plan
also includes a phasing plan (Exhibit A). Phases IA and IB have now
been conceptually approved by the RDA for implementation.
The RDA has selected Palmer Course Design Company as the Golf
Course Architect for Phase IA. The RDA has also extended the
contract with GMA International to provide support services during
the design effort. Roy Stephenson, P.E., of Berryman & Henigar,
Inc., has been retained to provide development coordination services.
As a redevelopment project, SilverRock Ranch is envisioned as a
community asset — not only a recreational asset, but a financial asset
as well. The golf course, resorts and retail venues will generate
revenues to the City that are needed to maintain La Quinta's
exceptional quality of life. In the interest of facilitating the generation
of these revenues, the SilverRock Ranch marketing campaign is
expected to extend existing local awareness and anticipation to a
much broader public. The marketing campaign will help ensure high
usage from the resort's opening day onward by establishing
SilverRock Ranch in the minds of the golf, resort and retail industries,
C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files\OLK43B5\Request for Proposals (Publl .DOC
1 � �
travel agents, world travelers, businesses and Southern California
residents as a superb new destination resort.
The Public Affairs/Marketing firm is required to work closely with the
Redevelopment Agency Board, the project development team,
Palmer Course Design Company, and GMA International.
Workshops will be held with the Redevelopment Agency Board and
other key consultants to allow for meaningful input and exchange of

Ranch Vision
The SilverRock Ranch's canvas spans 525 acres adjacent to the
base of the Coral Reef Mountains in the City of La Quinta. The
RDA's goal is to develop premiere hospitality and golf venues that
become must -see destinations in the Coachella Valley. The final
development will be crafted as if it had evolved over time by melding
the rich hues of the desert and strong architectural elements inspired
by the site with rusticated materials.
Environmental approvals have been secured to develop the following
uses on SilverRock Ranch: a 250-room hotel with a 10,000 square
foot conference center; 300 condo hotel or fractional units with up to
500 keys; two 18-hole public golf courses with a driving range and a
25,000 square foot clubhouse; one 9-hole public golf course; and
25,000 square feet of ancillary tourist commercial uses. Additional
approved uses entail passive park space, trails, and view corridors.
The RDA approved a Master Plan for the project in May 2003. The
Master Plan sets forth a preferred site development program and plan
that will guide the precise planning processes. GMA International
has been managing this activity and prepared the master plan and
associated documents. Their work will be available to the selected
organization. The RDA has secured funding to facilitate the
development of one golf course and associated improvements.

ATTACHMENT 3
Request For Proposals
The La Quinta Redevelopment Agency (RDA) is requesting proposals
from Architectural consulting firms to prepare plans, specifications
and cost estimates for the remodeling of an existing building for use
as a temporary clubhouse, or for a new temporary modular clubhouse
and other proposed buildings for the RDA's SilverRock Ranch.
(Phase IA)
In July 2002, the Agency purchased 525 acres that was once the
Ahmanson family ranch. Now known as SilverRock Ranch, the
RDA's goal is to develop a premier golf -oriented resort community
that encompasses two 18-hole golf courses, resort, passive
recreation and resort oriented commercial uses. The property is
adjacent to the Coral Reef Mountains and the private golf
communities of PGA West, Tradition, The Citrus, and The Hideaway.
GMA International has completed the conceptual master plan and
development program for this property, which was approved by the
Redevelopment Agency Board on May 6, 2003. The master plan
includes a preliminary routing plan for both golf courses, entry roads,
and identifies future community/Golf Clubhouse hotel and commercial
sites. The master plan also includes a phasing plan (Exhibit A).
Phases IA and I B have now been conceptually approved by the RDA
for implementation.
The RDA has selected Palmer Course Design Company as the Golf
Course Architect for Phase IA. The RDA has also extended the
contract with GMA International to provide support services during
the design effort. Roy Stephenson, P.E., of Berryman & Henigar,
Inc., has been retained to provide development coordination services.
The Architectural style of the buildings in the first phase of
development is critical in establishing a design theme that is
compatible with the vision and objectives of the RDA master plan.
The Architectural consulting firm is required to work closely with the
Redevelopment Agency Board, the project development team,
Palmer Course Design Company, and GMA International. 5
S:\CityMgr\Mark Weiss\The Ranch\rfps\rfp architect 8503.DOC
1 24
Workshops will be held with the Redevelopment Agency Board and
other key consultants to allow for meaningful input and exchange of
ideas in the development of the architectural designs of the buildings.
