CITY OF LA QUINTA
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
This is to request a Substantial Conformance Review of a revised setback under the Eden Rock Specific
Plan 83-002, Amendment#6. We propose a side yard setback modification to accommodate a non -
habitable pedestrian portico on the Haciendas residences of the Signature project in Tentative Map
36537, Site Development Permit 2013-924.
The Haciendas product, with its front doors located on the side of the structureabout half way back.
from the front of the house, was planned with an access and use easement over one lot to the
neighboring lot, similar to a Z-lot use but on a standard lot. The original architecture anticipated this
unique access with an entry portico, designed with fire resistive construction assemblies and materials.
No changes are proposed, to the approved architecture or street scene.
The Specific. Plan allows 4` side yard setbacks and the Signature approvals established 5' side yard
setbacks, which Haciendas meets with the exception of the open porticos. We propose to reduce the
side yard setback to 0' for the portico only. No changes to the text of the Specific Plan are proposed.
The proposed modification to Exhibit 11a is enclosed. The revised Exhibit 11a: would be inserted at Page
29 under Section 3.1:1.E. Planning Area III -Eden. Rock, Development Standard of the Specific Plan. An
exhibit typical: showing: the most extreme setback reduction is also enclosed:
5927 Priestly Drive, Suite 110, Carlsbad,. CA 92008
(760) 918-6768
This request meets the circumstances under General Plan Program LU-2.2.c as follows:
Circumstance
Proposed Change -
When changes to the land use allocation are less
than 5%;
No changes to land use'allocation are proposed;
When offsite circulation patterns and turning
movements will not be altered by the proposed
change;
Circulation patterns and turning movements will
not be altered by the proposed change;
When the change is minor in nature and does not
conflict with the purpose and intent of the Specific
Plan; or
The proposed change is minor and maintains the
purpose and intent of the Specific Plan; and
When no new land use is proposed.
No new land use is proposed.
Based on the foregoing, we respectfully request administrative approval by the Planning Director of the
setback modification as proposed.
Should you have any questions or need further information, please don't hesitate to contact me.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 31, 2014
TO: Les Johnson, Director
FROM: Wally Nesbit, Principal Planner
RE: PLCR 14-0002, Specific. Plan Conformance Review, SP 83-002, Amendment #6
Background
California West Construction has submitted a Conformance Review request for the PGA West
Specific Plan, SP 83-002, related to Amendment#6 as approved in April 2008 for the Eden Rock
' project. The applicant requests that the City consider modification of the 4-foot sideyard
setback requirement applicable to the Hacienda product, to allow up to a zero side setback.
This would allow for a portico feature, which consists of a partially enclosed entry feature
leading to the Hacienda unit's main entry at the side of the house (shown on attached precise
grading plan example).
The City must consider whether the request conforms to the General Plan's policies regarding
Specific Plan Amendments, and whether the request is consistent with the requirements of
Specific Plan'83-002, as amended.
Analysis
The following analysis is provided to address the proposed change in the Specific Plan.
General Plan Consistency
'General Plan Policy LU-2.2 and Program LU-2.2.c address Specific Plan changes as follows:
"The Planning Director has the authority to waive the need for a Specific Plan amendment under
the following circumstances:
• When changes to the land use allocation are less than 5%;
The applicant proposes no changein land use allocation. This change is being made to'adjust a
setback requirement for a land use already anticipated and approved in the PGA West Specific
Plan.,
• When the off -site circulation pattern and turning movements will not be altered by the
proposed change;
The proposed setback modification to Table 3, Exhibit 11 of the Specific Plan will have no
impact on circulation patterns or turning movements.. The proposed change will not change the
number of units permitted in Planning Area. III.
• When the change is considered minor in nature and does not conflict with the purpose
and intent of the Specific Plan. The proposed incorporation of a zero setback to Table 3 of the development standards for
Planning Area III will simply allow implementation of the Hacienda product type which was.
reviewed and approved as being consistent with the existing specific plan, as it was configured
for Eden Rock. The development standards as applied to the Signature project product line
required interpretation as the Signature product varies from the units approved for Eden Rock
(i.e. courtyard/townhouse to single family detached). This demanded a certain amount of
interpretive flexibility in application of the development standards to the Hacienda, Estate and
Villas product. In that context, the proposed zero setback for what is essentially a covered
entryway that represents a small area of encroachment, is considered a minor variation from
the existing development requirements of the Specific Plan.
When no new land use is proposed.
The setback reduction has no impact on land use in the Specific Plan. The Hacienda units are
unchanged from the originally approved units with exception of the small entry portico.
Specific Plan 83-002, Amendment #6
The Specific Plan (Section 3.3.1) addresses how amendments to the Specific Plan are to be
undertaken, and when a Specific Plan Amendment is not required (Section 3.3.1.A). A Specific
Plan Amendment is required:
"If it has been determined that a proposed change is not in conformance with the intent of the
current Specific Plan approval, the Specific Plan may be amended in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Chapter 9.240 of the City of La Quinta Zoning Code.
The proposed setback reduction for the Hacienda units is in conformance with the intent of the
Specific Plan. The Hacienda units were determined to be consistent in design and with the
intent of the Specific Plan as part of their approval, along with the Estates and Villas products.
This setback allowance will not affect the intent or purpose of the Hacienda unit design as a
single family detached floor plan, only to allow flexibility in its siting on each lot.
A Specific Plan Amendment is not required when:
• The addition of new information to the Specific Plan maps or text that do not change the
effect of any regulation...
The proposed setback reduction does not change the effect of the sideyard setback regulation,
in that the zero setback applies only to non -habitable space under the provision to maintain a
3.5' minimum clearance between buildings and/or walls. As the intent of the sideyard setback
regulation is being maintained, the reduction in the standards in this case is considered
consistent with the intent of the Specific Plan, as approved.
Conclusion
On the basis of the analysis provided above, the requested Substantial Conformance Review
can be supported.
