So
we'll
move
on
to
new
business
item

which
is
Jim
landday
owner,
requesting

of
a
major
development
permit
application
for
a
4866
square
foot,
two-story,
mixed-use,
building
and
related
site
improvements,
including
an
administrative
minor

for
reduction
of
one
required
off-street
parking
space
on
a
ten
thousand
square
foot
net
square

May
we
have
a
staff
report.
Please!
A
B
And
my
apologies
for
something
I
forgot

there
is
we

so
that's
my
mistake.
So
if
you

mind
just
we'll
open
it
for

comment,
if
there's
anybody
here,
either
in

here
that
which
used
to
speak
on
this
item,
can
you
please
identify
your
hand
on
the
zoom
call
or
otherwise.
A
E
B
You
Mr
Royce
chair,
so
this
isn't
a
an
application
by
Jim
Landy,
the
property
owner
for
approval
of
a
major
architectural
application
for
a
4866
square
foot,
two-story
mixed-use,
building
related
site,
Improvement
running
ten
thousand
square
foot
a
lot
located
at
605,
East,
Sunny,
Hills
Road.
The
development
really
is
a
two-story
building
and
it's
L-shaped,
the
I'm
gonna
beautiful
yes,
I
was
just
going
to
do
that.
No
that's!
Okay!.
B
There
we
go
Okay
so
that
I've
told
you,
so
it
is
an
architectural
application.
The
zoning
is
the
commercial
manufacturing
Zone
and
the
general
plan
is
mixed
use
multi-use.
Then
the
project
does
conform
to
both
the
zone
and
the
general
plan.
This
is
some
context
that
was
provided
into
your
packet
by
the
applicant
and
it
shows
the
area
where
the
project
is
located
along
the
sunny
Dunes
Corridor
and
it's
just
east
of
southbound
Canyon,
there's
currently
a
vacant
lot
in
what
is
otherwise
a
fully
developed
section
of
the
city.
B
These
are
the
elevations
showing
both
the
street
elevation
and
the
rear
elevation.
Along
with
its
parking
lot.
You
can
see
the
building
has
a
drive-through
area
from
the
street
into
the
rear
parking
lot
that
goes
beneath
the
building,
and
here
you
have
an
actual
drawing
that
helps
understand
the
site,
a
little
bit
better.
The
parking
the
applicant
is
proposing
in
a
Precast,
concrete
paver.
B
In
the
pattern
that
you
see,
the
parking
on
the
site
is
arranged
again
on
the
rear
part
of
the
parcel
bringing
the
building
along
the
front
of
the
property
which
is
in
aligning
with
other
existing
buildings.
On
this
particular
block,
so
as
you
look
at
the
floor
plans,
the
ground
floor
is
retail
use.
Currently
he
is
anticipating
a
possible
tendency
with
a
cannabis
tenant
who
had
previously
gotten
approvals
for
a
regulatory
permit
for
a
cannabis
use
on
this
parcel.
B
However,
that
particular
development
did
not
go
forward,
and
so
the
owner
is
in
negotiations
with
this
particular
cannabis
permittee
with
an
intestine
wrench.
But
again
tonight
is
we're
not
looking
at
the
Cannabis
application,
but
simply
be
aware
that
that
is
what
is
anticipated
person
floor,
commercial
use
of
being
the
second
floor.
He
anticipates
being
an
art
gallery
on
the
majority
of
the
second
floor,
because
this
is
in
the
CM
Zone
a
caretaker's
unit
is
possible
and
that
is
proposed.
There.
B
And
it's
designed
to
be
more
resistant
to
the
Heat
and
deterioration
that
we
get
here
in
the
desert
from
the
Sun
there's,
also
mechanical
equipment
on
the
roof,
which
will
be
screened
by
both
a
solid
parapet
wall
as
well
as
a
reversaluber
screening.
As
you
see
in
the
middle
of
the
screen
here
and
then
the
parking
lot
lighting
does
conform
to
the
city's
outdoor
lighting,
ordinance
in
terms
of
cut
off
angles
and
so
on
and.
B
These
are
the
solar
studies.
One
of
the
concerns
we
had
at
staff
level
was
with
the
amount
of
glass
and
glazing
that
you
see
on
the
building
and,
as
you
know,
to
the
justification
letter
for
this
project,
the
owner
is
aware
that
he
is
looking
to
do
a
considerable
amount
of
glass
in
the
building.
It's
going
to
need
to
be
a
high
performance,
glass
and
there's
going
to
need
to
be
a
robust
mechanical
system
to
provide
the
cooling
for
this
building.
B
The
building
is
a
proposed
with
portable
tank
panels,
