CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 2
The following citizens, listed in alphabetical order, provided WRITTEN PUBLIC
COMMENTS, including any received prior to the adjournment of the meeting at
11:08 p.m., which have been distributed to Council, made publicly available, and
incorporated into the agenda packet:
1. Gotshalk, Arlene (La Quinta) – requests Chapter 3.25 Ordinance
amendments.
2. Storbo, Dick (La Quinta) - requests Chapter 3.25 STVR Ordinance
amendments.
PUBLIC SPEAKER VIA TELECONFERENCE ACCESSIBILITY:
1. Gotshalk, Arlene (La Quinta) – opposes the separate category for
primary residences used as STVRs due to enforcement problems that
will arise and multiple ways of evasion; opposes the enforcement
language in the Ordinance as it is not definitive; opposes the
consequences for “two strikes” in the Ordinance because it is unclear,
without teeth and arbitrary, and; requests that owners with two strikes
be permanently banned from the program – the same consequence as
those operating without a permit.
At the request of Council, Code Compliance/Animal Control Supervisor
Meredith and City Attorney Ihrke explained the purpose of the enforcement
language in Ordinance No 590 being necessary due to the differing
circumstances of STVR complaints and violations.
Council explained the reasoning for designating a separate permit type for
primary residences; not placing a limit on bookings per year; expectation that
attrition will occur if the moratorium remains in place; and; that during the
permit renewal process, all citations and violations issued to the owner are
taken into consideration.
MOTION – A motion was made and seconded by Councilmembers Fitzpatrick/
Radi to approve Consent Calendar Item Nos. 2-8 and 11-13 as recommended,

PUBLIC SPEAKERS VIA TELECONFERENCE ACCESSIBILITY:
1. Gaeta-Mejia, Veronica, Chair of the La Quinta Housing Commission –
explained that she was the dissenting vote on the Commission to
allocate additional funding to CVAG rather than just Martha’s Village and
Kitchen and Coachella Valley Rescue Mission, because CVAG funds are
applied valley wide and not for La Quinta directly.
2. Barrack, Linda, CEO and President, Martha’s Village and Kitchen (MVK)
– explained the increased meals and housing placements provided by
the organization during the pandemic; distribution of masks and

employment-ready; found jobs for 291 clients; had to close the Thrift
Store and discontinue on site AA and NA meetings, but set up Zoom

Store next to the Mission to provide job training and clothing to the
neighborhood.
Authority Members discussed their gratitude for the organizations providing
services to prevent and reverse homelessness; thankfulness that La Quinta is
financially able to contribute funding; the insignificance of city boundaries
when tackling homelessness; the effectiveness of pooling funds and
maximizing dollars by joining forces; helping people thrive strengthens all
communities and is a human duty; reliance on expertise of CVAG, MVK, and
CVRM; desire to continue to be a regional example; and the City’s plans to
address affordable housing and explore collaboration on this issue too.
MOTION – A motion was made and seconded by Chairperson Fitzpatrick/
Authority Member Radi to adjust budget appropriations from Low-Mod
Housing Authority funds, for a total allocation of $300,000 to provide

FREQUENTLY-ASKED-QUESTIONS FOR PLACEMENT ON THE
CITY’S AFFORDABLE HOUSING WEBSITE PAGE
Housing Specialist Kinley presented the staff report, which is on file in the City
Clerk’s Office.
Housing Authority Counsel Ihrke explained that State law is not definitive
regarding whether a “qualified permanent resident” in a senior housing unit
can be a rent-paying roommate; and that the law has been interpreted to
mean that a “qualified permanent resident” is a spouse or family member
versus a paid caretaker.
Housing Authority Consultant Becky Caha via ZOOM, stated that State law
may be vague by design given discrimination and complexity of housing
matters; the definition of economic support is entirely a policy decision for the
Housing Authority; historically, owners take roommates to help them
financially and for general safety to continue living independently; the deed
restriction, which last for 45 years from the unit’s first purchase, and the
CC&Rs, which are forever unless amended, contain the 55+ age restriction;
children inheriting such units must resell it if they are not age 55+; new buyers
are subject to a one-time income certification at purchase; at the end of the
45-year covenant (and 30-year covenant under the earlier program), Housing
Authority financial assistance is forgiven and the affordability restriction is
lifted; the restrictions are different for affordable rentals; and should the
Housing Authority adopt a policy that roommates must meet the same income
restriction as owners, she recommends for privacy reasons, that HA staff
certify roommates’ income and verify that an appropriate lease is in place,
rather than the HOA performing these tasks.
Authority Members discussed enacting a policy requiring roommates to be
income certified every year; and providing clear information to owners that
any roommate becomes a tenant, they become a landlord, and all tenant
protections under California law would apply.
WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS were received from the following prior to the
adjournment of the meeting at 11:08 p.m., including those received during

