STUDY SESSION
1. DISCUSS CALLE TECATE PARKING SURVEY RESULTS
Management Specialist Ferreira, City Engineer Bryan McKinney, and Traffic
Engineer Steve Libring presented the staff report, which is on file in the Clerk’s
Office.
Council discussed the survey results based on resident feedback regarding
whether or not to keep the parking on the north side of the street; the total
number of parking spaces along Calle Tecate; widening the road would require
using conservation land; and reasons for the reported collisions along this
street segment.
Mayor Evans noted for the record that written comments were received by
Marc Berger and Bill Cranham, both La Quinta residents, in support of
removing the parking along the north side of Calle Tecate, replacing it with a
bike lane, and reducing the speed limit to 30 miles per hour.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Noble Mandeville, La Quinta – said he has lived in the area
for a long time; folks who park in the designated area are a nuisance to the
residents; spoke in support to eliminate the parking on the north side of Calle
Tecate, and move it to the south side or to the existing parking lots; and said
implementing additional stop signs would not provide a solution.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Jeff Smith, La Quinta – said he is a member of the Steering
Committee with the Cove Neighborhood Association; adding more stop signs
has not been discussed with residents; the Steering Committee is in support
to eliminate the parking and have bike lanes on both sides of the street, which
would achieve the desired results by residents; commended the City for
installing a parking lot; and residents are supportive to remove the parking
because the safety gained outweighs the inconvenience of having guests that
won’t be able to park along the street.
12
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 7 of 8 MARCH 5, 2019
Council discussed the existing traffic survey allows Staff to reduce the speed
limit from 35 to 30 miles per hour; residents are affected by the speeding on
Calle Tecate; the recommended solution options do not have to be
implemented at the same time and can be phased out; eliminating parking
along Calle Tecate will possibly move the noise nuisance up north into the
Avenidas; the land to the west is conservation land and would require approval
from wildlife agencies in order to convert it into a public parking lot; benefits
of moving the parking to the south side of the street; selecting one option
does not preclude implementing the other options at a later time; and timeline
on installing a restroom at the top of the Cove.
Council reached a consensus to move forward and lower the speed limit from
35 to 30 miles per hour.
Council provided general support to remove the parking along Calle Tecate all
together and gather community feedback to evaluate results and how it is
received by residents; and identify the land owners to the west of the existing
parking lot and what would be the approval process to build another parking
lot.
PUBLIC HEARINGS – None
DEPARTMENTAL REPORTS
All reports are on file in the City Clerk’s Office.
1-A. CITY MANAGER – MOBILE HOME PARK CODE ENFORCEMENT
City Manager Spevacek presented the departmental report which is on file in
the Clerk’s Office.
Council discussed the need for additional staff resources in order to assume
code enforcement responsibility from the Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD); the City can notify HCD of any violations,
and it is within HCD’s purview to determine if there are violations per state
regulations and seek remedy from the mobile home park owner; if the City
assumed code enforcement, it would be limited to imposing state regulations
only; any interested party can file a complaint and HCD has an obligation to
respond; compensation for acting as the enforcement agency is minimal and
it is listed in state code; and looking into drafting an ordinance to identify the
enforcement limitation under state law.
Council reached a consensus and directed Staff to send out a letter to HCD
listing the City’s concerns regarding the condition of the mobile home park
and why and inquire when it was last inspected by HCD; and to identify the
13

resources needed to assume enforcement responsibility and the limitations
under state law the City would be subject to.
1-B. CITY MANAGER – CITY BOUNDARY ADJUSTMENT – CV LINK

CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING COMMISSION
Mr. Rangwala said Rangwala’s team is very excited about the opportunity to
work with the City; understands the importance of the Corridor for La Quinta’s
fiscal health; the team members’ experience and competencies are very well
aligned with the scope of the project; and spoke about recent projects the
firm has completed.
General joint discussion followed regarding the components necessary to
realize connectivity and walkability along the Highway 111 Corridor (Corridor);
creating brand identity and experience through landscape and architectural
plan and design; importance of shade because of the hot desert weather;
strategically phasing shade structures with landscape design; use of lights as
an affordable and creative option to create visually appealing effects; access
to CV Link; alternative transportation options and depot areas; partnering with
local transit agencies to explore solutions for first-mile – last-mile challenges
to increase use of public transportation; need to improve signage along the
Corridor; utilize the seas of asphalt to create positive experiences; the
experience defines the brand and establishes the City’s identity; and the
importance to keep an open mind and be innovative, engage the community
and business owners, and balance regulations with the ability to stay flexible.
Mr. Rangwala said a step in developing the Area Plan is to meet with the
Planning Commission and Council to introduce Rangwala’s team, provide a
forum for engagement, and seek input, which will be incorporated in the
development of the Area Plan; the design process includes holding a
community workshop in March, followed by a three-day charrette in April, an
intensive planning session where citizens and other interested community
members share ideas, give feedback to the designers, and collaborate on the
vision of the Corridor.
General joint discussion followed regarding the scope of work Rangwala
Associates would conduct, which would include an analysis of the existing 11
Specific Plans along the Corridor and how they would interact with the
visioning and design of the Area Plan; schedule of performance; and total
contract amount.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Bradon Welker, Development Team with Sunridge
Properties, Arizona – said Sunridge Properties has a pending application with
the City for a hotel development along Highway 111 and spoke in support of
developing an Area Plan for the Corridor.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Dale Tyerman, La Quinta – commended the City for
initiating the revisioning of the Corridor; said he avoids Highway 111 because
signage is not very good and stores are set back so far in that it is difficult to
determine where to turn to get to where you are going; the Corridor is
16
SPECIAL JOINT MEETING Page 3 of 3 FEBRUARY 12, 2019
CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING COMMISSION
utilitarian – it’s functional, but it does not feel like La Quinta, the branding of
the City’s image needs to be integrated in the Corridor.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Leila Namvar, La Quinta – said the Corridor is very
functional and it offers a lot of variety within a single mile, but because of the
high concentration of business, it lacks the experience; revisioning the
Corridor can bring magic into the experience, make it more urban and inter-
connected; suggested looking into designating land uses for the City’s streets;
and noted she was pleased with the discussion tonight and the plan going
forward.
The following City Staff provided comments regarding the Corridor’s economic
development opportunities; need for redesign to incorporate new trends of
connectivity to accommodate pedestrians and alternative transportation uses;
integrate the City’s brand and image; and strike a balance between business
and regulations to ensure safety and compliance, and go-away from being
only auto-centric:

