Attention: Mayor Fred Wolff
Re: Revised specific Plan for Landmark Land Company
Dear Mayor Wolff and Members of the Council:
We represent a number of property owners and
residents in the La Quinta area who are interested in the
plans of the Coachella Valley County Water District CVCWD'?)
to build a regional sewage treatment facility. Our clients
recently notified us that the City Council approved a revised
specific plan for the Landmark Land Company that would allow
up to 1,558 condOminium and hotel units to be built.
Last December, our clients authorized u? to file
a Petition with the State Water Resources Control Board
objecting to noxious odors from the treatment facility
located northeast of Washington Street and Avenue 52. In
response to concerns we raised in our Petition, Landmark and
the CVCWD quickly implemented an aerated treatment lagoon
system that was a vast improvement over their original
disposal plans. Our engineers have informed us that the
existing temporary facility could not handle the additional
units planned by Landmark. The Regional Water Quality
Control Board RWQCB1) has approved a maximum discharge of
150,000 gallons per day GPD') for the temporary system.
The new units approved for Landmark are estimated to produce
at least 350,000 GPD, or double the capacity of the existing
system.
We are also concerned about the accuracy of the
statement quoted in the Riverside Press Enterprise by an
official of the CVCWD that plans are proceeding to build a
treatment plant 1-1/2 miles southeast of Lake Cahuilla
behind a storm dike.' We have been following the environ-
mental process conducted by the CVCWD and want you to know
that the regional treatment plant is still very much in the
planning stage. The Board has not yet selected a site. It
has been studying a variety of sites over the past two years.

Letter to
Mayor Wolff and Members
of City Council/La Quinta
September 30, 1982, Page 2
Our clients vigorously oppose the location of the treatment
plant at the site southeast of Lake Cahuilla behind the
storm dike. The area is subject to landslides and rock
slides as well as flooding. Destruction or damage to the
plant could harm the use of our clients? property. We think
that a far better plan would be to locate the plant at the
Thermal Airport. Our clients have expended considerable
funds to hire their own engineers to investigate both the
site southeast of Lake Cahuilla and the Thermal Airport
site. It is our opinion that unless we are able to reach
agreement with CVCWD in the near future about a mutually
acceptable site, that the early construction of the regional
treatment plant is questionable.
Also, you should be aware that the Regional
Water Quality control Board may not be pr?pared to permit
the temporary sewage treatment facility to operate indefi-
nitely. Pursuant to Order No. 81-92 of the California
Regional Water Quality Control Board Colorado River Basin
Region Novem-ber 18, 1981) the CVCWD must submit a report
in December, 1982 of its progress towards the construction
of the areawide treatment plant. This is because the treat-
ment plant was approved as a temporary project. The State
Water Resources Control Board in their Order No. WQ 82-9,
dated August 19, 1982 in response to our Petition) stated
that if the report to be submitted in December of 1982,
fails to indicate satisfactory progress, the Regional Board
should consider appropriate measures such as a time schedule."
We thought that you should be aware of the above
information as we believe there is substantial doubt that a
permanent wastewater treatment facility will be built in
the near future to serve the Landmark units and that these
units could not utilize the existing temporary system.
very truly yours,
ALEXANDER BOWIE

18 when added to the original Specific Plan, will not exceed the overall
19
density allowed by the Riverside County C?general Plan.

22
tion by about 30% over the levels anticipated with the oriqAnal Specific

@; 1 C. PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
2 As a vacation and retirement home development many of the impacts
3 on public services and facilities generated from the revised Specific Plan
4 are minimized. These include impacts and demands on schools, air uality,
5 water, sewer, police protection, and fire protection.
6 D. COMMUNITY DEVEL()P?ENT
7 Expanding on the existing resort hotel complex, the proposed
8 project closely compliments the existing development in the immediate area.
9 Significant open space areas are provided; including the maintenance of the
10 mountainous areas and in many areas are adjacent open space acreage golf
11 course) at the foot of the mountains. The open space, natural mountain
12 backdrop, and recreational facilities further enhance the existing resort
13 atmosphere of the La Quinta Hotel and La Quinta Country Club area.
14 WHEREAS, the matter was discussed fully with testimony and
15 documentation presented by the public, and various county, local and
16 state agencies, now therefore,
17 BE IT RESOLVED, DETERnINED, AND ORDERED by the La Quinta City
18 Council, State of California, in regular session assembled on October 5,
19 1982, that it makes the following findings and conclusions:
20 1. The original Specific Plan 121-E was approved and the associated
21 Final Environmental I?pact Report No. 41 was certified in April,
22 1975 by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors. The revised
23 Specific Plan 121-E would result in a develop?ient similar in
24 nature and scale to the original Specific Plan No. 121-F.
25 2. A large majority of the residents would utilize their dwellings
26 as a second or retirement home, which would result in minimal
27 impacts on the schools and the lack of a heavy concentration of
28 peak hour traffic to and from work.

@5;fl MEMORANDUM
CITY OF LA QUINTA
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Frank M. Usher, City Manager
Date: October 4, 1982
Subject: Internship Program, University of California, Riverside
I have discussed the possibility of obtaining an intern from UC-
Riverside with Professor Ron Loveridge, who is also a member of
the Riverside City Council. An intern from this program would be
available one day per week, without salary cost to the City. he
only cost involved would be reimbursement for auto expenses and, I
would suggest, a nominal expense reimbursement.
Ron has recommended a Senior student Kevin Carrigan, for this
position. I have talked with Kevin and I believe that he would
be an ideal person for this program. It would be my intention to
assign a specific project as his principle area of responsibility,
while providing an overall insight into City operation. The pro-
ject I have in mind for him would be basic groundwork necessarv for
annexation of additional area into the City of La Quinta.
The program is one academic quarter, ten weeks. Thetotal cost for
automobile expenses would be approximately $276 and the total cost
of expense reimbursement would be approximately $50, with a total
cost for the program of approximately $326.
I would respectfully recommend the appropriation of $400 for the
implementation of this program.

Hon. Fred Wolff, Mayor 3
and Council Members
City of La Quinta
P.C. Box 1504
La Quinta, CA 92253
Dear Mayor Wolff and Council Members:
On 3june 8, 1982 I sent you a letter on behalf of the SunLine Board of
Directors regarding the future funding of the SunLine Transit Agency.
Because the SunLine Board of Directors' agenda for September 22, 19S2
will include a recommendation addressing this issue, SunLine hopes your
input will be submitted for review prior to that time.
In addition to making the aforementioned request, this letter is to
advise you that the SunLine Board of Directors acted to approve your
community?s entry into the SunLine Transit Agency waiving the normal
requirement for new member agencies of a direct capital contribution of
$25,000. To encourage your participation, Riverside County has agreed
to underwrite the legally stipulated S25,000 capital amount predicated
on an understanding between the City of La Quinta and the County that
the $25,000 capital amount will not vest with you before a period of
two years has elapsed and an agreement that as SunLine receives capital
grant dollars, those dollars will be applied towards reimbursing the
County the $25,000 capital contribution before any of those funds are
credited to your community's capital account.
It is SunLine?s hope that you will participate in the agency and that
S
you will communicate your thoughts about the agency?s funding method.
Should this letter generate any questions or concerns, please feel free
to contact me at your convenience.
Sincerely,
T/NSITAG?NCY
Lee Norwine L.?
