This site is immediate to the City limits with the City of Indio. The property involved is that area between 111 and the Coachella Valley Water District Storm Drain Channel to the north. This project will provide approximately 217,000 sq. ft. of retail space with contingent parking and landscaping areas. 1.20.2 Project Objectives: This project has been developed to provide retail and commercial space that would be easily available to the majority of people in the eastern and middle Coachella Valley. The project should provide additional retail shopping facilities to the communities of Palm Desert, Bermuda Dunes, Indian Wells, La Quinta, Indio, Coachella and beyond. 1.20.3 Project Characteristics: Based on additional review a preliminary study of the Jefferson Plaza Project, the following conclusions are also drawn: 1. The site has an unencumbered direct access via Jefferson Ave., from Interstate 10 to Highway 111. 2. The project site is within the "High Power" development of the La Quinta/Highway 111 commercial corridor. 3. The subject parcel windows on both Highway 111 and Jefferson Ave., therefore drawing direct special advantages from both of these arteries. 4. Both the required zoning and general plan designation allow for this development on this site. 5. Review of the market of the area denotes great interest in the location (and re -location) of businesses to the "La Quinta Commercial Corridor". The site for the Jefferson Plaza places this project at an important crossroads of this "Commercial Corridor". 6. Circulation, Traffic Control and required Utility infrastructure are present at the site. 7. This project would place a commercial development of a viable size, which could be absorbed by the area market at the doorstep of the City of La Quinta, thus providing the opportunity for the City to additionally draw from the greater Indio Market Area with it's concentration of stable, year-round resident families. 1.20.4 Master Design Theme: The Jefferson Plaza has been designed in a contemporary desert architecture style using simplified colonnades with concrete tile roofs. Additional architectural elements such as textured finishes, formed cornices and accent reveals will be used to further enhance the buildings. The Garden Center will be surrounded by a fence composed of a low splitface CMU wall with split face columns supporting security mesh fencing fabric. The landscaped setbacks along Hwy 111 and Jefferson Street will contain meandering sidewalks with a variety of trees, shrubs and flowers. This, along with the parking lot landscaping should provide an inviting atmosphere for the center. October 1996 12790 001.2"1.9999.wPo.00 1 2.0 MASTER PLANS 2.10 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Jefferson Plaza is designed to provide approximately 217,000 square feet of retail commercial space, when complete. This plan , however, deals primarily with Phase I. Phase II is still in the development stage and exact particulars (such as number & SF of buildings) are unknown at this time. — The Phase 1 area consists of : The Home Depot at 105,700 square feet with a 24,102 square foot Outdoor Garden Center as the major anchor. The Phase II area will have various future retail tenants ranging in size from 2,600 square feet to 447000 square feet. _ The buildings will be built in phases as outlined below. The center shall include parking for approximately 1,146 cars including compact and handicap spaces. Jefferson Plaza will be developed in two phases, providing flexibility in the construction based on the demand created by the tenant/users. Each phase I could be built out alone or in conjunction with any other or all other phases. The +� completed center will provide a unified concept although each phase will be designed to stand on its own merit as the project is developed. Each phase to be developed a as follows: Phase 1 - +/- 129,800 SF Phase 2 - +/- 8-7,000 SF (only an approximation) 2.20 DEVELOPMENT PHASING PLAN 2.20.1 Description The Jefferson Plaza center is designed to be developed in a series of two phases. These phases are described as follows: Phase 1 Phase one of Jefferson Plaza is designed to be the focal point of the center. This phase would include two entrances off the Highway 111 into the main parking field and two entrances off of Jefferson street. The Home Depot building would serve as the major anchor tenant built in the contemporary desert architectural style with a large entry element and a colonnade extending to the west across the front of the building. On the Eastern side there will be an open air garden center surrounded by a fence composed of a low splitface CMU wall with split face columns supporting security mesh fencing fabric. Perimeter and parking lot landscaping will also be part of Phase I. October 1996 12790 001.2441 9999 WPD 00 Phase 2 Phase two of the project could be designed to include a major retail store with secondary stores on either side and possibly pad buildings in the main parking field. The facades of the Phase two building will be stepped or architecturally treated to visually individualize the tenant buildings. Also included would be a secondary access to 111, additional parking and landscaped parkway at the south (Highway 111) property line, and a continuation of a service access drive at the rear of the building(s). This service access will provide employee parking areas and truck service at rear of the property, linking Jefferson and 111 at the rear. 2.20.2 Grading 2.20.2.1 Undeveloped Land Graded, undeveloped land shall be maintained to prevent dust and blowsand nuisances. The land shall be planted with interim landscaping or provided with other wind and water erosion control measures approved by the Community Development and Public Works Departments. 