STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE- ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 534 ADDING CHAPTER 5.82 TO THE LA QUINTA
MUNICIPAL CODE TO PROHIBIT CERTAIN RETAIL SALES OF DOGS AND CATS IN THE CITY OF
LA QUINTA
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No. 534 on second reading.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• On March 15, 2016, the Council introduced Ordinance No. 534, which adds Chapter
5.82 to the Municipal Code and prohibits certain dog and cat retail sales in the City.
Pet stores would not be allowed to sell dogs and cats, but could offer adoptions of
shelter, humane society, or non-profit rescue organizations' animals.
• Bylaw, a second reading of an ordinance must occur, followed by a vote to adopt
and a 30-day posting period before an ordinance may take effect. If adopted on
April 5, 2016, this ordinance will take effect on May 5, 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT - None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
In an effort to decrease the number of unwanted dogs and cats and increase the
adoption rates, residents have requested that all Coachella Valley Cities adopt ordinances
prohibiting the retail sale of dogs and cats. Ordinance No. 534 will:
• Ban retail sales of dogs or cats in pet stores,
• Allow stores to offer dogs and cats for adoption,
• Ensure animals are obtained from city or county shelters, the humane society, or a
non-profit rescue organization, and
• Require source certificates that identify the adopted animal's origin.
The intent is to discourage substandard breeding practices and promote animal welfare.
ALTERNATIVES:
As Council approved this ordinance at first reading, an alternative is not recommended.

ORDINANCE NO.534
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA
QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER 5.82 TO THE LA
QUINTA MUNICIPAL CODE TO PROHIBIT CERTAIN RETAIL
SALES OF DOGS AND CATS IN THE CITY OF LA QUINTA
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of La Quinta recently adopted
amendments to the animal code provisions of the City's municipal code to provide a
greater level of safety to the community after receiving feedback from residents at
community outreach meetings;
WHEREAS, the amended animal code currently bans the backyard breeding (as
defined) of dogs;
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the backyard breeding and subsequent
sales of dogs and cats from such breeders contributes to the proliferation of homeless
or unwanted animals that end up in public animal shelters and humane societies;
WHEREAS, existing state and federal laws, including the Lockyer-Polanco-Farr
Pet Protection Act (California Health and Safety Code section 122125, et seq.), the
Polanco-Lockyer Pet Breeder Warranty Act (California Health and Safety Code section
122045, et seq.), the Pet Store Animal Care Act (California Health and Safety Code
section 122350, et seq.), and the Animal Welfare Act (7 U.S.C. § 2131, et seq.),
illustrate society's trend towards promoting the humane treatment of animals by
regulating dog and cat breeders, as well as pet shops and stores;
WHEREAS, the need exists to regulate pet shops, retail businesses, and other
commercial establishments that sell dogs and cats from backyard breeding practices
or from other substandard breeding practices, such as inhumane, commercial
breeding facilities where the health of dogs or cats is disregarded in order to maintain
a low overhead and maximize profits;
WHEREAS, according to the Humane Society of the United States, hundreds of
thousands of dogs and cats in the United States have been housed and bred at these
substandard breeding facilities, known as "puppy mills" or "kitten factories," which
mass-produce animals for sale to the public, and many of these animals are sold at
retail pet stores;
WHEREAS, due to the lack of proper animal husbandry practices at these
facilities, animals born and raised at these "puppy mills" or "kitten factories" are more
likely to have genetic disorders and lack adequate socialization, and animals bred at
such facilities are often subject to inhumane housing conditions and indiscriminately
disposed of when they reach the end of their profitable breeding cycle;
15
Ordinance No. 534
Add Chapter 5.82 to Prohibit Certain Retail Sales of Dogs and Cats
Adopted:
Page 2 of 8
WHEREAS, according to the Humane Society of the United States, American
consumers purchase dogs and cats from pet stores that the consumers believe to be
healthy and genetically sound, but in reality the animals often face an array of health
problems, including communicable diseases or genetic disorders that become
apparent immediately after sale or may not become apparent until several years later,
which may lead to costly veterinary bills and distress to consumers;
WHEREAS, prohibiting the unregulated sale of dogs and cats in pet shops, retail
businesses, or other commercial establishments may lower the sale of dogs and cats
from inhumane backyard breeding practices or substandard breeding facilities like
"puppy mills" or "kitten factories," may lower the shelter animal euthanasia rate, and
may lead to a greater adoption rate of shelter animals;
WHEREAS, the homeless pet problem notwithstanding, the City Council
recognizes there are many reputable dog and cat breeders who refuse to sell through
pet stores, who refuse to engage in backyard breeding, and who work carefully to
screen families and ensure good, lifelong homes for dogs and cats;
WHEREAS, there has been significant community activity within the City of La
Quinta and across the Coachella Valley to convince local pet store operators to
convert from unregulated puppy sales to humane business models for offering
adoptable homeless dogs and cats to their customers;
WHEREAS, across the country, thousands of independent pet stores as well as
large chains operate profitably with a business model focused on the sale of pet
services and supplies and not on the sale of dogs and cats, and many of these stores
collaborate with local animal shelters and rescue organizations to offer space and
support for showcasing adoptable homeless pets on their premises;
WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that not all dogs and cats retailed in pet
stores are products of inhumane breeding conditions and would not classify every
commercial breeder selling dogs or cats to pet stores as a "puppy mill" or "kitten
factory," but the City Council also recognizes that puppy mills and kitten factories
continue to exist in part because of public demand and the sale of dogs and cats in
pet stores;
WHEREAS, the City Council seeks to prohibit the retail sale of dogs and cats in
pet stores, retail businesses, and commercial establishments unless the animals are
obtained from a reputable breeder who has not engaged in backyard breeding or from
a city or county animal shelter or animal control agency, humane society, or non-
profit rescue organization so as to prevent to the maximum extent possible any
incentive for backyard breeding, puppy mills, and kitten factories;
WHEREAS, the City Council believes that eliminating the retail sale of dogs and
cats in pet stores in the City will promote community awareness of animal welfare
and, in turn, will foster a more humane environment in the City;
i[
Ordinance No. 534
Add Chapter 5.82 to Prohibit Certain Retail Sales of Dogs and Cats
Adopted:
Page 3 of 8
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of La Quinta believes that elimination of
the retail sale of dogs and cats in pet stores in the City will also encourage pet
consumers to adopt dogs and cats from shelters, thereby saving animals' lives and
reducing the cost to the public of sheltering animals; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of La Quinta finds that, in addition to
state and federal laws, the City of La Quinta has a local responsibility to promote
animal welfare. The City Council believes that a community that promotes animal
welfare will be a healthier community.
NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of La Quinta does hereby ordain
as follows:
The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein.
This Ordinance shall be known and may be cited as the "La Quinta Prohibition of the
Retail Sale of Dogs and Cats Ordinance."
Chapter 5.82 shall be added to the La Quinta Municipal Code as written in Exhibit A
attached hereto.
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is, for
any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of
competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining
portions of this Ordinance, and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause,
phrase or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections,
subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases or portions might subsequently be declared
invalid or unconstitutional.
This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect thirty (30) days after its adoption.
The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, and shall
cause the same to be published within fifteen (15) days after passage in accordance
with law, and shall cause this Ordinance and its certification, together with proof of

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO CONTRACT SERVICES AND REVOCABLE
LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH LA QUINTA FARMS, LLC. FOR PM10 STABILIZATION AT
SILVERROCK RESORT
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Amendment No. 2 to the Contract Services and Revocable License Agreement
with La Quinta Farms, LLC. to extend the term for one year.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City and La Quinta Farms, LLC. (Contractor) entered into a three year Contract
Services and Revocable License Agreement (Agreement) in 2012 for PM10 services
at SilverRock Resort (SRR).
The Agreement allows the City and Contractor to extend the term for two
additional one-year terms upon mutual agreement. The first additional one-year
term extended the agreement through June 30, 2016.
A second and final additional term (Attachment 2) will extend the Agreement
through June 30, 2017.
FISCAL IMPACT
The annual cost is $285,000 and is included in the Public Works operating budget for
PM10 services at SRR.
BACKUKUUND/ANALYSIS
Approximately 290 acres of the SRR property remain undeveloped. Since 2004, PM10
measures have been in place for dust control and Air Quality Management District
(AQMD) compliance.
In 2005 staff consulted AQMD to determine the best options to stabilize the undeveloped
property, which included water truck service, chemical stabilization, vegetative
stabilization (at AQMD's suggestion), and contracting the property for agricultural use.
The City entered into an Agreement with the Contractor, which included farming, on July
1, 2012. The Contractor intended to grow and sell fruits and vegetables on the corner of
Jefferson Street and Avenue 52. However, this section of the Agreement was
discontinued after the first year due to residents' complaints about dust at the
neighboring Codorniz development, at which time the area was treated for long term
PM10 stabilization.
27
The current Agreement includes:
Plant and grow 45 acres of rye grass for tournament parking each year.
Install above -ground irrigation as needed throughout the property.
Plant 80 acre sections of Sudan grass each year.
Remove tumble weeds and debris.
Daily water truck operation.
Remove aquatic and riparian weeds from the storm channel retention area.
AL1 LKNA f YVE
Another farmer has expressed interest in a multi -year agreement to utilize the
undeveloped property for a hay farm operation. City Council may direct staff to develop
new specifications and solicit bids. Staff is not recommending this option at this time due
to the pending development at SRR. Once the development schedule is set, staff will
recommend PM 10 options for Council consideration; these may include soliciting bids for
PM 10 soil stabilization services or assigning this responsibility to the SRR developer.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: RECEIVE AND FILE REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE REPORT DATED
FEBRUARY 29, 2016
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file revenue and expenditure report dated February 29, 2016.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Revenue and expenditure reports are submitted monthly for City Council review.
The reports summarize the City's year-to-date (YTD) revenues and expenditures for
February 29, 2016 (Attachment 1).
FISCAL IMPACT - None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
REVENUES:
Below is a summary of the column headers used on the Revenue Summary Report All
Funds:
Original Total Budget- represents the revenue budget the Council adopted in June
2015 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2015/16.
Current Total Budget - includes original adopted revenue budget, plus carryovers,
from the prior FY and Council -approved budget amendments. The bulk of the
carryovers are related to Capital Improvement Project (CIP) matters. Each year
total CIP projects are budgeted; however, project length may span over multiple
years. Therefore, unfinished projects from the prior year are carried over (along
with associated revenue reimbursements).
Period Activity - represents actual revenues received in the reporting month.
FiscalActivity- presents actual revenues collected YTD. For example, the February
report shows revenues collected in February in the Period Activity column, but
revenues collected from the beginning of the FY through the end of the reporting
month for 2015/16 are presented in the Fiscal Activity column.
Variance Favorable/ (Unfavorable) - represents the difference between YTD
collections and the budgeted amount.
Percent Used - represents the percentage of budgeted revenues collected YTD.
31
The revenue report includes revenues and transfers into funds from other funds (income
items). Unlike expenditures, revenues are not received uniformly throughout the year,
which results in peaks and valleys depending upon large payments that are received
throughout the year. For example, large property tax payments are usually received in
December and May. Similarly, Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund payments are
typically received in January and June.
February Revenues
Just over $4.1 million in General Fund revenue was collected in February bringing the
total YTD collections to 47.16 percent ($18 million). Total collections for all funds were
$5.3 million, bringing total collections to 41.11 percent ($38.3 million).
The bulk of General Fund payments consisted of:
$1.8 million in Motor Vehicle in Lieu
$604,100 in sales tax
$702,910 in Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT)
The larger non -General Fund payment received in February consisted of:
$642,171 in SilverRock revenues
$63,232 in Gas Tax
$69,160 in Measure A funds
EXPENDITURES:
Below is a summary of the column headers used on the Expenditure Summary Report All
Funds:
Original Total Budget - represents the expenditure budget adopted by Council in
June 2015 for FY 2015/16.
Current Total Budget - includes the original adopted expenditure budget plus any
carryovers from the prior FY, and any Council approved budget amendments. The
bulk of the carryovers are related to CIP matters. Each year total CIP projects are
budgeted; however, project length can span over multiple years. Therefore,
unfinished projects from the prior year are carried over (along with associated
revenue reimbursements).
Period Activity- represents actual expenditures made in the reporting month.
FiscalActivity-presents actual expenditures made YTD. For example, the February
report shows expenditures made in the Period Activity column (February), but
expenditures made during the fiscal year from July through the end of the
reporting period are presented in the Fiscal Activity column.
Variance Favorable/ (Unfavorable) - represents the difference between YTD
expenditures and the budgeted amount (the amount yet to be expended).
Percent Used - represents the percentage of budget spent to date.
The expenditure report includes expenditures and transfers out to other funds. Unlike
32
revenues, expenditures are fairly consistent month to month. However, large debt service
payments or CIP expenditures can cause swings.
February Expenditures
General Fund expenditures in February total $1.2 million bringing the total YTD
expenditures to 37.68 percent. Of the $1.2 million, $620,177 is related to monthly
personnel costs (salaries, benefits, etc.). In addition to personnel costs, the other larger
General Fund expenditures in February were:
$57,150 for landscape maintenance services
$52,342 for earthquake/flood insurance premiums
$23,669 related to dust control at SilverRock
Total expenditures for all funds in December were $2.2 million. The larger non -General
Fund expenditures were:
$321,531 for SilverRock contract golf management costs
$44,769 for contract project management -various CIP projects
$76,532 for Park ADA improvements
Summary
All funds are generally on target or under budget with regard to expenditures. Revenue
collections appear low due to timing issues discussed in the revenue section above. The
timing imbalance of revenues receipts versus expenditures is funded from the City's cash
flow reserve.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING; April 5, 2016
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: AMEND THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S REGULAR MEETINGS START TIME
TO 6:00 P.M.
RECOMMENDATION
Set 6:00 p.m. as the new start time for the Planning Commission's regularly scheduled
meetings.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• The regularly scheduled Planning Commission (Commission) meetings start at
7:00 p.m.
• The Commission unanimously supports changing the start time to 6:00 p.m.
FISCAL IMPACT - None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On March 8, 2016, the Commission recommended that the City Council change the
Commission's meeting start time from 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. This change will allow
participants and the general public sufficient time to prepare for and travel to
Commission meetings after regular work hours. It is expected this start time will
reduce the number of future Commission meetings that end after 9:00 p.m., thus
minimizing time constraints which could impact participation by project applicants, and
the general public.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may elect not to approve the time change and leave the meeting start time
at 7:00 p.m.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING° April 5, 2016
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: ADOPT RESOLUTION GRANTING CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF FINAL PARCEL
MAP AND SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT ASSOCIATED WITH PARCEL MAP NO.
36855 WITHIN THE MADISON CLUB DEVELOPMENT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution granting conditional approval of Final Parcel Map and Subdivision
Improvement Agreement for Parcel Map No. 36855; and authorize the City Manager to
execute said agreement.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• East of Madison, LLC (Developer), the developer of Parcel Map No. 36855 located
within the Madison Club, has requested conditional approval of a Final Parcel Map.
• This ministerial action completes the subdivision process. The Developer has either
satisfied all conditions or will secure them through agreements within 30 days.
FISCAL IMPACT - None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
Parcel Map No. 36855 is within the Madison Club residential development located north of
Avenue 54 and east of Madison Street (Attachment 1). The Final Parcel Map subdivides two
existing lots into three residential lots. The site was previously rough graded and on -site
street improvements were completed by the Developer.
The Developer seeks conditional approval of the Final Parcel Map (Attachment 2) and
Subdivision Improvement Agreement (Attachment 3). Thereafter, the Developer has 30
days to obtain all necessary signatures, execute the Subdivision Improvement Agreement,
and submit securities for the on -site improvements. If these activities are not completed
within 30 days, the map will be rescheduled for Council consideration only after all items are
complete.
ALTERNATIVES
The Council could deny conditional approval and require the Developer to complete all
items; however, this would unnecessarily burden the Developer and delay the project, and is
therefore not recommended.

RESOLUTION NO. 2016 -
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA
QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, GRANTING CONDITIONAL
APPROVAL OF FINAL PARCEL MAP AND SUBDIVISION
IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT ASSOCIATED WITH PARCEL
MAP NO. 36855 AND AUTHORIZING A TIME EXTENSION
FOR SATISFACTORY COMPLETION OF THE CONDITIONAL
REQUIREMENTS TO VALIDATE THE APPROVAL
WHEREAS, the City Council conducts only two regular meetings per month and
the time interval between these meetings occasionally creates an undue hardship for
business enterprises and individuals seeking approval of subdivision maps; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, as a matter of policy, allows a subdivider to have
City staff present a map for consideration of approval when the requisite items
necessary for a final map approval are nearly, but not completely, finished; thus,
yielding to the subdivider additional production time for preparation of those items;
and
WHEREAS, the subdivider has demonstrated to City staff and the City Council
that it has made sufficient progress with items required for final map approval, and it
is reasonable to expect the subdivider to satisfactorily complete the items, including
City staff review time, within thirty (30) days without adversely impacting other
ongoing work commitments of City staff, and
WHEREAS, Section 66458(b) of the Subdivision Map Act grants the City Council
broad authority to authorize time extensions regarding final map approval, or
disapproval, upon receiving it for consideration; and
WHEREAS, the City Council relies on City staff to review all required items for
conformance with relevant requirements, and it is therefore appropriate for the City
Council to approve the final map subject to review and confirmation of the required
items by City staff within a reasonable period of time.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La Quinta,
California, as follows:
SECTION 1. The Final Parcel Map 36855 is conditionally approved provided the
subdivider submits all required item(s) on or before May 5, 2016.
SECTION 2. The City Council's approval of the Final Parcel Map shall not be considered
valid until the City Engineer has signed the map indicating that it conforms to the
tentative parcel map, the Subdivision Map Act, and all ordinances of the City.
SECTION 3. The City Engineer shall withhold his signature from the map until the
subdivider has completed the following requirement and any other requirements not
expressly described here to the City Engineer's satisfaction:

B. Provide executed Subdivision Improvement Agreement
C. Submit securities for on -site improvements
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall withhold affixing the City Seal to the map title page,
along with her attesting signature, until the City Engineer has signed the map.
SECTION 5. The time extension for satisfying the requirements of the conditional
approval for this Final Parcel Map shall expire when City offices close for regular
business on May 5, 2016. If the subdivider has not satisfied the requirements in
Section 3, herein, by the expiration deadline, the Final Parcel Map shall be considered
disapproved. Disapproval does not deny any rights the subdivider may have under the
Map Act to resubmit the Final Parcel Map for approval, or disapproval.

ON -SITE IMPROVEMENTS
THIS SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into this
day of 120 ,
by and between East of Madison, a Delaware limited liability company, hereinafter referred to as
"Subdivider," and the City of La Quinta, a municipal corporation of the State of California, hereinafter
referred to as "City."
RECITALS:
A. Subdivider has prepared and submitted to City for final approval and recordation a final map or Parcel
map (the "Map") of a unit of land in the City of La Quinta, County of Riverside, which unit of land is
known as Parcel No. 36855 (the "Parcel") pursuant to the provisions of Section 66410, et seq. of the
California Government Code (the "Subdivision Map Act"). The Subdivision Map Act and City
ordinances and regulations relating to the filing, approval and recordation of subdivision maps are
sometimes collectively referred to in this Agreement as the "Subdivision Laws."
B. A tentative map of the Parcel has been approved subject to the Subdivision Laws and to the
requirements and conditions adopted at the Director's Hearing on August 25, 2015 (the "Conditons of
Approval"). The Conditions of Approval is on file in the office of the City Clerk and is incorporated into
this Agreement by reference.
C. Prior to approval of the Map, Subdivider is required to install or agree to install certain public and
private improvements (the "Improvements").
D. The Improvements have not been installed and accepted at this time.
E. It is therefore necessary that Subdivider and City enter into an agreement for the installation of the
Improvements as provided in Section 66462 of the Subdivision Map Act. In consideration of approval
of a final map for the Parcel by the City Council, Subdivder desires to enter into this Agreement,
whereby Subdivider promises to install and complete, at Subdivider's own expense, all the public
improvement work required by City in connection with the proposed Parcel. Subdivider has secured
this Agreement by improvement security required by the Subdivision Laws and approved by the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed by and between the parties hereto as follows:
1. Improvement Plans. Prior to submittal of the Map for approval by the City Council, Subdivider shall
furnish complete original improvement plans for the construction, installation and completion of the
Improvements meeting the requirements of the City Engineer. The Improvement Plans for the Parcel
shall be maintained on file in the office of the City Engineer and shall be incorporated into this
Agreement by reference. All references in this Agreement to the Improvement Plans shall include
reference to any specifications for the Improvements as approved by the City Engineer.
2. Improvements. Subdivider shall construct the Improvements required to be constructed on the
Improvement Plans or agreed to be constructed under the Resolution of Approval and this Agreement
as more specifically described in Exhibit "A." attached hereto and expressly made a part hereof by
this reference, and shall bear the full cost thereof. The methods, standards, specifications, sequence,
and scheduling of construction shall be as approved by the City Engineer.
3. Improvement Security. Subdivder shall at all times guarantee Subdivider's performance of this
Agreement by furnishing to City, and maintaining, good and sufficient security as required by the
Subdivision Laws on forms and in the amounts approved by City for the purposes as follows:
A. One class of security to be provided by Subdivider, hereinafter referred to as "performance
security," shall assure the faithful performance of this Agreement including construction of the
Improvements, payment of Subdivider's fair share of Improvements which have been or will be
constructed by others ("Participatory Improvements"), and payment of plan check and permit
1 of 9

fees. The performance security shall also include good and sufficient security in the amount of
one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated cost of setting subdivision monuments as stated
hereafter in this Agreement ("Monumentation Security"). A second class of security to be
provided by Subdivider, hereinafter referred to as "payment security," shall assure the payment of
the cost of labor, equipment and materials supplied to construct the Improvements. A third class
of security to be provided by Subdivider, hereinafter referred to as "warranty security," shall serve
as a guarantee and warranty of the Improvements for a period of one year following the
completion and acceptance of the Improvements. Subdivider shall furnish performance and
payment security prior to and as a condition precedent to City Council approval of the Map.
Subdivider shall provide warranty security after Improvements are complete and prior to
acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council. Warranty security shall not be required for
Monumentation or Participatory Improvements. However, the City may utilize Monumentation
Security for performance of or payment for the work in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act.
As part of the obligation secured by each of the performance security, payment security and
warranty security, and in addition to the face amount of each such security, each such security
shall include and assure the payment of costs and reasonable expenses and fees, including
reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by City in successfully enforcing the obligations thereby
secured.

