COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMISSION AGENDA DECEMBER 10, 2018 City of La Quints COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMISSION STAFF REPORT REPORTS AND INFORMATIONAL ITEM NO. 1 December 10, 2018 AGENDA TITLE: SILVERROCK VENUE SITE MASTER PLAN REVIEW RECOMMENDATION Discuss the changes to the SilverRock Venue Site Master Plan that address the recommendations of the Financial Advisory Commission, the Planning Commission, and the Community Services Commission. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • In February 2018, Council assigned an Ad Hoc Committee to develop a Master Plan for the SilverRock Venue Site. The resulting Master Plan (Attachment 1) was then shared with the Financial Advisory Commission, the Planning Commission, and the Community Services Commission. • The Finance Advisory Commission (FAC) provided a letter of recommendations (Attachment 2) for the Venue Site Master Plan that was supported by the Planning Commission and the Community Services Commission. • On August 7, 2018, Council approved the SilverRock Venue Site Master Plan and adopted a resolution to approve the site development permit, including site architectural and landscape plans for an approximately 14- acre passive park venue. • The Ad Hoc Committee revised the Venue Site Master Plan to address the recommendations of the FAC and reconvened on November 13, 2018 for review. The SilverRock Venue Site Master Plan is again being presented to the Commissions before going to Council to approve the final plans and bid specifications. FISCAL IMPACT Construction costs are projected to be $6.0 million. This includes soft costs such as design, inspection, and contingency. If approved, the amended project budget would include the following funding sources: Funding Source Current Adjusted Measure G Reserves - 1,300,000 Quimby Fund 3,550,000 2,000,000 Park & Recreation DIF Fund - 2,400,000 Art in Public Place DIF Fund 100,000 300,000 TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET 3,650,000 6,000,000 An estimated $3.4 million in development impact fees are expected from the SilverRock Development Company. The annual maintenance and operations cost is estimated to be $149,500. This could be offset with rental income for public and private events. i3ACKGROU N D/ANALYSIS In July 2006, Council approved the Specific Plan (SP) for the SilverRock development which designates 35 acres as a community park for passive use. No conceptual park design was considered when the SP was approved. Special events described in the SP include public parking, automobile displays, art festivals, and corporate events in conjunction with the on -site hotel. As with all City Parks and facilities, each of these types of events will be subject to a temporary use permit from the City. A Purchase, Sale and Development Agreement, along with a statutory Development Agreement with SilverRock Development Company (SDC) was approved by Council to construct two hotels, a conference center, a new golf clubhouse, retail space, and resort residential uses adjacent to the event site. An estimated $3.4 million in development impact fees may be generated from this development. With the desire to create an event space that could accommodate events larger than the Civic Center Campus, the Council established an Ad Hoc Committee in February 2018. The Committee consisted of a Council Member, a Community Services Commissioner, Planning Commissioner, and representatives from Montage International and SilverRock Development Company. The Committee then worked with Hermann Design Group and Staff to create a site plan, budget, and construction timeline for the event site. The goal was to complete construction and have the event site operational for the 2020 La Quinta Arts Foundation's (LQAF) Arts Festival. The LQAF would like to continue holding the event at the Civic Center Campus, but access to the Campus will be restricted during the spring of 2020 due to scheduled street and intersection improvements and concurrent storm drain system improvements. The Committee prepared a master plan for approximately 14- acres of park space with walking paths, turf areas, sloped event lawn, a water feature, public art, a restroom building, and a modular building (Alongi). The proposed Master Plan was presented to the Financial Advisory Commission (FAC) on June 13, 2018. The FAC then submitted a letter to Council requesting consideration for additional park amenities that include restrooms, storage facilities, shade structures, and additional shade trees (Attachment 2). The FAC also requested a 10-year revenue projection. Staff consulted with Montage International and reviewed previous City events. A 10-year projection is difficult to determine because it is unknown what new groups and uses will be attracted to the new Venue Site. We do know the La Quinta Arts Festival currently generates approximately $66,000 in sales tax and business license revenue and is charged $25,000 (currently waived) for a temporary use permit. Additionally, the Venue Site operations cost is estimated to be $149,500 annually. The Planning Commission held a public hearing for the Venue Site Master Plan site development permit on June 26, 2018. The Planning Commission recommended Council approval and consideration of the FAC's request for additional park amenities. The Master Plan was then presented to the Community Services Commission who also supported the Planning Commission and the FACs' recommendations. On August 7, 2018, Council approved the SilverRock Venue Site Master Plan and site development permit. Council provided direction to revise the Master Plan to incorporate the recommendations provided in the letter from the FAC. The revised Master Plan includes one restroom facility and additional shade trees. An additional restroom, storage building, amphitheater, and more shade structures are listed as an add alternate. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Parking: A total of 1,156 venue parking spaces are proposed and include 210 designated spaces with a Class II road base surface, 330 spaces on a decomposed granite surface, 265 overflow spaces in the retention basin, and 351 at the adjacent Montage conference center. The 1,032 parking spaces the City provides for the LQAF Art Festival was the benchmark for this venue's parking. Operations Cost: Based on the Civic Center Campus, staff used the 2017/18 Campus operations costs to project the following operating costs for the event park: Landscape Maintenance $53,000 Electricity 30,000 Water 24,000 Personnel 19,000 Lake Service 8,400 Materials -Irrigation 3,600 Janitorial Service 3,000 Vehicle Operations 2,500 IT 2,400 Plant Replacement 1,400 Graffiti 1,400 Insurance 500 Tree Replacement 300 TOTAL $149,500 Development Costs: Based on Masterplan and not final drawings.

