PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
DATE: AUGUST 4, 1987
PROJECT PROPOSAL: ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 87-003
NEW CITY SIGN REGULATIONS
APPLICANT: CITY OF LA QUINTA
LOCATION: CITY-WIDE
ENVIRONMENTAL
CONSIDERATION: An Environmental Assessment has been prepared
as required by the California Environmental
Quality Act CEQA). The initial study
evaluation has determined that the amendment
will not present a significant adverse impact
and a Negative Declaration has been prepared.
BACKGROUND:
Currently, the City is using the 1982 edition of the County Zoning
Regulations Ord. *348) which became effective August 29, 1982, with
the adoption of City Ordinance No. 5. Advertising sign) regulations
are found in Chapter 9.212 of the La Quinta Municipal Code. The
existing advertising regulations have four major components: Outdoor
Advertising Display; On-Site Advertising Structure and Signs; For
Sale, Lease or Rent Signs; and Subdivision Signs. The subject
Ordinance provides a comprehensive revision of those regulations
based on the specific desires and needs of the City of La Quinta.
GENERAL PLAN
The recently adopted General Plan necessitates the preparation of a
new Zoning Ordinance. One major component of the Zoning Ordinance is
the regulation of signs. The proposed sign regulations seek to
specifically implement sign-related policies of the General Plan,
among which are:
CULTURAL RESOURCES ELEMENT Scenic Highways/Vistas
Policy 5.2.4 Prevention of visual blight shall be enhanced by
addition of a comprehensive sign ordinance.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ELEMENT village Commercial
Policy 6.3.5 The City shall prepare and adopt a Specific Plan
for the village at La Quinta area as soon as
possible with specific design standards, including
landscaping, signing, building architecture and
streetscape criteria.
COMPARISON WITH OTHER CITIES
Prior to the preparation of draft sign regulations, contact was made
with Chamber of Commerce committee members and City Council member
liaison, existing City ordinances, ordinances from other
cities/counties, industry literature and other planning-oriented
professional publications were reviewed.
The sign regulations for cities within the Valley appear to be
similar, in that the approach is to provide for integrated
project/sign development. Each city regulates the amount of signage
slightly differently, depending, presumably, upon the image to be
achieved. The level of signing provided in the proposed regulations
compares favorably with other cities, with the added flexibility of
Commission discretion when considering new development and special
installations.
ANALYSIS
1. The draft regulations incorporate the policies of the General
Plan and the following general comments of the Planning
Commission:
a. Provide flexibility; and
b. Encourage signage to be integrated into the overall
project development.
2. Significant points for attention within the regulations are noted
as follows:
a. There are two types of reviews contemplated: The Standard
Sign Review, which is conducted by Staff; and the Planned
Sign Program, which is considered by the Planning Commission.
When only one sign is proposed, Staff will administratively
process the request using the Standard Sign Review Program.
However, if two or more signs are contemplated or if site
development review is otherwise required of the Planning
Commission, the sign program will receive Commission
consideration. This process is termed a Planned Sign
Program. In actual practice, most new commercial
development in La Quinta will occur and be established by
means of Commission review, and a sign program will be part
of this larger submittal and review.

G<MH The Commission, in taking action on a request, may make
adjustments, such as permitting additional sign area, number
of signs, alternative location, additional sign height, and
different types of signs.
b. The decision of the Planning Director or Planning Commission
is final unless appealed. The regulations also identify
exempt, prohibited and temporary signs.
C. The main body of the sign regulations Section 9.212.120) is
found on pages 15 through 19. This section identifies the
general regulations which are used as a guide during
planning Commission review. The major types of residential
and some specific commercial uses have been noted. Those
uses not otherwise individually listed are reviewed using
the regulations Section 9.212.120 B.) found on page 17.
d. Existing signs are permitted to remain unless the sign is a
danger to the public, or was installed or enlarged without a
permit.
e. New off-premise outdoor advertising signs are not
permitted. This does not preclude temporary off-premise
signs such as political, special event and open house signs,
which are permitted elsewhere in the regulations.
f. As with the other components of the Zoning Ordinance, these
proposed regulations only concern the general installation
of signing on private property. Signing in the public
right-of-way would either be the subject of an encroachment
permit or considered in Municipal Code Chapter 5.64,

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
The Planning Commission has conducted a study session and a public
hearing on the proposed sign regulations. Various changes have been
made to the original draft based upon the Commissioners' input,
public comment1 and specific comments received from the Chamber of
Commerce. The major changes/clarifications made are:
1. Clarification of the standard and planned sign program.
2. Added provision for a height adjustment Section 9.212.030 E.,
page 6).
3. Clarified the appeal process Section 9.212.070, page 7).
4. Required flagpoles in commercial zones to be reviewed by the
Planning Commission.
5. Added provision for temporary grand opening signs Section
9.212.110(6), page 13).