may be one or more of the following:
1) A cash deposit with City or a responsible escrow agent or trust company, at City's option.
2) Surety bonds, of the form specified in subsection 66499.2 of the California Government
Code, issued by a surety or sureties listed in the U.S. Department of Treasury Circular 570
(latest version).
3) Certificates of deposit, in City's name, from one or more financial institutions subject to
regulation by the state or federal government and having a financial quality rating of "A" or
better and a commitment reliability rating of "R-2" or better on the Investment Data Exchange
(of the Los Angeles County Treasurer's office).
4) Irrevocable letters of credit, in a form acceptable to and approved by the City Attorney, issued
by one or more financial institutions meeting the requirements of Paragraph (3), pledging that
the funds necessary to carry out the completion of the Improvements are on deposit,
guaranteed for payment, and constitute a trust fund which is not subject to levy or attachment
by any creditor of the depositor until released by City. Letters of credit shall guarantee that all
or any portion of the funds available pursuant to the letters of credit will be paid upon the
written demand of City and that such written demand need not present documentation of any
type as a condition of payment, including proof of loss. The duration of any such letter of
credit shall be for a period of not less than one year from the execution of the agreement with
which it is provided and shall state, on its face, that the letter of credit will be automatically
renewed until such time that City authorizes its expiration or until sixty (60) days after City
receives notice from the financial institution of intent to allow expiration of the letter of credit.
5) A lien upon the subdivided property, if City finds that it would not be in the public interest to
require the installation of the Improvements sooner than two (2) years after recordation of the
final map or Parcel map for which the Improvements are required. The lien shall provide a
collateral value of three (3) times the estimated cost of the Improvements and shall include
the power of sale of the real property, all buildings and improvements thereon, or that may be
erected upon or made thereto, together with all hereditaments and appurtenances thereunto
belonging, or in any wise appertaining, and the reservations, remainders, rents, issues, and
profits thereof. The collateral value of the property shall be established at Subdivider's
expense through an appraisal approved by City.
6) An instrument of credit from an agency of the state, federal or local government, when any
agency of the state, federal, or local government provides at least twenty percent (20%) of
the financing for the Improvements.
7) When Subdivider is a non-profit organization, security may be negotiable bonds, of the kind
approved for securing deposits of public moneys with City or in favor of City, as specified in
Section 16430 of the California Government Code, deposited, at City's option, with City or a
responsible escrow agent or trust company.
C. All securities shall be furnished in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit A. The amount of the
performance security shall equal one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated cost of
constructing the Improvements, including payment of plan check and permit fees, as estimated by
the City Engineer or a duly authorized representative of the City Engineer. The amount of
Payment security shall equal the amount of the amount of performance security, except as
otherwise set forth in Exhibit A, and shall be furnished as a separate security. Warranty security
shall equal Ten Percent (10%) of the amount of performance security except as otherwise set
forth in Exhibit A. The securities required by this Agreement shall be kept on file with the City
Clerk. The terms of the security documents specified in this Agreement are incorporated into this
Agreement by this reference. If any security is replaced by another approved security, the
replacement shall be filed with the City Clerk and, upon filing, shall be deemed to have been
made a part of and incorporated into this Agreement. Upon filing of a replacement security with
the City Clerk, the former security may be released. The City Engineer shall approve replacement
of security.
D. At the time of submittal of security, Subdivider shall pay to City administrative fees applicable to
the form of security provided. Administrative fees shall apply to the subdivision (final map, Parcel
map or waiver of Parcel map) rather than to individual security instruments. The fees shall be
paid separately for each different form and/or source (surety or financial institution) of security
initially submitted and for substitution of securities but shall not be required for submittal of
warranty security if the warranty security is of the same form and from the same source as the
performance security it replaces. Administrative fees for security shall be as follows:
1) For certificates of deposit, bonds and letters of credit as described in Paragraphs 2), 3) and
4) of SECTION 3.B., which require the establishment of evidence of the reliability of the
surety or financial institution, the administrative fee shall be One Hundred Fifty Dollars
($150.00).
2) For liens on real property as described in Paragraph 5) of SECTION 3.B., for which City will
prepare lien agreements and subordination agreements, administer valuation of the real
property and administer the agreements over the life of the lien, all of which require legal
assistance and financial advice, Subdivider shall pay to City an administration fee of One Half
of One Percent (0.5%) of the estimated cost of the improvements secured but not less than
Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) nor more than Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00).
3) For other forms of security listed in Section 3 B, above, there will be no administrative fee.
E. Participatory Improvements, if any, are identified in Exhibit A. Security for Participatory
Improvements shall remain in place until the Participatory Improvements are constructed and
actual costs are known and paid by Subdivider, or until Subdivider pays to City the estimated cost
of the Participatory Improvements, and shall guarantee the reimbursement by Subdivider of
Subdivider's share of the cost of the Participatory Improvements. Payment security and warranty
security shall not be required for Participatory Improvements.
Upon written demand from City, Subdivider shall deposit cash with City in lieu of or in
replacement of security guaranteeing Participatory Improvements. If Subdivider fails to deposit
said cash within 30 days of the date of the written demand from City, City may present a written
demand to Subdivider's Surety for payment of said cash and Subdivider's Surety shall pay to City
the lesser of: 1) the amount demanded, or 2) the amount of the security.
F. Security shall not expire, be reduced or become wholly or partially invalid for any reason,
including non-payment of premiums, modifications of this Agreement and/or expiration of the time
for performance stated in this Agreement.
G. Security shall be released in the following manner:
1) Performance security shall be released upon the final completion and acceptance or
approval, by the City Council of the Improvements subject to the provisions of Section 10 of
this Agreement.
2) The City Engineer may authorize partial reduction of performance security as work
progresses, upon application by Subdivider. However, no such reduction shall be for an
amount less than Ten Percent (10%) of the total performance security provided for the faithful
performance of the act or work. In no event shall security be reduced below that required to
guarantee the completion of the act or work or obligation secured, plus Ten Percent (10%).
The City Engineer shall not allow more than two partial reductions of security furnished for
any improvement agreement.
3) Participatory Improvement security shall be released upon payment by Subdivider of
Subdivider's share of the cost or estimated cost of the Participatory Improvements.
4) If City receives no notice of recorded claims of lien, labor and materials security shall be
released in full 90 days after final acceptance and/or approval by the City Council, of the
Improvements. If City receives notice of any recorded lien, the provisions of the Subdivision
Map Act shall apply.
5) No security given for the guarantee or warranty of work shall be released until the expiration
of the warranty period and until any claims filed during the warranty period have been settled.
As provided in paragraph 13 of this Agreement, the warranty period shall not commence until
final acceptance of all the work and improvements by the City pursuant to Paragraph 10.
Warranty security not utilized during the warranty period shall be released one year after final
acceptance or approval by the City Council of all Improvements. However, if at the end of the
one-year warranty period, there are one or more outstanding requests by City for
performance of work or provision of materials under the terms of the warranty, warranty
security shall be retained until the outstanding requests are satisfied or until Subdivider has
made other arrangements satisfactory to the City Engineer.
6) City may retain from any security released an amount sufficient to cover costs and
reasonable expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
4. Permits Required. Prior to commencing any phase of work, Subdivider shall obtain all permits
required for that phase of work and pay all required fees. Work performed under a permit or permits
shall comply with all provisions of the required permits.
5. Off -site Improvements. When the construction of one or more of the Improvements requires or
necessitates the acquisition of real property not owned by Subdivider or City, Subdivider shall use its
best efforts purchase such real property at a reasonable price. In the event that Subdivider is
unsuccessful, despite its best efforts, to acquire such real property at a reasonable price, Subdivider
may request in writing that City attempt to acquire such real property. City may, but is not required to,
agree to attempt to acquire such real property on behalf of Subdivider. If City so agrees, City and
Subdivider shall enter a separate written agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney. Said
separate agreement shall provide that Subdivider advance to City One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%)
of the appraised fair market value of the real property. Any unexpended portion of said advance shall
be refunded to Subdivider. Any additional funds required for acquisition of the real property shall be
paid by Subdivider to City upon the conveyance of said real property to Subdivider. In no event shall
the failure of Subdivider or City to acquire such real property excuse, waive, or otherwise terminate
Subdivider's obligation to construct the applicable improvement pursuant to this Agreement or the
Conditions of Approval.
6. Completion of Improvements; Inspection.
6.1 Construction of Improvements. Subdivider shall begin construction of the Improvements within
ninety (90) days and shall complete construction within twelve (12) months after the approval of this
Agreement. Portions of the Improvements may be completed at a later date, as determined by the
City Engineer or as set forth in Exhibit A. Failure by Subdivider to begin or complete construction of
the Improvements within the specified time periods shall constitute cause for City, in its sole
discretion and when it deems necessary, to declare Subdivider in default of this agreement, to revise
4 of
52
9
improvement security requirements as necessary to ensure completion of the improvements, and/or
to require modifications in the standards or sequencing of the Improvements in response to changes

6.2 Inspection. Subdivider shall at all times maintain proper facilities and safe access for inspection
of the public improvements by City and to the shops wherein any work is in preparation. Upon
completion of the work, the Subdivider may request a final inspection by the City Engineer or the City
Engineer's authorized representative. If the City Engineer or the designated representative
determines that the work has been completed in accordance with this Agreement, then the City
Engineer shall certify the completion of the public improvements to the City Council. No
improvements shall be finally accepted unless all aspects of the work have been inspected and
determined to have been completed in accordance with the Improvement Plans and City standards
and accepted by the City as described in Paragraph 10 of this Agreement. Subdivider shall bear all
costs of plan check, inspection and certification.
7. Force Majeure. In the event that Subdivider is unable to perform within the time limits herein due to
strikes, act of God, or other events beyond Subdivider's control, the time limits for obligations affected
by such events will be extended by the period of such events.
8. Time Extension. Subdivider may make application in writing to the City Council for an extension of
time for completion of the Improvements. The City Council, in its sole and absolute discretion, may

terms and conditions of this Agreement.
As a condition of the time extension, Subdivider shall furnish securities, similar in form and substance
to those required in SECTION 3 hereinabove, to cover the period of extension. The value of the

incomplete at the time of the extension, and to provide warranty security on completed
Improvements.

monuments in accordance with the provisions of Sections 66495, et sec. of the Subdivision Map Act
and of the La Quinta Municipal Code. Subdivider shall provide the City Engineer written proof that
the monuments have been set, evidence of payment and receipt thereof by the engineer or surveyor
setting the monuments, and intersection monument tie -outs for monuments set in public streets.

be accompanied by any required certifications from Subdivider's engineers or surveyors, approval
letters from other agencies having jurisdiction over and approval authority for improvements required
by this Agreement or the Conditions of Approval, and any required construction quality documentation
not previously submitted.
Upon receipt of said request, the City Engineer or a duly -authorized representative will review the
required documentation and will inspect the Improvements. If the Improvements are determined to
be in accordance with applicable City standards and specifications, and as provided herein,
obligations required by the Conditions set forth in the Resolution of Approval and this Agreement
have been satisfied, and Subdivider has provided revised plans as required in Paragraph 12,
hereinafter, the City Engineer shall recommend acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council.

maintenance of, and any damage to such improvements. City shall not, nor shall any officer or
employee thereof, be liable or responsible for any accident, loss or damage, regardless of cause,
happening or occurring to the work or improvements specified in this Agreement prior to the
completion and acceptance of the work or improvements. All such risks shall be the responsibility of

plans depict the actual Improvements constructed. When necessary revisions have been made, each
separate sheet of the plans shall be clearly marked with the words "As -Built," "As -Constructed," or
"Record Drawing," the marking shall be stamped by an engineer or surveyor, as appropriate for the
improvements thereon, who is licensed to practice in California, and the plans shall be resubmitted to
the City Engineer.

or constructed by Subdivider fails to fulfill any of the requirements of this Agreement or the
improvement plans and specifications referred to herein, Subdivider shall without delay and without
any cost to City, repair or replace or reconstruct any defective or otherwise unsatisfactory part or
parts of the work or structure. Should Subdivider fail to act promptly or in accordance with this
requirement, Subdivider hereby authorizes City, at City's sole option, to perform the work twenty (20)
days after mailing written notice of default to Subdivider and to Subidivider's Surety, and agrees to
pay the cost of such work by City. Should City determine that an urgency requires repairs or
replacements to be made before Subdivider can be notified, City may, in its sole discretion, make the
necessary repairs or replacement or perform the necessary work and Subdivider shall pay to City the
cost of such repairs
14. Release of Security. City shall retain and release securities in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3 of this agreement. Prior to the release of payment security, the City Engineer may require

default from City, then City may perform the obligation, and Subdivider shall pay the entire cost of
such performance by City including costs of suit and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by City in
enforcing such obligation. In cases of emergency or compelling public interest, as determined by the
City Engineer, the requirement for written notice of default and/or the passage of sixty (60) days shall
be deemed waived and all other provisions of this Article shall remain in effect.
16. Jury to Public Improvements, Public Property or Public Utility Facilities. Subdivider shall replace or
have replaced, or repair or have repaired, as the case may be, all public improvements, public utilities
facilities and surveying or subdivision monuments which are destroyed or damaged as a result of any

the State of California, or any agency or political subdivision thereof, or by City or any public or
private utility corporation or by any combination of such owners. Any repair or replacement shall be to
the satisfaction, and subject to the approval, of the City Engineer.

out of, in whole or in part, the design of construction of the Improvements. This indemnification and
agreement to hold harmless shall extend to injuries to persons and damages or taking of property

b. Acceptance by City of the Improvements shall not constitute an assumption by City of any
responsibility for any damage or taking covered by this paragraph. City shall not be responsible for
the design or construction of the subdivision or the improvements pursuant to the approved
Improvement Plans or map, regardless of any negligent action or inaction taken by City in approving
the plans or map, unless the particular improvement design was specifically required by City over
written objection by Subdivider submitted to the City Engineer before approval of the particular
improvement design, which objection indicated that the particular improvement design was
dangerous or defective and suggested an alternative safe and feasible design. Except as may be
provided above, City shall not be liable for any negligence, nonfeasance, misfeasance or
malfeasance in approving, reviewing, checking, or correcting any plans or specifications or in
approving, reviewing or inspecting any work or construction. Nothing contained in this paragraph is
intended to or shall be deemed to limit or waive any protections or immunities afforded by law to City
or any and all of its officials, employees and agents ("Indemnified Parties"), by virtue of city's approval
of the plan or design of the Improvements, including without limitation the protections and immunities
afforded by Government Code Section 830.6. After acceptance of the improvements, Subdivider shall
remain obligated to eliminate any defect in design or dangerous condition caused by the design or
construction defect; however, Subdivider shall not be responsible for routine maintenance. Provisions
of this paragraph shall remain in full force and effect for ten (10) years following the acceptance by
City of the Improvements. It is the intent of this paragraph that Subdivider shall be responsible for all
liability for design and construction of the Improvements installed or work done pursuant to this
Agreement and that city shall not be liable for any negligence, nonfeasance, misfeasance or
malfeasance in approving, reviewing, checking, or correcting any plans or specifications or in
approving, reviewing or inspecting any work or construction. The Improvement Security shall not be
required to cover the provisions of this paragraph.

provision of the Conditions of Approval. In the event that any requirement or condition of this
Agreement is inconsistent with or fails to include one or more provisions of the Conditions of

provisions of this Agreement are unenforceable, all provisions not so held shall remain in full force
and effect.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: ADOPT RESOLUTION GRANTING CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF FINAL
PARCEL MAP AND SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT ASSOCIATED WITH PARCEL
MAP NO. 36856 WITHIN THE MADISON CLUB DEVELOPMENT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution granting conditional approval of Final Parcel Map and Subdivision
Improvement Agreement for Parcel Map No. 36856; and authorize the City Manager to
execute said agreement.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• East of Madison, LLC (Developer), the developer of Parcel Map No. 36856 located
within the Madison Club, has requested conditional approval of a Final Parcel Map.
• This ministerial action completes the subdivision process. The Developer has either
satisfied all conditions of development or will secure them through agreements
within 30 days.
FISCAL IMPACT — None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
Parcel Map No. 36856 is within the Madison Club residential development located north of
Avenue 54 and east of Madison Street (Attachment 1). The Final Parcel Map subdivides one
existing lot into two residential lots. The site was previously rough graded and on -site
street improvements were completed by the Developer.
The Developer seeks conditional approval of the Final Parcel Map (Attachment 2) and
Subdivision Improvement Agreement (Attachment 3). Thereafter, the Developer has 30
days to obtain all necessary signatures, execute the Subdivision Improvement Agreement,
and submit securities for the on -site improvements. If these activities are not completed
within 30 days, the map will be rescheduled for Council consideration only after all items
are complete.
ALTERNATIVES
The Council could deny conditional approval and require the Developer to complete all
items; however, this would unnecessarily burden the Developer and delay the project,
therefore is not recommended.

RESOLUTION NO. 2016 -
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA
QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, GRANTING CONDITIONAL
APPROVAL OF FINAL PARCEL MAP AND SUBDIVISION
IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT ASSOCIATED WITH PARCEL
MAP NO. 36856 AND AUTHORIZING A TIME EXTENSION
FOR SATISFACTORY COMPLETION OF THE CONDITIONAL
REQUIREMENTS TO VALIDATE THE APPROVAL
WHEREAS, the City Council conducts only two regular meetings per month and
the time interval between these meetings occasionally creates an undue hardship for
business enterprises and individuals seeking approval of subdivision maps; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, as a matter of policy, allows a subdivider to have
City staff present a map for consideration of approval when the requisite items
necessary for a final map approval are nearly, but not completely, finished; thus,
yielding to the subdivider additional production time for preparation of those items;
and
WHEREAS, the subdivider has demonstrated to City staff and the City Council
that it has made sufficient progress with items required for final map approval, and it
is reasonable to expect the subdivider to satisfactorily complete the items, including
City staff review time, within thirty (30) days without adversely impacting other
ongoing work commitments of City staff, and
WHEREAS, Section 66458(b) of the Subdivision Map Act grants the City Council
broad authority to authorize time extensions regarding final map approval, or
disapproval, upon receiving it for consideration; and
WHEREAS, the City Council relies on City staff to review all required items for
conformance with relevant requirements, and it is therefore appropriate for the City
Council to approve the final map subject to review and confirmation of the required
items by City staff within a reasonable period of time.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La Quinta,
California, as follows:
SECTION 1. The Final Parcel Map 36856 is conditionally approved provided the
subdivider submits all required item(s) on or before May 5, 2016.
SECTION 2. The City Council's approval of the Final Parcel Map shall not be considered
valid until the City Engineer has signed the map indicating that it conforms to the
tentative tract map, the Subdivision Map Act, and all ordinances of the City.
SECTION 3. The City Engineer shall withhold his signature from the map until the
subdivider has completed the following requirement and any other requirements not
expressly described here to the City Engineer's satisfaction:

SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall withhold affixing the City Seal to the map title page,

SECTION 5. The time extension for satisfying the requirements of the conditional
approval for this final map shall expire when City offices close for regular business on
May 5, 2016. If the subdivider has not satisfied the requirements in Section 3, herein,
by the expiration deadline, the Final Parcel Map shall be considered disapproved.
Disapproval does not deny any rights the subdivider may have under the Map Act to
resubmit the final map for approval, or disapproval.