as
you
can
see
both
on
the
axle
and
on
these
drawings,
and
these
basically
give
you
a
sense
of
the
kind
of
similar
exposure
that
the
building
will
have
from
morning
through
afternoon,
both
at
the
liquor
Solstice
had
at
the
summer
solstice
and
we'll
come
back
and
visit.
You
further
questions,
so
the
project
has
been
reviewed
against
the
Architectural
Review
guidelines
of
zoning
code,
section
9404
and
it
does
after
staff,
has
gone
through
each
one
of
these
items.
B
As
noted
in
your
staff
report,
the
project
does
conform
to
the
findings
for
architectural
approval.
So
in
closing
on
my
slide
presentation,
it
does
conform
to
the
development
standards
of
the
Zone.
It
conforms
with
the
architectural
guidelines
of
Architectural
Review
under
sequa.
The
Atlantic
commission
determined
it
to
be
categorically
exempt
as
an
Intel
project,
and
so
the
staff
recommendation
is
to
approve
this
project
subject
to
the
conditions
of
approval
that
you
see
attached
to
your
staff
report,
the
applicant's
architect
Tony
Stark,
is
here
in
the
meeting
with
us
today.
F
B
Mostly
just
the
parking
lot
lighting
as
you'll
see
there'll
be
some
modest
amount
of
just
low
voltage
lighting
around
some
of
the
planting
areas
in
the
in
the
parking
lot
area.
The
other
thing
I
did
want
to
mention
and
I
didn't
have
in
my
slide
presentation,
so
I
forgot
to
mentioned.
That
is
when
this
project
went
through
the
Planning
Commission
last
week.
B
One
of
the
recommendations
that
they
wanted
you
to
consider
was
the
possibility
of
adding
a
couple
of
Street
trees
in
the
public
right-of-way
to
begin
to
sort
of
soften
this
portion
of
Sunny
deols.
Now
there
are
no
Street
trees
on
Sunny
Dunes.
It
was
originally
a
pretty
heavy
industrial
area
which
has
been
slowly
converting
over
to
commercial
usage,
but
in
speaking
with
engineering
and
Public
Works.
If
the.
B
If
the
committee
believes
that
trees
would
be
appropriate
here
from
an
engineering
perspective,
it
would
be
possible
to
do
there
is
another
public
sidewalk
with
in
order
to
accommodate
a
street.
Well,
I
mean
it's
a
tree
well
and
still
have
enough
proper
passage
for
Ada
and
the
the
treaties,
because
there
are
overhead
lines
in
this
particular
area
would
need
to
be
something
that
has
a
canopy
height.
F
G
B
B
A
A
B
That's
correct
through
both
the
shading
requirement
and
the
dedication
of
easement
in
order
to
provide
for
the
full
hat
Street
right-of-way.
The
lot,
which
was
originally
130
by
100,
was
reduced
down
to
100
by
100,
and
so
everything
got
squeezed
a
little
bit
further
south
and
they
were
unable
to
get
the
full
13
spaces
there.
So
the
plan
to
mention
did
approve
in
a
m
reducing
the
working
from
13.
H
H
A
H
Excited
to
be
here
and
showing
this
project
to
to
you,
we've
been
working
on
this
with
the
client
for
oh
I.
Think
it's
about
six
months
now
and
we're
developing
it
and
working
it
through
playing
my
name's
Anthony,
architects
and
I.
Think
in
general,
Ken
describe
the
project
in
general
and
for
for
our
intent
and
I
can
obviously
hear
for
any
questions
specifically.
A
H
F
H
On
the
west
side,
so
there's
well,
there's
there's
a
few
parking
spaces
and
then
we've
got
a
corner,
large
landscape
corner.
There
is
the
five
foot
step
back
from
the
property
line
to
the
parking
curve.
So
we
do
have
a
box
close
to
my
other
quarter
fee
or
an
area
from
planting
and
throw
that
car
into
Clinton.
Without
what
you
referring
to.
H
H
F
H
H
C
C
E
B
H
F
B
A
I
A
H
No
at
this
point
in
time,
The
Institute-
that
specific
finish,
is
still
meeting
the
government
or
working
with
the
plan
about
that
and
depending
on
our
final
decision
that
we
may
keep,
we
may
have
two
different
colors.
We
may
just
have
one
more
or
one
of
the
other.
They
haven't
finalized
back
there.
H
The
the
second
level
of
the
the
arc
hour
on
the
outside
is
going
to
be.
We
need
to
be
flush
releasing
on
the
outside,
so
it's
going
to
be
just
a
a
so-called
joint
with
the
ammonium
behind
it.
It'll
be
an
offset
system
