Their
first
public
hearing
is
a
request
by
freehold
communities
llc
for
an
extension
of
time
for
a
previously
approved
preliminary
plan,
development,
district
and
major
architectural
approval
for
the
construction
of
a
153
unit,
condominium
complex
on
an
undeveloped
15
16.1
acre
parcel
in
planning
area
5
of
phase
1
within
the
mural
on
development
located
at
801
sunrise,
parkway
staff
report.
Please.
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
planning
commission.
I
was
just
waiting
for
our
it
to
to
put
the
display
on
okay.
Here
we
go
all
right
once
again.
Thank
you,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
planning
commission.
So
if
you
recall
this
project
was
approved
by
the
planning
commission
on
july,
25th,
2018
and
also
by
the
city
council
on
september
20
september,
13,
2018,
preliminary
plan
development,
district
applications
and
major
architectural
approvals
are
only
good
for
two
years.
They
are
valid
for
two
years,
so
the
two
years
is
up.
E
The
applicant
freehold
communities
did
did
request
for
an
extension
of
of
time
on
time,
consistent
with
the
code
requirements,
so
just
a
little
background.
First
of
all,
let
me
just
show
this
is
an
area
view
of
the
the
site
itself
and
some
of
the
surrounding
vicinity.
E
So
this
next
slide
here
is
the
overall
site
plan
of
so
this
next
slide
here
is
the
overall
site
plan
of
miralon
and
in
particular,
the
multi-family
residential
area.
So
this
area
that
I'm
highlighting
here
is
the
parcel
in
question
that
the
extension
of
time
has
been
sought
for
the
the
single
family
residential
component
of
it,
surrounding
the
parcel,
and
also
to
the
north
of
that
site
is
the
amenity
center,
I'm
not
sure
if
any
of
the
commissioners
has
been
at
the
site.
E
Lately
there
are
several
construction
activities
going
on
at
the
site,
especially
the
amenity
center,
and
then
the
single
family
residential
buildings
that
have
been
that
are
underway
by
two
different
two
separate
builders.
So
to
say
again,
this
is
the
overall
side
plan
of
the
mirror
along
project
and
again
this
is
the
the
parcel
that
is
in
question.
That's
that
planet
area
5
is
designated
for
the
153
unit
condominium
complex.
E
This
is
just
the
this
is
the
the
crop
out
of
the
parcel
itself,
so
real
quick.
There
has
been
no
specific
changes
to
the
site.
It
remains
the
same
as
was
approved
in
2018.
E
E
The
floor
plans,
as
you
approved
it
in
2018,
remains
exactly
the
same.
These
are
various
type.
There
are
five
different
floor
plans
that
you
are
proved
it
remains
so,
and
these
are
just
some
of
the
elevations
of
the
the
units
that
yeah
that
you
approved.
So
there
are
again
five
different
plans
and
they
all
remain
the
same.
E
So
going
back
to
the
staff
report,
you
notice
that
staff
was
able
to
make
all
the
findings
all
the
seven
findings
that
is
required,
and
most
of
them
were
based
on
the
information
supplied
to
the
department
by
the
applicant.
E
E
E
However,
with
the
outbreak
of
kobe
19
that
put
a
stall
to
the
progress
of
being
able
to
sell
or
to
complete
the
agreement
at
the
time-
and
he
also,
we
also
told
by
freehold
that,
as
of
today,
plants
are
underway
to
market
that
parcel
for
a
a
potential
buyer
that
will
prepare
the
final
pdd
plans.
That
will
be
brought
back
to
you
for
review
on
for
your
consideration.
E
E
There
has
been
installation
of
landscape,
and
especially
the
olive
groups
that
you
approved
about
four
years
ago,
and
there
are
two
different
builders
that
are
currently
building
and
selling
single
family
units
in
that
area,
and
I
might
just
add
that,
very
soon,
perhaps
in
the
next
couple
months,
nada
buyer
will
be
coming
up
with
final
development
plans
for
your
review
and
consideration.
E
E
E
A
F
Sure
and
edward
did
a
fantastic
first
of
all
brad
chuck
art
with
freehold
communities
and
please
I
often
have
to
find
trouble
with
my
microphone.
So
if
that
happens,
wave
at
me
and
I'll
pull
the
plug
on
it.
F
So
I
appreciate
the
audience
with
the
planning
commission
and
your
continued
support
of
the
mural
on
project.
I
I
you
know
I
can.
I
think
edward
did
a
great
job
of
summarizing
kind
of
where
we
are
with
the
project
it
has
taken
longer
to
get
going.
The
good
news
is,
we
are
now
well
underway,
as
edward
suggested.
The
amenity
center
is
very
near
completion,
and
I
would
strongly
encourage
to
the
extent
that
you
have
the
time
to
come
out
and
see
it.
F
It's
a
fantastic
facility
and
we
do
have
had
much
success
with
on
the
single
family
side.
We've
got
two
active
builders
with
a
third
ready
to
break
ground
here
in
the
next
couple
of
months.
They
should
be
submitting
plans
to
the
city
within
a
month
or
two
and
hope
to
pull
permits
shortly
thereafter,
with
respect
to
the
multi-family
parcel,
we
knew
that
that
was
going
to
trail,
the
single
family.
F
But
from
you
know
the
architecture
committee,
the
planning,
commission
and
the
city
council
the
time
we
thought
that
would
give
a
leg
up
to
our
prospective
buyers
and
hence
you
know
seeking
the
approval
back
in
2018,
we
started
the
marketing
process
for
the
parcel
in
2019,
actually
selected
a
buyer
and
we're
negotiating
a
contract
that
bled
into
2020
and
unfortunately,
the
world
changed
in
early
2020
and
that
that
buyer
fell
out
of
the
deal.
F
So
we
have
since
remarked
the
project
we
have
received
a
couple
of
different
offers,
we're
evaluating
those
offers-
and
I
just
had
a
call
today
with
our
principal
owners-
and
I
think,
we've
we've
made
a
selection,
so
we
will
be
negotiating
a
term
sheet
with
a
buyer
here
in
the
within
in
the
coming
weeks,
with
the
anticipation.
F
As
these
things
go,
we
will
have
the
buyer
will
if
we
can
come
to
terms
enter
into
a
60-day
feasibility
period
after
that
they
will
begin
to
process
the
final
development
plans
they'll
work
as
quickly
as
they
possibly
can
to
get
those
in
front
of
the
architecture
committee,
and
then
this
body
and
ultimately
the
city
council,
to
get
a
final
pdd
approved.
Our
goal
is
to
break
ground
on
this
before
the
end
of
the
year,
if
possible-
and
that's
all
subject
to.
Obviously
the
various
commission's
review
and
input.
C
C
B
B
G
B
C
J
C
J
My
concern
involves
the
new
marijuana
project.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that,
for
the
record
that
the
developer
years,
too,
all
the
requirements-
I
know
this
is
about
planning-
I
might
be
talking
about
engineering,
but
it's
a
forum
feel
free
to
stop
me.
If
we
must
in
the
past
exhibit
the
developer
has
showed
the
freehold
properties
has
showed
a
complete
indifference
to
mitigating
any
sand
or
dust
or
dirt
that
is
built.
J
These
projects
are
probably
going
to
commence
at
the
most
at
the
most
windy
part
of
our
season
and
in
the
past,
their
indifference
to
adhering
to
any
simple
way
of
dealing
with
it.
They
don't
use
green
glue,
they're
just
completely
out
of
compliance
and
in
particular
back
a
couple
of
years
ago,
three
years
ago,
when
they
installed
an
electrical
vault,
a
couple
of
them.
