DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
BY AND BETWEEN
THE
CITY OF LA QUINTA
AND
VPAH, LLC.,
A CALIFORNIA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY
24651015610-0125
2303172.6 al 2129/11
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
This Development Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into as of the S_�`day
of _F9 5. , 2012 ("Reference Date"), by and among the CITY OF LA QUINTA, a
California municipal corporation and charter city (the "City") and VPAH, LLC., a California
limited liability company (the "Developer"), with reference to the following:
RECITALS
A. Government Code Sections 65864-65869.5 (the "Development Agreement
Act") authorize the City to enter into a binding development agreement for the
development of real property within its jurisdiction with persons having legal or equitable
interest in such real property.
B. Pursuant to Section 65865 of the Government Code, the City has adopted
its Development Agreement Ordinance (La Quinta Municipal Code Section 9.250.030)
establishing procedures and requirements for such development agreements ("Development
Agreement Ordinance").
C. Developer owns the 0.35 acre parcel of real property ("Site") located at the
northeast corner of Eisenhower Drive and Avenida Montezuma, in the City of La Quinta,
County of Riverside, State of California, which Site is legally described in Exhibit "A"
attached hereto, and which is the subject of this Agreement.
D. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the City approved Village Use
Permit No. 2008-042 (the "VUP"), subject to conditions of approval. The VUP provides
planning and development criteria for a proposed project on the Site, which project is
commonly known as Village Park Animal Hospital (the "Project"). The Project will consist
of the development of the Site with an 8,752 square foot, 31 foot high, two-story animal
hospital with Mission -Contemporary styled architecture. The project site has an existing
building built in 1980 which will be demolished to construct the Project. The VUP is also
known as the "Development Plan".
E. The City's Municipal Code requires that a total of 29 parking stalls be
provided to service the Project. The Site is situated such that only 16 of the 29 required
parking stalls are available for the Project. Of these, 15 on -site parking stalls are provided
(including one ADA-accessible space and one golf -cart space) and credit is given for one
adjacent on -street parking space on Avenida Martinez for a total of 16 stalls provided. To
fulfill the remaining parking requirements for the Project, the VUP was conditioned on the
Developer entering a development agreement with the City to require the Developer to pay
a parking fee in exchange for crediting 13 parking stalls towards the Project. This fee is to
be used for future parking improvements in the Village Commercial zoning district.
Pursuant to Section 9.65.030 of the La Quinta Municipal Code, alternative parking
arrangements are permitted in the Village Commercial zoning district.
F. Consistent with Section 9.250.030 of the La Quinta Municipal Code, the
parties desire to enter into a binding agreement for purposes of (i) setting forth a per -
parking stalls payment for the Developer's payment to the City of certain fees for use in
connection with future parking improvements in the Village Commercial zoning district that
the parties agree are designed to compensate the City for (A) crediting 13 parking stalls
F�
towards fulfilling the Project's parking obligation; and (B) the potential added wear and tear
on the municipal infrastructure which will result from the Development Plan; 60 requiring
the Developer and its successors -in -interest to provide public parking on the Site; and (iii)
granting Developer a vested right to develop the Site according to the Development Plan.
G. Among other purposes, this Agreement is intended to be, and shall be
construed as, a development agreement within the meaning of the Development
Agreement Act. This Agreement will eliminate uncertainty in planning for and secure the
orderly development of the Project, ensure a desirable and functional community
environment, provide effective and efficient development of public facilities, infrastructure,
and services appropriate for the development of the Project, and assure attainment of the
maximum effective utilization of resources within the City, by achieving the goals and
purposes of the Development Agreement Act. In exchange for these benefits to City,
Developer desires to receive the assurance that it may proceed with development of the
Project in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
Development Plan, all as more particularly set forth herein.
H. The City Council has determined that the Project and this Agreement are
consistent with the City's General Plan, including the goals and objectives thereof.
1. All actions taken by City have been duly taken in accordance with all
applicable legal requirements, including the California Environmental Quality Act (Public
Resources Code Section 21000, at seq.) ("CEQA"), and all other requirements for notice,
public hearings, findings, votes and other procedural matters.
J. On January 3, 2012, the City Council adopted its Ordinance No. 495
approving this Agreement.

no longer uses the Site for the Project or is unable to obtain permanent financing for the
Project, provided that in either instance Developer must agree to rescind the VUP.