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: March 19, 2019
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: ADOPT RESOLUTION DESIGNATING SPEED LIMIT FOR CALLE
TECATE FROM AVENIDA BERMUDAS TO AVENIDA MADERO
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution designating a new posted speed limit of 30 miles per hour
for Calle Tecate, from Avenida Bermudas to Avenida Madero.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
•The City Traffic Engineer recommended that the 2016 speed survey for
Calle Tecate between Avenue Bermudas and Avenida Madero be re-
evaluated due to the recent traffic calming analysis.
•The speed survey accounts for: 1) prevailing speed, 2) accident history,
and 3) roadway characteristics.
•The roadway characteristics support a posted speed limit of 30 versus the
current 35 miles per hour.
FISCAL IMPACT
Replacing these signs will cost $250; Gas Tax funds are available in the Traffic
Control Signs budget (201-7003-60429).
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
To enforce speed limits using radar, speed limits must be set in accordance with
the California Vehicle Code (CVC). Per the CVC, vehicle speeds are determined
by the behavior of a majority of drivers during normal driving conditions.
Jurisdictions may not establish arbitrary speed limits.
In 2016, the City retained Willdan to survey speeds on Calle Tecate, from
Avenue Bermudas to Avenida Madero. The City Traffic Engineer recommended
this speed survey be re-evaluated when it was discovered that the sight
distance was limited, a condition that is not readily apparent to drivers, which
allows the City Traffic Engineer to recommend a 5-mph reduction using
engineering judgement. The 2016 Engineering and Traffic Survey presents the
following recommended speed limit for this roadway segment:

The lay-out for this custom playscape, design number C18157SPR3_19, has been configured to meet the requirements of the ASTM F1487 standard. In
addition, each of the above components listed as "Certified" have been tested and are IPEMA certified. Components listed as "Not Applicable" do not fall
within the scope of the ASTM F1487 standard and have not been tested. IPEMA certification can be verified on the IPEMA website, www.ipema.org. In the
interest of playground safety, IPEMA provides a Third Party Certification Service which validates compliance.
The CO2e (carbon footprint given in Kilograms and Metric Tons) listed above is a measure of the environmental impact this play structure represents from
harvesting raw materials to the time it leaves our shipping dock. Playworld Systems nurtures a total corporate culture that is focused on eliminating carbon
producing processes and products, reducing our use of precious raw materials, reusing materials whenever possible and recycling materials at every
opportunity. Playworld Systems elected to adopt the Publicly Available Specification; PAS 2050 as published by the British Standards Institute and
sponsored by Defra and the Carbon Trust. The PAS 2050 has gained international acceptance as a specification that measures the greenhouse gas
emissions in services and goods throughout their entire life cycle.
The lay-out was also designed to meet the 2010 Standards published 15-Sep-2010, by the Department of Justice when installed over a properly maintained
surfacing material that is in compliance with ASTM F1951 "Accessibility of Surface Systems Under and Around Playground Equipment" as well as
ASTM F1292, "Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials Within the Use Zone of Playground Equipment", appropriate for the fall height of the structure.
Installation times are based on one experienced installer. A crew of three experienced individuals can perform the installation within the given time, each
member working 1/3 of the given hours. [Eg. Installation Time = 30 hours. For a crew of three, each member will work 10 hours on the installation for a
total of 30 hours on the project.]
A measurement, in pounds, that qualifies the amount of material that was captured as waste and diverted from landfill during an initial manufacturing
process and is being redirected to a separate manufacturing process to become a different product. E.g. 100% of our Aluminum Tubing is made from
captured waste material during the manufacturing process of extruded Aluminum products such as rods, flat bars and H-channels.
A measurement, in pounds, that qualifies the amount of material that was once another product that has completed its lifecycle and has been diverted from
a landfill as a solid waste through recycling and is now being used in a Playworld Systems' product. E.g. **20% to 40% of the steel in our steel tubing and
sheet steel have been diverted from landfills. Automobiles are scrapped and recyclable steel is purchased by the steel mill that produces our raw product.
** The amount of Post-Consumer recycled steel fluctuates daily based on the availability of the recycled steel.

and/or conditions that adversely affect the cost of the project which were not disclosed by Customer in writing prior

