requirements of "The Rules to Implement the California
Environmental Quality Act of 1970" (County of Riverside,

measures identified in the EIR would address the potential
impacts of Tentative Tract #21846; and,

WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, said Tentative
Tract Map No. 21846 was approved by the La Quinta City Council
based on said findings and subject to certain conditions; and,
WHEREAS, the original Applicant, the Sunrise Desert
Partners, has applied for this second Extension of Time for
Tentative Tract 21846, in accordance with Section 13.16.230 of
the La Quinta Municipal Code relating to time extensions on
tentative maps; and,
WHEREAS, the La Quinta Planning Commission, on
October 10, 1989, did find the following facts to justify
recommending approval of said extension of time:
1. That Tentative Tract No. 21846, as conditionally
approved, is generally consistent with the goals,
policies and intent of the La Quinta General Plan,
and the standards of the Municipal Land Division and
Land Use Ordinances.
2. The subject site is physically suitable for-the
proposed subdivision.
3. That the design of Tentative Tract Map 21846 will
not conflict with easements, acquired by the
public-at-large, for access through the project
since alternate easements for access and for use
have been provided that are substantially equivalent
to those previously acquired by the public.
4. The environmental impacts associated with the
proposed project have been adequately addressed in
the certified Environmental Impact Report prepared
for the entire PGA West Specific Plan. The
significant impacts presented by this project will
be appropriately mitigated though conditions of
approval for the project to the extent feasible.
5. Adherence to the current and proposed changes to
conditions of approval will ensure that the project
will not be likely to cause substantial
environmental damage and that impacts on wildlife
habitat will be mitigated to the extent feasible.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Planning
Commission of the City of La Quinta, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations
constitute the findings
in this case;
are true and correct and
of the Planning Commission
