Committee Member Dennis Cunningham asked if there were any comments from the applicant. Mr. Tom Rencovitch, representing the applicant stated they were in agreement with most of staff's recommendations, but would like to discuss some of staff's recommendations in regard to the maintenance facility. In regard to the 'tilt up panels in Condition #3, they will be painted, not stuccoed. 3. Committee Member Cunningham stated the clubhouse and entry gatehouse were beautifully designed and he had no issues. Concerning the maintenance facility, in his opinion staff's recommendation would add too much architectural detail and it would defeat the purpose of having it blend in and not be seen. He would not recommend more than additional cornice detail. Painting is acceptable on the tilt up walls and maybe some scoring. 4. Committee Member Bobbitt stated that in comparison to the maintenance facility at the Tradition, which has the appearance of a hacienda and that of the Rancho La Quinta maintenance facility which is the other end of the architectural scale being more modern and plain, this design is in between.

SOUTH COAST ARCHITECTS FOREST HAAG REQUEST: REVIEW OF LANDSCAPING AND ARCHITECTURAL PLANS FOR THE RESIDENTIAL AND OFFICE COMPONENTS OF A 33 ACRES SITE. LOCATION: NORTH SIDE OF CALLE TAMPICO, BETWEEN AVENIDA BERMUDAS AND EISENHOWER DRIVE. ZONING: VILLAGE COMMERCIAL SURROUNDING ZONING/LAND USES: NORTH: LA QUINTA EVACUATION CHANNEL. SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND GOLF COURSE SOUTH: VACANT, VILLAGE COMMERCIAL LANDS EAST: CONVENIENCE STORE AND VACANT VILLAGE COMMERCIAL LANDS WEST: EISENHOWER DRIVE AND GOLF COURSE BACKGROUND:, The proposed project occurs on the north side of Calle Tampico, and is bounded on the west by Eisenhower Drive and on the east by Avenida Bermudas. The land is currently generally vacant, and has been in agriculture. The Specific Plan includes four components: a Single family residential project with keyed rooms on 21 acres; a retail commercial component on 2.5 acres; an office commercial component on 3.0 acres; and a commercial/ parking component on 6.5 acres. Only two of these are under review with this Village Use! Permit: the residential and commercial office components. The other two will be reviewed independently as application is made. ..Ju 021 REQUEST: The proposed Village Use Permit is for the development of the majority of the site for residential use with keyed rooms, on the western half of the site, and corporate offices for the applicant at the southeastern corner of the site. The review also includes conceptual landscaping plans submitted for the perimeter of the site. The residential proposal calls for three building types, all two and three stories, in the Mediterranean style. The landscaping plan, however, is not of sufficient detail to determine its adequacy. The commercial office component of the project proposes a single story building extending to 21 feet, with a tower element in the center, which is proposed to extend to 35 feet. The landscaping plan submitted is also not of sufficient detail to determine its adequacy. FINDINGS: The Committee is required to comment on the following findings: Architectural Design _ The architectural design of the project, including but not limited o the architectural style, building mass, materials, colors, architectural details, roof style, and other architectural elements are compatible with the surrounding development and with the quality of design prevalent in the city. The building architecture is similar to the Mediterranean architecture found elsewhere in the City. The applicant has provided considerable articulation on all sides of the buildings, which will create visual interest and break up the building mass. The buildings will be smooth trowel finished stucco, and will include multi -paned windows, tile roofs, arched windows and wrought iron accents along balconies. Doorways are also proposed to be recessed under archways, to provide shaded entries and added visual interest. The color palette is proposed to be neutral, and consist primarily of earth tones. The commercial office component proposes a single building, in a similar architectural style. Although much simpler in design than the residential component, a similar smooth trowel finished stucco will be utilized, and archways, shutters and multi -paned windows are also proposed for this structure. The roof will be tile, and the colors proposed are earthtones. The tower element at the center of the building provides some bulk, and breaks up -the facade. Landscape Design Project landscaping, including but not limited to the location, type, size, color, texture, and coverage of plant materials has been designed so as to provide relief, complement buildings, visually emphasize prominent design elements and vistas, screen undesirable views, provide a harmonious transition between adjacent land uses .:.JU 022 and between development and open space, provide an overall unifying influence, enhance the visual continuity of the project, and complement the surrounding project area, ensuring lower maintenance and water use. The landscaping plan has not been detailed in the materials submitted. The plant palette is acceptable, but the size, distribution, location of plantings, location of walls and berming have not been provided. Finally, the submittal does not demonstrate that perimeter landscaping will be completed for the entire site. Such a condition has been added. It is therefore recommended that the applicant be required to submit landscaping plans for ALRC approval prior to the issuance of grading permits.

SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND GOLF COURSE SOUTH: VACANT, VILLAGE COMMERCIAL LANDS EAST: CONVENIENCE STORE AND VACANT VILLAGE COMMERCIAL LANDS WEST: EISENHOWER DRIVE AND GOLF COURSE BACKGROUND: The proposed project occurs on the north side of Calle Tampico, and is bounded on the west by Eisenhower Drive and on the east by Avenida Bermudas. The land is currently generally vacant, and has been in agriculture. The Specific Plan includes four components: a single family residential project with keyed rooms on 21 acres; a retail commercial component on 2.5 acres; an office commercial component on 3.0 acres; and a commercial/ parking component on 6.5 acres. Only two of these are under review with this Village Use Permit: the residential and commercial office components. The other two will be reviewed independently as application is made. 031 REQUEST: The proposed Village Use Permit is for the development of the majority of the site for residential use with keyed rooms, on the western half of the site, and corporate offices for the applicant at the southeastern corner of the site. The review also includes conceptual landscaping plans submitted for the perimeter of the site. The residential proposal calls for three building types, all two and three stories, in the Mediterranean style. The landscaping plan, however, is not of sufficient detail to determine its adequacy. The commercial office component of the project proposes a single story building extending to 21 feet, with a tower element in the center, which is proposed to extend to 35 feet. The landscaping) plan submitted is also not of sufficient detail to determine its adequacy. FINDINGS: The Committee is required to comment on the following findings: Architectural Design - The architectural design of the project, including but not limited o the architectural style, building mass, materials, colors, architectural details, roof style, and other architectural elements are compatible with the surrounding development and with the quality of design prevalent in the city. The building architecture is similar to the Mediterranean architecture found elsewhere in the City. The applicant has provided considerable articulation on all sides of the buildings, which will create visual interest and break up the building mass. The buildings will be smooth trowel finished stucco, and will include multi -paned windows, tile roofs, arched windows and wrought iron accents along balconies. Doorways are also proposed to be recessed under archways, to provide shaded entries and added visual interest. The color palette is proposed to be neutral, and consist primarily of earth tones. The commercial office component proposes a single building, in a similar architectural style. Although much simpler in design than the residential component, a similar smooth trowel finished stucco will be utilized, and archways, shutters and multi -paned windows are also proposed for this structure. The roof will be tile, and the colors proposed are earthtones. The tower element at the center of the building provides some bulk, and breaks up the facade. Landscape Design - Project landscaping, including but not limited to the location, type, size, color, texture, and coverage of plant materials has been designed so as to provide relief, complement buildings, visually emphasize prominent design elements and vistas, screen undesirable views, provide a harmonious transition between adjacent land uses 032 and between development and open space, provide an overall unifying influence, enhance the visual continuity of the project, and complement the surrounding project area, ensuring lower maintenance and water use. The landscaping plan has not been detailed in the materials submitted. The plant palette is acceptable, but the size, distribution, location of plantings, location of walls and berming have not been provided. Finally, the submittal does not demonstrate that perimeter landscaping will be completed for the entire site. Such a condition has been added. It is therefore recommended that the applicant be required to submit landscaping plans for ALRC; approval prior to the issuance of grading permits.

