1. There have been no substantial changes to the project that would require major
revisions to the previously certified EIR due to the involvement of new significant
environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously
identified effects.
The TTM is consistent with the certified EIR for the project insofar as the EIR
analyzed up to 5,000 residential units (the Specific Plan was amended approved
for up to 3,936 dwelling units), and the additional five lots will result in a total of
3,213 units including existing developed residential units.
2. Substantial changes have not occurred with respect to the circumstances under
which the project is undertaken that require major revisions to the previously
certified EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a
substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects.
The TTM will not change the development pattern analyzed in the EIR, nor have
conditions changed on or around the project site, which could increase the impacts
of the proposed project.
3. There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known or
could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time
the previous EIR was certified, showing that the project will have one or more
significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR, significant effects previously
examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR, or
mitigation measures or alternatives that were previously found not to be feasible
or that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previously certified
EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment,
but the project proponent declines to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
Tentative Tract Map 2024-0005 (TTM 38965)
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony
and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said Planning
Commission did make the following mandatory findings pursuant to Section 13.12.130 of
the Municipal Code to justify approval of said Tentative Tract Map:
1. The proposed map or vesting map is consistent with the city general plan and any
applicable specific plans.
Finding of Fact: The proposed subdivision is located within the Low Density
Residential General Plan Land Use Designation, which allows residential
development at a density up to four units per acre. The subdivision is also located

within the PGA West Specific Plan, which identifies the subject property as Low
Density Residential allowing a density of up to four dwelling units per acre. The
proposed subdivision establishes five lots residential zoning over 2.88 acres which
equates to a density of 1.7 dwelling units per acre. The Tentative Tract Map is
consistent with the La Quinta General Plan and Specific Plan 1983-002 and
implements the residential uses allowed and contemplated by the General Plan
and Specific Plan.
2. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the city general
plan and any applicable specific plans.
Finding of Fact: The design and improvement of the proposed subdivision is
consistent with the La Quinta General Plan, with the implementation of
recommended Conditions of Approval. The proposed subdivision does not require
new road improvements as the lots will be accessed from Hermitage. A Condition of
Approval requires the development of the lots be consistent with the PGA West Specific
Plan, Amendment 4.
3. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage nor substantially injure fish or wildlife or their
habitat.
Finding of Fact: The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are
not likely to cause substantial environmental damage, nor substantially injure fish
or wildlife or their habitat. The mitigation measures included in the PGA West
Environmental Impact Report will reduce impacts to less than significant levels,
and the reduction in residential lots proposed in the Tract Map will further reduce
impacts associated with the project.
4. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements are not likely to cause serious
public health problems.
Finding of Fact: The design of the subdivision or type of improvements are not
likely to cause serious public health problems, insofar as the map will be required
to comply with all laws, standards and requirements associated with sanitary sewer
collection, water quality, and other public health issues both in this Map and in
subsequent site development permits and other approvals necessary for
development of the land.
5. The site of the proposed subdivision is physically suitable for the type of
development and proposed density of development.

applicable provisions of Title 13 of the City's Subdivision Regulations Code,
minimum lot area requirements, and other applicable provisions of Title 9 of the
City's Municipal Code, Subdivision Map Act and Specific Plan 1983-002.
7. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements will not conflict with
easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property
within the proposed subdivision.
Finding of Fact: The design and improvements required for the Tentative Tract
Map will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access
through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. All roadway
improvements, easements, if any, and surrounding improvements will be
completed to City and Specific Plan standards.

RE: Tentative Tract Map No. 38965 (Hermitage) Section 15162 Evaluation
The Design and Development Department of the City of La Quinta has requested a
Conformance Memorandum for the Tentative Tract No. 38965. The Altum Group has
completed this analysis for its client HJ/CG Partners and MDS Engineering
This evaluation was performed to determine if conditions specified in California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15162 would require preparation
of additional CEQA review for the proposed project to carve out five Residential Lots on
2.88 acres within the existing Specific Plan Amendment No. 4 to PGA West (SP 83-002)
which is 1687 acres and allows 3,936 dwelling units and 1000 resort units. the total
current number of units is 3,208. It has been determined that the proposed project
would not result in significant new impacts per Section 15162 of CEQA.
-7_[I]:(r1:Z91111P►1 11
The PGA West Specific Plan was adopted by the La Quinta City Council on May 15, 1984
with an Environmental Impact Report. It was amended in September of 1988, June of
1989, and August of 1997. Supplemental Studies were completed for Amendment No.
III which was adopted in August of 1997. Specific Plan Amendment IV to the PGA West
Specific Plan was approved by the La Quinta City Council on October 3, 2000 with 3,936
residential dwelling units and 1000 resort units on 1,687 acres. As part of that approval
of Amendment IV the City Council made Findings from then Section 65457 (a) that no
additional environmental review was necessary based on the fact that there was no
substantive alteration in the original plan. Currently the applicant is proposing a minor
change to the project which includes 5 residential lots on 2.88 acres. The maximum
number of units would remain at 3,936, with the total number of units increasing to
3,213. The increase in total units is less than 1 %. These new lots are in the middle of
the Specific Plan Area and the larger PGA West Area which consists of many Specific
Plans.
The City Council determined that the Environmental Impact Report was prepared and
certified for the PGA West Specific Plan in compliance with CEQA. The City Council
determined that the EIR adequately evaluated the environmental impacts associated with
buildout of the Specific Plan and adopted all feasible mitigation measures.

