Please
place
your
hand
over
your
heart
and
repeat
with
me:
I
pledge
allegiance
to
the
flag
of
the
United
States
of
America
and
to
the
Republic
for
which
it
stands.
One
nation
under
God
indivisible
with
liberty
and
justice
for
all.
Thank
you.
You
may
be
seated
to
city
clerk.
Would
you
please
do
the
roll
call.
D
B
A
Thank
you
before
we
get
our
meeting
started.
I
would
like
to
ask
my
City
Council
colleagues
and
everyone
in
the
audience
to
join
with
me
in
a
moment
of
silence
in
honor
of
National
Peace
Officers
Memorial
week.
Let
us
all
take
a
moment
to
remember
our
fallen:
Palm
Springs
Police
Department
officers,
Gail
Eldridge,
Lau,
Larrabee,
Jose,
Gil,
Vega,
Leslie's
Rebney,
as
well
as
all
of
the
many
other
brave
men
and
women
Public
Safety
officers
throughout
our
country,
who
have
fallen
in
the
line
of
duty
in
order
to
serve
and
protect
us.
A
A
The
next
item
that
the
City
Council
will
discuss
the
order
the
agenda
may
amend
the
order
and
hurt
and
hurt
add
or
just
the
items,
note,
abstentions
or
no
votes
and
consent.
Calendar
items
and
request
consent,
counter
items
be
removed
from
the
consent
calendar
for
discussion.
The
City
Council
may
also
remove
items
from
the
consent
calendar
prior
to
that
portion
of
the
agenda.
I
would
like
to
entertain
a
motion
for
acceptance
of
the
agenda.
Are
there
any
items?

It
still
said:
okay,
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
council,
as
you'll
note,
we
had
an
extremely
lengthy
closed
session
agenda.
I
can
advise
that
the
council
did
in
fact
take
up
each
and
every
item
on
the
closed
session
agenda.
With
the
exception
of
the
two
real
property
negotiation
items,
the
council
gave
direction,
of
course,
on
many
of
these
items,
but
there
was
no
reportable
action.
H
I
would
like
to
note
for
purposes
of
closed
session
that
we
did
have
a
recusal
on
one
of
the
initiation
of
litigation
items
by
Mayor,
Pro,
Tem
Roberts
and
by
councilmember
Lisa
Middleton.
We
had
a
recusal
on
the
Lockwood
litigation
by
our
city
manager,
dr.
David,
ready,
and
that
concludes
my
report
out
of
closed
session.
A
Okay,
public
testimony
for
non
public
hearing
items.
Only
this
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
City
Council.
Only
on
non
public
hearing
agenda
items
two
minutes
will
be
assigned
to
each
speaker.
You
are
asked
to
begin
your
time
by
telling
us
what
agenda
items
or
item
or
items
you
are
speaking
about
to
remind
testimony
for
public
hearings
will
only
be
taken
at
the
time
of
the
public
hearing
and
general
public
comments
for
subjects
not
on
tonight's
agenda
will
be
taken
later
in
the
evening.
A
H
I
J
K
J
Obviously,
my
first
time
in
front
of
you
folks
thank
the
sign
itself
would
be
on
the
front
fascia
of
the
mercedes-benz
building
located
next
to
the
actual
mercedes-benz
signed,
smaller
font.
This
is
required
by
Mercedes.
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
choice
of
what
they
allow
us
to
put
up,
and
hopefully
you'll
see
the
value
in
this
for
both
us
and
ourselves
and
give
us
an
OK
to
do
this.
A
L
Mr.
mayor
members
of
the
council,
my
name
is
Chris
Hector
representing
indigo
Auto
group,
and
we
are
very
excited
about
bringing
the
new
Porsche
store
from
its
existing
spot
in
Rancho
Mirage
to
the
city
of
Palm,
Springs
I
think
this
will
benefit
not
only
Porsche
cars,
indigo,
Auto
Group,
but
Palm
Springs
itself.
This
will
be
a
new
state-of-the-art
facility,
both
in
sales
and
service,
unique
and
its
kind
is.
It
will
be
the
represent
the
first
new
generation
of
the
of
Porsche-
and
we
are
here
tonight
or
I'm
here
tonight
because
of
the
sign
package.
L
We
will
have.
Basically
five
signs
on
the
outside
of
the
building
attached
to
the
building
will
be
the
red
Porsche
letters.
We
will
have
a
what
we
call
a
totem
that
is
right
next
to
the
entrance
on
the
building,
which
will
have
a
Porsche
crest
on
it.
Illuminated
there
will
be
a
Porsche
monument
sign
at
the
entrance
to
the
main
Drive
illuminated,
which
will
represent
have
a
Porsche
crest
on
it
and
also
have
the
Porsche
letters
on
that
sign.
Next
to
it
will
be
a
directional
sign
which
just
points
non-illuminated
but
directs
the
public
to.
L
A
M
Good
evening,
mr.
mayor
city,
council,
city
manager,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
my
name
is
tony
aguilar
resident
of
Palm
Springs
for
33
years
tonight,
I'd
like
to
comment
on
the
proposition
of
possibly
transitioning
from
an
enlarged
electoral
system
to
a
district
based
system
for
members
of
the
City
Council
for
the
City
Council,
and
it
has
merit
before
that.
I
handed
you
a
copy
of
the
statement
along
with
a
copy
of
the
program.
M
From
my
start,
dedication
only
for
the
purpose
of
you,
knowing
how
involved
I've
been
in
this
city,
that
I
love
so
much
for
the
past
33
years,
I've
done
as
much
as
I
can
I'm
kind
of
semi-retired.
Now
it's
still
active
district
representation
would
provide
equal
representation
of
our
various
community
groups,
such
as
the
Hispanic
and
african-american
communities.
The
president
composition
of
the
City
Council
was
not
representative
of
the
posterous
community.
It
is
my
understanding
that
he
proposal
has
been
made
to
rotate
the
mayor's
position
among
City
Council
members,
terrible
idea,
absolutely
terrible
idea.
M
The
mayor's
position
has
become
in
this
city,
its
full-time
job,
I.
Don't
think
it's
paid
what
he
for
the
work
he
does
mayor.
Moon
was
elected
as
mayor
by
a
wide
margin
of
over
a
1000
votes.
He
was
a
popular
candidate,
then
he
is
even
more
popular
today
as
the
setting
mayor,
so
those
of
the
council
on
the
council
who
would
aspire
to
the
mayor's
office.
Let
me
suggest
to
you
that
you
can't
aim
at
the
campaign
at
the
appropriate
time
and
concentrate
on
performing
the
duties
to
which
you
are
elected
to
City
Council
members.
M
Many
of
us
sponsors
resident
residents
detect
divisiveness
on
this
council
time
to
work
as
a
team.
It
is
time
to
do
that
to
the
benefit
of
those
of
us
who
elected
you.
It
is
alleged.
The
city
is
having
meetings
and
considering
firing.
The
founding
members
of
the
not-for-profit
board,
which
is
finished
at
the
Ponte
vaca
stars
program
for
26.
M
I
Hello,
it's
Darrell
balm
with
why
we
Salvage
Japan
living
so
I'm
talking
tonight
about
the
sign
ordinance
and
the
current
version
as
it
is
I
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you.
The
the
portable
sign
program
is
presented
in
the
latest.
Rendition
is
good
work
and
I
believe
that
the
City,
Council
and
City
Planning
has
been
effective
in
listening
to
the
requests
of
the
small
businesses.
Does
it
satisfy
my
request?
I
Not
completely,
however,
the
city
met
with
the
met
the
alley,
businesses
halfway
and
that's
better
than
where
we
were
the
outcome
of
discussions
and
to
be
debate,
results
many
times
and
compromise,
and
that's
what
I've
always
done
in
my
career.
So
I
appreciate
where
we're
at
I
confirmed
with
the
head
of
City
Planning,
that
my
portable
directory
sign
will
go
on
to
MCB
property,
the
the
property
owner
where
it
has
been
since
March.
It
has
not
and
will
not
impede
pedestrian
traffic,
and
it
allows
for
the
88
72
inch
space.
I
This
is
the
same
situation
for
neighboring
businesses
crystal
fantasy
and
the
juice
bar,
as
well
as
countless
others.
They've
they've
had
their
signs
on
the
property
near
on
their
property
near
the
sidewalk
as
well,
and
not
on
the
city's
property
or
on
the
sidewalk.
So
I
appreciate
the
efforts
that
have
been
made
on
this
and
I
know
it's
a
small
little
project,
but
it's
it's
helps
me
out
tremendously.
So
thank
you.
I
A
I
Good
evening
Council,
my
name
is
Lisa
Lascaux
I'm,
a
community
engagement
and
policy
advocate
with
the
American
Civil
Liberties
Union
of
Southern
California
in
our
Inland
Empire
office,
I'm
here
tonight
to
talk
about
agenda
item
one
I,
the
amicus
brief
in
support
of
the
California
values.
Act
I
just
want
to
first
off
start
by
thanking
council
members
core
and
holstege
for
introducing
this
item.
It's
super
important
because
I
think
Palm
Springs
is
the
first
city
in
the
inland
region
to
be
voting
in
support
of
immigrants.
I
So
I
think
that
really
shows
the
dedication
and
the
commitment
of
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
to
inclusion
and
diversity.
So
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that
for
all
the
council
members,
all
the
council
members
for
that,
and
you
know,
as
I'll
share
a
little
bit
about
myself.
I'm
undocumented
I'm
here
on
dock
I
graduated
college.
So
you
know
this
this.
I
So
for
me
it
really
warms
my
heart
when
I
hear
cities
like
Palm
Springs
bringing
up
these
issues-
and
you
know
you
saying
that
your
pro-immigrant
just
means
a
lot,
especially
in
these
times
that
you
know
it's
xenophobia
is
isn't
the
mainstream
narrative
it.
It
really
gets
me
down
and
I.
Think
decisions
like
this,
just
you
know
bring
me
bring
me
hope
again.
So
thank
you
for
the
time
and
we
look
forward
to
hoping
you
sign
on
and
then
thank
you
for
your
leadership
on
this
issue.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
J
But
afternoons
City
Councilmembers.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak.
My
name
is
Genoa
Dunlap
I'm,
the
deportation
defense
coordinator
with
England
coercion
from
urgh
injustice,
I
work
with
immigrant
premis
every
single
day
throughout
them
and
in
Empire
region,
including
Palm
Springs
and
the
surrounding
cities
and
communities.
I
wanted
to
thank
council
members,
holstege
and
cords
for
proposing
that
Palm
Springs
be
added
to
the
amicus
brief
in
support
of
SB
54.
J
J
This
is
one
of
the
things
that
the
SB
54
addresses
by
ending
this
practice,
and
we
believe
that
disentangling
immigration
from
local
law
enforcement
goes
a
long
way
to
address
the
fear
the
many
immigrant
communities
have
had
for
so
long
in
calling
the
police
are
working
with
police
to
resolve
crimes
and
the
SB
454
creates
better
relationships
between
local
police
and
the
immigrant
community.
In
order
to
achieve
this,
so
I
want
to
thank
you
again
for
considering
this
and
definitely
encourage
the
City
Council
to
approve
this
item.
Thank
you.
Thank.
J
Good
evening
my
name
is
Ken
woods
and
I'm.
Here
speaking
on
the
immigration
issue,
SB
54
I'm
speaking
here
on
behalf
of
my
best
friend
who
was
undocumented.
He
was
the
light
and
love
my
life
for
14
years.
He
came
to
California
over
20
years
ago,
legally
on
a
student
visa.
He
had
health
insurance,
but
the
cost
became
prohibitive.
For
him.
We
tried
to
sign
him
up
for
Obamacare,
but
because
of
his
immigration
status,
he
was
ineligible.
J
He
decided
to
let
his
insurance
go
in
order
to
have
money
to
send
back
to
Oh
to
assist
his
sick
father
in
May
of
2014.
He
ran
himself
down
and
became
very
ill
because
of
his
immigration
status
and
lack
of
Affordable
Care.
He
went
to
the
east
end
of
the
valley,
for
some
crackpot
doctor
told
him
he
just
had
a
cold
when
he
reached
the
point
that
he
couldn't
breathe.
He
went
to
Eisenhower
where
they
diagnosed
him
with
pneumonia
and
immediately
put
him
in
intensive
care.
J
J
Good
evening
Council,
my
name
is
Lynn
O'neill
and
I
am
the
legal
coordinator
for
the
Coachella
Valley
immigrant
dignity
group,
and
it
was
a
group
that
we
created
because
we
recognized
it
was
a
need
to
bridge
the
gap
between
the
East
and
the
West
Valley
during
such
constitutionally
perilous
times.
So
we
fully
support
this
measure
tonight,
because
we
are
aware
that
the
people
throughout
the
Coachella
Valley
and
the
state
of
California
are
at
extreme
risk
and
I.
Thank
you
for
being
the
first
council
to
address
this
issue.
J
Hopefully,
you'll
lead
the
way,
so
we
can
March
and
we
can
rally
and
we
can
make
phone
calls,
but
none
of
that
will
matter
absent,
clear
rulings
from
the
court
to
protect
us.
The
attacks
on
our
rights
are
so
egregious.
They
have
to
be
adjudicated
by
the
court,
so
at
present
the
DOJ
has
instituted
a
suit
that
has
many
causes
of
action
that
are
alarming,
but
the
one
that
truly
concerns
me
is
their
statement.
That
ice
should
be
able
to
enter
into
a
business
on
a
civil
warrant
issued
by
under
executive
powers.
J
They
want
to
eliminate
the
need
to
have
a
judicial
warrant
that
cuts
out
one-third
of
our
system
of
checks
and
balances,
and
that
is
alarming,
so
we're
asking
you
tonight
join
the
state
of
California
and
the
fight
to
prevent
federal
overreach,
to
protect
individual
rights,
to
protect
states
rights
and
to
protect
our
system
of
checks
and
balances.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
A
Thank
you,
Thank
You
mr.
Stewart
to
City
Clerk
any
other
one.
Anyone
else
wish
to
speak,
seeing
none,
we
will
close
the
first
portion
of
public
testimony.
Next
item
is
City
Council
subcommittee
and
city
manager's
comments
and
reports,
as
time
is
set
aside
for
the
City
Council
to
provide
additional
general
comments,
reports
and
announcements.
Additionally,
this
time
is
set
aside
for
the
city
manager
to
update
the
City
Council
on
important
items
initiated
by
staff
or
previously
requested
by
the
City
Council
dr.
Reddy.
Do
you
have
anything
to
speak.
A
I
think
we
probably
have
several
reports
tonight,
I'd
like
to
start
out
with
one
on
behalf
of
the
Palm
Springs
Walk
of
Stars
ad
hoc
committee,
which
is
Mayor
Pro
Tem
and
myself.
The
Palm
Springs
Walk
of
Stars
has
been
in
existence
for
about
25
years
in
the
current
license
agreement
to
which
they
offered
the
Walker
stars
is
working
under,
has
been
in
place
since
2013
and
expires
June
4th
of
this
year,
which
is
just
a
few
weeks
away
for
six
months.
A
The
sub,
the
ad
hoc
committee,
which
is
Mayor
Pro,
Tem
and
I,
have
worked
exhaustive,
examining
every
aspect
of
the
waka
Stars
program.
We
have
met
with
staff.
We've
met
with
the
current
false
rings,
waka
star
of
license
II
and
we've
talked
also
walk
to
talk
to
the
Palm
Springs
Chamber
of
Commerce.
We
will
be
coming
to
the
full
council
at
the
next
meeting
on
June
4th
June
6th
June
6.
There
was
several
recommendations
as
a
result
of
the
studies
we
have
been
doing.
A
One
of
those
is
we're
going
to
suggest
that
we've
replaced
the
current
license
agreement
with
a
service
agreement
with
the
Palm
Springs
Chamber
of
Commerce
to
operate
our
Palm
Springs
Walk
of
Stars
in
a
similar
manner,
as
the
Hollywood
Walk
of
Stars
is
now
done
by
the
Hollywood
Chamber
of
Commerce.
That
will
be
one
of
our
recommendations.
We
also
have
numerous
recommendations
on
upgrading
and
clarifying
the
qualifications
to
receive
a
Palm
Springs
Walk
of
star.
A
Currently,
the
proceeds
for
the
Palm
Springs
Walk
of
Stars
goes
into
the
coffers
of
the
current
license,
E
for
the
Palm
Springs
Walk
of
Stars,
which
the
city
does
not
have
access
to
those
funds.
So
we
will
be
making
those
recommendations
with
with
a
very
exhaustive
staff
report
and
we'll
be
coming
to
you
at
the
next
city
council
meeting
with
that,
may
pretend
anything
dead,
not.
