southern La Quinta border provides. We are proponents of property rights but wonder if the wave park
is consistent with development of this area of La Quinta.
Alternative uses for the property are well defined in the EIR. We support alternatives (in descending
order of preference):
• Alternative #4 Golf/Resort Hotel
• Alternative #2 No project / Existing Entitlements
• Alternative #3 Reduced density
Additional areas of concern are:
• Traffic – We are concerned event related traffic will overload the corridor resulting in gridlock.
The 4 way stop at Madison and 58th will be overwhelmed during events. The memory of
Ironman I’s paralyzing of La Quinta streets is still fresh. Additional access to the property would
provide additional ingress/egress on alternatives to Madison alone.
• Noise – The area is a quiet, serene neighborhood. We are concerned about noise from
equipment required to heat, treat the pool in addition to the wave making machinery.
• Lighting – 17 80’ towers will create a “ball park” type of illumination immediately adjacent to
the beautiful mountains. We understand the desire for specific light angles but ask
consideration be given to lighting standards of 30’ or less to reduce the lighting glare.
• Hours of operation – reduce end time to 8 pm.
• Special events – 4 special events drawing attendees and traffic to La Quinta’s southern edge has
the potential to create traffic gridlock.