7. Clarified window signs Section 9.212.110(10), page 15).
8. Eliminated provisions for individual subdivision signs in favor
of the City-sponsored program now being developed).
9. Eliminated the provisions for new off-premise signs, except for
some small temporary signs.
The attached Final Draft Sign Regulations represent the Planning
Commission's recommendation to the City Council, which was
unanimously adopted on June 23, 1987.
FINDINGS
1. The proposed sign regulations are consistent with the La
Quinta General Plan policies which identify the need for
comprehensive sign regulations to prevent visual blight.
2. Approval of the amendment will not result in any significant
adverse environmental impacts.
3. The amendment provides for flexibility and encourages a
total sign design approach as it relates to the project
development.

Subject: Recommended Infrastructure Fees
We have performed an in-depth analysis of the last 496 building permits
which incurred an Infrastructure Fee and have translated the findings
of that analysis to the two scenarios which were presented to you on
June 16, 1987.
The first scenario required a 36/64 ratio of existing development to
future development and the second required a 52/48 ratio of existing
development to future development.
The results of our analysis suggests that the Infrastructure Fee be
raised to at least 2 3/4% or 3 1/2% of Valuation and the fee cap be
extended to $6,000.00 per unit depending on which scenario is adopted.
Scenario I Scenario II
Amount to be Raised $13,811,424.00 $10,391,040.00
Projected Units 3,500.00 3,500.00
Avg. Fee Required Per Unit $3,946.00 $2,969.00
The rates and cap necessary to generate the average fee required for
each scenario is:
Scenario I Scenario II
Average Fee Required $3,946.00 $2,969.00
Rate 3 1/2% of Valuation/ 2 3/4% of Valuation/
$6,000.00 cap $6,000.00 cap
Pro forma Average Fee $3,885.00 $3,052.00
We recommend the Council select one of the two scenarios presented and
adopt the appropriate rate and cap to match the choice.

Gentlemen:
We wish to register our opposition to the inposition of any additional
dev*lopeent fees on new construction. The increase in our volume has
been very slow, and we are vitally dependent upon considerable new
construction to enable us to ccopete as a business in the village
at La Quinta. We are sure that the other businesses in our area are
depending upon a substantial population increase in order to inaintain
a successful business.
Any increase in develop**nt fees will naturally be a deterent to the
materialization of future projects, and therefore it is of prirr*'
inportance to us that you seriously consider any sudi increase. We
are dependent upon a continuing growth and substantial increase in
store traffic.
We strongly urge that you seriously and carefully consider any increase
in fees to developers without decided incentives to encourage them
to proceed.
Yours very truly,
LA QUI* BUILDERS SUPPLY, INC.

PROPOSAL BACKGROUND
The original tentative tract application incorporated a General Plan
Amendment GPA) request to change the land use map designation from
Open Space to Low Density Residential 2-4 units per acre). The
amendment was subsequently withdrawn, based on a determination by
MR/APPRSPNS.011 1

G<M8Hthe Planning Commission that a zoning designation of w-2-10 could
accommodate the project concept, with the allowance for density
transfer to the developable portions 9.6 acres) of the site and
still be in conformance with the General Plan based on the fact that
the Open Space category does not specify density. Subsequently, the
Change of Zone request was modified from R-1-12,000 to w-2-10, which
allows 12.68 units over the entire 126.8 acre site.
A variance request is sought based upon the topographical constraints
of the property, in that only 9.6 acres 7.5%) of the Applicant's
property is developable, and that the City will likely require
dedication of the remaining property mountain) as a public view
easement.
ANALYSIS
1. A zone change from w-2-20 to w-2-10 will accommodate the
proposal, while retaining much of the site as open space which is
consistent with the Open Space designation of the General Plan.
2. The zoning proposed is considered consistent with the General
Plan land use designation, and intent and policies of the Open
Space land use designation, given the development limitations.
The density, based upon the developable acreage of + 9.6 acres,
is 1.25 units per acre.
3. A variance is requested to allow a smaller lot size than the
required minimum square footage of 20,000 square feet. Proposed
lot sizes range from 12,943 square feet to 17,325 square feet,
widths range between 95 to 130 feet, and depths between 78 and
152 feet. These are relatively large lot sizes given the amount
of developable area, topographical constraints and access
requirements.
4. One of the criteria evaluated before granting a variance is to
assure that it does not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with other properties in the same area and zone.
The intent of the Open Space category is to limit development,
not to preclude it. This site does have developable area which
can be serviced by necessary access and utilities.
The issue is whether or not the variance is justifiable. It
could be argued that there would be no granting of special
privileges, as other w-2 zoned properties in the area are not as
severely limited by topography, thereby having greater
development opportunity than the subject site.
5. Tract Map
A. Circulation
The project has access from Avenue 54 by proposing a bridge
crossing over the All American Canal. This would access a
private road system via an entry gate. The 12 residential