G
All
right,
I
have
a
few
here:
I
want
to
begin
with
the
affordable
housing
subcommittee
that
is
councilmember
holstege
and
I.
We
had
our
first
meeting
this
week.
It
was
a
very
informative
meeting.
My
compliments
are
compliments
to
Jai
Radha
and
to
all
of
the
team
that
was
responsible
for
a
very
in-depth
presentation
of
information
and
as
a
reward
for
providing
us
with
much
information.
G
So
we
are
going
to
be
looking
very
seriously
at
all
of
the
options
that
we
have
on
the
table
and
coming
back
to
this
council
with
recommendations
for
changes,
perhaps
in
our
zoning
and
building
codes,
to
streamline
some
housing
to
be
more
creative
in
the
use
of
land
that
we
have
to
create
greater
opportunities
for
affordable
housing
and
are
not
only
in
our
community.
This
is
a
shared
responsibility
of
every
city
in
California
to
address
the
housing
needs
that
we
have.
G
So
moving
on
from
that,
I
was
along
with
the
mayor
of
Southern
California
Association
of
Governments
in
there
was
an
extremely
helpful
presentation
from
on
affordable
housing
given
at
that
conference,
and
many
cities
are
responding
to
this
crisis
by
being
more
creative
with
their
codes
and
with
unit
sizes
that
they
have
in
their
homes.
I
think
there's
some
examples
for
us
to
take
a
look
at,
and
we
look
forward
in
the
ad
hoc
in
the
Housing
Committee
to
work
on
that.
G
Moving
on
from
that,
I
will
talk
also
again
about
the
Southern
California
Association
of
Governments
meeting.
One
of
the
big
themes
of
that
was
the
importance
of
SB
1,
which
provided
so
much
transportation
funds
we
here
in
the
Coachella
Valley
think
of
tourism.
But
one
of
the
reports
that
came
out
from
that
meeting
is
22
percent
of
all
jobs
in
Southern,
California
are
dependent
on
transportation.
G
They
are
jobs
in
our
two
ports.
They
are
jobs
that
involve
trucking.
They
are
jobs
that
involve
distribution.
They
are
working-class
jobs
that
individuals
without
a
high
school
degree
can
earn.
We
can
only
keep
those
jobs
in
California
if
we
have
a
transportation
infrastructure
that
supports
the
economy
that
we
need.
So
I
will
be
asking
that
we
have
a
motion
brought
before
the
City
Council
to
support
SB
1
and
to
oppose
any
efforts
to
overturn
SB
1.
The
funding
that
we
want
for
our
pedestrian
bike
traffic
safety
projects.
G
One
very
specific
example
of
something
that
they
did,
and
we
know
that
we
are
always
just
a
few
moments
away
from
in
catastrophe
in
our
city,
but
with
hundreds
of
homes
destroyed,
destroyed
by
fire
and
moments
of
no,
you
had
hundreds
of
homeowners
without
any
information
to
document
the
deeds
to
their
home.
The
building
plans
to
their
home.
What
the
city
took
in
did
well,
and
it
did
take
them
a
few
days,
but
they
put
together
in
a
large
room
at
City
Hall
envelopes
that
had
for
each
and
every
address
for
their
city.
G
So
I
would
like
to
ask
staff
to
take
a
look
at
what
we
can
do
not
only
to
prepare
for
an
emergency
in
terms
of
the
activities
that
happen
during
the
emergency,
but
that
we
take
and
develop
programs
to
respond
in
the
days
and
weeks
after
the
emergency
when
people
are
trying
to
recover.
In
fact,
it
becomes
some
of
the
most
important
time
in
people's
lives.
G
Moving
on
I've
apologized,
they
have
a
lot,
but
councilmember,
Coors
and
I
are
working
on
the
California
Voting
Rights
Act,
in
the
response
to
that.
In
the
course
of
that,
we
have
identified
that
we
will
be
hiring
a
diversity
consultant
to
work
with
us
and
in
conversation
with
that
program,
we
think
there
are
some
great
opportunities
for
the
diversity
consultant
to
help
us
not
only
with
moving
forward
on
CVRA
but
to
help
us
as
we
attempt
to
recruit
for
our
boards
and
commissions
and
as
someone
who
chaired
the
Diversity
Committee
I
can
tell
you.
G
Our
boards
and
commissions
do
not
reflect
the
ethnic
diversity
of
our
city.
So,
knowing
that
we
have
this
diversity
consultant
who
is
going
to
be
coming
before
us
shortly
and
working
with
us,
we
would
like
to
ask
that
all
boards
and
Commission
terms
that
were
set
to
expire
on
June
30
be
extended
to
December
31st.
No
one
be
required
to
stay
longer
if
they
do
not
want
to.
G
But
this
would
allow
us
to
do
more
outreach
to
all
of
the
communities
and
try
to
come
up
with
a
boards
and
commissions
that
truly
do
reflect
our
full
community.
Last
I
want
to
take
note
that
I
set
in
with
city
manager,
dr.
Reddy
and
all
of
the
senior
staff
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
for
a
meeting
with
the
deaf
community
and
I
want
to
congratulate
the
city
manager
for
his
work.
During
that
meeting,
it
was
for
me
the
best
90
minutes
that
I
have
spent
since
I
have
been
on
this
City
Council.
G
They
are
reaching
out
to
work
with
us
and
we
are
going
to
be
coming
back
to
City
Council,
with
a
number
of
recommendations
to
ensure
that
the
community
is
fully
represented.
One
outcome
of
that
meeting
is
we
had
at
least
one
individual
from
the
deaf
community
who
24
hours
later
applied
for
one
of
our
boards
and
commissions.
D
D
The
Public
Safety
Committee
talked
about
the
effects
of
and
of
things
like
Coachella
and
I
thought.
You'd
find
it
interesting
that
Coachella
was
completely
sold
out
this
year,
125,000
people
generally.
They
make
approximately
300
arrests,
and
this
year
it
was
down
10%
and
that's
what
I
have
to
tell
you
Thank.
F
Thank
You
mayor
to
subcommittee
reports.
The
first
is
the
ethics,
transparency
and
Government
Reform
subcommittee
that
the
city
attorney
this
week
held
a
training
for
boards
and
commissioners
on
our
new
Public
Integrity
law
that
is
available
on
channel
17.
But
you
can
also
find
out
on
the
city
web
site
and
it'll.
Take
you
to
YouTube,
where
you
can
watch
it.
F
So
hopefully
we
can
get
that
noticed
soon
as
soon
as
that
draft
is
ready,
so
that
people
have
time
to
review
it
and
be
prepared
to
come
and
share
comments,
and
then
the
business
retention
economic
development
standing
subcommittee,
which
is
councilmember,
holstege
and
I,
held
a
meeting.
We
had
some
really
good
ideas
from
folks.
We
talked
about
several
things
which
we'll
get
to,
and
public
hearings,
including
changes
on
zoning
for
grocery
stores,
changes
to
cannabis,
changes
to
the
sign
ordinance.
In
addition,
we
had
a
lot
of
talk
about
ways.
F
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
also
have
a
number
of
items.
This
is
my
time
to
report
what
I've
done
for
the
people
of
Palm
Springs,
what
they
pay
me
to
do
so
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
really
quickly
about
activities
that
I've
done
in
the
last
two
weeks
and
what
we've
done
is
our
subcommittees,
though
I
delegated
most
of
my
reports
to
my
fellow
councilmembers.
So
thank
you
for
that.
C
I,
Lisa,
Middleton
and
I
attended
the
affordable
housing
press
conference
at
and
tour
at
Rosa
Gardens
and
Palm
Springs,
and
so
we
were
there
with
a
number
of
elected
officials,
our
Riverside
County
Supervisor
manny
perez
was
there.
We
had
two
council
members
and
a
mayor
pro-tem
from
Desert
Hot
Springs.
C
We
had
even
a
councilmember
from
life
who
was
there
in
Palm
Springs
to
show
beautiful,
Rosa
Gardens,
which
is
an
amazing,
affordable
housing
project
that
was
done
by
Coachella,
Valley
Housing,
Coalition
and
I
was
honored
to
speak
there
and
talk
about
the
need
for
affordable
housing
in
our
community
and
and
as
councilmember
Middleton
reported.
Our
subcommittee
is
directly
working
on
that
and
taking
action
to
make
sure
that
we
provide
housing
and
that
we
incentivize
housing
for
everyone
to
live
in
Palm
Springs
going
forward.
C
We
attended
the
entire
council,
attended
the
agua
caliente
groundbreaking
ceremony
for
their
cultural
center.
It
was
extremely
well
attended.
There
wasn't
even
room
enough
room
in
the
tent
for
everyone
who
attended
and
it
was
a
beautiful
ceremony,
a
lot
of
elected
official
officials
were
there
our
congressmen
and
that's
a
really
exciting
groundbreaking
for
our
entire
community
and
our
partners
there
with
the
tribe.
So
that
was
a
fantastic
event.
C
Thank
them
for
the
contributions
that
they've
made
about
gun
violence
and
really
taking
a
leadership
role
in
our
community,
which
we
want
more
and
more
young
people
to
step
out
and
get
involved
and
show
political
leadership
and
I
told
him
some
of
the
the
student
there
that
we
had
a
lot
to
learn
from
him
and
we
hope
that
he'll
continue
to
be
involved
in
Palm,
Springs
and
issues
here.
So
that
was
a
really
a
rewarding
moment.
C
I
went
to
the
women
who
lead
luncheon
for
Palm
Springs
LIFE
and
a
number
of
local
women
leaders
were
honored
there.
So
Trina
Turk
talked
about
her
experience
with
her
store
in
downtown
Palm
Springs
Kelly
McLean
Tracie
Conrad
Candice
held
Cynthia
Branning
victory
grande
Michelle
Castillo
were
all
honored
and
it
was
really
inspiring
to
hear
about
how
women
are
leading
in
our
community
and
to
be
there
for
their
awards.
I
have
a
few
specific
requests
for
staff
and
and
subcommittees.
C
One
I
want
to
thank
the
subcommittee
for
the
Voting
Rights
Act,
which
is
a
fun
subcommittee
that
I
don't
get
to
serve
on
or
talk
about
unless
we're
in
a
public
meeting
here.
Thank
you
for
hiring
a
diversity
consultant.
That's
incredibly
important
and
I
hope
that,
as
we
move
forward
as
a
city,
we
you
know
use
diversity,
consultants
and
think
about
equity
and
inclusion
as
an
organization,
and
we
can
look
internally
as
well
as
externally
when
we're
doing
that
really
important
work.
C
We
had
our
affordable
housing
subcommittee
had
a
specific
request
to
staff
to
find
out
about
our
own
agendize,
affordable
housing
fund.
So
I
know
we've
talked
about
that
a
little
bit,
but
if
we
either
need
to
bring
forward
to
Council
so
that
we
have
a
fund
established
and
then
I'd
also
like
that
to
include
a
direction
to
the
Planning
Commission,
perhaps
about
when
and
how
to
include
affordable
housing,
offsets
or
contributions
to
that
fund
as
the
public
benefit
and
then
I
had
a
request
to
our
cannabis
subcommittee
or
City,
Attorney
or
staff.
C
So
if
we
could
just
provide
some
guidance
to
the
public,
especially
in
an
info
sheet
that
we
could
distribute,
because
we
do
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
friendly
to
businesses
and
that
people
aren't
going
to
open
businesses
here
in
Palm
Springs
that
they
don't
know
where
and
how
they
can
do
it
and,
let's
see
that's
all
I,
have
that's
all
I
have
mr.
mayor.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
You
customer
holstege
one
thing:
I
wanted
to
add,
as
I
went
to
the
HSP
be
meeting
this
past
week
and
was
delighted
that
they
thought
that
they
finally
approved
the
colors
for
the
Town
&,
Country,
Center
and
walking
by
there
I
can
see.
Work
has
already
started
so
we're
gonna
see
that
that
that
wonderful,
historic
property,
at
least
being
a
little
bit
stabilized
and
being
painted,
and
it's
great
they
actually
reason
it's
taken
so
long.
A
They
actually
went
to
areas
that
were
they
had
the
least
amount
of
ultraviolet
exposure,
and
they
they
went
down
to
the
to
the
basic
material
and
they
did
spectral
analysis
to
figure
out
the
original
colors
the
town
and
country
was
painted
in
1948.
So
that's
one
reason:
it's
taken
quite
a
while,
so
I
think
it's
really
exciting
to
see
we're
gonna
see
that
that
touched
up
and
also
one
question.
I
wanted
to
ask
one
of
the
questions.
K
Mr.
mayor
and
members
of
council
on
the
Cameron
project,
the
last
time
that
you
saw
that
was
relative
to
the
subdivision
improvement
agreement
and
extending
it
as
a
condition
of
approval
of
that
you
required
them
to
submit
a
landscape
plan
to
be
reviewed
with
the
adjacent
neighborhood.
A
neighborhood
meeting
was
held
on
April
the
24th
first,
the
neighborhood
gave
comments
on
the
landscaping
in
terms
of
what
they
wanted
to
see.
The
applicant
submitted
a
landscape
plan
to
us
last
week,
there's
a
couple
of
Corrections
that
they
need
to
make.
K
A
A
For
people
who
weren't
familiar
that
that
it's
a
very
visible
the
people
in
that
neighborhood
keep
asking
me
questions
on
that.
Okay,
anything
anything
else
for
customer
comments.
Okay,
next
item:
let's
get
to
the
sync
calendar,
mm-hmm
I
will
entertain
a
motion
to
accept
the
consent.
Calendar
without
items
and
I
have
a
quick
question.
Customer
course
I
wrote
in
my
notes
that
you
pulled
one
are,
but
there
is
no
one
are.
Is
that
I
make
a
mistake?
A
F
A
D
I
had
a
sad
memory
of
you
and
ice
walking
out
of
this
building
one
night
after
a
council
meeting
and
watching
a
drunk
driver,
plowed
down
the
street
and
plow
through
the
city
property
and
a
fire
hydrant
almost
into
the
fountain,
and
I
my
question
to
you
is
in
situations
where
people
do
damage
to
city
property.
Do
we
do
we
back
charge
for
that?
Much
the
same
way,
search
and
rescue
now
charges
to
pluck
hikers
out
of
the
mountain
when
they
get
lost
and
so
forth,
councilman.
E
When,
for
example,
in
auto
accidents,
where
there's
liability
on
the
driver,
we
certainly
we
subrogate
that
claim
and
actually,
as
it
turns
out,
city
attorney
and
I,
were
speaking
of
this
yesterday
and
he's
updating
a
report
that
we'll
be
able
to
provide
for
council.
A
lot
of
these
are
part
of
a
lot
of
potential
lawsuits.
Will
brief
counsel
in
closed
session,
but
we
do
go
after
those
payments.
If
they're
due
to
the
city,
we.
D
A
Pro
Tem,
you
may
recall
last
year
we
collected
for
someone
who
ran
into
that
big
sculpture
and
warm
sands.
The
big
red
thing
right
I
do
remember
that
yeah
and
they
paid
for
that
anyone
else.
Okay,
we
have
a
motion
to
approve
motion
to
approve,
may
be
back
councillor
holstege
seconded
by
councilmember
Middleton
motions
on
the
floor.
A
F
I
It
has
certain
income
requirements
for
eligible
participants
for
households
with
one
to
two
persons.
The
range
is
seventy
three
thousand
three
hundred
to
eighty
seven
nine
sixty
and
that
has
to
do
with
whether
or
not
the
property
being
purchased.
It's
inside
of
a
targeted
area
and
a
targeted
area
is
as
an
area
that
has
seventy
percent
of
the
households
at
eighty
percent
of
the
statewide
median
income
levels
and
that's
part
of
the
strategy
to
draw
investment
into
areas
considered
lower-income
and
the
way
the
program
works
is
there's.
I
The
a
tax
credit
is
provided
on
a
portion
of
the
mortgage
interest
and
so
that
mortgage
interest
credit
becomes
part
of
the
buyers
ability
to
repay
alone.
So
it
essentially
has
the
effect
of
increasing
their
income
when
their
loan
is
being
underwritten,
and
so
that
is
what
allows
them
to
qualify
for
the
loan
or
or
qualify
for
a
higher
load,
and
it's
managed
we
piggyback
on
the
county
of
Riverside.
For
this
and
in
order
to
continue
being
a
participant
in
the
program.
They've
just
asked
that
the
City
Council
elect
by
resolution
to
continue
to
participate.
F
Thank
you,
so
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
this
was
really
a
great
opportunity
for
folks
to
you
get
a
twenty
percent
tax
credit.
