BUSINESS SESSION
1. APPROVE CONCEPT FOR 40th ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATIVE
ART PIECE
Community Resources Analyst Calderon presented the staff report, which is on file in the Clerk’s Office.
Council discussed the beauty of the art concepts presented, but that they do not fulfill Council’s vision; perhaps a piece created by a collaboration of multiple artists, possibly local artists, using multiple mediums that somehow integrate the City’s history; maybe a mural with a timeline and images; dedicating the exhibit space first to help artists envision a piece that fits; a mural may be appropriate at the Talus site; possibly an art piece from which commemorative items can be made for individual keepsakes; an artistic timeline can include the economic, agricultural and tourist aspects of the City’s history; starting by preselecting the sacred components of La Quinta’s history; confirmed the budget of $15,000 to $20,000; and preference is an outdoor 15 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 4 of 7 OCTOBER 18, 2022
location and a art piece that tells a story and provides education about La Quinta.

Council discussed funding for the project; CalTrans and Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) contributions; the contractor’s responsibilities; bypass road access; keeping traffic flow in the area moving smoothly; the project timeline and estimated completion; background on contractor Ortiz Enterprises, Inc.; project reimbursement schedule; and the staging location on Housing Authority property.

STUDY SESSION
1. DISCUSS IMPLEMENTATION OF CITY FUNDED TURF REBATE
PROGRAM
Management Analyst Mignogna presented the staff report, which is on file in the Clerk’s Office.
Council discussed retroactive turf conversion rebates; focus on commercial landscaping due to watering prohibitions; Coachella Valley Water District’s (CVWD) commendable water management and retention; State’s blanket approach to water conservation, and it being the State’s responsibility to fund rebate programs, not within the City’s jurisdiction; inappropriate for the City’s public funds i.e., funds meant for the good of all residents, to be used for a few hundred residents to convert their landscaping; data needed before policy can be debated; any commercial or residential program should be needbased; City has been converting its landscaping for years before any conservation mandates were in place; need for CVWD’s definition of “recreational uses” where watering is permitted; State’s water infrastructure is broken causing cities to find solutions; the environmental benefits of grass and trees for life in the desert; data on number of businesses and residents being fined; if program covers businesses only, justification is needed; 17 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6 of 7 OCTOBER 18, 2022
including a conversion program in the Highway 111 project; program for commercial businesses unable to meet their landscape maintenance obligations based on city-required landscaping per their development agreements; City refraining from fining businesses for not maintaining landscaping; and if rebates for water conservation are considered, the same for energy conservation may become an issue.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Victoria Llort, Government and Regional Affairs with CVWD – said only the City of Rancho Mirage permitted retroactive rebates; provided the average cost of removal, design, plant products and installation for a 5,000 square foot lot; cost to City of contributing to projects retroactively; CVWD has systems in place to work with cities on any type of program desired; local agencies’ control of local conservation; and CVWD does not fund removal of dead grass or plants.
Council reached a consensus and directed staff to (1) include a survey in the GEM publication and on the City website to gather data on the number of residents/businesses that have already converted to desert landscaping, (2) develop need-based program options, and (3) collect data from CVWD on (a) residents/businesses in the queue for rebates, (b) financial data on penalties and high tier revenues collected from La Quinta properties, and (c) the businesses that have already converted their landscaping.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Alena Callimanis, La Quinta – spoke about issues with artificial turf; for the future, building pools at every house has to be reconsidered; and important to think holistically.
WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS were received from George Batavick, La Quinta, outlining several reasons opposing the implementation of a turf conversion rebate program subsidized by the City, which were distributed to Council, made public, published on the City’s website, and included in the public record of this meeting.
PUBLIC HEARINGS – None.
DEPARTMENTAL REPORTS – All reports are on file in the City Clerk’s Office.

