The City of La Quinta, acting as the Lead Agency, has determined that an Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) should be prepared for the proposed amendment to the Travertine
Specific Plan. 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 Travertine Specific Plan Land Use Plan, anticipated to be
developed over a 10-year period beginning in 2026. There is no actual timetable for

development period.