If
you
qualify
for
this
program
and
I
would
just
like
to
encourage
that
we
do
some
real
outreach
to
Realtors
and
to
the
community,
because
twenty
percent
tax
credit
on
your
mortgage
you're,
paying
twenty
percent
less
of
your
mortgage
is
a
huge
difference
for
people
trying
to
get
into
their
first
property.
F
And
you
know
the
income
levels
go
up
for
households
with
three
or
more
persons,
two
hundred
and
two
thousand
dollars.
So
it
really
is
an
opportunity
for
folks.
So
if
we
can
come
up,
maybe
with
the
plan,
maybe
the
affordable
housing
subcommittee
could
look
at
this,
but
I
think
if
we
can
really
educate
Realtors
I
mean
this
should
be
something
they
would
all
be
really
interested
in
helping
their
clients
with,
and
let
folks
know
about
this
as
broadly
as
we
can.
Thank
you.
Mayor.
D
Councilman
Kors
brought
up
some
of
the
things
I
wanted
to
talk
about,
meaning.
How
do
we
broadcast
this,
but
then
I
got
to
thinking
that
there
are
probably
some
other
great
benefits
and
I
know
that
that
are
offered
through
city
or
through
our
associations.
And
although
we
live
in
a
world
of
a
world
wide
web
I
think
so
much
of
it
gets
lost
and
I
was
wondering,
if
maybe
with
through
our
communications
director,
we
could
come
up
with
a
way
of
maybe
more
regularly
talking
about
these
amazing
benefits
that
are
available
to
the
public.
D
The
right
way
there
they're
gonna,
do
they're
doing
a
whole
PR
plan
to
get
this
out
and
I've
been
involved
with
it
since
the
beginning,
and
it's
been
sort
of
a
pet
project
for
me,
but
I
bet.
If
I
sat
down
with
the
great
doctor
ready,
he
could
tell
me
probably
about
20
or
30
programs
like
this.
That
I
wonder
I
mean
a
page
on
our
website
might
be
nice,
but
I'm
wondering
if
there
are
other
ways
we
can
broadcast.
D
These
amazing
benefits
to
the
people
who
need
them
the
very
most
anyway
so
enough
with
grandstanding.
But
there
was
a
question
in
there
and
are
there
ways
that
we
can
Corral
some
of
these
great
ideas
and
then
broadcast
them
better,
maybe
again
using
our
TV
station.
Maybe
that
could
be
a
commercial
type
thing
that
rolls
between
our
fascinating
meetings.
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
also
got
overly
excited
about
this
and
send
about
ten
questions
to
city
staff
today.
So
thank
you
for
answering
those,
and
those
are
exactly
my
comments
as
well,
that
I
know
we
participated
in
this
program
for
ten
years.
This
is
exactly
the
type
of
program
that
we
want
to
be
engaged
in
to
support
moderate
income
people
to
be
able
to
afford
to
buy
a
home
here
in
Palm
Springs.
C
We
hear
a
lot
from
the
community
that
we
want
to
support
families
and
and
people
on
fixed
incomes,
and
this
is
a
great
program,
so
I
raised
a
number
of
questions
that
it
seems
like
we
participation
here
might
have
been
low
in
the
past
and
some
of
those
questions
about
how
we
can
do
better
outreach
to
the
realtor's
mortgage
brokers.
People
who
will
automatically
I
mean
that
will
help
them
do
their
business
as
well,
because
they'll
be
able
to
better
sell
homes
and
condos.
It
sounds
like
it
doesn't
just
apply
to
single-family
homes.
C
So
maybe
this
is
an
issue
that
our
affordable
housing
subcommittee
could
take
on.
If
Lisa
wants
to
do
that-
and
we
can
talk
more
about
outreach
and
I'd
like
to
see
I
had
asked
the
comparison
numbers,
how
many
people
are
engaging
in
this
program
from
Cathedral
City
or
Desert,
Hot,
Springs
or
our
neighbors.
So
we
can
compare
what
the
average
use
of
this
program
is
and
and
see
some
of
the
best
practices
of
getting
the
word
out.
C
For
example,
its
I
saw
in
the
staff
report
that
we
could
publish
and
public
notice
and
the
newspaper,
but
if
we
spent
that
money
on
Facebook
advertising
or
pushing
out
our
message
in
other
ways,
it
might
be
a
lot
more
effective
to
reach
that
target
market.
So
this
is
one
of
the
things
or
so,
especially
as
you
join
City
Council.
C
D
D
D
A
G
G
And
it
is
incredibly
important
that
we
have
an
immigration
program
that
actually
works
in
our
country.
Unfortunately,
Washington
DC
is
broken
and
Sacramento
is
happening
having
to
step
into
the
breach
and
create
programs
that
allow
for
industries
to
continue
and
for
farm
workers
who
do
unbelievably
difficult
work
in
terrible
conditions
to
at
least
have
a
safe
and
clean
place
to
go
home
to
at
night.
C
C
A
A
Item
item
1i
is
India
customer
Kors,
amicus
brief
in
opposition
to
the
Department
of
Justice
lawsuit
against
the
state
of
California,
as
it
relates
to
Senate
bill
54
assembly
bill
450
and
assembly
bill
103,
and
please
note
there
is
a
revised
staff
report
on
us
this
evening.
Customer
of
course
thank.
F
This
council
has
taken
actions
as
well
to
pass
laws
to
achieve
that,
and
just
really
briefly
what
the
three
bills
are
Senate
bill
before,
which
is
the
California
values
act,
also
known
as
the
California
sanctuary
law,
and
it
prohibits
state
or
local
law
enforcement
from
using
funds
to
enforce
federal
immigration
laws.
We
use
the
funds
for
our
own
policing.
It
prohibits
a
number
of
things.
Law
enforcement
can't
ask
people
their
immigration
status.
F
They
can't
detain
people
beyond
the
time
that
they
are
serving
for
immigration
officials
and
a
number
of
other
things,
including
not
sharing
immigration
information
with
immigration
authorities
at
the
federal
level.
Unless
that
information
is
publicly
available.
Assembly
Bill,
450
and
I
want
to
touch
on
these
two,
because
people
are
not
as
familiar
with
those
but
Assembly.
F
The
other
is
Assembly
Bill
103,
and
this
prohibits
the
state
and
local
agencies
from
contracting
with
the
federal
government
to
detain
immigrants
and
also
allows
the
State
Attorney
General
to
monitor
federal
immigration.
Detention
facilities
make
them
California.
The
only
state
that
is
engaging
in
that
behavior,
and
so
the
state
of
California
is
really
stepping
out
to
take
a
leadership
role
in
this
country
to
make
sure
that
immigrants,
whether
documented
or
undocumented,
are
safe
and
are
protected,
and
this
is
critical.
F
It's
critical
for
families,
it's
critical
for
all
of
these
individuals
who
are
so
scared
right
now
of
what
the
Trump
administration
is
doing.
It's
critical
for
our
law
enforcement,
because
if
people
don't
feel
safe
with
law
enforcement,
they're
not
going
to
come
forward
and
report
crimes
and
they're
going
to
be
targeted
for
criminal
behavior
they're
not
going
to
participate
as
witnesses,
so
I
really
appreciate.
Councilman
for
holstege
actually
brought
this
to
my
attention.
We
both
worked
on
this
together.
We
both
read
the
brief,
which
is
really
excellent.
F
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
think
councilmember
Coors
that
it
quite
well
I
want
to
thank
everyone
who's
here
today,
people
who
spoke
in
public
comment,
I
know
Ken
wood
spoke,
and
that
was
an
incredibly
powerful
personal
experience.
That
was
very,
very
moving.
Thank
you
to
luis
nolasco
for
bringing
this
to
our
city
to
ask
us
to
join
in
the
ACLU
of
Southern
California's
brief
and
their
work
on
this,
which
is
in
partnership
with
a
lot
of
great
organizations
that
are
working
on
the
ground
on
immigrants
rights
every
day.
C
So
thank
you
for
bringing
this
forward,
allowing
us
an
opportunity
to
be
involved
in
this
fight.
You
know
I
always
speak
from
my
personal
experience
on
this
issue,
because
these
are
as
Lois
shared
real
lives
for
people
in
our
community.
You
know
this
is
a
local
issue.
It's
important
for
Palm
Springs
to
take
a
stand.
We're
not
up
here
grandstanding
about
politics.
I've
personally
worked
with
people
in
our
community
who
have
been
arrested
by
ice
at
their
workplace.
C
I
worked
with
actually
the
ACLU
with
a
student
who
was
taken
from
high
school
and
had
ice
working
in
partnership
with
local
law
enforcement,
to
take
them
from
high
school
and
immediately
have
them
leave
the
country
and
to
never
come
back
without
their
parents
involvement.
So
this
is
a
local
issue.
It's
a
public
safety
issue.
C
C
So
it's
an
incredibly
important
issue:
I'm
grateful
for
the
opportunity
to
work
on
it
and
take
a
leadership
role
as
a
city
we're
here
to
stand
up
for
California
values,
we're
here
to
stand
up
for
Palm,
Springs
values
and
for
our
entire
community.
I've
said
from
this
Dyess
before
that
immigrants
are
in
credit.
Undocumented
immigrants
make
significant
contributions
to
our
local
economy
to
our
communities.
C
They
are
our
neighbors,
our
co-workers,
the
kids
and
parents
involved
in
our
schools
and
our
neighborhood
organizations,
and
we
need
to
make
sure
that
they
feel
safe
in
Palm,
Springs
and
in
California,
and
we
will
not
be
bullied
by
an
administration
to
change
our
values
or
to
throw
any
of
our
members
or
our
residents
under
the
bus
and
so
we're
here
to
stand
with
you
and
for
you
and
and
and
fight
with
you,
so
that
you
can
continue
to
live
in
Palm,
Springs
and
feel
safe.
So,
thank
you.
That's.
G
Council,
member
cores
and
holstege
didn't
leave
me
much
to
say,
but
I
certainly
want
to
thank
them
for
the
work
that
they've
done
and
for
their
eloquence.
This
evening,
I
took
an
oath
to
defend
the
Constitution
I
took
an
oath
to
defend
the
people
of
this
community,
and
that
is
exactly
why
I
support
SB
54
a
be
450
and
a
be
103.
G
It
is
exactly
why
I
oppose
efforts
to
break
up
families
that
are
living
and
working
in
our
community
and
but
for
the
broken
politics
in
Washington
DC
that
has
stalled
for
over
a
generation
comprehensive
immigration
reform.
We
would
not
be
here
dealing
with
these
kinds
of
issues
at
the
local
level.
They
happen
on
our
watch
here
locally,
because
Washington
DC
refuses
to
compromise
and
bring
forward
comprehensive
immigration
reform,
and
until
that
happens,
communities
across
this
country
are
going
to
be
facing
these
kinds
of
issues
and
we
will
respond
to
them.
Thank.
F
Thank
You
mayor
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
this.
This
supervisor
many
Perez
has
asked
cities
of
the
Catawba
Valley
to
send
letters
in
and
what
this
will
do
is
we
could
create
a
continuous
appropriation
of
seven
million
dollars
a
year
to
fund
County
Veterans
Services
office
officers.
Those
are
the
folks
who
really
work
with
veterans
to
get
federal
state
and
local
benefits.
It's
just
a
really
important
bill.
F
I
just
want
to
highlight
it
for
folks,
because
if
you
can
send
your
own
letters
in
to
our
Assemblymember
and
Senator
I,
think
that
would
be
really
helpful
because
they
need
to
hear
from
folks
that
anything
that
costs
money
in
Sacramento
is
always
a
hard
thing
to
get
through
it,
but
making
sure
we
have
people
to
get
benefits
which
will
total
a
lot
more
than
this
allocation
is
really
going
to
help
our
vets,
who
deserve
everything
we
can
do
to
help
them.
Thank
you
motion.
A
F
K
We
actually
only
need
to
change
one
word
in
Section
93
2005
to
be
able
to
do
that,
and
so
again
that's
a
simple
change
that
we
can
easily
make.
As
councilmember
Coors
has
indicated.
The
subcommittee
also
requested
some
further
clarifications
in
the
administrative
design
guidelines
relative
to
the
portable
signs
and
the
placement
of
portable
signs
and
maintaining
the
open,
sidewalk
and
so
we'll
be
updating
our
administrative
guidelines
to
reflect
the
changes
that
we're
making
to
the
ordinance
this
evening,
and
that
concludes
my
report
to
you
would
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
K
D
On
Roberts,
thank
you.
I
didn't
pull
this
item
but
record.
My
question
to
you
has
to
do
with
the
open
and
closed
sign
so
going
back
to
many
years
of
that,
I
really
want
to
admit
to
sitting
on
the
planning
permission.
I
think
it
was
even
before
you
got
there.
Elisa
I
think
it
was
Doug,
Hudson,
sorry,
I'm,
going
down
memory
lane.
We
had
a
discussion
before
I.
D
Think
even
you
were
here
when
about
the
proliferation
of
these
open
and
closed
signs
that
are
really
loud
and
blinking
and
swirling
and
spinning
and
I
know
that
our
sign
ordinance
doesn't
allow
that,
and
yet
these
signs
are
very
inexpensive.
You
can
pick
them
up
at
Home
Depot
and
all
these
other
places-
and
you
know
the
last
thing
I
want
to
do-
is
create
more
headaches
for
our
businesses,
but
I've
had
a
number
of
people
ask
me
about
these
signs
because
some
of
them
are
really
bright
and
obnoxious.
How
do
we
handle
that?
D
K
Haven't
been
faced
with
questions
recently,
but
I
know
that
it
hasn't
been
a
concern
in
the
past.
We
do
have
the
ability
to
enforce,
on
that
there's
general
language
in
our
site
and
code
about
flashing
or
blinking
signs,
and
so
that
would
be
the
way
that
we
would
be
able
to
regulate.
That
is
through
language
that
we
have
existing
in
the
code.
The
only
thing
that's
proposed
this
evening
is
to
allow
one
of
those
signs
at
each
public
entrance
into
the
storefront
or
the.
C
You
mr.
mayor
I
also
didn't
pull
the
item,
but
I
just
wanted
to
speak
to
that
issue.
Specifically
a
business
owner
who
came
and
owns
a
larger
space
came
and
asked
us
our
current
ordinance.
The
way
it's
written.
If
you
have
two
different
entrances
that
are
far
apart,
you
can't
have
an
open
sign
on
the
door,
and
so
that
was
her
request.
People
who
come
to
our
subcommittee
meeting,
we
included
that
recommendation
here
and
so
I
value
the
history
there.
C
You
know
we
could
I
don't
want
to
over
legislate
this
thing
and
we've
really
regulated
a
lot.
Council
member,
of
course,
and
I
walked
downtown
Palm
Springs
and
it
was
about
90
degrees
outside.
So
we've
really
done
a
lot
of
work
on
this.
We
could
have
a
limit
based
on
square
footage
or
something
like
that.
But
maybe
a
better
thing
to
do
would
just
be
to
bring
this
back
and
in
a
year
and
see
where
we're
at
and
maybe
not
even
make
any
changes
but
just
see
because
I
am
also
concerned
about
some
of
the.
C
This
is
a
really
different,
difficult
thing
to
legislate
and
it's
almost
a
can
of
worms,
because
when
we
make
some
allowances
it,
you
know
it's
difficult
to
compromise
on
this
issue,
and
so
we've
made
a
lot
of
compromises
here
to
listen
to
the
businesses
and
what
they
need.
You
know
it's
gonna
be
difficult
to
have
a
lot
of
these
signs
in
our
public
right
away
and
we
want
to
make
sure
it's
safe
and
that
it's
not
under
unduly
burdensome
on
staff.
That's
one
of
my
main
concerns
as
well.
C
So
that's
why
we
had
included
it
and
and
based
on
that
specific
request
and
I
think
it
makes
sense
if
you
have
two
doors
that
you'd
have
an
open
sign
on
each,
so
people
know
that
they
can
come
in.
So
those
are
just
my
comments
about
that
issue,
and
you
know,
maybe
you
can
use
your
discretion
about
if
it
becomes
a
problem
that
you
would
bring
it
back
to
us
and
we
can
make
modifications
at
that
time.
Thank.
D
You
and
just
to
clarify
I,
wasn't
asking
for
modifications
and
or
and
I,
have
no
issue
with
multiple
open
and
closed
signs.
It's
the
signs
that
people
are
using
and
my
concern
is,
it
starts
to
set
precedent.
The
our
sign
ordinance
has
always
excluded
blinking
and
spinning
signs,
and
so
I
was
just
a
little
concerned
that
we
were
starting
to
see
that
a
lot
more
than
we
have
in
the
past
sure.
