of
May
11
2023

I
want

Colby
Bell
Seacrest
to
the
mic.
She
is
10
years
old
and
a
fourth
grade
gate
student
at
Catherine
finchy
elementary
school.
She
has
three
sisters
and
they
all
love
dancing,
but
she
can
do
the
most
gymnastic
tricks
more
than
her
sisters,
so
go
ahead.
B
A
C
A
Okay,
fantastic
all

are

Thank

Our
next

of
the

The
city

will
discuss
the
order
of
the
agenda.
May

A
A
A
H
A
A
Thank
you
very
much.
The
next
item
is
public
testimony.
This
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
city
council
on
non-public
hearing
agenda
items.
Only
public
hearing
items
will
be
taken
at
the
time
of
that
public
hearing
two
minutes
will
be
assigned
to
each
speaker.
You're
asked
to
please
begin
your
time
by
telling
us
what
agenda
item
or
items
you
are
speaking
about.
I
I
think
it
was
phenomenal.
I
just
want
to
recognize
Jeff
Hawker
over
here.
Who
is
my
my
publicist,
who
has
been
encouraging
me
to
come
to
say
hello
to
you
for
quite
a
while,
but
I
needed
a
real
reason,
which
is
the
proclamation
to
come
and
do
that
and
then
Jen
Gibson
for
putting
forth
the
proclamation
to
the
city.
I
just
want
to.
Thank
you
all
for
the
work
you
do
and
I
love
being
in
the
desert,
and
it's
been
great
to
be
here
today
and
thank
you
for
the
work
that
you
do.
J
J
J
I
am
not
from
Palm
Springs,
but
I
was
doing
a
little
digging
on
my
way
here
and
I
have
been
Amazed
by
the
vibrant
Jewish
community
and
how
much
they
have
played
a
vital
role
in
the
city's
history
and
development.
With
many
of
Palm
Springs,
most
iconic
landmarks
once
being
owned
and
operated
by
Jewish
entrepreneurs
from
the
early
settlers
who
arrived
in
the
early
20th
century
to
the
wonderful
Jewish
community
that
exists
here
today,
Palm
Springs
has
been
a
place
of
opportunity,
hope
and
resilience
for
many
Jewish
Americans.
J
In
closing,
I
would
like
to
once
again
express
my
gratitude
to
the
mayor
and
the
city
council
for
their
proclamation
of
Jewish
American
heritage
month
and
for
their
ongoing
support
of
the
Palm
Springs
Jewish
Community
Palm
Spring
is
is
known
for
being
an
inclusive
and
diverse
City
that
celebrates
and
respects
its
residents
cultural
heritage.
This
recognition
of
Jewish
American
heritage
month
is
a
testament
to
the
city's
commitment
to
promoting
acceptance
and
understanding
among
all
of
its
residents,
regardless
of
their
background
or
faith.
J
K
Michael
Joseph
Pitkin
all
allocations,
I
qualify
for
Paratransit
I
have
my
out-of-state
ID
cards.
I
have
not
applied
for
California
Ada
certification
ID,
when
I
left
IEHP
I
used
Jewish
Family
Services
of
San
Diego
to
cover
my
Transportation.
They
provided
free,
sunline
bus
passes,
I
accessed
this
service
and
receive
a
week
and
a
half
worth
of
trips
a
month.
Lately,
I've
received
two
days
a
month.
Cvag
explains
we
do
not
control
how
any
agencies
disperse
the
passes.
K
Cvag.Org
explained
there
is
no
Federal
grant,
but
a
private
Community
donation
bus
program.
Each
City
donates,
3,
000.
Palm
Springs
I
ask
for
a
much
larger
allocation
to
this
program
from
cities.
Jf
SSD
explained
they
were
receiving
200
adults
195
senior
disabled
from
cvac.
If
these
were
to
be
distributed
as
a
30-day
allocation
to
an
individual,
they
would
serve
seven
people
a
month.
Now
they
are
allocated
50,
regular
and
50
senior
disabled
as
a
30-day
allotment.
This
serves
approximately
three
people.
This
is
not
sufficient
to
address
the
need.
K
I
ask
that
the
day
passes
be
phased
out
for
30-day
bus
passes.
In
my
experience,
one
important
medical
housing
jobs
appointment
can
generate
about
two
to
three
additional
trips
example:
pick
up
laundry
detergent
laundromat
a
drink
when
it's
100
degrees
out
Library
the
store,
regular
life
takes
several
trips
for
just
one
important
appointment
trip
when
talking
about
five
important
appointments.
Really
we
are
talking
about.
20
rides
to
accomplish
these
five
appointments
instead
of
first
come.
K
First
serve
I
ask
cvac
to
create
a
database
where
a
number
of
assigned
to
each
client
no
double
dipping
between
agencies.
Another
option
is
to
allocate
funding
to
sunline,
allowing
free
bus
service
for
all
across
certain
routes.
I
recommend
lines
four
two
and
one.
This
will
allow
Palm
Springs
poor,
just
enabled
customers
to
go
Valley
Wide
and
allow
tourists
the
ability
to
ride
without
having
to
dig
for
phone
cash
or
tickets.
Thank.
L
L
L
So
with
my
time,
remaining
I
do
want
to
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
Robert's,
Rules
and
how
that
applies
to
1A
and
virtual
meetings.
There's
a
new
book
out
this
book
is:
let's
see,
I
brought
it
the
last
time
Robert's
Rules
of
orders
fast
track.
It
also
has
best
practices
for
virtual
meetings.
Something
I
think
that
Council
wants
to
look
into
and
make
sure
we
adopt
best
practices
for
virtual
meetings.
L
With
this
yesterday,
I
was
looking
through
Robert's
Rules
and
with
these
55
seconds
that
I
have
left,
let's
keep
going
here
notice
that
General
Henry
M
Robert
passed
away,
May
11
1923..
That
is
100
years
ago.
Today,
history
history
occurred
100
years
ago,
Robert's
Rules
of
orders.
You
know
it
was
one
where
I
thought.
Oh
can
I
take
30
seconds
here.
We
just
have
a
moment
of
silence
and
just
honor
yeah.
Can
we
do
that.
A
F
F
M
F
M
Recoveries
now
this
is
combined.
So
this
just
isn't
our
third
party
provider.
We
couldn't
get
a
break
out
of
what
they
produced
versus
what
we
produce,
but
in
of
year
to
date,
23
we
have
about
386
thousand
dollars
in
recoveries
in
22
we
had
about
425
000
in
recoveries
and
there's
a
couple
of
large
items
in
there
that
I
do
know
that
was
done
internally,
but
there
are
recoveries
that
are
obtained
by
the
third
party.
Okay,.
M
Yeah
well,
the
the
not
yes
annually,
yes,
because
the
not
to
exceed
contract,
we're
asking
Council
to
approve
is
five
years,
five
hundred
and
seventy
thousand,
so
on
an
annual
basis.
We
feel
that
they
could
potentially
been
paying
for
themselves,
even
though
we
haven't
done
that
analysis
to
break
up
what
they
recover
versus
what
we
recover.
Okay.
A
A
All
right
motion
passes
the
next
item.
We
will
turn
to
is
item.
1J
approve
memorandum
of
understanding
with
the
Coachella
Valley
Association
of
governments
to
provide
case
management
and
Outreach
Services
to
homeless
individuals
in
the
Coachella
Valley
for
a
term
of
three
years
at
one
hundred
thousand
dollars
per
year,
councilmember
de
Hart,
you
pulled
this.
Do
you
have
a
question
or
would
you
like
a
staff
report
I.
A
E
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
I'll,
just
add
comments.
If
I
can
I
was
proud
to
chair
the
cvag
Coachella
Valley
Association
of
governments,
homelessness
committee
for
a
number
of
years,
and
our
CV
housing
first
program
is
really
successful
and
I
just
want
to
read
out
the
numbers
if
I
can
for
the
staff
who
might
have
not
read
the
report.
So
this
shows
in
2022
see
vagus
listed
119
individuals,
finding
crisis
stabilization
units,
those
are
apartments
and
hotels
with
Services.
E
We
were
people
in
stay
up
to
90
days
and
they're,
also
helping
people
outside
of
the
program
and
as
Jay
mentioned,
these
are
the
chronically
homeless.
People
have
been
homeless,
often
for
one
year
or
even
up
to
10
years
or
longer
so
the
hardest
to
house
and
the
success
rates
are
really
impressive.
I
think
it's
over
70
percent
and
we're
actually
tracking
people
year
over
year
to
make
sure
those
people
stay
housed.
E
They
work
with
our
police
department
and
police
departments
and
hospitals
and
social
service
providers
all
over
the
region
so
that
we
can
generate
the
list
so
really
proud
of
this
work,
and
you
know
I
know
I
say
this
a
lot
people
say
there's
no
current
shelter
in
Palm
Springs,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
people
aren't
being
housed
in
Palm
Springs
and
exiting
homelessness
from
our
streets
into
permanent
housing.
So
thank
you
to
council
and
staff
for
your
support
of
this
item.
Thank.
B
A
Still
have
to
vote
all
right,
five.
Zero.
The
item
passes.
The
next
item
is
1K,
except
the
housing
element,
annual
progress
report
for
the
2022
calendar
year
for
filing
with
the
California
Department
of
Housing
and
Community
Development
councilmember
Holsted,
you
pulled
this.
Do
you
want
to
open
us
with
thank.
E
P
Sure,
thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
Council
good
evening.
The
item
before
you
is
our
annual
report
for
the
housing
element,
which
is
one
of
the
chapters
of
our
general
plan.
We
are
currently
updating
that
chapter
of
the
journal
plan,
but
we
still
use
the
arena
numbers
that
were
given
to
us
a
couple
of
years
ago
to
see
where
we're
at
in
achieving
the
cycle
or
the
eight
year
period,
which
is
the
sixth
cycle.
P
P
Those
are
the
tables
that
discuss
or
identify
the
city's
progress
or
what
data
we
have
relative
to
new
entitlements
that
have
been
submitted.
That
would
be
table
a
so.
In
summary,
for
2022
we
had
a
total
of
21
applications
for
new
residential
development
in
the
city
that
included
a
total
of
33
units
for
the
city
last
year,
and
that
was
for
single-family
homes
and
two
condominium
developments.
P
Table
A2
is
the
progress
that
the
city
made
in
2022
relative
to
new
construction,
so,
basically
building
permits
that
were
issued
in
2022.
There
were
a
total
of
448
units
permitted
in
2022
on
table
three.
We
summarize
how
we
identified
those
units
relative
to
the
various
income
levels
that
the
state
requires
City's
report
from
very
low
income
to
above
moderate
income
units
majority.
You
know,
as
historically
cities
don't
have-
or
at
least
Palm
Springs
hasn't
had
a
problem
meeting
the
requirements
for
above
moderate
units.
P
It
really
has
been
a
challenge
for
cities
and
Palm
Springs
to
accommodate
the
very
low
to
moderate
income
levels.
So
what
we've
identified
here
is
that
we
have
had.
We
did
have
two
affordable
housing
projects
that
did
Issue
permits
in
22,
that
was
the
Monarch
Apartments
in
Vista
Sunrise
2
projects,
so
that
helped
us
in
in
achieving
some
of
the
the
lower
income
units
that
are
necessary
for
this
planning
period
and
we
also
identified
adus
or
accessory
dwelling
units
as
helping
the
city
meet
our
lower
income
allocations.
P
So
there
were
a
total
of
34
accessory
Dawn
units
last
year
that
were
had
permits
issued,
and
so
lastly,
the
the
other
table.
That
probably
has
some
significance
is
sp9
units,
so
lot
splits
and
two
unit
developments
in
the
city
within
the
single-family
zoning
districts.
We
did
have
two
applications
in
2022,
but
there
was
no
reportable
information
that
we
reported
on
the
2022
report
because
those
were
not
issued
last
year.
So
we
expect
those
would
be
issued
or
have
been
issued
this
year,
but
to
go
back
to
the
arena
allocation
again.
P
F
P
F
Okay
and
when
we
get
to
the
other
item
that
was
pulled,
it's
the
housing
and
homeless
is
one
of
our
key
objectives
and
we
have
another
2
000
homes
to
build
by
2029
in
six
years,
so
this
often
comes
up
with
people
asking
about
density
and
whether
we
want
to
have
more
Open
Spaces,
which
we
do,
but
we
also
have
to
look
for
places
to
put
these
2000
homes
so
I.
Thank
you
for
the
work.
I
appreciate
it
I.
Just
thank
you.
P
So
we've
submitted
our
second
revision
to
our
housing
element
that
was
at
the
end
of
March,
so
we
hope
to
hear
back
from
the
state
at
the
end
of
this
month
to
get
the
green
light
to
adopt
our
housing
element.
So
if
we
do
get
a
green
light,
then
we
would
have
hearings
with
Planning,
Commission
and
Council
this
summer.
E
P
P
So
once
we
get
to
the
steering
committee,
we'll
hear
comments
and
look
at
potential
revisions
and
then