32. UTILITIES: Utilities include but are not limited to water, sewer, gas, electricity, irrigation lines & wiring, data,
phone, drainage lines, etc. To minimize damage to utilities, Customer shall mark, cap or relocate all underground
utilities that are located within the work area, prior to the start of work. Pacific Play Systems, Inc. and its
subcontractors shall do their best to minimize damage to underground utilities that are identified by the Customer
prior to the start of construction. However, should unintended damage occur due to site operations, repairs or
relocation of underground utilities shall be excluded from the scope of our work. If utilities are damaged, Customer
shall repair, replace or relocate them at Customer’s cost as soon as possible to minimize delays. At Customer’s
request, repairs may be made to damaged utilities by Pacific Play Systems, Inc. or its subcontractors at an additional
cost of actual cost plus 20%.
33. UTILITY LOCATING SERVICE: For projects requiring excavation, prior to the start of work, Customer shall
either clearly mark underground utilities and their depth, hire a utility locating service to locate them or authorize
Pacific Play Systems, Inc. to hire a utility locating service to do so. Locating underground utilities is not an exact
science and sometimes they are missed by utility locating companies or locations are not accurate, leading to
unintended damage during excavation. Also, PVC or plastic pipes cannot be detected by these companies.
Therefore, some potential damage to utilities should be expected. If utilities are damaged, Customer shall hold
Pacific Play Systems, Inc., its subcontractors, employees and officers harmless as it relates to any potential
damages or liabilities. If underground utilities are damaged, regardless of whether a utility locating service was hired
or not, Customer shall be responsible for the cost of their repair, replacement or relocation.

Systems, Inc. Material warranties are provided by the supplier of materials and not by Pacific Play Systems, Inc.
When available, Pacific play Systems, Inc. shall provide copies of equipment and material warranties to Customer
upon request. Pacific Play Systems, Inc. shall warrant all Labor provided in the Scope of Work for a period of one
year from the date of completion.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: March 19, 2019
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: CONSIDER PARTICIPATING IN THE 2019 INDIAN WELLS LA
QUINTA IRONMAN 70.3 TRIATHLON
RECOMMENDATION
Provide direction regarding participating in the 2019 Indian Wells La Quinta
Ironman 70.3 Triathlon.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On December 9, 2018, over 2,400 athletes competed in the inaugural
Indian Wells La Quinta 70.3 Ironman (Event).
There were no fatalities or major injuries, however, there were major
traffic disruptions and extensive delays.
The City of La Quinta, City of Indian Wells, Ironman, and La Quinta Police
Department held extensive after-Event meetings to dissect the issues,
respond to resident reaction, and evaluate impacts.
These meetings plus further public input resulted in new proposed routes
that were developed to improve north/south circulation and access while
minimizing impacts.
Transient occupancy tax receipts were 11% or $80,000 greater in
December 2018 than December 2017; year to year sales tax information
will be available in April 2019.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost would be $75,000; Ironman pays for police, traffic control,
production, and permitting. Funds are available in the 2018/19 budget -
$37,500 in the Community Experiences account (101-3003-60149) and
$37,500 in the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) incentive account (101-1007-
60536).
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
In December 2017, Council approved a three-year agreement to co-host the
Indian Wells La Quinta 70.3 Ironman. This Event was held on December 9,
2018. Event related lane closures constrained traffic flow resulting in major
BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 1
61
traffic congestion and anguished residents. Following the Event, staff
responded to at least 45 phone calls, 85 emails, and 5 walk-in meetings.
Additionally, the City sent out a direct mailer to the entire community
apologizing for these impacts.
Subsequently, meetings were held with the City of Indian Wells, Ironman, and
La Quinta Police Department (LQPD) to address the issues and develop new
route options. After extensively reviewing eight route options, two route
options (Attachment 1) were proposed for a potential bike route through La
Quinta. Both routes avoid Washington Street to allow north and south access
across the City, improve traffic circulation to reduce congestion, provide easier
access to the Highway 111 corridor, and provide better neighborhood ingress
and egress.
La Quinta, Ironman and Indian Wells’ staffs and LQPD presented these route
options at four recent community workshops where they heard the negatives,
positives, suggestions, and concerns from residents. Approximately 60 people
attended these workshops. Attachment 2 presents the information that was
considered for both the routes and the outreach efforts (Attachment 2).
A public outreach guide (Attachment 3) was prepared, which summarizes
planned outreach efforts. It includes circulating detailed digital and non-digital
maps, mailers, flyers and signs, numerous GEM Publications, weekly team
phone calls, and in person meetings with homeowner associations. The public
outreach effort would be immediately initiated if Council elects to participate
in Ironman 2019. City staff would also work closely with neighboring
jurisdictions on route coordination, and with all regional entities on
outreach/communications.
Ironman Event Timeline If Approved
March 19 – Council direction
March 20 – Community outreach efforts commence
May 31 – Traffic control finalized
All permits secured - October 2019
Event - December 8, 2019
Financial Impact
Staff reviewed credit card sales transactions for December 2017 and
December 2018 utilizing Visa Vue data from the Greater Palm Springs and
Visitors Bureau for Indian Wells and La Quinta. Staff also tabulated and
compared transient occupancy tax (TOT) income for the same period. The
results are listed below:
December 2017 December 2018
Sales: $96,703,956 Sales: $102,522,588; 6% increase
# of Cardholders: 512,309 # of Cardholders: 528,996
TOT: $707,267 TOT: $787,598; 11% increase
62
Sales tax income data will be available in April 2019; the State accounts for
and disburses sales tax revenue quarterly, 90 days after the previous quarter
ends.
The City’s total Event expenditures were $102,270, which included the
$75,000 participation fee, the one-time a pro rata share of the cost to
purchase marine safety equipment for use at Lake Cahuilla of $21,500, and
$5,770 for resident mailers. Ironman paid for all Event related police, traffic
control, production, and permitting.
La Quinta is a Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL) city, events like this support
health initiatives, and provide economic benefit for the region. The Event
contributed to the City’s fitness and wellness brand and, according to Ironman,
conservative estimates indicate that the economic benefit other host locations
receive is $3,500,000 to $7,000,000.
ALTERNATIVES
Council may elect to modify the plan or not participate, which would end the
City’s involvement in the 2019 Event.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: March 19, 2019
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE X-PARK DESIGN; APPROPRIATE $300,000 FROM
MEASURE G RESERVES; AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE
A CONTRACT AMENDMENT WITH SPOHN RANCH FOR A NOT TO EXCEED
AMOUNT OF $3,057,000
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the X-park design; appropriate $300,000 from Measure G reserves;
and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract amendment with Spohn
Ranch for a not to exceed amount of $3,057,000.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
•In October 2017 Council reviewed a feasibility study by Spohn Ranch for
an extreme sports facility (XPark).
•In January 2018 Council reviewed operations and management costs.
•On June 5, 2018, Council approved a Design/Build Agreement with
Spohn Ranch.
•The cost ($3,057,000) to construct the final design (Attachment 1) is
9% or $257,000 greater than the estimated/contract cost of
$2,800,000.
•If the Council approves the final design, $300,000 must be appropriated
from Measure G reserves and the Agreement with Spohn Ranch must
be amended.
•If the Council elects to add any of the additional features outlined in this
report, then additional funds must be appropriated.

