S c Plan 2001-055 Amendment No. 1 Resolution No. 2003-035 Adopted June 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Introduction & Purpose The Centerpoint Project Specific Plan is an amendment to a previously adopted Specific Plan that established the philosophy and guidelines for the development of the property located at the southeast corner of Miles Avenue and Washington Street in the City of La Quinta. The guidelines presented within this document are in accordance with the adopted plan and the City's Zoning Code and General Plan. The guidelines reflect the quality and design desired at the site and conforms to the City's overall goal of preserving, maintaining and enhancing the high quality of life La Quinta residents enjoy. Although the Plan is designed to ensure the quality of the development, it also provides a degree of flexibility to allow future development to respond to the changes in society and the economic marketplace of the region which will inevitably occur over the build out period. In cases where the zoning and development regulations are nonspecific within the document, the zoning and development is guided by the City of La Quinta Zoning ordinance in effect at the time. Enabling Legislation • The authority to prepare, adopt, and implement a Specific Plan is granted to the City of La Quinta by the California Government Code (Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 8, and Sections 65450 through 65457). As with General Plans, the Planning Commission must hold a public hearing before it can recommend to the City Council the adoption of a Specific Plan or an amendment thereto. The City Council of La Quinta may adopt a Specific Plan and/or amendment to the Specific Plan by either ordinance or resolution. The Specific Plan is a regulatory document that, once adopted, will amend the Zoning Ordinance, and serve as the Development Code for the Development Site. Upon completion of the Specific Plan adoption process, future development must be consistent with the Specific Plan and amendments thereto.

As the gateway to the City of La Quinta, the architectural and landscape design of the site will be developed to enhance the qualities of the City. The intersection of Miles and Washington, due to its prominent location, will be enhanced with landscaping and monumentation to create a sense of arrival to the site. Landscaping along the streets will respond to the existing boulevard character. A landscape buffer will be designed to mitigate traffic noise and will be oriented to preserve views of distant mountains. Sloping berms at a maximum height of 4' from curb height will be planted in layers to restrict the views of parking areas from surrounding streets. Seeley Drive will have a landscaped median and parkways throughout the project. The broad, pedestrian -scaled character of the street will run through the site, and will feed into turnarounds at the resort and restaurants. In the residential area, sidewalks behind parkway planting will provide access to the neighborhood park. The pedestrian -accessible park will serve as green space for the residents. Architectural Character The buildings constructed on the sits: should maintain a consistent theme carried out by quality materials and imaginative design consistent with the existing character of La Quinta. Building design shall be unique to the site in that the configuration should take advantage of and preserve surrounding vistas. Additional reference material is provided in Exhibit C of this document. Other salient characteristics of the architectural character are: PAGE 12 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA • The use of simple plaster masses with deep punched openings, arched entryways, and shading elements. • Horizontal and vertical building offsets to create articulated breaks and visual relief. • Wood detailing, tile work and vivid colors at key places along broad plaster masses. • Building integration with indigenous landscaping, such that the architecture appears as an extension and outgrowth of the landscape. • Strategic orientation and configuration of buildings and shading elements to passively heat and cool spaces. • False roofs are prohibited. Flat roofs may be used in combination with other roof forms. The simple yet strong architectural vocabulary for the development should rely on strategically placed key details and the careful selection of landscape materials. The details employed include arcades, balconies deeply recessed openings, low walls, wood detailing and awnings. Resort Uses • The following architectural elements should be incorporated in order to increase building articulation and reduce the scale of the three-story hotels: o Elements such as awnings, balconies roof overhangs, or trellises that protrude from building elevations. o Varying roof plate heights that create a layered or staggered roofline. o Elements such as arcades or balconies that "step" in plan and elevation, creating shadow and depth. • Entries should be articulated with larger openings in the facade, richer building materials and colors, and arcades or portals. • Entry plazas and courtyards should include shading elements such as trellises and landscaping. PAGE 13 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Residential Uses The design of the residential component shall incorporate elements that respond to the climate of La Quinta. Such design features include patios, balconies, courtyards, arcades, plazas and paseos. Extended roof overhangs shall be incorporated into building design to provide additional shade. Overall design of the residential component shall incorporate the following guidelines: • Architectural design shall be unique in character, but consistent with surrounding area. • Orientation of structures should consider the climate of the area. • Housing edges should maximize view potential and access to natural open areas. • Porches and balconies should be