from
there
it
would
be
scheduled
for
Planning
Commission
after
well.
It's
part
of
there's
four
I
should
say:
there's
four
chapters
that
we're
updating.
So
the
laundry
settlement
is
one
of
those
chapters.
The
housing
element
is
another
and
then
the
circulation
and
safety
elements
are
also
part
of
the
update,
so
we're
kind
of
taking
each
one
at
a
time
and
so
how's
the
element
and
safety
element
have
been
drafted.
The
landing
settlement
is
now
drafted.
P
So
after
we
get
through
those
three
we're
going
to
bring
the
circulation
element
forward,
and
so
we
expect
probably
the
housing
element
to
occur
first,
because
that's
the
most
imminent
and
most
important,
given
the
timelines
that
the
state
has
statutorily.
So
that
would
come
forward
to
council
sooner
within
the
next
couple
months.
We
we
hope,
and
then
the
remainder
of
the
update
would
probably
occur
in
the
early
fall.
Q
I
was
just
going
to
touch
on
the
question
about
the
zoning,
so
following
that
we
do
have
Direction
and
included
in
our
draft
budget
money
to
begin
the
process
of
a
comprehensive
update
to
the
zoning
code,
so
that
would
then
implement
the
changes
that
we're
making
to
the
general
plan
and
through
that
comprehensive
process.
We
can
look
at
the
other
questions
that
you're
raising
today
in
terms
of
really
meaning
eliminating
barriers
to
housing,
production.
E
Thank
you,
I
look
forward
to
the
housing
element
coming
back
to
council,
and
then
we
can
have
some
of
those
conversations
about
proactively
planning
for
housing.
You
can
see
on
this
chart
the
council's
being
proactive
about
extremely
low,
very
low
low,
how
housing,
because
that's
traditional,
affordable
housing
and
we're
doing
incentives
there.
But
if
you
even
look
at
moderate
to
only
have
14
permitted
units
when
we
have
500
to
build,
is
concerning
so
I
look
forward
to
having
those
conversations
when
that
comes
back
to
us.
Thank
you
for
your
work
on
this.
A
Q
Thank
you,
I
would
just
add
you
know
we
are
certainly,
as
folks
are
coming
in,
to
begin
the
development
process.
We
are
absolutely
advocating
for
affordable
housing
development
where
we
can,
and
certainly
working
with
Jay's
team
and
some
of
our
housing
coordinators
looking
to
plug
them
into
available
funding.
It
is
a
difficult
conversation
and
that
we
establish
these
targets
and
then
there
aren't
a
lot
of
tools
to
help
them
pencil
it
out.
So
that's
something
we
need
to
to
work
at.
A
A
S
S
The
council
held
a
visioning
session
prior
to
the
adoption
of
this
fiscal
year
budget,
the
2223
fiscal
year
budget,
and
it
identified
four
priority
areas:
categories
of
quality
of
life,
environmental
stewardship,
Community
infrastructure
and
good
governance.
Within
those
four
categories,
there
were
15
goals
and
50
objectives
that
were
identified,
ranging
from
improving
homelessness
and
building
a
navigation
Center
to
enhancing
service
levels
and
creating
training
programs.
S
During
this
year's
visioning
session,
the
council
moved
to
a
two-year
strategic
plan
to
mirror
the
new
budget
format
that
we're
moving
to
a
biennial
budget
format.
The
council
also
focused
on
differentiating
between
Council
goals
and
objectives
and
staff
goals
and
objectives,
and
really
focused
on
the
purpose
of
the
Strategic
plan
to
convey
the
council's
highest
priorities
as
policy
makers.
S
So
with
that
in
mind,
the
council
recognized
that
this
that
the
goals
under
environmental
stewardship
and
good
governance
are
really
incorporated
into
the
objectives
of
staff
and
the
city
manager,
oversight
and
operations
and
service
levels
that
are
overseen
by
the
city
manager.
So
these
items
these
two
categories
and
those
objectives
and
goals
under
those
categories.
They
don't
go
away.
S
They
just
become
part
of
the
city,
manager's
oversight
and
our
day-to-day
operations,
and
they
were
incorporated
into
the
overall
major
themes
and
principles
that
the
city
has
so
environmental
stewardship
and
good
governance,
which
we
are
now
calling
Forward.
Thinking
governance
were
incorporated
into
the
theme:
social
Equity,
environmental,
stewardship
and
forward-thinking
governance
underpin
all
priorities,
programs
and
projects
for
the
city
of
Palm,
Springs
So,
based
on
Council
Direction.
The
Strategic
priorities
now
focus
on
two
major
categories:
quality
of
life
and
Community
infrastructure,
with
seven
goals
under
quality
of
life.
S
There
are
four
goals:
to
improve
homelessness:
crime
reduction,
improve
affordable
housing
and
economic
development
under
Community
infrastructure.
There
are
three
large
goals
to
improve
city
facilities,
work
on
the
five-year
Capital
Improvement
plan
and
Community
Design
Within
These
goals.
There
are
22
objectives
that
range
from
completing
the
navigation,
Center
to
continuing
advocacy
for
the
West
Valley
College
of
the
Desert
campus.
S
Similarly,
many
of
these
priorities
like
improving
homelessness
and
reducing
crime.
These
are
very
large
projects,
large-scale
priorities
that
may
remain
important
for
many
years
and
the
task
level
work
may
change,
but
the
priorities
May
remain.
So
with
that
staff
recommends
that
Council
affirm
that
the
priorities
you
set
during
that
session
have
been
accurately
reflected
in
the
attached
plan
and
receive
and
file
this
report
so
that
it
may
guide
us
as
we
work
on
budgeting
and
planning
work
for
the
next
two-year
budget
cycle.
Happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank.
F
I
just
wanted,
because
I've
had
some
some
comments
on
this
that
the
there
still
may
be
just
to
clarify.
There
still
may
be
Council
initiatives
that
fall
under
what
the
under
environmental
stewardship
and
other
other
things
that
are
really
following
onto
the
city
manager
that
we're
not
just
leaving
them
to
them.
We'll
have
we'll
have
specific
proposals
and
ordinance
and
agendas
that
will
fall
under
that
that
may
occur
in
the
next
two
years.
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
that.
E
You
I
have
a
request
and
seeing
where
council
is
on
this
and
remind
me
where
we
landed,
but
I
know
we
added
social
equity
and
environmental
and
sustainability
as
overarching
themes,
as
you
just
mentioned.
They're
here
listed
in
major
themes,
principles
but
they're
also
with
things
that
are
maybe
less
important
or
not.
E
So
my
motion
is
to
approve
the
Strategic
plan
as
presented,
but
add
the
overarching
principles
of
social
equity
and
environmental
and
sustainability,
separate
them
out
from
major
themes
and
principles
and
put
them
visual
on
the
graph
on
the
second
page,
either
above
or
below.
In
a
way
that
denotes
that
we
are
working
on
those
as
well
as
priorities.
G
I
also
heard
you
mention
possibly
having
it
stand
out
and
highlight
under
major
themes
and
principles:
I
like
it
standing
out
as
a
separate
line
item.
So
it
draws
more
attention
that
way,
instead
of
putting
it
in
the
boxes
to
get
lost
a
little
bit
but
I
I
do
like
having
it
stand
out
separately
under
major
themes
and
principles.
E
F
Agree,
I
would
have
it
as
part
as
part
of
the
graphic
somehow
I
mean
just
what's.
There
is
move
over
those
major
themes
and
principles,
the
social
Equity
environmental
stewardship.
As
to
a
you
can
put
the
rest
to
the
good,
forward-thinking
governance.
Put
that
whole
line
into
a
its
own
box
underneath.
R
A
A
F
This
came
up
last
meeting
at
Victoria.
Park
is
going
to
be
without
a
playground
for
for
a
year
they
actually
have
one
piece
of
public
art
and
the
whole
park
that
was
donated
from
Victoria
Canada
and
one
at
the
fire
station
across
the
street,
but
that
would
be
a
great
place
for
kid-friendly
interactive
public
art.
I
have
spoken
to
the
chair
of
the
Arts
commission.
I
think
he's
going
to
present
talk
to
the
commission
about
it,
but
hopefully
we
get
Council
support
for
Victoria
and
other
places
in
the
city.
F
F
Both
of
the
awardees
are
not
that
local
there's
one
out
of
Redlands
and
one
out
of
Diamond,
Bar,
California
and
I
think
I
know
the
Unions
would
like
us
to
have
more
local
workers.
I
think
we
all
for
our
economy
would
like
it
and
I
think
for
our
residents
would
so
I
brought
this
out.
Kim
Baker
had
raised
in
procurement
the
idea
of
having
more
local
Affairs
and
reaching
out
to
help
locals
understand
how
to
apply
for
contracts
with
the
city
and
I
think
this
is.
F
A
You
very
much
and
just
to
get
a
sense
from
Council
in
terms
of
providing
direction
to
Public
Arts
regarding
encouraging
art
throughout
the
city
is
their
support
for
that
from
Council
I
hear
I
see
a
nod
from
councilmember
hostage
I
support
that
as
well.
Okay,
just
so
that
staff
knows
all
right,
we
do
need
to
approve
the
consent,
calendar
items
that
were
not
pooled.
So
is
there
a
motion
to
accept
the
consent,
calendar
items
without
1D
One,
J,
One
K
and
one
n.
E
G
G
A
D
A
Q
Good
evening,
mayor
mayor,
Pro,
tem
and
members
of
council,
this
item
is
a
request
by
Celine
Palm
Springs
to
amend
a
prior
approved
plans
for
the
Dream
hotel,
which
was
first
approved
in
2007
and
was
last
seen
by
the
city
council
in
2019.
I'm,
going
to
focus
on
the
planning
changes
that
are
being
requested
tonight.
There
will
be
a
presentation
following
this
by
the
deputy
city
manager
and
attorney
Elizabeth
Hall,
to
talk
through
the
accompanying
agreement.
So
we'll
kind
of
pause,
take
questions
and
then
go
into
that.
Q
Q
Q
Q
The
project
has
been
amended
several
times
over
the
years,
most
recently
in
2019,
when
amendments
were
granted
by
the
council
to
facilitate
a
156
room
hotel
as
well
as
40
residential
units.
The
2019
Amendment
also
included
a
Farmhouse
Restaurant
and
event
space
at
the
southeast
corner
of
the
site.
Through
these
amendments,
the
footprint
and
height
of
the
hotel
itself
has
largely
stayed
the
same
while
the
location
and
Heights
of
the
other
residential
units
and
Associated
spaces
has
really
shifted
and
changed
throughout
the
site.
Q
Q
Second,
the
12
units
in
the
north
west
portion
of
the
site,
the
north
Villas,
will
be
reconfigured
into
two
condominium
buildings.
Previously
they
were
in
several
other
buildings
and
we'll
look
at
plans
in
a
second
and
lastly,
one
additional
unit
will
be
provided
in
the
residential
Tower
there'll,
be
no
change
to
the
overall
footprint
or
height
of
that
building
its
internal
reconfiguration
to
add
one
additional
height,
bringing
that
from
28
to
29
units.
Q
The
hotel
would
remain
unchanged
at
156
rooms
as
it
was
approved
in
2019,
and
there
will
be
other
changes
to
the
Landscaping
details
that
are
necessary
to
implement
the
overall
site
plan
changes
we're
talking
about
tonight.
This
will
all
be
if
it's
approved
tonight,
it
will
all
be
forwarded
to
the
Architectural
Review
Committee,
who
will
review
all
of
those
details.
Q
Q
Q
I
also
want
to
note
that,
in
their
decision,
the
Planning
Commission
required
that
the
North
and
South
Villa
buildings
be
reduced
in
height
by
six
feet
beyond
what
was
originally
requested
and
submitted
by
the
applicant.
So
the
heights
came
down
a
little
bit.
You
can
see
the
two
right
columns,
the
gray
column
to
the
right
was
the
original
submission
and
the
highlighted,
yellow
column
is
what
was
ultimately
approved
by
this
by
the
Planning
Commission
or
recommended
for
approval
by
the
Planning
Commission.
Q
I.
Do
also
want
to
note
just
you
know
in
your
in
your
report,
just
some
discrepancies-
and
this
relates
a
little
bit
to
how
the
parking
structures
are
being
related.
So
there's
a
lot
of
talk
about
the
number
of
stories
and
it
gets
a
little
bit
confusing
I
do
just
want
to
be
clear
that
although
the
heights
of
the
buildings
came
down
six
feet,
the
overall
number
of
habitable
