Optimism requires that we continue with plans to participate in the system's summer reading program. Your librarian is working out of the McCandless Regional Library Headquarters in Indio. With clerical assistance* books, magazines and other materials are being received and prepared for shelving in the new branch. Community contacts through schools, the Chamber of Commerce and the Coachella Valley Bookmobile's Tuesday morning story time in the park are giving me the opportunity to get to know the community of La Quinta. The citizens of La Quinta, City government and the Chamber of Commerce continue their whole hearted support for the library and enthusiastically await its opening. A Friends of the La Quinta Library group will be organizing within the next few weeks. **A*/ * 6" / BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ NOTEXTPAGE BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ NOTEXTPAGE BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ NOTEXTPAGE BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ NOTEXTPAGE BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ NOTEXTPAGE BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ REPORT OF PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION DATE: MAY 3, 1988 APPLI CANTI OWNER: LANDMARK LAND COMPANY, INC.

One of these had to do with the possible signalization of the intersection of Avenue 50 and Park Avenue, and the other related to access to Avenue 50 from a multifamily lot in that tract. In the opinion of the Committee members, the two items are related, and it was the concensus that in the absence of reasonably accurate traffic projections, defensible determinations cannot be made at this time. Therefore, it; was the Committee's recommendation that an independent traffic survey be conducted to provide the necessary information. While the development of Tract 23292 undoubtedly will contribute to the traffic at the subject intersection, there are other important factors which have to be taken into consideration: 1. The development of the tract will open up an access from the Cove area to the school and sports complex which we feel will become a primary route, thus avoiding the 50th and Washington intersection. 2. The impact of the Adams, Truman and middle schools must be evaluated. 3. Similarly, the impact on traffic at that location by the sports complex now under construction must be factored into the study. 4. Traffic projections on Avenue 50 will impact the access the developer wants for the multifamily lot. In addition, to be studied will be the potential sight distance problem for eastbound 50th traffic as it comes out of the La Quinta Evacuation channel.

It is estimated that the cost of the study will be $8,000, and Landmark Land Company, the developer of Tract 23292, has been requested to contribute one-fourth the cost.

As you will know, Montero Estates is located on the north west corner of Washington Street and Avenue 50. Washington Street, being the only main artery into the City of La Quinta, has recently been widened from two to four lanes. The greatly increased flow of traffic has created a serious safety problem and noise pollution situation which is well in excess of any reasonable standards. Several years ago, when my clients raised their concerns for these future potential problems, the City of La Quinta council agreed to remedy the noise pollution and safety problem which would be created by the widening of Washington Street to accommodate increased traffic flow. My clients advise that the agreement was that the City of La Quinta would either build or pay the cost of building an eight foot sound abatement wall which would not only reduce the noise decimal level to acceptable limits but would also eliminate the danger to life and property created by the close proximity of the traffic to the tax payers residences. The existing oleander hedges and low decorative walls were to be replaced by the sound abatement wall at such time as it became necessary to remedy the safety and noise problem. My clients submit that this time has now arrived and on their behalf I am hereby requesting that the City of 619) 77*3668 TELECOPIER 619) 341-3635 74* EL PASEO. SUITE 100. P. Q BOX 3668.

We submit that a safety report and a noise abatement study by the City of La Quinta will confirm that the current situation affecting these City of La Quinta residents cannot be allowed to continue and that the City must act immediately to avoid continuing harm to its members. We respectfully request that the City Council at its meeting of April 19th take the appropriate decisions to have the necessary sound abatement wall constructed. My clients, through their representatives, Howard Tons 564-4644), Margaret Miele 564-4904) and Rocco Balsamo 564-1124), or through the writer, are most anxious to assist the City Council and the City staff in its deliberations and planning and, accordingly, invite you to contact us at any time. cc: Howard Tons Margaret Niele Rocco Balsamo 730/WKH2 BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ#4 COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE ECONOMIC / COMMUNITY D*ELOPMENT April 28 1988 City of La Quinta 78-105 Calle Estado P. 0.

After discussion, Council*s direction to Staff was as follows: 1. Narrow the range of alternatives to the two and one half lot size park, oriented primarily to preschool and early school age children, and include some low level lighting and security lighting, striving not to create a glare problem for neighboring properties. Do not include restrooms in the plans. 2. Proceed with refinement of park planning and design. As a first step, review the plans for the park with the Planning Commission and the Community Services Commission. Report back their separate recommendations at the Council meeting of May 3rd. 3. Develop strategies and make arrangements to implement the park construction immediately after a final Council decision, so that as much construction as possible can be accomplished during the remainder of this fiscal year.

1988 SUBJECT: Proposed Skateboard Ordinance Attached is a proposed skateboard ordinance to help regulate skateboards1 and to reduce the city's liability in the event of litigation. It is restrictive, and basically places skateboards in a transportation mode. We have received sixteen adapted ordinances from other agencies through the league and CCAN. They range from complete banning to regulating skateboards in business and commercial districts. In as much the city does not have much of a business district yet, I believe this proposed ordinance would suit our needs at this time. To approve anything more liberal would open the city to untold liabilities. RH:es BIB] 11-04-1998-U01 04:12:38PM-U01 BASIC-U01 CC-U02 05-U02 03-U02 1988-U02 i^EQ Chapter SKATEBOARD ORDINANCE NO.
