NORTHWEST CORNER OF HIGHWAY 111 AND ADAMS STREET WITHIN THE 111 LA QUINTA CENTER. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT (EA 89 -150) WAS APPROVED FOR THE OVERALL 111 LA QUINTA CENTER BY THE CITY COUNCIL AT THEIR MEETING OF APRIL 17, 1990. THEREFORE, NO FURTHER ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW IS DEEMED NECESSARY. This plot plan request was approved by the Planning Commission on May 14, 1991, and accepted by the City Council on May 21, 1991. The plan provides for a six pump gasoline service station and self service drive through car wash. Additionally, there will be a small mini- market /office provided (see attached reduced plans) . The Applicant has prepared final working drawings and landscaping plans for the project. However, they have indicated in their letter of request that due to budgetary constraints it appears that it will be necessary to delay actual construction till 1993. Therefore, the Applicant has asked for an additional one year time extension for this approval. The Applicant has indicated that should their budgetary situation change in the next few months, they will keep this project as a top priority and move forward more quickly than currently anticipated. CONCLUSION: Staff has sent out for comments regarding this time extension. The only comment received back was regarding Arts in Public Places. Staff understands that there may be future proposals for additional public art within this shopping center. Therefore, Staff would like to recommend a condition that indicates that if the developer of this shopping center requests the inclusion of art work on or adjacent to this property, Shell Oil Company will cooperate and participate in the placing of said art piece'. PCST.060 . i r 0 i Staff feels that the granting of this time extension is warranted provided the above condition is imposed. Should this service station not be constructed immediately, it will not be detrimental to the overall design and operation of the shopping center. RECOMMENDATION: By Minute Motion approve a one year extension of time for Plot Plan 91 -460 subject to existing conditions and new Condition #33. Attachments: 1. Letter of request dated April 3, 1992. 2. Reduced plan exhibits. 3. Conditions of Approval.

Box 4848 511 N. Brookhurst Street Anaheim, California 92803 � APR 0 6 1991 1 piou) PL.A.!�`w4. t E T The subject PLot Plan was formally approved by the Planning Commission on May 14, 1991. Since that time we have been actively involved in completing the building permit processes and the building permits are now ready for issuance. Shell has also finalized its specific development agreements with the Seller/Developer of the One Eleven -La Quinta Center and we should close on our land purchase -prior to the end of April, 1992. We look forward to moving ahead with the service station project. However, we have budgetary constraints for 1992 that may make it necessary to delay actual construction until 1993. We normally have our new budget approved before the end of January each year and would be in a position to begin construction as soon thereafter as practical in 1993. In reality it may not be practical for us to be under construction much before the first of 1993 in any case. The CUP prohibits Shell's opening for business prior to the completion of Adams street. It would certainly be undesirable to have the station operational prior to the completion of Adams Street, the installation of the traffic signalization at the intersection of Hwy 111 & Adams and the completion of the street improvements along Hwy 111. As you know our CUP expires on May 14, 1992. One of the conditions of approval was the requirement that the plot plan be "used" within one year of Planning Commission approval. We respectfully request your concurrence for a one year extension of the approval of Plot Plan 91 -460. RD209401 - -1 We have worked closely with the City to bring to fruition a service station of extraordinary quality and design which can serve as a benchmark for other similar developments within the City of La Quinta in the future. We fully intend to see this project through to completion. We simply need some additional time in which to do so. Should our budgetary situation change in the next few months we will certainly keep this project as a top priority and move forward more quickly than currently anticipated. We appreciate your past cooperation and thank you for your kind consideration. If you have any questions please feel free to call me toll free at 1 -500 447 -4355 ext. 3324.

It will not be possible for Shell to be under construction prior to the expiration of the Plot Plan approval on May 14, 1992. We would not be able to do so based on the conditions of the plot plan approval regardless of our current budget constraints. It now appears, however, that I will receive a commitment for capital funds for construction of this project in 1992, in which case we will move forward expeditiously to completion. We will attempt to coordinate our construction efforts so we will be open for business in the same general time frame as the Wal -Mart project. Thanks for your kind consideration.

Since that time we have been actively involved in completing the building permit processes and the building permits are now ready for issuance. Shell has also finalized its specific development agreements with the Seller /Developer of the One Eleven -La Quinta Center and we should close on our land purchase prior to the end of April, 1992. We look forward to moving ahead with the service station project. However, we have budgetary constraints for 1992 that may make it necessary to delay actual construction until 1993. We normally have our new budget approved before the end of January each year and would be in a position to begin construction as soon thereafter as practical in 1993. In reality it may not be practical for us to be under construction much before the first of 1993 in any case. The CUP prohibits Shell's opening for business prior to the completion of Adams street. It would certainly be undesirable to have the station operational prior to the completion of Adams Street, the installation of the traffic signalization at the intersection of Hwy 111 & Adams and the completion of the street improvements along Hwy 111. As you know our CUP expires on May 14, 1992. One of the conditions of approval was the requirement that the plot plan be "used" within one year of Planning Commission approval. We respectfully request your concurrence for a one year extension of the approval of PLot Plan 91 -460. RD209401 - -1 We have worked closely with the City to bring to fruition a service station of extraordinary quality and design which can serve as a benchmark for other similar developments within the City of La Quinta in the future.