It is essential that the architectural forms and materials are integrated
into the character of the City of La Quinta and are consistent with the
vision of the master plan.

Desired Services
The firm is expected to familiarize itself with the SilverRock Ranch
Master Plan, particularly as it relates to the character, theme, vision
and objectives of the RDA. This RFP is not for design of the
permanent clubhouse, but limited to a remodel of the existing Ranch
House building, if determined feasible, or a temporary clubhouse, two
golf course restrooms and a golf course maintenance building.
Specific services should, at a minimum, include the following:
• Prepare a detailed evaluation of the existing 2500± sf Ranch
House building to determine its suitability for use as temporary
clubhouse. Evaluation should include compliance with
applicable building codes and ADA regulations. The proposed

Adopt (1) a Resolution of the Board of Directors of the La Quinta Redevelopment
Agency authorizing the issuance of Project Area No. 1 tax allocation bonds, Taxable
Series 2003, in a principal amount not to exceed thirty million dollars ($30,000,000)
to finance a portion of the costs of a redevelopment project known as La Quinta
Redevelopment Project Area No. 1 and approving certain other actions in connection
therewith; and (2) approve a contract with Stradling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth to serve
as Bond Disclosure Counsel. (Attachment 1)
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None at this time. However, costs associated with the issuance of the bonds will be
deducted from the bond proceeds. The Agency will incur issuance costs related to
legal, underwriting, trustee and pricing consultant fees, document preparation, printing,
and bond insurance costs. Staff has clone a preliminary financial analysis and has
estimated that, based upon a possible $26.8 million bond issuance, the estimated
costs of issuance and other costs and reserves are estimated at approximately $1.1
million for a net available amount of $25.7 million. These fees are subject to change
based upon the actual amount of the bond issue and final negotiations with members
of the bond team. Once these costs are identified, staff will present them to the
Agency Board for review and consideration prior to proceeding with the bond issue.
CITY CHARTER IMPLICATIONS:
None. q "C
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
When considering the business plan for SilverRock Ranch, the Agency Board directed
staff to structure and sell taxable Project Area No. 1 tax allocation bonds. The reason
was to afford the Agency the greatest flexibility when structuring land sale,
development and golf operations transactions with the private sector. The Agency
Board desires to offer preferred tee times to attract resort and hotel enterprises, to
secure a golf tournament, and to have the greatest flexibility when structuring sale or
lease transactions for the disposition of the resort, casitas and retail designated sites.
Federal and state statutes provide that a redevelopment agency may sell tax-exempt
and taxable bonds to raise capital. Tax-exempt bonds are used to fund activities that
serve a public purpose and benefit governmental agencies such as: building flood
control channels, streets, parks and public buildings; funding affordable housing
projects and programs; or transferring property at zero value to facilitate
redevelopment. The interest earnings that bondholders receive are exempt from both
Federal and State income tax liabilities. Taxable bonds are used when the proceeds
benefit private, non -government activities such as: selling or leasing property to private
or non -governmental (non-profit organizations fit the latter category) entities at fair
market value; offering preferred use of a publicly -owned facility to private or non-
governmental entities that will profit from using the property; and permitting private or
non -governmental entities to run profit generating operations within a publicly -owned
facility. The interest earnings that bondholders receive from taxable bonds are taxed
at both the Federal and State level. Because the bond interest earnings are taxed,
taxable bonds have commanded higher interest rates than tax-exempt bonds, typically
2 to 4 percent higher. However, interest rates are at historic lows and taxable bond
interest rates are now only slightly higher than tax-exempt bond interest rates.
In order to provide the Agency with the greatest flexibility when structuring private
activity transactions involving SilverRock Ranch, the Agency must use taxable bond
proceeds to fund some or all of the land costs, and the planning, engineering and site
development activities for the private activity use areas. In February 2003, the
Agency Board authorized staff to assemble the bond financing team that developed
and sold the Project Area No. 1 Series 2001 and Series 2002 Bonds. Team members
entail Bill Marticorena of Rutan and Tucker as Agency bond counsel, Robin Thomas of
Wedbush Morgan Securities as underwriter, David McEwen of Stradling, Yocca Carlson
and Rauth as disclosure counsel, Susan Harrell as pricing consultant, and RSG as fiscal
consultant. The Agency' s Bond Team has prepared revenue projections and identified
that Project Area No. 1 has the capacity to issue up to $30.0 million of taxable tax
allocation bonds while reserving at least $1.0 million of tax increment revenue, after all
bond debt service payments, for on -going operations costs.
