Dear Nicole Sauviat Criste,
I recently was made aware of the full scope and impact of the Wave
park/hotel/homes/stores/restaurants/rentals in the eastern portion of La Quinta bordering
Trilogy and Andalusia and am profoundly troubled on its decades long magnitude of
disruption to our low-key communities. As a planner, I'm sure you're aware of the laundry list
of issues so I won't rehash them here but the list is long, verifiable and formidable.
I and presumably many others have no opposition to new developments as thats the natural
course of things but they should be a continuation of what's here: upscale single family
residences and not enormous projects that will overtax our streets, intersections, water
consumption, endanger the local ecology and above all, disrupt our peaceful way of life.
In reviewing the projects listed on the City of LQ website, I found no mention of the Wave
park nor of the rental development between Ave. 60 and Ave. 62 off Monroe and find this
quite odd. My understanding was that the project off Monroe had been approved for ~90
residential family homes but new information says the plan is now to build 200+ STVR's. I do
not see how this can be acceptable on any level: this would devalue our homes in Trilogy as
there are dozens of homes backing up to this property. If my home was located here, I would
sell and move without haste.
We already have issues here; racing on 60th, Monroe and 62nd streets: daily donut practice
on Madison and 60th and the dumping ground on Monroe and 60th. I really hope that other
departments within the city are taking a hard look at these concerns but I have my doubts as
these are years old already and the problems persist to this day.
I'm not sure what impact this letter might have but I sincerely hope that you apply due
consideration.
Thank you,
Derek Wong
