entered into as of the day of 20211 (the "Effective Date"), by and
between the CITY OF LA QUINTA, a lifornia municipal corporation and charter city
("City"), and LQ HOSPITALITY GROUP, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company
("Developer"), with reference to the following:
RECITALS:
A. The City is the owner in fee of that certain raw and unimproved real property
described as Parcel 2 of Parcel Map No. 37683 as recorded in the land records of
Riverside County, State of California, Map Book 246, Pages 87 through 88, located on
Highway 111, La Quinta, California 92253, APN 600-020-057, and more particularly
described in the legal description attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein
by reference ("City Property").
B. Developer is the owner in fee of that certain real property and all
improvements to the realty thereon located at 79675 Highway 111, La Quinta, California
92253, APN 600-020-056, and more particularly described as in the legal description
attached hereto as Exhibit B: and incorporated herein by reference ("Developer
Property"). The Developer Property has a fully entitled and constructed 108-room
business hotel, with appurtenant parking and other related hotel amenities, commonly
known as a "Residence Inn by Marriott."
C. The Developer Property and City Property are located adjacent and to the
west of the "Komar Desert Center," located at 79795 Highway 111, La Quinta, California
92253, which includes 26.53 acres (APNs 649- 030- 086, 649- 030- 087, 649- 030- 007
and 6491- 030-088) of improved real property, and which is subject to and governed by
the Komar Desert Center Specific Plan, SP 2005-075, adopted on January 3, 2006, by
City Council Resolution 2006-003 ("Komar Specific Plan"), The Komar Specific Plan is
a public record and is on file in the office of the City Clerk and is incorporated into this
Notice by reference.
D. Pursuant to Section Part III.C, pages 21 & 24, of the Komar Specific Plan,
the City,, among other terms and conditions, required that "the potential for reciprocal
access be preserved for the future by requiring the developer of the Komar Desert Center
to commit to providing reciprocal access at a reasonably feasible location along the
project's western boundary, to be determined by the City's Public Works Director if and
when he or she determines that such reciprocal access promotes good area traffic
circulation and does not overly burden the Komar Desert Center site." Also, as identified
in Figures 3 & 6, on pages 11 & 33 respectively (among other provisions), in the Komar
6913/015610-0002
16452077.4 a08/11/21 -1-
DOC #2021-0495659 Page 3 of 12
Specific: Plan, a "Reciprocal Access with Possible Future Commercial Development" is
specifically set forth and located for purposes of the potential future development of the
Developer Property.
E. The Developer Property and City Property are subject to and governed by
the Highway 111 & Dune Palms Specific Plan, as amended, by SP Amendment 2018-
0002, adopted on February 12, 2019 by City Council Resolution 2019-002 ("Dune Palms
Specific Plan"). The Dune Palms Specific Plan is a public record and is on file in the
office of the City Clerk and is incorporated into this Notice by reference.
F. In connection with the Dune Palms Specific Plan, the City had a Traffic
Impact Analysis completed by Urban Crossroads and dated November 16, 2018 (the
"TIA"). As directed by the City Public Works Director, the TIA (i) had been prepared in
accordance with the City of La Quinta's Engineering Bulletin #06-13 (dated October 3,
2017), among other governing documents, and (ii) assumed for ingress, egress, and
other traffic circulation purposes that access to the Developer Property included the
"Reciprocal Access with Possible Future Commercial Development" as identified in the
Komar Specific Plan, and, for purposes of the TIA, this access is identified as "Driveway 2
via adjacent shopping center — Costco Drive (full access), as identified on page 1 of the
Executive Summary of the TIA, and more specifically analyzed and depicted on pages
81-86 of the TIA. The TIA is a public record and is on file in the office of the City Clerk
and is incorporated into this Notice by reference.
G. On March 12, 2019, the City adopted Conditions Of Approval for Site
Development Permit 2018-0007 ("SDP"), by Planning Commission Resolution No. 2019-
004, relating to the site development for the Residence Inn by Marriott at the Developer
Property. Additionally on March 12, 2019, the City adopted Conditions Of Approval for
Tentative Parcel Map 2018-0003 ("TPM"), by Planning Commission Resolution No. 2019-
004, relating to the subdivision of the Developer Property pursuant to the Subdivision Map
Act, California Government Code section 66410 et seq. ("Subdivision Map Act").
Pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act and La Quinta Municipal Code, conditions of
approval (each, a "COX and collectively, the "COAs") attached to the approval of the
SDP and TPM, which included the offer for dedication of a reciprocal easement for
access, ingress, egress, and parking across the parcels (SDP COA #13 / TPM COA #14).
H. Based upon the analysis and assumptions from the TIA, as well as the rights
of the City and obligations of the owner of the Komar Desert Center pursuant to the Komar
Specific Plan, and the rights of the City and Developer pursuant to the Dune Palms
Specific Plan, the City Engineer has determined that the development of the Developer
Property and use and occupancy of the Residence Inn by Marriott (or other hotel) thereon
could proceed without obtaining and having a reciprocal access covenant recorded
against the Komar Desert Center as long as the City Property remained raw and
unimproved real property. The City Engineer also determined that the reciprocal access
between the Komar Desert Center, the Developer Property, and the City Property would
need to be implemented if and when the City, or its successor -in -interest, obtains a site
development permit (or other permit as may be issued by the City) for the development,
construction, and/or improvements on the City Property for any development and use

consistent with the Dune Palms Specific Plan (including as may be amended) and/or any
other applicable land use, subdivision, or zoning laws of the City.
I. In accordance with the City Council's action taken at its Regular Meeting for
May 4, 2021 (Consent Calendar Item #7), the City and Developer mutually agree to record
this Notice, for the benefit of both the Developer Property and City Property, for the
purpose; of memorializing actual and constructive notice of the reciprocal access on and
over the Developer Property and, once improved, on and over the City Property, as more

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: ACCEPT OFF-SITE AND ON-SITE IMPROVEMENTS
ASSOCIATED WITH PARCEL MAP NO. 37683, RESIDENCE INN BY MARRIOTT,
LOCATED SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 111 AND NORTH OF VISTA CORALINA LANE
RECOMMENDATION
Accept the off-site and on-site improvements associated with Parcel Map No.
37683, Residence Inn by Marriott; authorize staff to release performance
security upon recordation of an instrument approved by the City Manager to
memorialize the reciprocal access to the Komar Desert Center; and direct
staff, after recordation of the instrument to memorialize reciprocal access to
the Komar Desert Center, to release the labor and materials security 90 days
after City Council acceptance of the improvements.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Residence Inn by Marriott hotel is located south of Highway 111 and
north of Vista Coralina Lane (Attachment 1).
LQ Hospitality Group, LLC (Developer) has requested release of the
performance, labor, and materials securities.
Parcel Map No. 37683 (PM 37683) was subdivided into two parcels. The
Developer has completed the required off-site and on-site
improvements for Parcel 1 of PM 37683. The portion of the reciprocal
access on the Komar Desert Center property will be completed by the
future developer of Parcel 2 of PM 37683. Thus, staff recommends
acceptance, and release of the performance, labor, and materials
securities.
FISCAL IMPACT – None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Developer has completed the off-site and on-site improvements required
by Parcel 1 of PM 37683. The completed improvements include grading,
pavement, curb and gutter, curb ramps, signing and striping, storm drains,
catch basins, water and sewer improvements, landscaping, and survey
monumentation. Staff inspected the completed improvements and verified
they meet City-approved plans and standards.
CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 7
MOTION WAS REVISED BY STAFF
DURING CONFIRMATION OF AGENDA
89
PM 37683 was subdivided into two parcels. One parcel is occupied by the
Residence Inn by Marriott hotel and the other parcel is retained by the City
for future development. The potential future reciprocal access to the adjacent
Komar Desert Center is identified in the Komar Specific Plan and the traffic
impact analysis completed for the Dune Palms Specific Plan. The City Engineer
has determined that the reciprocal access between the hotel and Komar
Desert Center can be postponed as long as the City-owned parcel remains
vacant and unimproved. However, a recorded instrument approved by the City
is needed to memorialize the requirement for the future developer of the City-
owned parcel to obtain approval from Komar Desert Center to complete the
reciprocal access on their side prior to development of the City-owned parcel.
ALTERNATIVES
Accepting improvements is a ministerial action necessary for the release of
the improvement securities. Since the improvements have been inspected
and meet City standards, staff does not recommend an alternative action.