G<M9H lots would front on the easterly right-of-way of the private
roadway, where a series of detention basins would be
generally located to the west refer to Attachment *3).
Clearances for the proposed bridge and a 24-foot emergency
loop" access within CVWD right-of-way have tentatively been
granted and are on file. Secondary access to the project
side of the canal is available via a CVWD access road from
the west side of Jefferson Street along the north and west
sides of the canal). CVWD has also given permission to the
Applicant to use this roadway as secondary access. Any
modification/improvement to the road to make it passable for
emergency access should be in accordance with City
requirements. The proposed private road is 32 feet in
right-of-way width, which has been accepted in the past
provided parking is restricted to only one side. A parking
plan should be provided for City review. Also, future
review of any proposed entry gate will be conducted by the
Planning and Development Department.
B. Site Design
The proposal concerns only the division of land. No
development currently is proposed. All future dwellings and
structures would be reviewed by the Planning and Development
Department by staff. As noted previously, the proposed lot
sizes do not all meet the minimum requirements for size,
depth and width. Attachment #2 shows the provided lot sizes
and the minimum requirements of the w-2 zone. Five of the
12 lots meet depth/width requirements, while none meet the
minimum square footage requirements. The reduced lot
width/depth/size would not be considered significant in
terms of their developability, as the lot sizes proposed are
substantially larger than a standard R-1 lot 7,200 square
feet).
The existing grade is approximately 15 feet below the top of
the canal levee. Preliminary grading plan shows finished
pad elevations at between 8 and 10 feet above the levee.
Limiting building heights to 17 feet and requiring screening
along the canal-side subdivision boundary should reduce any
impacts to the PGA West development relative to views, as
well as reduce hazards to residents from the adjacent canal
right-of-way. Detention areas should also be screened to
avoid possible safety hazards. Protective barriers should
be provided along the westerly limits of development to
mitigate potential falling rock and possible landslide
hazards see Attachment *3). A geological engineering
report should be required to identify specific actions which
will be necessary to protect the developed areas prior to
any construction activity.

G<M:H C. Relationship to General Plan
The following elements relate to the Applicant's proposal:
HAZARDS ELEMENT: Policy 4.1.3 identifies watersheds of 20
percent slope or less as limited development areas. These
areas, shall limit development to access roads, rural
homesites, and recreational uses only." Based on the EIR
prepared for PGA West, the project is at the edge of a
tributary drainage area to Lake Cahuilla and the All
American Canal, consisting primarily of mountain slopes.
While the proposal might be construed to be inconsistent
with the subject policy, it should be noted that the Open
Space category has not been fully refined, relative to
densities and developable area. Projects are evaluated on a
case-by-case basis when located in the Open Space category.
If the project can retain the tributary and on-site drainage
and reduce impacts due to flooding, it could be argued that
the proposal can maintain consistency with the policy's
intent, which is to reduce flood hazard.
CULTURAL RESOURCES ELEMENT: Policy 5.1.6 requires parkland
dedication or in-lieu fees by residential developers.
Dedication of lot 13 117.2 acres) as a public view easement
can be considered as complying with this policy, as the
parcel could be used in the future to develop a hiking trail
system. This easement will also protect potential bighorn
sheep and prairie falcon areas, although past environmental
documentation has indicated that no such activity has been
monitored.
policy 5.2.3 requires undergrounding of utilities wherever
possible. Imperial Irrigation has indicated that the
existing overhead lines could be undergrounded if CVWD is
amenable to this.
Policy 5.3.1 requires that development plans be reviewed by
a qualified archaeologist prior to final approval. This
would be required prior to final map approval.
INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT: Policy 7.4.4 reiterates the
provision for undergrounding of existing overhead power
facilities.
D. Environmental
Potential adverse impacts due to the proposal should be
mitigated through the proposed approval conditions. Design
restrictions can be attached to create an attractive,
compatible appearance with PGA West. The Applicant will
have to demonstrate that specific technical engineering
requirements can and will be met should the project be
approved.