J
J
The
windy
season
of
the
year
I
just
asked
they
adhere
to
compliance
with
the
engineering
guidelines,
sit
down
in
2012,
where
they
have
to
file
adequately
with
the
city
for
permission
because
of
the
property
and
its
location,
so
that
sand
and
dust
and
dirt
is
mitigated.
I
got
over
at
least
an
eighth
of
an
inch
of
sand
every
day
for
45
consecutive.
C
F
Of
course,
I
I
I
believe
the
commission
understands
that
we
are
compl.
We
are
required
to
be
compliant
and
file
a
swift's
plan
with
the
city
and
we
have
oversight
by
governmental
bodies
with
respect
to
dust
control.
It
is
the
case
that
it's
a
very
windy
area
and
I
would
argue
that
a
goodly
amount
of
the
the
low
sand
actually
comes
from
the
wash
that
is
upwind
from
us.
F
But
notwithstanding
that,
suffice
it
to
say
we
have
are
fully
compliant
with
our
dust
control
measures
and
will
continue
to
use
best
practices
to
maintain
the
site
during
construction
and
beyond.
D
Mr
shkapler
good
evening,
the
one
year
term,
would
it
work
better
for
you
if
it
was
two
years
for
a
two-year
extension.
F
Yes,
I
mean
I
that
would
be
ideal,
not
because
we
intend
to
drag
this
out,
but
I
know
that
you
know:
we've
spent
a
fair
bit
of
time
on
this
and
my
hope
is,
and
the
intent
was
that
the
pdd
would
act
as
a
guide
for
the
final
pdd,
but
the
devil's
always
in
the
details.
So
a
part
of
the
this
extension
would
get
us.
F
You
know
towards
the
latter
part
of
this
year,
it's
possible
that
we
would
be
in
process
and
our
builder
would
still
be
negotiating
the
particulars
or
you
know,
making
revisions
to
the
plan
to
conform
with
the
requirements
and
guidelines
of
the
city,
and
so
my
fear
would
be
that
you
know
we
would
have
to
come
back
and
do
this
again.
A
second
year
would
would
prevent
the
need
for
that.
F
Potentially
and
again,
my
hope
is
that
we're
we've
already
have
approved
plans
and
building
permits
and
we're
moving
forward,
but
nonetheless
it
would
be
nice
to
have
that
cushion.
D
And
secondly,
last
question
is:
there
is
definitely
demand
for
condominium
multi-family
and
city
projects
and
therefore
you're
moving
forward
with
this.
There
is
no
chance
that
the
probability
that
you're
going
to
come
back
and
redesign
it
a
single
family
is
very
low.
F
That's
that's
an
accurate
statement,
I
I
never
say
never,
but
we
have
been
fully
compliant
with
the
approved
zoning
and
that
approval
came
back
in
20
2004.
I
believe,
with
the
exception
being
that
the
tweaks
we
made
in
2016
to
some
of
the
setbacks,
the
architectural
standards
and,
obviously
the
open
space
use,
but
our
intention
being
that
the
tweaks
we
made
in
2016
to
some
of
the
setbacks,
the
architectural
standards
and,
obviously
the
open
space
use.
F
B
A
L
Yeah
I
just
like
a
little
bit
of
discussion.
I
thought
that,
as
the
staff
mentioned,
we've
been
trying
to
stick
to
a
one-year
extension.
Why
would
we
make
the
change
now
for
this
particular
applicant?
L
So
I'd
like
to
hear
from
you
know
my
my
colleagues
why
we
would
make
an
exception
for
this
applicant
when
we
really
have
it
for
many
others
in
the
last
year
or
two.
D
The
deal
making
the
precise
the
final
pdd
is
almost
projects
the
middle
and
it
takes
time
for
the
design
team
to
put
the
plans
together
so
rather
than
having
him
come
back
in
august
and
asking
for
another
extension,
I
believe
that
having
the
twitter
extension
gives
me
the
time
and
gives
him
the
proper
allowance
for
the
applicant
to
come
back
with
the
precise
developed
design
plans.
L
A
A
A
B
K
Well,
I
was
in
response
to
commissioner
mercy
a
couple
of
reasons.
One
is,
as
commissioner
said,
this
applicant
has
demonstrated
by
deed
his
credibility
when
he
says
things
and-
and
that
goes
a
long
way
for
me-
to
give
him
a
little
bit
more
leeway.
K
The
other
thing
is
that
if
you
go
by
his
his
time
frame,
if,
if
there's
a
due
diligence
period
of
two
months-
and
they
haven't
even
gotten
to
that
point,
yet
that
brings
you
to
sometime
in
march
or
april
before
they
execute
a
contract
and
he's
probably
not
going
to
start
any
drawings
before
that.
And
then
you
go
there's
a
three-step
approval
process.
He
has
to
get
final,
pd,
aac
final
pd
planning,
commission
and
final
pd
council,
and
then
he
can
start
his
construction
document.
K
I
don't
know
when
the
clock
starts:
tick
stops
ticking,
I
think
he's
entitled
when
he
gets
building
permits
and
and
and
we
all
know
on
a
project
this
size-
a
building
permit-
can
take
quite
a
long
time.
So
I
and
the
other
reason
is
there's
certain
projects
where
we
said
no
one
year
and
they're
they're,
usually
more
public
spaces,
they're,
usually
spaces
that
there's
some
risk
to
the
city
and
it
not
being
completed
and
and
and
being
that.
This
is
part
of
a
very
large
development.
That's
mainly
not
developed.
K
At
this
point,
I
don't
see
that
risk
if
this
doesn't
get
developed
for
a
while.
I
don't
see
a
big
risk
to
the
city
and
it's
not
getting
developed.
Well,
I'm
not
saying
that
will
happen,
but
in
the
event
that
this
does
drag
on
this,
this
particular
site
does
not
trouble
me
as
much
as,
for
instance,
a
site
adjacent
to
the
regal,
theater
and
and
and
there's
a
with
that
guy.
There
was
just
no
credibility
with
this.
There
just
seems
to
be
a
boatload
of
credibility
and
and
I'm
willing
to
take
a
risk
on
that.
M
M
Lewin,
just
you
know,
out
of
the
spirit
of
camaraderie
with
commissioner
murutsy,
I
I
heard
your
question
that
I
I
think
that
the
other
commissioners
are
making
very
good
points.
The
developers
invested
heavily
in
the
project
they're
moving
things
along.
It
is
interior,
and
I
also
think
that
covid
slows
things
down,
and
I
think
that
this
is
a
time
to
be
a
little
more
lenient,
especially
on
someone
who's
shown
their
dedication.
M
K
M
A
Yes,
one
last
question
of
the
applicant:
if
we
come
out
to
see
your
your
amenity
center,
can
we
get
through
the
gatehouse?
Do
we
just
tell
them
we're
commissioned.
F
I'll
I'll
make
sure
you're
all
on
the
list,
but
notwithstanding
the
fact
that
the
the
trails
are
open
to
the
public
during
daylight
hours,
but
I'm
sure
you'd
rather
drive
in
so
I
will
make
it
a
point
to
make
sure
that
all
of
the
commissioners
are
on
the
list.
F
Sorry,
yes,
given
kovid
that
we
do
have
some
limitations
and
restrictions
if
you're
looking
to
visit
any
one
of
the
buildings
or
the
builders
for
that
matter.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
time.
A
Okay,
the
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
west
hollywood,
housing
corporation
for
a
planned
development
district
application
to
construct
a
71
unit,
multi-family
residential
development
on
a
1.75
acre
site
located
at
the
southwest
corner
of
west
stevens
road
in
north
palm
canyon,
drive
c1
and
r2
zones
staff
report
and
then
we'll
do
a
report
from
the
subcommittee
that
worked
on.