C
A
A
You
that
concludes
our
consent,
calendar
items.
Now.
Next
we
go
into
public
hearings.
We
have
three.
The
first
public
hearing
is
Roxy.
We
have
two:
one
of
them
is
being
deferred.
First,
item:
item
to
a
request
by
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
for
a
zone
text
amendment
to
revise
Palm
Springs
zoning
code,
sections,
90,
100,
10
and
90
4.0
4.0
to
allow
administrative
approval
of
agricultural
structures
and
the
e1
energy
industrial
excuse
me:
Bishop
EEI
energy,
industrial
zone
and
m2
manufacturing
zone
staff
report.
Please,
mr.
K
Mayor
and
members
of
council,
this
item
comes
before
you
this
evening.
Out
of
a
recommendation
of
the
City
Council
business
retention
subcommittee,
I
hope
I
got
the
name
of
the
subcommittee
correct
on
one
of
their
meetings
that
they
held
back
in
March.
The
topic
of
the
approval
process
for
cannabis
facilities
in
our
M,
2
and
E
eyes
owns
was
discussed.
K
One
of
the
things
that
was
mentioned
was
a
way
to
streamline
or
shorten
the
process,
the
architectural
review
process,
and
so
what
I
propose
to
you
this
evening
is
to
exempt
to
agricultural
structures
from
going
through
the
architectural
review
process
in
the
M
2
and
the
e
eyes
owns
by
way
of
background.
Those
two
zoning
districts
are
located
primarily
north
of
the
I-10
freeway
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs,
and
so
consequently,
it's
outside
of
the
urban
core
of
the
city.
K
It's
also
in
an
area
that's
somewhat
challenging
in
terms
of
landscaping
and
other
requirements,
and
so
consequently,
as
this
item
was
reviewed
by
the
Planning
Commission,
they
were
supportive
of
the
request
to
exclude
agricultural
structures
from
the
architectural
review
process.
I
have
since
had
some
additional
input
from
our
city
council
subcommittee
questioning
if
we
could
expand
that
to
not
only
agricultural
structures
but
also
manufacturing
structures
as
well,
and
so
my
response
to
that
would
be
that,
as
there
is
still
staff
review,
we're
still
reviewing
these
projects
for
conformance
to
development
standards.
K
F
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
that
was
exactly
my
comment
as
well,
so
thank
you.
I
think
that
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense
to
expand
into
beyond
just
growing
or
agriculture,
but
really
production,
manufacturing
packaging
I.
My
understanding
of
the
industry
is
that's
where
it's
expanding
to,
because
there
is
so
much
grow
facilities,
at
least
in
cannabis,
that
a
lot
of
the
future
development
will
be.
C
C
You
know
we
want
to
be
careful
about
yeah
what
we're
exempting
then
we're,
basically
incentivizing
those
over
other
uses,
so
for
the
council
to
think
about
that
and
how
what
we
want
to
see
the
development
to
be
there,
and
so
you
had
said
practically
all
of
the
e
1
and
M
2
zones
are
above
the
I-10
freeway.
Are
there
any
other
EE
1
M
2
zones
that
this
would
apply
to
that
are
anywhere
else
in
the
city.
K
You
have
a
map
in
your
backup
materials,
there's
a
portion
of
the
e
Izone
that
is
south
of
the
freeway,
and
so
that
would
also
be
included,
but
it's
north
of
the
railroad
track.
So
again,
it's
a
rather
confined
area
around
the
interstate
there's,
a
small
portion
that
is
south
of
the
freeway,
though
thank.
C
K
C
K
Review
is
not
a
public
hearing.
While
we
do
do
notices
to
our
neighborhood
organizations,
it's
not
a
public
hearing
process.
One
of
the
things
I
will
say
to
be
aware
of
is
that
per
our
zoning
ordinance,
cultivation,
manufacturing
and
testing
all
require
a
conditional
use.
Permit
still
so
they'll
still
need
to
go
through
that
process.
That
process
is
a
public
hearing
and
so
affected.
Property
owners
or
residents
would
be
able
to
comment
on
those
applications
as
they're
going
through
the
conditional
use
permit
process
perfect.
A
A
H
F
B
H
Apologize
I
want
to
speak
at
all.
If
you
can
hear
me,
we
couldn't
want
to
speak
for
director,
but
I
will
say
I,
don't
think
you
necessarily
need
to
add
anything.
Okay,
what
you're
doing
is
carving
out.
These
are
queer
cultural
structures
by
removing
that
phrase,
you're,
essentially
augmenting
the
agricultural
structure.
Definition
beyond.
If
you
do
want
the
belt-and-suspenders,
you
can
have
it
yeah.
H
H
C
J
A
Next
public
hearing
items
item
to

the
city
of
Palm
Springs

a

and

minor
modifications
to
the
list
of
permitted
uses
staff
report.
Please.
Mr.
K
Mayor
members
of
council,
this
zone
text
amendment
also
comes
to
you
out
of
a
recommendation
from
the
City
Council
business
retention
subcommittee.
I
always
have
to
think
as
I
say
that
to
make
sure
I've
gotten
that
right,
one
of
the
discussions
that
they
had
was
relative
to
food
deserts
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
and
making
sure
that
residents
have
access
to
fresh
food.
As
part
of
that,
it
was
brought
up
that
in
our
downtown
area,
specifically
grocery
stores
are
a
prohibited
use.
There
is
language
in
the
city's
general
plan.
K
We
should
amend
our
zoning
code
to
allow
grocery
stores
and
other
personal
service
uses
in
the
downtown
area,
so
that
residents
that
we
hope
to
attract
to
the
downtown
area
would
have
the
the
needs
of
daily
life
as
we
call
them,
and
so
what
you
have
recommended
as
a
subcommittee
is
actually
in
line
with
a
recommendation
from
the
general
plan,
and
so
consequently
this
is
supported
by
the
general
plan.
What
we're
proposing
to
do
is
to
no
longer
let
grocery
stores
remain
as
a
prohibited
use,
but
rather
if
they
are
under
15
thousand
square
feet.
K
So
more
of
a
specialty
market
type
format,
they
would
be
a
permitted
use.
It
wouldn't
require
any
type
of
a
hearing.
If
they're
over
15
thousand
square
feet
in
area,
they
would
require
a
conditional
use
permit.
As
you
start,
to
get
to
a
larger
store
format,
there
tend
to
be
additional
impacts
that
you
have
to
look
at
in
terms
of
traffic
truck
access,
etc,
and
then
also
keeping
in
mind
that
the
downtown
area
or
the
central
business
district
is
a
pedestrian
area
and
larger
format
stores
tend
to
work
against
the
pedestrian
character
of
that
area.
K
That's
one
of
the
reasons
why
we'd
like
to
do
a
conditional
use
permit
for
stores
that
are
over
15,000
square
feet
in
area.
If
you
look
at
your
legislative,
Draft,
you'll
notice
that
there's
a
lot
of
red
in
the
ordinance,
that
seems
a
little
excessive
for
something
where
we're
just
adding
grocery
stores
as
a
permitted
use.
One
of
the
things
that
we
as
staff
would
like
to
do
as
well
is
to
help
streamline
the
list
of
uses
in
our
zoning
code
and
so
we're
taking
this
opportunity
to
do
that
in
the
central
business
district.
K
As
we
amend
other
districts
at
some
point
in
the
future,
we'll
look
at
also
streamlining
the
list
of
uses
and
making
them
consistent.
What
we're
proposing
to
do
is
to
streamline
the
list
of
retail
uses
if
you
read
through
the
code.
Currently,
it
lists
every
type
of
retail
use
imaginable.
Under
the
Sun,
including
dressmaker
shops,
luggage
stores.
Things
like
that
I
think
it's
safe
to
say
that
we
can
categorize
all
of
those
as
retail
uses
as
the
impacts
are
the
same
in
a
similar
fashion.
K
We
list
all
personal
service
uses
such
as
nail
salons,
hair,
salons,
tanning
salons,
shoe
repair
things
like
that
and
again
I
think
that
we
can
consolidate
that
under
the
general
category
of
personal
service
uses,
there's
also
been
some
control,
teen
language
in
the
central
business
district
use
regulations,
one
of
those
is
for
spa
uses.
It
currently
requires
a
land
use
permit
as
a
standalone
use.
K
However,
it
requires
a
conditional
use
permit
when
accessory
to
a
hotel
that
didn't
seem
to
be
consistent
in
our
mind,
and
so
what
we're
recommending
is
to
just
require
a
land
use
permit
for
spa
uses
the
same
thing
with
bicycle
rental.
For
one
reason,
it
was
a
land
use
permit
another
section
of
the
code.
It
was
a
permitted
use
and
then
finally,
we
have
some
language
about
ground
floor
office
use
limitations.
It
was
a
little
bit
confusing
for
both
the
public
and
staff
and
so
we're
proposing
to
clarify
that
language.
K
Now,
since
staff
got
into
the
ordinance,
the
Planning
Commission
also
felt
the
need
to
get
in
and
make
recommendations
as
well.
These
are
their
recommendations
that
they
have
forwarded
to
you
as
the
City
Council,
to
consider
first
going
into
the
concept
of
large-format
retail
stores.
They
had
a
similar
concern,
looking
at
large
grocery
stores,
if
there
were
any
other
large
format,
uses
that
they
should
require
conditional
use,
permit
the
idea
being
that
we
want
to
keep
the
pedestrian
character
of
the
downtown
area.
K
In
addition,
they
also
recommended
allowing
animal
daycare
as
a
land
use
permit
in
the
central
business
district,
but
keeping
it
outside
of
the
defined
village
Center,
and
that
is
defined
as
the
area
between
Bristow
on
the
south
and
a
motto
on
the
North.
Third,
they
requested
that
hotel
uses
require
a
land
use
permit
so
that
we
can
evaluate
parking
and
circulation
associated
with
those
and
then
finally,
they
requested
to
eliminate
the
bank
drive-through.
K
We
don't
love,
Lao,
Drive
thrus
for
any
other
uses,
and
it
just
didn't
seem
to
fit
with
the
character
of
the
downtown
area.
We
did
receive
public
comment
as
this
went
before
the
Planning
Commission.
There
was
a
request
and
you'll
see
that
in
the
backup
that
you
have
associated
with
this
item
to
allow
animal
kennels,
in
addition
to
animal
day
care,
animal
kennels
being
overnight
stays
the
Planning
Commission
considered
this
issue.
They
considered
the
public
comment
that
they
received
associated
with
it.
Ultimately,
their
recommendation
was
not
to
allow
animal
in
the
downtown
area.
K
They
felt
that
that
use
was
more
appropriate
in
our
industrial
areas
or
our
heavy
commercial
areas,
and
so
ultimately
they
did
not
go
with
the
public
comment
request
on
that.
That
concludes
my
presentation
again.
That
was
rather
lengthy
for
what
is
relatively
a
simple
change.
I'll
be
happy
to
take
any
questions
you
might
have
Thank.
D
Thank
You
mayor
director,
a
question
and
a
comment:
first,
a
common
I'm
glad
to
see
this
change
is
coming
and
it
looks
like
you're
getting
excited
about
upcoming
zoning
changes
as
well
as
you're
already
starting
to
clean
things
up
and
it.
It
occurs
to
me
that
when
we
rewrote
the
specific
plan
for
the
downtown
project,
we
we
were
very
specific
about
wanting
a
grocery
store.
So
I
guess
this
is
the
back
up
zoning
that
we
needed
for
that.
Actually.
D
Our
very
Direction
on
that
kind
of
overrode
that,
because
it's
a
specific
plan,
correct
got
it
so
that
could
have
happened
anyway.
Yeah,
okay
and
then
I
found
this
to
be
fascinating.
Specifically,
the
conversations
on
the
Planning
Commission
with
respect
to
animal
kennels
and
I
forget
what
else
was
described.
But
my
only
question
is:
would
an
animal
kennel
also
be
defined
as
boarding
of
animals
correct?
D
So
I,
don't
know
who
spoke
at
that
meeting
or
who
made
that
request,
I'm
wondering
if
it
was
the
new
posh
pet
place
or
whatever
it's
called
right
on
North
Palm,
Canyon
and
I'm
wondering
if
we
have
nice
high-end
places
like
that
that
are
doing
some
overnight
boarding.
Why
we
wouldn't
allow
that?
Are
we
concerned
with
noise
issues
or
that
there
might
be
barking
or
things
like
that,
so
even
in
the
inside,
we
wouldn't
allow
it
on
an
indoor
kennel.
K
Correct
that
was
the
recommendation
of
the
Planning
Commission.
We
did
consider
was
it
possible
or
would
it
be
possible
to
you
know
further
insulate
the
space
you
also
have
to
take
into
consideration
in
the
downtown
area.
We
have
entertainment,
which
may
impact
the
animals
in
the
kennel
as
well.
So
it's
actually
a
two-way
street
as
you
consider
the
issue.
In
addition,
with
the
overnight
boarding,
you
have
additional
concerns
relative
to
the
disposal
of
waste,
also
in
the
downtown
area.
K
It's
helpful
to
have
some
type
of
outdoor
exercise
space
when
you
are
boarding
animals
for
any
period
of
time,
and
typically
that's
not
something
that
you'll
have
in
the
downtown
area.
So
there
were
other
factors
that
they
considered.
The
request
actually
came
from
the
grandpa,
which
is
a
facility
which
is
currently
doing
daycare
in
the
southern
portion
of
the
central
business
district,
and
so
they
are
doing
that
during
the
day,
but
they
are
not
allowed
to
have
overnight
stays.
Okay,.
D
C
K
K
And
I
think
we've
kept
that
more
or
less
in
line.
There
were
some
things,
such
as
video
amusement
arcades,
which
again
that's
from
a
former
era.
Really
that
would
be
incorporated
under
commercial
recreation,
I
believe
so
one
way
or
another.
We
have
been
able
to
incorporate
what
has
been
crossed
out
into
some
other
category
of
use
and
again
the
intent
was
not
to
change
the
uses
in
the
downtown
area,
but
rather
to
condense.
The
list
look
down
to
something
that's
much
more
manageable.
Thank.
C
K
C
Want
to
make
sure
we
weren't
losing
anything
I
appreciate
that
and
I
meant
to
say
in
your
staff
report.
I
understand
that
this
got
a
little
bit
bigger
at
the
Planning
Commission
and
not
from
the
staff
level.
So
I
appreciate
that
information,
so
I
have
a
few
other
questions,
so
we
already
have
existing
drive-thru
use
for
some
of
the
banks
in
that
district.
Is
that
right
actually.
K
I,
don't
believe
that
we
have
any
drive-thru
uses
existing.
Those
that
exist
are
outside
of
the
central
business
district,
I'm
thinking
of
Union
Bank
Bank
of
America.
Those
are
both
outside
of
the
central
business
district
chase.
I,
don't
believe,
has
a
drive-thru
any
longer.
It's
a
walk-up
situation
and
again
the
way
that
banks
are
changing,
that
most
of
them
are
going
to
some
type
of
electronic
format.
That
drive-throughs
are
really
becoming
a
thing
of
the
past
great.
K
C
Of
those
you
know,
I
find
the
the
whole
kennel
conversation.
Interesting,
I,
see
the
arguments,
both
ways,
I
guess
we'll
move
into
discussion
before
making
any
comments
about
that.
Is
there
a
reason
why
the
Planning
Commission
took
that
up
as
an
issue?
Was
it
because
it
was
inconsistent
in
the
code
and
they
thought
that
they
should
clarify
it
or
where
did
that
come
from.
K
No,
that
was
solely
based
on
public
comment
at
our
first
public
hearing,
the
individual
from
the
letter
that
was
submitted,
offered
public
comment
and
requested
that
the
Planning
Commission
consider
that
the
Planning
Commission
put
the
item
on
hold
for
two
weeks.
Continued
it
for
two
weeks
requested
additional
input
and
study
by
staff.
We
provided
that
to
them
and
ultimately,
they
decided
not
to
include
it.
But
again
it
was
originated
from
public
comment.
Thank.
K
K
G
K
Absolutely
you're
right,
ade,
CVS
Walgreens
those
tend
to
be
about
12,000
to
15,000
square
feet,
especially
as
we
look
at
their
urban
formats.
They
generally
are
under
15,000
square
feet.
Those
formats
have
also
grown
in
recent
years
to
offer
fresh
food
as
well,
so
those
would
be
permitted
when
you
get
above
15,000
square
feet,
that's
above
the
size
of
your
typical
Trader
Joe's
or
things
like
that,
it's
getting
into
the
more
full
line
supermarket
and
so
again
it's
looking
at
something
that's
more
of
a
specialty
grocer.
