(AMENDMENT 1) TO ALLOW A 94-LOT SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL LAND SALES SUBDIVISION ON
APPROXIMATELY 31.5 ACRES
CASE NO.: TTM 26444 (AMENDMENT 1, 2ND TIME EXTENSION)
APPLICANT: LA QUINTA 33, A MINNESOTA PARTNERSHIP
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta, California, did on
the 9th day of January, 1996, hold a duly noticed Public Hearing to consider the request of La
Quinta 33, a Minnesota Partnership, for a one year extension and map amendment of a
previously approved 98 lot single family subdivision of 31.5 acres, generally on the west side
of Jefferson Street, north of 53rd Avenue, more particularly described as:
BEING A SUBDIVISION OF THE NORTH % OF SECTION 9,
TOWNSHIP 6 SOUTH, RANGE 7 EAST, SAN BERNARDINO
MERIDIAN (APN: 769-290-008, 010)
WHEREAS, said Tentative Map has complied with the requirements of "The
Rules to Implement the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970" as amended (Resolution
83-63), in that the Community Development Director has determined that the original
environmental assessment approved in 1990, is still valid and binding on this development
request. Therefore, no additional environmental review is warranted; and,
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony
and arguments, if any, of all interested persons wanting to be heard, said Planning Commission
did find the following Mandatory Findings of approval to justify the recommendation for
approval of said Tentative Tract Map 26444 (Amendment 1, 2nd Time Extension):
A. The proposed map or vesting map is consistent with the City of La Quinta General Plan
and any applicable specific plans.
The project is in the Rural Residential Overlay of the 1992 General Plan Update;
therefore, all provisions of Policies 2-1.2.1 through 2-1.2.3 shall be met. Tentative
Tract 26444 (Amendment 1) is consistent with the goals, policies and intent of the La
Quinta General Plan provided conditions contained herein are required to ensure among
other things consistency with the General Plan and mitigation of environmental
consequences pursuant to Environmental Assessment 90-170.
The site is zoned R-1 (One Family Dwelling) which permits single family developments.
All plans for single family homes shall be consistent with the provisions of the Zoning
Code (e.g., specifically Chapter 9.32 et.seq.) in effect at the time building permits are
acquired. The development of the project, as conditioned, will be compatible with the
surrounding area.
Resolution 96-001
B. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the La Quinta
General Plan and any applicable specific plans.
All streets and improvements in the project conform to City standards of the General
Plan and Subdivision Ordinance as designed. All streets will be private. Access for the
single family lots will be provided from 53rd Avenue, a collector street. Secondary
emergency access is provided on Jefferson Street as conditioned. The density and
design standards will comply with the Rural Residential Overlay as designated by
General Plan Policies 2-1.2.1, 2-1.2.2 and 2-1.2.3.
C. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife
or their habitat.
The subject site is physically suitable for the proposed land division as approved in
1990. The original development plan will not cause substantial environmental damage
or injury to fish or wildlife, or their habitat because mitigation measures have been
required.
Before on -site grading begins, the applicant under EA 90-170 shall employ a qualified
archaeologist and paleontologist to conduct on -site research and review for prehistoric
remains. These findings shall be submitted, in report form, to staff. The consultant's
report shall indicate his, or her, findings and convey any important information about the
site or its development. Monitoring shall be required during site grading work, if deemed
necessary.
The redesign of the subdivision, as conditionally approved, will not cause serious public
health problems because urban improvements will be installed based on City, State, and
Federal requirements.
D. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements are not likely to cause serious
public health problems.
The revised design of the subdivision, as conditionally approved, will not cause serious
public health problems because they will install urban improvements based on City,
State, and Federal requirements.
Noise impacts from existing and future road noise on Jefferson Street shall be analyzed
and mitigation measures shall be employed to reduce exterior noise for those houses
along this major arterial street to levels consistent with Table EH-1 of Chapter 8 of the
General Plan (Environmental Hazards Element). The applicant's preliminary noise study
is required to be updated to conform with our 1992 standards, which require noise to
be less than 60 dB CNEL in outdoor areas (45 dB or less for interior areas).
E. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements will not conflict with easements,
acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use of, property within the
proposed subdivision.
Resolution 96-001
The proposed private streets will serve all single family lots. All required public
easements will provide access to the site or support necessary infrastructure
improvements. The future homeowners' association will maintain the private retention
basin located at the southeast corner of the site. A CVWD well site will also be
required.
WHEREAS, in the review of this Tentative Tract Map, the Planning Commission
has considered the effect of the contemplated action on housing needs of the region for
purposes of balancing those needs against the public service needs of the residents of the City
of La Quinta and its environs with available fiscal and environmental resources;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
La Quinta, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and constitute the findings of the Commission in this
case;
2. That it does hereby reconfirm the conclusions of Environmental Assessment 90-170 as