C
In
the
meantime,
just
so
that
the
commission,
as
you
as
you,
probably
know,
you'll
recall
on
december
17th,
we
continued
this
matter
to
the
hearing
date
this
evening,
at
the
request
of
staff,
to
allow
additional
outreach
for
the
project,
and
we
also
had,
as
you
heard
from
chair,
wehrmacht
a
subgroup
working
to
give
some
guidance
to
the
developer
development
team
and
that
subgroup
consisted
of
chair
wehrmacht.
C
Commissioner
hirschbein
mayor
holstadge,
mayor,
councilman,
coors
and,
and
so
that
was
a
subgroup
that
met
on
december
30th,
to
provide
some
guidance
and
direction
to
the
applicant.
Based
on
comments
that
we
had
received
from
the
public.
C
C
So
we
issued
a
new
report
and
that
was
published
for
your
for
your
review
on
this
past
thursday,
and
so
that
was
part
of
your
packet,
and
that
is
different
from
the
report
you
received
on
december
17th.
C
Okay,
so,
as
I
said,
this
project
is
located
at
the
southwest
corner
of
north
palm
canyon,
drive
and
stevens
road.
It
is
an
undeveloped
site.
There
currently
is
a
an
abandoned
cistern
that
was
previously
used
by
the
city
and
these
properties.
Currently
one
of
them
is
owned
by
the
city
of
palm
springs.
The
other
is
the
is
owned
by
the
successor
agency
to
the
redevelopment
agency
of
the
city
of
palm
springs,
and
so
they
are
publicly
owned
properties.
C
C
C
You
can
see
here
the
the
kind
of
the
layout
of
the
the
first
floor
of
the
project
with
the
majority
or
all
of
the
units
being
one
bedroom
units
on
the
ground
floor,
as
well
as
the
second
floor
and
at
the
corner
of
palm
canyon
and
stevens.
You
have
the
communal
spaces,
which
consist
of
an
office
or
office
spaces.
A
lobby
space,
various
back
of
house
functions,
there's
some
the
laundry
area
in
this
area
and
then
at
the
corner,
they're
proposing
a
communal
kitchen
area,
an
activity
space.
C
This
is
just
a
partial
elevation
of
the
project
along
east
palm
canyon.
To
give
you
a
sense
of
the
heights
proposed
along
palm
canyon,
the
site
is
elevated
above
the
street,
so
you
can
see
here
the
various
heights
for
the
proposed
structure,
ranging
from
probably
23
feet
to
32
and
a
half
feet,
and
those
are,
you
know,
obviously,
due
to
the
varying
roof
heights.
So,
although
the
project
is
not
a
large
mass
along
the
street,
it
does
have
varying
roofs
that
that
provide
additional
view.
Corridors
where
there
is
a
height
of
23.
C
Feet-
and
this
is
the
full
elevation
that
you
would
see
along
palm
canyon
drive,
and
so,
as
I
mentioned,
the
the
right
side
of
this
image
shows
the
various
communal
spaces
at
the
ground
floor.
The
upper
floors
are
all
of
the
proposed
units
and
then
on
the
left
early
or
the
left
side
of
this
image
is
where
additional
units
are
proposed
set
back
from
the
street,
where
you
have
a
paseo,
a
shaded
paseo
space
on
the
westerly
side
of
the
project.
They
they
are
proposing
again
this
two-story
structure.
C
They
are
neutral,
earth,
tone
colors
and
they
are
proposing
various
textures
as
well
as
you
can
see
on
the
the
bottom
at
the
bottom
of
the
image
here
in
the
middle
is
the
textured
wall
that
would
be
integrated
a
lot
at
various
locations
on
the
building
and
provides
you
know
some
additional
texture
and
composition
to
the
building
in
terms
of
the
projects
in
terms
of
staff's
review
of
the
project,
the
site
is
zoned
c1
along
the
easterly
portion
of
the
southerly
property
and
zoned
r2
on
the
westerly
portion
of
that
property.
C
And
the
general
plan
designation
is
mixed,
use
mixed
use
multi-use,
so
under
this
designation
it
it
allows
for
a
density
of
up
to
15
to
10
units
per
acre.
However,
a
total
of
30
20
units
per
acre
is
for
is
permitted,
if
approved
under
a
plant
development
district,
and
that
is
the
request
that
is
being
considered
today.
C
C
In
terms
of
the
development
standards
for
the
zone,
as
I
mentioned,
this
project
is
split
zoned
along
the
front
half
and
with
c1
and
r2
at
the
rear.
The
c1
zone
permits
30
feet:
maximum
height
24
feet
maximum
in
the
r2
zone.
Additionally,
in
our
density
bonus
ordinance,
the
city
is
required
to
permit
11
additional
feet
above
these
heights.
C
The
project
is
in
compliance
with
the
this
additional
allowance.
Under
the
density
bonus
ordinance
with
the
ranging
height
of
23
to
33
feet
approximately
for
its
height,
it
does
comply
with
the
setback
requirements
for
each
respective
zone,
five
feet
along
palm
canyon
and
stevens
10
to
24
feet
on
interior
sides
and
then
25
feet
along
camino
norte.
C
As
as
part
of
the
plan
development
district
ordinance,
we
are
required
to
look
at
what
public
benefits
are
being
provided
and,
as
we've
noted
here
in
your
staff
report,
they're
the
project
being
a
new,
affordable
housing
project
with
a
total
of
71
units
for
affordable
housing,
obviously,
as
a
public
benefit
to
the
community.
C
As
I
mentioned
at
the
beginning
of
the
presentation,
there
was
a
subgroup
that
worked
and
that
worked
with
the
developer,
consisting
of
mayor
holsteige,
council,
member
coors,
chair
wermuch
and
commissioner
hershbein,
and
they
met
on
december
30th
with
the
applicant
and
provided
some
recommendations.
C
For
holding
another
neighborhood
meeting,
based
on
the
amount
of
feedback
that
the
city
was
getting
also
as
it
relates
to
providing
perhaps
an
alternative
access
point
on
the
project.
Due
to
the
comments
that
we
were
receiving,
as
well
as
the
initial
comment
about
or
a
comment
that
was
about
providing
commercial
space
at
the
corner,
as
that
was
something
that
we
had
thought
was
going
to
be
part
of
the
project.
So
that
was
something
that
we
had
asked
or
requested
that
they
look
into
as
a
part
of
an
optional
enhancement
to
the
project.
C
And
so,
based
on
that
feedback,
the
appkin
had
provided
a
alternative
site
plan
which
you
see
here
on
the
screen,
and
what
this
really
shows
here
is
that
there's
an
additional
access
point
that
could
be
provided
to
palm
canyon
in
the
event
that
there
was
no
access
to
camino
norte,
and
so,
as
you
can
see
here,
the
that
this
would
be
what
that
would
look
like
with
the
project
staff
has
listed
a
number
of
reasons
why
we
are
not
in
support
of
this
alternative
site
plan,
namely
the
amount
of
traffic
generated
by
the
project,
doesn't
warrant
a
third
access
point
and
we've
provided-
or
we
have
analysis
in
your
report
as
it
relates
to
the
traffic
impacts
and
I'll
speak
about
those
in
just
a
moment.
C
But
generally,
we
just
did
not
feel
that
this
was
a
safe
access
point
for
the
project.
There
is
an
existing
bus,
stop.
That
is
a
location
where
there's
a
transfer
station
for
sunline
and
those
buses.