So.
G
All
right
and
my
next
question
I,
want
to
follow
up
a
little
bit
on
the
bank
and
the
drive-throughs
and
I
also
was
originally
mistaken.
As
to
that,
we
had
drive-through
since
I'm
an
old
person
who
uses
drive-throughs
at
the
local
banks,
but
it
does
fall
a
block
outside
of
the
central
business
district,
but
those
are
not
unsightly.
G
They
are
very
attractive
and
useful
for
a
large
number
of
individuals
and
I'd
like
to
get
a
little
more
information
as
to
why
Planning
Commission
believes
that
we
should
ban
any
possibility
of
a
drive-through
in
the
central
business
district.
It
could.
I
can
imagine,
particularly
in
some
of
our
vacant
properties
at
the
north
end
of
Palm,
Canyon
and
Indian
Canyon,
where
it
might
be
appropriate
to
to
have
that
possibility,
and
it
would
be
something
that
would
go
back
to
the
Planning
Commission
for
approval.
G
K
Thinking
of
the
Planning
Commission
was
that
we
are
trying
to
encourage
a
pedestrian
area,
and
so,
as
we
look
at
permitted
uses,
we
want
to
encourage
those
uses
that
are
geared
towards
pedestrians.
It
was
the
feeling
that
drive
through
again
is
an
auto
oriented
focus
and
was
not
consistent
with
the
goals
for
the
downtown
area.
What
I
might
recommend
is
that
the
use
currently
stands
as
a
conditional
use
permit,
and
perhaps
that
would
be
the
recommendation
of
City
Council
as
you'd
like
to
keep
it
as
a
conditional
use
permit.
A
Okay,
I
have
one
question
on
item
I,
which
is
massage
establishments
except
as
otherwise
permitted
and
believing
here
it
says
they
have
to
be
in
conjunction
with
the
Resort
Hotel.
We
have
quite
a
few
of
those
on
Palm
Canyon.
Now
they're,
like
associated
with
nail
salons,
is
that
I
didn't
quite
understand
how
this
work?
Yes,.
K
A
A
K
C
C
K
Is
a
secondary
measure
in
terms
of
conditional
use
permit
requiring
a
conditional
use
permit?
They
were
looking
at
retail
formats,
15,000
square
feet
or
more
than
a
hundred
linear
feet.
A
typical
block
length
is
about
4
to
500
feet,
so
it
would
be
more
than
25%
of
the
block
or
about
25%
of
the
block
again
trying
to
go
back
to
what
is
the
the
pedestrian
character
of
the
downtown
area
and
trying
to
keep
businesses
in
line
with
that
pedestrian
character.
K
K
Are
there
any
stores
down
there
right
now
that
have
greater
than
a
hundred
feet
of
lineal
frontage?
We
looked
at
some
of
the
new
businesses
that
have
gone
in
in
the
downtown
project.
None
of
those
are
either
above
the
square
footage
or
the
lineal
frontage.
If
you
look
at
the
former
Robinson's
department
store,
the
original
store
was
I
believe
about
28,000
square
feet
and
about
120
feet
long.
C
K
C
F
K
Are
in
a
lot
of
downtown's
now
about
three
years
ago
we
had
a
zone
text
amendment
that
went
forward
to
the
Planning
Commission
to
potentially
allow
tattoo
parlors
and
piercing
in
the
downtown
area,
and
I
can't
remember
off
the
top
of
my
head.
If
the
Planning
Commission
had
recommended
approval
of
it,
but
it
didn't
get
pulled
forward.
D
G
K
A
Director
Fang
I
had
one
question
that
brought
up
and
something
customer
holstege
said
brought
to
my
mind.
The
BevMo
is
a
fairly
good-sized
store
and
retail,
and
if
we
had
grocery
stores
they
might
be.
You
know
similar
that
that
the
lighting
in
that
and
BevMo
we've
discussed
the
council
before
is
pretty
ugly
and
garish
is
a
good
word.
A
K
One
of
the
things
that
we
might
do
we've
been
trying
to
work
with
the
property
owner
on
resolving
that
issue.
What
I
would
recommend
is
that
we
actually
go
into
our
outdoor
lighting
ordinance,
which
is
in
the
zoning
code,
and
what
we
need
to
address
in
that
ordinance
is
spill
over
from
interior
uses,
and
so
that's
something
that
the
planning
staff
should
follow
up
with
here
in
the
near
future.
The.
A
D
And
on
a
tail
of
what
the
mayor
is
saying
when
I
don't
know,
if
we
I
know
I
brought
it
up,
I
just
don't
know
if
I
did
it
here
or
in
my
dreams,
but
we're
getting
an
excessive
amount
of
light
out
of
the
front
of
H&M
and
the
store
next
to
it.
It
goes
beyond
garish.
I
did
mention
this
to
the
developer
and
I
got
a
little
bit
of
pushback
but
I'm
concerned
that
it's
a
trend
and
I
think
it's
something
we
need
to
pay
attention
to
having
large
buildings.
D
Downtown
is
one
thing
but
having
them
emit
that
much
light
at
night,
where
it's
literally
reflecting
off
the
windows
across
the
street
I
think
says:
we're
probably
crossing
some
boundaries
here.
Certainly,
if
you
could,
let
us
know
about
that,
and
if
we
need
to
beef
up
any
ordinance
on
that,
maybe
bring
that
back
to
us.
I.
A
Noticed
that
was
addressed
recently
by
the
Planning
Commission.
The
new
Porsche
dealership
didn't
come
to
us,
but
I
was
at
the
Planning
Commission.
They
actually
required
because
they
have
red
lights
going
all
the
way
around
on
each
on
the
building.
They
required
the
developer
to
put
a
rheostat
in
there,
so
it
could
be
adjusted
to
different
brightnesses
if
they,
if
the
light
was
too
garish.
So
that
could
be
something
we
could
look
at
going
forward.
Yeah.
Is
that
conclude
questions
of
staff
before
we
go
to
we're
getting
a
little
past
questions
or
staff
here?
A
A
C
You
I
just
wanted
to
comment
about
this
kennel
issue
and
and
I
respect
the
work
of
the
Planning
Commission
and
actually
to
hear
staff's
recommendations,
as
well
as
the
recommendations
from
Planning
Commission
is
very,
very
helpful
to
us
in.
In
making
that
decision.
We
do
have
a
lot
of
high-end
pets,
paws
that
are
the
new
trend
and
actually
we've
had
some
difficulty
retaining
those
businesses.
For
example,
we
had
barkingham
Palace
is
that
still
in
the
district
there,
because
it's
before
Ramon,
so
they
went
out
a
bit.
C
They
were
a
doggy
daycare
and
they
went
out
of
business.
I
think
that
they
had
a
hard
time
sustaining
the
level
of
business
there
without
kennels.
So
I
did
see
here
that
we
have
one
business,
the
grandpa,
that's
requesting.
You
know
this
change
in
another
business
that
is
opposing
it.
So
I
see
the
argument
on
both
sides
there,
but
it
is
an
interesting
issue
for
us
to
address
and
and
maybe
the
Planning,
Commission
and
staff
did
that
work.
C
But
you
know
as
we're
talking
about
we're,
allowing
spas
and
and
nail
salons,
and
things
like
that.
It
just
doesn't
seem
to
me
that
different
to
allow
these
high-end
spas
for
pets
that
also
include
kennels,
so
I
mean
I'm
happy
to
defer
to
the
staff
recommendation
on
that,
but
it
really
is
a
changing
market
and
the
kennels
of
when
this
was
written
and
the
boarding
facilities
that
are
today
because
I've
seen
them
that
costs
of
hotel
levels,
they're,
really
nice
facilities,
often,
and
so
to
me,
it's
a
lot
more
like
that
than
it
is.
D
Know
I
tend
to
agree
with
you,
which
is
why
I
had
brought
it
up
earlier
with
staff.
But
I
was
swayed
by
the
impacts,
argument
and
I
can
see
if
you
were
a
business
or
a
restaurant
or
a
nail
salon,
or
a
figure
salon
next
door
that
having
a
lot
of
barking
door,
dogs
or
any
odors
could
be
a
real
problem
and
the
the
thing
that
swayed
me,
the
most
was
the
outdoor
recreation
area
and
I.
D
You
know,
I,
don't
know,
I
mean
I'm,
I'm,
Christi,
I'm,
open
to
that,
as
well
with
a
Cu
P
or
with
very
specific
conditions
to
try.
It
I
think
it
would
warrant
sending
it
back
to
the
Planning
Commission
to
really
put
together
a
list
of
conditions
that
something
like
that
could
fall
into
because
I
agree.
More
and
more
people
want
to
are
looking
for
places
to
park
their
pets
overnight,
or
so
when
they
travel
and
these
places
have
become
deluxe
they're.
No
longer
they
no
longer
look
like
the
animal
rescue
places,
especially.
C
As
we
have
high
income
tourists
who
are
traveling
here
and
staying
in
hotels,
they're
going
to
maybe
want
to
board
their
people
are
traveling
with
their
animals.
Now
there
are
parts
of
our
family
and
so
they're
bringing
dogs,
and
they
want
them,
either
the
hotels
to
be
dog
friendly
or
we're
such
a
dog
friendly
town
in
Palm
Springs.
That
makes
sense
to
me
that
we
would
at
least
look
at
it.
So
right
now
it's
listed
as
prohibited
uses
may
be
your
argument.
There
would
be
to
put
it
to
a
Cu
P.
D
D
K
Certainly,
what
I
would
recommend
that
we
do
is
to
pull
this
issue
separate
from
the
other
changes
that
are
proposed
here
this
evening,
send
it
back
to
the
Planning
Commission
to
formulate
conditions
that
could
be
imposed
as
part
of
a
conditional
use
permit
and
and
minimum
standards,
and
then
to
bring
that
back
to
you
at
a
later
point
in
time.
I.
D
C
Second,
that
and
I
would
also
actually
request
that
tattoo
parlors
be
included
in
that
consideration,
because
I
think
there
are
also
a
lot
of
high-end
tattoo
parlors
and
that's
sort
of
a
discriminatory
rule
there
and
a
lot
I
can't
think
of
the
number.
But
a
big
majority
of
Millennials
have
tattoos
and
it's
a
big
part
of
it.
So
you.
D
Knew
Millennials
well
in
Jeff
chorus
fighting
for
it
as
well,
because
of
all
the
tattoos
that
he
shows
as
well.
But
I
am
more
than
happy
to
amend
my
motion
to
include
tattoo
parlors,
though
I
would
add
to
that
Flynn.
As
a
note,
I'm
still
concerned
about
the
aesthetics,
I
love
the
new
high
end
tattoo
places,
but
not
all
of
them
are
that
way.
So
that
would
be
important.
K
G
F
F
If
we're
gonna
send
a
couple
things
back,
my
preference,
we
let's
send
it
all
back
and
get
Planning
Commission
to
weigh
in
a
little
more
on
what
criteria
might
be
I
mean,
for
example,
on
the
overnight
dog
kennels
I,
probably
would
not
I.
Don't
support
that
I
I'm
happy
to
hear
it
I,
don't
what
the
direction
to
be.
We
want
you
to
come
up
with
something
because
I
don't
know
that
that
may
be
work.
Council
is
just
we
wanted
them
to
maybe
think
about
these.
F
A
little
more
based
on
our
conversation
with
the
dog
kennels
in
particular
I'm
concerned
about
you
know:
existing
businesses
who
opened
with
the
old
rules
there
weren't
going
to
be
dog,
kennels
next
door
to
them
to
all
of
a
sudden,
have
dog
kennel
facilities.
Next
to
a
restaurant
that
or
other
businesses
who
had
opened
and
invested,
and
we're
talking
about
one
small
part
of
the
city,
they
can
be
everywhere
else
doesn't
seem
like
a
good
idea
and
fair
to
the
other
businesses.
F
G
A
A
Counselor
holstege
I
might
note
that
you
know
things
are
changing
downtown
night.
The
I
noticed
the
row
in
hotel
is
very
dog-friendly
and
they
have
a
lot
of
dogs
staying
there
with
their
owners.
So
I
think
we're
seeing
that
changing,
because
tourists
are
wanting
to
keep
their
dogs
and
I
think
the
hotels
are
actually
accommodating
that
so
I
couldn't
ask
for
a
better
kennel
in
the
Rowland.
Could
you
so
next
item?
We
will
be
moving
on
ahead
to
item
item
to
see
by
the
way
is
we
don't
have
to
open
that?
A
Do
we
see
de
Klerk,
okay
to
item
to
see
will
be
moved
to
June
6th,
okay
item
4a
under
unfinished
business,
a
discussion
and
adoption
of
the
statement
of
principle
schedule
and
community
outreach
tools
to
aid
in
the
transition
from
an
at-large
electoral
system
to
a
district
based
electoral
system
for
members
of
the
City
Council
revised
on
May
15
2000
18
staff
report.
Please
have
a
staff
report.
A
E
B
On
council,
this
is
a
request
for
the
City
Council
to
discuss
and
adopt
a
statement
of
principles.
The
schedule
of
public
hearings,
as
well
as
study
sessions
or
community
events,
and
to
approve
use
of
the
community
outreach
tools
to
aid
in
the
transition
from
an
at-large
electoral
system
to
a
district
based
electoral
system
for
members
of
the
City
Council
in
the
packet.
You
have
a
list
of
principles,
statement
of
principles
that
were
developed
by
a
working
group
along
with
the
council
subcommittee
on
the
CVRA
issues,
and
then
the
draft
schedule
of
public
hearings
and
events.
D
G
Okay,
thank
you.
What
we're
bringing
for
you
is
two
items,
a
statement
of
principles
and
a
schedule.
Obviously
this
schedule
is
one
that
is
subject
to
amendment
and
change
and
if
you
will
note
the
footnote
at
the
bottom,
it
does
allow
that
City
Council
the
city,
the
council,
ad
hoc
committee
or
the
city
clerk
can
make
changes
to
the
schedule
as
needed
and
when
needed.
So
that
was
a
protection
that
we
wanted
to
get
in
and
I
want
to
thank
our
city
clerk
for
that.
G
He
has
had
experience
with
these
issues
in
the
past
and
identified
for
us
the
need
for
that
kind
of
flexibility.
But
let
me
go
back
to
the
statement
of
principles
because
I
think
they're
something
that's
very
important.
So
that's
page
three
in
the
report
and
our
goals
to
maximize
the
goals
of
the
California
Voting,
Rights,
Act
and
those
are
to
increase
participation
of
minority
voters
in
local
government.
G
Second
goal
is
to
prioritize
the
creation
of
majority
minority
districts
that
may
or
may
not
be
possible
in
Palm
Springs.
We
don't
have
that
data
before
us
yet,
but
where
it
is
possible,
we
want
to
take
and
do
that.
The
third
goal
is,
to
the
extent
practical,
to
keep
our
organized
neighborhoods
intact.
Our
organized
neighborhoods
have
provided
a
rich
trove
of
people
who
have
participated
in
those
neighborhoods
and
moved
on
to
serve
the
city
in
a
variety
of
roles,
including
by
being
elected
to
our
City
Council.
G
To
allow
neighborhoods
to
stay
intact
means
that
a
neighborhood
will
not
be
divided
into
two
different
City
Council
member
districts.
Fourthly-
and
this
is
a
principle
that
we
are
following
the
example
of
other
cities-
city
clerk's
experience
in
South
Pasadena,
but
that
is
to
identify
upfront
the
principle
that
every
elected
official
owes
their
first
responsibility
to
the
city
as
a
whole,
not
to
any
individual
district.
But
what
works
for
the
interests
of
the
city
of
as
a
whole
in
terms
of
process,
we
want
to
evaluate
every
our
current
structure.
G
All
of
the
demographics
make
comparisons
to
other
cities.
There
are
many
comparable
cities
who
have
gone
through
this
and
ultimately
come
up
with
recommendations
for
a
structure
of
government
that
best
meets
meets
the
needs
of
our
city
now
and
in
the
future.
We
can
only
do
that
to
the
extent
that
we
encourage
and
work
through
as
many
public
policy
meetings
with
as
much
outreach
to
our
community
as
we
can.
G
Coincidentally,
with
that
work,
we
will
have
our
committee
that
we
have
asked
to
be
the
working
group
examining
all
of
the
various
policy
issues
studying
every
form
of
government
that
we
could
come
up
with
and
making
recommendations
to
us
based
on
their
experience
and
their
research
as
to
what
is
the
best
structure
of
government
for
us
to
have
moving
forward,
we
will
break
during
the
mother.
Our
traditional
August
break
come
back
in
September
and
in
the
September
meetings,
be
concentrating
on
the
questions
of
what's
the
most
appropriate
structure
of
government.
