Subject: Public Records request for Coral Mountain Resort New Will Serve Letter
EXTERNAL: This message originated outside of the City of La Quinta. Please use proper judgement and caution
when opening attachments, clicking links or responding to requests for information.
Good day. In the Planning Commission meeting, John Gamlin said there was a new Will Serve letter from IID
as of October 2021. However, the EIR, dated February 2022 states the following:
In a letter dated May 26, 2020, I/O concluded that electrical facilities can be extended to serve the project,
under the conditions
in the will serve letter.
As we learned, the original Will Serve letter dated May 26, 2020, was cancelled by IID. If there indeed is a
valid Will Serve letter, then the date in the Final EIR dated February 2022, should have reflected the new Will
Serve letter. Perhaps Mr. Gamlin did not understand our point and was referring to the fact that they have
applied for a new Will Serve letter but have not received it.
In either case, we would like a copy of the new Will Serve letter, or the request for a new Will Serve letter, so
that we can make a valid assessment about the electrical requirements, given the fact that Mayor Evans has
said, as part of her work to find an electric company other than IID, that IID is tapped out for providing power
to new developments.
Thank you for your help.
Respectfully,
Alena Calimanis