Wait
at
that
location
for
longer
periods
of
time
than
normal
bus
stops
locations
throughout
the
city.
So
that
being
a
a
concern,
because
it
it
does
create
site
visibility,
issues
for
vehicles
exiting
this
point
and
not
being
able
to
see
oncoming
traffic
going
southbound
on
palm
canyon.
C
That
was
one
concern
that
we
had
initially
another.
You
know
there's
a
number
of
other
concerns
that
we
list
in
your
report
as
it
relates
to.
Generally
you
know,
traffic
or
urban
planning
and
urban
experience
of
a
project
and
limited
vehicular
access
to
major
thoroughfares
and
creating
main
access
points
off
of
adjacent
streets
that
connect
to
a
major
thoroughfare.
So,
as
I
said,
staff
has
listed
a
number
of
reasons
why
we
are
not
in
support
of
this
alternate
proposal.
C
So
speaking
to
traffic
and
site
access,
this
project,
as
proposed,
is
anticipated
to
have
263
total
trips
per
day
with
peak
hours
in
the
morning
being
14
at
the
highest
level
and
and
and
the
evening
18
peak
hours
would
be
the
the
most
that
would
occur
during
the
busiest
times
of
the
day.
C
In
the
event
that
the
project
did
include
the
flexible
use
space.
The
total
anticipated
project
trips
would
be
346
trips
for
the
project
and
that's,
as
I
mentioned.
If
the.
If
the
planning,
commission
and
council
directed
the
corner
space
on
palm
canyon,
it's
and
stephen's
be
a
flexible
use.
Public
space
such
as
a
restaurant,
a
cafe
a
you,
know,
a
gift
shop
or
any
other
type
of
retail,
that's
permitted
in
the
underlying
c1
zone,
so
the
in
the
event.
C
What
and
those
numbers
through
the
346
total
trips
per
day
is
the.
What
we
would
say
is
the
highest
or
most
intense
potential
for
that
space
if
it
were
a
cafe
and
just
so
for
comparison,
what
you
know
for
for
the
benefit
of
the
commission
and
the
public
there's
a
total
of
553
500.
C
Excuse
me
583,
total
trips
per
day
for
the
draftsman
restaurant
and
that's
based
on
the
international
transportation
engineers
manual
and
the
arrival
hotel
has
about
1722
trips
per
day,
so
the
anticipated
project
trips
for
this
development
are
far
below
these.
These.
H
C
So
staff's
recommendation
tonight
is
that
you
are
recommending
city
council
approve
the
project
and
that
would
be
the
original
proposed
site
plan,
not
the
proposed
alternative
access,
alternative
plan
with
access
from
palm
canyon
and
restrict
vehicular
access
on
camino
norte
emergency
vehicles.
Only.
C
C
A
Before
we
go
into
staff
questions,
I
wanted
to
just
go
into
the
deliberations
of
the
subcommittee
and
what
we
came
up
with
we
had
asked,
or
I
had
asked
for
an
alternate
plan
to
respond
to
the
public's
request
to
see
if
access
could
come
off
of
palm
canyon.
In
looking
at
the
plan,
the
recommendation
of
both
staff
and
the
project
architect
was
that
we
not
use
that,
and
the
subcommittee
agreed
with
that.
A
As
an
alternate,
we
proposed
limiting
the
access
to
the
project
from
stevens,
with
the
gate
at
via
norte
being
restricted
just
to
fire
access
with
an
opticam
strobe
system
so
that
the
fire
department
could
get
in
and
out
of
it.
A
The
the
main
reason
with
the
the
traffic
count
in
the
project,
although
it
was
listed
at
260
trips
per
day.
The
estimation
is
that
it
will
be
half
of
that
because
of
the
use
of
the
project,
so
that
the
the
estimated
trips
in
and
out
will
be
very
low.
They
should
not
be
a
burden
on
stevens
road.
A
The
other
issue
that
was
raised
at
our
study
session
was
parking.
The
the
project
will
be
meeting
the
the
parking
requirements
that
the
city
has.
It
will
be
over
parked
by
half
by
50
percent
or
100
for
the
use
in
the
use
that
we're
anticipating
the
applicant
took
a
portion
of
the
project
where
they
would
maintain
the
71
parking
spaces
they
proposed.
A
I
believe
it
was
12
spaces
toward
the
rear
that
will
have
a
different
hardscape
treatment
will
be
used
as
a
as
a
public
area,
a
recreation
area,
but
could
be
converted
into
parking
if
a
parking
demand
actually
developed
at
the
property.
So
it
would
they
both
meet
and
I've
asked
staff
to
prepare
a
condition
that
would
mirror
that
requirement.
A
We
did
look
at
some
public
amenities
in
the
front
of
the
project
and
added
to
the
public
benefits
was
a
sort
of
sitting
area
for
the
public,
where
there
would
be
an
easement
for
public
use
and
an
area
where
people
could
sit
with
their
dogs,
possibly
a
dog
drinking
fountain
and
I've
asked
staff
to
prepare
a
condition
in
in
that
regard.
The
the
other
thing
is
the
record:
the
request
for
the
public
space,
the
applicants
going
for
financing.
A
At
this
point
in
time,
they
can't
finance
a
commercial
component
with
affordable
housing
funds
and
therefore
we
would,
in
with
the
council,
we
didn't,
require,
don't
propose
requiring
a
commercial
component
but
allow
flexibility
with
a
requirement
that
would
allow
them
to
have
a
commercial
component
should
that
become
viable
in
the
future,
and
they
can
finance
that
and
again,
staff
was
asked
to
prepare
a
condition.
I
don't
think
they're
in
our
initial
reports,
but
we
should
be
getting
those
from
staff.
So
those
were
the
issues
that
came
up
around
the
project.
A
Those
were
the
resolutions
we
looked
at
in
the
subcommittee
and
those
were
the
resolutions
that
were
presented
to
the
public
at
the
public
meeting
that
they
held
after
our
meeting.
Commissioner
hirschbein,
does
that
summarize
it
and
was
there
anything
else?
You
would
add.
K
No,
that
that
does
a
a
summary,
a
good
summary
of
it.
I
I
think
from
perspective
my
perspective.
They
responded
to
community
concerns
about
access
on
camino
norte
and
they
and
the
parking
I
think,
was
addressed
in
the
staff
report.
K
The
number
and
and
also
the
applicants,
have
many
many
senior
affordable
housing
projects
in
southern
california
and
their
experience
dick
suggests
that
the
parking
is
not
going
to
be
an
issue.
These
a
lot
of
their
residents
of
these
projects,
don't
have
cars,
many
of
them
do
not
and
the
parking
spaces
that
they
they
are
required
to
provide
and
these
other
projects
have
gone
unused.
So
I
think
turning
some
of
them
into
this
decorative
kind
of
zone
that
can
be
used.
You
know
by
the
residents
rather
than
parking.
K
It
is
a
good
solution
and
I
mean,
like
kathy
said
in
the
event
that
it's
needed
they
they
can
convert
to
parking,
but
I
yeah
they
haven't
seen
the
need
for
that
and
as
far
as
the
commercial
space
you
know
it
was
it
was.
It
was
determined
that
it
would
be
really
difficult
for
them
to
finance
that,
through
these
standard
ways
that
affordable
housing
gets
financed,
and
I
think
requiring
that
would
add
a
burden
to
the
project
that
might
prohibit
it
from
being.
A
Bill
so
other
questions
for
staff
or
the
subcommittee
from
the
members
of
there
were
a
few
questions
that
commissioner
song
had
asked
that
were
architectural
in
nature.