The project budget is $3,501,639 with $3,400,000 appropriated from Quimby
Funds (once reserved for a regional park) and $101,639 from the Community
Center Developer Impact Fee (DIF) fund. Both of these funds can only be
used for capital costs associated with new park and recreational facilities, and
not for maintenance and operations.

$180,000 per year and would be paid through the General Fund.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The City currently has two neighborhood skate parks at La Quinta Park
(12,000 sq. ft.) and Fritz Burns Park (5,000 sq. ft.).
In October 2017, Spohn Ranch presented a feasibility study during a Council
Study Session that identified:
• Examples of national and regional skate parks;
• An analysis of regional and local skateboard/scooter/BMX demand,
which was translated into a proposed XPark size of 30,000 sq. ft.;
• A summary of features, amenities, and size from the user outreach
meeting;
• An analysis of two potential sites with the preferred site at the La Quinta
Housing Authority property located on the southeast corner of Westward
Ho (Black Hawk Way)/Dune Palms Road; and
• A preliminary cost breakdown totaling $3.4 million.
Council provided input on the size, location and amenities and directed staff
to research the options and costs to manage/operate the proposed facility.
74
In January 2018 Council discussed the potential XPark operations and annual
cost. The consensus was to create a supervised facility managed by an outside
contractor who specializes in operating and promoting these types of facilities.
The advantages for contracting include:
•Supervision for safety and organized activities;
•Operating hours after school until 10 PM;
•User sign-in and data base for KPI and Social Networking;
•Pro shop for concessions, equipment rental, and purchase;
•An estimated $180,000 annual operations cost;
•Liability costs are covered by contractor;
•Reduction in vandalism and graffiti; and
•Routine maintenance, minor repairs, and graffiti removal are performed
by the contractor.
On June 5, 2018, Council approved a Design/Build Agreement with Spohn
Ranch (Project 151609) with a not to exceed amount of $2.8 million. The
balance ($700,000) of the $3.5 million budget was designated to purchase the
required property from the Housing Authority, and fund light and sound impact
studies. Additionally, a water retention basin is being constructed adjacent to
the same location to accept storm water from Westward Ho Drive.
Spohn Ranch subsequently designed the facility based on user input from
outreach meetings from the Community Services Commission, Planning
Commission, and City Council. This version was presented again at a user
outreach meeting on February 11, 2019. Some minor modifications were
made. If constructed, the final design park would be the largest skate park in
the Coachella Valley. With a pump track, this would be one of the largest
facilities in California. Highlights of the $3,057,000 design include:
•31,000 sq. ft;
•20 parking stalls;
•1,400 sq. ft. pro-shop with restrooms;
•Bowls and features for beginners, advanced, and professional users;
•Perimeter landscaping (desert efficient); and
•Energy efficient/programmable lighting.
Additional considerations that are not included in the $3,057,000 cost include:
•Pump Track for $360,000