G<MDH ALTERNATE TO CONDITION FOR PROVIDING SECONDARY ACCESS
TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 21939
CODY & BRADY, ARCHITECTS
Currently recommended Condition Number 5 requires the Applicant to
provide and maintain a secondary access. The secondary access was
recommended by the Fire Marshal because of the length of the proposed
cul-de-sac 2,250 feet). Normal fire department practice is to
prohibit cul-de-sacs of more than 1,000 feet unless a secondary
access is provided.
The Applicant proposed to use the CVWD service road along the All
American Canal from Jefferson Street. Upon review of this proposal,
the Water District has stipulated conditions which require the
Applicant to install a chain link fence along the proposed access,
and to secure written approval from the ad*acent property owner
Landmark Land, Oak Tree West Project).
Therefore, the following condition was recommended to address the
concern of the Fire Marshal:
Condition 45: The Applicant shall maintain secondary access
along the CVWD service road, from Jefferson Street along the
north and west sides of the All American Canal. The signed
contractual agreement for this provision shall be submitted to
the Planning and Development Department and the Fire Marshal's
office. Applicant shall be responsible for any
improvement/upgrading of the access road to City standards.
As an alternative to the above Condition, because of the concern of
the CVWD as identified in the attached letter, the Council may wish
to consider one of the following:
ALTERNATIVE *1: Add a second paragraph to the existing Condition
*5 to read,
As an alternative to the above, the Applicant may choose to
construct two separate one-way bridges across the All
American Canal at the end of Avenue 54."
ALTERNATIVE *2: The Council may choose to eliminate Condition *5
because the primary bridge should provide adequate access to the
proposed 12 residential units. The cost and aesthetics of
providing the secondary access or providing two separate bridges
may not justify the future possibility of needing or using the
secondary access. Currently, Lake Cahuilla Park is served by a
single access from Jefferson Street which has not created a
problem.

PROJECT: STREET VACATION NO. 87-011
CONFORMANCE WITH GENERAL PLAN
APPLICANT: KWL ASSOCIATES, INC.
ADJACENT
PROPERTY
OWNERS: WASHINGTON PLAZA ASSOCIATES AND LA QUINTA 111,
LTD.
LOCATION: AVENUE 46; BETWEEN THE WHITEWATER RIVER
CHANNEL'S SOUTHWESTERLY BOUNDARY AND THE
NORTHEASTERLY RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE OF STATE HIGHWAY
111.
BACKGROUND: THE APPLICANT REQUESTS THE VACATION OF A PORTION
OF AVENUE 46 IN ORDER TO COMMERCIALLY DEVELOP THE
CONTIGUOUS PROPERTIES SEE ATTACHED CASE MAP).
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65402 REQUIRES
THAT THE PLANNING AGENCY" REPORT ON A PROPOSED
ROAD ABANDONMENT RELATIVE TO ITS CONFORMANCE WITH
THE AGENCY'S ADOPTED GENERAL PLAN. SECTION
9.16.060 OF THE LA QUINTA MUNICIPAL CODE
DESIGNATES THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
AS THE PLANNING AGENCY FOR SUCH PURPOSES.
ENVIRONMENTAL
ASSESSMENT: AN ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT HAS BEEN PREPARED BY
THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT AND IT HAS
BEEN TENTATIVELY DETERMINED THAT APPROVAL OF THE
REQUEST WILL NOT RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT ADVERSE
IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT.
ANALYSIS
In considering this request, several determinations should be made,
including:
* Consistency of the proposed abandonment with the General
Plan.
* Evidence of public benefit of proposed abandonment.
* Demonstration that roads proposed for abandonment are not
needed for future use.
General Plan Consistency: The vacation of this portion of Avenue
46 could be considered to be in compliance with the adopted
Circulation Plan since 60-foot-wide, local streets are not shown and