A
B
N
Good
evening,
everyone,
my
name,
is
jesse
flansky
good
evening
palm
springs.
Commissioners
city
staff,
community
members-
my
name
is
jesse
slansky,
I'm
the
president
and
ceo
of
west
hollywood
community
housing
corporation.
N
We
are
thrilled
to
be
here
tonight
to
present
agave
palm
canyon.
This
is
a
100,
affordable,
rental
apartment
community
exclusively
for
seniors
age,
62
and
up
many
of
you
already
know
us
this
evening,
I'm
going
to
briefly
reintroduce
ourselves:
matt
mason,
our
director
of
real
estate
development,
will
reintroduce
the
project
and
will
carson
our
architect
from
64
north
we'll
go
into
a
little
more
detail
on
the
design
and
then
we'll
take
some
questions.
N
N
N
N
We
focus
on
affluent
communities
with
vocal
and
active
constituencies.
Today
we
house
over
950
residents
in
597
units
in
18
buildings
in
three
cities.
We
have
an
additional
seven
projects
in
development.
Our
housing
is
designed
for
independent
living.
However,
housing
alone
is
not
always
enough.
Sometimes
vulnerable
individuals
need
a
little
help
to
live
on
their
own.
What
sets
us
apart
is
our
resident
services
department.
We
have
a
team
of
10
full-time
professionals
who
provide
supportive
services
to
our
residents.
N
Additionally,
we
have
community
collaborators,
such
as
our
partner
desert
aids
project,
who
help
provide
additional
support.
This
project,
agave
palm
canyon,
will
have
one
full-time
resident
services
coordinated
staffed
by
us
one
part-time
support
case
manager
staffed
by
desert
aids
project
and
one
full-time
case
manager
staffed
by
riverside
university
health
system.
O
Good
evening
I'm
matt
mason
the
director
of
real
estate
development
for
west
hollywood,
the
housing
corporation.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
our
buildings
are
not
your
typical,
affordable
housing
buildings.
We've
got
a
lot
of
effort
into
making
sure
that
we
achieve
a
high
level
of
design.
As
jessie
mentioned,
we
build
in
a
number
of
bathroom
communities
and
we
use
subjects
achieve
a
high
level
of
design
and
are
well
accepted.
D
O
Okay,
so
our
buildings
are
are
generally,
we
generally
see
lead.
Gold
and
galvey
at
palm
canyon
will
also
aim
for
the
full
certification.
O
O
Here
is
an
overview
of
the
population.
So,
as
jesse
mentioned,
all
of
the
units
will
be
reserved
for
seniors
for
adults
aged
62
and
older,
so
everyone
who
lives
here
for
the
building
managers
will
be
a
senior
sixty
two
and
older.
All
the
units
are
one
bedrooms,
and
we
expect
that,
based
on
our
past
senior
buildings,
a
vast
majority
about
80
to
85
of
those
units
will
be
occupied
by
one
senior
low-income
senior
residents
so
of
the
71
units.
O
44
will
be
reserved
for
low
income
seniors,
making
between
20
and
80
percent
of
the
area.
Median
income,
which
is
about
10
000
to
40
000
annual
income
in
riverside
county
25
units,
will
be
reserved
for
as
permanent
for
the
pricing
for
the
formerly
homeless,
and
then
two
units
will
be
set
aside
as
building
manager,
units
for
full-time
on-site
building
managers,
day
manager
and
ignite
member.
O
O
The
whdhc
and
desert
age
project
service
providers
will
provide
services
for
all
of
the
units,
and
the
case
manager
from
riverside
university
health
system
will
provide
services
specific
to
25
moments
of
housing
units
just
to
provide
that
extra
level
of
extra
level
of
services
that
may
be
required
for
adults,
transitioning.
The
house.
O
Dave
palm
canyon
will
be
an
amenity-rich
environment.
There
will
be
a
community
room
with
a
demonstration
kitchen,
computer
room,
lending
library,
a
fitness
room
and
a
laundry
room
offices
and
resident
amenities
will
be
located
along
palm
canyon.
Drive
will
be
designed
to
activate
homecoming
drive
and
to
allow
passive
interaction
between
residents
and
activity.
Alums
security
for
residents
will
be
provided
through
the
two
building
managers.
The
building
manager
office
would
be
within
this
goal,
so
we
will
have
eyes
directly
on
the
street
and
on
the
our
building,
both
in
the
day.
O
Every
time
building
will
also
feature
a
security,
camera
system,
security
cameras,
the
campus
and
an
outside
sturdy
company
monitoring
those
security
cameras.
Years
to
date,
our
community
engagement
team
has
conducted
and
participated
more
than
25
public
and
small
group
meetings
which
have
included
inputs
from
the
surrounding,
including
our
most
direct
neighbors
in
the
condominium
complex
called
the
u.s,
almost
working
jesus
project,
which
has
endorsed
the
project.
O
So
what's
changed
since
last
time.
I
think
mr
warmack
has
has
summarized
this
already
fairly
comprehensively:
we've
added
a
flexible
use
space
on
the
corner,
600
square
feet
of
space
that
could
be
used
in
the
future.
O
If
funding
in
the
market
is
amenable
to
adding
a
commercial
component
to
perhaps
a
small
neighborhood
market,
or
for
now,
we
would
like
to
reserve
the
space
as
a
potentially
publicly
facing
flexible
space
that
could
be
used
in
a
way
that
is
related
to
the
housing
above,
but
we
have
that
space
set
aside
at
this
point.
In
addition,
there
is
the
the
amenities
that
have
been
added
to
the
public
paseo
and
plan
completed
public,
stop
and
we've
closed.
O
G
Detail
so,
as
you
know,
palm
springs
has
such
an
important
and
exceptional
architectural
heritage,
and
our
goal
is
to
create
a
project
that
fills
this
void
in
your
city
fabric
and
is
a
worthy
extension
to
this
legacy
that
you
all
can
be
proud
of.
G
As
can
we
next
slide
seen
along
palm
canyon,
and
the
design
has
developed
with
active
programs
arrayed
along
the
street
to
activate
the
frontage
sheltered
by
this
broad
overhanging
canopy,
with
shade
for
public
gatherings,
floor-to-ceiling
glazing
connecting
inside
and
out
and
broad
overhanging
roofs
that
are
consistent
with
the
modernist
design.
Language
of
much
of
palm
springs
next
slide.
G
G
The
material
palette,
as
david
noted,
is
contemporary
and
warm
desert.
Huge
includes
cedar,
custom,
masonry,
aluminum
and
plaster
next
slide
on
the
site
plan,
as
noted
by
others,
the
parking
is
located
on
the
western
side
of
the
project.
We're
set
back
80
feet
or
75
feet
from
our
neighbors
at
pompeii
los.
G
They
also
have
a
privacy
wall
and
planted
hedge,
ensuring
there
are
no
view
lines
from
the
units
on
this
project
to
their
units
and
we've
met
with
them
in
their
support
of
the
project.
We've
also
made
a
number
of
changes
in
response
to
community
feedback,
which
have
also
been
covered
by
others,
including
the
paseo,
the
puppy
pit
stop
and
the
flexible
use
space.
G
We've
also
added
a
potential
monument
sign
at
the
corner
and,
as
noted,
we've
heard
a
number
of
community
concerns
regarding
traffic,
some
of
which
have
slightly
erroneous
interpretations
of
the
project's
traffic
traffic
study,
which
we
can
address.
G
We
heard
the
concerns
about
traffic
onto
camino
norte
and
closed
that
entry,
with
the
gates,
the
we
evaluated
a
secondary
entrance
onto
palm
canyon,
but
that
wasn't
recommended
and,
as
noted,
we
expect
about
80
people
living
on
site
with
about
40
cars.