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: AUTHORIZE SUBMITTAL OF THE GENERAL PLAN ANNUAL
STATUS AND HOUSING ELEMENT PROGRESS REPORTS TO THE OFFICE OF
PLANNING AND RESEARCH AND THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND DETERMINE THE ACTION IS NOT A PROJECT
AS DEFINED IN SECTION 15478(b)(2) OF THE PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize submittal of the General Plan Annual Status Report and the Housing
Element Annual Progress Report to the Office of Planning and Research and State
Department of Housing and Community Development; and determine the action
is not a project as defined in section 15378(b)(2) of the Public Resources Code.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
•State Law requires incorporated communities to adopt a General Plan that
regulates the land development within the city’s boundary and sphere of
influence.
•The 2035 La Quinta General Plan (General Plan) was adopted by Council
on February 19, 2013.
•A General Plan Annual Status Report (Report) was prepared to update the
Planning Commission and Council on implementation.
•The Housing Element Annual Progress Report (Housing Report) has been
prepared in compliance with the 2017 SB 35 and AB 879 Housing Package,
which requires all cities to provide an annual housing update.
FISCAL IMPACT – None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
California Government Code Section 65300 requires the City prepare and adopt
a comprehensive, long-term General Plan. The General Plan addresses lands
within the City’s boundaries and its sphere of influence (Attachment 1). Staff
prepared this Report to inform the Planning Commission (PC) and Council on the
status of the General Plan implementation. As a Charter City, preparation and
submittal of a Report to the Office of Planning and Research (OPR) is optional.
BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 3
83
The Report was prepared according to the guidelines established by OPR and
provides General Plan implementation status since adopted on February 19,
2013. The report reviews all goals, policies and programs for the mandated
elements: Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open Space, Safety,
and Noise (Attachment 2). Additionally, the Report reviews all optional elements
such as the Livable Community, Economic Development, Parks, Recreation, and
Trails, Air Quality, Biological Resources and Cultural Resources elements.
General Plan implementation occurs regularly by all City Departments through
the development and implementation of City programs, and review of
development projects for consistency with the Land Use and Circulation
Elements. The PC and Council are responsible for making General Plan
consistency findings upon consideration of development projects.
Implementation of General Plan goals, policies and programs may require new
initiatives that extend beyond the development review process. Significant
implementation efforts include the adoption of Zoning Map and Zoning Text
Amendments for General Plan consistency and annual development code tune-
ups. Other implementation efforts include:
•Preparation of the Highway 111 Corridor area plan to implement land use
and economic development goals to facilitate existing businesses and
attract new business by maintaining flexible land use standards;
•Pursuing funding to prepare a Citywide Active Transportation Plan to
implement circulation goals by promoting active transportation;
•City-sponsored events in various areas of the City to implement economic
development goals to attract visitors to the area;
•Enforcement and collection of transient occupancy tax (TOT) from Short-
term Vacation Rental Program to implement economic development goals
and while maintaining quality of life in residential neighborhoods;
•Washington Street Apartments rehabilitation/additional unit development
to implement housing goals and progress towards regional housing needs;
•Installing new pickle ball courts and Cove trailhead improvements that
promote the health and well-being of the community.
Preparing and submitting the Housing Report to the Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD) and OPR is required by all cities pursuant to SB
35 and AB 879, enacted in 2017.
Codified as Government Code 65400, this legislation requires cities to prepare
an annual Housing Element Progress Report that outlines annual building
activity, housing development applications received, and progress towards
achieving a city’s regional housing needs allocation (Attachment 3). The City
has made significant progress towards achieving its regional housing needs
allocation; approximately 83% (302 units) of the City’s 364-unit regional
allocation goal has been met for this housing cycle (2014-2021).
84
Council may elect not to authorize submittal of the reports to OPR and HCD or
may request modifications to the reports.

CompleteThe City’s General Plan is proposed to be updated during the planning period, beginning in late 2009. The update process provides an ideal opportunity to investigate potential land and policy resources for new housing construction. Policy H-1.2Focus housing growth within existing City boundaries until it is necessary to pursue annexation or development in planning areas for affordable housing.No changeProgram H-1.2.aWhile the development capacity of land identified in the vacant and underutilized land inventory has the potentialto meet RHNA under current zoning designations, upzoning key sites will increase capacity and may facilitate thedevelopment of housing affordable to a range of incomes.No changeProgram H-1.2.bSmaller homes on smaller lots create potential for market--driven affordable housing to be developed in LaQuinta, and is an appropriate form of housing for first--time homebuyers, small households, and seniors. Theordinance would create additional housing potential on small infill sites. Such an ordinance would includeconsideration for incentivizing small lot developments such as fee reductions, flexible development standards,allowances for small--lot, market--rate projects to utilize parking and other development--related density bonusincentives usually reserved for affordable projects, and expediting review of small--lot subdivision maps.Complete.

No changeProgram H-1.5.aThe recent downturn in the market reduces competition for purchasing vacant and underutilized residential sites. Land costs are a critical concern for the affordable housing development community. By purchasing land as it becomes available, the Redevelopment Agency will be able to provide sites at low or no cost to the developer for the purpose of subsidizing development to meet the RHNA. For example, the Agency sold a 15--acre site to Coachella Valley Housing Coalition for $1 to develop Wolff Waters Place, a project providing 218 affordable units completed in 2009. The City will continue to acquire and consolidate parcels associated with Site U8, in particular related to continuing discussions with the owners of the existing 10.3 acre trailer park.Ongoing.

