Gentlemen:
Reference is made to Tentative Map of Tract 3994 proposing to subdivide a portion
of the 5E4 of Section 36, T5S R6E and the NE4 of Section 1, T6S R6E, SBBEM.
This proposed subdivision lies in the area that was formerlya..year-round fresh
water lake according to early settlers. Debris washed from adjacent mountains
has filled this lake and the process is continuing except at a somewhat "slower
rate because some of the debris can now flow southeasterly.
Previous subdivisions to the northeast have been approved by your commission
with a reservation that the minimum floor elevation of the house be set at an
elevation of ,+4 above sea level. This elevation is approximately 1.5
feet above the 1hwater. If this requirement is followed, this subdivision
will be safe from stormwater flows except in rare or unusual instances; however,
if subdivisions encroach upon the old lake and material is hauled in to fill to
elevation +46.0, the lake storage will be reduced resulting in higher flood
water elevation which would be hazardous to present developments in the low
area.
The District has made preliminary plans to protect the entire La Quinta area
from stormwater flows; however, no method of financing the construction has
been developed.