G
So
that's
about
130
trips
a
day
or
about
seven
in
and
out
an
hour
which
is
about
a
quarter
of
what
the
draftsman
has,
and
I
guess
about
a
tenth
of
what
orion
has
and
we
heard
of
the
concerns
about
over
parking
and
have
designed
this
kind
of
flexible
plaza
space
and
the
kind
of
lower
right
of
the
project
matt's
pointing
at
which
can
be
used
as
an
amenity
but
also
used
for
overflow
parking.
So
we're
confident
there'll
be
zero
overflow
parking
in
the
community
next
slide.
G
Great,
I
have
two
sentences
on
the
site
plan.
You
can
see
the
numerous
gardens
which
are
integrated
around
the
building,
creating
connections
between
exterior
spaces
and
individual
units
next
slide
and
the
planting
palette
for
the
project
is
lush
with
expressive
form
and
color,
including
palms,
palo,
verdes
cocktail,
cacti,
agave
and
additional
decorative
plantings
happy
to
take
questions.
A
J
C
Hi,
dr
silver,
this
is
the
city
of
palm
springs.
Planning.
Commission,
we're
you're,
live
with
the
planning
commission,
and
you
have
three
minutes
to
provide
public
testimony
on
the
agave
project.
J
J
Great
thank
you.
I
live
on
in
las
vegas
villas,
on
camino
norte
and
as
and
along
with
a
number
of
other
people
who
have
lived
there
for
several
years.
Have
some
concerns.
In
fact,
first
of
all,
the
agave
development
is
beautiful.
The
people
who
are
making
it
are
to
be
congratulated
on
that
structure
and
I'm
sure
the
planning
commission
has
done
a
great
deal
of
work
in
trying
to
accommodate
the
community.
But
these
are
the
concerns
that
I
still
have.
J
The
emergency
gate
on
camino
norte
is
not
is,
is
a
is
a
terrific
idea,
but
there's
a
pedestrian
gate
there
as
well.
There's
no
problem
with
pedestrians
going
in
there.
J
That's
south
of
this
development
between
burrito
norte
and
the
development
and
we're
concerned
that
cars
will
park
there
narrowing
that
road,
and
that
makes
it
very
and
since
there's
no
sidewalk
when
we
walk
dogs
and
we
walk
by
there,
you
have
to
walk
on
a
narrow
road
and
under
low
light
conditions.
I
think
it's
the
safety
hazard
and
that's
my
principal
point.
It's
a
safety
hazard
there
and
I
think
that.
But
for
that
reason
that
pedestrian
entrance
should
not
be
there
until
such
improvement
occurs
that
you
can
use.
J
J
It
takes
away
parking
spaces
on
the
street,
for
our
service
people
and
for
our
guests,
and
the
final
thing
that
I
would
say
is
that,
based
on
living
in
that
area
for
a
long
time,
it's
not
easy
to
turn
as
you,
you
folks
know,
turn
left
onto
west
stevens
from
north
palm
canyon,
and
the
reason
is,
as
the
reason
is,
because
cars
pile
up
at
vista,
chino
and
palm
canyon,
they
travel
south
at
40
miles
an
hour.
J
B
P
C
P
P
If
granted,
the
density,
bonus,
variance,
will
add
18
additional
units
bringing
the
total
to
71
with
up
to
three
excuse
me,
with
up
to
three
full-time
residents
allowable
per
unit,
there
will
be
anywhere
from
71
to
213
persons
living
there.
This
does
not
include
visiting
staff
guests
and
service
workers.
P
The
camino
norte
emergency
access
should
remain
in
perpetuity
and
emergency
vehicle
access
and
without
the
proposed
staff
report,
added
condition
of
an
allowance
for
future
consideration
if
approved.
Unfortunately,
this
allowance
will
give
the
city
the
right
to
potentially
open
the
camino
norte
emerge
emergency
access
as
a
public
access
at
a
future
date.
P
We
are
also
opposed
to
the
camino
norte
pedestrian
access,
as
the
impact
it
will
have
and
the
impact
it
will
have
on
our
neighborhood,
with
only
71
dedicated
parking
spaces
and
an
estimated
of
daily
trips
at
263
generated
by
this
process
project.
The
access
will
be
a
conduit
for
spillover
parking
and
considerable
traffic
generated
within
our
historical
old,
los
palmas,
neighborhood.
P
P
C
C
I
All
right,
thank
you.
So
much.
I
wasn't
going
to
talk
about
traffic,
but
it
sounds
like
that's
the
issue,
but
I
think
it
might
be
disguised
and
nimbyism,
so
I'm
greg
rodriguez,
I
actually
am
a
resident
of
palm
springs.
I
actually
live
about
only
about
a
half
a
mile
away
from
the
project.
I
I
also
am
the
government
affairs
and
public
policy
advisor
for
supervisor
manuel
perez
for
the
riverside
county,
and
then
I
also
participate
in
the
lift
to
rise
and
the
county
connect
capital
campaign
on
affordable
housing,
which
is
looking
to
build
10
000
units
of
affordable
housing
over
the
next
10
years.
So
I'm
calling
in
support
of
the
agave
project.
I
Permanent
supportive
housing
units,
which
some
people
tend
to
think
that
we're
pulling
people
immediately
off
the
street
and
putting
them
into
units
is
not
the
case.
What
permanent,
supportive
housing
units
do
is
provide
permanent
housing
for
individuals
that
we
have
put
through
transitional
programs
through
shelter.
Programs
have
provided
substance,
use
treatment
as
well
as
behavioral
health
treatment
and
providing
a
permanent
home
as
one
who
deals
with
housing
homelessness
on
a
daily
basis
within
the
county,
our
need
for
senior
housing
is
exponential
and
especially
in
the
city
of
palm
springs.
I
One
of
the
other
concerns
that
was
brought
up
is
about
the
proximity
to
grocery
stores
and
amenities,
and
I
will
tell
you
that
this
project
is
closer
than
almost
any
other
project
we
have
in
the
county.
We
have
numerous
permanent,
supportive
housing
and
section
8
housing
units
dispersed
throughout
not
only
the
city
of
palm
springs,
but
the
county
that
we
are
not
worried
about
access
to
amend
these
two
one
of
the
other
issues
that
was
brought
up
is
about
the
location
and
that's
complete
nimbyism,
and
why
does
it
have
to
be
here?
I
Why
can't
it
be
somewhere
else?
We
need
to
be
able
to
make
sure
that
we
are
housing,
individuals
throughout
our
city,
throughout
every
district,
within
the
city
and
throughout
every
location.
I
We
already
have
units
that
the
county
has
had
for
years
of
not
only
section
8
housing
but
senior
housing
that
are
dispersed
throughout
communities
in
the
county,
that
abut
or
communities
rich
communities,
and
there
has
been
no
issues
that
we
have
dealt
with
on
that.
I
just
really
want
to
emphasize
that
the
agave
project
and
the
developers
have
gone
over
and
above
what
they
really
need
to
do
in
regards
to
the
ability
on
sb
35
to
actually
not
have
to
go
through
these
processes
and
their
ability
and
willingness
to
engage
community
involvement.
I
This
is
an
incredible
project,
the
not
only
the
design
but
the
integrated
services.
That's
going
to
do
with
the
partnership
with
desert
aids
project,
as
well
as
riverside
county
is,
is
really
truly
the
example
of
where
affordable
housing
developments
need
to
go,
and
so
I
would
strongly
encourage
the
planning
committee
to
recommend
the
city
council
endorse
this
project.
Thank.
