Dear Ms Criste,
I would like to add my voice to the opposiJon of the proposed wave park. I have been following the discussion for a
while now and feel that this project is something that will destroy the quiet privacy of the surrounding neighborhood
which is what drew me to choose this part of La Quinta to invest in a permanent home. While I understand that the
city of La Quinta is moJvated to allow this project to proceed based on projected revenue in the future, I worry that
we will have the same unfinished mess that I have been driving past daily at SilverRock. My neighborhood in
Andalusia has seen an exponenJal increase in construcJon (as have most neighborhoods) and I for one would like
the area to revert to the quiet and lack of construcJon traffic that we once enjoyed. Maybe not great for increasing
city revenue but, seriously, how long will this construcJon boom be sustainable? And building a massive wave park
that will consume our precious water resources is not just a horrible idea during a drought but also locaJng the
complex in the desert in general is a terrible idea.
The developers can assure us all day long that there will be no impacts to the community but that destroys their
credibility to me because there’s no way we won’t be impacted by the park with its daily operaJons and special
events. The desert acts like a whisper bowl and transmits sound a great distance. I’ve noJced that I can hear the
music from Coachella and the cars zooming around the BMW track in Thermal. We are already inconvenienced with
the numerous marathons, golf tournaments and music fesJvals. Enough is enough. I don’t want this area to become
a commercial epicenter. Leave that to communiJes who have access to the freeway.
Respec_ully,
