Public hearing notices were also mailed to all property owners within 500 feet of the site and emailed or mailed to all interested parties who have requested notification relating to the project; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta, California did, on November 12, 2024, hold a duly noticed Public Hearing to consider this request and did adopt Planning Commission Resolution 2024-017 recommending approval of the Site Development Permit; and WHEREAS, the Design and Development Department determined that the project is consistent with the Mitigated Negative Declaration adopted on August 17, 2004 (Environmental Assessment 2003-495), and no further environmental review is required under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Pub. Res. Code, § 21000 et seq. ) and CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs., Title 14, § 15000 et seq.), specifically: Section 15162 in the CEQA Guidelines provides in pertinent part that, when an environmental impact report (EIR) has been certified or a negative declaration Resolution No. 2025 — 002 Site Development Permit 2024-0001 Project: Bravo Estates Location: Northwest Corner of Avenue 52 and Madison Street Adopted: January 21, 2025 Page 2 of 4 (or mitigated negative declaration (MND)) has been adopted for a project, "no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project" unless there is a determination, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, of one or more of: (1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous MND due to involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous MND due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous MND was adopted; Here, based on the information presented during the public hearing including the Staff Report and all attachments and references therein, incorporated into this Resolution by this reference, none of the listed conditions in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines are met, and therefore no subsequent CEQA document is needed, regardless of the age of the MND. This position is consistent with CEQA case law. (See, Committee for Re -Evaluation of T-Line Loop v. San Francisco Municipal Transp. Agency (2016) 6 Cal.App.5th 1237 [agency's partial reliance on a 1998 EIR for a 2014 project upheld].) Furthermore, no new mitigated negative declaration was prepared because, based on substantial evidence, the existing MND was determined to be sufficient. Thus, the noticing provisions in Section 15072(b) were not triggered. (See, CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15070-15075 [a public agency must prepare a proposed negative declaration or mitigated negative declaration when specified conditions are met, and a NOI is required as part of the process to circulate and receive comment from the public and interested parties on a proposed MND].); and WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said City Council did make the following mandatory findings contained in Section 9.210.010 of the Municipal Code to justify approval of said Site Development Permit: 1.

The proposed development, as conditioned, is consistent with the development standards of the City's Zoning Code in terms of architectural style and Resolution No. 2025 — 002 Site Development Permit 2024-0001 Project: Bravo Estates Location: Northwest Corner of Avenue 52 and Madison Street Adopted: January 21, 2025 Page 3 of 4 landscaping. The project design utilizes varying roof lines and wall depths, along with a complementary color palette. 3. The Design and Development Department has determined that this project has been previously studied under, and is consistent with, Environmental Assessment 2003-495, and no further environmental review is required. 4.

The site design of the project is compatible with surrounding development and with the quality of design prevalent in the city. 6. The proposed project is consistent with the landscaping standards and plant palette and implements the standards for landscaping and aesthetics established in the General Plan and Zoning Code. The landscape palette is consistent with the City's drought -tolerant landscaping requirements.