I
C
C
R
Okay,
starting
now
you
may
begin.
Okay.
Thank
you.
I
had
trouble
getting
you
on
my
computer,
and
so
I
almost
forgot
that
I
was
to
do
this.
I
want
to
be
very
supportive
of
the
project.
I
many
of
you
know.
I
spent
probably
30
years
of
my
career
in
the
government,
assisted
housing
field,
helping
write
the
legislation
that
created
hud
and
being
housing
man
of
the
year,
but
that
was
40
years
ago.
R
R
R
I
would
do
something
else,
but
the
overall
aspect
of
the
project
I
am
supportive
of-
and
I
wish
it
like-
oh
there's-
also
been
a
kind
of
a
nimby
issue,
whether
it's
the
wrong
neighborhood
for
that
kind
of
a
project.
R
The
fact
is
these
are:
these
will
be
decent
people
with
modest
incomes
who
are
paying
by
the
lease
annual
leases
and
they
and
the
location
by
the
bus
stop
is
about
as
good
as
you
can
possibly
get
for
low-income
seniors,
so
I
am
in
favor
of
it.
I
urge
your
approval
as
we
go
forward.
R
P
C
Q
Thank
you.
My
name
is
nikki
pascal,
I'm
a
neighbor
at
the
adjacent
pompei
de
los
palmas
development
to
the
immediate
west
of
this
proposed
agave
development.
I
am
enthusiastically
supportive
of
the
proposal.
I
think
it's
very
appropriate
to
the
site.
The
need
for
this
kind
of
housing
is
evident,
particularly
with
research
showing
older
adults
with
low
incomes
are
among
the
highest
risk
of
homelessness.
Q
That
was
even
before
the
pandemic
and,
as
the
previous
speech
mentioned,
being
alongside
palm
canyon,
the
public
transit
opportunities
obviously
make
this
a
great
place.
To
cite
seniors,
the
design
is
very
attractive.
The
lot
we
have
there
now
is
a
complete
eyesore
and
it's
clear.
The
developer
has
taken
great
pains
to
deliver
a
project
that
is
iconic
in
design.
Reflective
of
the
palm
springs,
architectural
history,
that's
respective
of
our
community
next
door.
Q
That
is,
as
you
know,
a
historic
test,
historic
recognition,
and
that
is
also
very
respectful
of
the
mountain
views
and
the
adjacent
neighborhood.
Q
I
also
wanted
to
mention
that
the
developer
has
taken
considerable
time
to
meet
with
the
community,
to
hold
numerous
public
information
sessions
and
to
really
work
with
our
homeowners
association,
specifically
to
address
the
concerns
that
the
neighbors
on
that
side
of
the
property
have.
Q
I
don't
live
on
that
side
of
the
property
and
I
won't
speak
for
them,
but
it
does
seem
that
they
have
been
more
than
willing
to
take
suggestions
pertaining
to
the
wall
heights
and
the
landscaping,
and
I
certainly
hope
that's
indicative
of
their
willingness
to
be
a
good
neighbor
for
the
long
run.
I
also
wanted
to
say
I
am
very
enthusiastic
about
some
of
the
proposed
adjustments
that
were
mentioned
tonight
in
terms
of
the
dog
gathering
area
and
also
potential
retail
on
the
corner.
Q
G
Thank
you
I'll
keep
this
short
regarding
the
pedestrian
gate
on
camino
norte
we're
open
to
the
commission's
feedback.
It
would
be
important
to
at
least
have
that
be
an
exit
gate
for
reasons
of
fire
egress
to
the
property.
G
Regarding
some
of
the
concerns
about
the
potential
number
of
total
occupants
in
the
project
it,
I
think
we've
tried
to
be
clear
that
the
expected
occupancy
of
the
project
is
approximately
80
people
with
12
of
the
units
being
couples
and
everybody
else
being
single
sorry,
the
trip
count
as
we
discussed
should
be
about
half
of
what
is
estimated
given
the
estimate
is
based
on
national
standards,
and
the
experience
of
the
developer
is
that
they
have
about
half
the
focus
having
cars
and
that's
going
to
be
far
less
than
any
other
potential
use
on
the
site,
and
we
think
we've
addressed
overflow
parking
in
our
previous
comments.
A
D
Thank
you.
I
had
a
question
and
I
had
a
comment.
The
question
is,
could
you
describe
why,
in
the
low-income
senior
housing
project,
the
usage
of
parking
spaces
is
lower
compared
to
any
other
type
of
housing?
If
you
can
explain
a
little
bit
more
of
why
there
are
less
spaces
being
used,
and
second
is
that
I
give
kudos
to
their
comedian
to
the
applicant
for
being
open
to
the
flexible
use
of
parking
spaces.
D
I
think
that
was
a
great
idea,
so
that
was
the
question
and
now
the
comment.
Thank
you.
N
It
costs
a
lot
of
money
to
own
and
operate
and
maintain
a
vehicle,
and
our
residents
are
low
income.
They
have
income,
but
they
are
low
income
and
that's
a
discretionary
expense
for
a
lot
of
people
and,
like
I
said,
for
that
reason
most
of
our
residents
because
of
those
those
are
the
two
primary
reasons
why
our
seniors
have
fewer
cars.
M
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
subcommittee
that
has
done
incredible
work.
I
really
appreciate
all
the
effort
that
went
into
this.
I
wanted
to
ask
the
applicants
a
couple
of
quick
questions.
M
One
are
you
open
to
adding
a
monument
sign
at
stevens
because
I
think
the
building
is
beautiful
and
I
think
it
deserves
that
kind
of
prestige?
I
think
the
residents
will
enjoy
that
being
able
to
say
I
live
at
the
agave.
You
know,
and
the
other
question
is
really
about
the
access
to
camino
norte.
You
know.
O
I
think
it's
safe
to
say
that
we
are
fine
answering
the
second
question
with
limiting
access
to
stephensville
yeah.
You
feel
like
this
will
provide
enough
meanings
and
access
and
medical
rooms
being
strong
and
be
sufficient
for
our
residents
and
then
for
a
monument
sign.
We
open.
O
I'm
I
think,
I'm
too
far
from
my
microphone.
Did
you
hear
that
I
said
that
we
are
okay
with
the
access
just
coming
from
stevens
and
that
we
feel
that
is
sufficient
monument
sign.
We
would
certainly
be
open
to
that.
One
thing
that
we
did
hear
from
the
community
from
the
old
los
palmas
neighborhood
is
that
they
would
like
to
see
something
like
a
monument
sign
sort
of
announcing
the
gateway
to
that
neighborhood
and
we're
certainly
open
to
that
all
right.
M
M
Okay,
thank
you.
I
had
a
little
hard
time
hearing
you,
but
I
think
you
said,
there's
a
cost
issue
involved
with
that
which
I
fully
understand,
and
maybe
maybe
that's
something
the
city
will
address
after
after
the
building
gets
built.
Madam
chair,
those
are
my
questions.
Thank
you
very
much.
I
yield
my
time.
G
The
original
design
intent
regarding
the
traffic
was
to
make
it
two-way,
but
yesterday
and
great
access
just
that
well
to
make
it
let
people
come
out
right
if
there
was
a
fire
or
somebody
wanted
to
go
for
a
walk,
they
could
do
that
and
to
make
it
two-way
is.
If
someone
wanted
to
go
for
a
walk
in
the
neighborhood,
then
they
could
come
back
into
that
gate.
G
I
think
it
would
be
better
if
it
was
two-way,
because
I
think
it's
fair
to
everybody
to
use
the
streets
to
you
know
walk
around
on.