residential
floors
remain
the
same
from
what
was
submitted
in
2022
and
what
the
Planning
Commission
approved.
Q
So
it
was
four
stories
of
Residential
Building
in
the
north
east,
the
north
Villas
and
three
stories
in
the
south
east
and
That
Remains,
the
Same.
The
buildings
have
just
come
down
in
height
by
six
feet,
all
right
to
give
some
visual
context.
Finally,
of
the
image
this
image
shows
the
2013
approved
plan,
where
you
can
see
that
there
were
28
foot
tall
Villas
on
the
top
left
part
of
the
site,
which
is
the
north
west
and
on
the
right
or
South
corner.
Q
You
can
see
the
50
Foot
Tall
residential
building
that
had
been
approved
back
then.
You
can
also
see
that
the
Morrison
Development
Across
Avenida
Caballeros,
has
not
yet
been
constructed
at
the
time
that
the
2013
amendments
were
occurring
and
here
we're
showing
a
comparison
between
the
2019
approved
site
plan
and
what
is
before
you
tonight.
Q
We
can
see
if
you
look
at
the
image
on
the
right,
the
five-story
three
sorry,
the
there
were
five
three-story
residential
buildings
approved
in
2019
called
the
north
Villas
have
been
Consolidated
into
two
main
buildings
of
four
stories,
and
so
the
red
underneath
is
showing
the
2019
approval.
And
then
the
current
proposal
is
kind
of
overlaid
over
that,
just
to
kind
of
give
you
some
comparison
of
the
layout
of
the
buildings
and
how
that's
changed.
Q
Q
All
right,
so
the
applicant
is
also
prepared
and
shared
schematics
that
compare
the
height
and
setback
of
the
previous
plan.
With
the
revised
proposal
on
this
slide,
you
can
see
the
elevation
of
the
north
Villas
as
proposed.
Today
again
we
have
the
red
massing
behind
it
to
show
you
what
was
approved
in
2019
superimposed
with
what
is
before
you
tonight.
The
buildings
have
been
designed
by
the
applicant
to
step
back
in
height
as
they
go
up
so
as
to
help
increase
the
setback
from
the
adjacent
Center
Court
community.
Q
Similarly,
we
have
a
similar
image
here
for
the
South
Villas,
so
you
can
see
in
red
the
original
two-story
height
of
The,
Farmhouse
and
event,
space
being
replaced
by
these
three-story
condominium
buildings
and
again
showing
how
the
buildings
attempt
to
step
back
to
to
provide
a
little
more
setback
from
the
adjacent
development
in
their
decision.
The
Planning
Commission
also
required
additional
Landscaping
to
provide
a
buffer
along
the
perimeter
of
the
property
line
adjacent
to
Center
Court.
These
images
show
their
view
from
the
property
line
towards
the
West,
with
the
proposed
buildings
and
Landscape
screening.
Q
So,
on
the
the
top
image
you
know
it's
not
showing
any
of
the
development
that's
being
proposed,
but
it's
very
faint.
You
can
see
sort
of
a
red
line
of
what
the
the
landscape
buffer
will,
as
required
by
the
Planning
Commission,
will
do
to
sort
of
provide
some
additional
screening
in
the
bottom
image.
Image
they've
also
rendered
in
the
proposed
buildings
to
sort
of
give
some
context,
and
we
have
a
similar
image
here
for
the
South
Villas.
Q
And
finally,
just
to
provide
some
additional
visual
context,
just
some
renderings
of
what
the
proposed
buildings
would
look
like.
So
this
is
the
north
Villas,
as
they
are
proposed
today
again
rising
up
to
four
stories,
with
the
parking
sort
of
being
provided
internally,
and
then
this
is
an
image
of
the
cell
fillers.
Q
The
Planning
Commission
conducted
two
hearings
on
this
last
fall,
so
the
first
at
its
first
meeting
on
September
14th.
They
had
a
discussion
that
primarily
centered
around
the
height
and
the
Landscaping,
as
well
as
the
impact
to
adjacent
Center
Court,
and
they
ask
that
the
applicant
go
back
and
reconsider
the
Heights
and
setbacks
of
the
buildings,
as
well
as
the
Landscaping
that
I
had
mentioned.
It
returned
to
the
Planning
Commission
on
September
28th,
with
revised
plans
where
the
heights
had
come
down
to
six
feet.
Q
That
I
had
mentioned,
as
well
as
some
of
the
images
showing
the
landscape,
buffering
that
that
you
were
in
the
previous
images,
and
that
was
what
was
recommended
for
approval
by
the
Planning
Commission,
and
so
that
is
what
is
before
you
tonight.
Their
recommendation
so
to
conclude,
staff
are
recommending
approval
with
the
conditions
included
in
your
packages,
reflecting
the
changes
that
were
made
by
the
Planning
Commission.
If
approved.
As
I
mentioned.
This
will
go
to
the
Architectural
Review
Committee
for
the
review,
and
that
concludes
my
presentation.
Q
Q
F
T
F
T
So
when
the
council
first
approved
the
project
way
back
in
2007,
a
mitigated,
negative
Declaration
was
certified
that
doesn't
expire,
but
in
addition
to
that
there
was
an
addendum
to
that
in
2013
and
because
there
hasn't
been
any
significant
changes
to
the
project
itself
or
new
information.
That
was
not
analyzed
the
very
first
time
so
the
same
environmental
document
still
controls.
Q
E
Q
Q
G
Q
Well,
I
think
you're,
seeing
the
ground
floor
plan
there.
So
there
are
portions
of
the
building
that
certainly
extend
further
closer
to
the
property
line
than
they
did
previously
in
2019.
But
if
you
go
down
to
the
the
the
the
elevation
view,
the
buildings
start
to
set
back
where
buildings
had
previously
been
proposed
to
provide
additional
distance
in
some
locations.
But
you
are
right.
There
are
portions
of
this
area
that
will
become
closer
to
Center
Court
than
had
been
approved
in
2019.
G
G
Q
G
But
I
think
weren't,
the
the
42
foot,
I
I,
think
from
the
original
seemed
like
it
was
more
compatible
with
the
neighborhood,
because
there
was
row
there
was
Road,
you
had
rows
and
it
it
seemed
like
it
didn't
intrude
as
much
as
this.
This
pic
this
design
is
going
to
be
on
that.
Just
that
corner
piece.
It's
just
that
corner
section
that
that
I
I
think
I've
got
concern
on
council.
A
Q
E
Holstich,
thank
you
so
going
back
to
that
chart
that
councilmember
de
heart
was
asking
about
the
height,
so
it
went
from
26
feet
in
2019
to
52
feet
as
submitted
and
then
46
as
approved
by
Planning
Commission
I'm,
not
a
builder.
So
it's
26
feet
two
stories
and
then
46
would
be
four
stories.
Is
that
right,
correct.
E
Q
E
U
Middleton,
thank
you
and
Chris.
Thank
you
for
the
report.
My
questions
are
probably
more
directed
at
the
City
attorney
but
I'm.
Looking
at
page
10
and
Page
11
of
the
staff
report
and
before
I
asked
these
questions.
I
hope
this
project
does
get
completed,
but
I
am
going
to
ask
these
questions,
given
the
fact
that
the
for
this
first
came
to
us
in
2007.
U
V
W
W
W
So
if
they
miss
a
milestone
in
the
agreement,
there's
it
would
be
a
default.
The
city
would
then
give
them
written
notice
that
they've
missed
a
milestone
in
the
schedule.
Developer
has
30
days
to
cure
or
commence
to
diligently
pursue
a
cure.
So
if
it's
not
something
that
can
be
done
in
30
days,
they
they
have
the
reasonable
amount
of
time
to
do
it.
If
they
don't
cure
the
default.
W
U
V
Madam
mayor,
if
I
might
we
will
be
doing
a
separate
presentation
on
the
settlement
and
development
agreement
as
well
as
the
timeline
later
on?
What
I
thought
might
be
helpful
is
if
you
discuss
the
changes
to
the
site
plan,
First,
Take
public
comment
on
both
the
site
plan
and
the
agreement,
and
then,
after
you
conclude
your
discussions
about
the
changes
to
the
site
plan,
we
can
go
into
the
agreement,
but
if
you'd
like
to
take
them
both
at
the
same
time
again
we're
happy
to
do
that
as
well.
W
We
would
do
both
staff
reports
first
and
then
take
public
comment,
because
you
or
you
can
you
can
recess
your
public
hearing
and
then
have
the
second
staff
report
and
then
reopen
it
and
take
multiple
comments.
It
really
depends
on
whether
or
not
you
want
to
do
two
rounds
of
public
comment
or
just
one
we'll.
A
V
W
Sure
so
is
the
council's
aware.
This
has
been
an
ongoing
project.
You've
had
an
agreement
since
2013..
We
got
to
a
point.
There's
been
11
amendments
to
this
agreement
that
last
Amendment
came
to
Council
in
January
of
2020,
so
amendment
number
10
had
given
the
developer
until
February
1
2020
to
commence
continuous
construction
of
the
core
and
shell
at
the
hotel
project.
They
were
also
supposed
to
have
submitted
proof
of
financing
by
that
February
1
2020
date.
They
came
to
the
city.
W
We
should
have
notice
of
anticipatory
default
in
January.
They
came
back
to
the
city
in
January
of
2020
and
asked
for
90
days
to
provide
a
new
Milestone
schedule
and,
to
you
know,
give
us
an
idea
of
their
financing
and
and
those
sorts
of
issues.
The
city
agreed
to
that
in
amendment
number
11
to
the
original
purchase
and
sale
agreement.
W
That
excuse
me
that
amendment
was
for
a
90-day
period.
Covet
shut
down
happened
in
in
March
of
2020,
so
shortly
into
this
period
on
April
2nd
of
2020,
the
city
agreed
with
the
developer.
That
covid
was
a
forced,
major
event
that
was
inhibiting
or
prohibiting
them
from
proceeding
with
the
project.
At
that
time,
the
city
had
declared
an
emergency
on
March
14th,
so
using
that
date
as
the
day
that
the
forest
major
event
occurred.
W
The
city
agreed
that
there
were
49
days
remaining
on
the
90
days
and
once
the
forced
measure
event
ended,
the
developer
would
have
90
days
or
I'm
sorry
49
days
remaining
to
complete
the
Milestone
schedule
and
and
come
into
compliance
with
the
agreement
on
August
12th
of
2021,
the
city
informed
the
developer
that
the
city
had
determined
the
force
major
event
had
ended
and
they
had
49
days
to
commence
construction
or
provide
a
new
schedule.
The
developer
disagreed
with
that.
W
Instead
of
proceeding
to
litigation
at
that
point,
the
council
directed
us
to
work
on
a
new
understanding
with
the
developer,
and
so
that's
what
we've
done
and
what
is
before
you
this
evening.
It
is
a
settlement
and
development
agreement
and
it
ends
the
previous
agreement
that
had
the
11
amendments
and
sort
of
sets.
The
table
Anew
included
in
here
is
a
waiver
of
all
claims
against
either
party.
W
They
were
both
waiving
our
claims
related
to
the
old
agreement
and
the
old
interactions
and
then
sets
out
a
new
development
development
schedule
and
then
some
of
the
financing
and
other
things
that
council
member
Milstead
had
asked
about.
So
that's
really,
what's
before
you
this
evening,
we
can
go
into
more
details
on
the
agreement
if
you
want,
but
basically
it
just
sets
out
that
we
waive
all
our
claims
against
each
other
and
then
sets
forth
a
new
development
schedule,
and
then
it
sets
forth
new
limitations
or
or
steps.
F
There
are
certain
things:
inability
to
obtain
labor
or
materials,
inability
to
obtain
government
permits
or
approvals
now
with
the
government
Pro
that
just
me
provided
that
they've
made
so
inability
to
obtain
government
permits
or
approvals
that
is
due
to
the
government
or
fault
not
theirs.
Is
that
correct.
W
That's
not
going
to
be
a
force
measure
event,
so
they
need
to
have
done
everything
within
their
power
to
get
the
permit
and
if
we
or
if
they
need
one
from
the
water
district-
or
you
know
some
Flood
Control
District
whomever
if
they
need
some
approval
from
a
government
mental
agency
and
that
government
governmental
agency
is
incapable
of
issuing
it.
Okay,
then
the
first
preserve
would
take
place
okay,
but
they
have
to
have
done
their
part.
Okay,.
F
W
W
F
W
X
F
And
then
on
page
127,
which
is
sort
of
and
may
128
where
we
talk
about
maintenance
of
the
property
and
graffiti,
the
one
question
I
had
is
because
you
have
pretty
strict,
you
know
they
have
to
do
things
within
five
days
and
and
all
of
that,
but
it
does
seem
that
there
might.
If
there
was
a,
are
they
obligated
to
be
checking
the
site
themselves,
or
does
this
rely
upon
the
city
saying,
hey,
you've
got
graffiti.
W
So
there
is
a
general
