BY THE PGA WEST STADIUM COURSE AND
CLUBHOUSE, AND ON THE SOUTH AND WEST BY PGA
BOULEVARD
CASE NO.: TENTATIVE TRACT MAP 33226
APPLICANT: PACIFIC SANTA FE CORPORATION
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta,
California, did on the 8t' day of January, 2008, hold a duly -noticed Public Hearing
to consider a recommendation to the City Council for the approval of a Tentative
Tract Map to allow the subdivision of a 42-acre parcel into a 290-unit residential
condominium project, including a guard gatehouse and recreation complex, on ±42
acres, located within the PGA West development, bounded on the north and east
by the PGA West Stadium Course and clubhouse, and on the south and west by
PGA Boulevard, more particularly described as:
LOT K AND PORTION OF LOT 1, TR 29421;
PORTION OF PARCEL 7, PARCEL MAP 20426
WHEREAS, said Amendment have been filed concurrently with a
General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Specific Plan Amendment, Site
Development Permit and a Development Agreement and in whole represents the
development permit application for the project as contemplated; and,
WHEREAS, the Department has prepared a Draft Subsequent
Environmental Impact Report ("Draft 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, which reviewed and considered the information contained in
the Draft SEIR prior to its recommendations to the City Council on the project
applications; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Department did publish a public hearing
notice in the Desert Sun newspaper, on the 15" day of December, 2007, as
prescribed by the Municipal Code, with public hearing notices mailed to all property

owners within 500 feet of the property in question, as well as to all other property
owners within the boundaries of the PGA West Specific plan area; and,
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, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments of all interested persons desiring to be heard, the
Planning Commission did make the following mandatory findings to justify a
recommendation of approval of the Tentative Tract Map:
1. Tentative Tract Map 33226 is consistent with the La Quinta General Plan,
and Specific Plan 83-002, Amendment No. 6, as proposed. The Tentative
Tract Map is consistent with the Resort Mixed Use (RMU) land use
designation as set forth in the General Plan, as amended by General Plan
Amendment 2006-107, and is consistent with the Resort Mixed Use land
use designation as set forth in Specific Plan 83-002, Amendment No. 6, as
proposed. Tentative Tract Map 32266 subdivides the 42-acre site into
residential condominium sites. The RMU designation permits mixed -use
developments that include single- and multi -family residential, and
condominium development.
2. The design and improvement of Tentative Tract Map 33226 are consistent
with the La Quinta General Plan, and Specific Plan 83-002, Amendment No.
6, with the implementation of recommended conditions of approval to ensure
proper street widths, perimeter walls, and timing of their construction, as
well as adequate storm water drainage, street and other infrastructure
improvements. The Draft SEIR requires specific off -site improvements to
mitigate traffic -related impacts from this project. These improvements have
been incorporated into the approval conditions for the Project, and identified
in the Draft SEIR. The project density is consistent with the La Quinta
General Plan and the PGA West Specific Plan, as amended, in that the
development density of 6.93 units per acre is comparable to existing
residential development within PGA West, which, when based on net
density, ranges approximately between four to seven units per acre
throughout several areas of the PGA West Specific Plan.

3. The design of Tentative Tract Map 33226 and proposed improvements are
not likely to cause substantial environmental damage, nor substantially and
avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. No significant biological
resources have been identified to exist on the site. The Project site does not
contain and is not proximate to any wetland, blue -line stream, marsh, vernal
pool or other wildlife habit. The Project will not routinely use or transport any
hazardous material(s), nor are there any hazardous materials identified to
exist on the Project site. The Subsequent EIR prepared for the Project, which
includes Tentative Tract Map 32266, determined that there are no significant
impacts to air or water quality, biological or cultural resources, geology and
soils which can not be mitigated to less than significant levels, with
incorporation of recommended mitigation measures into the Project, which
has been required.
4. The design of Tentative Tract Map 33226 and type of improvements are not
likely to cause serious public health problems, in that this issue was
considered and addressed in the Subsequent EIR prepared for the Project.
The Project will not routinely use or transport any hazardous material(s), nor
are there any hazardous materials identified to exist on the Project site. The
Subsequent EIR prepared for the Project, which includes Tentative Tract Map
32266, determined that there are no significant impacts to air or water
quality, geology soils, or other significant health or safety -related impacts
which can not be mitigated to less than significant levels, with incorporation
of recommended mitigation measures into the Project, which has been
required.
5. The design and improvements required for Tentative Tract Map 33226 will
not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access
through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. There is an
existing portion of an easement for Avenue 56, and several utility easements
that exist on the property. These easements will be relocated, retained or
abandoned as appropriate in order to maintain public access as determined to
be necessary in context with the Project and surrounding existing
development. The project is surrounded by improved land which is not under
control of the applicant, and which, as part of its development, has
previously obtained any necessary means of access. All necessary right-of-
way for construction of off -site improvements associated with this parcel
will be provided as required under the La Quinta General Plan and the
approval conditions of this Project.