I
walk
on
the
streets
of
my
dad,
for
instance,
so
I
think
that
would
be
preferable.
K
Well,
I
didn't
have
a
question,
but
I
just
followed
my
commissioner
maurici.
I
people
need
to
get
in
and
out
of
coming
up
on
the
camino
norte
of
that
project
and
if
there's
some
really
legitimate
concern
about
people
parking
on
that
street
and
coming
in,
maybe
the
gate
could
have
a
key.
That's
key.
You
know
that's
compatible
with
the
keys
that
the
residents
use
to
get
into
the
building
or
into
their
units
that
might
solve
it.
But
clearly
there
needs
to
be
people
residents,
walking
in
and
out
of
that
area.
A
A
What's
the
percentage
restrictions
that
you're
that
we
should
include
in
that
condition,
are
you
doing
tax
credits,
and
is
it
are
all
of
the
units
at
60
ami?
What
are
they?
What
are
they
at
so
that
if
we
do
the
55-year
restriction,
we
actually
mirror
what
you're
being
required
to
limit
the
units
to.
A
Let
me
just
repeat
that
25
and
80
12
at
60
and
32
at
30
percent.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Are
there
there
being?
No
other
questions?
The
public
hearing
is
closed.
I
will
come
back
to
you
as
we
craft
a
motion
just
to
make
sure
you're
in
agreement
with
where
we
get
the
matter
is
before
the
commission.
A
A
A
Then
the
david
you've
written
some
conditions
on
the
commercial
space
you
would
you'd
require
the
uses
be
compatible
with
and
help
me
on.
That.
C
Certainly
so,
regarding
the
flexible
use
space
at
the
street
corner,
I
think
our
recommendation
would
be
that
if
it's
financially
viable,
the
developer
is
encouraged
to
provide
a
commercial
space
at
the
corner
of
stevens.
Road
and
palm
canyon
drive
consistent
with
the
uses
permitted
in
the
c1
zone.
A
A
Does
that
work
for
you,
okay
and
you've
added
the
two?
The
modification
of
the
public
benefit
the
affordability
requirements,
and
then
you
have
language
for
the
parking.
C
Yes,
so
david
correct,
what
we
suggest
is
that
the
12
parking
spaces
adjacent
to
the
southerly
building
wing
on
the
south
side
of
the
parking
lot
may
be
used
for
outdoor
usable
space
by
residents.
A
Again,
is
that
acceptable
to
you,
matt,
okay,
and
did
you
have
language
for
the
puppy
pit?
Stop,
I'm
not
sure
we're
calling
it.
I
C
Yeah,
so
our
condition
that
we've
crafted
is
that
the
developers
shall
dedicate
an
easement
allowing
public
access
to
the
front
paseo
for
a
dog
park
or
similar
amenity.
A
A
And
I
think
that
covers
david
was
there
anything
else
that
we
needed
to
cover.
K
M
I
don't
I
don't
want
to
hold
up
this
project
over
a
monument
sign,
so
I
I
think
you've
done
a
terrific
job.
Both
of
you
all
support
your
motion.
A
And
the
other,
the
other
would
be
a
recommendation
for
the
developer
to
consider
in
the
future
an
upgrade
of
the
bus
stop
in
the
front
of
the
building.
I
don't
know
that
we
want
to
require
it
at
this
time,
but
we'd
like
to
ask
you
to
consider
it.
L
Yeah
I
I
fully
agree
that
the
residents
should
have
in
and
out
access
to,
camino
norte,
I
just
to
address
one
of
the
residents
concerns
about.
You
know
the
nature
of
the
property.
The
project
this
organization's
never
apparently
had
problems,
experience
problems
with
their
other,
affordable
housing
communities,
and
I
feel
very
confident
that
this
will
be
a
excellent
community
where
it
will
be
a
good
neighbor
for
everyone.
L
I
I'm
very
happy
that
this
location
was
located.
This
was
found
on
palm
canyon
drive
with
the
bus.
Stop
it
couldn't
be
better.
As
far
as
I'm
concerned,
the
architectural
design
is
excellent,
spectacular
and
very
exciting
for
for
our
city,
so
I
fully
support
it
as
proposed.
D
No,
I
I
agree.
I
mean
I
do
have
a
comment
if
I
can
encourage
the
team
to
have
more
shade
trees
along
palm
canyon,
so
people
who
are
enjoying
your
wonderful
escalade
of
stairs.
You
can
also
enjoy
this
shade.
G
Man,
I
think
they
are
yeah,
absolutely
we'll
we'll
need
to
coordinate
that
with
with
engineering,
because
I
think
our
trellis
will
have
to
coordinate
the
trellis
and
the
lot
line
and
the
street
so
yeah,
but
absolutely.
A
Thank
you.
I
just
want
to
say
it's
a
terrific
project.
I
am
confident
from
my
years
in
working
in
affordable
housing
and
with
supportive
housing
projects
that
you
will
not
have
a
traffic
problem
with
this
project.
I
think
it's
beautiful.
B
Chair
wellwork,
oh
yes,
commissioner,
hirschbein
yeah,
commissioner
lewin
yeah,
commissioner
song,
invite
and
vice
chairman.
B
A
We
have
no
unfinished
business
and
no
new
business.
Do
we
have
any
planning
commissioner
reports
or
comments.
H
Yes,
vice
chair
marouzi,
unfortunately,
we
don't
have
any
specific
information.
Yet,
in
terms
of
when
city
council
will
fill
those
appointments,
I
know
that
they
have
put
together
the
list
of
applicants,
they've
reviewed
them
by
the
subcommittee,
but
we
haven't
received
a
date
yet
of
when
those
interviews
will
occur.
L
Okay
and
then
the
perpetual
question
do
I
even
need
to
say
it.
L
No,
the
what
the
one
next
to
to
rick's.
H
M
Members
of
the
commission
action.
L
But
it's
action
has
been
filed,
as
I
understand
yeah.
We
heard
that
last
time,
so
I'm
just
hoping
that
something
is
going
to
actually
occur
and
there
was
a
timeline
I'd
like
to
know
when,
when
this
is
hope,
hopefully
going
to
happen
because
obviously
it's
the
same
issue
we've
been
dealing
with
for
years.
A
C
The
orchid
tree
project
is
required
to
submit
construction
documents
here
within
the
next
month
or
two,
but
so
at
this
time
no
there
hasn't
really
been
any
new
updates.
We've
worked
with
the
developer
on
some
questions
related
to
that,
but
we're
not
certain
that
they
will
meet
that
next
timeline,
given
the
implications
that
we've
been
hearing
about
kovid.
B
C
A
Great
any
other
questions
for
staff
planning
director's
report.
D
Thank
you
when,
when
it
comes
to
parking
requirements,
according
to
the
zoning
code,
the
requirements
are
based
on
type
of
housing,
so
multi-family
housing
single-family
housing.
D
But
I
do
believe
that
when
it
comes
to
senior
housing
there
there
is
there
is
data,
and
I
hope
that
agave
will
be
one
of
the
palm
string
city
project
data
in
which
it
actually
shows
that
even
designing
it
to
the
minimum
requirements
of
the
zoning
code
is
more
than
sufficient
for
slow
income
senior
housing,
and
I'm
wondering
is
there
any
way
that
we
can
start
collecting
data
so
that
we
can
perhaps
have
a
consideration
because,
as
you
all
know,
if
we
have
less
parking
that
has
been,
then
we
have
more
open
space
opportunities.
D
So
that's
that's.
That's
sort
of
a
comment
and
a
way
of
raising
a
question.
Could
we
do
a
special
consideration
for
senior
housing
projects.