CITY OF LA QUINTA
SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT
PARCEL MAP NO. 36856
ON -SITE IMPROVEMENTS
THIS SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into this
day of 120 ,
by and between East of Madison, a Delaware limited liability company, hereinafter referred to as
"Subdivider," and the City of La Quinta, a municipal corporation of the State of California, hereinafter
referred to as "City."
RECITALS:
A. Subdivider has prepared and submitted to City for final approval and recordation a final map or Parcel
map (the "Map") of a unit of land in the City of La Quinta, County of Riverside, which unit of land is
known as Parcel No. 36856 (the "Parcel") pursuant to the provisions of Section 66410, et seq. of the
California Government Code (the "Subdivision Map Act"). The Subdivision Map Act and City
ordinances and regulations relating to the filing, approval and recordation of subdivision maps are
sometimes collectively referred to in this Agreement as the "Subdivision Laws."
B. A tentative map of the Parcel has been approved subject to the Subdivision Laws and to the
requirements and conditions adopted at the Director's Hearing on August 25, 2015 (the "Conditons of
Approval"). The Conditions of Approval is on file in the office of the City Clerk and is incorporated into
this Agreement by reference.
C. Prior to approval of the Map, Subdivider is required to install or agree to install certain public and
private improvements (the "Improvements").
D. The Improvements have not been installed and accepted at this time.
E. It is therefore necessary that Subdivider and City enter into an agreement for the installation of the
Improvements as provided in Section 66462 of the Subdivision Map Act. In consideration of approval
of a final map for the Parcel by the City Council, Subdivder desires to enter into this Agreement,
whereby Subdivider promises to install and complete, at Subdivider's own expense, all the public
improvement work required by City in connection with the proposed Parcel. Subdivider has secured
this Agreement by improvement security required by the Subdivision Laws and approved by the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed by and between the parties hereto as follows:
1. Improvement Plans. Prior to submittal of the Map for approval by the City Council, Subdivider shall
furnish complete original improvement plans for the construction, installation and completion of the
Improvements meeting the requirements of the City Engineer. The Improvement Plans for the Parcel
shall be maintained on file in the office of the City Engineer and shall be incorporated into this
Agreement by reference. All references in this Agreement to the Improvement Plans shall include
reference to any specifications for the Improvements as approved by the City Engineer.
2. Improvements. Subdivider shall construct the Improvements required to be constructed on the
Improvement Plans or agreed to be constructed under the Resolution of Approval and this Agreement
as more specifically described in Exhibit "A." attached hereto and expressly made a part hereof by
this reference, and shall bear the full cost thereof. The methods, standards, specifications, sequence,
and scheduling of construction shall be as approved by the City Engineer.
3. Improvement Security. Subdivder shall at all times guarantee Subdivider's performance of this
Agreement by furnishing to City, and maintaining, good and sufficient security as required by the
Subdivision Laws on forms and in the amounts approved by City for the purposes as follows:
A. One class of security to be provided by Subdivider, hereinafter referred to as "performance
security," shall assure the faithful performance of this Agreement including construction of the
Improvements, payment of Subdivider's fair share of Improvements which have been or will be
constructed by others ("Participatory Improvements"), and payment of plan check and permit
67
1 of 9
fees. The performance security shall also include good and sufficient security in the amount of
one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated cost of setting subdivision monuments as stated
hereafter in this Agreement ("Monumentation Security"). A second class of security to be
provided by Subdivider, hereinafter referred to as "payment security," shall assure the payment of
the cost of labor, equipment and materials supplied to construct the Improvements. A third class
of security to be provided by Subdivider, hereinafter referred to as "warranty security," shall serve
as a guarantee and warranty of the Improvements for a period of one year following the
completion and acceptance of the Improvements. Subdivider shall furnish performance and
payment security prior to and as a condition precedent to City Council approval of the Map.
Subdivider shall provide warranty security after Improvements are complete and prior to
acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council. Warranty security shall not be required for
Monumentation or Participatory Improvements. However, the City may utilize Monumentation
Security for performance of or payment for the work in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act.
As part of the obligation secured by each of the performance security, payment security and
warranty security, and in addition to the face amount of each such security, each such security
shall include and assure the payment of costs and reasonable expenses and fees, including
reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by City in successfully enforcing the obligations thereby
secured.
B. Improvement security shall conform with Section 66499 of the California Government Code and
may be one or more of the following:
1) A cash deposit with City or a responsible escrow agent or trust company, at City's option.
2) Surety bonds, of the form specified in subsection 66499.2 of the California Government
Code, issued by a surety or sureties listed in the U.S. Department of Treasury Circular 570
(latest version).
3) Certificates of deposit, in City's name, from one or more financial institutions subject to
regulation by the state or federal government and having a financial quality rating of "A" or
better and a commitment reliability rating of "R-2" or better on the Investment Data Exchange
(of the Los Angeles County Treasurer's office).
4) Irrevocable letters of credit, in a form acceptable to and approved by the City Attorney, issued
by one or more financial institutions meeting the requirements of Paragraph (3), pledging that
the funds necessary to carry out the completion of the Improvements are on deposit,
guaranteed for payment, and constitute a trust fund which is not subject to levy or attachment
by any creditor of the depositor until released by City. Letters of credit shall guarantee that all
or any portion of the funds available pursuant to the letters of credit will be paid upon the
written demand of City and that such written demand need not present documentation of any
type as a condition of payment, including proof of loss. The duration of any such letter of
credit shall be for a period of not less than one year from the execution of the agreement with
which it is provided and shall state, on its face, that the letter of credit will be automatically
renewed until such time that City authorizes its expiration or until sixty (60) days after City
receives notice from the financial institution of intent to allow expiration of the letter of credit.
5) A lien upon the subdivided property, if City finds that it would not be in the public interest to
require the installation of the Improvements sooner than two (2) years after recordation of the
final map or Parcel map for which the Improvements are required. The lien shall provide a
collateral value of three (3) times the estimated cost of the Improvements and shall include
the power of sale of the real property, all buildings and improvements thereon, or that may be
erected upon or made thereto, together with all hereditaments and appurtenances thereunto
belonging, or in any wise appertaining, and the reservations, remainders, rents, issues, and
profits thereof. The collateral value of the property shall be established at Subdivider's
expense through an appraisal approved by City.
6) An instrument of credit from an agency of the state, federal or local government, when any
agency of the state, federal, or local government provides at least twenty percent (20%) of
the financing for the Improvements.
29
7) When Subdivider is a non-profit organization, security may be negotiable bonds, of the kind
approved for securing deposits of public moneys with City or in favor of City, as specified in
Section 16430 of the California Government Code, deposited, at City's option, with City or a
responsible escrow agent or trust company.
C. All securities shall be furnished in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit A. The amount of the
performance security shall equal one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated cost of
constructing the Improvements, including payment of plan check and permit fees, as estimated by
the City Engineer or a duly authorized representative of the City Engineer. The amount of
Payment security shall equal the amount of the amount of performance security, except as
otherwise set forth in Exhibit A, and shall be furnished as a separate security. Warranty security
shall equal Ten Percent (10%) of the amount of performance security except as otherwise set
forth in Exhibit A. The securities required by this Agreement shall be kept on file with the City
Clerk. The terms of the security documents specified in this Agreement are incorporated into this
Agreement by this reference. If any security is replaced by another approved security, the
replacement shall be filed with the City Clerk and, upon filing, shall be deemed to have been
made a part of and incorporated into this Agreement. Upon filing of a replacement security with
the City Clerk, the former security may be released. The City Engineer shall approve replacement
of security.
D. At the time of submittal of security, Subdivider shall pay to City administrative fees applicable to
the form of security provided. Administrative fees shall apply to the subdivision (final map, Parcel
map or waiver of Parcel map) rather than to individual security instruments. The fees shall be
paid separately for each different form and/or source (surety or financial institution) of security
initially submitted and for substitution of securities but shall not be required for submittal of
warranty security if the warranty security is of the same form and from the same source as the
performance security it replaces. Administrative fees for security shall be as follows:
1) For certificates of deposit, bonds and letters of credit as described in Paragraphs 2), 3) and
4) of SECTION 3.B., which require the establishment of evidence of the reliability of the
surety or financial institution, the administrative fee shall be One Hundred Fifty Dollars
($150.00).
2) For liens on real property as described in Paragraph 5) of SECTION 3.B., for which City will
prepare lien agreements and subordination agreements, administer valuation of the real
property and administer the agreements over the life of the lien, all of which require legal
assistance and financial advice, Subdivider shall pay to City an administration fee of One Half
of One Percent (0.5%) of the estimated cost of the improvements secured but not less than
Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) nor more than Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00).
3) For other forms of security listed in Section 3 B, above, there will be no administrative fee.
E. Participatory Improvements, if any, are identified in Exhibit A. Security for Participatory
Improvements shall remain in place until the Participatory Improvements are constructed and
actual costs are known and paid by Subdivider, or until Subdivider pays to City the estimated cost
of the Participatory Improvements, and shall guarantee the reimbursement by Subdivider of
Subdivider's share of the cost of the Participatory Improvements. Payment security and warranty
security shall not be required for Participatory Improvements.
Upon written demand from City, Subdivider shall deposit cash with City in lieu of or in
replacement of security guaranteeing Participatory Improvements. If Subdivider fails to deposit
said cash within 30 days of the date of the written demand from City, City may present a written
demand to Subdivider's Surety for payment of said cash and Subdivider's Surety shall pay to City
the lesser of: 1) the amount demanded, or 2) the amount of the security.
F. Security shall not expire, be reduced or become wholly or partially invalid for any reason,
including non-payment of premiums, modifications of this Agreement and/or expiration of the time
for performance stated in this Agreement.
G. Security shall be released in the following manner:
1) Performance security shall be released upon the final completion and acceptance or
approval, by the City Council of the Improvements subject to the provisions of Section 10 of
this Agreement.
2) The City Engineer may authorize partial reduction of performance security as work
progresses, upon application by Subdivider. However, no such reduction shall be for an
amount less than Ten Percent (10%) of the total performance security provided for the faithful
performance of the act or work. In no event shall security be reduced below that required to
guarantee the completion of the act or work or obligation secured, plus Ten Percent (10%).
The City Engineer shall not allow more than two partial reductions of security furnished for
any improvement agreement.
3) Participatory Improvement security shall be released upon payment by Subdivider of
Subdivider's share of the cost or estimated cost of the Participatory Improvements.
4) If City receives no notice of recorded claims of lien, labor and materials security shall be
released in full 90 days after final acceptance and/or approval by the City Council, of the
Improvements. If City receives notice of any recorded lien, the provisions of the Subdivision
Map Act shall apply.
5) No security given for the guarantee or warranty of work shall be released until the expiration
of the warranty period and until any claims filed during the warranty period have been settled.
As provided in paragraph 13 of this Agreement, the warranty period shall not commence until
final acceptance of all the work and improvements by the City pursuant to Paragraph 10.
Warranty security not utilized during the warranty period shall be released one year after final
acceptance or approval by the City Council of all Improvements. However, if at the end of the
one-year warranty period, there are one or more outstanding requests by City for
performance of work or provision of materials under the terms of the warranty, warranty
security shall be retained until the outstanding requests are satisfied or until Subdivider has
made other arrangements satisfactory to the City Engineer.
6) City may retain from any security released an amount sufficient to cover costs and
reasonable expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
4. Permits Required. Prior to commencing any phase of work, Subdivider shall obtain all permits
required for that phase of work and pay all required fees. Work performed under a permit or permits
shall comply with all provisions of the required permits.
5. Off -site Improvements. When the construction of one or more of the Improvements requires or
necessitates the acquisition of real property not owned by Subdivider or City, Subdivider shall use its
best efforts purchase such real property at a reasonable price. In the event that Subdivider is
unsuccessful, despite its best efforts, to acquire such real property at a reasonable price, Subdivider
may request in writing that City attempt to acquire such real property. City may, but is not required to,
agree to attempt to acquire such real property on behalf of Subdivider. If City so agrees, City and
Subdivider shall enter a separate written agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney. Said
separate agreement shall provide that Subdivider advance to City One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%)
of the appraised fair market value of the real property. Any unexpended portion of said advance shall
be refunded to Subdivider. Any additional funds required for acquisition of the real property shall be
paid by Subdivider to City upon the conveyance of said real property to Subdivider. In no event shall
the failure of Subdivider or City to acquire such real property excuse, waive, or otherwise terminate
Subdivider's obligation to construct the applicable improvement pursuant to this Agreement or the
Conditions of Approval.

70
improvement security requirements as necessary to ensure completion of the improvements, and/or
to require modifications in the standards or sequencing of the Improvements in response to changes
in standards or conditions affecting or affected by the Improvements. Said failure shall not otherwise
affect the validity of this agreement or Subdivider's obligations hereunder.
6.2 Inspection. Subdivider shall at all times maintain proper facilities and safe access for inspection
of the public improvements by City and to the shops wherein any work is in preparation. Upon
completion of the work, the Subdivider may request a final inspection by the City Engineer or the City
Engineer's authorized representative. If the City Engineer or the designated representative
determines that the work has been completed in accordance with this Agreement, then the City
Engineer shall certify the completion of the public improvements to the City Council. No
improvements shall be finally accepted unless all aspects of the work have been inspected and
determined to have been completed in accordance with the Improvement Plans and City standards
and accepted by the City as described in Paragraph 10 of this Agreement. Subdivider shall bear all
costs of plan check, inspection and certification.
7. Force Majeure. In the event that Subdivider is unable to perform within the time limits herein due to
strikes, act of God, or other events beyond Subdivider's control, the time limits for obligations affected
by such events will be extended by the period of such events.
8. Time Extension. Subdivider may make application in writing to the City Council for an extension of
time for completion of the Improvements. The City Council, in its sole and absolute discretion, may
approve or deny the request or conditionally approve the extension with additions or revisions to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
As a condition of the time extension, Subdivider shall furnish securities, similar in form and substance
to those required in SECTION 3 hereinabove, to cover the period of extension. The value of the
securities shall be sufficient to ensure the performance of and payment for Improvements that remain
incomplete at the time of the extension, and to provide warranty security on completed
Improvements.
9. Survey Monuments. Before final approval of street improvements, Subdivider shall place survey
monuments in accordance with the provisions of Sections 66495, et sec. of the Subdivision Map Act
and of the La Quinta Municipal Code. Subdivider shall provide the City Engineer written proof that
the monuments have been set, evidence of payment and receipt thereof by the engineer or surveyor
setting the monuments, and intersection monument tie -outs for monuments set in public streets.
10. Final Acceptance of Improvements. At the completion of construction and prior to acceptance of the
Improvements by City, Subdivider shall submit a request for final approval by City. The request shall
be accompanied by any required certifications from Subdivider's engineers or surveyors, approval
letters from other agencies having jurisdiction over and approval authority for improvements required
by this Agreement or the Conditions of Approval, and any required construction quality documentation
not previously submitted.
Upon receipt of said request, the City Engineer or a duly -authorized representative will review the
required documentation and will inspect the Improvements. If the Improvements are determined to
be in accordance with applicable City standards and specifications, and as provided herein,
obligations required by the Conditions set forth in the Resolution of Approval and this Agreement
have been satisfied, and Subdivider has provided revised plans as required in Paragraph 12,
hereinafter, the City Engineer shall recommend acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council.
11. Jury to Improvements. Until such time as the Improvements are accepted by City in accordance
with Paragraph 10, Subdivider shall be responsible for and bear the risk of loss to any of the
improvements constructed or installed. Until such time as all Improvements required by this
Agreement are fully completed and accepted by City, Subdivider will be responsible for the care,
maintenance of, and any damage to such improvements. City shall not, nor shall any officer or
employee thereof, be liable or responsible for any accident, loss or damage, regardless of cause,
happening or occurring to the work or improvements specified in this Agreement prior to the
completion and acceptance of the work or improvements. All such risks shall be the responsibility of

12. Revisions to Plans. When the Improvements have been inspected and approved by the City
Engineer, Subdivider shall make any necessary revisions to the original plans held by City so the
plans depict the actual Improvements constructed. When necessary revisions have been made, each
separate sheet of the plans shall be clearly marked with the words "As -Built," "As -Constructed," or
"Record Drawing," the marking shall be stamped by an engineer or surveyor, as appropriate for the
improvements thereon, who is licensed to practice in California, and the plans shall be resubmitted to
the City Engineer.
13. Improvement Warranty. Subdivider hereby guarantees the Improvements to City for a period of one
(1) year, beginning on the date of final acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council, against
any defective work or labor done, or defective materials furnished, and shall repair or replace such
defective work or materials. If within the warranty period any work or improvement or part of any
work or improvement done,furnished, installed, constructed or caused to be done, furnished, installed
or constructed by Subdivider fails to fulfill any of the requirements of this Agreement or the
improvement plans and specifications referred to herein, Subdivider shall without delay and without
any cost to City, repair or replace or reconstruct any defective or otherwise unsatisfactory part or
parts of the work or structure. Should Subdivider fail to act promptly or in accordance with this
requirement, Subdivider hereby authorizes City, at City's sole option, to perform the work twenty (20)
days after mailing written notice of default to Subdivider and to Subidivider's Surety, and agrees to
pay the cost of such work by City. Should City determine that an urgency requires repairs or
replacements to be made before Subdivider can be notified, City may, in its sole discretion, make the
necessary repairs or replacement or perform the necessary work and Subdivider shall pay to City the
cost of such repairs
14. Release of Security. City shall retain and release securities in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3 of this agreement. Prior to the release of payment security, the City Engineer may require
Subdivider to provide a title report or other evidence sufficient to show claims of lien, if any, that may
affect the amount of payment security released.
15. City Right to Cure. If Subdivider fails to perform any obligation hereunder and such obligation has not
been performed, or commenced and diligently pursued, within sixty (60) days after written notice of
default from City, then City may perform the obligation, and Subdivider shall pay the entire cost of
such performance by City including costs of suit and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by City in
enforcing such obligation. In cases of emergency or compelling public interest, as determined by the
City Engineer, the requirement for written notice of default and/or the passage of sixty (60) days shall
be deemed waived and all other provisions of this Article shall remain in effect.
16. Jury to Public Improvements, Public Property or Public Utility Facilities. Subdivider shall replace or
have replaced, or repair or have repaired, as the case may be, all public improvements, public utilities
facilities and surveying or subdivision monuments which are destroyed or damaged as a result of any
work performed under this Agreement. Subdivider shall bear the entire cost of replacement or repairs
of any and all public or public utility property damaged or destroyed by reason of any work done
under this Agreement, whether such property is owned by the United States or any agency thereof, or
the State of California, or any agency or political subdivision thereof, or by City or any public or
private utility corporation or by any combination of such owners. Any repair or replacement shall be to
the satisfaction, and subject to the approval, of the City Engineer.
17. Indemnification.
a. Neither City nor any and all of its officials, employees and agents ("Indemnified Parties") shall be
liable for any injury to persons or property occasioned by reason of the acts or omissions of
Subdivider, its agents or employees in the performance of this Agreement. Subdivider further agrees
to protect and hold harmless Indemnified Parties form any and all claims, demands, causes of action,
liability or loss of any sort, including, but not limited to, attorney fees and litigation expenses, because
of, or arising out of, acts or omissions of Subdivider, its agents or employees in the performance of
this Agreement, including all claims, demands, causes of action, liability, or loss because of, or arising
out of, in whole or in part, the design of construction of the Improvements. This indemnification and
agreement to hold harmless shall extend to injuries to persons and damages or taking of property
resulting from the design or construction of said subdivision, and the public improvements as
provided herein, and in addition, to adjacent property owners as a consequence of the diversion of
waters from the design or construction of public drainage systems, streets and other public
improvements.

b. Acceptance by City of the Improvements shall not constitute an assumption by City of any
responsibility for any damage or taking covered by this paragraph. City shall not be responsible for
the design or construction of the subdivision or the improvements pursuant to the approved
Improvement Plans or map, regardless of any negligent action or inaction taken by City in approving
the plans or map, unless the particular improvement design was specifically required by City over
written objection by Subdivider submitted to the City Engineer before approval of the particular
improvement design, which objection indicated that the particular improvement design was
dangerous or defective and suggested an alternative safe and feasible design. Except as may be
provided above, City shall not be liable for any negligence, nonfeasance, misfeasance or
malfeasance in approving, reviewing, checking, or correcting any plans or specifications or in
approving, reviewing or inspecting any work or construction. Nothing contained in this paragraph is
intended to or shall be deemed to limit or waive any protections or immunities afforded by law to City
or any and all of its officials, employees and agents ("Indemnified Parties"), by virtue of city's approval
of the plan or design of the Improvements, including without limitation the protections and immunities
afforded by Government Code Section 830.6. After acceptance of the improvements, Subdivider shall
remain obligated to eliminate any defect in design or dangerous condition caused by the design or
construction defect; however, Subdivider shall not be responsible for routine maintenance. Provisions
of this paragraph shall remain in full force and effect for ten (10) years following the acceptance by
City of the Improvements. It is the intent of this paragraph that Subdivider shall be responsible for all
liability for design and construction of the Improvements installed or work done pursuant to this
Agreement and that city shall not be liable for any negligence, nonfeasance, misfeasance or
malfeasance in approving, reviewing, checking, or correcting any plans or specifications or in
approving, reviewing or inspecting any work or construction. The Improvement Security shall not be
required to cover the provisions of this paragraph.
18. No Modification of Conditions. This Agreement shall in no respect act to modify or amend any
provision of the Conditions of Approval. In the event that any requirement or condition of this
Agreement is inconsistent with or fails to include one or more provisions of the Conditions of
Approval, which document(s) is (are) incorporated herein by reference, the provisions in the
Conditions of Approval shall remain in effect and shall control.
19. Severability. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision or
provisions of this Agreement are unenforceable, all provisions not so held shall remain in full force
and effect.
20. Subdivider No Accent of City. Neither Subdivider nor any of Subdivider's agents, employees, or
contractors are or shall be considered to be agents of City in connection with the performance of
Subdivider's obligations under this Agreement.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: AUTHORIZE OVERNIGHT TRAVEL FOR THE PUBLIC WORKS CONSTRUCTION
MANAGER AND PUBLIC WORKS INSPECTOR TO ATTEND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
SYSTEMS SOFTWARE TRAINING, APRIL 20-21, 2016, IN APPLE VALLEY, CALIFORNIA
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize overnight travel for the Public Works Construction Manager and Public Works
Inspector to attend Geographic Information Systems Software Training, April 20-21,
2016, in Apple Valley, California.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
One City initiative is to enhance staff knowledge through continuous learning.
This free training provides an opportunity to gain knowledge of Geographic
Information Systems (GIS) software and map making techniques for various public
works projects.
FISCAL IMPACT
Estimated expenses are $700, which include travel, lodging, and meals. Funds are
available in the department's Travel and Training budget.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Southern California Association of Governments is offering a free introductory "hands
on" GIS class. Students will learn how to use ArcGIS 10.3x for ArcMap navigation, basic
and advanced queries, ArcCatalog navigation, map creation, map books, data creation,
and geocoding. This course is designed for users with little or no GIS skills and will
prepare staff for the upcoming free, intermediate and advanced courses offered locally.
ALTERNATIVES
The Council could deny this travel request; however, this would not allow the City to
develop in-house GIS capabilities nor would it position the City to take advantage of
more advanced local training.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On August 4, 2015, Council awarded a $420,350 contract to Golden Valley Construction for
Project No. 2014-13A located at 78275 Calle Tampico (Attachment 1). On August 19, 2015,
a Notice to Proceed was issued; work commended on September 1, 2015, and ended on
October 27, 2015. The project was deemed substantially complete on October 27, 2015.
However, the subcontractors and material suppliers filed several Stop Notices on the project,
which have taken several months for the contractor to satisfactorily address. The
construction effort is in compliance with the plans and specifications, and all of the
contractor's outstanding bills have now been paid.
Per project specifications, no liquidated damages or early completion incentives are
recommended.
Contract Change Order No.1 was issued for a contract quantity adjustment between the bid
quantities and the actual quantities installed, which resulted in a credit to the City.
ALTERNATIVES
Since the project has been constructed and reviewed for conformance to the plans and
specifications, and since all of the contractor's outstanding invoices have been paid, staff
does not recommend an alternative to the recommended action.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: April 5, 2016
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROPRIATE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDS, ACCEPT
THE CONSTRUCTION IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE MISCELLANEOUS PARKS AMERICANS WITH
DISABILITIES ACT IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, AND RATIFY PURCHASE OF PLAYGROUND
EQUIPMENT FROM DAVE BANG ASSOCIATES, INC. OF CALIFORNIA
RECOMMENDATION
A. Appropriate $6,524.25 of Community Development Block Grant funds;
B. Ratify Americans with Disabilities Act compliant playground equipment purchase for
Velasco, Eisenhower and Saguaro Parks from Dave Bang Associates, Inc. in the
amount of $140,226.40;
C. Accept the construction improvements of the Miscellaneous Parks Americans with
Disabilities Act Improvements project as 100 percent complete;
D. Authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion with the Office of the County
Recorder;
E. Authorize staff to release retention in the amount of $14,527, thirty-five days after
the Notice of Completion is recorded; and
F. Authorize use of remaining Quimby funds to install the playground equipment.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• The Miscellaneous Parks Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Improvements
project involves seven City parks and the Museum (Attachment 1). The project
entailed installing site furnishings, and reconstructing parking stalls and walkways.
• On December 15, 2015, Council approved the award of contract to Roadway
Engineering and Contracting, Inc. and the use of Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds to replace non -compliant ADA playground equipment for
Velasco, Eisenhower and Saguaro Parks with the Miscellaneous Parks ADA
Improvements Project.
• In March 2016, staff was notified an additional $6,524.25 CDBG funds was available
from the Vista Dunes Lighting Project. Staff obtained County approval to reprogram
the funds to the Miscellaneous Parks ADA Improvements Project for purchasing new
playground equipment.
109
Since Roadway Engineering does not have a specialty license for installing public
playground equipment, staff recommends accepting the ADA improvements as
complete and hiring a separate contractor to install the playground equipment
(Attachment 2).
FISCAL IMPACT
The Miscellaneous Parks ADA Improvements Project $627,550 budget contains $204,844 of
Quimby funds and $422,706 of CDBG funds. The appropriation would increase the CDBG
fund balance by 1.7 percent to $429,230.
The following is the accounting for this project:

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On December 15, 2015, Council awarded a contract in the amount of $268,048 to Roadway
Engineering and Contracting Inc., for Project No. 2013-12. The project entailed removal
and replacement of existing asphalt, concrete, sidewalks, benches, and drinking fountains
at the Museum and seven parks with ADA compliant improvements and furnishings. The
Notice to Proceed was issued on January 12, 2016, work commenced on January 19, 2016,
and work ended on March 22, 2016. The project was deemed substantially complete on
March 22, 2016, and no liquidated damages or early completion incentives are
recommended.
Contract Change Order No. 1 was issued for the additional removal and replacement of
existing sidewalk and asphalt, the installation of drinking fountain drywells, and a contract
quantity adjustment between the bid quantities and the actual quantities installed.
The project's plans, specifications and engineer's estimate did not include installation of
playground equipment, thus no specialty license was required. In February 2016, staff
purchased the playground equipment in order to meet the March 31, 2016 CDBG funding
deadline (expend these funds by then or lose the funds). The playground equipment was
scheduled for replacement in the 2016/17 CIP using City General Funds. A special license
is required to install playground equipment; a contractor will be retained who has this
license to install this equipment once the ADA improvements are accepted. Staff
110
recommends using the project's remaining Quimby funds to procure a licensed playground
contractor(s), as CDBG funds cannot be used for equipment installation.
ALTERNATIVES
Since this project is funded with CDBG funds that have certain time limitations and
restrictions on their use, and since the project has been constructed and reviewed for
conformance to the plans and specifications, staff does not recommend any alternatives.