G<MFHpolicy 7.5.13 recommends street intersections to be a minimum of 1/4
mile apart. The proposed street vacation is also consistent with the
Highway ill Specific Plan's concept of limited access onto Highway
111.
Public Benefit: Vacation of this segment of Avenue 46 will
primarily benefit public traffic safety by eliminating the odd 46th
Avenue intersection with Highway 111. It will also eliminate the
need for, at a minimum, a low-flow grade crossing through the
Whitewater Channel. Such a crossing would create additional flood
hazard, high maintenance burdens and visual sight distance conflicts.
Future Use: Avenue 46 will not be necessary for future use as
access or circulation. Access to both affected parcels can be
obtained from Highway 111 or Washington Street, as a 1shared"
access. Secondary access easements will be obtained from the
properties along the Whitewater River Channel, in order to
accommodate interior parcels with no secondary access.
Utilities: The proposed vacation is not anticipated to affect the
future provision of utilities in the area. Utilities can be
relocated, where necessary, and easements will be reserved where
necessary. To date, the Gas Company has identified an existing gas
main located within the right-of-way.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt City Council Resolution No. 87-45, vacating Avenue 46.

To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Ronald L. Kiedrowski, City Manager*
Date: June 24, 1987
Subject: Bill for La Quinta Participation in Funding of
the Third Party Review of the Colmac/Cabazon Biornass
Fueled Power Plant Project"
The CVAG Executive Committee on March 30, 1987, voted to appropriate
$15,000 from its reserves to help defer the County's cost for an
independent review of the proposed Colmac/Cabazon Biomass Fueled
powerplant near Mecca.
The Executive Committee's intent was that these funds be replaced by
CVAG's members utilizing the standard CVAG formula based half on
population and half on assessed valuation.
I received a billing from CVAG today requesting payment for La Quinta's
participation towards the cost of this third party review. The bill,
totalling $653, comes from the CVAG Executive Committee as a strong
request for payment, not an assessment.
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council authorize the City
Manager to process a warrant, payable to CVAG, in the amount of $653, to
cover the cost of La Quinta's participation towards a Riverside County
third party" review of the proposed Colmac/Cabazon Biomass Power Plant.

Center Dear Mayor Hoyle,
12800 Heacock St.
SuiteA-1 The Water Quality Sub-Committee of the California
MarenoValley,CA League of Cities has been working hard for almost a year to
714)924.7155 prepare a water policy statement for all of California. This
policy will be presented for a vote at the annual League of
Cities Convention in October.
Enclosed is the working draft of the policy including
the revisions. It is extremely important that you present
this to your council for comments and/or revisions. Those of
us in Southern California who rely on aqueduct water from
Northern California for survival have a vital interest in a
sound water policy; one that will guarantee us a water
supply for the future. Some areas of the State that export
water to the South would prefer to retain the water in the
Delta or San Francisco Bay.
Please review this material and send your comments or
revisions to:
Mayor Pro-tern Dale Bohnenberger
CIO City of La Quinta
P. 0. Box 92253
La Quinta, Ca. 92253
It is important that responses be received by August 1,
1987 for Date to tabulate and summarize them for review by
the Water Policy Committee.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Judy Nieburger, Mayor, Moreno valley
Dale Bohnenberger, Mayor Pro-tem, La Quinta

MEMORANDUM *ONT*NUED TO
CITY OF LA QUINTA
OF
To: Ron Kiedrowski, City Manager
From. Roger Hirdler, Community Safety Director
Date: July 13, 1987
Subject: Cove Natural Gas Survey Information
Staff has completed the natural gas survey for the cove area of
the city.
The city received 35 responses to our questionnaire that was
placed in the May/June newsletter. of the 35 responses, two were
for the same address.
Staff used a large map of the cove area to try and see if there
was a pattern or cluster of owners to make it feasible, and also
economical for all parties to have access to natural gas.
As you can see from the map, there is no definite pattern,
probably due to the small response.
The gas company advises that the cost for gas mains is $7.00 per
foot. That would be in addition to the following allowances:
Range & oven 50 feet
Water heater 80 feet
Forced air furnace 7 feet first 10,000 BTU's
& 5 feet each 10,000 BTU's
There is no allowance for swimming pools or spas.
There would have to be 5 or 6 property owners per block to have
gas mains installed. Possibly we should run the survey again in
late fall. It might catch more of the seasonal residents at home.