Program H-1.5.b...An Affordable Housing Overlay (AHO) would permit higher density development to occur in specific parts of theCity provided the residential project dedicate at least 25 percent of the housing for lower income households.Property owners would not be required to develop affordable housing on their sites; however, projects that do sowould be permitted to develop housing at densities of 20–24 units per acre. Moreover, the 24 unit per acre densitywould serve as the base level for the application of a density bonus under State law. Projects with an affordabilitycomponent under 25% could be granted specific density bonus incentives they may not otherwise qualify for.Under existing provisions, affordable housing projects would be eligible for an additional 35 percent density bonusand could reach a maximum of just over 32 units per acre. Projects developed under the AHO would require adensity of at least 20 units per acre. The AHO would also set forth financial and other incentives that could bemade availate services that help a person maintain a stable, housed, life. This use is not currently addressed in theZoning Code.In addition, the City will process affordable projects on AHO sites at a priority or ‘fast track’ level, andwill consider flexible development standards that exceed the allowances under density bonus provisions, given the appropriate project....Complete. Mixed Use added to Zoning in 2017Program H-1.5.cResidential uses at 20 to 24 units per acre will be permitted in several commercial zones (Program 1.5) and onspecific residential sites following standards similar to those established for the High Density Residential zone.Higher density housing and vertically mixed--use development, including affordable housing projects, maybenefit from regulations tailored to this use, especially with regard to parking standards.Complete.

City Manager's office works with developers for potential affordable development regarding available incentives. Washington Street apartment construction begins March 2018Program H-2.3.fAffordable Housing Renter--to--Owner Transition Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) provides federal tax credits for private developers and investors that agree to set aside all or a portion of their units for low income households. LIHTC projects can transition from rental to ownership units. The units must remain rentals for 15 years, at which time some projects convert to ownership units. Typically a portion or all of the rent paid for the 5 years prior to the conversion is put toward the purchase of the unit. This enables lower income households to invest in the property in which they have been living and benefit from its appreciation.On-going. City Manager's office coordinates to obtain tax credits to support affordable housing development. Washington Apartments is a tax credit project and the tax credits were awarded September 2017.Program H-2.3.gThere are many resources that the City, nonprofits, or for--profit developers may utilize to subsidize the construction and maintenance of affordable housing. Some of the most prominent resources are described below.On-going.

Program H-3.3.dThere are several potential opportunities to reduce parking standards for special types of development in La Quinta. While the City already has special parking standards for multifamily senior housing, there is potential to further reduce those requirements, particularly for lower and moderate income senior housing.The compact, mixed--use character of the Village area may also foster opportunities for parking reductions or joint--use opportunities. Lower and moderate income households may own fewer vehicles than above moderate income households, and be more inclined to walk or use public transportation. Incentives such as reduced parking requirements could be offered for affordable housing developments.Complete. Zoning update in 2017 included reduced parking standards. Staff will monitor future citywide use of autonomous vehicles and identify further reductions that can be supported.Program H-3.3.eSeveral small lots in the Village Commercial would have improved development potential through lot consolidation.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: March 19, 2019
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE 2019 LEGISLATIVE POLICY GUIDE UPDATES
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Legislative Policy Guide updates and authorize the Mayor, one
Council Member, and City Manager to issue letters within the scope of these
policies.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
•The updated 2019 Legislative Policy Guide (Guide) presents the
Council’s position on proposed legislation and allows the City to weigh
in on legislative matters that may impact the City.
•The Guide has been updated to incorporate legislative proposals that
surfaced this calendar year and includes proposed legislation that would
the City in areas such as transportation, public works, community
development, public safety and the environment.
•The Guiding Principles presented in the Guide serve as the Council’s
direction on pending legislation and enable staff to immediately respond
to proposed legislation in a timely matter.
FISCAL IMPACT – None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The legislative landscape is constantly changing, producing pending legislation
that may impact the City’s ability to conduct business and provide services.
The Guide (Attachment 1) enables the City to have a voice on emerging issues
and allows staff to take immediate action on pressing legislation. Current
issues before the legislature that may impact the City are:
•AB 10 (Chiu) Income taxes: credits low-income housing: farmworker
housing – bill would increase the State’s Low-Income Housing Tax
Credit by $500 million to build and rehabilitate much needed affordable
housing. These state tax credits will leverage additional federal tax
credits and tax-exempt bond authority, which will help build
significantly more units. It will also spur economic activity, creating
additional jobs and contribute to state and local tax revenues.
BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 4
143
• AB 147 (Burke) Use taxes: collection: retailer engaged in business in
this state: marketplace facilitators - Modernizes California law
consistent with the United States Supreme Court holding in Wayfair,
which allows this state to impose a use tax collection duty on remote
retailers with specified levels of economic activity in California, even
though they do not have a physical presence here.
• AB 1657 (Garcia)- Salton Sea: Office of the Salton Sea: Salton Sea
Oversight Committee – The Salton Sea Restoration Act requires the
Secretary of the Natural Resources Agency, in consultation and
coordination with the Salton Sea Authority, to lead Salton Sea
restoration efforts. This bill would establish an Office of the Salton Sea
within the Natural Resources Agency. The bill would require the
secretary to establish a Salton Sea Oversight Committee.
• AB 854 (Mayes) Imperial Irrigation District: Retail Electric Service: bill
would require the membership of the board of directors of IID to
increase from 5 to 11, with the 6 additional directors meeting certain
qualifications, including that each be a resident of and qualified to vote
in the County of Riverside.
The Guide presents the policies that guide the City’s legislative advocacy
initiatives which include: enhance local authority, sustain fiscal responsibility,
foster economic development, promote health and wellness, support public
safety, and encourage preservation of the environment.
In addition, the Guide provides an overview of important legislative
developments arising in 2019 and connects them to emerging trends in our
area. It also itemizes the Council’s policy position on key legislative areas
such as economic development, finance, transportation, and public safety
among others.
The City receives informational updates on legislative efforts through a variety
of channels, including the League of California Cities, City lobbyist Gonsalves
and Son, and the City Attorney. Gonsalves and Sons provide weekly phone
updates with staff and Legislative Reports with an overview of each bill and
current status.
ALTERNATIVES
As the Legislative Guide is a resource for both Council and Staff to expedite
responses on legislative matters, staff does not recommend an alternative.