Brown Act (Brown Act) and authorized local agencies to hold public meetings via teleconferencing whenever a state of emergency exists that makes it unsafe to meet in person, Council must reconsider the circumstances of the state of emergency every 30 days and affirm the required findings in order to continue to allow teleconference accessibility for public meetings. On September 28, 2021, Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-035 (Attachment 1) making the required findings under AB 361 and authorizing the City Manager to implement teleconference accessibility to conduct public meetings.
FISCAL IMPACT – None.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
AB 361 was signed into law by the Governor on September 16, 2021, which went into effect immediately as urgency legislation (codified under Government Code § 54953) and waived certain provisions of the Brown Act in order to allow local agencies to continue to meet remotely. Specifically, the bill allows remote teleconference flexibility, but only when there is a state of emergency that makes it unsafe to meet in person.

In addition, AB 361 added specific procedures and clarified the requirements for conducting remote meetings, including the opportunity for the public to provide public comment in real time; the legislative body shall take no actions during disruptions; and the legislative body, by majority vote, shall determine that meeting in-person would present imminent risk to the health or safety of attendees and shall affirm these findings every 30 days, in order to continue to allow teleconference accessibility for conducting public meetings [Government Code § 54953(e)(3)]. AB 361 will sunset on January 1, 2024.
The City has implemented procedures for conducting public meetings to ensure full compliance with AB 361. In addition to the ability to attend public meetings in-person, teleconference accessibility via call-in option or an internet-based service option (via the Zoom Webinars platform) is listed on the published agenda for each meeting as well as on the City’s website. The City monitors attendance via teleconference as well as email correspondence (as published on the agenda) throughout each public meeting and provides access for public comment opportunities in real time both verbally and in writing.
On September 28, 2021, Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-035 making the initially required findings under AB 361 in order to allow the City to continue to offer teleconference accessibility for public meetings after September 30, 2021, to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
As noted above, Council must reconsider the state of emergency due to COVID19 every 30 days and affirm the findings under Resolution No. 2021-035. If approved, AB 361 teleconference procedures and accessibility for conducting public meetings would still be authorized, but notices of City legislative body meetings and agendas will include teleconference instructions and ability to participate by teleconference only when such AB 361 procedures are applied.
Council has affirmed the findings under Resolution No. 2021-035 as follows:

29 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Ordinance No. 604
Amending Title 8 – 2022 California Building Standards Code Adopted: November 15, 2022
WHEREAS, California Health & Safety Code Section 17958.5 permits the City of La Quinta to make such changes and modifications to the California Building Standards Code as are reasonably necessary because of local conditions; and
WHEREAS, the Building Official, the Design and Development Director, and the Riverside County Fire Marshal have recommended that changes and modifications be made to the California Building Standards Code and have advised that certain of said changes are reasonably necessary due to local conditions in the City of La Quinta and have further advised that the remainder of said changes and modifications are of an administrative or procedural nature, or concern themselves with subjects not covered by the California Building Standards Code or are reasonably necessary to safeguard life and property within the City of La Quinta.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of La Quinta finds and determines, pursuant to the requirements of Health & Safety Code Section 17958.7 and 18941.5, that there is a need to adopt the changes or modifications to the California Building Standards Code because of local climatic, topographical, and geological conditions, and does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Changes and modifications to the California Building Standards Code adopted by the City of La Quinta, as recommended by the Building Official, the Design and Development Director, and the Riverside County Fire Marshal are hereby found to be reasonably necessary due to the following general findings of local conditions:
I. Climatic Conditions:
A. La Quinta has an arid desert climate with rainfall averaging just over three inches annually, reducing the moisture content of combustible materials. Frequent periods of drought and low humidity contribute to the probability of a year-round fire season.
B. For nearly four months each year, average daily high temperatures in La Quinta reach 100 degrees or higher, reducing the amount of added heat required to bring combustible materials to their ignition point.
C. La Quinta is subject to hot, dry winds that further dry combustible materials, adding to the intensity of fires and their potential to spread rapidly. During the summer months the dry winds and existing vegetation mix to create a hazardous fuel condition which has resulted in large loss in vegetation and structure fires. Severe 30 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Ordinance No. 604
Amending Title 8 – 2022 California Building Standards Code Adopted: November 15, 2022
“Santa Ana” winds frequently occur and can move a fire quickly throughout areas of the City. Multiple shifting wind patterns throughout the canyon areas add to the difficulty in suppressing fires.
D. High winds cause failures of electrical supply and telephone communication, reducing the reliability of water supply pumps and timely emergency notification.
E. Because of weather patterns, water is a scarce commodity in desert environments, and La Quinta and its neighboring areas draw more water from the underground aquifer than is
replenished naturally. As a result, the area is dependent upon imported water to reduce the effects of overdrafting from the aquifer. Limited storage capacities, high consumption, and droughts reduce the dependability of future water allocations.
Scarcity of water necessitates reducing the need for large volumes of water for firefighting efforts by early suppression through the installation of fire sprinklers in buildings that would otherwise be exempt from sprinkler requirements.
F. Under desert conditions, aluminum wiring is more likely than copper to fail mechanically. Aluminum is more reactive than copper to ambient temperature changes as well normal heating produced from the flow of electricity. It expands and contracts when subjected to heating and cooling, respectively, more so than does copper. Compared to copper, its lower electrical conductivity generates more heat. Aluminum is also more brittle than copper and is more likely to break or crimp. Arcing can occur if a wire breaks or crimps, causing very high temperatures inside concealed building spaces. Aluminum is more likely to corrode (i.e., oxidize) than copper. When excessive corrosion occurs it increases the resistance in the circuit and causes overheating. All of these mechanisms of failure increase the risks of fire associated with the use of aluminum wire.
II. Topographical Conditions:
A. La Quinta is separated from Los Angeles to the west and Phoenix to the east by mountainous terrain, isolating it from media broadcasts of news and emergency information originating from major metropolitan areas.
B. Much of La Quinta, particularly the southern portion, is situated in alluvial fans, surrounded by mountains, isolating it from media 31 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Ordinance No. 604
Amending Title 8 – 2022 California Building Standards Code Adopted: November 15, 2022
broadcasts of news and emergency information originating from within the Coachella Valley.
C. Major roadways, highways, and flood control channels create barriers that increase Fire Department response times.
Undulating terrain incorporated into large country clubs also increases these response times.
D. Streets designed for limited residential traffic and streets designed as storm drains impede emergency vehicle access and evacuation routes.
III. Geological Conditions:
A. La Quinta is situated in near several significant sources capable of producing moderate to large earthquakes, including the San Andreas, Garnet Hill, Banning, Eureka Peak, Burnt Mountain, Pinto Mountain, San Gorgonio Pass, and San Jacinto Faults.
B. Faults near La Quinta are capable of producing earthquakes of Magnitude 7.8 or greater, accompanied by intense shaking, liquefaction, and permanent ground displacement, increasing the risk of property damage, or personal injury or death, caused by the failure of structures, necessitating the permitting and inspection of structures that would otherwise be exempt from permit requirements.
C. Seismic activity within the area occurs yearly. As a result, existing structures and planned new development are subject to serious risks, including fire and collapse, disruption of the water supply for firefighting purposes, and isolation from emergency response as a result of bridge, overpass, and road damage and debris.
D. Severe ground shaking during a seismic event increases the probability that above-ground structures will fail. The inherent danger to the public is increased when power lines are installed above ground because of the danger from falling or fallen power poles and the possibility of contacting live power lines.
IV. Other Conditions:

Amending Title 8 – 2022 California Building Standards Code Adopted: November 15, 2022
A. Additional amendments are found to be either administrative or procedural in nature or concern themselves with subjects not covered in the California Building Standards Code. These changes include provisions making the California Building Standards Code compatible with other codes enforced by the City.
SECTION 2. As recommended by the Building Official, Design and Development Director, and the Riverside County Fire Marshal, the following local amendments to the 2022 California Building Standards Code are hereby found to be reasonably necessary as identified in the table below and referenced to the express findings noted in Section 1, above.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: November 15, 2022
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROPRIATE FUNDING IN THE AMOUNT OF $219,538; AWARD CONTRACT TO DESERT CONCEPTS CONSTRUCTION, INC. FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE BLACKHAWK WAY SCHOOL CROSSING PROJECT NO. 2022-22
RECOMMENDATION
Appropriate funding in the amount of $219,538; award a contract to Desert Concepts Construction, Inc. to construct the Blackhawk Way School Crossing Project No. 2022-22, located on Blackhawk Way between Adams Street and Dune Palms Road; and authorize the City Manager to execute the contract.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• This project includes reconstructing the asphalt concrete crosswalk to bring them to the current code. Improvements include relocating the current rapid flash beacons onto compliant traffic signal poles, replacing the in-roadway warning lights system, and replacing striping near La Quinta High School (Attachment 1).
• This project is not currently part of the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Staff is requesting funding as the project was previously approved to advertise and present bids.
• Staff proposes to minimize impacts to the adjacent schools by completing the improvements during the school break in December 2022. • Desert Concepts Construction, Inc. of Indio, California, submitted the only responsible and responsive bid at $180,538.00 (Attachment 2).
FISCAL IMPACT
This project is not currently included in the CIP, staff requests to appropriate $219,538 of CIP Savings to construct the project. The following is the anticipated project budget:

Inspection/Testing/Survey: $ 5,000
Construction: $ 180,538
Contingency: $ 18,000
Total Budget: $ 219,538
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
It came to staff’s attention that the existing crosswalk pavement and inroadway warning lights are failing and must be replaced. In addition, the existing curb ramps are non-compliant. This project will bring the crosswalk into compliance and replace the asphalt pavement with more durable concrete pavement.
Staff proposes that due to the proximity to La Quinta High School and the need to close the roadway during construction, the improvements should be constructed during the school break in December 2022 to minimize impacts on school traffic.
On October 10, 2022, staff solicited construction bids from qualified contractors. The City received one bid on November 3, 2022. Desert Concepts Construction, Inc. of Indio, California, submitted the only responsible and responsive bid at $180,538.00. Costs are higher than the engineer’s estimate.
This is attributed to only receiving one bid and the strict timeline to perform the work.
Contingent upon the award of the project on November 15, 2022, the following is the project schedule:
Council Considers Project Award November 15, 2022

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: November 15, 2022
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: RECEIVE AND FILE ANNUAL REPORT OF ACTIVE
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file annual report of active development agreements.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The La Quinta Municipal Code requires annual Council review of active development agreements (DA).
Six active development agreements were identified; Centre Pointe, Legacy Villas, Village Park Animal Hospital, Signature at PGA West, Polo Villas and SilverRock Resort development projects (Attachment 1).
FISCAL IMPACT
Centre Pointe, Legacy Villas and Signature at PGA West are required to pay mitigation fees as part of their DA’s. These developments are either noncompliant or partially compliant in remitting the fees owed, see background/analysis below.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The periodic review of DAs by Council is required at least every 12 months from the date the DA was entered into until the expiration of the agreement. Six active DAs have been identified. Of the six, Village Park Animal Hospital, was determined to be in full compliance with no further obligations. The Polo Villas DA was approved in March 2022 to allow for continued short-term rental operations and since it has not been effective for 12 months it is not scheduled to be reviewed until next year. The remaining agreements are summarized in the table below.