designed to promote social interaction among community residents and should be an integral component of the buildings architectural style. • Mechanical elements of the building shall be screened from view by walls, fences or landscaping. • Varying house configurations is encouraged to promote variety in the street scene. • Encourage the use of curvilinear streets. Landscape Overall development identity and character is defined and enhanced by the continuity of landscape materials along publicly visible areas. Individual parcel identity can be established through variations in landscaping at major entry points, along smaller streets within the development, and within individual parcel open space areas. The HOA shall maintain all common area landscaping in perpetuity. Exhibits D 1-6 provide general guidance for the development of a final landscape plan for the development. PAGE 14 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Landscape Concept The landscape architectural theme for the development is to create an identifiable "signature" landscape character for the development. Landscaping is subject to the City of La Quinta water efficient landscape ordinance. Additional guidelines within this document are intended to achieve the following goals: • Create a signature landscape theme defining the character of La Quinta • Enhance major views by landscape treatment • Utilize drought tolerant landscape • Create hierarchy of theme signage from monumental entrance to individual parcel identity • Create focal points • Utilize tree massing to screen the rear and sides of outdoor service uses (i.e. trash enclosures, etc) • Strategic clusters of dense landscaping to serve as wind barriers The landscape concept shall consist of three zones to maximize water efficiency as well as to keep maintenance at a minimum. The three zones are as follows: • Water Efficient `Drip Zone' — These areas will receive the least amount of use (e.g., median islands, parking islands, etc.). Plantings in this zone will consist of drought tolerant low shrubs, ground covers and desert trees. Crushed 'fines' rock and large boulders can be used in addition to ground covers. The irrigation system will be drip. (See Exhibit D-1) • Transitional Landscape Zone — These areas will bridge the gap between zone 1 and zone 3 and generally be seen along the street frontages. Medium shrubs, canopy trees and a limited amount of turf will be used. Turf areas should be irrigated with short fiat spray heads that have short radii to reduce the amount of over spray and resulting damage to adjacent hardscape. (See Exhibit D-1) • Building Entry Zone — These areas will be located at building entries, courtyards or other recreational facilities that will receive maximum use. Ground covers, shrubs and trees with more abundant foliage will be used to create a cooler, quieter environment for the users of these spaces. (See Exhibit D-1) PAGE 15 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Streetscape Concept The streetscape concept is the primary landscape influence for the development and is intended to unify the development. The streetscape components consist of meandering sidewalks, identifying street tree patterns, and a bermed edge accented with shrubs, ground covers and rock. Turf areas will be located at intersections where ample space is provided. Shrubs will be used as a screen where necessary. Root barriers for trees shall be used for any tree that is located closer than 6' from adjacent hardscape. Washin ton Street and Miles Avenue Tree Design The dominant tree along Miles Avenue shall be Prosopis Alba (Thornless Mesquite) planted in informal clusters to follow the meandering walk approximately 50 ft. intervals. The trees should be accented by clusters of Washingtonia filifera (California Fan Palm). Phoenix dactylifera (Date Palm) should be incorporated at significant development entry drives. Washingtonia robusta (Mexican Fan Palm) can be used outside right-of- ways to accentuate buildings or other site enhancements. Landscape lighting may occur at specimen plants or to accent clusters. Seeley Drive Tree Design Seeley Drive should be planted with Tipuana Tipu (Tipu Tree) to lineate the road. Washingtonia filifera (California Fan Palm) shall be used to accent major parcel entries. Significant specimen plants will be accented with uplighting. To supplement this pattern, other species of trees can be used on site. Please refer to the plant palette (See Exhibit E). Development Entries at Washington Street and Miles Avenue Development entries at Washington Street and Miles Avenue shall continue the Phoenix dactylifera (Date Palm) theme from the development entries as mentioned above. Phoenix dactylifera (Date Palm) shall be spaced formally at 25' intervals along the center median. Along either side of the street, Phoenix dactylifera (Date Palm) will occur at 25' intervals and be placed to follow the contour of the meandering sidewalk. (See Exhibit D-2, 3). PAGE 16 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Parking Areas Parking area landscaping shall be designed to accomplish the following: Provide shading • Serve as a visual barrier from Miles Avenue, Washington Street and Seeley Drive. Landscaped islands shall be provided at the ends of stall rows to break up parking areas by creating a series of smaller parking pockets. Parking pockets shall be distributed at a minimum of one per 10 parking stalls and should provide a minimum of 10' landscaped width to allow planting and mounding. The landscaped islands shall be a minimum of 9' wide providing a minimum of 6' wide landscape space. Islands shall contain large canopy trees to provide shade. Parking lots shall have 24" box trees (2"-3" Caliper) whose placement shall be such that the mature tree spread will shade fifty percent (50%) of the parking stall area with tree canopies within 15 years. Along Miles Avenue and Washington Street, parking must be screened