2019 LEGISLATIVE POLICY GUIDE
The Legislative Policy Guide (Guide) is a tool for the City to navigate through the legislative landscape. This
document details the City’s policy positions on priority issues and provides a comprehensive approach to
allow staff to take immediate action on pressing legislation under City Council direction. The guide
identifies legislative trends and active legislation that may have an impact on the City’s interests and
affairs, and supplements other Council-established goals and policies. It is intended to be updated on a
regular basis.
GUIDING PRINCIPLES
I. Enhance Local Authority
The City of La Quinta is a charter city that supports legislation aimed at preserving local
authority. Additional regulation or mandates that undermine local control are detrimental to quality service
delivery.
II. Sustain Fiscal Responsibility
The City of La Quinta has been able to successfully maneuver through redevelopment dissolution and
economic downturn through prudent, disciplined spending and cost-effective stewardship of City
resources. Therefore, the City supports measures that promote fiscal stability.
III. Foster Economic Impact
The City of La Quinta generally supports legislative efforts designed to foster economic development tools
and funding options for effective service delivery.
IV. Promote Health and Wellness
The City of La Quinta actively seeks to promote a healthy and vibrant community that provides various
recreational activities and opportunities for residents to enjoy the unique benefits of La Quinta.
V. Support Public Safety
The City of La Quinta strongly supports community safety by providing high quality law enforcement and
fire services and maintaining health and safety standards for its residents.
VI. Encourage Preservation of Environment
The City of La Quinta is a thriving desert oasis that supports a proactive and thoughtful stance regarding
the enhancement and conservation of the desert environment that surrounds us including the Salton Sea.
146
The Guide is to intentionally promote the adoption of legislation that will establish sound public policy for
responsible governance; protect and enhance public health, safety and welfare; and aid the City’s delivery
of high quality services to its residents.
The Guide is intended to articulate the City’s positions on issues that are currently, or are anticipated to be,
the focus of future legislation.
The positions contained in the Guide are intended to supplement the broad range of goals, policies and
programs reflected in the General Plan, the Municipal Code, and other adopted documents. Therefore,
advocacy efforts may be based on references articulated in these policy documents as they provide
current direction for the City organization.
City departments are encouraged to review proposed legislation to determine how it relates to the City’s
Legislative platform and recommend a position that they determine to be “high priority” and recommend
that the Mayor write letters, contact legislators, and otherwise communicate the position of the City as
appropriate. The Mayor, or designee, after conferring with City Manager, may authorize staff to make
contact with legislators to advocate for or against legislation which is consistent with the City’s legislative
platform.
147
LEGISLATION IMPACTING US
The public policy landscape is constantly changing and it is incumbent on the City to stay up to date on the
latest developments. Anticipating the effects emergent legislation may have on the community is therefore
imperative. Below is a short outline of impact in key areas.
TRANSPORTATION & PUBLIC WORKS
This bill would establish the California Smart City Challenge Grant Program to enable municipalities to
compete for grant funding for emerging transportation technologies to serve their transportation system
needs and would specify certain program goals. The bill would require the commission to form the California
Smart City Challenge Workgroup on or before July 1, 2020, to guide the commission on program matters, as
specified.
AB 659 (Mullin) - Transportation: Emerging Transportation Technologies:
California Smart City Challenge Program
Governor's Transportation Budget:
The Governor’s budget provides a total of $23.5 billion from all fund sources for the state’s transportation
departments and programs in 2019‑20. This is a net increase of $1.4 billion, or 6 percent, over estimated
expenditures for the current year. Specifically, the budget includes $14.6 billion for the California
Department of Transportation, $2.8 billion for local streets and roads, $2.8 billion for the California Highway
Patrol (CHP), $1.2 billion for the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), $1 billion for transit assistance, and
$1.1 billion for various other transportation programs.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
AB 147 (Burke) Use Taxes: Collection: Retailer Engaged in Business in this
State: Marketplace Facilitators.
This bill is a measured approach to California’s implementation of the landmark US Supreme Court holding of
South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc., (2018). The implementation of the Wayfair decision will result in the collection
of hundreds of millions of dollars for state and local agencies from out of state and Internet-based sales. This
measure will help level the playing field for brick and mortar retailers and is an improvement over CDTFA’s
proposed implementation of Wayfair based upon existing law.
AB 10 (Chiu) Income Taxes: Credits Low-income Housing: Farmworker
Housing
This bill would increase the State’s Low-Income Housing Tax Credit by $500 million to build and rehabilitate
much needed affordable housing. These state tax credits will leverage additional federal tax credits and tax-
exempt bond authority, which will help build significantly more units. It will also spur economic activity,
creating additional jobs and contribute to state and local tax revenues.
148
PUBLIC SAFETY
Existing law authorizes a medicinal cannabis licensee to sell or transfer cannabis or cannabis products to a
person who is 18 years of age or older and who has a medicinal cannabis card or a referral from a physician
or who is the primary caregiver for a person with a medicinal cannabis card or a referral from a physician.
Violation of these provisions may result in a felony charge and the suspension, revocation, or probation of
the commercial cannabis license and specified fines. This bill would make technical, no substantive changes
to these provisions.
AB 3 (Cooper) - Cannabis: Sale to Minors
AB 1657 (Garcia) - Salton Sea: Office of the Salton Sea: Salton Sea
Oversight Committee
The Salton Sea Restoration Act requires the Secretary of the Natural Resources Agency, in consultation and
coordination with the Salton Sea Authority, to lead Salton Sea restoration efforts. This bill would establish an
Office of the Salton Sea within the Natural Resources Agency. The bill would require the secretary to
establish a Salton Sea Oversight Committee.
ENVIRONMENT
AB 854 (Mayes) -Imperial Irrigation District: Retail Electric Service
This bill would require the membership of the board of directors of the Imperial Irrigation District to increase
from 5 to 11 members, with the 6 additional directors meeting certain qualifications, including that each be a
resident of and qualified as eligible to vote in the County of Riverside. The bill would authorize the district
board to adopt a resolution decreasing the number of directors and the divisions from which they are
elected from 11 to 5 if a public utility district is formed that provides electricity outside the territory of the
Imperial Irrigation District and consists of a board of directors with a majority of seats representing the
County of Riverside.