G
Making
those
decisions
at
the
first
meeting
in
October
then
concentrating
the
discussion
in
October
on
narrowing
down
to
a
small
number
of
maps
for
us
to
consider.
Holding
those
meetings
in
November
to
narrow
again
are
the
number
of
maps
until
at
our
first
meeting
in
December,
we
will
make
a
determination
that
would
be
final
as
to
what
the
map
would
be
that
we
would
have
going
forward
and
I
will
note
again
that
this
is
all
subject
to
amendment
as
needed.
G
Our
goal
throughout
all
of
this
is
to
ensure
that
we
have
as
much
public
outreach
as
we
can.
We
are
scheduling
meetings
that
will
occur
at
the
north
end
of
town
in
the
James
O
Jessie
Center,
here
at
City
Hall,
potentially
at
the
convention
center
at
DeMuth
Park,
and
we
are
even
considering
having
meetings
on
the
west
side
of
town
and
at
the
far
south
end
of
town,
to
make
sure
that
we
do
outreach
throughout
our
community.
F
F
F
The
main
thing
really
I
think
to
point
out
is
require
to
have
two
hearings
before
the
the
map
process
starts,
which
is
really
where
the
the
demographer
and
one
I
think
will
come,
and
our
city
clerk
and
the
other
will
just
explain
the
process
and
teach
people
how
to
use
the
maps
and
then
there'll
be
three
study
sessions
in
different
places,
really
designed
to
teach
people
how
they
can
use
the
online
tools
to
draw
in
submit
districts
and
from
the
city
clerk's
experience.
He
didn't
feel
council
needed
to
be
at
all
those.
It
could
be.
F
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
thank
you
for
all
of
this
work
and
especially
the
updated
staff
report,
which
I
found
really
really
helpful
and
and
the
updated
statement
of
principles
so
I
know
this
is
one
of
these
things
that
it's
like
four
pages
and
it
represents
dozens
of
hours
of
work
for
city
staff
and
our
council
subcommittee.
So
thank
you
for
this.
C
Just
a
few
comments
and
questions.
I
would
like
from
city
city
staff,
just
some
more
information
about
the
legal
process
and
the
mapping
process,
so
I
can
wrap
my
head
around.
What
that
all
entails
and
looks
like
so
I
can
better
understand
this.
This
timeline,
especially
you
know,
maybe
at
just
at
the
next
council
meeting
you
know
official
notice
of
public
hearing
scheduled
it
would
be
good
to
give
the
public
to
an
overview
about
well.
This
is
the
process
and
a
nutshell.
C
B
B
The
demography
is,
you
know,
appropriate
across
all
these
districts
that
that
might
create,
and
then
the
third
level
would
be
the
online
interactive
mapping
tool,
and
that
includes
instructional
videos,
because
it
is
complex
because
it
is
a
very
strong,
powerful
tool
and
then
some
instructions
that
go
with
that.
The
third
public
hearing
is
when
those
maps
will
be
presented
to
the
City
Council
and
then
from
there.
As
councilmember
Middleton
had
stated,
this
City
Council
will
make
a
decision
or
some
direction
about
the
governance
that
they
want
to
focus
on
and
then
from
there.
B
There
will
be
another
opportunity
for
public
to
refine
those
maps
as
well
as
demographer,
and
then
those
maps
will
Ginn
be
presented
at
the
fourth
public
hearing,
at
which
time
my
experience
is
that
the
demographer
will
actually
be
here,
and
you
can
give
him.
You
know
narrow
it
down
to
one
or
two
maps
that
he
can
play
with
and
then,
as
you
are,
giving
him
direction
on
changed
this
neighborhood
changed.
This
neighborhood
moved
the
line
here.
B
C
B
B
Good
thing
from
my
last
experience
is,
instead
of
having
public
hearing
notices
that
go
out
individually.
What
we
did
last
time
is
we
created
a
public
hearing
notice
that
addresses
all
of
the
public
hearings
so
that
people
will
have
the
sequence
and
then
little
descriptions
of
what
each
public
hearing
is
for
and
then,
as
we
refine
that
the
dates
for
those
study
sessions
will
include
that
in
the
notice
as
well
and.
E
Also,
I
would
note
that
I
think
what
we
have
the
document
here.
It's
it's
a
very
formal
well
laid
out
for
official
business
work,
but
I
think
what
we're
going
to
do
is,
like
I
said,
put
together
a
flowchart,
because
the
the
subcommittee
anticipated
several
mailings
as
educational,
an
easier
to
read
user-friendly
format
that
narrows
it
down,
so
that,
along
with
the
mailings
and
the
significant
outreach
from
our
consultants
and
with
the
neighborhood
groups,
I
think
we
you're
saying
is
to
make
this
easier
for
people
to
comprehend
right.
C
C
So
are
we
and
I
know
we
talked
about
hiring
an
outreach
consultant
for
some
of
this
work,
so
is
that
included
in
this
scope
of
work
that
you've
laid
out
in
the
outreach
for
the
community
meetings?
Okay
and
then
I
just
noticed-
sometimes
we're
talking
about
like
harder
to
reach
communities
and
using
that
those
words,
but
I'd
really
like
us
to
see
underserved
are
underrepresented
because
it
almost
makes
a
judgment
call
about.
You
know
about
that.
C
When
really
we
need
to
do
the
work
to
outreach
to
them
and
bring
them
in
and
then
my
last
comment
is
about
the
statement
of
principles
which
I
think
is
excellent,
and
I
think
it's
really
great
to
have
this
document.
So
thank
you
for
that.
I
would
like
it
to
see
something
to
say
something
about
civil
rights
or
equity
or
inclusion.
C
It
makes
it
look
very
formal,
like
we're
just
only
doing
this,
because
we
have
to
and
I
don't
think
that's
our
position,
so
my
proposal
would
just
be
for
the
goals
to
add
a
little
phrasing,
maximize
the
goals
of
the
California
Voting
Rights
Act,
including
civil
rights,
equity
and
inclusion,
or
something
like
that.
That
would
show
our
that
Palm
Springs
values
and
why
we're
doing
this
and
that's
all
I
have
thank
you.
A
Okay,
a
question
on
process
here:
customer
Mendelssohn
is
talking
about
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
meetings
and/or
the
subcommittee
is,
and
their
public
meetings
both
these
public
meetings.
It's
just
a
question.
Well,
they
all
be
announced
or
such
that
notice,
such
that,
if
more
than
two
council
members
want
to
be
at
them,
they
can.
We.
A
I
would
trust
and
says
all
of
us
have
very
soon
with
what
60
subcommittees
and
I
have
how
committees
always
have
very
busy
City
schedules.
So
hopefully
we'll
get
these.
You
know
we'll
know
about
these
meetings
as
well
as
far
in
advance
as
possible,
not
to
debate
tonight,
but
one
thing
I
want
to
make
sure
in
our
process.
When
we
talk
about
the
structure
of
government,
the
best
achieves
the
goals
of
the
CVRA,
etc.
I
know
it's
a
very
complex
legal
issue.
Mr.
A
Cochran,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
include
in
this
discussion
the
option
of
four
districts
and
directly
elected
mayor
or
five
districts
and
a
rotating
mayor,
and
we
need
some
since
we're
a
charter
city,
and
that
makes
it
a
little
complex.
We
really
need
some
definitive
answers
on.
Can
we
do
that?
What's
the
process
for
doing
that?
How
would
we
do
that,
etc?
Even
as
late
as
today,
we
don't
really
have
definitive
answers
on
that.
A
D
The
possibility
of
even
having
seven
seven
member
Council
with
potentially
outlaw
urghhh
council
members
as
well
as
districts,
because
that's
happened
as
well.
I
just
want
to
say
quickly
for
the
record.
Looking
I
want
to
thank
the
subcommittee
for
putting
together
this
exhaustive
list
of
potential
meetings.
I
do
like
the
idea
of
the
subcommittee
overseeing
a
lot
of
these
meetings
without
the
full
council.
Just
because
I,
like
the
informality
of
those
type
of
meetings
and
I,
think
it
makes
the
public
more
at
ease
in
these
discussions.
D
H
H
G
J
G
Very
important,
but
this
is
a
decision
that
all
five
of
us
need
to
make,
and
it's
extremely
important
issues
for
absolutely
every
one
of
us
and
if
the
wish
of
the
council
is
to
be
president
at
every
one
of
those
meetings
and
that's
how
we
should
set
it
up
it.
This
is
not
a
subcommittee
decision.
It
has
to
be
the
full
council
that
is
involved
in
it.
C
You
so
I
just
had
a
follow-up
question
about
that.
If
there
are
legal
requirements
about
the
legislative
record
or
the
you
know
record
that
we
keep
if
it
matters
if
their
formal
or
informal
meetings
that
way,
because
I
see
the
value
I,
really
like
the
format
of
having
an
informal
four,
you
know
format
so
that
people
can
really.
We
can
sit
casually
and
we
can
be
heard
and
I,
especially
think
that
for
people
who
are
underrepresented
coming
to
a
space
like
this,
where
we're
sitting
up
high
and
in
a
way
is
more
difficult
to
access.
C
H
H
Get
that
meeting
what
I
was
going
to
say
in
that
response
was
that
we
have
to
remember
that
this
process
initiated
even
though
Palm
Springs
as
a
City
Council,
has
embraced
the
CVRA
process
by
a
demand
letter
issued
by
an
attorney,
and
so
I
can
certainly
correspond
with
mr.
Shankman
he's
been
extremely
responsive
to
all
of
our
inquiries.
I
don't
want
to
discuss
and
debate.
I
can
certainly
put
it
on
closed
session
agenda.
H
E
I
would
I
recommend
councilmember
it's
clearly
for
up
all
the
formal
meetings.
All
the
formal
meetings
will
be.
Their
minutes
will
be
there,
but
what
I
suggest
because
of
the
importance
of
this
I,
think
even
it's
your
informal
meetings
subcommittee
that
are
informed
was
just
the
two
council
members
I,
you
know,
may
need
little
extra
resources,
but
I
think
the
clerk
or
staff
should
be
there
and
they
should.
We
should
have
formal
meetings
even
of
those
informal
meetings,
minutes
of
those
informal
meetings,
so
we'll
go
a
little
beyond
what
we're
required
to
do.
Thank.
C
C
C
If
you
could
explain
some
of
the
work,
because
that's
a
big
idea
and
I
think
it's
important
for
our
city,
but
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we're
talking
about
all
the
different
values
and
we
don't
want
to
have
to
gerrymander
a
district
so
that
it's
it's
not.
It
doesn't
make
sense.
So
so,
if
you
could
explain
the
reasoning
for
the
working
group
and
and
why
that
was
included
here
and.
F
Anything
part
of
that
is,
you
know.
Once
we
have
the
demographic
data
right,
if
we
can
draw
and
its
prioritize
not
requiring
which
already
minority
districts,
everyone
felt
we'd
like
to
try
and
do
that,
so
it's
making
a
priority,
but
not
a
requirement,
and
until
we
see
the
maps
that
may
dictate
how
many
districts
we
want
to
have
right,
you
might
get
a
larger
more
likely
to
do
it
with
smaller
number
of
districts.
You
might
get
with
larger
and
that's
something
we
just
don't
know.
So
we
wanted
to
make
that
something.
F
We're
really
focused
on
probably
higher
than
the
next
one,
which
is
keeping
neighborhood
existing
neighborhoods
intact,
which
is
also
a
priority.
I
think
the
clerk
had
shared
with
us.
There
was,
you
know,
one
area
that,
because
they
kept
neighborhoods
intact
instead
of
the
other,
actually
lost
the
Latino
member,
because
they
could
have
changed
it.
Three
blocks
and
changed
had
a
different
result.
So
it's
just
something
I
think
we
wanted
to
put
at
the
top
of
the
list.
F
C
That's
interesting,
thank
you,
because
I
I'm
looking
at
them
as
equal
goals
and
so
yeah
that
was
a
bit.
My
concern
is
that
we
have
these
organized
neighborhoods,
which
are
so
helpful
to
our
city.
If
those
were
created
at
a
time
that
minority
voters
didn't
have
a
lot
of
influence,
or
you
know,
control
over
how
those
were
even
organized
yeah,
that's
interesting!
C
F
Yeah,
it's
not
a
it's,
not
a
requirement
of
the
California
law,
but
it's
safe
to
say
it's
a
goal,
and
so
that's
why
we
use
the
working
group.
Really
camp
was
very
thoughtful
and
went
back
and
forth
onwards
is
prioritizing
one
and
the
others
to
the
extent
practical
to
try
and
send
that
message
that
one's
a
higher
priority
than
the
other
but
they're
both
things
with
we'd
like
to
see
happen.
I
support.
C
Had
proposed
and
I'm
open
I
just
wanted
to
see
something
about
our
city,
values
and
mission
there,
but
prioritize
the
creation
of
majority
oops.
Sorry.
First,
one
maximized
the
goals
of
the
California
Voting
Rights
Act
CBR,
a
comma,
including
civil
rights,
equity
and
inclusion,
I'm
open
to
wordsmithing
that,
but
something
about
civil
rights.
F
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
the
only
thing
I
wanna
share.
In
addition
to
this
schedule,
the
subcommittee
is
planning
to
you
know
meet
with
various
organizations,
and
so,
if
they're
organizations
who
want
to
meet
and
get
you
know
separate
meetings
just
to
educate
on
the
process,
whether
it's
business
groups,
neighborhood
groups,
etcetera,
were
you
know
we're
open
to
that
as
well.
That's
separate
from
sort
of
the
bigger
study
sessions
that
we're
looking
at.
A

A
Vip
motorcar
is
requesting
an
amendment
to
an
existing
sign
district
to
add
133
square
foot,
sign
at
the
mercedes-benz
dealership
located
at
409

s,
pom
Canyon
Drive
zone
c2
and
indicate
in
the
Indigo
Auto
Group,
requesting
an
amendment
to
an
existing
sign
district
to
add
five
signs
for
a
proposed
new,
auto
dealership,
building
located
377
east
palm
Canyon
Drive
zone
c2
staff
report.
Please.
Mr.
K
Mayor
members
of
council,
you
have
before
you
this
evening
a
sign
district,
one
of
the
things
I
want
to
make
clear.
This
is
different
than
a
sign
program,
the
responsibilities
of
which
you
have
put
back
on
the
Planning
Commission.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
understand
the
difference
between
the
two.
This
particular
sign
district
applies
to
the
auto
dealerships
that
are
located
on
East
Palm
Canyon.
K
K
Secondly,
with
the
new
Porsche
dealership,
we
need
to
identify
their
signage
as
part
of
the
sign
district
and
incorporate
that,
in
terms
of
the
sign
that's
being
proposed
for
the
mercedes-benz
dealership,
it's
a
relatively
small
sign
of
approximately
30
square
feet
in
area,
it's
for
the
AMG
mark,
which
they
will
advertise
there
on
the
north
elevation
of
the
building.
Again,
it's
a
relatively
minor
sign
that
will
be
added
to
the
existing
sign
there
on
the
building,
and
that's
the
only
proposed
changed
on
the
Porsche
dealership.
K
As
you
may
be
aware,
the
major
architectural
application
for
the
dealership
was
approved
by
the
Planning
Commission
several
months
ago.
I
just
want
to
also
clarify
that
the
red
LED
lighting
that
was
pointed
out
earlier
has
specific
conditions
on
it
that
the
Planning
Commission
imposed
on
that
to
make
sure
that
it
does
not
impact
adjacent
properties
for
the
Porsche
dealership.
They
are
requesting
a
total
of
five
signs.
K
One
is
the
brand
name,
of
course,
which
will
be
the
largest
sign
on
the
building
and
will
be
a
wall
sign
and
just
going
back
to
that
previous
image,
it's
shown
there
on
the
right,
which
will
be
the
North
elevation
of
the
building
facing
east
Palm
Canyon.
There
is
a
second
wall
sign
that
is
proposed
immediately
adjacent
to
the
entrance
of
the
building
relatively
minor
in
nature,
and
then
they're.
Also
asking
for
three
freestanding
signs.
One
is
their
primary
freestanding
sign
which
will
be
on
the
it's.
K
The
bottom
one
shown
there
on
the
image
near
the
driveway
that
is
furthest
to
the
east
and
then
there's
also
a
second
one
of
approximately
the
same
size
indicating
the
service
area
there
on
the
west
side
of
the
site
and
then
in
between
there's
a
smaller
directional
sign,
which
indicates
the
way
to
the
service
area,
parts
and
parking.