October 5, 2021
The Centre Pointe, Legacy Villas and Signature developments are within a Tourist Commercial District, which is intended for and permits land uses that include specialized commercial tourist-oriented uses and resort activity that 92 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
generate transient occupancy tax (TOT) revenue. DAs were executed for these projects for a per unit payment to the City based on performance measures for the collection of TOT revenue.
Centre Pointe
The Centre Pointe development includes approximately 68 acres at the southeast corner of Washington Street and Miles Avenue, and is currently comprised of Homewood Suites, La Quinta Desert Villas (40 residential condominium units), Applebee’s, Eisenhower Health Center, and The Palms at La Quinta senior community. The north portion of Centre Pointe is within a Tourist Commercial District (CT).
In December 2003, a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) with the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency was adopted since this was, at the time, redevelopment property that was sold to the developer. A DA with the City of La Quinta was also adopted. The DA and DDA included provisions for the construction of the mixed-use development, including 132 residential “Casitas,” which under subsequent amendments was increased to 164 units. These units are subject to payment of one-time and annual mitigation fees to the City.
Annual fees may be eliminated if the City receives $546,131 minimum annual TOT generated from the hotel and units, subject to annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase, for three consecutive years (Attachment 2). With the annual CPI increase, the minimum annual TOT threshold is now $670,606. To date, 56 of the proposed 164 units have been constructed; 16 of which were never occupied and 40 are currently used as residential condominiums that restrict short term rental use. These are presently known as La Quinta Desert Villas.
The City has invoiced the La Quinta Desert Villas Homeowners Association (HOA) for these annual mitigation fees since 2016 as the minimum TOT revenue is not being generated. The HOA is the only party being billed since these are the only units that have been issued Certificates of Occupancy. The HOA made payments on 2016-2019 fees; however, it is not current on the payment of their fees for Fiscal Years (FY) 2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22 and was invoiced in August for a total due of $21,355.99.
Additional requirements of the DDA include schedules of performance for certain pieces of the development. Currently, the second restaurant parcel and the remainder of the Casitas development (108 units) have not been constructed per their performance schedules and therefore are not in compliance with the DDA.
A notice of default is being prepared to address these issues. 93 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Legacy Villas
The Legacy Villas development is located west of Eisenhower Drive at Coachella Drive, north of the La Quinta Hotel. This development consists of 280 residential for sale units that if the owner chooses to rent them, may only be rented as short-term rentals. The rentals are required to be registered in a rental pool and report their TOT to the City on a regular basis. The units are also required to pay mitigation fees. This DA allows for a reduction of the fee amount from $1,000 per unit to $500 per unit if a threshold of $500,000 of TOT is collected for three consecutive operating years, subject to annual CPI increase. The DA also allows for the mitigation fees to be eliminated when $1,000,000 of TOT is collected for three consecutive operating years. Neither threshold has been met to date and the units are still responsible for mitigation fees. An invoice was sent in August for a total due of $978,201.48 for remaining fees for FY2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22. Payments totaling $809,807.73 have been recently made, leaving an outstanding balance of $168,393.75. Staff is in contact with the HOA representative to collect the balance. A summary of the DA is provided as Attachment 3.
Signature at PGA West
The Signature development consists of 230 resort residential units that are also subject to TOT mitigation payments. These payments are to be collected at the time of sale, transfer or conveyance of each unit, upon first sale and resales. A summary of this DA is provided as Attachment 4. The Signature community is currently under construction to build out the remaining units and has completed 12 condos with two models and 45 single family units with six models. Fortyfive condos and 55 single family units are currently under construction. Ninetytwo units have been sold to date. The development is paying mitigation fees for the first sale of units, but not all individual owners have paid fees upon resales.
During fiscal year 2021/22, the City collected $230,198 in mitigation fees including $225,248 for first sales and $4,950 for one resale. A letter is being sent to the HOA regarding the collection of resales.
SilverRock
Agreements in place for SilverRock consist of a DA and a Purchase, Sale and Development Agreement (PSDA) which were entered into in November 2014 (Attachment 5). The PSDA was amended in November 2018 to modify the development schedule, clarify requirements for selling planning areas 7, 8 and 9, identify phasing plan for master site infrastructure improvements, update project budgets and define ownership structures for the SilverRock Development Company (SDC). A notice of default was issued in 2021 resulting in an amendment to the PSDA, which modified the development schedule, however, recently three milestone dates have been missed for completing the framing of the luxury hotel guest rooms, starting lifestyle hotel vertical construction and the completion of the permanent golf clubhouse. Staff is in communication with the developer regarding both the financial incentive 94 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda

City of La Quinta
CITY COUNCIL MEETING: November 15, 2022
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: DISCUSS CITYWIDE DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS
RECOMMENDATION
Discuss the La Quinta citywide drainage improvements.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In response to large storm events in 2013 and 2014, the City had a Focused Drainage Study (Study) prepared in 2015.
This study identified several general areas for drainage improvements to meet a 150-year storm event level of protection:
o Calle Tampico/Avenida Bermudas
o Eisenhower Drive/Avenue 50
o Washington Street/Avenue 50
o Eisenhower Drive between Coachella Drive and Vista Laguna o Washington Street/Lake La Quinta Drive
A Citywide Drainage Improvements project was added to the 2015/16 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), and additional funding has subsequently been appropriated each year.
Several drainage improvement projects have been completed within the Study areas and drainage improvement projects are still needed in some areas.
FISCAL IMPACT
In 2016, staff anticipated the necessary drainage improvements would cost up to $17.4M. To date, the overall drainage project budget* has been:
Professional $ 175,489
Design $ 589,807
Land Acquisition $ 5,018,040
Inspection/Testing/Survey $ 130,925
Construction $ 2,645,821
Total $ 8,560,082
STUDY SESSION ITEM NO. 2
107 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
*This budget also includes Dune Palms Road drainage improvements, needed to alleviate on-street water from Westward Ho and the X Park.
The total budget expended to date and estimated budget still needed per project area is as follows:
Project Area Budget Expended

Anticipated
Budget Needed
TOTAL
Washington Street $ 104,851 $ 2,050,000 $ 2,154,851

Desert Club Drive $ 0 $ 1,600,000 $ 1,600,000
Avenida Bermudas $ 0 $ 1,765,000 $ 1,765,000
TOTAL $ 8,304,391 $ 7,615,000 $ 15,919,391
*Land Acquisition: Eisenhower Drive Retention Basin 10.4 Acres – $4,500,000; Dune Palms Road Retention Basins 1.2 Acres – $518,040
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
In response to several large storm events in 2013 and 2014, the City had a Study prepared to identify areas for drainage improvements to meet an increased 150-year storm level protection. Subsequently, a Citywide Drainage Improvements Project was included in the 2015/16 CIP, and funding in the amount of $477K has been added each year. Several drainage improvement projects have been completed, and additional assessments have been prepared for areas identified in the Study, including Eisenhower Drive, Washington Street, and Calle Tampico.
Drainage Improvements Completed (to date):
Eisenhower Drive (between Coachella and Vista Laguna):
Retention basin
Catch basin
Calle Tampico (between Desert Club Drive and Avenida Bermudas):
Drainage improvements completed with La Quinta Village Complete Streets Project
24-inch pipe constructed to hold water during large storm events Washington Street (near Avenue 48):
The following improvements have been analyzed and will be constructed with the proposed Tract No. 35060 development: Direct drainage on east and west side of Washington Street between Avenue 48 and Lake La Quinta to proposed retention basins with Development on west side of Washington Street.
108 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Dune Palms Road:
Construction of three retention basins adjacent to X Park Alleviates on-street water runoff, X Park drainage and future drainage for remaining vacant Housing Authority parcel.
Drainage Improvements Still Needed:
Eisenhower Drive / Avenue 50:
New storm drain from the intersection down Eisenhower to the Evacuation Channel.
Estimated cost: $2,200,000
Washington Street / Avenue 50:
Overflow at back of catch basin to retention basin
Drainage easement needed from the property owner
Estimated cost: $450,000
Washington Street (near Avenue 48):
Drainage Report and Concept is complete.
The connection of the City drainage system to developer-built retention basin
Improvements are to be constructed with the proposed development. Estimated cost:$1,600,000
Avenida Bermudas/Calle Tampico:
Upsizing existing system
Adding a pipe to existing KSL retention basin on Bermudas (Silverhawk) Estimated cost: $1,765,000
Desert Club Drive/Calle Tampico
Connect dry wells/catch basins into Seasons retention basin Estimated cost: $1,600,000
Additional areas to consider:
There is an opportunity to address drainage at Avenue 50 and Washington Street with the Avenue 50 Bridge Project.
These are the most critical areas that need to be addressed, however, there are additional smaller drainage improvements that are needed in other areas.
Some of the proposed drainage improvements still needed may remove the current condition of projects to provide for retention of adjacent street water.
The creation of a developer impact or in lieu fee could be developed to help offset some of the necessary drainage project costs.