City of La Quinta
CITY COUNCIL MEETING: April 5, 2016
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: DISCUSS THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LA QUINTA XPARK
RECOMMENDATION
Discuss the La Quinta XPark project in north La Quinta.
City Council approved exploring a state-of-the-art skate park and BMX facility
(XPark) in the 2015/16 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
In September 2015 the City distributed a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to
design, build, and operate the XPark.
The RFQ responses were submitted on January 4, 2016.Only two teams provided
qualified responses.
The XPark selection committee (Committee) ranked the Spohn Ranch Team as the
top respondent.
Quimby Funds, which are generated from developer fees, in the amount of $3.4 million
were approved in the 2015/16 CIP to develop the XPark. These fees can only be used for
capital costs associated with park and recreational facilities, and cannot be used for
maintenance and operations; staff analysis of other southern California skate parks
indicate that annual operating costs may be $100,000.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
There has been considerable discussion in the community about additional youth
recreation opportunities. The City currently has two small skate parks - La Quinta Park
and Fritz Burns Park - that are in need of refurbishment due to heavy usage. In 2015, a
group of residents approached the Council regarding building a larger, state-of-the-art
skate park. In reviewing possible locations, the Council found that City owned properties
located in the neighborhoods north of Highway 111 could accommodate a larger skate
park. Further, the City has Quimby Funds that were once reserved for a regional park that
could be used to build a skate park.
Staff posted an RFQ for the XPark on November 23, 2015. In addition, 50 RFQs were
distributed to skate park developers and name brand companies. The intention was to
ascertain if a private entity would lease/purchase a City site, and build and operate a
facility.
121
Spohn Ranch, Grindline, and California Skate Parks expressed interest; these firms are
among the top skate park development companies in the world. All three companies
contacted City staff with intent to submit Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) for the RFQ.
However, California Skate Parks was unable to meet the January 4, 2016, deadline.
After individual review of the two submittals (Spohn Ranch and Grindline) the Committee
met, reviewed, and ranked the SOQ's. Spohn Ranch was rated the top respondent based
upon their development team and operations experience.
Staff is currently meeting with Spohn Ranch to develop a project scope and identify
suitable locations in north La Quinta. There are two possible locations; La Quinta Park,
using the property reserved by the Coachella Valley Water District for a future well site
and La Quinta Housing Authority property located southeast of the Westward Ho/Dune
Palms Road intersection. During this phase, the City would retain Spohn Ranch to
evaluate these sites and prepare concept plans; this work would be performed for less
than $50,000, within the City Manager's contract authority.
Upon completion of the project scoping, staff will report back to the City Council regarding
the preferred site, design concepts, and contracting approach. One option entails a
design/build approach. The City employed this approach when the Senior Center was
expanded, refurbished and converted into the Wellness Center.
Staff will also be pursuing sponsorship opportunities. This would provide revenue to fund
operations and reduce City funding.

GROUP DESCRIPTION
SPOHN RANCH AT A GLANCE
Spohn Ranch began as a community,
anchored by Aaron Spohn's
backyard half -pipe, and grew into an
award -winning skatepark
design/build firm. A cornerstone of
action sports progression for over 20
years, Spohn Ranch's backyard roots
have spread globally, culminating in
hundreds of cutting -edge creations.
From permanent skateable
landscapes to innovative
installations for high -profile events,
Spohn Ranch has played an
invaluable role in the exponential
growth of action sports. In the private sector, Spohn Ranch became a household name by designing/building
courses for film, television and world -class action sports competitions. In the municipal world, Spohn Ranch
has consistently been a pioneering firm, most recently taking a lead role in transforming skateparks into
vibrant community spaces with architectural finesse and sculptural elements that double as visual focal points.
SPOHN RANCH — HISTORY
The roots of Spohn Ranch date back to the days of backyard ramp building in the late 1980's, but the company was
officially founded in 1992 and later incorporated in 1998.

"The McBride Skatepark in Long Beach, California is an excellent street -plaza design, with just enough transitions to make
it well-rounded. It has something for all skill levels, and is exactly the type of project, area, and advocacy that we want to
get involved with. It should be an example for other communities to follow."
- Tony Hawk, Professional Skateboarder & Founder of Tony Hawk Foundation
"In addition to being a pro skater for over 20 years, I am the creative director for the Dew Tour. The Dew Tour needed a
professional class competition bowl that would showcase the best of modern Vert and transition skateboarding. The
team at Spohn Ranch was able to take my ideas and deliver a finished product that was not only the world's first portable
bowl, but one of the best pieces of skate -able terrain ever built."
- Chris Miller, Professional Skateboarder
"From the initial group meeting with the local skaters, through conceptual/final design and construction, Spohn Ranch
brought their "A" game. Spohn Ranch's knowledge and experience in the design and construction of skatepark is beyond
words. I do not hesitate in recommending Spohn Ranch to design and construct your skatepark. Spohn Ranch's attitude
and passion in skateparks is so contagious that it makes everyone love the sport of skateboarding."
- Edward Balderrama, City of Alamogordo
"Trinity Works and the Boy Scouts of America selected Spohn Ranch for the Summit Bechtel Reserve because we expected
that we would need the full attention of the best team in the industry to design and build the world's largest skateboard
and BMX facility. After an exhaustive search of the world's top action sports companies, your firm was a clear choice due
to unique capabilities, experience and personal involvement of the owners.
Throughout the three years of work on the project, Spohn was consistently attentive, dedicated and professional. Beyond
the fact that you designed an incredible facility and completed construction in the most harsh conditions possible (on the
side of mountain, in the middle of winter, battered by two 100-year storms), Aaron Spohn and his team exceeded our
126
expectations in every regard by always personally answering our calls, working long hours, and doing whatever it took
to get the work done and get it done well.
Given the tight timeline that we were under during the course of this project, it was extremely impressive to be involved
with a firm that not only understood the importance and scope of the work that needed to be performed in this space,
but was also able to overcome so many obstacles with innovative and cost-efficient solutions. You demonstrated
patience and superior communication skills with the many stakeholders involved. Truly, you did the impossible when
you completed twenty-one different courses for full use at the Jamboree this summer. I can't wait to see what you do
next and enthusiastically recommend Spohn Ranch for any action sports project."
- Tom Wagner, Trinity Works, Inc.
"Spohn Ranch demonstrated again and again a passion for skating, a willingness to work with multiple players, follow
agency protocol and a commitment to make this BIG project run smoothly. I can say wholeheartedly we are
overwhelming pleased with the results and would recommend Spohn Ranch with no reservations."
- Angela Chambers, Board of Child Care
"Having the opportunity to work with Spohn Ranch was truly a dream relationship. From day one, we talked about a
vision of a grand skatepark that would be considered one of the premier facilities in North Central Florida and every which
way beyond. A class facility that would cater to young and old, boys and girls and beginners to the highly skilled. A venue
that could hold events and tournaments for all the community to enjoy, as well as for those from out of town.
With the excitement, dedication and love shown by Spohn Ranch, it's no wonder the facility turned out to be a gorgeous
skatepark. Night and day your team worked to make the City's dream skatepark a reality. As we've all heard time and
time again, the proof is in the pudding. It's by far the most amazing skatepark we could have possibly wished for."

SPOHN RANCH, INC. - ACTION SPORTS TERRAIN DESIGNER & BUILDER
Aaron Spohn — Spohn Ranch President & Founder
Role: Project Vision & Management
Experience: 40+years skateboarding, 20+years in skatepark industry
Aaron is the embodiment of the entrepreneurial spirit. When he used a carpentry background to start Spohn Ranch in the
early '90's, he had no back-up plan — he put everything he had behind his passion for action sports. That passion
culminated in a backyard half -pipe that not only gave birth to a community, but eventually an award -winning skatepark
design/build firm. After Aaron helped launch skateparks into the mainstream when he partnered with ESPN to develop
the X-Games, Spohn Ranch's backyard roots spread globally in the form of hundreds of cutting -edge creations.
From permanent skateable landscapes to innovative installations for high -profile events, Aaron and Spohn Ranch have
played an invaluable role in the exponential growth and development of action sports. Hailed by insiders as a pioneer of
the modern municipal skatepark, Aaron has also spent considerable effort promoting the industry as a whole and sharing
his extensive knowledge.
Featured expert on Spike TV's "Playbook 360" dedicated to skatepark design/construction (2014)
Consultant for Atlanta Olympics tribute to action sports (1996)
Educational speaker at Global Skateboarding Summit in Istanbul, Turkey (2015)
Educational speaker at ASLA, NRPA & various State Park/Rec Conferences (2000-present)
Founding member of ASTM sub -committee that established skatepark safety guidelines (2002-2006)
The heart of Spohn Ranch for over 20 years, Aaron will be our team's primary visionary and project manager. He will be
the main point of contact for City staff and our A/E team, shepherding the project through pre -construction stages,
coordinating work and delegating tasks to Spohn Ranch's deep roster of support staff.
Charlie Wilkins — Spohn Ranch Skatepark Designer
Role: Lead Designer & Draftsman for action sports terrain
Experience: 15+years as professional skateboarder, 10+years in skatepark design and construction
Born and raised in Massachusetts, Charlie became a professional skateboarder in 1996 and helped pioneer the Boston
skateboarding scene. While he gained fame with magazine photo spreads and video parts, his passion for Mass
skateboarding transcended way beyond flip tricks and grinds — he spent considerable effort organizing events,
participating in the design and construction of municipal skatepark projects and he was a regular instructor at the Rye
Airfield indoor skateboarding camp.
After making the transition to the West Coast in 2011, Charlie connected with Spohn Ranch through our event work for
the Mountain Dew Tour. He had honed his AutoCAD skills as Alli Sports & NBC's lead designer since the Dew Tour's
inception in 2005 — a role in which he designed dozens of world -class event courses for our industry's premiere athletes.
Charlie's CAD expertise and ability to work with tight spaces and timelines made him a perfect fit for Spohn Ranch and
he's since enjoyed a seamless transition into our design department.
In addition to a full-time position as one of Spohn Ranch's lead designers, Charlie continues a 15+ year career as a highly -
respected professional skateboarder. Charlie also maintains a well-rounded perspective as head judge for World Cup
Skateboarding — one of our industry's sanctioning bodies for professional competitions.

Mark Bradford — Spohn Ranch COO & Co -Owner
Role: Construction Superintendent for action sports terrain
Experience: 20+ years in skatepark industry, ACI-certified shotcrete nozzleman
In the fields of municipal skatepark and professional action sports competition construction, Mark Bradford is the
most respected and in -demand construction foreman. He has spent his life eating and breathing the world of
specialty construction for wheeled sports, developing an unparalleled breadth of experience. As the primary leader
of all of Spohn Ranch's major builds, Mark is often on the road over 250 days per year — flying from critical shotcrete
placement to Mountain Dew Tour arena set-up to supervising coping fabrication at Spohn Ranch's shop. He is
Spohn Ranch's Superman.
Certified by the American Concrete Institute and American Shotcrete Association, Mark has completed projects in
11 countries, including Japan, Brazil and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. As Co -Owner of Spohn Ranch, Mark has the
authority and responsibility to make sure that every park is perfect. He calls the shots and holds both sub-
contractors and Spohn Ranch's veteran crew to his industry -defining standards.
As the site information and user input begin to roll in, we waste no time in looping Mark into design discussions. By
tapping into Mark's years of in -the -field expertise early on in the process, we foster a holistic approach and set the
stage for a unified and seamless transition from design to construction.
Kirsten Dermer — Spohn Ranch CEO/CFO
Role: Administrative
Experience: 20+ years in skatepark industry, 2-time President of Los Angeles Chapter of Entrepreneurs Organization
Kirsten is Southern California born and raised. While attending Venice High in the early'90s she and her brother
Mark befriended their new neighbor Aaron Spohn, joining him in his relentless pursuit of skating and building ramps
at his house. It wasn't long before that house transformed into a community dubbed "Spohn Ranch". And with
innate ambition and drive, it wasn't long before Kirsten transformed from one of Aaron's first employees into the
CEO/CFO that would help Spohn Ranch evolve from a small family business into an award -winning, nation-wide
design/build firm. The counterweight to Aaron's free -spirit, Kirsten steered the ship through good times and bad,
always keeping the company on course for success.
Intimately involved in the action sports industry for 20+ years, the breadth of Kirsten's experience is vast. In addition
to earning a bachelor's degree in environmental science from UCLA, she has developed expertise in every facet of
skatepark design, construction and operations — with a focus on executing all financial, contractual and insurance -
related matters.
Kirsten has also twice served as President of the Los Angeles Chapter of the Entrepreneurs Organization, an
internationally renowned association of successful business owners. Through this affiliation, she is able to interact
with many of the world's top minds on a regular basis, leveraging this knowledge of business best practices to every
project Spohn Ranch undertakes.
Kirsten is truly the glue that holds the company together. While under her leadership, Spohn Ranch has earned a
number of awards and industry recognition, including being named to Inc. Magazine's list of 5,000 fastest -growing
private companies 5 years in a row — climbing the ranks every year.
For this project, Kirsten will oversee all financial, legal and administrative matters, ensuring our design/build team is
freed up to do what they do best. This includes review and execution of contracts, insurance certificates, cash -flow
management, payroll, invoicing and sub -contractor documentation.

137
PROJECT APPROACH
CORNERS ARE MEANT TO BE CARVED, NOT CUT
PHASE 1 - DEVELOPMENT (ESTIMATED TIMELINE: 4-12 MONTHS)
Task 1.1 Project Kick -Off Meeting — Key staff from the City and Spohn Ranch's team will be introduced to one another via
an in -person meeting. We will conduct a site tour, review the project goals and refine the scope of work and schedule.
We will compile and distribute a contact sheet with contact information for all persons from Spohn Ranch's team and the
City who will be involved with the project.
We'll also launch an online portal for the project accessible by project team members and City staff. The online site will
provide a server for all project files, as well as have a project schedule tracking progress and identifying key milestones -
ensuring everyone is on the same page and has access to the same information.
Task 1.2 Entitlement — Spohn Ranch will collaborate with the City, County/State agencies and our development
consultant, The Pinyon Group, to facilitate entitlement of the land for the purpose of developing a state-of-the-art action
sports facility. The specific requirements and applications will be refined as we move through the process, but are likely to
include zoning, variances, permits, air quality analysis, noise analysis, traffic study, cultural resources study, biological
resources study, CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act), EIR (Environmental Impact Report), etc.
The process will be broken down into the following phases:
1.2a — Due Diligence Process
1.2b — Pre -Entitlement Process
1.2c — Entitlement Process
Task 1.3 Commission Site Studies — During the kick-off meeting, Spohn Ranch and City staff will take stock of existing site
data, studies and any other information pertinent to the project and project site.
Spohn Ranch will tap into our team of local sub -consultants to commission additional site studies vital to both the
entitlement and design processes.
Site survey in AutoCAD format indicating spot elevations, topography, benchmark and/or control point locations,
drain inlets and their invert elevations, location of existing structures/features such as trees, asphalt/concrete
pathways, walls, curbs, light poles, sign posts, fire hydrants, manhole covers, fences, gates, irrigation system
components, visible utilities, known buried utilities, known easements, etc.
Geotechnical investigation analyzing sub -surface conditions. Report will discuss water table depth, soil
composition and provide recommendations for site preparation, drainage, and concrete construction.
We hold a strong belief that a thorough analysis of the site conditions at the beginning of the project is vital to a
successful end result. Developing an in-depth understanding of our canvas ensures responsible design work and helps us
avoid surprises down the road that cost both time and money.
Task 1.4 Launch Website & Social Media Channels — Spohn Ranch will purchase an online domain for the project, build
out the website and create associated social media channels. A robust online presence will not help the community stay
up-to-date with the project, it will also prove valuable during the public input process where traditional in -person
meetings can be intimidating for youth and difficult for busy adults to attend.
138
PHASE 2 - SCHEMATIC DESIGN & DESIGN DEVELOPMENT (ESTIMATED TIMELINE: 3 MONTHS)
Task 2.1 Public Design Workshop #1— Spohn Ranch will host a public meeting to give a "Skateparks 101" presentation
and gather preliminary input from the community. After years of educational lectures at parks and recreation
conferences, Spohn Ranch's staff have become experts in public speaking and know how to connect with an audience —
whether it's a young skateboarder or an elderly community member with NIMBY concerns.
The first meeting will be structured as follows:
Project Introduction
Spohn Ranch Background
Skatepark Evolution & Typology
Analysis of Regional Skateparks (Pros/Cons)
Community Input
o Surveys
O Feature/terrain ranking
o Small group sketching & 3D model exploration
Task 2.2 Schematic Design — Incorporating feedback from the first workshop (and Facebook page), Spohn Ranch will
prepare three alternate schematic designs. The schematic designs will address sections of terrain, circulation, access and
identify rough elevations, but not detail the dimensions of every single obstacle.
Task 2.3 Public Design Workshop #2 — Spohn Ranch will return to La Quinta to present the alternate schematic designs
and solicit feedback. The presentation will begin with a video fly -through that navigates through the designs and
highlights the various features. Spohn Ranch will narrate the video explaining the terrain and what factors influenced the
designs. The designs will also be showcased on 24" x 36" poster boards with high -end 3D renderings and
labeled/dimensioned drawings. The second workshop will follow a more organic, free -flowing format, with Spohn Ranch
leading a discussion about the schematic designs and seeking input from the skateboarding community. 2D line drawings
of the designs will be available for participants to sketch out suggested revisions.
Prior to the public workshop, the Spohn Ranch design team will attend a closed meeting with City staff to discuss the
designs and present a detailed construction cost estimate highlighting opportunities for in -kind material/service
donations from community.
The alternate schematic designs will also be posted to the website and Facebook group following the meeting for review
by stakeholders unable to attend the workshop.
Task 2.4 Design Development —The Spohn Ranch team will incorporate feedback from the second design workshop and
Facebook group in order to finalize design development. With access, elevations and circulation established, this step will
allow us to begin focusing on some of the finer details of the preferred schematic design - such as color pallets and the
exact dimensions of specific obstacles.
PHASE 3 - CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS (ESTIMATED TIMELINE: 2-3 MONTHS)
Task 3.1 60% Construction Documents —The Spohn Ranch team will prepare a 60% Construction Documents submittal —
beginning to detail the complete build out of the action sports facility. 60% submittal will include the following:
Title Sheet Erosion & Sediment Control Plan
3D Perspective Improvement Plan
Demolition Plan Materials Plan
139
Color Plan
Layout Plan
Jointing Plan
Grading & Drainage Plan
Landscaping Plan
Irrigation Plan
Lighting Plan
Horizontal Control Plan
Architectural Plans — Interior, Exterior, etc.

Task 3.2 60% Construction Documents Review — City staff and various County/State agencies will review the 60%

PHASE-4 - CONSTRUCTION (ESTIMATED TIMELINE: 6-10 MONTHS)
Task 4.1 Pre -Construction Kick Off Meeting — Spohn Ranch's construction team, including Spohn Ranch COO Mark
Bradford and sub -contractor Doug Wall Construction, will meet with City staff on -site to provide an overview of the
process and discuss any outstanding opportunities/constraints prior to starting construction.
Prior to beginning construction, we will submit a detailed construction schedule, as well as our proposed Quality Control
(QC) Master Plan for all testing of materials and compaction during the build. We will also notify utility companies of on -
site work getting underway.
During the build, there will be daily communication between Mark and the project manager, Aaron Spohn. They will
resolve any problem areas and review the project schedule and budget. Mark will also lead weekly on -site meetings with
City staff to provide an update on construction progress.
Task 4.2 Site Preparation — Spohn Ranch and Doug Wall Construction will prepare the site for construction, with the first
step being the establishment of a safe and organized job site. This includes installing construction fencing, sediment
control fencing, establishing an entrance for vehicles and heavy equipment and coordinating temporary amenities like
restrooms, dumpster, etc.
With the construction footprint established, Spohn Ranch and Doug Wall Construction will lead the team clearing the site,
installing drainage and grading the terrain.
140
Task 4.3 Forming, Rebar & Steel Edging/Coping for Action Sports Terrain — With the earthwork substantially complete,
Mark will lead the Spohn Ranch team in preparing the action sports elements/terrain for concrete. Spohn Ranch is the
only skatepark builder that uses state-of-the-art CNC technology to cut all screeds and framing lumber, ensuring the exact
radii, angles and dimensions as specified in the construction drawings.
Task 4.4 Place Shotcrete & Concrete for Action Sports Terrain — Mark Bradford, an ACI-certified shotcrete nozzleman,
will lead the Spohn Ranch team in shooting and placing concrete for the action sports elements/terrain. A concrete mix
design will be refined as we develop a better understanding of the site's soil conditions and collaborate with a local plant.
Task 4.5 Building, Parking Lot & Road Construction — While Mark and Spohn Ranch's action sports specialists are
progressing the skate and BMX components, Doug Wall Construction will simultaneously be executing construction of
non -specialty improvements such as the retail store, restroom, parking lot and access roads.
Task 4.6 Landscaping & Site Amenities — With construction of the action sports components and surrounding
infrastructure substantially complete, Doug Wall Construction and additional local contractors will complete the finishing
touches including landscaping and site amenities such as lighting fixtures, shade sails and fencing.
Task 4.7 Construction Closeout — Upon completion of construction, Spohn Ranch will present the City with warranty
documentation, as -built drawings, an owner's manual and an acceptance letter to complete the construction closeout.
Mark will also lead an educational training session with the City and our operations partner, the Action Park Alliance —
discussing inspection schedules and maintenance routines.
Spohn Ranch offers a 2-year materials and workmanship warranty for cast -in -place concrete and 15-year warranty for
pre -cast concrete elements. The warranty is effective upon the date of substantial completion or first use by Client.
PHASE-5 - OPERATIONS (ESTIMATED TIMELINE: ONGOING
Task 5.1 Local Hiring & Training— With construction complete, Spohn Ranch will begin transitioning the project to our
operations partner — Mark Laue and the Action Park Alliance. A key first step for Mark will be hiring and training local
staff, many of whom will be respected leaders within the Coachella Valley skate/BMX scene.
Task 5.2 Grand Opening Celebration — Spohn Ranch and the APA will both tap into longstanding connections within the
professional skateboarding industry to create an unforgettable grand opening celebration.
Skatepark demonstration by professional skateboarders
Autograph signing and photo session
Skateboarding instruction and tips for beginner skateboarders
"Product Toss" — giveaway of skateboarding equipment and apparel for the community such as helmets, decks,
trucks, wheels, shirts, hats, etc.
Task 5.3 Ongoing Operations —The Action Park Alliance will be actively involved in the project throughout the planning
process to ensure the facility is optimally designed for operations. This includes a focus on access points to the facility,
lines of sight from the pro shop to all areas of the park for ease of monitoring and responding to any potential injuries.
APA will then be contracted to professionally manage the park, with a focus on programming and developing youth within
the community. Management includes full-time staff to monitor all activities in the park, real-time tracking of all park
users including attendance history and waivers, tracking and dealing with all injuries, safety gear rentals, retail operations
at the pro shop, liability insurance to cover all operations, and a robust calendar of special events throughout the year.

