Current Zoning
The Property is subject to a Specific Plan, SP 2006-080 SilverRock Resort (the "SilverRock
Specific Plan" or "SSP")), which is the effective zoning of the Property. The SilverRock Specific
Debtors are SilverRock Development Company, LLC and affiliated entities that, on August 5, 2024, filed for
voluntary bankruptcy protection under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, with case number(s) identified in
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, with the last four digits of each Debtor's federal tax identification
number, as applicable: SilverRock Development Company, LLC (5730), RGC PA 789, LLC (5996), SilverRock
Lifestyle Residences, LLC (0721), SilverRock Lodging, LLC (4493), SilverRock Luxury Residences, LLC (6598) and
SilverRock Phase I, LLC (2247) (collectively, the "Bankruptcy Lawsuit" in the "Bankruptcy Court").

Plan includes Tourist Commercial and Golf Course zones, which generally allow for the
development and use of the Property as a "resort environment." The Tourist Commercial zoning
allows for "a four star" hotel, boutique hotels, spas, and other resort -rental and resort -oriented
uses, including residential units that may be investor- or individually -owned and rented as part
of a hotel and its resort amenities, and including mixed -use resort retail areas with retail,
restaurant, and entertainment options as allowable uses (SSP §§ 2.4, 2.4.1). The Golf Course
zone allows for golf, open space, and public park uses, which are intended to be integrated
throughout the SilverRock Resort Area and with the Tourist Commercial uses (SSP §§ 2.4,
2.4.1). The Specific Plan identifies eight (8) "planning areas," and the actual location and
alignment of the land uses and zones in the Specific Plan are diagrammatic, such that the
precise layout of the various land uses are ultimately to be determined by the actual alignment
and adjacency of each land use category (SSP § 2.2.1). The Specific Plan, therefore, grants
flexibility with the ultimate location of development and uses that are permitted within the Tourist
Commercial and Golf Course zones.
The Specific Plan area is shown on the City's Specific Plan Map at the following weblink-

Other Approvals
The Property is subject to the La Quinta City Council approvals, referenced above. Included
among those, the SilverRock Resort (2025 SilverRock Master Plan) is subject to Development
Agreement (DA) 2025-0001 (Reinstated and Amended Development Agreement 2014-1001)
(the "Development Agreement"). Pursuant to California law (Cal. Gov. Code, § 65864 et seq.),
the City and TBE may prescribe vis-a-vis said Development Agreement the permitted uses of
the property, the density or intensity of use, and, among other provisions, any other differences
between the rules, regulations, and official policies governing permitted uses of the Property that
would otherwise be applicable to development of the Property (See, Cal. Gov. Code,
§§ 65865.2, 65866). Pursuant to California law, said Development Agreement must be
approved, and was approved, by noticing and holding a public hearing and by adopting the
Development Agreement by ordinance.
