APPROVING A SECOND TIME EXTENSION FOR
SITE DEVELOPMENT PERMIT 2014-1004, SITE,
ARCHITECTURAL, AND LANDSCAPING PLANS
FOR THE ESTATES AT CORAL MOUNTAIN
CASE NUMBER: SITE DEVELOPMENT PERMIT 2014-1004
EXTENSION 2 (SDP 2018-0013)
APPLICANT: SC HOMES FUND, LLC
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta, California
did, on the 8th day of January, 2019, consider a request by SC Homes Fund,
LLC for approval of a second two-year time extension for site, architectural,
and landscaping plans for the development of 24 single-family residential
homes, generally located on the northwest corner of Avenue 60 and Madison
Street, more particularly described as:
APN : 766-080-010 & 766-080-011
WHEREAS, upon considering the requested extension of time, said
Planning Commission did find the following facts, findings, and reasons to
justify approval of Site Development Permit 2018-0013, Extension 2 (SDP
2014-1004) :
1. Consistency with the General Plan
Site Development Permit 2014-1004, Extension 2 is consistent with
the La Quinta General Plan, as it proposes single-family residential
homes within a location which is designated in the General Plan for
Low Density Residential development.
2. Consistency with the Zoning Code
The proposed units, as conditioned, are consistent with the
development standards of the City's Zoning Code in terms of
architectural style, building height, building mass, and landscaping.
The community is consistent with the La Quinta Zoning Map, as it
proposes a single-family residential community which is designated
for Low Density Residential development. The site development
permit has been conditioned to ensure compliance with the zoning
standards of the Low Density Residential district, and other
supplemental standards as established in Title 9 of the La Quinta
Municipal Code.

3. Compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Processing of Site Development Permit 2014-1004, Extension 2 (SDP
2018-0013) for the proposed use is in compliance with the provisions
of the California Environmental Quality Act. The Design and
Development Department has determined that the time extension
request is consistent with Environmental Assessment 2004-504
prepared for this project. No changed circumstances or conditions
are proposed which would trigger the preparation of subsequent
environmental analysis pursuant to Public Resources Code Section
21166
4. Architectural ❑esicin
The architecture and layout of the units are compatible with, and not
detrimental to, the existing surrounding residential land uses, and is
consistent with the development standards in the Municipal Code.
The units are concluded to be appropriate for the proposed location,
and supplemental design elements (stone veneer accents, various
shades of tile roofing, etc.) appropriately enhance the architecture of
the units.
5. Site Design
The site design of the project, including project entries, interior
circulation, exterior lighting, and other site design elements are
compatible with surrounding development and with the quality of
design prevalent in the city.
6. Landscape Design
The proposed project is consistent with and implements the
standards for landscaping and aesthetics established in the General
Plan and Zoning Code. The project landscaping for the community,
as conditioned, shall unify and enhance visual continuity of the
community with the surrounding development. Landscape
improvements are designed and sized to provide visual appeal. The
permanent overall site landscaping utilizes various tree and shrub
species to blend with the building architecture.
