Letters: ANALYSIS Landmark Land Co. 20 acre statutory condominium with 108 units West of Eisenhower Drive, north of Ave. 50 and south of Avenida Fernando 20 acres Eisenhower Drive, Fernando, and Ave 50 Existing tennis clubs and date groves La Quinta Hotel, golf course and country club R-3 R-2 and R-3 Land Use: Low Density Residential (3-5 du/ac) Open Space: Urban Circulation: Eisenhower 100' R/W Drive and Ave. 50 major Within the city limit of La Quinta None received in opposition or support The applicant, Landmark Land Co., i.ng approval of tentative Tract 18765 Amended #1 a 19 acre parcel locateds re of Eisenhower Drive and south of Avenida Fernando within the newly incorporated La Quinta City limits and Revised Specific Plan 121-E. The 9.2 acres of the site have been developed with 17 tennis courts, 4 additional courts are planned. Construction of the tennis courts prior to approval of the revised specific plan was permitted under Plot Plan 5829, approved January 1981. The remaining 10 acres are still in a date grove, these acres are the site for tentative Tract 18765 Amended #1. As part of the tennis club the 10 acres will be developed with 108 statutory condominium units. The orientation of the condominiums feature the primary theme of the development as the tennis complex. Specific landscaping, parking, treatment of the perimeter walls and other design information is unavailable and, if required, will be submitted to the city at a later date. The developer has requested this latitude to retain fea- sibility of design. Specific Plan 121-E revised, approved by the La Quinta City Council September 12, 1982, allowed for the addition of acreage and drainage facilities to the specific plan and subject to the density transfers. The 19.23 acre parcel labeled "not a part" in the original Specific Plan has been included. A complex of tennis courts and 200 condominiums were approved in the revised specific plan site. The develop- ment proposed in Tract 18765 will include 21 tennis courts and 108 condominium units. The remaining 92 units approved under the revised specific plan can be developed elsewhere in the specific plan area at the discretion of the developer. 3.A 605 Tract 18765 Amended #1 P.C. Hearing Date: 10-12-82 Page 2 GENERAL PLAN In accordance with the previously adopted Specific Plan 121-E, the function of 'the revised specific 121-E is to serve as an implementation device for the Cove Communi- ties General Plan. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the 19 acre site as Low Density Residential, 3-5 dwelling units per acre. Urban land uses are planned for the subject property in the Open Space and Conservation elements of the General Plan. Through the mechanism of a specific plan a transfer of densities can be accomplished so that clustered types of dwelling units and associated common recreation areas can be developed. The resulting density of the development initiated through Tract No. 18765 Amended #1 will be 5.4 units per acre. The density is somewhat higher than the maximum allowed under the General Plan designation of low density residential, how- ever, the density is made consistent through the allowance of 200 units for the site in the revised specific plan. Change of Zone 3491, approved with Specific Plan 121-E, facilitated the R-3 zoning designation necessary for the proposal. Change of Zone 3491 was approved by La Quinta City Council October 5, 1982. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT An Environmental Impact Report #41 was previously certified with approval of Specific Plan 121-E by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors in April, 1975. Based upon the EIR Environmental Assessment No. 15626 was adopted with approval of the revised specific plan. Environmental hazards and potential impacts identified in the initial study 16485 particularly associated with Tract 18765 included the following issues: SCHOOLS As a vacation and retirement home type development, the present project would have no significant impacts on the Desert Sands Unified School District which serves the area. However, should the school district file a notice of impaction, with the county, the developer shall be required to adequately mitigate school impacts prior to the issuance of the building permits. AIR QUALITY Short term air quality impacts of exhaust from construction equipment and dust from grading and construction would be experienced during the temporary construction per- iod. These impacts would be minor in nature and can be adequately mitigated by watering of dust prone areas and confinement of construction activities to normal working hours. From a longer term prospective, the emissions from automobile traffic would consti- tute the major air quality impact for the life of the project. From a regional perspective, the additional air pollution would be relatively insignificant. Also, the nature of the project would lead to the greatest levels of traffic and pollution on weekends when permanent residents would be driven less. "Peak" traffic volumes