The taxable bond proceeds would be used to:
• Reimburse the Agency's non-taxable bond fund for land acquisition and
planning costs related to the private use areas of the SilverRock Ranch property.
2
88
Tax-exempt bond proceeds were used to acquire and fund the master planning
costs for these sites. If tax-exempt bond proceeds are used, Federal tax
statutes provide that the only land disposition option available to the Agency
would be to write down the value of these properties to $1 .00.
• Reimburse the Agency's non-taxable bond fund for land acquisition and
planning costs related to the Phase 1 golf course, the practice area/driving
range, clubhouse/community center, and golf maintenance facility. Analysis by
the Bond Team indicates that preferred tee times and tournament use could
encompass up to 55 % of the total number of rounds that may be played on the
Phase 1 golf course. Preferred tee times and tournament use is considered a
private activity under Federal tax statutes.
• Fund for the design, engineering and construction costs associated with the
Phase 1 golf course, flood control facilities, back-up water well, Phase 1 course
restrooms, the maintenance and golf cart storage building, temporary clubhouse
and village lake. Doing this would allow the Agency to offer preferred tee times
and tournament use that may be played on the Phase 1 golf course, and to sell
the property that adjoins the village lake to private entities at values the market
can support at the time these uses are developed, thus allowing the Agency to
generate the greatest returns from the sale or lease of these properties.
Reimbursing the tax-exempt bond fund for prior land and master planning expenditures
provides additional tax-exempt bond funds that can be used for public projects.
Funding some of the development costs with taxable bond proceeds frees tax-exempt
bond funds that the Agency has reserved in the Capital Improvement Program for
Phase 1 development activities. Staff recommends that the Agency consider
reallocating these funds to build some of the on -and off -site improvements required for
the Phase 2 development of SilverRock Ranch (Jefferson Street parkway
improvements, Avenue 54 street and parkway improvements, sewer, water and utility
infrastructure, and associated design and municipal fees), and the 45-acre
park/practice course.
Activities have progressed to a point where draft documents have been completed and
are ready to be distributed to bond insurance and rating agencies. Staff anticipates
that up to $26 million in Taxable Series 2003 Bonds will be sold. We are requesting
authorization to issue up to $30.0 million if discount and interest rates are favorable
and permit the sale of bonds in excess of $26 million.
Staff is seeking Agency Board approval of the attached Resolution that authorizes the
following:
• The issuance of up to $30.0 million in Project Area No.1 Tax Allocation Bonds,
Taxable Series 2003;
• Authorizes the Agency Chair or Executive Director to sign the final bond
certificates and related documents, and take actions necessary to deliver the
3
S1
bonds in accordance with the attached Resolution and Indenture of Trust;
• Approves the Indenture of Trust which will serve as the contract between the
Agency and bond holders;
• Appoints U.S. Bank Trust National Association as the bond trustee (the entity
that collects bond payments from the Agency and disburses these payments to
the bond holders);
• Authorizes the bond underwriter to distribute the Preliminary Official Statement,
the document that discloses all of the details regarding the bonds; and
Authorizes the Executive Director and Finance Director to pay all of the issuance
costs.
The Bonds will be sold through the La Quinta Financing Authority. Since 1988 the
Agency has sold eight bond issues through the Financing Authority, who in turn
directly sold the bonds to underwriters. A bond pricing consultant has been used to
insure that the interest rates, discount rates and issuance costs are equal to those
incurred for like sized and structured bond issues sold on a competitive bid basis.
Given the diligent and cost effective service that Wedbush Morgan securities provided
for the 2001 and 2002 bonds, staff recommends that this firm serve as underwriter
for this financing.
FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Agency Board include:
1 . Adopt (1) a Resolution of the Board of Directors of the La Quinta
Redevelopment Agency authorizing the issuance of Project Area No. 1 tax
allocation bonds, Taxable Series 2003, in a principal amount not to exceed
thirty million dollars ($30,000,000) to finance a portion of the costs of a
redevelopment project known as La Quinta Redevelopment Project Area No. 1
and approving certain other actions in connection therewith; and (2) approve a
contract with Stradling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth to serve as Bond Disclosure
Counsel; or
2. Do not adopt (1) a Resolution of the Board of Directors of the La Quinta
Redevelopment Agency authorizing the issuance of Project Area No. 1 tax