The City entered into reimbursement agreements with nine development
entities who constructed improvements for the benefit of the City in anticipation
of being reimbursed at a later date from development impact fees. In 2017 the
Council set reimbursement priorities; 9 of 11 developers submitted the required
documentation and have been included in the approved repayment plan
(Attachment 4).
Projects on the Horizon
The CIP also identified future year projects; those that may be of particular
interest to the Council entail the following:
•Monroe Street Pavement Rehabilitation (Avenue 52 to Avenue 53; and
Near Ave 61) (2020/21)
•Dune Palms Road Pavement Rehabilitation (Fred Waring Drive to Miles

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: March 19, 2019
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: DISCUSS PARK LIGHTING AFTER CURFEW HOURS
RECOMMENDATION

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
•Per La Quinta Municipal Code (Code), City park lighting turns off at 10:00
PM.
•Due to safety concerns, Council would like to consider extending lighting
parks until dawn.
•Staff inquired with other Coachella Valley cities regarding park lights after

FISCAL IMPACT
Additional electric costs incurred by operating park lights through the night and
the costs for additional wear and replacement of the lighting is to be
determined. Park operational costs are funded by the General Fund. The current
annual budget is $2,070,500.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS

at all parks, sports fields, parking lots, restrooms, and walkways are tuned off
at 10:00 PM to as part of enforcing the curfew.
Due to recent safety concerns at La Quinta Park, Council directed staff to
review leaving the park lights on throughout the night. Staff contacted
neighboring cities regarding their park lighting policies; the following cities
responded:
•City of Coachella – parking lot, walkway, and security lighting remain on
till dawn.
•City of Indio – parking lot, walkway, restroom, and shelter lights remain
till dawn. Sports fields and basketball/tennis court lights turn off at
10:00 PM.

park lights turn off at 10:00 PM.
•City of Rancho Mirage – all park lighting turns off at 10:00 PM.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
DEPARTMENT REPORT
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Gil Villalpando, Assistant to City Manager
DATE: March 19, 2019
SUBJECT: CITY OF INDIO 2 X 2
During a recent Council meeting, Council members suggested that
instituting 2x2 meetings with the City of Indio may improve
communications between neighboring cities. The City currently
participates in 2x2 meetings (involving 2 elected officials each and
respective staff) with the Coachella Valley Water District, Desert Sands
Unified School District, and Desert Recreation District; the City
previously conducted said meetings with Coachella Valley Unified School
District. The meetings are held quarterly with agendas prepared in
advance with items of mutual interest submitted by both entities.
Should this be amenable to Council, staff is seeking Council direction on
two of its members to be appointed to this committee. This item would
be scheduled for the April 2, 2019 Council meeting for action. Staff
would also contact the City of Indio to ascertain their interest in holding
these meetings.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
DEPARTMENT REPORT
TO: Madam Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Chris Escobedo, Community Resources Director
DATE: March 19, 2019
SUBJECT: REGIONAL PARKS MASTER PLAN AND SURVEY
On February 15, 2019, the City and Desert Recreation District (DRD)
held a 2x2 meeting. Council Members Radi, Fitzpatrick and City staff
met with DRD Board Member Acosta and their staff. DRD is working with
local cities and the County on a regional park master plan, which will
identify known park space and future recreation needs.
As part of their master plan effort, DRD is preparing a Coachella Valley
wide telephone survey to better understand residents’ needs and desires
for parks and recreation facilities, programs and services. Residents of
La Quinta and all desert communities will be surveyed.
DRD has requested the City’s financial participation in the amount of
$11,500 to share in the survey cost. If Council choses to contribute, the
City would receive a customized report based on the survey responses
from La Quinta residents; the City would also be able to customize the
online survey. DRD indicated that regardless of the City’s decision, they
plan to move forward with the survey effort.
If Council decides not to participate financially, City staff could still be
involved in the master plan discussions. DRD would share Coachella
Valley wide survey results, however, the data would not be La Quinta
specific.
Staff is seeking Council direction on DRD’s financial request and whether
or not City staff should participate in the master plan effort.