21. Heylman, Sydney (La Quinta) – requests lifting the moratorium on new
STVRs.
PUBLIC SPEAKERS VIA TELECONFERENCE ACCESSIBILITY listed in the order
in which they spoke:
1. Tamm, Jalena (La Quinta/Newport Beach) – opposes a permanent
moratorium as just a means to phase out STVRs; believes continuing
the moratorium is unjustified because the justification used to originally
enact it was the State’s stay-at-home orders; since stay-at-home orders
are lifted, the moratorium should also be lifted; and HOAs with CC&Rs
permitting STVRs should not be included in any extension of the
moratorium.
2. Gotshalk, Arlene (La Quinta Cove) – full time resident; permanent
moratorium is not related to the pandemic but in response to the STVR
Program Ad-Hoc Committee’s and residents’ input; the 670 outside
investors operating STVRs want to determine the fate of thousands of
permanent residents; residents speaking against STVRs at public
meetings has consistently been in the 75% range; listed the reasons
20
MINUTES Page 15 of 17 MARCH 16, 2021
JOINT CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING & HOUSING AUTHORITY SPECIAL MEETING
residents oppose STVRs; and supports a permanent moratorium on
unsupervised STVRs in residential neighborhoods.
Council discussed bans enacted by many other California cities; middle ground
seeming to be a permanent moratorium on general STVRs; from public input,
it’s apparent that current numbers of general STVRs are at over-capacity;
should the Council do nothing, there will be a ballot measure on STVRs;
excluding HOAs, Tourist Commercial (TC), and Village Commercial (VC) zones
from a moratorium extension; extending the moratorium versus a stay on new
permits, and the timing and legal definitions of each; collecting data post-
pandemic to pinpoint problems under normal conditions; allowing recent
changes to the program, i.e., new fees, fines, and other provisions to take
effect then reevaluating; fairness of lifting the moratorium for some types,
such as primary residences, but not others; both full-time and part-time
residents are not at property during a STVR, so singling out only part-time
residents for a stay on new permits is not consistent; difference in disruption
between home-based businesses and STVR businesses; need for a definitive
decision so home sellers/buyers can evaluate when to sell, where to buy, and
affordability with/without STVR option; recommendation of N4N group to
place a 3% cap on STVRs, not a ban; a moratorium extension or a stay would
have no effect on existing good operators; pros and cons of placing a “sunset”
date or “sunset” conditions/triggers on a moratorium/stay; pros and cons of
competition between STVRs in residential zones and TC zones; goal to stop
growth and preserve the program; 418 general STVR permits in the Cove and
North La Quinta – data on these is needed so good operators can be
preserved; timing of lifting the local emergency declaration and related
Executive Orders; and the possibility of including a quarterly review if a stay
is enacted by ordinance.
Council gave direction to Staff to (1) research the accuracy of the TC zone
within Rancho La Quinta noted on the Power Point map; (2) breakdown the
data on citations/code actions further to show the number of unpermitted,
number of repeat offenders, and number permanently suspended from the
program; and (3) prepare an Ordinance imposing a stay on the issuance of all
types of new STVR permits in residential zones with no sunset date or triggers,
exempting (a) TC and VC zones, (b) communities governed by an HOA and
CC&Rs, and (c) communities governed by a Development Agreement that
permits STVRs.

HOUSING AUTHORITY
2021/22 PROPOSED BUDGET
The budget provides resources for the evaluation of future affordable housing projects
and programs, ongoing operational needs and property maintenance, as well as legal
and auditing services as required by the Housing Authority.
The summary is designed to provide an overview of the Housing Authority Funds. Line
item details for revenues and expenses are located in Exhibit A of the attachment.
The impacts of COVID-19 have continued to rapidly evolve and while negative
consequences of the pandemic have been felt, the recovery phase is on the horizon.
Despite the effects of the pandemic and facing financial uncertainty, the City and
Authority have been prudent in their use of revenues, leveraging other resources for
affordable housing projects, establishing effective external partnerships, and utilizing
long-term financial planning.
The 2021/22 Authority budget has three active funds restricted to housing operations.
Estimated Fund Balance, revenues, and expenditures for each fund are summarized
below:
REVENUES
When all funds are combined, there is a 48% decrease in revenues from the current
2020/21 budget to the proposed 2021/22 budget which is due to the one-time land
purchase by the City on Dune Palms.
The RDA Low-Mod Housing Fund recognizes the annual loan repayment from the Last
and Final Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) for the Successor Agency
(former Redevelopment Agency). For 2021/22 the total loan repayment is $3,303,610,
which is allocated 80% to the General Fund ($2,642,888) and 20% ($660,722) to the
Housing Authority Fund. Any portion of the Housing Authority portion revenue not
expended, will be recognized in reserves in Fund 243. The final loan repayment is

scheduled for fiscal year 2029/30. Remaining outstanding loan repayments after
2021/22 total $28,486,493 of which $5,697,299 will be allocated to the Housing
Authority.
EXPENSES
The operating Housing Authority Fund (241) has an overall estimated increase of
21% and is comprised of the following:
• Salary and benefit increase of $18,200 resulting from recent salary negotiations
and benefits
• Professional services and attorney fees decease of ($97,700) to account for
reduced activity for housing compliance services and legal fees
• Internal service charges increase of $3,200 due to anticipated increase in
insurance premiums
• No additional transfers out proposed in FY 2021/22
In addition to the expenses above, as part of the acquisition of the Dune Palms Mobile
Estates Park, the Housing Authority assumed the contract for the current property
management firm in a commitment for a seamless transition for park residents. The
budget includes $273,000 to account for residential property management services and
rental expenses. In addition, $500,000 is requested to allow for building and site
improvements.
For RDA Low-Mod Housing Fund (243), revenues received from loan repayments
discussed above have been used for homelessness programs as approved by the
Authority each fiscal year. The proposed budget for 2021/22 homelessness programs is
$250,000.
The SA 2011 Low/Mod Bond (249) is anticipated to have a balance of $11.1 million
on June 30, 2021 and a $20,000 budget for 2021/22 provides for the ability to evaluate
future affordable housing projects and programs. The decrease in this fund is due to
the purchase of the Dune Palms Mobile Home Estates Park in FY 2020/21.