2.20.2.2 Flood Protection The applicant shall comply with the City's Flood Protection Ordinance. 2.20.2.3 Geotechnical Report The applicant shall conduct a thorough preliminary geological and soils engineering investigation and shall submit the report of the investigation ("the soils report") with the grading plan. 2.20.2.4 Grading Plan A grading plan, which may be combined with the on-site paving and drainage plan, shall be prepared by a registered civil engineer and must meet the approval of the Public Works Director prior to issuance of a grading permit. The grading plan shall conform with the recommendations of the soils report and shall be certified as adequate by a soils engineer or an engineering geologist. 2.20.2.5 Pad Elevations Prior to construction of any building, the applicant shall provide a separate document, bearing the seal and signature of a California registered civil engineer or surveyor, that lists actual building pad elevations. The document shall list the pad elevation approved on the grading plan, the as -built elevation, and the difference between the two, if any. October 1996 12790 0012" 1 9999 WPO 00 Diamond Planters: Five feet square Finger Islands: Five feet wide Tree Size: All 36" box trees shall be a minimum or 4" in diameter as measured 12" from grade. The 36" box trees along the north property line shall be 25' on center. All 24" box trees shall be a minimum of 2-1/2" to 3" in diameter as measured 6" from grade. Irrigation: Landscape areas shall have permanent irrigation improvements meeting the requirements of the Public Works Director. Use of lawn shall be minimized with no lawn or spray irrigation within 5 -feet of curbs along public streets. Coordination: The applicant shall ensure that landscaping plans and utility plans are coordinated to provide visual screening of above -ground utility structures. Line of Sight: The northeast comer landscaping shall not exceed 30" in height within the line of sight. 2.90.1.4 Landscape Screening The drive through restaurant shown in Phase 2 shall be provided with screening by a combination of berms, walls, and landscaping so that the cars using the drive through facilities will not be visible by pedestrians and cars on the perimeter sidewalk and street as approved by the site development permit. Screening of parking lot surface shall be provided from all adjacent streets through use of berming, landscaping and/or short decorative walls, except the driveway view corridors. 2.90.2A Plant Palette and Landscape Plan (see accompanying exhibit) As depicted on exhibit 2.90.2A, the following materials may be utilized in the final landscape plan proposed for the project site. October 1996 12790.001.2441 9999. W PD.00 3.20.3.1 Parking Stall Size The City of La Quinta Zoning Code requires a 9 foot by 20 foot parking stall situated on a 26 foot aisle with a 90 degree parking angle. The applicant is proposing 9 foot by 19 foot parking stalls on 26 foot aisles with a 90 degree parking angle. In areas of overhanging conditions, a 9 foot by 17 foot stall is recommended. The deviation of one foot in the length of the parking stall will result in the more efficient use of the property while maintaining an efficient and safe circulation system. This design feature is based on the experience of the applicant through the construction and ongoing operation of over 400 stores. 3.20.3.2 Number of Parking Stalls Provided The number of parking spaces proposed for both the Home Depot and other retail uses is 1,146, exceeding the 770 spaces required by the City by 49 percent. With some 400 Home Depot facilities in operation, Home Depot is acutely aware of the particular and unique market conditions associated with their facilities. Based on this practical experience, the parking provided is necessary to serve the needs of the public and will remove the potential for any negative traffic and parking impacts to surrounding properties or public streets due to overflow parking conditions. 3.20.3.3 Percentage of Landscape Area Provided The increase in the number of parking spaces provided, as discussed above, has a direct impact to the amount of landscape area that can be provided on the project site. The design and materials proposed will ensure the desired effect of softening the visual impact of the development while establishing a high quality and visually pleasing environment. The parking field meets the City's requirement of 5 percent minimum landscape coverage. See exhibit 2.90.2.A "Landscape Plan" for tabulation of area. Additionally, the overall site including the public parkway provides 12.6 percent of landscaped coverage. 3.20.4 Permitted Uses Regional Commercial: • Retail stores under 10,000 sq./ft. floor area per business • Retail stores', 10,000-50,000 sq./ft. floor area • Retail stores', over 50,000 sq./ft. floor area • Food, liquor, and convenience stores under 10,000 sq./ft. floor area, open less than 18 hours/day2 • Food, liquor, and convenience stores under 10,000 sq./ft. floor area, open 18 or more hours/day2 • Plant nurseries and garden supply stores, with no propagation of plants on the premises, subject to §9.100.120 (Outdoor Storage and Display).