with a block wall and/or berm (3:1 slope maximum, height of 4' from curb height) with adequate landscaping planted between the property line and the paved parking areas. Shrubs should partially screen cars and aisles, transforming vast parking lots into a series of smaller alcoves. (See Exhibit D-5). Minimum Landscaping Guidelines These development regulations are meant to meet the City of La Quinta water efficient landscape ordinance and to define an appropriate plant palette that will reinforce the unique identity of the development, yet provide flexibility and diversity in planting design. • A limited selection of plant materials used in simple, significant compositions is encouraged. Planting design should be compatible with and compliment adjacent plantings, reinforcing and enhancing the individual architecture and design of the site. The materials on the Plant Palette (See Exhibit E) have been selected for their contribution to the development theme, their adaptability to climatic and soil conditions and with respect for long term cost effective maintenance. PAGE 17 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA • Detailed landscape and irrigation plans a landscape architect licensed in the State individual component of the development. are to be submitted to the City for review. to be served by a permanent automatic system. Art in Public Places re to be prepared by a of California for each The landscape plans All landscape areas are underground irrigation Fees generated for the development of this site shall be utilized to provide public art in Land Use Area I and IV. In lieu fees will not serve as a substitute for public art. Sustainability Guidelines In response to the recent California energy crisis the City is taking a proactive role in development by ensuring that energy efficiency standards will be incorporated into this Specific Plan. An energy efficiency plan shall be submitted to the City for approval and shall include the following aspects: orientation, shading, solar paneling and energy efficient products. PAGE 18 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Circulation The circulation system for the Specific Plan conforms to the requirements of the City of La Quinta General Plan — Circulation element by providing a hierarchy of vehicular traffic -ways with pedestrian -ways segregated within the plan area. A detailed discussion of the technical issues of traffic impact analysis is presented in a site specific report prepared by Urban Crossroads. The following guidelines shall be implemented to provide a hierarchy of travel options to residents and guests within the development: • Construct internal roadways that provide a safe route for development ingress and egress to both commercial and residential areas. • Construct bike paths connecting with the system of bike paths outside the development area consistent with the architectural theme and landscape character. • Construct pedestrian meandering walkways connecting commercial, residential areas with surrounding sidewalks. Walkways shall blend with the surrounding landscape character and provide interconnectivity within the development. Off -Site Improvements • The development shall contribute towards a citywide roadway and traffic signal improvement program as a result of infrastructure development fees for the City of La Quinta. These fees shall be paid at the building permit stage of development. • The Public Works Department shall consider the option to install a left turn pocket for southbound Seeley Drive, north of Miles Avenue. PAGE 19 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA On -Site Improvements • Construct Seeley Drive from Washington Street to Miles Avenue at its ultimate width as a local street in conjunction with development. • Sight distance at the development entrance should be reviewed with respect to standard Caltrans/City of La Quinta sight distance standards at the time of preparation of final grading, landscape and street improvement plans. • Traffic signaling/striping at Miles Avenue and Seeley Drive should be implemented when warranted in conjunction with detailed construction plans for the development site and shall be financed 100% by resort developer. Grading Plan Exhibit F depicts the Preliminary Grading Plan for the development. The grading plan identifies proposed land uses within the site boundary, preliminary pad locations, elevations, contours, and drainage facilities. It is intended to convey the potential to develop buildable parcels on the subject property, based on a conceptual site plan. It may also be used as a guide for the development of a rough grading plan. The existing terrain consists of small, undulating sand dunes. The elevation difference from the high point (intersection of Washington and Miles) to the low point (C.V.W.D. access road along the Coachella Valley Stormwater Channel) is approximately forty-two feet. Landscape setbacks and graded slopes will be required along both Washington Street and Miles Avenue (refer to development standards). It is anticipated that the site will be rough -graded in one operation, with extensive export operations required. Street Cross Sections are shown in Exhibit G. Wind & Erosion Control The Coachella Valley experiences periods of moderate to high wind conditions. Therefore, wind blown dust and sand are a concern during local grading operations. The South Coast Air Quality Management District and the Environmental Protection Agency have instituted a plan in the Coachella Valley to reduce excess PM 10 (small particle dust). These provisions must be adhered to during grading operations. PAGE 20 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA SWPPP/NPDES/PM10 The provisions of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) apply to construction projects over 5 acres in size. The development will require a Notice of Intent (NOI) and NPDES permit containing a Best Management Practices