so
that
may
have
aluminum.
You
know
engraving
on
the
inside.
The
first
level
may
not
go
with
a
white
which
would
be
a
standard
storage
sort
of
being
exposed.
When
you
see
it
in
online.
H
Similar
element,
but
they
might
have,
we
might
change
them
a
little
bit,
so
that
would
be
able
to
stand
out
separately
so
the
family
room.
On
the
second
floor,
we
don't
necessarily
may
not
want
that
to
match
the
the
mullions
on
the
ground
floor
to
kind
of
give
those
volumes
of
different
texture
and
a
different
female
or
different.
You
know
design.
A
A
And
then
on
the
East
property
line,
where
you
have
the
bowed
wall
at
the
driveway,
so
I
I'm
not
currently
in
Palm
Springs,
but
I
pulled
up
Google
Earth
and
it
looks
like
there's
a
hedge
on
the
adjacent
property
of
the
Bougainvillea.
So
my
question
is
about
the
maintenance
of
the
space
between
the
boat
wall
and
that
hedge,
on
both
the
both
the
sunny
dudes
top
side
and
then
the
area
that's
kind
of
on
the
parking
lot
side
where
you've
got
the
trash
enclosure
butting
up
to
that
road
wall.
H
A
H
G
G
Okay,
okay,
that
makes
sense,
and
that
will
cover
you
for
that.
All
right
and
I
I
did
read
you're
recognizing
the
issue
of
the
of
the
solar
game
and
the
only
thing
I
thought
is
I.
Looked
at
the
sun
studies,
it's
kind
of
it's
a
little
bit
ironic
in
Palm,
Springs
that
the
obviously
you
you
know
you
sort
of
welcome
the
winter
months
and
and
overhangs
are
very
effective
in
the
middle
of
June
yeah
really
well.
G
You
know
direct
solar
yeah,
so
you
know
I
would
encourage
you
just
to
look
at
that,
but
it
sounds
like
you
are
already
aware
of
just
a
challenge
around
that
the
the
streetscape
faces
due
north
correct.
So
so
I
I
don't
know
if
that
would
not
be
on
my
radar
to
worry
about
too
much,
but
certainly
on
the
on
the
other
side.
Again.
G
H
G
B
A
H
A
D
F
C
G
I
would
kind
of
Concur
and
maybe
sort
of
round
out
some
of
the
things
that
have
been
said.
You
can
tell
when
you
look
at
a
project
like
this
at
a
tremendous
amount
of
care,
went
into
the
composition
of
the
of
the
design
and
and
and
just
general
thoughtfulness.
I
also
think
it
would
be
significantly
contributory
to
the
overall
neighborhood
escape
and
and
streetscape
so
yeah,
no
I
think
it
would.
It
will
be
very
successful.
I
C
A
A
A
And
then
the
only
other
thing
is
I
I'd
like
to
propose
a
stipulation
that
the
the
color
temperature
of
the
lighting
not
exceed
3000,
that
it'd
be
three
thousand
or
less
and
that
they
seriously
look
at
how
to
maintain
the
space
on
the
east
side
of
the
boat
wall
at
the
driveway,
because
I
think
long
term.
That
could
be
a
real
maintenance
issue
with
that.
F
Do
we
have
a
motion?
Mr
chairman
I
have
one
additional
comment,
I
think,
and
maybe
it
was
brought
up
earlier
too,
that
they
could
explore
some
up
lighting
from
the
landscape
to
light
the
building
itself.
There's
some
opportunities
there
to
to
create
some
nice
shadow
effects,
especially
on
that
entry
drive
as
it
goes
under
the
building
and
on
those
walls.
So
I
would
just
make
that
as
a
recommendation
or
comment
for
the
developer.
A
B
C
B
G
E
Yeah,
the
only
thing
that
I
would
say
is
that
we
have
seated
three
new
members
of
the
Planning
Commission
we're
creating
someone
on
this
call
and,
as
part
of
the
discussion
at
last
week's
Planning
Commission
meeting,
they
re-up
something
that
I
gather
they
used
to
do.
Where
planning
commissioner,
would
sort
of
observe
the
arc
meeting
so
that
they
could
report
back
to
the
full
Planning
Commission,
just
to
kind
of
keep
the
two-way
flow
of
information.
Since
you
know
you
all
are
looking
at
decisions
that
they
vote
behind
on
previously.
E
So
they're
going
to
be
beginning
that
in
September
and
they'll
be
kind
of
working
through
a
cycle
alphabetically
essentially
to
have
members
sit
in
so
in
September,
now
Vice
chair,
Loria
land
will
be
observing
quietly.
She
she
doesn't
plan
to
to
talk
or
participate
much,
but
just
wanted
you
all
to
know
in
case
you
see
those
faces
coming
in.
