I would first like to wish everyone a happy and healthy New Year.
I wanted to let you know that it was with great dismay that I read the following:
“Jason Weiss has been named the Broker of Record and head of sales for the first of its kind new development project, Coral
Mountain Resort La Quinta. Coral Mountain is expecting to break ground in 2022 and will be a Private Next Generation Luxury
Wellness Community at the base of Coral Mountain…”
https://theluxurydesert.com/jason-weiss/
To my knowledge, The Coral Mountain EIR has not been released or approved. Is there something I missed?
I think it is totally unethical for the developer to publish this. It makes it appear that the Developer has received all
approvals from the City. This type of post is purposely misleading and sends the wrong information out to the people of La
Quinta and elsewhere.
Would you please ask the developer to cease and desist from this type of underhanded & devious marketing tactic?
As I await your response, I am thanking you in advance.
Respectfully,
Alena Callimanis