Plan to be filed/prepared. Furthermore, a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) must also be prepared for the development and submitted to the City of La Quinta. Drainage and Flood Control The drainage concept plan for the site is shown on the grading concept in Exhibit F. The following guidelines shall be used to implement a sufficient drainage and flood control plan. The drainage plan proposes to collect and convey storm flows via a piped storm drain system to the Coachella Valley Stormwater Channel. This system would be installed in phases starting with the northerly portion of the site (hotel and casitas) including facilities contained within Seeley Drive. If the plans for the remainder of the property (medical office building, residential and boutique hotel) are advanced to the point of knowing where the storm drain(s) would be located, then the entire system may be installed with phase one. if the detailed plans are still undergoing refinement, then one or more temporary retention basins may be installed to collect the stormwater until those phases are constructed. A feature of the grading and drainage design will be an overflow channel in the event that the storm drains become inoperative. A requirement with the storm drain system will be an intercept to collect nuisance water such as a dry well or sand filter system. With the drywells or alternative intercepts sized appropriately, this type of system eliminates nuisance flow discharges to the channel, provides an emergency overflow through the channel wall and eliminates surface runoff over the channel wall. Due to the phasing of the development, reciprocal drainage agreements may be necessary. PAGE 21 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Utilities The infrastructure that will serve the development is described below and is designed to provide a coordinated system of infrastructure and public services to adequately serve the plan area at full build out. The infrastructure and utilities plan identifies standards relative to land use for the plan area and establishes the infrastructure and public service policies. Sewer Plan The development is located within the jurisdiction of the Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) for sewer service. As shown in Exhibit H, an existing 18 -inch sewer main is located along the CVWD channel access road, to the south of the development. Preliminary discussions with CVWD have indicated that two connections to this existing District facility are appropriate. One sewer service will connect to an existing manhole near the southwest corner of the development (near the intersection of Washington Street and the Coachella Valley Stormwater Channel) and extend northward along Washington Street to future Seeley Drive. This line will extend up Seeley and provide service for the proposed restaurant, commercial, hotel, and townhouse developments. The second sewer service will connect to an existing manhole near the southeast corner of the development. This service will extend on site and be used for future single-family residential development. Water Plan The development is located within the jurisdiction of the Coachella Valley Water District for water service. As shown in Exhibit I, existing 18 -inch water stubs are located at both ends of future Seeley Drive. Preliminary discussions with CVWD have indicated that the developer would be required to complete this 18 -inch loop. On-site domestic, irrigation, and fire flow water would be provided from the proposed 18 -inch pipe. Electrical Plan Electric service is provided to the site by the Imperial Irrigation District (IID). A preliminary discussion with IID has indicated that electrical facilities are located on the south side of Miles Avenue and the east side of Washington Street. Further discussion with IID will be necessary to identify the exact location of these facilities. Service to the development is assumed to be routine. PAGE 22 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Other Utilities Natural Gas - Natural gas service is provided to the site by the Southern California Gas Company. Based on "as -built" plans, an existing gas main has been identified in Washington Street, adjacent to the site. Further discussion with the Gas Company and a field investigation are recommended to determine the exact location of the pipe. Service to the development is assumed to be routine. However, some cutting and removal/reconstruction of pavement and curb will be required. Telephone - Telephone service will be provided to the development by Verizon. Based on "as -built" plans, existing telephone facilities have been identified in both Washington Street and Miles Avenue. Further discussion with Verizon will be necessary to accurately locate these facilities and determine the preferred connection points. Service to the development is assumed to be routine. It is likely that some cutting and removal/reconstruction of pavement and curb will be required. Cable Television - Cable Television service will be provided to the site by Time Warner. Based on correspondence with the cable company, empty conduits exist along the south side of Miles Avenue and the east side of Washington Street. The exact location of these conduits is not known. Further discussion with the cable company will be necessary to determine if extension of existing cable lines to serve the development is feasible. PAGE 23 AS ADOPTED JUNE 3, 2003 THE CENTERPOINT PROJECT SPECIFIC PLAN CITY OF LA QUINTA Phasing The following diagram illustrates the phasing schedule for the development. Hotel, condominium/casitas and open space uses shall be constructed within the first phase of development. The second phase shall consist of medical and residential uses. The restaurant uses will comprise the third phase and a boutique hotel in the fourth and final phase. The developer may determine construction phase within each of these components.