TOWN PARK
SKATEPARK
In the fall of 2014, Levi's Skateboarding teamed up artist, teacher and
activist Keith "K-Dub" Williams and the community of West Oakland to
transform and rebuild Town Park Skate Park. Grindline was invited to
be the General Contractor based on our reputation for being highly
skilled, highly ethical and highly motivated to work with a team of
volunteers, donations and in kind services to make this project happen.
Partnering with the Oakland Parks & Recreation Foundation and the
City of Oakland, Grindline provided the knowledge of how to bring
together all the invested parties and maximize the project funding being
provided by Levi's. The result is a skatepark worth twice its cost for a
deserving community. Defremery Park has long been a hub of activity in
Oakland and now has a legendary skatepark to be enjoyed by the next
generations of skate enthusiasts.

Grindline was selected as the design firm to renovate the legendary
Hilltop Skatepark (aka "the Dish") in San Francisco. The existing skatepark
was built in the early 80's yet the design is dated and the park is in
disrepair. The project goal was to develop a concept capturing the
heritage of the existing park and provide an updated design. The skate
spot had to integrate with other planned park improvements. Grindline
conducted a collaborative community workshop with the community
and the non profit organization Trust for Public Land and came up with 2
preferred concepts to be used for grant and funding applications. Each
concept was created with different construction budget scenarios so final
design can proceed based on the success of fund raising. Post funding,
the design will be finalized and construction will commence in 2015.

Grindline was selected by the project owner for both design and
construction based on our extensive resume as well as recommendations
from the local skateboarding community. The skatepark was to be
implemented in an existing active use park. Baseball fields, bocci ball
courts, a playground, and a parking lot surrounded the skatepark site.
The adjacent parking lot also hosted a farmers market every Friday
morning, making job site security and safety key factors for successful
completion. Other site constraints included a water table with high
fluctuation and poorly compacted soils that had to removed and
compacted back into place. The City of St. Helena also has an entire
committee dedicated to protecting the existing trees throughout town,
and held Grindline to these strict requirements on the trees adjacent
to the site. Grindline worked with several local vendors throughout the
project who offered in kind donations and Grindline was able to reduce
the contract by $120,000, Integral concrete color was used throughout
the park.

The City of Oceanside selected Grindline's multi -disciplinary team for the
design of three skateparks at strategic locations previously determined
by the City staff. The nature of this project required Grindline and it's
team to research demographics as well as physical site conditions for
each site, and determine which type of skatepark would be the most
successful at each designated space. The City had preselected a
skatepark committee which consisted of a local skate shop employees,
several skateboard company owners, other skate industry personnel, as
well as the Tony Hawk Foundation's Director, Miki Vukovich. Grindline and
it's team worked closely with the committee and the city throughout
conceptual design and construction document submittals. Two of the
three parks have since been constructed and are receiving high praise
from the skateboarding community.
During the construction phase on the Bishop Skatepark a last minute
challenge arose. Due to maintenance issues, the city had to change a
centrally located mandated green space to standard flatwork. Grindline
stepped forward and suggested making this area a centerpiece of the
park and designed a "volcano" feature which brought the skate ability of
the park to a new level. The "volcano" has since become the focal point
of the park.

Neighborhood kids and skateboarders from around the city flock to
Potrero del Sol for its beautifully designed skate park - San Francisco's
largest - which opened in 2008. Grassy lawns provide space for picnicking
and ball -playing; other features include a playground, a performance
space, and, nearby, a community garden.
Grindline's analysis of the project site identified two major physical
constraints: steep sloping topography and unfavorable soil conditions.
The park is located in a seismic "D" zone, meaning special structural
considerations were required and implemented. The community meetings
garnered large turnouts with attendees voicing wide differences of
opinions in regard to the skateable elements that should be in the park.
Grindline brokered consensus among end users to come up with a
design working though the site limiations while maintaining the design the
stakeholders requested.
During construction Grindline performed construction support services
inlcuding reviews and reporting, site inspections and final walk through.
As a testament to Grindline's timeless design philosophy, the park has
been in operation since 2007 and is still a major skateboarding attraction
within the City of San Francisco. Thrasher Magazine wrote, "San Francisco
finally got a good skatepark... Grindline came down and did it up proper."

The Pitcher Park Foundation, led by Mary Pitcher, was created in memory
of Mary's two sons lost their lives in a tragic accident. They were active,
engaged young men and the foundation set out to bring a state-of-the-
art skatepark to the deserving Carnegie community. Grindline offered
support at the very beginning to secure a site for the project. When an
initial location fell through, the Borough of Carnegie stepped up and
offered a local Park. The site has a gentle slope nestled among mature
trees creating an ideal setting, however, this slope presented a challenge
during the design process. A shelf was created running across the hillside
to accommodate the skatepark and grading had to avoid disturbing any
of the mature trees. Also, the drainage required onsite retention so as not
to overload the city's storm water system downstream in the event of a
major storm event. The skatepark committee and local skating community
desired a signature feature that would make the skatepark stand out
in the region. Grindline delivered a 20' fullpipe, the only full pipe within
a 500 mile radius. Grindline assisted the Pitcher Park Foundation in fund
raising and soliciting in -kind donations by providing 3D concepts as well
as detailed cost estimates and material take offs throughout the design
process. As material donations came in, Grindline could value engineer
the skatepark to stretch every available dollar. The result was a $600,000
budget funded with almost 60% from local donors and businesses.
The story of the Pitcher Park Foundation quickly drew attention from
important figures in skateboarding because of Mary's tenacity and the
amazing gift she was giving to the community. The Tony Hawk Foundation
awarded a significant grant towards the project and another private
foundation made a large donation to make this park a reality. Tony
Hawk with his Birdhouse Crew and the Grindline Team made personal
appearances in Carnegie for a special christening and the red carpet
event made headlines across the nation.

Spring Park is the largest public skatepark in the Western Hemisphere.
The City of Houston requested to push the limits and create a facility that
would not only attract skateboarders internationally, but would also be
able to accommodate professional televised contest events.
This 76,000 sq. ft. destination has 6 bowls of different skill levels, 2 snake
runs, and a large street area. The entire facility is connected by a
"transportainment" system that allow users to skate through the park to
reach the different areas. Some of the unique features include a texas
shaped bowl with a fullpipe in the middle of it, a ditch style snake run,
and the use of integral colored concrete throughout the park.
Skaters, Facebookers and Bloggers around the world are considering
Spring Park as the most epic skatepark ever constructed. Along with
Jamail Skatepark and others, the City of Houston is quickly becoming
known as the skateboarders mecca of the southeast.

As a centerpiece within metropolitan Philadelphia, Paine's Park
demonstrates the premier level of artistry in skatepark design while
integrating skateboarding into a dense urban setting. Since the project
was first conceptualized in 2002, it has become a model for a new
kind of dialogue between skateboarding, landscape architecture,
and city planning. Set along the banks of the Schuylkill River, adjacent
to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Paine's Park innovative design
accommodates skateboarding as an important energizing force behind
the life and movement of public space.
Throughout the design process, Grindline provided design of skateable
elements, review of overall architectural skateablity and value
engineering of skateable surfaces. During construction, Grindline's
signature smooth concrete finish, intricate brick bank stamping and
stainless steel edging have already generated acclaim for Paine's Park
as the highest level of concrete craftsmanship in skatepark construction
to date.

PROJECT START UP N
Our principal design philosophy is that every community and project site is unique, requiring a skatepark
design tailored to its end user and appropriately blended with existing surroundings. Through the selection
of custom materials, landscape detailing and the use of green spaces in and around the parks, skateparks
are not only athletic facilities but are social gathering places for the entire community. A thorough site
analysis takes place alongside a review of topographical surveys and geotechnical reports.
SITE PLANNING
Our Design Team conducts site visits and public outreach to evaluate potential sites and site planning.
Specific opportunities & constraints are discussed including:
• Connections to adjacent uses and planned perimeter improvements
• Proper drainage and storm water management
Safety awareness and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design standard principles
Opportunities to add historic/thematic elements unique the local community. Grindline has been on
the forefront of developing techniques to incorporate color, texture and skate -able art into its projects -
improving the skatepark experience for its users as well as its surrounding community.
PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT
Grindline's design brief is best developed through engaging active park users and the surrounding
community. We educate the community about the design process, establish open lines of communication
and guide the ultimate vision for a skatepark. Public involvement is a key forum to address community
members' varied ideas and ideals about skatepark design. Grindline gathers endorsements in a logical
order and work to identifv and faces on common anals to bridae awns between stakeholder amens.
In developing a skatepark design, we illustrate the concepts of the design and include site plans,
developing a skatepark design, we illustrate the concepts of the design and include site plans, 3D
renderings, elevations and sections for the owner to review. When a final conceptual design is agreed on,
preliminary costs are estimated based on the concept and needed site amenities. Conceptual Designs
illustrate our skatepark vision to key stakeholders and the community in interactive, full color presentations.
All of our concrete is specified at a minimum of 4000 psi (our standard mix typically breaks at approximately
5500 psi at 28 days) and fully reinforced with #3 and #4 Rebar. All grindable edges are treated with steel
edging or maintenance free pool coping to withstand the constant beating taken from skateboarders.
CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATES & DRAWINGS
Grindline is more than a skatepark design firm. We are a full service skatepark contractor that has
constructed over 250 skatepark projects. Our extensive knowledge of actual skatepark construction allows
us to provide more precise cost estimates than our competition. We have constructed projects across the
nation and understanding clearly the large variance in material pricing and prevailing wage labor costs
in each region of the United States. Grindline creates all construction documents in-house and our team
conducts a 90% Drawing Review to ensure construction challenges are raised before ground is broken.
Our team's experience with the Public Works design process across the nation makes us versatile in
formatting project technical specifications to match the needs and requirements of the project Owner.

Grindline has worked with state funded projects, projects funded by private resources and a combination
of both. We have structured budgets around in -kind donations from community supporters, local material
suppliers and subcontractors. When funding presents a challenge, Grindline plays a key role in the mission to
deliver a quality skatepark. Good planning and creative design can solve funding shortfalls and our phasing
plans bridges funding cycles.
Grindline has helped coordinate fund raising and in -kind donations for many clients in the following ways:
• We provide detailed material lists with quantities and product specifications to simplifies the process for
committees as they inventory donations.
• We assist with the "in kind" campaign by getting the word out to local businesses of what the project
needs and why.
• We supply clients with sample donation forms so vendors can track the donation on their end while the
client has a written inventory of the goods.

Grindline's Budgets are developed to preserve as much of the budget as possible for construction. We work
diligently to keep engineering costs contained by developing all construction documents in house. This
makes us very efficient and experienced in designing within a limited budget.
YOUR LOCAL PARTNER IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Our unique position as the principal designer and prime contractor
of our skatepark design -build firm allows us to offer the greatest
amount of local procurement opportunities on public projects.
We can take a proactive position on sourcing services, materials
and labor to local vendors since we can allocate the budget and
services under one Project Director. Grindline has measured and
tracked the amount of money redistributed back into the local
economies where our projects are built. $.64 of every dollar spent
on a Grindline cast -in -place concrete skatepark re-enters the
local economy through the purchase of local materials, local food
and lodging, state and local tax revenue and local equipment
rental as well as through wages and jobs by hiring local labor and
subcontractors.

Since we specialize in cast in place concrete construction, our construction methods incorporate highly
skilled shot-crete, flatwork, masonry and carpentry techniques specific to building skatepark architecture.
Standard concrete contractors cannot replicate the level of expertise needed to construct custom
skatepark design. As a full service design/build contractor exclusively engaged in skatepark development,
our design experience provides us the ability to accurately control budgets and value engineer our projects
as we progress through the construction schedule. Simply put, you just can't beat the creative possibilities of
a custom, cast in place, concrete skatepark from Grindline.
CONSTRUCTION OVERSIGHT
As an Owner's Representative, we offer bid assistance, conduct field inspections, review shop drawings and
progress reporting as well as provide punch list approval and final acceptance recommendations. With us,
your park will be built on time and on budget.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION
As a contractor specializing in concrete construction, we
are highly aware of the effects from the growing amount
of hardscape on the environment. On every job, Grindline
incorporates green construction techniques such as:
• Recycled concrete for sub base materials
• Flyash in our concrete and shotcrete mixes
• Onsite storm water management
• Recycling of construction materials such as formwork

Conceptual Designs illustrate our skatepark philosophy to key stakeholders and the community in interactive,
full color presentations of the custom skate features and any other components of the project. Our 3d
software allows us to build the 3d model right on top of the existing survey. This allows us to visualize the
skatepark on the site and how it functions with other adjacent elements as we refine the design from
preliminary concepts into permit level drawings. It also allows for accurate material take -offs throughout
the design. We utilize our skatepark construction experience by doing a thorough analysis of the site, local
material availability and labor costs to produce a preliminary cost estimate. This is refined throughout the
design process to value engineer the design and maximize the project budget.
It is our understanding that the City and Community desires a skate/BMX facility that incorporates classic
concrete swimming pool and urban inspired concrete plaza obstacles with design elements that are uniquely
"La Quinta" and "Coachella Valley". When looking at the local landscape, the surrounding mountains,
specifically the Santa Rosa Mountain range dominate the view. The skatepark could reflect this through the
use of colors, textures, or even a skateable mountain feature. The majority of architecture in La Quinta has a
Spanish influence so any site furnishings (benches, shade structures, etc.) could use similar language to tie the
park into the community. Custom pool tiles could also be used to reflect La Quinta's heritage.
The facility should be designed to accommodate events and programming such as lessons, camps,
after school programs, birthday parties, and special events such as skate jams / competitions. In order to
accommodate this, viewing and spectating areas should be incorporated into the design. The community
might want to consider a more extensive structure with facilities that would be able to house programming
such as skate camps or birthday parties. Since it is across from the High School it seems like there would be
the potential for programming through the High School. Electricity should be considered for a PA system or
amplified music for events. As part of this lighting should be considered as well as the evenings during the
summer will be a great time to use the facility.
This just one possibility for the La Quinta
Xpark. We look forward to working with your
community to create a project that truly
mts the needs of La Quinta's end users

CONCRETE SKATEPARK DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION
Key Projects:
Kiwanis Skatepark, Lewiston, ID - As Principal Project Manager for the
Design and Construction of the 14,000 sq. ft. Lewiston Skatepark, Matt was
responsible for managing the design team as well as working closely with
the City to maximize project funding. Through the use of labor performed
by City personnel and local, in -kind, material donations, Matt was able
to maximize the project construction budget and overall Skatepark
footprint. Matt continued this coordination throughout the construction
phase by orchestrating sequencing between the Grindline crew, City of
Lewiston work crews, subcontractors, and material suppliers. In the end,
the City of Lewiston was able to add an additional bowl due to the value
engineering led by Grindline. The addition was easily implemented as it
o of Landscape was considered during the design phase and included in the construction
documents as an add alternate.
Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark, Houston, TX - Mr. Fluegge served as the
Principal Project Manager for Design and Construction. Tasks included
coordination with multiple disciplines of the design team, landscape
architects, civil and structural engineers, In house management of
conceptual design and construction documents and preparation of
preliminary and final cost estimates, development and implementation
of solutions to resolve issues of budget constraints, underground utilities,
unsuitable soil conditions, review and approval of final as -built drawings
including drainage system and steel placement, and management of
the $800,000 construction project through certificate of occupancy from
City of Houston Building Department.
Judkins Park Skatepark, Seattle, WA - Matt Served as Principal Project
Manager for both design and construction of the Judkins Skatepark
project in Seattle WA. Mr. Fluegge worked with an in house Seattle
Parks Landscape Archtiect and Project Manager throughout the design
and construction to ensure a cohesive process throughout the entire
project. This facility also consisted of further coordination between 4
public agencies: Seattle Parks & Recreation, Department of Planning and
Development, Seattle Department of transportation, and Washington
State Department of Transportation. The final design implemented
strict on -site drainage infiltration requirements while playing off of the
"Mountains to Sound" theme of the adjacent 1-90 Freeway corridor.

Principal, Lead Designer
CONCRETE SKATEPARK DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION
Skatepark Philosophy: Skateboarders themselves inspire the design that
provides the outlet to develop their skills and talents.
Key Projects:
Steel Bridge Skatepark, Portland, OR - Mr. Shapiro served as the Skatepark
Designer on a multi-discplinary team tasked with a development plan for
the Steel Bridge Skatepark in Portland, OR. The goal of this project was to
create a unique urban landscape, able to serve as both a regional attractor
and more community -based gathering space which accommodates both
skaters and non -skating observers. Responsibilities included integrating
the flow of the street skating and transitional bowls into the site's existing
topography of buttresses and swales, coordination with the rest of the design
team, and presenting information to the stakeholder groups involved in
the project. The result is a true urban downtown park, primarily focused on
integration of components and creating a safe, aesthetically pleasing and
sustainable hybrid of architecture, landscape, infrastructure, and public art.
Spring Park, Houston, TX - Mr. Shapiro served as the Lead Designer for this
project, which is the largest Skatepark in North America. With 78,000 sq ft
of skateable concrete, expectations were high for this project. There was
also large turnout at the community meetings with differences of opinions
with regards to the skateable elements that should be in the park. Through
thoughtful facilitation of the public input process and careful design, Mr.
Shapiro was able to find consensus among end users to come up with a
design that met the bar that a project of this nature required.
Jefferson Skatepark, Seattle, WA - The selected site for the Jefferson
Skatepark was constrained on all side by existing park elements and require
careful attention to grading and avoidance of underground utilities to
integrate the skatepark with it's surroundings. As the Project Manager
and Lead Designer on this project, Mr. Shapiro was able to find consensus
among end users to come up with a design that fit the park within these
constraints, while maintaining a design that the stakeholders requested.
During construction, Mr. Shapiro conducted a pre -construction meeting and
numerous site visits to supervise construction as well as providing clarification
on RFI's to ensure the success of the park.

City of La Quinta
CITY COUNCIL MEETING: April 5, 2016
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE- ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES
RECOMMENDATION
Discuss 2016/17 economic development strategies.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• On July 21, 2015, Council directed staff to implement the strategies outlined in the
2015 Economic Development Strategic Plan (Plan); these strategies encompassed
business attraction, preserving quality of life, addressing blighting conditions, and
collaborating on regional economic development initiatives.
• One initiative entailed conducting a community survey, which occurred in February
2016; 110 responses were received.
On March 9, 2016, the Economic Development Subcommittee (Subcommittee)
provided feedback on the 2015/16 accomplishments and initial input for the
2016/17 Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT - None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The 2015/16 Plan was the City's reentry into economic development with a broad set of
goals and limited investment. The accomplishments are listed in Attachment 1 and
summarized below:
Business Attraction
• Conducted market research tailored to retail attraction efforts (i.e. demographics,
traffic counts, market potential, entitlements, and matching sites with retailer
parameters);
• Developed informational pieces that included a community overview and market
characteristics for specific retail sites;
• Attended International Council of Shopping Centers in San Diego; proactively set
11 appointments with potential leads that led to two site tours; and
• Engaged local real estate brokerages regarding aligning potential retailer leads
with La Quinta retail properties.
173
Preserve Quality of Life
Secured funding and planning two community clean up events for Fall 2016;
• Held the first annual "Block Party" during the Careerbuilder Challenge; and
• Collaborated with the BMW Driving School to co-sponsor an upcoming community
event.
Regional Economic Development
Provided initial funding and staff support for the East Valley Coalition.
Community Engagement
The Plan included an element to engage the community as a means of validating the
vision and initial efforts. An online survey (Attachment 2) was launched in February 2016;
residents and business owners were informed of this survey through the GEM, social
media and the City's website;110 responses were received. The survey provided general
data on the respondents, and opinions regarding the City's economic development
principles and quality of life aspects. The responses are summarized below:
• 85 percent described themselves as full time La Quinta residents;
• 51 percent were unaware of the 2015 Plan;
• 80 percent either agreed or strongly agreed with the guiding principles;
• 70 percent either agreed or strongly agreed that the City should streamline
processes, actively reduce commercial vacancy rates, and provide financial
incentives for businesses to locate in La Quinta;
• 55 percent either agreed or strongly agreed with the current SilverRock
development plan; however, 25 percent were neutral, and 20 percent disagreed or
strongly disagreed with the development plan;
• 83 percent were familiar with the proposed CV Link project and 52 percent
indicated that they either support or strongly support the project; and
• 66 percent agreed that the City should partner with business to add jobs.
The survey provides solid data regarding the community perspective's on what the City
should be doing regarding economic development.
174
Going Forward
The Subcommittee's input and the survey results illustrate three main focus areas for the
coming fiscal year:1) continue/expand business attraction efforts; 2) develop a vision for
future industry that creates jobs; and 3) improve overall program awareness. One of the
bigger challenges is the ability (or lack thereof) to influence market conditions; this is
typically achieved by having a vested stake in the desired real estate or ability to provide
capital. The City does have select properties in the Highway 111 corridor, the Village and
at SilverRock, and has been actively pursuing development opportunities for these assets.
However, the City lacks the financial resources to invest in incentives and a broader
community marketing effort.
Listed below are questions for which staff is seeking Council input. The answers will assist
in preparing the 2016/17 Economic Development Plan and Strategies.
• Should the City continue business attraction efforts in the retail and hospitality
sectors and if so, what would be the appropriate level of annual investment?
• What is the metric(s) to be utilized in measuring success?
• Is there a desire to pursue an industry that is not currently in La Quinta or in the
region?
• Does the Council envision a specific function or success from the East Valley
Coalition?
• If the City were to influence the market through real estate or capital investment,
what would be the desired return on investment?
• Are there specific investments or programming that should or should not be
considered?
ALTERNATIVES
As this is an informational item, staff does not have any alternatives.