Agreement. In no event shall the City be entitled to consequential damages for any
Developer default. For purposes of this Agreement the term "consequential damages"

ORDINANCE NO. 495
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE
CITY OF LA QUINTA AND VPAH, LLC
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT 2011-022
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 65864 et seq. (the
"Development Agreement Law") authorizes cities to enter into binding development
agreements with persons having a legal or equitable interest in real property for the
development of such property, all for the purpose of strengthening the public
planning process, encouraging private participation and comprehensive planning,
and identifying the economic costs of such development; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta, California, did,
on the 27th day of September, 2011, certify an environmental determination and
approve Village Use Permit 2008-042 for the Village Park Animal Hospital under La
Quinta Planning Commission Resolution 2011-015, subject to conditions,
particularly Condition No. 4, requiring that a Development Agreement be prepared
for the project; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta did, on the 8 1h
day of November, 2011, hold a duly noticed Public Hearing to consider the
Development Agreement, and did in fact adopt Planning Commission Resolution
2011-017, recommending approval to the City Council; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of La Quinta, California ("City
Council"), did on the 20th day of December, 2011, hold a duly noticed public
hearing to consider the Development Agreement; and,
WHEREAS, at said City Council Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering
all testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons wanting to be heard,
said City Council did make the following mandatory findings to justify approving
the Development Agreement: I
1 The proposed Development Agreement is consistent with the objectives,
policies, general land uses and programs of the City of La Quinta General
Plan, and the Conditions of Approval for Village Use Permit 2008-042, as
approved and adopted under Planning Commission Resolution 2011-015.
2. � The land use authorized and regulations prescribed for the Development
Agreement are compatible with the zoning and its related regulations now
applicable to the property. The site is zoned Village Commercial, which
permits variations to the City's parking requirements. The proposed parking
Ordinance No. 495
Development Agreement 2011-022
Village Park Animal Hospital- VPAH, LLC
Adopted: January 3, 2012
Page 2
provisions of Village Use Permit 2008-042 ' in conjunction with approval of
this Development Agreement, will provide assurance that the intent of
applicable land use regulations are met by the project.
3. The proposed Development Agreement conforms to the public convenience
and the general welfare, by providing the means for public parking
improvements, and conforms to good land use practice by requiring an
acceptable alternative for the provision of parking, to accomplish
development of the contemplated commercial project.
4. Approval of this Development Agreement will not be detrimental to the
health, safety, and general welfare since adequate provision has been made
in previous City approvals, specifically Village Use Permit 2008-042, to
provide for necessary and desirable improvements, with these approvals
incorporated herein.
5. Approval of this Development Agreement will not adversely affect the
orderly development of the subject or surrounding property, nor the
preservation of area -wide property values, nor the quality of life within the
community, but conversely, will enhance them by encouraging planned,
phased growth.
6. Approval of this Development Agreement will have a positive fiscal impact
on the City, as it will provide supplemental funding towards necessary public
parking improvements in the Village at La Quinta, which might otherwise be
unattainable given currently available funding sources.
7. Consideration of this Development Agreement has been accomplished
pursuant to California Government Code Section 65864 et seq. and the City
of La Quinta Municipal Code Section 9.250.030, which governs
Development Agreements.
WHEREAS, all actions required to be taken by the City precedent to the
adoption of this Ordinance have been regularly and duly taken.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La
Quinta, California that it does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. APPROVAL. The City Council hereby approves and adopts the
Development Agreement in the form presented to the City Council concurrent with
the approval and adoption of this Ordinance, and authorizes and directs the Interim
City Manager to sign the Development Agreement on behalf of the City, and the
