Esteemed Council Members and Honorable Mayor:
This year marks the 20th anniversary of my family’s move to La Quinta. Un;l recent months, this family has
found that there was a constant improvement in the quality of life, city services and the general a=rac;veness
of our community. But the mere fact that the project to build a wave park is being considered for changes in
the Master Plan has us frightened, concerned and, most important, ac;vely considering other communi;es
such as the Tucson, AZ, area for a total move.
The city has already received ample and well-reasoned objec;ons to project. I support the groups that have
organized to oppose this dreadful project. Our concerns are centered on increased traffic on Madison, the
destruc;on of the night sky with the full complement of high ligh;ng, increased demands on services such as
fire and police, introduc;on of a “different” class of visitors to our residen;al area who are poten;ally
disrup;ve and the totally obscene use of electrical power and water in a ;me when we need to conserve both.
On the other hand, there is nothing posi;ve that can be said about this except its poten;al for increased tax
revenue; that comes at a dreadful cost to the quality of life and the conserva;on of resources in La Quinta.
Please do not allow this disrup;ve intrusion to be approved in our residen;al neighborhood.
David Gleason