would be minimal because traffic would tend to be very spread out rather than U �, Tract'18765 Amended #1 PC Hearing Date: 10/12/82 Page 3 concentrated in a to and from work pattern inherent in a development of permanent residents. WATER Water services to the original hotel units and the previously existing portions of the golf course is provided by an on -site well owned and operated by Landmark Land Company. New construction will be serviced by the domestic water services of the Coachella Valley Water District. SEWER Existing development in the La Quinta Country Club area is connected via "wet" sewer lines to a septic tank and seepage pit system. The sewage is collected at a "wet" well located at Avenue 50 and Eisenhower, and then transported to an interim treat- ment plant located at Adams and 52nd. Ave. After treatment at the plant, the treat- ed effluent is spread over adjacent alfalfa fields. The interim treatment plant is operated by the Coachella Valley Water District. This facility is presently the only sewage facility other than individual septic tanks serving the La Quinta area. Although figures on the available capacity of the interim plant are unavailable, CVWD has stated that this facility was designed to accomodate all units planned within the Landmark Land Specific Plan and Revised Specific Plan. In response to concerns regarding adequacy of existing sewage cap- acity for Tract 18765 and future developments by Landmark Land and other developers, CVWD officials calimed that they were not able to predict when the existing facility would reach capacity. However, they would "provide sanitation service in accordance with our currently prevailing regulations governing sanitation service". A permanent sewage treatment plant for the La Quinta area is planned by CVWD. Previous efforts to find a permanent site have met with substantial community opposition. Presently, CVWD is working on a draft EIR for two potential sites. The site preferred by CVWD is located just West of Lake Cahuilla, however, this site has encountered opposition from surrounding property owners. The second site is located at Thermal Airport. CVWD officials estimate that the permanent treat- ment plant for La Quinta will be built in two/three years. Sewage service to the 108 units in Tract 18765 will be provided by the interim treatment plant until the permanent facility is constructed by CVWD. There is no assurance however, that the temporary facility has available capacity to serve the new development for an unknown length of time. Staff maintains concern over the practice of continuing use of the interim facility for an indefinite period of time when the actual capacity of this facility is in question. Staff additionally maintains concern over approval of new tract maps with development dependent upon mitigation not currently available nor a foreseeable time frame for that mitigation. 007 Tract 18765 Amended #1 PC Hearing Date: 10/12/82 Page 4 FIRE Fire Protection is provided to the site by the Riverside County Fire Department. The nearest station is located at 78-136 Avenue 52 in La Quinta. Although some additional services will eventually be required by the subject project, no spe- cific additional manpower or equipment requirements have been mandated by the Fire Department. FLOOD Shallow flooding could occur on the project property. However, no significant flood dangers will exist for the proposed development following construction of the La Quinta Evacuation Channel which is now in progress. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS Tract 18765 Amended #1 is consistent with that as approved in Revised Specific Plan 121-E. Tract 18765 is consistent with Riverside County General Plan and compatible with the surrounding resort development. Specific Plan 121-E was approved and the associated Final Environmental Impact Report #41 was certified in April, 1975 by the Board of Supervisors. Revised Specific Plan 121-E and the associated Negative Declaration was approved by La Quinta City Council September, 1982. Environmental impacts and urban service demands of this project will be min- imized by the nature of the development (second and retirement homes). These impacts can be mitigated and services can be provided by incorporating the measures outlined in the Final Environmental Impact Report #41. Tentative Tract 18765 Amended #1 is not subject to any significant environmental hazards nor is it expected to create any significant environmental impact. Existing sewer facilities may be inadequate for the in addition to the already approved developments and under the revised Specific Plan. Future permanent s provide mitigation for the existing situation are st stages with significant issues to be resolved. RECOMMENDATION build -out of this project future units approved ewer facilities which would ill in the tentative planning Therefore, staff recommends ADOPTION of the Negative Declaration for Environmental Assessment No. 16485 and APPROVAL of Tentative Tract 18765 Amended #1 subject to the attached conditions.