obligation
in
here
for
them
to
maintain
the
site.
So,
yes,
they
need
to
be
checking
it,
but
if
there
is
graffiti
or
something
on
the
site,
that's
not
acceptable
and
we're
aware
of
it.
We
raise
it
with
them.
Then
the
five
days
kicks
in
to
resolve
it.
Yes,
should
be
actively
monitoring
the
site.
Okay,.
F
And
then
there's
a
question
about
the
security,
which
is
mainly
there's
no
actual
on-site
security,
but
there's
cameras
and
you
have
to
answer
the
phone
within
24
hours.
Is
that
right,
that's
correct,
so
is
there?
Is
there
any
way
to
just
have
them
check
it
once
in
a
while,
while
and
before
they
convince
Construction.
W
E
I
thought
I
knew
about
Force
Major
until
from
law
school
until
we
were
governing
during
a
pandemic,
and
we
saw
a
lot
of
projects.
So
can
you
explain
more
inability
to
obtain
labor
or
materials
so
I
know
we
have
a
number
of
City
projects
where
we
do
have
the
inability
to
obtain
a
material
for
six
months
or
longer
because
of
existing
disruptions
in
the
supply
chain.
W
So
there
is
a
representation
in
here
that
both
parties
are
making
that
we
agree
that
there
is
no
Force
major
event
as
of
today
or
when
this
is
approved.
So
it
would
have
to
be
some
new
circumstance.
That's
Arisen,
since
this
agreement
was
executed,
that
creates
an
inability
to
get
the
material
that
they're
after.
E
Okay,
I'll
think
more
about
that,
because
I'm
concerned
that,
starting
tomorrow,
if
this
is
approved
and
there's
an
inability
to
obtain
any
materials
for
six
to
months
to
a
year
like
there
would
be
for
any
city
project.
That,
then,
are
you
saying
you're
you're,
not
sure.
If
this
would
go
into
effect,
then.
W
So
if
they
go
to
order
something
tomorrow,
yes,
they
need
a
computer
chip
and
it
is
not
available.
It's
not
just
hard
to
get,
but
it's
completely
unavailable
that
that
that
may
rise
to
a
level
of
a
forced
measure
event
we
could
add
in
a
condition
that
requires
them
to
pre-procure
anything
that
as
of
30
days
from
today,
they
have
a
concern
about
it's,
not
something
I've
discussed
with
them,
but
that
would
address
the
issue
that
you're
raising.
Thank
you.
W
E
W
Correct
correct
so
right
now
we're
saying
that
there
is
no
Force
major
event.
The
state
of
emergency
in
the
city
has
ended,
the
state
of
emergency
and
the
state
has
ended.
The
federal
government
has
ended
the
state
of
emergency
and
the
World
Health
Organization
declared
this
week
that
the
pandemic
is
is
either
over
or
coming
to
an
end
within
the
next
few
weeks.
V
As
you're
aware,
you
do
have
a
visual
of
the
timeline
of
the
PowerPoint
I'm,
sorry
of
the
schedule
in
your
packets,
a
little
bit
difficult
to
read,
as
I've
heard
from
a
number
of
the
city,
council,
members
and
members
of
the
public
as
well,
and
so
that's
why
I
want
to
go
through
that
verbally
with
you
this
evening,
I
will
tell
you
that
the
original
PDF
of
the
timeline
is
legible.
As
long
as
you
blow
it
up
in
your
Adobe
Reader.
V
In
terms
of
the
timeline,
there
are
actually
four
major
construction
phases
as
part
of
the
project.
The
first
part
of
that
is
relative
to
the
site,
work
which
includes
the
site,
grading
and
the
Civil
improvements
to
the
site.
The
second
phase
is
the
core
and
shell
of
the
hotel
building.
The
third
phase
is
relative
to
the
Villas,
and
the
fourth
phase
is
I'm.
V
We've
had
meetings
with
staff
to
review
that
to
identify
if
there's
any
incomplete
elements
and
I
believe
we're
ready
to
issue
that
if
we
haven't
already,
and
so
that
is
already
in
process,
there
is
a
second
permit
or
permits
that
are
required
relative
to
the
Civil
improvements,
which
include
the
utilities
on
the
site.
Reviewing
the
hydrology
plan
and
other
Associated
site
improvements,
as
well
as
the
off-site
improvements
per
the
schedule.
V
They
would
be
required
to
submit
the
permits
for
those
it's
that
second
phase
of
civil
improvements
in
October
of
this
year,
and
then
those
permits
would
be
issued
in
November
in
terms
of
the
construction
start
that
I've
identified
there
in
August
of
23.
That
would
be
the
start
of
the
grading
work.
They
would
start
the
Civil
improvements
in
November
this
year
after
they've
secured
those
permits
with
all
of
these.
In
this
phase
to
be
completed
by
September
of
2024.
V
moving
on
to
the
next
phase,
this
is
the
hotel
Tower
and
its
Associated
condo
Tower.
They
have
a
timeline
here
of
March
of
2023
to
December
of
2026
and
that's
the
full
timeline
from
permitting
to
completion
of
construction.
They've
already
begun
work
on
updating
their
corn,
shell
drawings
for
the
hotel
building.
As
you're
aware,
they
already
have
the
foundation
of
the
whole
hotel
building
in
place,
however,
because
of
minor
changes
to
that,
they
are
required
to
update
those
drawings.
V
What
is
intended
is
that
the
core
and
shell
permit
will
be
submitted
in
October
of
this
year
and
then
the
remainder
of
the
building,
which
means
finishing
the
exterior,
as
well
as
the
interior
improvements
of
the
hotel
building
the
permits
for
that
would
then
be
submitted
in
March
of
2024.
They
would
then
begin
construction
on
the
Corin
shell,
in
September
of
24
and
February
of
25
for
the
exterior
and
interior
improvements,
with
the
entire
building
completed
by
December
of
2026.
V
The
next
phase
is
the
north
Villas
phase.
Three
of
that,
the
timeline
that
they're
giving
you
there
is
from
August
of
2023
to
December
of
2026
permit
submittal,
for
that
is
in
July
of
2024
approval
by
December.
One
of
the
things
that
is
also
accounted
for
in
this
schedule
is
they
do
need
to
go
through
Architectural
Review
as
part
of
that
process
for
both
the
North
and
South
Villas,
so
that
is
accounted
in
this
schedule.
V
One
of
the
things
that
I
didn't
talk
about
yet
is
this
is
one
of
the
elements
that's
included
as
part
of
the
agreement
is
that
they
have
to
have
proof
of
financing
for
three
distinct
phases
of
this
development.
The
first
is
relative
to
their
site
work.
They
must
show
proof
of
financing
for
that
initial
phase
to
us
as
part
of
the
permit
issuance
process.
V
The
next
phase,
which
is
the
core
and
shell
of
the
hotel
building.
They
must
submit
proof
of
financing
for
that
as
part
of
the
permitting
process
there
and
then
for
the
Final
Phase,
which
includes
the
North
and
South
Villas
and
the
interior
and
facade
improvements
to
the
hotel.
They
would
then
at
that
stage
need
to
present
proof
of
financing
to
City
staff
at
that
phase.
So
not
only
do
you
have
milestones
for
submitting
permits
obtaining
permits,
beginning
Construction
and
finishing
construction.
V
You
also
have
three
financing
Milestones
that
are
part
of
this
timeline
and
schedule,
and
that
is
part
of
the
agreement
that
you
have
before
you
this
evening
with
that.
That
concludes
my
portion
of
the
presentation
on
the
timeline
and
mayor
will
go
ahead
and
take
any
additional
questions.
You
might
have
the.
F
Just
a
question
on
the
financing
is
and
I
don't
know
again:
I'm,
not
a
lawyer
or
this
house.
How
are
there
different
types
of
like
strong
financing
letters,
or
is
there
a?
How
do
we
make
sure
that
that,
when
each
section
that
we,
when
they
have
the
financing
that
it's
actually
going
to
get
completed,
this.
V
W
W
F
A
A
Y
Y
So
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
and
I
appreciate
your
patience
and
your
willingness
to
work
with
us
and
I
appreciate
that
the
community
has
put
up
with
not
a
very
attractive
site.
We've
tried
to
keep
it
clean.
We
do
weed
it
regularly.
We
paint
over
graffiti
we've
changed
out
the
fencing
we
do
our
best,
but
it's
very
very
much
so
that
the
community
and
I'm
not
sure
who
has
taken
to
writing
us
messages
on
the
fence
which
we're
trying
to
deal
with
all
the
time.
Y
But
that
being
said,
I
wanted
to
talk
about
three
areas:
one,
what
we've
done:
Through
the
Ages
to
try
to
accommodate
our
neighbors
to
what
the
setbacks
are
and
some
of
the
changes
to
the
height.
So
first,
since
we've
done
this
project,
we
originally
started.
This
particular
design
was
a
single
building
and
due
to
some
comments,
we
separated
that
into
two
buildings
and
created
a
view
quarter
through
the
two
main
buildings.
We
also
set
it
back
170
feet
such
that
nobody
was
had
this
imposing
building
sitting
on
top
of
them.
Y
We
agreed
to
putting
in
a
hedge
along
the
entire
perimeter
of
the
site
where
Center
Court
is
located
between
8
and
10
feet,
which
would
help
block
sound
any
visuals
of
the
hotel
Etc,
and
we
did
do
a
study
where
we
went
up
to
the
height
of
the
condominium
building
to
ensure
that
we
didn't
see
into
the
Center
Court,
where
their
landscape
and
their
pool
and
their
tennis
courts
are,
and
in
fact
the
funny
thing
is.
The
only
backyard
that
gets
Disturbed
is
mine,
which
I
think
is
kind
of
ironic.
Y
We
designed
all
the
drives
such
that
the
entrance
and
exit
is
off
Alvarado
so
that
any
traffic
into
the
site
you
know
guests
coming
in
and
leaving
Disturbed
as
few
residents
on
at
Center
Court
and
also
put
the
traffic
from
the
hotel
onto
a
street.
That's
less
traveled
rather
than
Caballeros
such
that
the
entrance
off
cavaliaris
is
purely
for
back
of
house
services.
Y
We
replaced
all
of
the
windows
and
Sliders
at
Center
Court,
early
on
with
double
pane,
sliders
and
windows,
to
mitigate
any
sound
disturbance
that
may
have
had
that
is
actually
completed.
We
in
conditioned
and
enclosed
our
back
of
house
and
we
placed
all
of
the
activity
levels
like
restaurants
and
bars
on
the
west
facing
facade
and
ensured
that
what
is
ever
on
the
east
facing
facade
was
all
quiet
activity,
so
those
are
kind
of
the
things
we've
tried
to
do.
Y
In
addition,
as
a
result
of
the
Planning
Commission
meeting,
we
looked
at
the
heights,
we
cannot
give
up
unit
count
and
square
footage
for
sale
right
now.
Hotel
financing
is
very,
very
difficult
and
we
are
financing
this
as
a
residential
project
which
has
a
small
hotel
component,
comparatively
speaking
from
a
financing
perspective.
Y
However,
from
the
Dollar's
perspective,
the
hotel
we
actually
received
our
first
bid
today
from
a
GC
is
200
and
plus
million
dollars,
just
over
200
million
dollars,
of
which
130
million
dollars
of
that
is
the
hotel
and
the
grounds,
and
the
remainder
is
the
condominium.
So
you
can
see
that
the
Condominiums
carry
a
huge
load
in
reducing
the
debt
on
the
hotel
to
a
serviceable
level.
Y
That's
very
important
for
us
to
be
able
to
get
this
project
done,
but
in
regards
to
the
to
the
Planning
Commission
Commons,
we
took
the
north
condos
down
four
feet.
Ten
inches
actually
I
heard
six,
but
it's
actually
four
feet:
ten
inches
245
feet,
2
inches
by
lowering
the
height
of
each
of
the
condo
units,
the
ceiling
height
and
the
reason
it
is
now
four
stories
is:
it
sits
to
make
it
the
kind
of
project
that
can
Garner
the
per
square
foot
price
selling.
It's
my
time
over.
Y
Z
Thank
you
mayor
Greiner
and
city
council.
My
name
is
Don
Burkett
I
am
a
homeowner
here
and
I'm.
Also
the
vice
president
of
the
homeowners
association
for
Center
Court,
a
very
interesting
process
tonight,
great
questions
and
I.
Really
thank
you
for
those
now.
First
of
all,
we
would
like
to
state
that
we
are
in
favor
of
the
Dream
hotel
and
is
joining
properties
here
before
the
2019
plans
were
approved
by
city
council
city
council
person.
Z
Z
Z
Please
be
aware
that
the
planning
commission's
approval
of
the
revisions
3A
tune
a
may
have
been
different.
Had
the
entire
commission
been
present,
commissioner
Roberts
was
eloquent
in
his
opposition
to
the
height
of
the
proposed
changes.
What
was
not
present
on
the
last
vote
at
no
point
has
a
simple
majority
of
four
Commissioners
approved
of
this
plan.
Z

AA
AA
Center
Court
yeah,
yeah,
Center,
okay,
look
at
that
and
student.
The
diagram
shows
Center
Court
in
blue
between
Avenida
Caballeros
and
Alvarado.
We
have
four
condo
units
facing
the
property
line.
All
one
story,
each
at
13.8
feet,
high
I,
live
in
one
of
these
units
on
the
left
side
in
tan
is
the
2019
approved
plan,
12
condo
units
split
among
three
two-story
buildings
and
two
three-story
buildings.
The
building
immediately
in
front
of
my
condo
is
two
stories
high
at
25.8
feet.
AA
Three-Story
buildings
were
to
the
west
of
Center
Court
at
37.9
feet.
The
placement
and
height
of
the
buildings
was
respectful
and
within
an
appropriate
scale,
with
the
existing
property
on
the
right
are
the
22
2022
proposed
changes
still
12
condo
units,
but
the
reconfiguration
is
dramatically
different,
most
notable
two
buildings
instead
of
five,
both
at
a
height
of
46.2
feet.
These
condos
are
four
stories
high
facing
my
unit,
just
51
feet
from
the
property
line,
the
count
of
12
units
approved
in
2019
the
count
of
12
units
approved
in
2019
Remains,
the
Same.
AA
H
H
H
We
understand
the
need
to
move
the
project
forward
with
24
condo
units
replacing
the
event
space
but
reconfiguring
those
12
condos
on
the
Northeast
section
to
suffer
to
suffocate
our
residences
should
be
as
unacceptable
to
you
as
it
is
to
us,
though,
we
expect
that
the
developer
will
have
numerous
reasons
why
the
Northeast
section
needs
to
be
built,
as
proposed.
Currently,
the
2019
approved
plan
for
that
section
addresses
our
concerns
and
keeps
the
condo
unit
count
at
12.,
as
currently
newly
proposed
our
units
along
the
property
line
will
be
suffocated.
Thank
you.

The
three-story
Condo
building
is
completely
in
line
with
our
guest
parking
and
our
driveway,
nothing
more.
It
does
not
obscure
anything.
It
is
set
far
enough
back
and
so
the
drawing
that
you
saw
earlier
that
made
it
look
like
that.
Three-Story
building
is
right
up
against
the
property
line
facing
us
is
not,
and
this
comes
from
the
developer.
I
did
not
make
this
drawing
okay,
now
Fade
to
Black.
X
This
is
what
is
proposed,
and
this
is
what
you're
voting
on
two
buildings.
Each
four
stories
high
46.2
feet
high
directly
across
from
our
one
story:
units
it's
just
too
darn
High,
all
the
posters
and
all
the
statistics
and
numbers
we've
used
have
all
been
vetted.
We've
vetted
them
very
carefully.
This
drawing
was
actually
supplies
by
the
developer
and
I
just
re-jiggered
it
okay.
So
if
there's
any
question
about
this,
please
vet.
What
you
hear
please
do
not
approve
the
Northeast
section
and
stick
with
2019.
AB
Better
mayor
council
members,
my
name
is
Craig
with
I
also
live
at
Center
Court,
and
about
two
and
a
half
years
ago
my
wife
and
I
went
to
see
the
unit
that
we
eventually
bought
and
we
saw
the
the
empty
lot
and
with
the
Mounds
of
dirt
and
the
The
Rusted
re-bob
and
everything
very
concerned
about
it.
We
went
to
City,
Hall
came
here,
went
to
planning
and
they
showed
us
the
2019
plan
we
decided
to
buy.
Based
upon
that
plan,
we
were
we're
very
happy
about
the
hotel.
AB
That
is
not
an
issue,
but
the
changes
in
the
north
side,
with
the
condos
being
that
high
is
a
very
big
issue
to
us.
Now.
You
know
one
of
the
things
I've
noticed
tonight
is.
It
appears
that
the
developer
has
been
given
a
lot
of
leeway
for
a
long
time.
The
can
kicked
on
the
road,
and
you
know
we're
looking
for
the
same
type
of
emphasis
put
on
the
the
residents
as
well.
It's
obviously
the
developer
has
gotten
a
lot
of
leeway.
AB
One
of
the
things
I
heard
earlier
too
was
talk
about
cameras
on
the
site.
I
personally
have
never
seen
cameras.
You
know.
I
took
this
photo
today,
the
homeless
living
on
the
site.
So
if
this
camera
is
there,
certainly
no
one's
monitoring
them
or
checking
them
at
all,
so
I
asked
you
to
vote
no
on
this
project.
Thank
you.
AC
Thank
you,
you'll,
be
glad
to
know.
I
have
no
things
up
here.
Honorable
mayor
city,
council,
I'm,
David
Powell
an
owner
at
Center
Court
once
again,
10
years
ago
from
starting
10
years
ago,
returned
to
you
regarding
the
Dream
Hotel
I
wish
before
tonight.
You
could
have
walked
our
property
where
you
would
learn
our
homeowner's
visual
perspective
and
not
those
of
drawings
are
hearsay.
It's
also
unfortunate
that
the
staff
presentation
appears
to
be
skewed
to
favor
the
developer
and
not
bring
in
multiple
facts
and
concerns
that
have
been
raised.
AC
Prior
specifically,
the
piece
the
Planning
Commission
asked
for
larger
height
reductions,
but
a
3-2
vote
approved
only
six
feet.
Also,
staff
continues
to
compare
the
original
to
the
original
2007..
That
was
the
original
entitlement
that
the
developer
was
provided
and
had
the
whole
footprint.
The
projects
in
2013
started
only
as
a
hotel
with
short-term
meeting
Bungalows
to
support
the
convention
center.
Then
it
evolved
to
include
high-priced
condos
and
one
entire
wing
and
less
hotel
rooms
now
to
apparently
make
the
project
financially
valuable
to
the
developer.
AC
There
needs
to
be
more
masking
of
condos
on
the
Northern
section
of
the
property
and
additional
development
of
unsightly
and
Tall
Condominiums
built
starting
at
the
corner
of
Amado
and
Caballeros.
The
masking
these
condos
not
only
is
not
only
at
a
place
for
the
neighborhood,
but
was
struck
the
views
from
at
least
a
quarter
of
our
complex.
That
section
14
specific
plan
mentions
the
importance
of
you
corridors
saying
retaining
these
views
of
mountains
will
help
to
enhance
the
quality
of
the
environment
and
experience
of
section
14..
AC
Of
course,
the
new
condos
and
the
hotel
guests
will
have
the
delightful
views
of
the
mountains
that
the
residents
of
Center
Court
will
lose.
I
still
cannot
get
over
the
fact
that
for
a
project
that
has
had
numerous
iterations,
there
has
been
no
formal
eir
done
on
this
project,
but
uses
the
same
neg
deck
for
the
last
16
years.
That
has
inconsistencies.
There
are
much
greater
traffic,
sound
and
visual
impacts
than
what
it
states
and
that
of
the
Apparently
2017
update.
AC
We
continue
to
go
through
these
project
iterations,
with
little
enhancements
to
benefit
the
residents
of
a
complex,
that's
been
in
place
since
1978..
Finally,
we
know
that
additional
housing
is
needed,
but
is
it
in
the
form
of
24,
potentially
1.5
million
or
more
dollar
condos?
That
is
not
the
intent
of
the
thoughtful
future
housing
plan
to
be
implemented
by
the
city.
Please
take
the
project
back
to
the
approved
2019
plan,
which,
although
not
perfect,
was
at
least
an
apparent
compromise
to
move
forward,
and
let's
get
it
done.
Thank
you.
Thank.
AD
Hi,
my
name
is
David
thielens
and
I'm,
a
resident
at
the
Seoul
Community
across
caviaras
from
the
site
and
I'm
here
to
give
full
support
for
this
project.
I'm,
sorry
for
those
who
bought
a
cross
from
an
empty
lot,
I
do
not
believe
views
are
guaranteed
in
Palm,
Springs
I
know
that
from
personal
experience
and
the
fact
that
they
have
a
building
looming
over
them.
I'm.
Sorry,
it's
tough
luck.
AD
I
want
you
to
weigh
the
number
of
jobs,
the
tax
benefits
and
getting
rid
of
an
eyesore
I'm,
tired
of
looking
at
the
weed
store
on
site.
The
sidewalk
on
the
north
side
of
Amado
has
been
closed
ever
since
I've
lived
here
for
the
past
four
years.
There
are
so
many
benefits
to
this
that
a
handful
of
people
should
not
be
allowed
to
stop
what
will
be
a
benefit
to
the
community,
to
the
to
the
tax
base
and
to
employment.
This
we
need
jobs.
AD
We
need
the
kind
of
jobs
that
hotels
provide,
they're,
not
skilled
jobs.
They
are
lower
income,
jobs,
so
I'm,
sorry
for
Center
Court.
They
feel
impacted,
I'm
surprised
at
the
amount
of
work
the
developer
has
done
and
replacing
their
windows
and
Sliders,
and
still
they
are
not
happy
development
happens.
You
buy
a
cross
from
an
empty
lot.
If
you
wanted
to
determine
what
was
it
going
to
be
built
there,
you
should
have
bought
the
lot
yourself.
I
want
you
to
give
serious
thought
to
improving
this
project
as
proposed.
AD
A
Y
So
a
couple
of
things
looking
at
their
graphs,
it's
very
hard
to
see
the
architecture
from
blocks
that
say
that
they
are
looming
buildings
I
want
to
say
that
in
fact,
the
buildings
are
designed
to
set
back
such
that
the
heights
that
at
the
maximum
are
towards
the
center
of
the
project.
If
you
really
look
at
the
architecture,
the
other
thing
is
to
say
that
in
fact,
from
the
two
single
story-
condominiums
in
Center
Court,
even
a
two-story
building
at
the
setback
that
we
had
originally
would
block
their
views.
Y
Y
I
think
a
football
field
is
300
feet
on
the
south
Villas
it's
a
hundred
feet
from
the
Center
Court
apartments
or
condos
to
our
first
floor
of
our
condo,
which
is
only
two
feet
high,
which
is
the
top
of
the
sunken
garage
and
again,
the
buildings
stepped
back.
We've
tried
in
the
creation
of
them
to
create
garden
spaces
and
visual
quarters.
Y
Second
of
all,
in
regards
to
the
mnd,
the
m
d
and
the
environmental
work,
when
it
was
done
back
in
I,
don't
remember
the
year,
it
already
anticipated
our
project,
Soul
being
built,
Morrison
being
built
and
the
convention
center,
so
it's
not
modified
or
the
amount
of
traffic
is
not
changing.
Our
original
project
when
that
was
done,
included
150
condos
and
a
much
larger
hotel,
I
think
that
they
covered
in
the
beginning.
Y
Y
A
U
U
Y
The
five
buildings
that
were
there
before
did
not
have
parking
they
had
to
park
under
the
hotel
and
walk
from
the
hotel
underground
parking
up
to
their
units
to
be
able
to
get
the
right
price
for
those
we
had
to
include
parking
so
we're
putting
them
on
Podium.
That's
the
primary
difference.
The
number
of
units
in
size
hasn't
changed
much.
It's
just
now,
sitting
on
a
on
a
parking
podium
that
has
both
guest
parking
and
parking
for
all
the
units.
E
Thank
you,
I
have
a
question
for
the
City
attorney:
we've
required
bonding
or
personal
guarantees
for
other
projects
to
ensure
that
they
go
forward.
So
can
you
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
discussions
with
the
developers
about
that
I
know
our
public
has
asked
a
long
time
for
bonding
or
guarantees
to
ensure
financing,
so
I
know
you've
taken
some
steps
that
you
discussed
about
financing
requirements.
But
could
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
that?
Please.
E
Are
you
asking
me
probably
not
since
you're
a
City
attorney
and
but
you've
done
the
most
discussions
with
the
no
you're
great
I'm
sure
you
have
an
answer,
but
I
guess
an
attorney
I
would
not
have
the
answer
for
that.
But
you've
had
a
number
of
discussions
with
the
applicant.
You
were
relaying
what
they've
told
you
and
my
question
was:
if
City
staff
has
an
analysis
of
what
they've
told
you.

feet
three
inches
to
the
first
and
second
floor
and
it's
82
feet
three
inches
to
the
third
floor
on.
G
But
you
know,
I
think
the
entire
project
is
I
think
is,
is
embraced
by
universally
I.
Think
I
haven't
I,
don't
hear
complaints
and
it's
a
beautiful
project.
So
at
the
hotel,
the
new,
the
South
Condominiums,
you
know
the
grounds
everything
everything
is
is
fabulous.
The
only
challenge
that
that
I
keep
hearing
is
is
this.
Y
Y
Y
So
the
first
floor
level
is
50
feet.
The
second
level
is
62
feet.
You
can
see
the
step
back
for
those
two
I
I
didn't
do
it
all.
There
is
a
drawing
here.
Let
me
see
down
below
where
you
can
look
at
it
all,
so
you
can
see
how
it
steps
back
to
the
mechanical
screen
at
the
top.
It's
110
feet
to
the
fourth
floor
at
76.6
feet
at
the
highest
levels.
Y
Y
Y
E
Hi,
thank
you
have
a
question
for
you.
If
I
can
miss
Kibby
the
event
space,
could
you
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
need
for
the
event
space
and
I
understand
you
need
Condos
for
the
financing
of
the
hotel.
Obviously,
the
city's
interest
in
this
is
a
Convention
Center,
Hotel
and
Convention
Center
amenities.
So
the
city
is
less
interested
in
condos,
though
we
are
interested
in
the
project
moving
forward
and
being
completed.
E
So
could
you
just
talk
a
little
a
little
bit
about
I
know
that
the
event
space
and
the
event
talking
to
other
hoteliers
and
the
city
knowing
events
have
changed
and
the
needs
for
events
have
changed
at
hotels.
But
could
you
just
speak
a
little
bit
about
what
we're
losing
if
we're
losing
an
event?
Space
I
saw
that
you're
doing
a
pop-up
event
space
or
something
different.
Y
We're
not
getting
rid
of
event
space
we're
just
changing
where
it's
located.
So
on
the
first
floor
of
our
hotel
on
the
south
end
of
the
wing,
we
had
a
large
co-working
space
and
we
had
board
rooms
and
some
work
rooms
and
we
had
hotel
rooms.
Hotel
rooms
on
the
first
floor
are
not
highly
desirable,
so
we're
moving
them
to
another
location,
we're
reconfiguring
the
hotel
rooms
within
the
hotel
and
then
taking
that
space
and
making
it
our
event
space.
So.
E
Y
F
V
F
V
F
U
We've
got
a
project
here
that
all
of
us
want
to
see
completed,
one
where
we
have
consensus
between
the
developer
and
the
neighbors
regarding
the
number
of
Hotel
units
and
the
number
of
condo
units.
But
there's
not
consensus
on
is
the
number
or
the
height
of
12
of
the
condo
units,
I.
Think.
From
my
perspective,
the
design
that
was
presented
and
approved
in
2019
was
reasonable
and
to
make
a
change
of
20
feet
in
height.
F
F
That
I'm
just
afraid
that
going
back
to
or
asking
more
changes
when
we
will,
after
all
this
time
that
we'll
end
up
having
an
empty
lot
for
too
long
so
but
I
do
have
to
say.
The
project
from
the
renderings
in
general
I
think
is
a
beautiful
project.
I
agree
with
council
member
Holsted
that
it
would
have
been
better
to
have
conceptually
a
convention
Hotel,
especially
considering
the
need
for
it
now
in
terms
of
a
lot
more
rooms,
but
also
looking
at
the
original
approval
that
had
a
significant
number,
significant,
bigger
property.
F
G
Thank
you,
mayor,
yeah,
reiterate,
you
know
it's
it's
a
wonderful
project
and
and
I
think
you
know
I'm
a
little
challenged
too,
because
from
reading
the
planning
commission's
notes
they
it
was,
it
was
discussed
to
look
at
a
different
height
and
I.
Think
somewhere
I
saw
that
there
were
even
looking
at
that.
38
feet
might
be
even
more
acceptable
in
that
particular
area,
but
you
know
I
I,
think
going
from
26,
which
was
approved
and
everybody
you
know
it
was
endorsed
and
everybody
surrounded
it
up.
20
feet
to
46.
G
is,
is
a
challenge.
I,
don't
mind
46
feet
in
a
lot
of
this,
a
lot
of
the
development,
the
north
Villas.
It's
just
that
North
East
northeast
corner.
Where
that,
however,
many
units
are
there
in
that
northeast
corner,
which
is
is
a
is
a
the
challenge
for
me
on
that
northeast
corner.
So
that's
why
I
was
earlier
asking
if
there
was
if
there
was
a
way
to
lower
that
northeast
corner.
G
You
know
by
the
eight
feet
or
ten
feet,
to
really
bring
it,
bring
it
down
and
scale
and
and
then
to
be
able
to
show
us
a
better
architectural
rendering
of
of
that
setback
and
and
the
tiered
setback
would
make
a
difference.
So
I
I'm
challenged
with
with
the
scale
next
to
a
development
right
next
door,
and
you
know
I'm
it.
We
definitely
want
the
project,
as
councilmember
Bernstein
has
said,
and
you
know
no
one.
G
No
one
wants
something
to
to
go
on
and
drag
on
forever,
but
it
doesn't
make
sense
to
build
something
that
is
not
going
to
be
right.
The
entire
project
looks
fabulous.
There's
just
this
one
corner
in
the
north
Villas
that
just
is,
is
not
going
to
be
right
for
that
that
part
of
the
neighborhood
so
I'm
challenged
with
that.
E
V
You've
mentioned
two
options
that
are
possible.
There
number
one
is
to
continue
the
item
to
allow
the
applicant
to
address
the
concerns
that
you
all
have
identified
this
evening.
That
would
probably
be
the
most
exhibit
expeditious
route
for
this
project.
The
other
option
is
yes,
you
could
send
it
back
to
the
Planning
Commission
and
essentially
have
the
applicant
do
the
same
thing
that
she
would
be
presenting
to
you
all
with
revisions
to
the
north
Villas.
V
W
So
you
currently
have
an
agreement
with
them.
That,
arguably,
is
expired,
but
it's
been
expired
for
a
little
while,
while
we've
continued
down
this
process,
so
I
don't
think
a
brief
delay
to
go
back
and
look
at
this
issue
causes
us
a
lot
of
change
in
circumstances
or
concern
under
the
agreement.
It
would
also
give
us
the
opportunity
if
you
wanted
us
to
to
go
back
and
look
at
that
pre-procurement
issue
that
you
had
raised
and
then
also
one
of
the
council
members
I'm.
E
Thank
you
appreciate
that,
and
I
was
going
to
raise
that.
So
thank
you
for
reminding
us.
You
know
for
me
this
issue.
Usually
these
come
forward
to
us
more
baked
more
ready
with
more
Community
Support.
It's
rare
for
us
to
see
so
much
opposition
at
this
point
by
the
way
well
done
to
the
public
commenters
who
had
materials
I've
never
seen
that
before,
and
it
was
an
impressive
presentation.
E
So
it's
hard
to
move
forward
with
with
Community
opposition
I
will
say
this
is
a
site
that
is
in
section
14.
It's
in
our
Central
business
district.
The
city
does
have
a
Convention
Center
Hotel
planned
for
this
site
and
we've
wanted
one
for
a
long
time
and
there
is
significant
height
allowances
that
this
is
under.
So
we
can't
have
our
cake
and
eat
it
too.
I
know
we
all
love
the
views,
but
we
do
have
to
think
about.
You
know
we
need
a
Convention
Center
Hotel.
We
need
a
site,
that's
developed.
E
We
can't
have
it
looking
like
it's
looking
for
15
more
years,
and
so
you
know
we
need
to.
We
need
to
work
together
and
I
think
we
can
get
there
and
usually
these
projects
do
get
there
and
I
appreciate.
The
developer
has
worked
with
the
community
and
made
a
lot
of
allowances
and
be
very
thoughtful
as
I
know,
Miss
Kibby
is
a
neighbor
too.
So
it
seems
to
me
like
at
this
point.
We
should
continue
the
item
and
then
have
staff.
E
Do
that
hard
work
with
the
community
and
maybe
the
developer
and
Community
can
discuss
I
would
if
I
do
have
concerns
about
this
project
because
it
has
been
15
years
and
because
there
have
been
significant,
obviously
issues
just
with
the
market
and
the
pandemic
and
all
the
the
roller
coaster
that
we've
been
on.
But
when
I
first
campaigned
in
2017,
we
had
voters
saying
we
want
the
end
of
stalled
development
projects,
and
so
city
council
has
really
considered
bonding
and
other
measures
to
ensure
projects
go
forward.
E
And
so,
if
we
do
continue,
it
I'd,
like
the
City
attorney
to
discuss
and
see
that
the
develop
offers
open
to
the
pre-procurement
of
materials.
So
we
can
really
address
any
Force
measure
or
unintended
delays,
bonding
or
personal
guarantees,
which
we've
done
with
the
orchid
tree
and
other
projects
that
have
been
delayed
and
sat
vacant,
reasonable
Security
on
site.
As
mayor
Pro
tem
raised,
and
then
anything
else,
Council
would
like
to
be
considered
as
we
can.
If,
if
their
support
to
continue
this
motion
and
I
was
hearing
the
concerns,
that's
just
a
proposal.
V
F
And
so,
if
so,
if
we
don't
have
I
mean
we
may
never
get
full
community
support
and
and
actually
do
disagree,
we
have
moved
forward
with
a
lot
of
projects
that
haven't
had
full
community
support
or
a
lot
of
opposition.
So
and
it's
horrible
I
know
it's
not
it's
not
really
a
nice
way
ever
to
do
a
project,
but
we've
seen
this
downtown
we've
seen
it.
You
know
a
lot
of
different
places
that
it's
happened
so
I'm
just
trying
to
find
out.
F
W
Yeah,
so
if
you
were
to
continue
the
item,
I
would
suggest
that
you
reopen
the
public
hearing
continue
to
a
date.
Certain
probably
that
first
date
in
June
would
be
more
realistic,
because
that
would
give
us
some
time
to
meet
and
work
through
some
language
and
I
suspect.
The
applicant
would
probably
need
to
do
some
redesign,
so
they
would
probably
need
a
little
time
to
do
that
and
then
you
could,
with
the
hearing
reopened
and
continue
to
a
date
certain
we
wouldn't
need
to
re-notice
the
item.
W
Otherwise,
if
you
have
closed
the
hearing-
and
we
continue
to
a
date-
certain
we
would
still
probably
need
to
re-notice
and
yes,
we
would
bring
back
the
entire
package
to
you
at
that
point.
So
in
the
interim
we
could
go
and
look
at
some
of
those
issues
that
were
raised
in
the
settlement
agreement.
Also.
F
Can
we
ask
the,
can
we
ask
the
applicant,
what
would
change
or
are
we
just
going
to
come
back
with
the
same
thing
and
and
that
that's
what
I'm
trying
that's
I'm
sort
of
getting
at
like?
If,
if
there's,
if
there's
a
possibility
for
a
change,
then
that
would
be
great
or
if
it's
deciding
yes
or
no
on
this.
Y
Months
because
it
takes
time
to
redesign
a
project,
and
so
we'd
have
to
redesign
that
entire
end
and
June
is
not
possible.
July
is
not
possible
August
until
that's
done
and
we
have
approval.
We
can't
finish
our
civil.
We
can't
do
our
sewer
and
water,
so
it
to
me
it's
moving
it
down
line.
We
we'd
have
to
recast
it.
We
have
there's
a
lot
that
has
to
happen.
It's
not
just
take
off
a
corner
of
a
building.
Unfortunately,
it's
a
redesign,
so
you.
G
W
Y
A
F
V
The
direction
of
the
city
council-
you
wouldn't
necessarily
need
to
have
it,
go
back
through
the
Planning
Commission,
unless
there
are
significant
changes
to
the
site
plan.
If
they
are
only
modifying
the
northeast
corner
of
a
building,
then
no
I
don't
believe
it
would
need
to
go
back
to
the
Planning
Commission.
V
E
Holstich,
thank
you
and
and
just
to
be
clear.
I
I
appreciate
that
we
often
do
have
some
opposition
to
projects,
but
some
usually
there's
been
months
of
working
together
and
years
really
and
I
know
there
has
been
years
working
together,
but
we've
just
seen
more
collaboration
and
I
know
that
that's
been
attempted
here.
So
I
personally
can't
support
continuing
for
six
more
months
for
an
incompletely
new
redesign.
E
My
concerns
where
I'd
like
to
see
some
changes
to
the
agreement,
and
that
seems
just
like
clarification
for
pre-procurement
processes
of
materials.
So
we
know
we
won't
fall
into
Force
measure
land
again
because
we
can't
afford
it
in
terms
of
time.
I
very
much
want
to
see
a
project
go
forward.
If
it's
this
or
another
one.
That's
why
I
said
Convention
Center
Hotel,
because
it's
it
just
needs
to
happen.
So
I
have
a
hard
time
agreeing
to
six
more
months.
I
would
agree
to
you
know
a
date
certain
that's
a
shorter
time.
E
If
there's
you
know
small
changes
that
can
be
done,
but
a
complete
redesign
just
adds
too
much
time
to
this
project
than
we've
already
had
so
much
delay.
So
I'm
going
to
have
a
I'll,
probably
vote,
no
on
the
the
motion
in
front
of
us.
For
that
reason,
I
would
support
a
continuance
for
some
of
the
other
issues
just
for
legal,
but
it
sounds
like
for
the
City
attorney.
We
wouldn't
need
a
continuance
we
could
approve
or
deny
and
include
that
in
the
motion
for
some
of
the
changes
to
the
agreement.
W
You
could
approve
the
agreement
contingent
upon
the
addition
of
a
pre-procurement
process
for
identified
materials,
security,
the
retention
of
a
security
company,
and
you
can
direct
us
to
go
back
and
discuss
bonding
and
personal
guarantee
with
them
again.
They've
rejected
that
originally
so
I
can't
it
would
be
up
to
miss
Kibby
whether
or
not
she
wanted
to
commit
to
those
things.

The
next
item
is
public
comment
on
non-agenda
items.
This
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
city
council
on
items
of
general
interest
within
the
subject
matter:
jurisdiction
of
the
city.
Although
the
city
council
values
your
comments
pursuant
to
the
brown
act,
it
generally
cannot
take
any
action
on
items
not
listed
on
the
agenda.

over
a
year
and
a
half
I
have
used

for
all
of
my

needs

California,
personal
and
medical.

would

Make

By
stating

There

no

I
was
going
to
take
a
job
in
Indian
Wells,
with
strike
always
being
threatened.
There
is
no
way
I
was
going
to
find
apartments
anywhere
in
Coachella
Valley,
with
strike
always
being
threatened.
I
need

my
Palm

Services
lack
of
sunline
Transportation
agency
reliability
was
dramatically
impacted.
My
life
I
asked
for
a
transportation
Summit
in
Coachella
Valley
and
solutions
resolved
for
this
unreliable
and
constantly
shrinking
no
service
sunline
Transportation
agency.

There
will
not
even
they
will
not
even
allow
regular
public
meetings
until
they
decide
to
make
a
change
to
their
service.
This
needs
to
change
and
the
public
needs
more
input
on
this
public
transportation
agency.

What
I
do
want
to
mention
on
the
June
5th
meeting
that
will
be
a
joint
meeting
with
the
measure
J
commission
so
we'll
be
bringing
that
forward
and
then
obviously
going
through
the
budget
again
on
June
5th.
What's
not
on
here,
obviously
we'll
be
working
on
the
Dream
Hotel
project
coming
back
on
that
date
and
then
we'll
also
I
know
we're
working.
R
We've
got
scheduled
we're
going
to
be
having
some
discussions
with
the
mayor,
Pro
tem
about
his
discussions,
interest
in
TOT
and
affordable
housing
I
think
we're
doing
that
next
week.
That
could
potentially
be
on
for
discussion
on
June
5th
after
those
discussions
and
then
finally,
on
June,
29th
we'll
have
a
final
budget
discussions
for
the
related
to
the
biennial
budget
and
we'll
be
bringing
forward
a
reserve
fund
policy
for
the
council's
consideration
as
part
of
the
budget
process.

the
Great

I
want
to
congratulate
the
boys
and
girls
club
for
the
very
successful
opening
of
the
new
Health
Center
on
their
campus,
and
it
was
beautifully
executed.
I
also
want
to
congratulate
our
colleague
on
the
Palm
Desert
city
council,
John
harnick,
who
finished
her
year
as
the
president
of
the
Southern
California
Association
of
governments,
with
a
very
successful
conference
in
her
hometown
of
Palm
Desert.
U
It
was
a
good
good
event,
I
think
Tim
Esser
for
once
again
a
lovely
evening
recognizing
all
of
the
individuals
who
were
responsible
for
putting
on
the
tour
to
Palm,
Springs
event
and
I
would
make
note
that
the
California
legislature,
LGBT
caucus
many
of
their
members,
are
in
town
this
week
weekend
for
events
and
the
following
weekend,
the
Congressional

caucus
will
be

we
are

an
opportunity
to
show
off
Palm