Don't close schools. Build our community don't tear it down. Closing John Adams is a shame on the community.
Worried about crime in the Cove.
I support the proposed condo and business development of Old Town. I oppose the gas station and other-developent at Washington and
50th.
I would like to see more vendors at Sunday farmers' market, and would love it to continue in summer.
Don't know about your use of 'sure' but I don't mind sharing. The City of La Quinta needs to put a new face on Olde Town. It resembles an
amateur approach to a problem many downtown areas have faced. Is it broken? Not yet. Some have successfully developed their
downtown and others have not and of course their downtown's no longer exist. This city must either do something about it now or get use
to losing the traffic that brings in much needed support for the existing retailers and other commerce. Once the retailers leave, the traffic
begins to dwindle causing other businesses to close or re -locate. I recommend closing Avenida Bermudas from Tampico to La Fonda to
normal vehicle traffic. Also close Desert Club from Tampico to La Fonda creating an Olde Town Square. Foot traffic and bicycle traffic would
be allowed of course and some kind of transit system to get shoppers from their cars to the shops and back to their cars. (An electric trolley
or 3 wheeled bicycle drawn carts or even 6 passenger electric carts.) Missing is a candy store or confectioner's, curio shop like an All Things
La Quinta Shoppe and a point of interest [archway, tower, etc] that everyone wants their picture taken with are just a couple of ideas. A
stage area of contemporary design that folks can use for a variety of events (i.e. weddings, small concerts, etc). Introduce more pavers to
replace asphalt. Allow more sidewalk vendors which would allow fledgling businesses to start without a lot of overhead/fixed expenses.
Their permits could be renewable every 6 mos but preferably on an annual basis. Without large vehicles there would no longer be a need
for raised sidewalks within the Square.
The city needs to resolve the lack of landscape maintenance for north La Quinta and the constant problems at La Quinta park due to
loitering by high school truants. in addition, Silver Rock seems to be going nowhere. It may be time to cut bait and focus on other
opportunities. The Starter Bros shopping center is shabby and needs an update.
I don't want to see mainstream Big business here in the Old Town area. That is what makes use so unique and a great place to live!

we don't need raves or similar events here. I would be in favor of the CV Link if it was done on a smaller scale, to be used for walkers and
bikers. I am against providing for golf carts and similar vehicles.
In this tight money environment the city should not be spending money on parties such as block parties or other social events for "party
animals". Mayor and council seem to spend too much time at events more time in attracting long term businesses who employ full time
professionals. Although they don't help revenue they would attract full time employees who spend money. Thus sales tax revenue.
La Quinta is unique and it should stay that way. We don't need more gas stations or quick pick up stores such as 7-Eleven's . Those type of
businesses are best left on Highway 111. We need to maintain our town and our residential areas through code enforcement. Don't screw
up a good thing by adding more national stores that have no real connection to our community. Greed is not a good thing. Safety and
emergency services Could always be better!
Need to keep attracting business and residence that live here full-time
It only took 2 traffic tickets to convince me to move. You know the good guys from the bad guys, give the tourist, locals and harmless old
folks a break.
As you may or may not know the existing Indio Polo Alliance has decided to expand to include subdivisions in La Quinta to join them.
Therefore, we will be asking the cities to do whatever they can do legally and politically when the City of Indio reviews the changes to
Golden Voice's request to alter their Use Permit to increase the number of attendees in 2017. More specifically, to obtain a TRULY REAL &
VERIFIABLE EIR as it relates to resonating (vibrating) sound levels and reducing the number of hours of the festival thus precluding the Polo
Alliance from filing a class action suit in order for us to have peace and quiet enjoyment of our property, The City Council has A DUTY to
protect or security and quiet enjoyment and quite frankly in my opinion has not lived up to its duty. The alliance will more than likely grow
to more than 15,000 residents in the coming year and we will do whatever we need to do to see to it that those three items are seriously
addressed. Let me repeat them: 1. Reduce the sound levels especially the booming (vibrating) base SUBSTANTIALLY, and not allow vulgar
language be blasted all throughout the surrounding neighborhoods. 2. Enhance security by stationing more police and cars in strategic
locations at entrances to our subdivisions. 3. Reduce the number of hours of the festival to 11 pm. All three of the aforementioned items
are being addressed in other cities across the nation and unfortunately sometimes in the courts and in most cases the people are winning
these suits. As our alliance grows stronger we hope our city fathers seriously pay attention to our needs; otherwise, they will leave us no
alternative but to respond at the ballot box with candidates that will. April is one of the best weather months in the Valley and we cannot
sit outside and enjoy our yards or invite guests from out of town during almost the entire month. And as you know, GV wants another
festival in October, the best weather month in the Fall. We have nothing against the free marketplace and wish GV all the success in the
world BUT NOT AT OUR EXPENSE! We hope you will genuinely listen to out friendly pleas and do something to help bring about these
changes before this situation becomes the type of struggle we all want to avoid. Thank you for listening,

Don't know enough of the demographics and economic
47 profile of LQ residences to provide an informed opinion No
rather than a knee jerk recommendation.
I would love to see a more imaginative development in our economic growth plan... to help keep the "gem of the desert" feel of La Quinta.
We need to develop the up and coming commercial areas to create more of a "destination" feel, not only for tourist and part-time traffic...
but for full-time residents to have a "wanna be, wanna do, wanna participate" in the "destination" they are lucky enough to live in. Has
anybody on the City Staff ever visited Downtown Disney? Or Downtown Dallas? Or any other'Downtown' city area that is vibrant with the
hustle, bustle of pedestrian, street traffic? If we could capture that 'downtown' aura for every new development in La Quinta, and keep an
ongoing participation relationship between all of the development in the valley, we would create an exciting new personality to our "gem
of the desert" destination. We need more indoor/outdoor, walk about, need to go there, overall environments. Especially during the
summer months. How about creating a shuttle service that has an old fashioned 'depot' center and services all of the valley with quirky,
street car designs to the shuttle vehicles. (This type of transportation would make it fun to travel throughout the valley... or at least,
throughout La Quinta.) The city needs to encourage and recruit more imaginative developers and city planners. If we want this desert area
to grow and become a world class destination, we need to think outside of the box. What we don't need is more of the same thing we
already have. (Which is way too much of the strip mall, franchise mentality, mile after mile... from one end of the valley to the other.)
Let's get imaginative and have some fun with new development!
We are unique and attract tourists. Look at Carmel, San Diego, Seaport Village, etc. We have golf, tennis, hiking. Lots of business selling
related items, showing films of people doing those sports, or watching them while enjoying a beer. Sitting outside in the shade sipping on a
lemonade, maybe watching the ducks swimming in a pond. A promenade area where people can walk around or sit and people watch.
Professionals, doctors, lawyers, accountants, all would eat and use nearby facilities.
I strongly support the filling of vacant buildings before approving new building. Is it not possible to offer interested businesses incentives to
occupy empty buildings?
I think having the extension of old town with the condos is a great idea. Repurpose the old Ralph's center and move the current stores to
old town.
Cut down red tape and taxes for businesses and then stay out of their business. Government creates the problem and then wants to spend
even more money trying to fix it. God help us.
Reject the proposed truck -stop type development at 50th and Washington. Try to attract a replacement grocery store for the closed
Ralphs.

It has never been clear to me how all these cities (LQ IW PD CC PS) all fit together to mutually support and promote business across the
entire valley... As islands each is not big enough to stand on its own with a major theme although IW does have tennis and Indio the
Coachella Fest. But these are episodic and very short term... To wit, we probably spend as much $$ in the other cities as in LQ. PS appears
to have a clear view of who it wants to attract and how... Not sure how the "gem of the desert" slogan is leveraged to carve out a similar PS.
type model that is pretty clear and unambiguous... Is it golfing? A resort city focusing alternative life style to PS? What?? I remember last
year that someone mentioned to one of the candidates running for mayor that LQ lacks a compelling commercial "go to" destination as PD
with its El Peseo & River; IW with tennis center; PS with its restaurant row (my words)... Not sure what is or will be the compelling "go to"
feature/center?
Costs and regulation for business in LaQuinta need to be controlled and more incentives offered for new businesses and relocating
businesses. I myself would consider moving to LaQuinta and moving my business if the overhead and tax structure was more conducive to
me. I love the area and the summer heat would not deter me from the move, the financial hurdles of moving my business would.
Roads getting worse .... also there are no plan in place to enforce vehicle laws such as speeding, running stop signs etc. especially in the
COVE
Is this question even a sentence? Anyway, its a concern that your survey didn't even include a question on controlling government
expenses. Try that. The amount of City regulation here is out of control. Eliminate half the people involved in issuing permits and
otherwise strangling development. Stop the SilverRock project... if you sell our tee times to developers, people will move out, I know I'll
think about leaving. And if you need to raise taxes just step up and do it rather than hide behind a citizen's group for air cover. Here's the
thing ... the City can't really attract business directly. What they can do is promote residential development by making it easier to build here
and marketing moving here to Pacific NW, Canada, etc. With development comes business... if you don't get in their way so much. Main
feedback is kill that stupid SilverRock project. The residents that want it are non -golfers who think its easy money but it will result in golfers
moving out and a decline in real estate values. You're taking the gem of the gem and selling it and us out. Or you could build a second golf
course, but I'm sure you'll say you don't have the money. Its not that complicated. Give people a reason to live here, make it easy to live
here, make it easy for business and your problem will be solved. Eliminate the hassle factor. You are the hassle factor. Good luck.
There are plenty of services and businesses around LQ, it should not be a priority. Maintaining the beauty and quaintness of the community
is LQ's attraction, don't change the atmosphere. Thank you.

Regional mall available on public access TV. The city should explore other options than the riverside sheriff dept. There is virtually no crime , the
majority of homes are in gated communities, why the need for so many police? La Quinta's budget for policing is out of balance. Less police
or a more aggressive approach in negotiations with the county are needed. Possible outreach to other cities to combine resources. The
percentage increase for police services is not acceptable Traffic traffic traffic. Is your major problem area.
NOT gas station! something to go in Ralphs location
No City government should govern city municipal matters only. They should not be running golf courses or hotels or other commercial
enterprise. Just do the job of running the city and you should be able to stay within budget.

These are serious times in La Quinta, and there are serious issues needing our attention. We all need to insist upon a basic standard of
truth from our elected officials and community leaders. We must cultivate a commitment to truth to show our young people and children
that it has to start here with us. La Quinta is in the midst of needing a long range planning process. This is needed to guide our City over the
next decade. Our landscape is dynamic and rapidly changing. In order to maintain La Quinta's legacy of excellence and tradition, we must
analyze our current position and plan for the future. The strength of this process depends on the engagement of all members of the
community
I keep hearing that the city would like to draw a younger demographic but as long as it continues to cater to a conservative older crowd
that's all we will get. I like my city but we are mostly just a suburban "bedroom" community rather than a growing vibrant city. For
example: The theme is the "gem of the desert". Seriously? There is nothing remotely attractive about that motto. All the more vibrant
businesses are hugging 111 or going to other cities. Instead of spending huge amounts of city money on safety and protection for all those
people in country clubs, let's put it into services for the majority of year-round residents who live here.
We are pleased with the management of our City. We appreciate the mayor's visibility and active support of La Quinta businesses. Use
social media more to inform and celebrate all aspects of La Quinta, especially on Facebook and NextDoor. More social events in Old Town -
especially for adults. Thank you, John Polak Laguna de la Paz
Let's keep la quinta quaint and not over populated
The SilverRock expansion screws all the full time residents that own and pay taxes in favor of tax revenue from the newly built hotels and
homes on City land. The officials at Silverrock says it will be very hard for residents to get a Tee Time. THE DEVELOPER SHOULD BE FORCED
TO BUILD THE 2ND COURSE for he use of the hotels. Leave the original course to the residents with their Resident card. Presently the
average time to play a round is over 5 % hours. What will it be like in the future if we can even get a Tee time. I pay real estate taxes on 4
homes, what do they pay. We are get screwed!!!!!!!
I don't think the city should financially support businesses or make deals with developers. I believe that is what got the city in trouble with
the landscaping around Del Oro and other La Quinta development communities. I think it is poor management to make deals with
developers then after a few years try and put the cost of landscaping on the home owners. It is also a VERY BAD idea to think about
increasing the sales tax. As a resident, if the sales tax was increased I would no longer shop in La Quinta. I would shop in the surrounding
cities that do not have higher sales tax. I work in Rancho Mirage so I could shop there or Palm Desert when I am on the way home. Put
more taxes on the people who rent their homes - it is a nuisance and they should pay the city more than 15% of the rent they charge. The
city should also work with LQHS to make the tennis courts/track and swimming pool accessible to the public for a small fee. Our taxes paid
for the HS so why not let us use it for fitness. Not everyone can afford a membership to the local gyms. Thank you.

This is unrelated. But the corner Eisenhower and Montezuma , across from the park and continuing Up Montezuma is heavily traveled by
pedestrians of all ages and often in the dark. A side walk connecting Montezuma to bear creek is desperately needed for safety. I know
that bear creek has a sidewalk connecting to Calle Tampico, but sadly, that is not where most of the foot traffic walks.
Our city has an overabudance of huge vacant buildings that were once retail spaces, yet new buildings continue to be built. Doesn't make
sense to us... We would like gallery/studio space in La Quinta (we are artists). But cost is prohibitive. If cost was more reasonable, La Quinta
could attract more artists, which in turn, attract more visitors.
children need something to do, somewhere to go, besides skate parks, community center, something do not forget about our children our
future.
The questions do not provide a solution as to what extent the City will go to "Continue to develop economic base" or "Support the
development of the La Quinta Village commercial district" so it is hard to answer the questions without being aware of what is being
sacrificed or being dealt with behind closed doors that could be a conflict of interest.
Very much opposed to CV Link - don't know a soul that will use it! Upkeep would be expensive and not sure of safety to the users. Hard to
patrol!
For business development, would be great to attract ethnically diverse restaurant businesses as this is something that is lacking in the
Coachella Valley, like Persian food, Peruvian, Cuban, GEN Korean BBQ (this chain is very popular in OC & LA areas), more Sushi restaurants
and Shabu Shabu Japanese style. We also desperately need an international food market that carries a variety of ethnically diverse foods. I
We have very few fast food chains in the Cove area for people know a lot of residents would appreciate another mall besides Palm Desert Mall with big retailers like Nordstrom. Other retail stores that
working & needing grab quick bite: need more drive-thru fast attract young adults would be good as well like Forever2l, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Francesca's, Daiso. We also need more activity options
food chains in this area. And need more stores for Young Adult like: Bowling Alley, Skating rink, K-1 Indoor Go Kart Racing, Dave & Busters. Also, we don't have a David's Bridal in the area. As for City
age group like H&M, Forever2l, etc. events, the 19th Hole Block Party was great & being a young adult myself the EDM DJ's were really a great attraction. For future City events
it would be great to have big Food Truck event (Koji's food truck in LA is awesome, The Grilled Cheese Truck). Other ideas: Free concerts in
the park, Family Festival with resource booths, Family BBQ & Chili cook off, various cultural events besides Italian Festival & Black History
Month like Lunar Festival, Greek Festival, Dia de los Muertos, Octoberfest, Mariachi Festival with Ballet Folklorico dancers, etc.

Great job.
Make more free programs for lower income senior citizens.
Development of the La Quinta Village and lower cove area is important. Focusing that effort primarily in the Old Town development is
unfair. There is so much more to the Village than that one development, yet the majority of public events are held there. The businesses
that aren't willing or able to pay the astronomical rent in Old Town are not benefiting. I would love to see a regular nighttime street fair,
especially in summer. The community enjoys those events and are willing to drive all the way to Palm Springs. Let's encourage patrons to
explore the rest of the Village by holding events in other parts, such as the Community Park on Montezuma, Calle Estado, etc.
Ensure commercial rent is manageable. The old Ralph's center is practically empty is it due to high rent?

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• In July 2015, Council directed staff to review the City's development code (Code)
and identify measures to modernize and improve the development review process.
• A Project Action Team (PAT) and an Ad -hoc Committee (Committee) were formed
to solicit community input for the Development Code Tune Up and recommend
improvements to the development review process.
• The proposed Municipal Code amendments will implement the Committee's final
recommendations to amend Titles 2 (Administration Personnel), 7 (Historic
Preservation), Title 8 (Buildings and Construction), Title 9 (Zoning), and 13
(Subdivision Regulations).
• On March 2016, the Planning Commission adopted Planning Resolution No. 2016-
005 recommending approval of the Development Code Tune Up amendments.
FISCAL IMPACT - None.
BACKGROUNDIANALYSIS
In July 2015, Council directed staff to proceed with a Development Code Tune Up and
identify ways to streamline the review of development applications. The code establishes
the development approval procedures, and identifies standards and permitted land uses.
`m
It also identifies the required level of approvals by the Design and Development Director,
Planning Commission, and/or City Council.
A Project Action Team (PAT) was formed comprised of representatives from the Building,
Development Services (Public Works), and Planning Divisions to inventory current
permitting procedures and define key issues and concerns relevant to improving the
permitting process. A Committee consisting of two Councilmembers, two Planning
Commissioners, and one Architectural and Landscaping Review Board Member was also
established to identify issues, and provide feedback and recommendations.
The objective was to allow greater flexibility and reduce the time and costs associated
with the development review process. The review focused on the following Code sections:
• Title 2 (Administration and Personnel)
• Title 7 (Historic Preservation)
• Title 8 (Buildings and Construction)
• Title 9 (Zoning), and
• Title 13 (Subdivision Regulations)
Title 2 Administration and Personnel, Chapter 2.35 Historic Preservation Commission,
Title 7 Historic Preservation
The Development Code Tune Up effort included a review of the City's Boards and
Commissions to identify ways to streamline their roles in the development review
process. The PAT and Committee recommend the elimination of the Historic Preservation
Commission (HPC), as its role to monitor and protect cultural resources is largely
accomplished by the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and new
state tribal consultation laws (AB 52 and SB 18) that did not exist when the HPC was
established. The procedures to protect historic resources in Title 7 (Historic Preservation)
will remain in place. The proposed changes to Titles 2 and 7 are outlined in detail in
Attachments 1 and 2.
Staff presented the recommendation to eliminate the HPC at the March 1, 2016 HPC
meeting for discussion and comment. Commissioners expressed concern with the
recommended action and stated that the elimination of the HPC would have minimal
impact on the streamlining of the development review process. Further, Commissioners
expressed the desire to maintain the City's Certified Local Government (CLG) status
through the National Park Service for the program benefits, such as historic preservation
grants. Some Commissioners expressed interest in alternatives that may preserve the
HPC, which may include consolidation with an existing commission and/or minimizing the
role of the HPC in the development review process. Also expressed was the possibility of
refocusing on the designation of historic landmarks and districts, updating the historic
resource survey, and promoting historic resource preservation in the City. The meeting
minutes for the HPC meeting of March 1, 2016 are included as Attachment 3.
Commissioner Peggy Redmon of the HPC submitted a letter to staff expressing opposition
to the elimination of the HPC (Attachment 4).
`9n
Title 8 Buildings and Construction
• Remove the City's landscape review function from single-family home sites when
turf reduction is proposed.
Title 9 Zoning
Substantial changes were proposed to the Permitted Uses Table, Review Authority Table,
and the General Permitting of Title 9. The proposed code changes modify the Review
Authority Table and assign more responsibility for project decisions at the administrative
level; this should result in significant time and money savings for developers. New
streamlined development review processes are recommended that include the following:
• Modify 61 use categories in the Permitted Uses Table to allow a faster
development review process and reduced fees.
• Create an administrative level site development permit for smaller development
projects to reduce current processing times and fees.
• Create a new Planned Unit Development permit option for residential projects to
allow greater flexibility from the residential development standards. This is an
alternative to the preparation of a Specific Plan, which requires longer processing
times and costly plan preparation.
• Modify the minor adjustment process to allow up to three deviations of up to 10
percent of a numerical development standard such as a building setback, lot size,
lot coverage or building height. The current process only allows for one deviation
of a numerical development standard. For example, a property owner with plans
for new home construction may request approval from the Design and
Development Director of a minor adjustment to allow for a maximum 10 percent
deviation from the minimum rear yard setback, front yard setback and maximum
building coverage standards required by the La Quinta Municipal Code.
Title 13 Subdivision Regulations
Eliminate the Director's Hearing for Tentative Parcel Maps
Allow for longer terms and flexibility in the granting of time extensions for
tentative maps
Create new procedures for revisions to tentative maps
The proposed changes to Titles 8, 9, and 13 are outlined in detail in Attachments 5
through 10 along with their respective recommendations analysis.
Due Process
The Committee also identified the need to modify the development review due process
procedures. The proposed code changes modify the Review Authority Table and assign
more project decision authority at the administrative level. The current process does not
include a reporting mechanism for staff level decisions to the City Council, Planning
`m
Commission or the general public, that facilitate an effective appeal and call-up review
process. Therefore, new due procedures have been developed, which include:
• Clearly defined call-up review procedures
• Weekly reporting of staff level decisions for permits and development projects to
the Planning Commission, City Council, and the general public
It is anticipated that the Development Code Tune Up will facilitate new development and
attract new business. As the City approaches full build -out, there will be significant
limitations to new development that will require greater development code flexibility that
allows creative development approaches that are compatible with the City's expectations
for high quality development.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may elect not to take up these Ordinances and not amend Titles 2, 7, 8, 9 and
13 of the Municipal Code. Howerver, staff does not recommend this alternative given the
amendments are intended to allow greater flexibility and reduce the time and costs
associated with the development review process.

Chapter 9.120 SPECIAL PURPOSE PERMITTED USES
9.120.010 Development permits required.
Table 9-8 of this chapter specifies whether a use or structure is permitted within a
zoning district. However, in most cases development to establish a land use requires
approval of a site development permit and/or other permits as set forth in Chapter
9.210. (Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A) (part), 1996)
9.120.020 Table of permitted uses.
Table 9-8, Permitted Uses in Special Purpose Districts, following, specifies those uses
and structures which are permitted within each special purpose district. The letters in
the columns beneath the district designations mean the following:
1. "P": Permitted as a principal use within the district.
2. "A": Permitted only if accessory to the principal use on the site.
3. "C": Permitted as a principal or accessory use if a conditional use permit is
approved.
4. "T": Permitted on a temporary basis if a temporary use permit is approved.
5. "X": Prohibited in the district.

Chapter 9.200 GENERAL PERMITTING PROCEDURES
9.200.010 Development review process.
A. Purpose. Chapters 9.200 through 9.260 set forth the procedures for
processing development review applications and the criteria and conditions
necessary so that an appropriate decision may be made by the city on each
such application.
B. Applicable State Law. It is intended that the provisions of this chapter shall be
consistent and in full compliance with Section 65920 et seq., and other
applicable sections of the State Government Code and that such provisions
shall be so construed.
C. Persons Who May File Applications. An application for a permit or other
action under Chapters 9.200 through 9.260 may be submitted only by a
property owner of the subject property, by an agent with notarized written
authorization from the property owner, or by a public agency.
D. Application Filing. Applications shall be filed with the planning department on
forms prescribed by the director, together with: (1) all maps, plans,
documents and other materials required by the director, and (2) all required
fees per Chapter 9.260. The director shall provide the necessary forms plus
written filing instructions specifying all materials and fees required to any
requesting person at no charge.
E. Legal Actions. Any action or proceeding to challenge, attack, review, set
aside, void or annul any discretionary action described in this chapter shall be
governed by the applicable provisions of the State Planning and Zoning Law
(Government Code Section 65000 et seq.). (Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)
9.200.020 Authority.
A. Decision -Making Authority. Table 9-23, following, specifies the decision -
making authority for each of the various actions described in this code. An
"A," "PH" or "CC" means that the official or body at the top of the column has
decision -making authority for the application. An "A" means that the
application is reviewed administratively without a public hearing. A "PH"
means that a public hearing is required before action is taken. An "R(PH)"
means that the planning commission is responsible for holding a public
hearing and forwarding a recommendation to the city council. A "CC" means
that the city council is responsible for considering the site development permit
as a consent calendar item.