So
those
are
the
signs
that
are
proposed
for
the
Porsche
dealership
again,
because
this
is
a
new
building
that
wasn't
contemplated
under
the
original
sign
district.
K
We
need
to
add
it
to
the
sign
district
for
its
signage,
on
that
building
the
architectural
Advisory
Committee
reviewed
the
proposed
amendments
to
the
sign
district.
They
recommended
approval
of
those
with
some
rather
minor
modifications
that
the
applicant
has
incorporated,
and
so
consequently,
we
bring
this
forward
to
you
for
approval.
With
the
recommendation
of
the
AAC
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
might
have
and,
as
was
stated
earlier,
the
representatives
for
the
applicant
are
also
here
in
the
audience.
If
you
have
questions
for
them,.
A
N
You,
mayor
and
council,
the
city
previously
awarded
a
landscape
maintenance
contract
citywide
in
2016,
and
that
was
a
comprehensive
contract
that
included
all
the
landscape
maintenance
throughout
the
city.
When
we
bid
that
in
2016
we
actually
received
one
bid,
and
at
that
time
we
thought,
perhaps
we
should
give
thought
to
breaking
it
up
into
sub
contracts,
to
invite
more
competitive,
bidding
and
I'm
happy
to
report
to
you
that
through
our
efforts
this
year,
that
is
indeed
what
has
happened.
So
we're
recommending
to
you
that
you
approve
three
contracts.
N
One
contract
would
be
to
conserve
land
care
in
the
amount
of
six
hundred
eighty
two
thousand
and
fifty
four
dollars
that
would
be
for
maintenance
at
our
various
city
parks.
The
other
contract
would
go
to
pwl
c2
Inc
for
the
amount
of
four
hundred
eight
thousand
six
hundred
ninety-eight
dollars.
That's
for
landscape
maintenance
and
grounds
maintenance,
services
at
various
city
facilities,
and
then
the
third
contract
would
be
with
urban
habitat
environmental
landscapes
for
two
hundred
fifty
six
thousand
two
dollars
and
20
cents
for
assessment,
districts,
parkways
and
medians
throughout
the
city.
N
N
N
Our
current
contractor
didn't
disclose
the
fact
that
they
had
prior
litigation
that
we
found
against
them
on
some
of
their
contracts,
which
is
one
of
the
one
of
the
elements
in
the
the
bid
document,
and
so
for
that,
on
that
basis,
we're
recommending,
as
we
reserved
in
all
of
our
bids,
your
your
right
to
reject
all
bids
as
you
see
fit
and
rebid
that
contract.
So
with
that,
mr.
mayor,
we
would
recommend
the
actions
in
the
staff
report.
Thank.
A
C
You
mr.
mayor
I
just
have
a
quick
question,
so
we
received
an
email
from
Mariposa
today
at
2:30
which,
by
the
way
to
the
public,
usually
we
go
into
closed
session
at
3:00
or
4:00.
So
if
you
want
to
email
us
about
an
issue,
that's
on
the
agenda.
I
know
everyone's
busy,
but
earlier
the
better,
so
Marcus
I
know
you
I
forwarded
that
to
you.
Did
you
look
at
that?
So,
even
if
we
reject
all
bids,
they'll
have
an
opportunity
to
rebid
and
and
fully
respond.
Is
that
right?
That's.
C
G
Want
to
make
note
that
we
have
I
have
in
the
past,
asked
the
question
as
to
whether
or
not
the
employees
of
these
contracts
were
receiving
a
living
wage
and
councilmember.
Holstege
and
I
have
not
had
an
opportunity
to
work
on
that.
Yet
with
Council
I
want
to
move
this
forward,
but
that
remains
a
priority
of
ours:
to
bring
forward
to
council
a
living
wage
recommendation
for
all
contractors.
A
A
A
E
You
mayor
members
of
council
what
we
wanted
to
present
this
evening,
the
the
Airport
Commission
has
voted
to
approve
a
recommended
budget
to
submit
to
City
Council,
and
so
that's
what's
before
you
this
evening.
I
just
want
to
highlight
a
couple
items
in
the
budget
and,
of
course,
the
airport
director.
Mr.
Nolan
is
here
and
Hank
can
answer.
Any
specific
questions
you
might
have
I
would
just
want
to
have
a
PowerPoint.
So
what
Vance
this
I
would
I
would
just
like
to
note
a
couple
things
on
on
the
budget
of
a
particular
interest.
E
If
you'll
see
they're
about
four
lines
down,
what
we
see
is
a
transfer
to
the
PIRs
reserve
fund.
As
you
know,
city
council
had
created
our
pers,
which
is
the
CalPERS
reserve
fund
for
the
general
fund.
The
airport
also
has
employees
that
that
that
fund
actually
would
pay.
So,
oh,
but
you
see
the
area
over
the
two
fiscal
years
is
about
a
million
dollars
that
we've
set
aside
into
that
pers
fund,
so
I
thought
that
was
important
there.
E
You
also
note
here
is
that
the
revenues
and
expenditures
we
are
in
a
balanced
budget
with
a
small
surplus,
even
with
that
additional
money
into
the
purse
fund.
I
would
note
also
you
see
there
close
to
the
bottom,
the
inter
agent
interfund
transfer
to
the
general
fund
of
287
thousand.
That
is
the
dollars
that
the
airport
pays
to
the
city
general
fund
for
all
our
administer
services.
E
The
capital
projects
are
listed
here.
We've
gone
over
those
a
little
bit
in
during
our
capital
discussions,
but
I
thought
it
was
important
to
list
them
here
again
now,
and
you
can
see
that
that's
that
list
and
if
there's
certainly
any
further
direction
on
that
we
can
modify
this
list.
I
would
note
one
thing:
you'll
see
there
is
the
whole
room,
seating,
180
thousand
dollars.
We
are
looking
for
new
chairs
around
the
airport
there.
E
The
quite
old
subcommittee
of
the
Airport
Commission
is
going
to
be
making
a
recommendation
and
we
will
bring
that
to
Council
when
they're
ready
to
go
forward.
Another
highlight
I
think
I
would
notice
that
the
Kirk
Douglas
way
we
hope
to
get
that
repaved
this
year
as
well
and
I
would
just
like
to
mention
a
couple
things.
Obviously,
the
airport
is
continuing
to
grow.
E
We
have
our
10
Airlines
and
it's
continuing
to
grow
our
passenger
count,
as
you
can
see
a
year
by
year,
from
2015
to
2018,
we're
up
now
to
2.2
million
passengers
and
claimants
and,
as
part
of
that
is
we're
continuing
our
expansion.
Part
of
the
expansion
here
is
just
some
pictures
from
the
preparation
phasing
of
the
ticketing
wing,
which
will
be
a
larger
project
over
the
next
couple
years
and
the
phono
office
build-out.
Now
this
is
interesting.
I
just
wanted
to
note.
E
As
you
know,
it
goes
to
the
exigency
of
needing
to
expand
the
ticket
counter
wing.
As
you
can
see,
this
was
the
congestion
with
our
growth
in
passengers.
Obviously
that
brings
congestion
in
a
older,
smaller
facility.
So
obviously,
as
you
know,
the
plans
call
it's
going
to
be
at
least
30
feet
wider
once
that
that
project
is
is
complete
and
I
would
just
finally
note
that
the
airline
activity
is
up.
E
A
percent
over
the
first
four
months
of
this
year
and
as
part
of
that
these
are
some
of
the
announcements
that
we
made
on
new
airlines
and
airline
service,
the
the
most
recent
at
the
bottom.
There
you
see,
United
Airlines
announced
nonstop
sewer
service
to
Newark
us
beginning
this
fall,
which
is
Minh
working
on
direct
flights
to
New
York.
E
As
you
can
see,
Seattle
27,
Denver,
34,
Salt,
Lake
32,
that's
the
level
of
flights
that
we've
had
to
each
of
those
cities
in
that
month
in
the
day,
so
I
think
these
are
important
milestones
and
with
that
is
our
airport
budget
and
again
mr.
Nolan
is
here
to
address
any
specific
questions
you
might
have
and
for
your
discussion.
Thank
you.
C
Always
have
a
question.
Mr.
mayor
I
just
have
a
question
about
the
pers
reserve,
so
it
looks
like
I
was
trying
to
figure
out
what
had
been
budgeted
for
that
reserve
or
if
it
was
just
additional
that
was
added
in
the
last
fiscal
year
and
sort
of
why
the
determination
of
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
put
into
it
for
this
upcoming
year.
So.
E
Each
year
in
the
actual
expenditure
line
items
the
new
pers,
the
personnel
costs
include
what
the
current
annual
payment
is
for
the
CalPERS
for
that
year
for
each
employee.
What
this
AddThis
represents
is
that
additional
fund,
which
we
tried
to
do
based
on
the
percentages
council
wanted
to
achieve
for
the
general
fund.
So
we
did
did
it
for
the
airport
fund
over
two
years,
just
because
they
had
it
was
easier
to
take
the
800,000
from
last
year's
budget
projected
and
and
the
200
from
this
year
that
got
us
to
the
million.
E
C
Sense,
thank
you
and
then
I
had
another
question
about
the,
for
example,
page
five
on
the
staff
report.
It
says
the
projected
reserve
fund
and
the
balance,
and
so
for
the
last
fiscal
year
we
had
a
project
Reserve
of
about
6.5
million,
and
then
this
coming
fiscal
year
the
budgeted
amount
is
3.8
and
I
was
wondering.
You
know
what
the
airport's
goal
is
for
the
reserve
and
and
if
there
are
objectives
there
about
operating
days
or
weeks
for
the
reserve.
E
Yeah
there's
a
sort
of
a
long
and
short
answer
that
the
short
answer,
I'm
going
to
give
you
in
the
longer
answer.
Maybe
Tom
can
help
with,
but
part
of
what
the
larger
Airport
reserves
had
was
long
story
short
was
part
of
the
wastewater
treatment
plant.
Well,
once
that
was
that
was
sold
to
the
wastewater
treatment
plant,
that
money
went
to
the
airport
reserve
and
that's
what
created
it
was
a
you
know
several
million
dollars
that
they
had
in
there
that
they're
drawing
down
basically
for
capital
projects.
E
That
being
said,
our
revenues
are
exceeding
our
expenses,
but
we're
coming
into
a
negotiation
period
with
the
airlines,
and
we
know
that
some
of
our
fees
at
some
point
may
have
to
increase.
Also
we're
going
to
be
getting
FAA
dollars
every
year
that
go
into
our
capital.
So
that's
sort
of
like
the
general
answer,
but
Tom
I
don't
know
if
there's
more
specific
questions
or
you
want
to
add
to
that.
E
L
E
E
A
E
E
Just
a
little
bit
more
perfect
right
there
so
that
that
list
that
adds
up
to
a
million.
Those
are
the
things
that
City
Council
has
suggested
that
we
we
bring
back
for
you
for
consideration.
Many
of
the
items
on
here
you've
seen
over
the
last
several
meetings.
The
new
ones
on
this
are
the
the
contract.
You
know
the
California
voter
rights
acts
act
for
the
district
district
union
in
that
process.
We've
anticipated
that
would
be
about
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
E
Other
tennis
starter
program
at
Ruth,
Hardy,
Park,
fifty
thousand
and
the
Arts
Commission
has
requested
a
administrative
support
in
that.
That
is
primarily
because
their
revenue
is
roughly
about
two
fifty
a
year
and
obviously,
if
you
take
that
eighty
thousand
dollars
out
of
their
revenue
for
administrative
support
that
reduces
their
ability
to
purchase
and
procure
art.
That
being
said,
that
was
just
their
recommendation,
and
so
that
is
on
their
list
for
you
to
consider
and
give
us
direction
at
a
future
time
as
well.
E
I
would
note
that,
below
that
the
other
general
fund
items
we've
been
talking
about
we're
gonna
have
the
need
for
additional
support
in
the
cannabis
area.
In
inspections,
not
only
as
part
of
the
initial
application
process
but
ongoing,
as
well
as
a
testing
that
and
the
additional
safety
fire
inspections
that
we
need
to
be
doing
in
that
universe
of
inspections
working
with
the
fire
chief,
this
is
the
this
structure
that
we
came
up
with
that
we
think
would
be
best
and-
and
you
see
those
positions
listed
there.
E
I
would
note
that
the
$500,000
of
that
cost
is
anticipated
to
be
offset
by
the
the
revenues
that
we
will
be
collecting,
both
in
the
inspections
and
in
the
cannabis
activity
as
well,
and
finally,
the
sustainability
Commission
you
see
at
the
bottom,
there
has
recommended
that
we
go
back
and
rehire
the
sustainability
manager
position
that
we
have
have
not
had
that
position.
Over
the
last
couple
years,
we've
we've
tried
to
address
it
with
through
through
J
virata's
office
and
and
certainly
some
some
of
the
staff
that's
there.
E
But
at
this
point,
obviously
the
agenda
and
the
things
that
they're
requiring
I
think
it's
probably
time
that
we
revisit
that
position,
because
they
have
quite
a
quite
a
few
things
on
their
agenda.
So
that
being
said,
that's
the
list
of
items
and
I
would
just
note
that,
with
this
additional
1.2
million,
where
we
originally
had
a
small
surplus,
we
that
puts
us
into
a
deficit
position,
and
this
is
on
the
other
sheet
that
that
was
included
of
about
$52,000.
So
still,
basically,
that's
essentially
a
balanced
budget,
but
it
is
it
a
minus
52,000.
B
A
I
Thank
mr.
mayor,
Mayor,
Pro
Tem.
As
you
know,
we
have
an
agreement
with
the
county
of
Riverside
University
Health
System
behavioral
system
to
provide
staffing
for
mental
health,
housing
crisis
response
team
and
they
provide
referrals
and
linkages
to
those
in
need
of
assistance
to
community-based
mental
health,
substance
abuse
and
social
service
resources.
Yeah
and
through
an
innovative
partnership
with
desert,
Healthcare
Foundation,
the
city
will
be
able
to
add
a
second
team
for
mental
health,
housing
crisis
response,
and
this
will
increase
the
level
of
services
offered
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
and
reach.
I
Even
more
individuals
in
need.
The
desert,
Healthcare
Foundation,
will
match
up
to
$350,000
for
the
second
mental
health
crisis.
Response
team
desert
health
care
foundation
will
also
match
up
to
$100,000
for
wraparound
services.
These
our
case
manager
and
employment
services
serving
the
homeless
for
a
total
match
of
$450,000
so
to
establish
the
wraparound
services
in
Palm
Springs
staff
work
with
the
council's
homeless
standing
subcommittee
in
January
of
2018.
I
For
the
solicitation
and
release
of
a
request
for
qualifications,
the
RFQ
was
sent
to
14
service
providers
and
on
March
1st,
we
received
four
responses
which
included
Coachella
Valley
rescue
mission,
Jewish
Family
Services
of
San
Diego,
Martha's,
Village,
Inn,
kitchen
and
path
of
life
ministries.
The
subcommittee
met
and
reviewed
the
submissions
on
April,
2nd
and
directed
staff
to
work
with
Martha's,
village
and
kitchen
kitchen
to
structure
a
contract
for
wraparound
services
to
bring
to
be
brought
back
to
the
full
City
Council
for
consideration.
I
What
Martha's
offers
are
a
variety
of
case
management
and
employment
services,
along
with
training
and
counseling
services,
and
these
include
computer
related
skills
assessments,
interviewing
skills
with
video
review
processes,
interview,
clothing,
hygiene
needs.
They
also
provide
support
services
for
such
as
transportation
and
message
line
for
employment
responses.
I
Wraparound
service
clients
may
also
enroll
in
Martha's,
culinary
training
program.
Martha's
is
planning
to
provide
services
at
the
well
in
the
desert
between
the
hours
of
8:30
and
4:00
o'clock
Monday
through
Friday,
the
holidays
would
be
observed.
Also,
they
have
52
trained
line
staff
which
enables
them
to
assign
appropriate
staff
and
begin
services.
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
thank
you
so
much
I
just
wanted
to
give
actually
I
don't
have
questions
of
staff.
I
just
wanted
to
comment
as
a
subcommittee.
So
thank
you
to
staff
for
all
their
work
on
this.
This
is
a
really
exciting
program,
I'm
glad
that
we
took
it
from
the
consent
calendar
to
new
business.
It's
important
for
the
community
to
know
about
the
work
that
we're
doing
in
our
leadership
role
in
alleviating
homelessness
and
palm
springs.
We
get
a
lot
of
questions
about
that.
So,
yes,
this
allows.
C
As
Jay
explained,
this
allows
wraparound
services
and
employment
services
by
Martha's,
Village
and
kitchen,
which
is
an
expert
and
providing
these
types
of
services.
