WHEREAS, subsequent to the Planning Commission recommendation
of January 8, 2008, the applicant proposed revisions to the Project, based on both
written and oral testimony from residents of PGA West, as presented during the
Planning Commission Public Hearing. Said revisions include: 1) a reduction in unit
count from 290 to 264: 2) elimination of the third -story elements of the Village
units with a reduction of maximum height from 33.6 feet, to 29.5 feet: 3)
elimination of the 7,122 s.f. clubhouse facility and 43.5-foot high clock tower: and
4) the addition of a second common area pool and replacement of the 7,122
clubhouse with a smaller common pool and restroom/changing structure; and,
WHEREAS, the Project revisions as described herein were determined
by the Planning Department to be within the scope of the Planning Commission
recommendation, and therefore do not require remanding for further review, as the
changes serve to address some of the Planning Commission's concerns and
recommendations, specifically in regard to height and density; and,
WHEREAS, the Department has prepared a Subsequent Environmental
Impact Report ("SEIR") State Clearinghouse #2007061056) in compliance with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as
amended. The Draft SEIR was presented to the La Quinta Planning Commission,

its recommendations to the City Council on the project applications; and,
WHEREAS, said Project changes previously described herein were
reviewed by the Planning Department pursuant to Section 15088.5 of the CEQA
Guidelines, and it was determined that recirculation of the Draft SEIR was not
required, as the changes would contribute to an overall reduction of the identified
potential Project impacts; and,
WHEREAS, the La Quinta Planning Department did publish a City
Council Public Hearing notice in The Desert Sun newspaper, on the 26" day of
January, 2008, as prescribed by the La Quinta Municipal Code, and, on February

WHEREAS, the Historic Preservation Commission, at their meeting
held on the 18th, day of May, 2006, reviewed the archaeological and
paleontological resources surveys associated with the applications, and adopted
Minute Motions 2006-006 and 2006-007 respectively, recommending approval of
these surveys to the Planning Commission, subject to staff -recommended
conditions; and
WHEREAS, the La Quinta Architecture and Landscaping Review
Committee, at their meeting on the 7" day of February, 2007 reviewed the
development plans associated with Site Development Permit 2006-852, and
adopted a Minute Motion 2007-002 recommending approval to the Planning
Commission, subject to staff -recommended conditions; and
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments of all interested persons desiring to be heard, the City
Council did make the following mandatory findings to justify approving Site
Development Permit:
1. Site Development Permit 2006-852 is consistent with the La Quinta General
Plan, in that the project site, which is within the PGA West Specific Plan, is
to be designated as Resort Mixed Use (RMU) under the La Quinta General
Plan, and Specific Plan 83-002, Amendment No. 6. The RMU designation
permits mixed -use developments that include single- and multi -family
residential condominium development. The proposed project is made up of
single and multi -family building types, designed as condominium/townhome
units. This provides a housing mix that promotes General Plan goals to
provide a mix of housing types to La Quinta residents.
2. Site Development Permit 2006-852 is consistent with the La Quinta Zoning
Code. Zone Change 2006-127 and applicable Specific Plan 83-002,
Amendment No. 6, rezone the project site within the PGA West Specific Plan
as Tourist Commercial, with a Residential Specific Plan Overlay. This
designation permits the proposed 264-unit condominium/townhome project
as a residential use with access to resort amenities. Use of this Overlay is
appropriate, in conjunction with the Specific Plan Amendment, to facilitate
the residential amenity proposed and the integration of a residential land use
component into the existing Tourist Commercial zoning as set forth in the
Specific Plan. Further, residential use of the site is permitted with approval
of Development Agreement 2006-011, that ensures a funding mechanism to
Resolution No. 2008-028

be in place, to financially offset the conversion of the original hotel/resort
site to residential. Applicable development standards are complied with
based on the proposed plans, Specific Plan 83-002, Amendment No. 6
regulations and recommended Conditions of Approval.
3. Processing and approval of Site Development Permit 2006-852 are in
compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality
Act. The La Quinta Planning Department has prepared a Subsequent
Environmental Impact Report #2007061056 (SEIR) for the Project, which
includes Site Development Permit 2006-852, in compliance with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970. The Draft
SEIR was presented to the Planning Commission, which reviewed and
considered the information contained in said Draft SEIR prior to its
recommendations to the City Council on the Project. The City Council has
therefore taken action to certify the Final SEIR, as adequate and complete, in
accordance with CEQA requirements.
4. The architectural design of Site Development Permit 2006-852, including,
but not limited to the architectural style, scale, building mass, materials,
colors, architectural details, roof style, and other architectural elements, are
compatible with surrounding development and with the quality of design
prevalent in the City. PGA West has had numerous merchant builders over
the years, with varying architectural styles and materials. As a result, there
are several architectural "neighborhoods" within the overall PGA West
Specific Plan area, with different architectural styles that, in some cases, are
in close proximity to one another. The project architecture is internally
consistent in architectural design and materials used throughout the project
site, which is buffered from surrounding residential areas within PGA West
by golf course uses and PGA Boulevard. As a result, the project is
somewhat removed from other PGA West residential areas and directs
architectural compatibility internally to the project.
5. The site design of Site Development Permit 2006-852, including, but not
limited to project entries, interior circulation, pedestrian amenities, and other
site design elements will be compatible with surrounding development in
PGA West and with the quality of design prevalent in the City. The Project
site design has in part been established by previous development of PGA
West over the past 20 plus years. The project site will take access from
PGA Boulevard, and does not share access with any existing residential
areas. The secluded nature of the site affords an entirely internalized site
Resolution No. 2008-028
Site Development Permit 2006-852

design, which provides for pedestrian and vehicular circulation without
accessing other private residential areas. The project generally locates units
of lower profile and intensity around the project perimeters, clustering the
higher density Village units central to the site. This internalized site design is
compatible with surrounding PGA West development as a limited access,
private residential community.
6. Site Development Permit 2006-852 landscaping, as conditioned, including
but not limited to the location, type, size, color, texture, and coverage of
plant materials is designed so as to provide visual relief, complement
buildings, visually emphasize prominent design elements and vistas, screen
undesirable views, and provide a harmonious transition between adjacent
land uses. The Eden Rock project proposes four distinct landscape zones,
which will serve to establish an overall unifying influence, enhance the visual
continuity of the project, complement the surrounding project area and
comply with City and CVWD water efficiency requirements, ensuring
efficient water use.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of La Quinta, California, as follows:
That the above recitations are true and constitute the findings of the City
Council in this case;
2. That it does hereby grant approval of Site Development Permit 2006-852, as
referenced in the title of this Resolution, for the reasons set forth in this
Resolution, and subject to the attached Conditions of Approval.
3. This Resolution shall not take effect until and unless a Development
Agreement between the Applicant and the City is executed by all parties and
recorded with the Riverside County Recorder's Office.
PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the City
of La Quinta City Council, held on this the 15T" day of April, 2008, by the following
vote, to wit:
