Project Location: Within the City of La
Quinta, the project encompasses an area of
approximately 929 acres south of Avenue
58, north of Avenue 60, and east and west
of Madison Street. As a part of the proposed
project, the 386-acre portion of the site
west of Madison Street is proposed to be
removed from the existing Andalusia
Specific Plan (SP 03-067) and developed
under Specific Plan 2019-0003. This area is
generally bounded by the Avenue 58 to the
north; Madison Street to the east; the
extension of Avenue 60 to the south; and
Coral Mountain to the west. Located in
portions of Section 27 and 28, Township 6
South, Range 7 East, San Bernardino Base
Line and Meridian; Latitude 33° 37’ 15” N
Longitude 116° 15’ 21” W (approximate
geographic center of the site).
Project Description: The proposed project
would result in the development of a master
planned resort community, and the removal of the 386-acre development site from the
existing 929-acre Andalusia at Coral Mountain Specific Plan. The project proposes to
develop the 386-acre site with a mix of uses including up to 600 dwelling units of varying
product types, a resort facility with up to 150 rooms, 57,000 square feet of tourist
commercial uses, 60,000 square feet of neighborhood commercial uses, and open space
recreational uses on approximately 23.6 acres. In addition, the project proposes a 16.62-
acre artificial wave basin for recreational purposes. The project consists of the following
entitlement applications: a General Plan Amendment (GPA 2019-0002), a Zone Change
ZC 2019-0004), a Specific Plan Amendment to SP 03-067, a Specific Plan (SP 2019-
0003), a Tentative Tract Map (TTM 2019-0005), and a Site Development Permit (SDP)
for a portion of the project consisting of an artificial wave basin.
The City of La Quinta, acting as the Lead Agency, has determined that an Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) should be prepared for the proposed project. The EIR will be
prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to evaluate
the potential environmental impacts associated with the implementation of the project.
This Notice of Preparation also solicits comments and questions from responsible
agencies, trustee agencies, federal, State and local agencies and the general public, on
the scope and content of the environmental document to be prepared to analyze the
potential environmental impacts of the proposed project. Comments received in
response to this Notice of Preparation will be reviewed and considered in determining
the scope of the EIR. The time period to submit comments will begin February 17, 2021
and will end March 19, 2021.