We
did
a
city
of
Palm
Springs
did
a
pilot
program
which
the
staff
report
explains
with
these
types
of
services
at
Roy's
before
it
closed,
and
we
tracked
the
outcomes
and
data
from
that
pilot
program,
and
it
was
very,
very
successful
in
getting
people
into
employment.
Public
benefits,
housing.
C
So
we
know
that
we
can
have
sort
of
a
one-stop
shop
for
people
so
they're,
not
just
you
know,
while
they're
trying
to
get
out
of
the
heat
they
can
also
be
connected
to
you
rate,
resume
building
and
online
services
and
a
actual
case
worker
who
will
connect
them
with
services
which
has
been
so
successful
in
our
model.
The
only
comment
that
I
think
I
had
and
that
our
subcommittee
wanted
to
see
is
this
leaves
some
money
on
the
table.
C
So
there's
an
extra
fifty
thousand
dollars
that
we
could
add
to
this
contract
because
of
the
way
that
the
matching
funds
work.
So
we
I
know
we
had
talked
as
a
subcommittee
with
staff
about
leaving
that
open,
but
if
we
could
expand
the
contract,
if
there
are
additional
services
there
that
we
could
add,
if
you
have
a
recommendation,
that
would
be
good
because
we
want
to
use
up
every
matching
dollar:
that's
free
money
to
our
city
from
desert
healthcare,
district
hi.
I.
O
O
It
is
also
less
traumatic
on
individuals
if
we
can
keep
them
in
their
housing.
So
it's
a
direction
to
think
about.
It
is
allowed
I
believe
by
the
healthcare
district.
You
would
have
to
check
into
it,
but
it
is
something
that
Martha's
does
at
Martha's.
I
just
signed
another
one
for
rental
assistance.
Today
there
is
criteria
to
it.
Martha's
is
used
to
doing
it,
setting
it
up
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
Martha's
really
brings
to
the
kitchen
or
to
the
kitchen.
The.
O
O
The
thing
is
is
that
we
bring
our
own
database,
which
is
going
to
be
very
interesting
to
you
guys,
because
we
were
tailor
it
to
this
population
in
Palm
Springs,
so
we'll
be
able
to
bring
a
lot
of
information.
So
when
you
look
at
it
next
year,
you
really
can
see
where
the
impact
is
where
the
trends
are
going
and
what's
going
on
with
the
population.
But
I
would
indeed
take
a
look
at
the
prevention
piece
and
use.
O
Maybe
those
dollars
to
keep
those
families
in
their
homes
that
we
do
utility
auto
repair,
do
a
lot
of
investigation
because
a
lot
of
times
if
the
car
breaks
down
the
gun
lose
a
job.
So
we
may
do
an
auto
repair
end
and
make
that
payment
and
then
uber
for
a
week,
so
that
they
can
stay
in
their
job
and
continue
to
pay
their
rent.
There's
a
lot
of
ways
to
do
prevention.
So
just
that's
my
input.
Thank.
C
You
that's
very
helpful,
so
I
think
it
would
be
a
question
to
staff.
I
would
like
to
see
that
to
provide
emergency
assistance
funding
if
it's
allowed
by
this
grant,
which
I
just
don't
know
for
the
benefit
of
the
council,
actually
Coachella
Valley
Association
of
Governments
in
their
contract,
with
path
of
life,
just
expanded
to
that
exact
type
of
emergency
assistance
to
help
someone
maintain
their
job
there's.
C
A
F
O
F
A
You
next
item
in
public
comment.
This
time
has
been
a
set-aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
City
Council
on
items
of
general
interests
within
the
subject
matter:
jurisdiction
as
a
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
posted
agenda.
Two
minutes
will
be
assigned
to
each
speaker.
Our
first
speaker
is
Chris,
Van,
Houten
and
then
Alan
worthy.
J
Thank
You
America
members
of
the
City
Council
I,
am
the
proud
coach
of
probably
the
best
group
of
women
you'll
ever
want
to
know.
Part
of
them
are
here
right
now.
These
are
the
Coachella
Valley
Derby
girls.
We
have
been
doing
roller
derby
here
in
Palm
Springs
for
five
years.
In
fact,
five
years
ago
we
came
to
you
and
we
needed
your
help
for
a
practice
facility
and
I'm,
currently
we're
at
James
O
Jesse,
and
we
thank
you
that
you've
helped
us
for
that.
J
We
are
a
team
that
it
plays
everywhere
from
south
of
the
border
up
to
Northern
California,
there's
a
there's
over
probably
15
to
20
teams
within
about
a
75
mile
radius
of
us
all.
Just
women
to
same
derby
is
their
sport
and
I'm
proud
to
help
them
along.
We
are.
We
are
homeless,
as
it
relates
to
a
venue
to
play
our
bouts
I
like
taking
our
show
and
going
on
the
road
and
showing
the
people
elsewhere.
What
we
can
do,
but
I
want
to
do
it
here
in
our
in
our
own
City.
J
That
being
said,
you
guys
are
the
experts
at
what's
available
out
there
and
I
know.
Somebody
here
has
the
answer
and
I
don't
know
and
expect
it
right
now.
Of
course,
we
want
to
do
this
four
or
five
times
a
year
could
be
in
the
off
season
could
be
nachus
that
could
be
July.
Our
Jim
currently
is
just
a
hair
too
small,
as
it
relates
to
safety
and
our
insurance
requirements
and
and
what
it
requires
to
actually
put
on
a
proper
about
venue.
J
I
know
we
have
outbuildings
and
some
aviation
buildings
and
possibly
some
high
school
of
air
areas
that
just
have
flat
concrete
and
a
roof,
and
that's
what
we're
looking
for
we're
gonna
be
bugging
you
with
emails,
but
I
just
wanted
to
say
hello.
These
are
my
girls,
they
just
want
to
skate
and
we
want
to
bring
entertainment
to
Palm
Springs
and
we
hope
we
can
get
some
some
help.
If
you
think
of
something,
please
pass
it
along
to
us.
J
J
Well,
good
evening,
mayor
and
council,
so
shall
we
consider
that
meeting
at
the
convention
center
to
be
a
turning
point?
I
hope
so
really
I
hope
so
so
I
I
have
amended
the
demand.
Mr.
cotton
and
you
know,
as
I
said
before,
you're
in
default
and
appreciate.
If
you
would
answer
this
demand
and
we
get
this
nightmare
behind
us.
Okay,
it's
hard
to
keep
a
straight
face
in
the
out
there.
When
you
are
talking
about
what
it
was.
It
item,
C
loans
for
everyone.
J
Will
this
demand
when
you
answer
it
will
help
me
get
out
of
the
mess
and
the
chain
of
fraud
that
has
taken
place
on
my
condo
just
sat
empty
and
Selma's
virtual
squatter,
okay
on
fraud,
and
we
need
to
cure
it.
Okay
and
then
equality
age,
one
I
mean
come
on.
You
need
to
live
up
to
what
you're
saying
in
this
Middleton.
Mr.
J
J
So
please
let
me
say
that
for
the
last
time
sure
the
situation
my
exhibit
a
is
woman
accused
of
stealing
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
from
a
relative
in
Palm
Desert
she's
arrested
this
caregiver
from
hell
and
his
cousin
have
robbed
me
and
my
family
into
the
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars.
Perhaps
a
million
dollars
I,
don't
have
a
you
know,
estimate
or
whatever
you
call
it.
An
appraisal
on
every
single
thing
that
was
stolen
police,
seek
help
public's
help
in
identifying
armed
robber.
Well,
that's
here
in
Palm
Springs.
How
do
you
know
it's
not
rene/pearl?
J
Oh
my
caregiver
from
hell
or
his
cousin,
where
the
Cesar
Cortez
the
convention
center
I
named
them
for
the
first
time.
Second
time,
I'll
just
keep
naming
them
until
you
get
around
to
arresting
them
and
Thank
You
lieutenant
Araiza
for
your
help
and
your
Gil
fated
attempt
to
recover
my
Mercedes,
but
it
was
chopped
up.
Thank.
A
G
A
G
A
G
You
second,
thank
you
to
the
mayor
and
to
every
Christina
Chartier
who,
for
all
of
the
work
that
went
into
Monday
evenings
League
of
California
cities
meeting
here
in
Palm,
Springs
I.
Think
many
of
us
sitting
around
the
table,
though,
were
very
disappointed
at
the
legislative
update
and
then
request
to
vote
on
so
many
different
issues
in
such
a
short
period
of
time
and
not
having
good
notice
in
advance
as
to
what
legislation
was
going
to
be
coming
before
the
league
for
meetings.
I
did
have
conversation
with
the
president
and
with
the
second
vice
president.
G
G
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
had
also
just
identified
just
one
thing
about
the
California
League
of
Cities,
which
councilmember
Middleton
raised,
that
they
threw
at
us
dozens
of
different
legislation
to
take
a
side
on
or
to
pose
or
recommend
supporting,
and
it
seemed
like.
I
had
a
lot
of
questions
about
the
process,
just
our
internal
process,
about
if
we
are
voting
per
person
or
if
we're
voting
as
a
body.
C
If
our
vote
is
for
the
body,
then
we
need
to
have
a
system
about
notification
and
bringing
that
forward
to
this
City
Council
so
that
we
can
decide
how
to
support
or
oppose.
It
seemed
like
the
league
in
our
division
took
stances
that
we
as
a
city
might
disagree
with,
especially
on
some
of
the
bills
related
to
housing
and
I'd
like
to
see
us.
C
You
know,
have
a
structured
way
of
bringing
that
forward
so
that
we
can
really
have
a
position
and
a
plan
and
going
to
those
meetings
so
that
you
know
I'm
happy
to
stand
up
then,
and
but
I
really
want
the
authority
of
our
our
council
to
do
that
and
disagree.
And
you
know
just
for
the
public
and
bringing
forward
some
of
these
bills.
C
That
is,
you
know,
sent
more
to
LA
or
San
Francisco,
Bay,
Area
or
other
urban
areas,
and
so
my
hope,
by
taking
stances
on
some
of
these
bills
and
contacting
our
elected
officials,
is
that
we
can,
you
know,
get
a
piece
of
that
pie
as
we're
considering
bills
and
being
more
involved
in
that
process.
So
I'd
like
to
also
see
us
bring
that
forward
as
a
formal
process
to
consider
our
stances,
especially
for
the
league.
Thank
you.
Thanks.
F
Thank
you
both
because
that
just
reminded
me
of
something
I
forgot,
which
is
the
next
council
meeting
the
first
one
in
June,
will
be
the
one
right
before
we're
going
to
be
in
Sacramento.
Do
lobbying
councilmember
Middleton
I
are
working
on
setting
up
some
visits,
but
if
there
are
specific
bills
that
any
council
member
thinks
we
should
take
a
position
on
and
potentially
Lobby
and
support,
or
opposing
I
presume
they
would
send
those
to
the
city
manager.
So
we
can
maybe
just
whole
package
on
the
city
council
agenda
at
the
next
meeting.
F
F
But
that
way,
if
you
know,
because
we're
gonna
have
to
break
up
in
groups
of
two
due
to
the
Brown
Act,
to
make
sure
we
have
taken
positions
in
addition
to
something
we've
already
taken
positions
on
and
if
we
can
get
the
list
of
the
bills.
We've
taken
a
position
on
this
year.
That
would
be
really
helpful
because
then
we
don't
have
to
revote
on
those
two
other
things
just
for
the
next
meeting.
F
There
may
be
just
a
status
update,
so
we
know
if
they're
gonna
be
ready,
is
the
sort
of
construction
debris,
recycling,
ordinance,
I,
know
that
was
slated
to
come
back
either
in
late,
May
or
June,
and
also
the
ordinance
regarding
significant
remodels
that
are
basically
of
buildings
within
the
Historic
Site
preservation
board's
jurisdiction
to
make
sure
that
those
don't
basically
a
demolished
under
the
term
remodel.
So
if
those
are
close
to
ready,
it'd
be
great
to
have
those
on
in
the
first
meeting
of
June,
and
if
not,
you
know
the
next
meeting
in
June.
K
K
K
I
D
Thank
You
mayor
kaká
ready
I'm
impressed.
We
have
a
team
here
in
the
room.
I
only
wish
they
were
wearing
their
skates,
to
show
us
their
real
spirit
and
I
and
I
very
much
appreciate
them.
Coming
in
their
coach
coming
and
I'm
wondering
what
assistance
we
can
offer
them.
The
pavilion
comes
to
mind.
I,
don't
really
know
what
their
space
requirements
are.
The
the
ballpark
comes
to
mind
and
I.
D
D
I'd
love
to
question
them
a
little
bit
more,
but
I'm
wondering
if
we
can't
at
least
have
Vicky
or
somebody
within
our
staff,
see
if
there
are
spaces
that
we
can
help
them
with,
because
I'd
love
to
support
the
team,
and
you
know
we-
we
need
all
the
recreational
opportunities
we
can
have
for
younger
people
and
I'm
thrilled
they're
doing
it
and
I
love
their
coach's.
Enthusiasm
he's
my
new
hero,
so
it
I
don't
know.
E
Certainly
I
don't
know
their
specific
issue.
I
think
it
has
to
do
with
our
facilities
will
aren't
what
they
need
for
their
competitions.
That
being
said,
I'll
be
happy
to
reach
out
to
the
team
I
work
with
Vicky
and
we'll
see.
If
we
can't
find
a
resolution
and
I'll,
let
council
know
for
some
extraordinary
action
that
might
be
required.
I.
D
Mean
it's
probably
unrealistic:
I
haven't
been
through
all
the
spaces,
but
in
the
iHub
or
there
I
know,
there's
some
large
spaces
that
some
of
those
people
work
in
I'm,
just
I'm
kind
of
going
through
the
rolodex
in
my
head
on
our
spaces
and
I.
We
probably
don't
have
anything
big
enough
and
unless
the
pavilion
works,
but
it's
just
something
or
an
airport
hang
or
just
something
something
we
can
explore.
D
Perhaps
the
other
thing
I'm
hoping
we
can
I
know
you
have
it
on
your
list
for
future
items,
but
I'd
love
to
see
the
animal
breeding
ordinance
come
back
as
soon
as
possible,
but
the
animal
breeding
ordinance
backyard
breeding
and
then
I'd
also
like
to
rekindle
the
downtown
furniture
discussion
in
speaking
with
Stacy.
A
bench
alternative
that
we
had
chosen
is
finally
I
guess
coming
in
tomorrow
and
I'd
like
to
get
that
discussion
going
because
I
know
they're
ready
to
get
going
on
this.
D
D
Also,
the
styrofoam,
the
elimination
of
styrofoam
in
the
city
and,
of
course,
the
plastic
drinking
straws
to
go
with
it.
I
can
tell
that
councilman.
Holstege
is
serious
with
me
on
this,
because
she
posted
something
pretty
ugly
on
Facebook
recently
about
the
amount
of
plastic
and
garbage
that
we're
all
getting
we're
all
drowning
in
now
so
I'd
love
to
be
a
city
that
could
set
set
some
new
standards.
For
that.
A
Jack
I
appreciate
customers
bringing
up
about
the
the
remodeling
and
demolition
issue,
because
I
was
at
the
HS
PB
just
recently,
as
I
said
earlier,
and
there's
been
two
significant
homes
recently
that
had
a
remodel
and
they
basically
were
demolished
and
another
one.
It's
in
the
key
and
and
the
cue
right
now
from
the
1930s
to
be
demolished
and
not
to
say
every
house,
but
just
cuz.
D
K
A
At
the
last
meeting
there
was
there
was,
the
discussion
was
on
I
can't
remember
the
name
in
old,
Las
Palmas,
a
house
from
1938,
and
it
had
a
remodel
permit
and
virtually
everything
is
gone,
but
part
of
the
casita
everything.
So
this
has
happened
twice
in
the
last
few
months.
So
it's
just
something
you
know
I'm
not
saying
we
should
save
every
building,
but
every
building
needs
to
have
its
day
in
court.
Well,.
K
D
A
C
C
I
could
just
respond
to
count
mayor,
pro-tem,
Roberts's,
requests
about
the
backyard
breeding
or
the
animal
ordinance,
so
I
as
the
liaison
to
the
animal
shelter
I'm
working
with
a
subcommittee
of
former
councilmember
Jenny
foud
and
a
few
other
people
who
are
on
the
board
of
the
shelter
and
they're
bringing
forward
and
working
on
an
entire
legislative
package
about
animal
rights
in
our
city.
So
we
are
working
on
that
and
we're
gonna
bring
it
forward
to
the
city
attorney
and
we'll
bring
a
whole
package
of
all
of
those
issues.
For
you
soon.
Thank.