October 1996 12790 001 2441 9999 WPD 00 RESOLUTION 96-72 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A SPECIFIC PLAN TO ALLOW 218,300 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL CENTER AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF HIGHWAY 111 AND JEFFERSON STREET CASE NO. SPECIFIC PLAN 96-027 HOME DEPOT, USA, INC. WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of La Quinta, California, did on the 17th day of September, 1996, hold a duly noticed Public Hearing to consider the request of Home Depot, USA, Inc. for a 218,300 square foot retail center in the C -P -S Zone on a 20 t acre site, more particularly described as: APN: 649-020-022 and 649-020-023 WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta, California, did on the 23rd day of July, 1996, and the 13th day of August, 1996, hold duly noticed Public Hearings to consider the request of Home Depot, USA, Inc. for a 218,300 square foot retail center in the C -P -S (CR) Zone on a 20± acre site; and, WHEREAS, said Specific Plan request has complied with the requirements of "The Rules to Implement the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970" as amended by Resolution 83-68, in that a Mitigated Negative Declaration has been recommended for certification; .and, WHEREAS, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any of all interested persons desiring to be heard, said City Council did find the following facts, findings, and reasons to justify approval of said Specific Plan: The General Plan Land Use Element designates this site as Mixed Regional Commercial with a non-residential overlay. Land Use Element Policy 2-3.1 provides for primary uses being major retail businesses with ancillary uses including other commercial uses. Both Highway 1 1 1 and Jefferson Street are primary image corridors as identified in the Circulation Element of the General Plan. Each will have street improvements, raised, landscaped medians and heavily landscaped areas within and contiguous to the street rights of way consistent with design guidelines of Policy 3-4.1.2. The resocc.162 Resolution 96-72 Page 2 intersection of these two streets is also identified in the General Plan as a primary gateway leading into the City, Policy 3-4.1.8. As conditioned an easement will be granted to the City to install the City "Entry Sign" in compliance with this policy. Under Policy 3-4.1.11, well designed landscape setbacks are encouraged to ensure a high quality and attractive streetscape. The combined right-of-way and on-site Highway 111 landscape setback is 34 feet, where 50 feet is generally recommended. Varied landscape setbacks are being allowed because of Home Depot's need for more parking spaces than required by the Zoning Code parking standards. As a Major Arterial, Jefferson Street has a generally recommended landscape setback of 20 feet. Both landscape setbacks meet the intent of this policy. Policy 3.3.1.3 specifies that driveways along both Highway 111 and Jefferson Street shall be located a minimum of 250 feet from the ends of the curb returns. As conditioned this policy shall be met. Lastly, Policy 3-2.1.6 references Table CIR-2, La Quinta Roadway Design Standards, that specifies the minimum intersection spacing allowed is 2,600 feet. Because of the need to better accommodate commercial uses in addition to maximizing the number of users benefitting from a full turn signal on Highway 1 1 1, staff with approval from Caltrans has reduced the distance to 1,300 feet. In accordance with the Air Quality Element of the General Plan, the applicant submitted an air quality analysis (Policy 9-2.1.1). The study addressed the circulation layout to ensure its minimization of on-site traffic conflicts and reduction of air quality impacts, The proposed project uses will not create any conditions which are materially detrimental to the public health, safety, and general welfare of the City's citizens. The project design along with the recommended conditions will assure this by requiring shielded lighting, additional landscaping, buffering, architectural treatment, traffic and street improvements. The Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact recommended for certification indicates that no detrimental impacts will occur. The subject property as well as property to the south, west and partially to the east are zoned for commercial uses. To the north is the Whitewater Storm Channel which provides a buffer from the residentially -zoned properties beyond the Channel. resocc.162 Resolution 96-72 Page 3 Therefore, development of the subject property, as conditioned will be compatible with surrounding properties. Property Suitability The property is suitable for commercial development in that as conditioned the existing infrastructure facilities can be incorporated into this project and public services will be adequately addressed. The proposed architectural design recognizes the functional design requirements imposed by this large scale building. Though it is a contemporary tilt -up concrete structure, design elements in keeping with the desert environment and Mediterranean period are proposed such as, muted earth tone colors, arched entry, tiled arcade and columns. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La Quinta, California, as follows: 1. That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute the findings of the City Council in this case; 2. That the City Council does hereby approve Specific Plan 96-027, subject to the attached conditions, labeled Exhibit 'A'.

The proposed Specific Plan and Conditional Use Permit does not have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife population to drop below self sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of rare or endangered plants or animals or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory, due to the lack of any such factors existing on the shopping center site. 3. The proposed Specific Plan and Conditional Use Permit does not have the potential to achieve short-term environmental goals, to the disadvantage of long-term environmental goals, in that development of the project will provide more efficient and safe area circulation patterns and achieve land use development as set forth in the General Plan, without significantly impacting public service and utility provisions or substantially degrading the physical environment, provided that mitigation measures are imposed on the project. 4. The proposed Specific Plan and Conditional Use Permit will not result in impacts which are individually limited or cumulatively considerable when considering planned or proposed development in the immediate vicinity, as the General Plan EIR considered these impacts, adopted mitigating measures. and identified impacts which could not be fully mitigated through a Statement of Overriding Considerations. 5. The proposed Specific Plan and Conditional Use Permit will not have environmental effects that will adversely affect the human population, either directly or indirectly, in that the proposed development is consistent with the designated land use and policy guidance adopted for the La Quinta General Plan, for which -mitigation measures were adopted to assure that future development in accordance with said Plan would not have detrimental effects on the environment beyond those identified in the Statement of Overriding Considerations adopted for the La Quinta General Plan.
