Good afternoon,
The City received your request for public records on February 4, 2022, requesting a
fiscal impact analysis report prepared for the annexation of the Coral Mountain Specific

This e-mail serves as written notice that the 10-day time limit to satisfy the request is
being extended by an additional 14 days in accordance with the California Public
Records Act [Government Code Section 6253(c)], due to the need to search for, collect,

Hello Ms. MarInez,
I am the President of the Coral Mountain Wave Development project currently working with the City on
Page 3 of 3
enItlement approvals.
Many years ago, I was VP of Development for the original Coral Mountain partners (1995-2002) before
moving on to develop Hideaway and Madison Clubs with Discovery Land. At the original CM, we sold our
land to Shea to build Trilogy and to the Drummond Co to build Andalusia. I assisted TD Desert Development
(Drummond) with pre-development, including annexaIon of their acquisiIon lands to the City. This was
followed later by Shea as the City’s boundary was extended.
Around the Ime I departed and Shea was working on annexaIon, I recall the City performed at least one, if
not more, studies that analyzed the economic impact of bringing the projects in, given that the property taxes
would conInue to be collected by the County due to being inside the (now former) Thermal Airport
Redevelopment Area boundary. This is the current situaIon, and I understand for the foreseeable future, at
least for the next 13 or so years, as bonds are paid off.
I would like to request copies of any studies in the City’s files that were prepared and made publicly available
at the Ime.
Can your department assist me with this?
Kind regards,
John Gamlin