A ±5,000 SQUARE FOOT BANK FACILITY WITH THREE DRIVE -THROUGH LANES; AND, 2. A ±5,000 SQUARE FOOT TEMPORARY BANK FACILITY WITH A SINGLE DRIVE -THROUGH LANE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF WASHINGTON STREET AND 47T" AVENUE (SPECIFIC PLAN 2000-049) MIXED/REGIONAL COMMERCIAL (M/RC) REGIONAL COMMERCIAL (RC) The applicant has proposed a ±53,000 square foot specific plan, to be known as the La Quinta Professional Plaza. The project is to be located at the southeast corner of 47' Avenue and Washington Street. Palm Desert National Bank (PDNB) will be Phase 1 of the overall development. PDNB is requesting establishment of a temporary office facility while their permanent structure is being constructed. Therefore, architectural review of both the temporary and permanent facilities is required. The applicant requests approval to set up an approximate 1,380 square -foot modular bank building, in the southwest corner of the C:\W rkgrp\Stfrpt\ALRCsdp691. wpd 040 project site (the permanent facility is proposed in the northwest portion of the site). The structure will be metal sided with a matching box mansard roof, both painted in desert tones. The main entry door will be dual -glazed thermopane glass, with tinted bronze frames. There is no covering proposed for the drive -through lane, which wraps around the building along the Washington Street (rear) elevation. The entrance is also uncovered, and is located in the center of the east (front) elevation. All mechanical equipment for HVAC will be exterior wall -mounted on the north elevation. Proposed on -site landscaping for the site consists of 36" box California Peppers, Bottle trees and Weeping Wattle, oriented along the drive through lane and surrounding the bank structure. The temporary site is located on a future office pad; the permanent landscaping concept differ from that proposed here. However, the permanent parkway landscaping will be installed with the temporary facility, as per the overall concept plan. The permanent bank facility will be located at the northwesterly corner of the specific plan site. The proposed pitched roof incorporates two tower elements; one is a mission tile, copper sheet -capped hexagonal rotunda at a height of 23', the other is a stone and tile tower element at the west end of the south building elevation, at a height of 24'. The building architecture utilizes smooth texture plaster, deep recessed overlays and natural stone elements. Color tones for building surfaces are in shades of brown, with more reddish -brown shades used to accent lower and upper portions of the building elevations. An extended flat -roofed portico structure is proposed over the east side drive -through lanes. Decorative light fixtures, cornice and coping treatments are used on the textured plaster support sections. Wainscot areas are accented in a ruddy -brown adoquin stone, with the exception of the drive through portico. The bank drive -through lanes are located along the east elevation, and not visible from Washington Street. Turfed areas are primarily located in the parkways as berms. The bank building elevations show some use of boulder clusters along Washington Street. Proposed on -site landscaping for the site consists of several tree species (24" to 48" box containers) for the parking lot and around the buildings. Desert climate groundcover and shrubs are provided throughout the project site. MANDATORY FINDINGS As required by Section 9.210.010 (Site Development Permit) of the Zoning Ordinance, the Committee: is required to review and comment on the following findings: C:\Wrkgrp\Stfrpt\ALRCsdp691 . wpd 3. The architectural design of the project, 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 the quality of design prevalent in the City. Support: The proposed permanent bank building is architecturally compatible with existing commercial buildings in the area through its architectural style and use of materials and colors. Building elevations provide interest by varying roof heights, enhanced building entries, wainscot locations and horizontal plant -on banding. Roof elements, as proposed, will screen any mechanical equipment within the roof structure, as required by the Zoning Code. The temporary structure is consistent with the character of prior approvals for similar uses and structures, and will be limited to a specified period of time. As such, the aesthetic impacts of the use are limited to the relatively short duration of the use. 4. Project landscaping, including but not limited to the location, type, size, color, texture and coverage of plant materials, has been designed so as to provide visual relief, complement buildings, visually emphasize prominent design elements and vistas, :screen undesirable views, provide a harmonious transition between adjacent land uses and between development and open space, and provide an overall unifying influence to enhance the visual continuity of the project. Support: Landscape improvements are designed to minimize emphasis on the temporary project features and are sized to provide visual appeal. Shrubs and trees are situated to screen the drive -through lane and temporary structure. Staff recommends that the parkway section adjacent to the temporary site be required to adequately transition into the existing parkway landscaping to the south. The permanent overall site landscaping utilizes various tree species in the parking areas and around building pads to provide necessary shading. The parkway improvements incorporate berms to aid in the screening of parking areas and accentuate views of the building architecture. Recommend to the Planning Commission approval of Site Development Permit 2001- 691, subject to the following conditions: C:\W rkgrp\Stfrpt\ALRCsdp691 .wpd n42 1. Prior to issuance of a building permit, the landscape plan shall be designed to provide a visual transition to the existing parkway scheme along Washington Street.
