BACKGROUND
Tentative Parcel Map 36241 is proposed as a post -development subdivision of the
existing Jefferson Square shopping center. The first phase of the center was
completed last year and includes a CVS drug store, retail shop areas, and yet to
open Fresh & Easy market. Three building pads exist for future building
construction.
PROJECT REQUEST
The applicant proposes to subdivide the approximately 10.78 acre site into seven
parcels for sale, leasing or financing purposes (Attachment 2). Each parcel will
contain one building or building pad and a portion of the common area
improvements, such as the parking lot, retention basin and/or landscaping areas.
Parcel sizes vary from .45 acres to 4.08 acres.
The project design was approved in 2008 under SP 2002-062, Amendment #2, and
SDP 2007-898. The ultimate project, as approved in the Specific Plan will consist
of approximately 91,000 square feet of floor space. As noted, the first phase of
construction has been completed. This includes all parking lot, common area and
off-site improvements, and buildings totaling 38,440 square foot on proposed
parcels 1 through 3 and parcel 5. The remaining three buildings are to be on the
other proposed parcels. All required public off-site and private on-site
improvements have been constructed.
ANALYSIS
The design of proposed Tentative Parcel Map 36241, as conditioned, conforms to
the design guidelines and standards of the City of La Quinta General Plan for the
Neighborhood Commercial (NC) designation of the Land Use Element. The
proposed site design incorporates street and parcel designs consistent with the
intent of applicable General Plan goals, policies, and development standards, and
will provide adequate circulation, infrastructure, and utilities, which are already in
place and have been previously found in conformance through the review of the
SDP 2007-898.
The primary purpose and design of the map is to facilitate sale, leasing or
financing of the individual parcels.
Per La Quinta Municipal Code Section 13.12.130, specific findings need to be
made for approval of a Tentative Parcel Map. The Findings to approve Tentative
Parcel Map 36241 can be made, and are included in the recommended Findings
C:\Users\mradeva\Desktop\Working Docs\Directors Staff Report.doc
and Conditions of Approval.
PUBLIC NOTICE
This project was advertised in the Desert Sun newspaper and posted on April 10,
2010. All property owners within 500 feet of the site were mailed a copy of the
public hearing notice. At the time of the filing of this report, staff had not received
any correspondence or comments regarding this proposal.
PUBLIC AGENCY REVIEW
All written comments received are on file with the Planning Department. All
applicable agency comments received have been incorporated into the conditions
of approval.
RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Director approve Tentative Parcel Map 36241, pursuant to the
attached Findings and subject to the attached Conditions of Approval.

Findings and Conditions of Approval — Final
Tentative Parcel Map No. 36241
Regency Marinita La Quinta, LLC
Adopted: April 21, 2010
FINDINGS
1. California Environmental Quality Act - The La Quinta Planning Director has
determined that the request has been previously assessed in conjunction with
Environmental Assessment 2002-462 prepared for Specific Plan 2002-062 and Site
Development Permit 2002-754 which were certified by the City Council on June 20,
2004. No changed circumstances or conditions are proposed, or new information
has been submitted which would trigger the preparation of a subsequent
Environmental Review Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21166.
2. General Plan Consistency - The proposed Tentative Parcel Map conforms to the
design guidelines and standards of the General Plan for Neighborhood Commercial
(NC) designated properties, as set forth in the Land Use Element, as it subdivides
existing approved NC land uses.
3. Public Easements - The design of the proposed Tentative Parcel Map will not
conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of
property within the proposed subdivision, in that reciprocal access and
maintenance needs will be provided for within the project via Conditions of
Approval.
4. Design of the Subdivision - The design of the proposed Tentative Parcel Map
complies with the La Quinta General Plan and Specific Plan 2002-062 Amendment
#2, in that the proposed parcels are in conformance with applicable goals, policies,
and development standards, as governed by the Specific Plan for the overall
project.
5. Suitability of the Site - The proposed design of the Tentative Parcel Map is
physically compatible with the site with regards to level topography for the subject
property, as the site design is approved and no different development is proposed.
6. Public Health - The proposed Tentative Parcel Map will not result in any increased
hazard to public health or welfare, as the design has been reviewed by the
appropriate responsible agencies for health and safety issues, with none identified,
and the subdivision will not result in any further development within its boundary.
7. Parcel Map Required — A Parcel Map and Final Map are required based on the
Subdivision Map Act, Section 66426(f), and under authority of the City of La Quinta
Subdivision Ordinance (Title 13, Section 13.20.020.A; La Quinta Municipal Code).