The proposed project consists of a minor subdivision within the boundaries of the
approved Specific Plan. Specifically, the applicant proposes to subdivide approximately
2.88 acres to create five Residential Lots. This is an increase of less than one percent.
The project site is located within Amendment IV to the PGA Specific Plan (Specific Plan
83-002) and within the broader PGA West development area, which consists of multiple
approved Specific Plans. The subject property is currently developed as part of a golf
course and has been previously disturbed.
SECTION 15162 OF CEQA
CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 provides that when an EIR has been certified for a
project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared unless the lead agency determines, based
on substantial evidence in light of the whole record, that one or more of the following
conditions exist:
A. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions
of the previous EIR due to new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
B. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the
project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to
new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified significant effects; or
C. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not
have been known at the time the previous EIR was certified, shows that:
o The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the
previous EIR;
o Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe;
o Previously infeasible mitigation measures are now feasible and not
adopted; or
o Different mitigation measures would substantially reduce significant effects
and are not adopted.
If none of these conditions are met, the previously certified EIR remains adequate, and
no subsequent environmental document is required.
EVALUATION OF SECTION 15162 CRITERIA
A. Substantial Changes to the Project
The proposed subdivision does not modify the fundamental land use assumptions
evaluated in the EIR for Specific Plan 83-002 and its various amendments. The approved
Specific Plan authorized up to 3,936 dwelling units across 1,687 acres. The proposed five
February 19, 2026
Compliance Memorandum for TTM No. 38965 (Hermitage)

The

Group
residential lots would increase the total residential units from 3,208 to 3,213, which is
less than a 1 % increase in the maximum number of units.
This represents less than a 1 % percent increase over the originally analyzed buildout.
The EIR evaluated development at the scale of a large master -planned community,
including associated traffic generation, infrastructure demand, utilities, public services,
and environmental impacts.
The addition of five residential units within a development of this scale would not alter
land use patterns, infrastructure capacity assumptions, or environmental impact
conclusions to a degree that would require major revisions to the certified EIR. The
subdivision does not introduce new land uses, expand the Specific Plan boundaries, or
substantially modify the approved development framework.
Accordingly, the condition described in Section 15162(a)(1) does not apply.
B. Substantial Changes in Circumstances
The project site is located within an established and largely built -out master -planned
community of PGA West. The property is currently developed as a golf course and has
been previously disturbed. The surrounding area consists of residential and recreational
uses consistent with the Specific Plan.
There have been no substantial changes in physical site conditions or surrounding land
uses that would cause previously analyzed impacts to become substantially more severe.
The proposed subdivision of 2.88 acres into five residential lots will not alter the
environmental baseline conditions in a manner that would trigger new significant effects.
Therefore, Section 15162(a)(2) does not apply.
C. New Information of Substantial Importance
Since certification of the EIR, environmental regulations and analytical methodologies
have evolved, including updated standards related to greenhouse gas emissions, vehicle
miles traveled (VMT), biological resource protections, stormwater management, and tribal
cultural resource consultation.
However, the proposed subdivision does not introduce new land uses, increase
development intensity at a scale that would generate new impact categories, or expand
the geographic footprint of development beyond the Specific Plan area.
The incremental addition of five residential units would not result in new significant
environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified
impacts under current regulatory standards. Any future residential development would
remain subject to applicable contemporary building codes, energy efficiency standards,
stormwater regulations, and other regulatory requirements in effect at the time of
construction.
No new information of substantial importance has been identified that would require major
revisions to the certified EIR pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3).

Cumulative Impacts/Piecemealing
The definition of "piecemeal ing" with regard to CEQA is an agency cannot treat separate
permits or phases as independent projects to minimize environmental review. Typically
this occurs when the severed components are not independent, meaning the overall
project would not proceed without them, or if they are simply parts of a larger plan. A
segment is not improperly piecemealed if it has "independent utility" —meaning it can
function alone without other components. The Hermitage Tract (TTM No. 38965) passes
this criteria because PGA West is not dependent on the Hermitage Tract.
Cumulative Impacts become significant to changes in the environment from subsequent
projects. As stated earlier, the five lot subdivision is not large enough to create any
significant impact in any of the mandated areas of CEQA such as Air Quality, Traffic, and
Noise. Therefore, there is no further analysis needed for Cumulative Impacts.
Conclusion
Based on substantial evidence in light of the whole record, none of the conditions
described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 requiring preparation of a subsequent or
supplemental EIR have occurred.
The proposed Tentative Tract Map No. 38965 represents a minor modification within the
approved Specific Plan area. The addition of five residential units which is less than one
percent increase over the previously analyzed buildout, does not result in new significant
environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified
impacts.
Accordingly, this Addendum has been prepared pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section
15164, and no subsequent or supplemental EIR is required. The City may rely on the
previously certified EIR for Specific Plan No. 83-002 and its various amendments in
approving the proposed subdivision.