FAC Commissioners were asked to approve the Enhanced Plan, which utilizes $2.4M of Measure G Funds. This was the first time the FAC was consulted on this matter. One of the responsibilities of the FAC is oversight for the use of Measure G Funds. After much discussion, the FAC Commissioners are unanimous and enthusiastic in support of the concept for the Event Site. However, we expressed concern there was insufficient information for us to approve the Enhanced Plan. Our main areas of concern are as follows: ➢ Lack of information to determine whether the Enhanced Plan provided a state-of-the-art event site in one Phase. Y Lack of information on projected annual operating costs and potential revenues. FAC Commissioners requested additional information and selected fellow Commissioners Mills, Rosen and Batavick to meet with City Staff, and for one of these Commissioners to attend the next Ad Hoc Committee Meeting. On June 18, 2018, the three Commissioners met with City Staff. They were provided additional information on the Enhanced Plan, including details of both the capital expenditure and annual operating expense components. They also received additional information addressing other areas of FAC concern including; turf mitigation, Coachella Valley Water District issues, adequacy of Event Site to hold various entertainment events, ingress and egress options for people and vehicles and potential future Phases of the Event Site. Commissioner Mills attended the AD Hoc Committee meeting on June 18th. During the meeting he commented that the FAC felt the proposed Enhanced Plan may be "under built". He further remarked that the proposed plan should NOT be restricted by any hypothetical budget but rather should be guided by amenities that insure the Event Site is a first class facility from the outset with the ability to accommodate multiple types of events. The City needs to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity. Accordingly, the FAC supports additional shade structures, as well as providing adequate restroom facilities taking into account the demographics of our citizens and potential event attendees. The FAC would also recommend a 10-year revenue and expenditure projection. Based on our review of the Enhanced Plan, the FAC has the following recommendations: 1) Revise the current Event Site Enhanced Plan to include additional restroom and storage area facilities, a shade structure over the stage, more shade trees, and more shade structures, such as gazebos. Additional Measure G funds are available. Consider integrating the recently approved purchase of a modular building into a new Enhanced Plan. 2) Develop a plan for using Art in Public Places funds. Some art should be "children friendly." 3) Obtain specific recommendations and suggestions from potential users and sponsors of events. During the Ad Hoc Committee Meeting, it was mentioned GoldenVoice expressed an interest in the Event Site. This opportunity should be explored. 4) Investigate the potential of obtaining grant funds from the recently passed Proposition 68 or other public sources. 5) With estimated annual operating expenses of $150,000. prepare a 10-year projection showing estimated revenues derived from the La Quinta Arts Festival, other art shows, concerts, food -related events, etc. 6) Highlight the planned Event Site in the City's continuing marketing efforts. This addition of a new multi -purpose public park is very notable to our residents and to others outside our community. The Planning Commission will be meeting on June 261h for final review and their approval of an Enhanced Plan. The FAC requests the Planning Commission consider our applicable recommendations in their final review. The FAC will hold a Special Meeting on July 18th to review, for our approval, the Enhanced Plan approved by the Planning Commission at their June 26th Meeting. Other additional information will also be reviewed. We are prepared to answer any questions you may have on our observations and recommendations.

Juan has been a Fit after 50 Instructor for over 3 years at the La Quinta Community Fitness Center. Please see the attached document as a letter of support for Juan from the Community Services Coordinator for the La Quinta Fitness Center, Adam Encinas. _ October 30, 2018 I am excited to have the opportunity to nominate Mr. Juan Salas for the 2018 Senior Inspiration Awards. Mr. Salas volunteers his time at Desert Recreation District's La Quinta Community Fitness Center. For over 3 years Juan has been instructing the Riverside County Office on Aging Fit After 50 exercise class. When Juan began instructing the class it met for two sessions a week with anywhere from 15 to 30 participants per week. In his time as volunteer instructor the program has expanded to six sessions per week due to increased demand for more sessions and more Juan! His classes now have an average of 75 participants per week. Not only does Juan provide a positive fitness experience for our senior participants but also an amazing social experience. It is wonderful to see our participants exiting the facility with smiles, laughter, and chatter. The group can even be found after class once a month across the street at our local pizzeria enjoying great food and greater company. Juan is a lifelong resident of the Coachella Valley and a Navy veteran. He has also served as a care giver for some of our residents. Over the years I have known Juan he has enlightened me on so many stories and history of our valley. His eagerness to volunteer and help his community has been a lifelong venture and he is an inspiration to all of us here at the La Quinta Community Fitness Center.

Her medium, whether formulated as a T-shirt, a plaque, or an LED sign, is writing, and the public dimension is integral to the delivery of her work. Starting in the 1970s with the New York City posters, and continuing through her recent light projections on landscape and architecture, her practice has rivaled ignorance and violence with humor, kindness, and courage. Holzer received the Leone d'Oro at the Venice Biennale in 1990, the World Economic Forum's Crystal Award in 1996, and the Barnard Medal of Distinction in 2011. She holds honorary degrees from Williams College, the Rhode Island School of Design, The New School, and Smith College. She lives and works in New York. P %.