***Subject to the provisions of 9.210.010.
****Also see Title 13, Subdivisions.
B. Administrative Action. Actions to be taken administratively per Table 9-23
preceding, are those which are relatively minor in nature and with relatively
little potential for adverse impacts on the surrounding community or the
environment. A public hearing or public notification is not required for
administrative actions, although the director may notify residents or property
owners near the subject property if the director determines on a case -by -case
basis that the public interest would be served by such notification.
C. Public Hearings. Public hearings shall be noticed and held in accordance with
Section 9.200.110 for those applications shown in Table 9-23 as requiring a
hearing. (Ord. 425 § 1, 2006: Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)

9.200.030 Combined applications.
At the discretion of the director, applications for different types of actions may be
combined and processed concurrently so long as all applicable processing
requirements and all required findings are satisfied. The following rules shall apply to
such combined applications:
A. When an application requiring a public hearing is combined with one not
requiring a public hearing, the combined application shall require a public
hearing.
B. The final decision on the combined application shall be made by the highest
applicable decision -making authority pursuant to Table 9-23 preceding. For
example, the decision on an application combining a zone change and a
conditional use permit shall be made by the city council.
C. The applicable fee(s) shall be collected in accordance with Chapter 9.260.
(Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)
9.200.040 General permit provisions.
A. Applicability of Permits to Property. All rights granted by the approval of a
development review permit remain with the affected property and all
entitlements, conditions and requirements of a discretionary permit are
passed on to the new property owner when there is a change of ownership.
B. Enforceability of Permit Provisions. All conditions, requirements and
standards specified either in writing or graphically as part of any approval
granted by authority of this chapter shall have the same force and effect as
this zoning code. Any land use or development established as a result of an
approval which is not in compliance with all such conditions, requirements or
standards shall be in violation of this chapter, and the enforcement provisions
of the municipal code shall be applicable. (Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)
9.200.050 Permit applications.
A. Acceptance of Applications as Complete. Within thirty days of receipt of a

9.200.060 Action by decision -making authority.
A. Possible Actions. The decision -making authority may take one of the
following actions on each application:
1. Approval. Simple approval of an application means that no conditions or
requirements other than those specified by the application are imposed.
After the action's effective date defined in subsection C of this section and
after approval of any required plan revisions per subsection D of this
section, the proposed land use or development may be established in
compliance with all applicable regulations and the approved project plans
and specifications.
2. Approval with Conditions. Any application may be approved subject to
compliance with conditions. Conditions may require dedication of land,
installation of improvements, the posting of financial security to guarantee
performance, design modifications or other conditions necessary to
achieve the objectives of the general plan and this zoning code. After the
action's effective date as defined in subsection C of this section and after
approval of any required plan revisions per subsection D of this section,
the proposed land use or development may be established in compliance
with all applicable regulations, the approved project plans and
specifications, and the requirements of the conditions of approval.
3. Denial. When a conditional use permit or site development permit
application has been denied, an application for the same or a similar use
on the same property shall not thereafter be accepted for a period of one
year from the date of final determination, except that the decision -making
authority may specify that this time limitation shall not apply. This time
limitation on resubmittal of applications is not applicable to other
discretionary permits.
4. Withdrawal. With the concurrence of or at the request of the applicant, any
application may be withdrawn. When an application is withdrawn, such
action is effective immediately and is not subject to appeal. Thereafter,
such application shall be null and void and the property shall have the
same status as if no application had been filed.
B. Action in Writing. The decision on each application, including any required
findings and any other reasons that serve to explain the determination plus all
conditions of approval shall be in writing. A copy of the written determination
shall be forwarded to the applicant following the date of final determination
and shall be made available at cost to any person requesting such a copy.

C. Effective Date. The determination of the decision -making authority by
resolution shall be effective immediately unless appealed. Ordinances shall
be effective 30 days after second reading unless adopted as an urgency or
emergency ordinance as shall be effective as authorized under law.
D. Tie Votes.
1. Development Review Applications. If action on a development review
application results in a tie vote by the decision -making authority, such vote
shall constitute a lost motion.
2. Appeals. When all members of a decision -making authority are present, a
tie vote on whether to grant an appeal shall be considered a denial of the
appeal. The original action shall then stand unless the decision -making
authority takes other action to further consider the matter. If a tie vote
occurs when less than all members of the decision -making authority are
present, the matter shall automatically be continued to the next regular
meeting unless otherwise ordered by the decision -making authority.
E. Use of More Restrictive Standards. In conjunction with approval of a
development review permit, the decision -making authority may impose more
restrictive site development standards than set forth in this code in order to
make the required findings for each type of permit as specified in Chapter
9.210. (Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)
9.200.070 Time limits on processing applications.
A. Development review applications shall be processed within the time limits
specified in Chapter 4.5 of the State Planning and Zoning Law (Government
Code Section 65920 et seq.). Time periods specified in Section 9.200.120
regarding actions on appeals shall be in addition to the preceding
Government Code time limits.
B. Incomplete Application Sunset Provisions. All applications which remain
incomplete or inactive for a minimum six-month period shall have a written
thirty -day warning notification forwarded to the applicant by means of certified
mail or similar method. If no action is taken by the applicant regarding the
application within thirty days thereafter, the application shall automatically be
withdrawn and closed. (Ord. 466 § 1, 2009; Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)

1. In the case of a development review permit where ministerial permits are
required, such permits have been issued.
2. In the case of a development review permit where no ministerial permits
are required, the use authorized by the permit has been established. In
circumstances where a certificate of occupancy is required, such
certificate has been issued.
C. Expiration. A development review permit shall expire and be of no further
force or effect if:
1. The permit is not established within twenty-four months of the permits
effective date or such other time period designated by the permit approval,
by state law or by this code; or

is discontinued or abandoned for a period of one year.
D. Time Extensions.
1. Upon application before expiration of the period of validity, the original
decision -making authority may grant an extension to the period of validity
for up to two years if it finds that such an extension is justified by the
circumstances of the project. The filing of an application for extension

extension by the decision -making authority unless the application has
been deemed incomplete and inactive pursuant to Section 9.200.070(B).
Development Review Permits can be extended no more than twice.
2. Projects not requiring a time extension may be constructed in accordance
with the requirements and standards in effect at the time of permit

9.200.090 Modifications by applicant.
A. Plan Modifications by Applicant. Site development permit plans modified at
the initiative of the applicant from those approved by the decision -making
authority may be submitted to the director.
B. Procedures. If the director determines that the proposed plan modification is
minor, will not result in a significant change in the project approved by the
decision -making authority, and complies with the spirit and intent of the
original approving action, the director may approve the modified plan without
further compliance with this section. If the director determines that the plan
modification may result in a significant change in the project, the director shall
refer the change to the original decision -making authority.
C. Criteria. Modifications by applicant shall permit minor changes to an existing
or approved site development permit. The following criteria constitute minor
changes that shall be deemed eligible for modification by applicant
consideration:
1. Increases in building square footage not to exceed ten percent from the
original approval that have been determined to not result in a significant
architectural, aesthetic, or visual impact to the existing project and require
additional parking;
2. Changes, additions, or adjustments to windows, window locations, or
window treatments;
3. Changes, substitutions, or adjustments to building materials, roofing
materials, screening materials, lighting fixtures, or paving;

significant effect on the overall aesthetic or architectural style of the
building;
6. Changes, substitutions, or adjustments to the approved color palette or
material colors.
7. Changes in residential model design.
D. Ineligibility. Modifications by applicant which have been determined by the
director, planning commission, or city council to exceed these standards or
constitute a significant change shall require application and approval of an
amended site development permit. (Ord. 466 § 1, 2009; Ord. 284 § 1 (Exh.

9.200.120 Appeals.
A. Appealable Decisions. Any development review action by the director may be
appealed to the planning commission and any development review action by
the planning commission may be appealed to the city council in compliance
with the provisions of this section. For purposes of this section, the "board of
appeals" shall be the planning commission for decisions appealed to the
planning commission and shall be the city council for decisions appealed to
the city council.
B. Persons Who May Appeal. Any interested person may appeal a decision of
the director or the planning commission regarding the action taken on a
development review permit application for a development project upon
submittal of the required documents and information and the payment of the
required fee.
C. Call -Up Review. The board of appeals (either the planning commission or city
council), on its own motion adopted by a majority vote of its total membership,
may elect to call up and review any decision of the director or the planning
commission regarding the action taken on a development review permit
application. The planning commission's or city council's call-up review shall
be processed in accordance with this section
D. Appeal Procedures.
1. Time Limits for Filing Appeals.
a. All appeals, except call-up reviews pursuant to Subdivision C, shall
be filed with the director within fifteen calendar days of the date on which
the decision being appealed was rendered. If the fifteenth day is a
nonworking day for the city, the appeal period shall be extended to include
the next city working day. No appeal shall be accepted after the appeal
period has expired.
b. A request for call-up review pursuant to Subdivision C shall be initiated by
a member of a board of appeals (either the planning commission or city
council) delivering written request for call-up review to the city manager or
his/her designee within fifteen calendar days of the date on which the
decision of the director or the planning commission (as applicable) was
rendered. Upon timely receipt of the request for call-up review, the city
manager or his/her designee shall schedule as an agenda item at the next
regular meeting of the board of appeals, on which the member calling up
review is seated, the question whether an appeal shall be considered for
the decision subject to call-up review. If the next regular meeting of the
board of appeals is cancelled, the city manager or his/her designee shall
reschedule the question whether an appeal shall be considered at the
next regular meeting that is not cancelled. No appeal may be heard on a
decision subject to call-up review unless a majority of the membership of
the board of appeals votes to approve the consideration of the appeal.
The board of appeals shall consider the appeal that was subject to call-up
review not later than forty-five days after the board of appeals votes to
263
Ordinance No. 538
Amendment to Title 9 Zoning
Adopted:
Page 42 of 63
approve consideration of the appeal. An appeal may be heard and
decided at the same meeting at which the majority of the membership
voted to approve the call-up review, provided no applicable law would be
violated if the hearing of an appeal occurs at the same meeting. A
member of the city council may initiate the call-up review process for a
director's decision on a development review permit, without the need for
review of that decision by the planning commission, in which case an
appeal of the decision subject to call-up review may be considered directly
by the city council if a majority of the membership of the city council vote
to approve the consideration of the appeal pursuant to this section.
2. Required Documents. Each appeal, except for call-up reviews, shall be in
writing and shall include all grounds for the appeal and sufficient
information so as to make it clear to the planning commission or city
council the substance of each of the grounds for appeal. The director may
require that the written appeal be accompanied by such other documents
and information that the director determines to be necessary to
adequately explain and provide proper notification for the appeal. No
appeal shall be accepted if it fails to contain the grounds for the appeal
and the description of the grounds.
3. Forwarding of Records. When an appeal has been received, the director
shall forward to the planning commission or city council all documents
and information on file pertinent to the appeal together with the minutes or
official action of the decision -making authority and a report on the basis of
the decision.
4. Public Hearing Requirements. If the original approving action did not
require a public hearing, the appeal review shall not require a public
hearing. If the original approving action required a public hearing, the
appeal review shall also require a public hearing. Notice and scheduling
requirements for an appeal hearing shall be the same as those for an
original hearing as described in Section 9.200.110.
5. Issues to be Considered. The planning commission or city councilmay
refuse to consider any issues which were not raised by the appellant or
another person either by verbal testimony or written correspondence
made at or before the time the decision -making authority took action.
When reviewing a decision -making authority's decision via its own call-up
review, the planning commission or city council may raise and consider
any issue it deems appropriate to the project application.
6. Action on Appeal. Not later than forty-five days after an appeal has been
received and accepted by the director, the planning commission or city
council shall consider the appeal and take one of the following actions:
a. Take action to sustain, reverse or modify the original decision. If an
original decision to approve a project is modified, the planning
commission or city council may modify permitted land uses, place
additional or different conditions of approval on the project, direct that
264
Ordinance No. 538
Amendment to Title 9 Zoning
Adopted:
Page 43 of 63
revisions be made to project plans, or require other project
modifications.
b. Continue the appeal for further consideration.
c. Refer the application back to the original decision -making authority
with directions.
7. Majority Vote. Action by the planning commission or city council to reverse or
modify an appealed decision shall require a majority vote of appeal board
members present. If there is a tie vote, the original decision shall stand. (Ord.
284 § 1 (Exh. A), 1996)

this section on any of the following grounds:
1. Such approval was based on inaccurate or misleading information.
2. One or more of the conditions upon which such approval was granted or
extended have been violated.
3. A change in conditions occurring after the original grant of the approval or
the continuation of the use as approved is contrary to public health, safety
or general welfare, or is detrimental or incompatible with other permitted
uses in the vicinity.
4. The findings which were the basis for the original permit approval can no
longer be made.
5. Other grounds as set forth elsewhere in this code such as, but not limited
to, those for sexually oriented businesses.

notice. The notice shall state the causes for which the revocation is to be
considered.
C. Action of Decision -Making Authority. Following the hearing, the decision -
making authority may revoke the permit or revoke the permit subject to
reinstatement upon compliance with the conditions of the original permit.
D. Amortization. If a revocation of any permit is ordered, the decision -making
authority may at the same time provide for a reasonable period of time to
amortize any lawful existing uses on the site. Extensions of this time period
may be granted for good cause shown on later application to the decision -
making authority by any affected person.
E. Appeal. Any action by the decision -making authority pursuant to this section
may be appealed as set forth in Section 9.200.120.

13.12.140 Appeals.
A. Persons Who May Appeal. A subdivider or any other interested party may appeal a
decision of the city manager or his/her designee, or a decision of the planning
commission, by using the following procedures:
1. Appeal of Approval Authority Decision. Within fifteen calendar days after the date
of any decision by the city manager or his/her designee, a written appeal,
accompanied by the appropriate filing fee, may be submitted to the design and
development department. The "date of decision" shall be either the time a formal
noticed hearing is held or the date noted on correspondence mailed to the
subdivider indicating the decision. The appeal shall state the item to be appealed
and the reason for the request. The city manager or his/her designee shall set
the matter for hearing before the planning commission within thirty days after the
date of filing the appeal. Written notice of the hearing shall be provided by mail to
the subdivider, the property owner and those property owners or individuals
originally noticed at the time of the first public hearing.
2. Appeal of the Planning Commission Decision. Within fifteen calendar days after
the date of the decision by the planning commission, a written appeal,
accompanied by the appropriate filing fee, may be submitted to the design and
development department. The city clerk shall set the matter for hearing before
the city council. The hearing on the appeal shall be held not more than thirty
days from the date of receipt of the appeal and shall give written notice of the
hearing to the subdivider, property owner, and those property owners or
individuals originally noticed at the first public hearing.
B. Call -Up Review. The board of appeals (either the planning commission or city
council), on its own motion adopted by a majority vote of its total membership, may
elect to call up and review any decision of the city manager or his/her designee or a
296
Ordinance No. 539
Amendment to Title 13 Subdivision Regulations
Adopted: April 5, 2016
Page 10
decision of the planning commission regarding the action taken on a subdivision. A
request for call-up review shall be initiated by a member of a board of appeals
(either the planning commission or city council) delivering written request for call-up
review to the city manager or his/her designee within fifteen calendar days of the
date on which the decision of the city manager or his/her designee or the planning
commission (as applicable) was rendered. Upon timely receipt of the request for Gall-
up review, the city manager or his/her designee shall schedule as an agenda item at
the next regular meeting of the board of appeals, on which the member calling up
review is seated, the question whether an appeal shall be considered for the
decision subject to call-up review. If the next regular meeting of the board of appeals
is cancelled, the city manager or his/her designee shall reschedule the question
whether an appeal shall be considered at the next regular meeting that is not
cancelled. No appeal may be heard on a decision subject to call-up review unless a
majority of the membership of the board of appeals votes to approve the
consideration of the appeal. The board of appeals shall consider the appeal that was
subject to call-up review not later than forty-five days after the board of appeals
votes to approve consideration of the appeal. An appeal may be heard and decided
at the same meeting at which the majority of the membership voted to approve the
call-up review, provided no applicable law would be violated if the hearing of an
appeal occurs at the same meeting. A member of the city council may initiate the
call-up review process for a decision by the city manager or his/her designee,
without the need for review of that decision by the planning commission, in which
case an appeal of the decision subject to call-up review may be considered directly
by the city council if a majority of the membership of the city council vote to approve
the consideration of the appeal pursuant to this section. For purposes of this section,
the "board of appeals" shall be the planning commission for decisions appealed to
the planning commission and shall be the city council for decisions appealed to the
city council.
C. Concurrent Appeals. An appeal of a decision, including call-up review, pursuant to
this section may be processed concurrently with any appeal of a decision brought
pursuant to Section 9.200.120, as may be amended from time to time. In the event
of an inconsistency between the appeal process under this section and the appeal
process in Section 9.200.120, the process in Section 9.200.120 shall apply to the
processing of an appeal for an action taken on a subdivision.

13.12.160 Extensions of time for tentative maps.
The expiration of an approved tentative map shall terminate all proceedings and no final
map or parcel map of all or any portion of the real property included within the tentative
map shall be filed with the city council without first processing a new tentative map. The
initial three-year term of tentative maps may be extended as follows:
A. Nothing in this chapter shall preclude or otherwise disallow any automatic time
extension which may be granted by the state of California, for any approved
tentative map meeting the criteria for such an extension. Any automatic
extension shall run from the expiration date of the qualifying map, and shall be in
addition to any remaining extensions available under this chapter.
B. Request by the Subdivider. Before the expiration of the tentative map, the
subdivider may apply for an extension of time. Applications for extensions of time
shall be filed with the design and development department. All requests for
extensions of time shall include:
1. A completed application form;
2. An identification of the length of time requested and reason(s) for the request;
3. The current processing fee as charged by the city for tentative map time
extensions;
4. The requisite number of copies of the tentative map as required by the
application. The tentative map shall be as approved by the approval authority.
Additional copies may be requested subsequent to the application submittal.
Extensions of time may be granted by the city manager or his/her designee if there are
no changes to the approved tentative map. The city manager or his/her designee may
waive some or all submittal material as noted in subsections (B)(1) through (4) of this
section. Extensions of time that include changes to the approved tentative map are
subject to the public notification procedure provided for in Section 13.12.090 and will be
considered at a public hearing, to be held by the designated approval authority as set
forth in Section 13.04.060. A time extension granted by the city manager or his/her
designee may not exceed two years.
The approval authority may grant a maximum of six one-year time extensions. The
extension may be granted for any period of time, from one year up to the maximum of
six years. The approval authority shall impose additional conditions of approval if such

Amendment to Title 13 Subdivision Regulations
Adopted: April 5, 2016
Page 12
conditions are intended to maintain the public health, safety and welfare and/or to
comply with current city, state or federal requirements.
If, as part of the request for extension of the term of a tentative map, the subdivider
requests changes or amendments to the tentative map or the conditions of approval for
that map, the approval authority may impose other conditions or amendments to the
tentative map or the conditions of approval including the then -current standards and
requirements for approval of tentative maps.
C. Filing of Final Maps/Off-site Improvements. If a subdivider is required to expend
the amount specified in Section 66453.6 of the Government Code to construct,
improve or finance the construction or improvement of public improvements
outside the property boundaries of the tentative map, excluding improvements of
public rights -of -way which abut the boundary of the property to be subdivided
and which are reasonably related to the development of that property, each filing
of a final map authorized by Section 66456.1 of the Government Code shall
extend the expiration of the approved tentative map by thirty-six months from the
date of its expiration or the date of a previously filed final map, whichever is later.
The extensions shall not extend the term of the tentative map more than ten
years from its approval.
D. Development Agreements, Moratoriums, Lawsuits, Etc. Additional factors
affecting the term of approved tentative maps, and information for the proper
construction of the provisions of subsections A through C of this section shall be
as specified in Section 66452.6 of the Government Code. (Ord. 394 § 2, 2003;
Ord. 295 § 1, 1997; Ord. 272 § 1, 1995)
13.12.170 Substantial conformance with tentative map
The process and criteria for substantial conformance determinations with an approved
tentative map are at the discretion of the city manager or his/her designee, based on the
definition set forth in Section 13.04.070. Requests for substantial conformance
determinations shall be filed with the design and development department in the format
and with the information as may be required by the city manager or his/her designee in
order to adequately review and decide on the request. As part of the review, the city
manager or his/her designee shall transmit a copy of the request to the planning division

2. Development Code Tune Up - Recommendation to eliminate Chapter 2.35
Historic Preservation Commission from the City of La Quinta Municipal Code.
Planning Manager Perez presented the information contained in the staff report, a
copy of which is on file in the Community Development Department.
The Commission said they understand and support Council's efforts to streamline the
development process and be fiscally responsible. However, they expressed a general
disagreement with the Ad -hoc Committee's recommendation to eliminate the Historic
Preservation Commission. The Commission addressed the following issues:
Importance of maintaining the Certified Local Government (CLG) status -
placed emphasis on the prior efforts, funds, and staff time spent on obtaining
the CLG status originally; explained that the benefits of the CLG status are
scarce because the City has not identified and placed priority on any historic
preservation projects that would qualify for CLG grants; the Commission is
interested in many projects that have not been addressed due to a continuous
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION SPECIAL MEETING
MINUTES 2 MARCH 1, 2016

change in staff and other priority City items, such as to work with residents and
the La Quinta Historical Society to establish the Cove historic district comprised
of 57 homes and to obtain a landmark status through the State, to place
plaques on historical buildings of importance throughout the City, to complete
a bicycle map, to mention a few. Further, obtaining a CLG status in the future
might be a very difficult process;
Assembly Bill 52 establishes consultation requirements with all California
Native American Tribes on the Native American Heritage Commission List and
does not provide staff the ability to realize any time savings for the developer
as staff still needs to allow for the 90 day notification period; thus, no actual
time streamlining is achieved if the item is not presented to the Commission;
further, some instances may require the presence of a tribal member or
consultant as tribal notification will not suffice;
Frequency of meetings - the Commission met only five times during 2015/16; it
recommended amending the bylaws to allow for quarterly meetings;
Possibility of combining the Historic Preservation Commission with another
existing City Board or Commission that can assume its responsibilities and
purview, and allow for the CLG status to be maintained;
The stakeholders' feedback received through the community outreach efforts of
the Development Code Tune Up review were from developers and contractors;
no comments were received from homeowners who own historic properties
and are very interested to see them preserved, and will be concerned when
they realize that historic preservation is not being taken seriously by the City;
Lack of appreciation of the City's historic resources in general, including
underground, dwellings, as well as the beautiful mountains;
The Ad -hoc Committee Members, with the exception of Chairperson Wright,
have never attended a Historic Preservation Commission meeting; there is a
difference when evaluating the benefits of a Commission on paper and in
action;
Financial savings would be minimal based on the limited amount of meetings
the Commission has held over the last few years; further, the Commissioners
have individually covered the majority of expenses associated with the required
yearly trainings and conferences;
Other Coachella Valley local municipalities are currently in the process of
establishing historic preservation commissions.

The Commission asked who will be responsible for historic preservation review if the
Commission is disbanded. Staff replied the reviews will be completed by planning
staff, additionally, the Ad -hoc Committee's recommendation was for staff to work in
conjunction with the La Quinta Historical Society in the review of historical,
archaeological, and paleontological reports.
Staff noted that this item will be presented to the Planning Commission on March 8,
2016, and encouraged the Commission to attend and express their comments at the
meeting.
The Commission reached a unanimous consensus recommending that the City Council
does not eliminate Chapter 2.35 Historic Preservation Commission from the La Quinta
Municipal Code.

City of La Quinta
RE: Historic Preservation Commission Elimination
Dear Concerned Parties:
First, I want to thank you for the efforts that have gone into analysis re: termination of
Historical Preservation Commission. - I do not think you took this decision lightly! But as
none of you (with the exception of Bob Wright) have ever served on the HPC, I think
there are some points of which you should be made aware. With that said, here is some
of my reasoning as expressed at the meeting on 3/1 /2016 after a presentation by Mr.
Perez and for why this action should not take place, and for my vote opposing same:
Focus Appears To Be On Only One Aspect Of HPC "Charge" & Not the Entire Municipal
Code Provisions Regarding Powers and Duties of the HPC
The focus appears to be on the costs to developers for the review by the HPC as well as
the costs to the City for that Commission's meetings, etc. when it should be on the next
focus of that Commission for the next several years.
The fees for the HPC review are paid by developers to the City, so the City shouldn't be
out a great deal of $ on that.
The HPC hasn't attended any conferences, etc. for at least a couple of years now versus
in the past when conferences, flights, etc. were paid by the City.
Cost of meetings is predicated upon both number of meetings held AND cost of
cancelling meetings. This is because HPC meetings are scheduled on an annual basis
yet meetings are only held when need for review of projects - which means only about 5
actual meetings held this year with 7 cancellations - costs could be reduced by
scheduling HPC meetings "on calendar" only 4 times year (requirement of maintaining
CLG status & when there is nothing historical for review, those meetings could be used for
webinar classes to maintain commissioner's CLG educational requirements) & then
having additional meetings only as needed for review of projects with historical
significance (further discussed below). This would reduce costs of having to post
cancellations, etc.
There have been only 2 reviews within the past year brought to HPC and which resulted
in those 5 meetings (2 meetings were held on same development as I recall) - not a lot
of cost to developers. Each of these were approved by the HPC with only tribal input
requested (which would now be mandatory under new guidelines/laws & so HPC would
not be involved in that any more anyway). Remember the HPC is only advisory, and so
we could not stop a development or project anyway!
IF new laws allow the "tribal aspect" of review by HPC (which was part of past emphasis),
even fewer would now have to go to HPC - would be limited to only those with possible
historic significance rather than tribal or cultural significance. This eliminates the
idea/position that the HPC adds to the review process time or is potentially redundant of
322
2
the CEQA process/review, and the elimination of this from the duties of the HPC will
hopefully result in a streamlining of the developer's process by the actions of the
Planning Commission or other entities charged with those tribal notifications.
Other HPC charges (see Chapter 2.35, Section 2.35.040 B1, 2, 3, 5 and C3, 4, 6, 14, 15, 16,
17) should be the emphasis for the future - and bolster need to maintain CLG status -
with CLG status, City can apply for grants, etc. to facilitate those "charges" being
developed, implemented and monitored as indicated in those Chapter requirements.
This was beginning to be the shift of focus of the committee before David Sawyer retired,
but then with changes in staff, etc. - it seemed to have fallen by the wayside. We had
completed input on the bike/walk guide sheet/booklets and on the website re: same -
and were starting to discuss how to go about next steps toward historic landmarks,
historic districts, etc.
As I understand it, the 1996 survey is not quite complete and needs to be revised - that
tally of the historic homes/buildings in LQ also needs to be coordinated with the Planner's
database so that when a request for demolition/construction can be reviewed against
the historical aspect/importance of that building & then adjustments made in that review
process - another aspect of the HPC that would be future work, but which had not yet
been begun as the HPC was not informed until Tuesday's meeting that this coordination
of databases did not exist! This would indeed demonstrate the City's concern for cultural
resources and would maintain that CLG status. It should be noted that this 1996 Survey
identified 72 properties eligible for landmark status, 6 eligible for National Registry and
approximately 57 with potential for forming a Historic District in the Cove - all projects
that should be the next focus of the HPC.
It seems that the developers were deemed to be the "stakeholders" in this review &
determination to eliminate the review by HPC - but the entire City of La Quinta & its
citizenry are stakeholders in the historical buildings throughout this City - and in
identifying, maintaining, advertising & working on getting that info to the public - all of
which are HPC "Powers and Duties" but all of which have not been begun yet - we were
aware that developer review was diminishing as fewer and fewer projects were being
built, but were starting that other aspect of the HPC's identified duties. We should be
allowed the opportunity to serve the citizenry in this capacity.
Need to Maintain CLG Status
CLG status was hard fought several years in the past, and it would be a shame to throw
the baby away with the bath water - especially as the baby hasn't yet had a chance to
develop its full potential!
It was said that there is concern re: the costs to compile the required annual CLG report
but let's be honest - for the last several years, it has simply been a matter of "nothing
new since last report". But now there is potential for that to change and in a positive
way that could engender CLG monies coming our way for those historically centered
projects!
CLG requires only 4 meetings a year - so the HPC calendar could be scheduled annually
accordingly, as discussed above - eliminating the need for repeated costs for cancelling
monthly meetings that didn't occur because there were no developments to review,
and the costs of posting that cancellation, etc. Those meetings could be focused
entirely on the historical charges identified above and in the Municipal Code sections
cited above.
323
3
CLG requires a 5 person committee/commission. But it is possible that this
committee/commission could be combined with another committee/commission -
something that could be considered and implemented, if allowed under CLG guidelines.
If not, there is really a de minimis cost to the City - the commissioners are paid only $75
each per meeting - and my poll of the commissioners indicates that ALL are willing (as I
have done) to waive that payment! Frankly, it costs me more money to pay my
accountant to prepare extra schedules because of that $75 per meeting than that $75
amounts to!
Please note that other cities in the Valley are just beginning to see the need for Historic
Preservation Committees in their own jurisdictions - why should our City be the one going
backward instead of forward in this regard? And they are seeing that the CLG
designation is harder and harder to obtain - why should our City let this go and then
perhaps in future years regret that decision? We have historical sites that need to be
developed as the Municipal Code sets out - and we need to maintain that CLG status
for possible funding, direction and education toward those goals.
If there is no HPC - what commission or committee or part of City government is going to
take on those historical site development roles - who will assure that preservation of
those historical buildings will occur? There does not appear to be a plan to do anything
as to those aspects of the HPC charge - but those are important duties and
responsibilities that this City should not sweep under the rug.
I urge you to reconsider your position and determine not to eliminate this valuable and
important commission.
Sincerely,
Peggy Redmon

8.80.050 Grading bonds.
A. Requirements. A permit will not be issued for excavation or fill of more than five
hundred cubic yards (three hundred eighty cubic meters) in hillside areas, more than
one thousand cubic yards (seven hundred sixty cubic meters) in other areas, or for any
work which requires retaining walls, until the permittee shall post with the city engineer a
bond for the benefit of the city. The bond shall be executed by the owner and a
corporate surety authorized to do business in this state as surety in an amount sufficient
to cover the cost of the project, including corrective work necessary to remove and
eliminate geological hazards. All bonds shall be in a form acceptable to the city
engineer.
Exception: The city engineer may waive the requirement that a bond be posted before a
permit is issued as provided in this section if the city engineer determines that no
potential hazard would exist if the grading is not completed.
B. Cash or Deposit Agreement in Lieu of Bond. In lieu of a surety bond the applicant
may file a deposit agreement or deposit cash with the city engineer upon the same
terms and conditions and in an amount equal to that which would be required in the
surety bond. The deposit submitted with the cash bond may be in the form of cash or
negotiable United States securities. The deposit agreement shall be on forms approved
by the city engineer.
C. Application of Bond to Adjacent Property. Where grading is required on property
adjacent to the grading site under permit to complete a project satisfactorily, written
consent must be obtained from the adjacent owner and a copy of the written consent
submitted to the city engineer prior to commencement of grading on the adjacent
property. The owner of such adjacent property need not provide an additional grading
bond, if the original is of sufficient amount to include such additional grading.
D. Conditions of the Bond, Deposit Agreement, or Cash Deposit. Every bond, deposit
agreement or cash deposit shall be conditioned that the permittee shall:
1. Comply with all of the provisions of this chapter and all other applicable laws
and ordinances.
2. Comply with all of the terms and conditions of the permit for excavation and fill
to the satisfaction of the city engineer.
E. Period and Termination of Bond, Deposit Agreement, or Cash Deposit.
1. The term of each security shall begin upon the date of filing with and shall
remain in effect until the completion of the work to the satisfaction of the city
engineer, plus an additional period of one year. Such completion shall be evidenced
3
329
by inspection and acceptance of the work by the cSity e€ngineer or dDesignee. In
the event of failure to complete the work and failure to comply with all of the
conditions and terms of the permit, the city engineer may order the work to be
completed as required by the permit and to the satisfaction of the city engineer's
office. The surety executing such bond or such deposit, shall continue to be firmly
bound under a continuing obligation for the payment of all necessary costs and
expenses that may be incurred or expended by the city in causing any and all of
such required work to be accomplished and that said surety or the depositor assents
to any lawful extensions of time within which to construct and complete such work.
In the case of a cash deposit or deposit agreement, any unused portion shall be
refunded to the permittee.
2. After the work has been completed to the satisfaction of the city engineer, the
city engineer may release or exonerate the bond, deposit agreement, or cash
deposit earlier than the additional one-year period if the city engineer determines
that the public health and welfare is not jeopardized. In no case shall the security be
released earlier than four months after the grading work has been completed to the
satisfaction of the city engineer.
F. Amount of Security. The amount of the security shall be based upe the
estimated GOSt plus twenty perGent, as determined by the number Of GubiG yards o

any decision by the city manager or his/her designee, a written appeal,
accompanied by the appropriate filing fee, may be submitted to the design and
development department. The "date of decision" shall be either the time a formal
noticed hearing is held or the date noted on correspondence mailed to the
subdivider indicating the decision. The appeal shall state the item to be appealed
and the reason for the request. The city manager or his/her designee shall set
the matter for hearing before the planning commission within forty-five days after
the date of filing the appeal. Written notice of the hearing shall be provided by
mail to the subdivider, the property owner and those property owners or
individuals oriainally noticed at the time of the first public hearina.

date of the decision by the planning commission, a written appeal, accompanied
by the appropriate filing fee, may be submitted to the design and development
department. The city manager or his/her designee shall set the matter for hearing
before the city council. The hearing on the appeal shall be held not more than
forty-five days from the date of receipt of the appeal and shall give written notice
of the hearing to the subdivider, property owner, and those property owners or
individuals originally noticed at the first public hearing.
B. Call -Up Review. The board of appeals (either the planning commission or city
council), on its own motion adopted by a majority vote of its total membership,
may elect to call up and review any decision of the city manager or his/her
designee or a decision of the planning commission regarding the action taken on
a subdivision. A request for call-up review shall be initiated by a member of a
board of appeals (either the planning commission or city council) delivering
written request for call-up review to the city manager or his/her designee within
fifteen calendar days of the date on which the decision of the city manager or
his/her designee or the planning commission (as applicable) was rendered.
Upon timely receipt of the request for call-up review, the city manager or his/her
designee shall schedule as an agenda item at the next regular meeting of the
board of appeals, on which the member calling up review is seated, the question
whether an appeal shall be considered for the decision subject to call-up review.
If the next regular meeting of the board of appeals is cancelled, the city manager
or his/her designee shall reschedule the question whether an appeal shall be
considered at the next regular meeting that is not cancelled. No appeal may be
heard on a decision subiect to call-uo review unless a maioritv of the
11
423
membership of the board of appeals votes to approve the consideration of the
appeal. The board of appeals shall consider the appeal that was subject to Gall-
up review not later than forty-five days after the board of appeals votes to
approve consideration of the appeal. An appeal may be heard and decided at
the same meeting at which the majority of the membership voted to approve the
call-up review, provided no applicable law would be violated if the hearing of an
appeal occurs at the same meeting. A member of the city council may initiate the
call-up review process for a decision by the city manager or his/her designee,
without the need for review of that decision by the planning commission, in which
case an appeal of the decision subject to call-up review may be considered
directly by the city council if a majority of the membership of the city council vote
to approve the consideration of the appeal pursuant to this section. For purposes
of this section, the "board of appeals" shall be the planning commission for
decisions appealed to the planning commission and shall be the city council for
decisions appealed to the city council.

to this section may be processed concurrently with any appeal of a decision
brought pursuant to Section 9.200.120, as may be amended from time to time. In
the event of an inconsistency between the appeal process under this section and
the appeal process in Section 9.200.120, the process in Section 9.200.120 shall
apply to the processing of an appeal for an action taken on a subdivision.

Martha Mendez, Public Safety Manager
DATE: April 5, 2016
SUBJECT: 2016 Goldenvoice Concerts at Empire Polo Club in Indio
Preparation for the 2016 Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals is well
underway. Similar to previous years, Coachella will be held over two separate
weekends (April 15 - 17 and April 22 - 24), while Stagecoach will be a single
weekend (April 29 - May 1). Hours of operation have not changed. Coachella
will start at 11 a.m. and conclude at 1:00 a.m. the first two evenings and 12:00
a.m. the final evening. Stagecoach will open gates at noon and end at 12:00
a.m. the first two evenings, and 11:00 p.m. the final evening. Campground
entertainment curfew is 1:30 a.m.
Goldenvoice and representatives from the Cities of Indio and La Quinta have
jointly attended meetings with homeowner association (HOA) representatives
from several neighboring HOA's over the past several weeks. These meetings
have focused on identifying and addressing concerns with noise, traffic, access,
security and pedestrian traffic. Comments provided by HOA representatives
have generally been positive and supportive of the efforts Goldenvoice and the
two cities have made to address and mitigate most of the concerns previously
voiced.
Multiple operations meetings conducted over the past few months have
focused on several items, including taxi, Uber and shuttle service
improvements; pedestrian access and circulation; trash cleanup; and review of
the Media Plan (Plan). The Plan is scheduled to go into effect the first week of
April and will intensify leading up to and during the three weekends. The Plan
will utilize local TV stations, The Desert Sun, local radio stations, as well as other
local resources (Chamber of Commerce, Community Resources e-newsletter,
Nextdoor La Quinta, Facebook, Tourism website, etc.). Media blasts will focus
upon ingress/egress routes and times, alternate routes, road closures, taxi,
Uber, and parent drop-off and pick-up locations, as well as the concert hotline.
433
A notable modification to the shuttle bus route will be implemented this year.
Most shuttle buses leaving the concert after midnight will now use Jefferson
Street to access Highway 111 instead of Washington Street. This should
alleviate some of the late -night noise along Avenue 48. The only exceptions
are shuttle buses servicing La Quinta Resort, which will still use Avenue 48 to
Washington Street.
Representatives from Goldenvoice (Darren Carroll), the City of Indio (Jim Curtis)
and the City of La Quinta (Tustin K. Larson), will be attending regular operations
meetings during the festivals. Code Compliance staff will be in the field during
the festival monitoring noise levels and addressing festival related code
violations. La Quinta Police presence will be similar to last year's during all
three music festivals, and all will be available to respond to and assist with
resident concerns and issues relevant to the music festivals.
For questions during the concerts, please contact me at (760) 501-8801 or Code
Compliance staff at (760) 777-7145. We will be available during each of the
three concert weekends.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
DEPARTMENT REPORT
TO: Madam Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Timothy R. Jonasson, P.E., Design and Development Director/City Engineer
DATE: April 5, 2016
SUBJECT: FAIRWAYS VILLAS' PARKWAY LANDSCAPING
The Fairways Villas development is located on the southwest corner of Washington
Street and Eisenhower Drive. The Fairways Villas Homeowners Association (HOA)
contacted the City regarding the adjacent parkway between the street curb and the
HOA's boundary wall. The area in question was originally dedicated to the County in
1969 as a public right-of-way easement for Eisenhower Drive; however, no ownership
was conveyed to either the County or the City when the easement was transferred upon
incorporation. In November 2014, the HOA was issued an encroachment permit
(Attachment 1) to trim the oleander bushes, which screened the development's wall
from Eisenhower Drive. The bushes were removed entirely as they were found to be
diseased and no replacement landscaping was installed. In October 2015, prompted by a
citizen complaint, the City's Code Enforcement Division issued a Notice of Violation to the
HOA requiring replacement landscaping and irrigation be installed, per La Quinta
Municipal Code 9.60.030 (Attachment 2).
The HOA claims they are not responsible for landscape and maintenance of the parkway,
and such requirement would create a financial hardship on its members (Attachment 3).
The City has not maintained this area in the past; further, the area is not identified on the
Landscape and Lighting District (L&L District) map as a City maintained area. The
preliminary cost estimate for the improvements is approximately $40,000, using one of
the City's drought tolerant landscape palettes.
City staff (Staff) met with the property management staff and HOA members to identify
an amicable solution for both the HOA and the City. One option is to add this project to
next year's general fund Capital Improvement Program sponsored projects and absorb
the maintenance cost into the existing L&L District. However, Staff recommends a more
sustainable long-term solution by creating a new assessment district to cover City
incurred costs for improvements and maintenance. Staff will discuss this option with the

The following General and Special Provisions are attached to and made a part of
Permit Number TC2014-1035
The following shall always apply:
ENCROACHMENT ON PRIVATE PROPERTY: This permit authorizes work to be accomplished within the City of La Quinta's right of way

surface unless fitted with smoother -faced street pads. All mechanical outriggers shall be fitted with rubber street shoes to protect the paving
during excavations. Rubber -tired equipment only shall be used in backfill operation in paved areas. If.the existing pavement is scarred, spalled,
or broken during the term of this contract or if the pavement is marred, City of La Quinta shall request that these portions of road be resurfaced
over their entire width. Resurfacing shall consist of one coat of two inches (2") of A.C. surfacing plus appropriate seal coat as specified above.

and drainage ditches shall be replaced to their original standard or better. All excess material shall be removed prior to paving. Water tanker
shall be used, as required, to sprinkle the job site to keep down dust conditions and shall be used immediately after backfill.
DE -WATER OPERTATIONS: If de -watering operations are required and pumps are forcing water on City of La Quinta roads, it shall be the
responsibility of the permittee (contractor) to control this water and to provide off-street barricades when necessary.
CLOSING STREETS: No street shall be closed. A minimum of one lane of traffic shall be maintained at all times to provide limited access for

RE: Notice of Violation from City Dated December 29 2015 Case #15-1052
Dear Mr. Jonasson,
Please let me provide some background information to you regarding the subject notice of violation. In
2014 Fairway Villas ("FV") contracted with a landscaper to remove the diseased and dying oleanders
along Eisenhower Drive in front of the security wall fronting FV, under the assumption that FV owned
this property. The cost to remove the oleanders was approximately $10,000.
In a follow up meeting with the city, FV was advised that it, in fact, does not own the strip of land along
Eisenhower Drive and that this land was part of a 100 foot right of way owned by the City of La Quinta.
In the summer of 2015, FV spent the money set aside for landscaping and sprinklers along Eisenhower
Drive to landscape the inside wall, along with sprinklers and lighting. The cost of these improvements
was approximately an additional $20,000. We also went back to the city and informally requested that
the City reimburse FV for the removal of oleanders along the right of way. FV was advised that the city
did not have funds in its budget for this project. At the request of the City and the water department,
FV also spent capital funds in 2014 and 2015 to convert parts of its grass areas and flowered areas to
desertscape in order to conserve water. Total funds spent on all these projects over the past two years
have exceeded $40,000.
On December 29, 2015, FV and its property manager (J&W Management Company) were cited for the
following violation: "The area between the back of the curb and fencing shall be landscaped, having a
suitable permanent irrigation system and be continuously maintained by the property owner". FV is not
the property owner and has not maintained this strip of land in the past and has never had a permanent
irrigation system in place on this land.
In January, Don Weber (President of FV homeowner association) met with Anthony Moreno to contest
the citation, because FV does not own this property. He was told that planning made a mistake and that
FV does, in fact, own this strip of land. Mr. Weber agreed to meet with the homeowners in February to
determine who has maintained this property in the past and to clarify who owns the subject strip of
land. It was determined at the meeting that FV has not maintained this property in the past other than
the mistaken removal of diseased and dying oleanders sometime in 2014.
455
FV is a small HOA with ten members and does not have the financial ability to install new landscaping
and a permanent irrigation system on land we do not own along Eisenhower drive. Most of its owners
are elderly and on a fixed income.
FV and J&W Management recently received a second notice of violation pertaining to the landscaping
issue dated February 29, 2016. Don Weber and Sylvia Corsini (1&W Mgt. Co. representative) met again
with Anthony Moreno, Bryan McKinney, and Amy Yu on Monday March 14 to discuss the citation. FV
contends that they do not own this property and are not subject to the municipal code violation. Mr.
Weber and Ms. Corsini were advised to meet with city council members just prior to the regularly
scheduled meeting at 4 pm on Tuesday March 15 to state our case and ask for support from the City to
landscape this City owned property. Marsha Soday (Board Member) and Sylvia Corsini attended this
meeting and made a short presentation.
Since FV does not own the property along Eisenhower Drive outside its security wall, and we have not
maintained this property in the past, we believe it is the City's responsibility to landscape this strip of
land along Eisenhower Drive and provide suitable irrigation and lighting (if necessary). If the City would
make the needed landscape improvements on the right of way along Eisenhower Drive out of funds in
its new budget, FV would agree to maintain this property going forward.
It is our understanding that the City has provided financial assistance to other nearby properties in the
past. Please consider this request in your upcoming budget discussions for the City's capital budget.
Thanks for your support.
Sincerely,
J&W Management Company

Report to La Quinta City Council
Palm Springs International Airport Commission Meeting
MARCH 16, 2016
2016-2017 BUDGET PROCESS:
On March 9, the Budget Committee (of which I am a member) met to review the draft
budget. After review, the Committee voted unanimously to forward the draft to the
entire Commission to determine if it should be sent to the City Council for approval.
Note: in order to foster more transparency and provide more time for residents to
consider it, the Budget process was sped up by 7 weeks. The Budget must now be
presented to the City Council by April 20 — a significant challenge.
I was unable to attend the Commission meeting itself, so have attached the Staff's
individual reports. It is also worth noting that passenger activity at the Airport did
increase in February by 5.8%, as expected.