City of La Quinta
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
DEPARTMENT REPORT
TO: Madam Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Lori Lorett, Permit Technician
Monika Radeva, City Clerk
DATE: November 15, 2022
SUBJECT: SHORT-TERM VACATION RENTAL PROGRAM – 2022 THIRD QUARTER
OVERVIEW OF CHARACTERISTICS, COMPLIANCE, AND ENFORCEMENT
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The City imposed a moratorium on the issuance of new short-term vacation rental (STVR) permits on August 4, 2020, via Executive Order No. 10, and extended it in succeeding amendments. Section 3.25.055 of the La Quinta Municipal Code (LQMC) established a permanent Permit Ban on the issuance of new STVR permits in residential areas (Permit Ban areas) effective May 20, 2021. Permit-holders may renew existing permits, but permits cannot be transferred.
The issuance of new STVR permits is banned in Permit Ban areas, and no new permits have been issued since August 4, 2020. New permits continue to be issued in a few select “Exempt Areas” zoned for tourist commercial, village commercial, and communities expressly developed to allow STVRs, as depicted on the map in Attachment 1.
The metrics below provide an overview of the STVR program for Quarters 1, 2, and 3 of 2022 (January – September) and a comparison to 2021 calendar year, including characteristics, compliance, and enforcement.
DEPARTMENTAL REPORT ITEM NO. 3
111 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
The City’s STVR program consisted of 1,168 active permits as of September 30, 2022. There are a total of 67 Estate Permits (3 in the Primary Residence category, and 64 in the General Permits category).

Table 1 below lists the number of STVR permits for each area along with the total number of approved parcels for calendar year 2021 and Q1, Q2, and Q3 of 2022 and shows a decline of 258 STVR permits in Permit Ban areas due to permit attrition related to home sales and non-renewals, and an increase of 112 STVR permits in Exempt Areas since January 2021.
Table 1
Within the residential Permit Ban areas, as of September 2022, active STVR permits have collectively declined 24.88% (from 1,037 to 779) since January 2021:
Permit Ban Area Permits Density % Change since Jan ‘21
North La Quinta 109 4.2% -20.44%
Mid La Quinta 95 9.3% -32.14%
The Cove 242 5.1% -17.12%
South La Quinta (PGA West) 333 11.0% -28.85%
Totals Citywide 779 -24.88%

Figure 4 below depicts the number of STVR permits, on a quarterly basis, within each Permit Ban area for 2021 and Q1, Q2, and Q3 of 2022.

STVR Program Compliance Overview
The City’s STVR program consists of several interdependent activities such as permitting, licensing, tax collection, and compliance. This section focuses on specific compliance functions, which include managing complaints, conducting investigations, and enforcement (violations, citations, and suspensions).
Figure 6 below depicts a quarterly comparison of citywide STVR complaints for 2021 and 2022:
Q-1 2021-2022 – complaints declined 78%
Q-2 2021-2022 – complaints declined 63%
Q-3 2021-2022 – complaints declined 81%

Enforcement
On January 15, 2021, the City implemented several code changes to enhance the STVR program’s compliance tools and increase fines. Subsequently, overall compliance has increased while disturbance complaints have decreased.
Figure 8 below depicts quarterly STVR-related citations for 2022. Of note 68% or 44 out of the 65 total citations in 2022 were issued to unpermitted STVR properties:

STVR compliance activities are separated into one of two categories:
Disturbance – the majority of disturbance compliance activities are due to noise, generally caused by large events or gatherings, children running/screaming/laughing, popping balloons, construction, slamming doors, etc.
Other complaints include excessive parking, bright lights, trash, unsecured pool access, unmaintained yard, etc.
Administrative – the overwhelming majority of administrative compliance matters are related to operating/advertising without a STVR permit or business license, or failure to display STVR permit on listings. Others include incorrect or missing occupancy limit advertised on listings; failure to report/remit transient occupancy tax, etc.
72%, or 47 out of the 65 total citations in Q1, Q2, and Q3 of 2022 were issued for administrative matters, as depicted in Figure 10 below (primarily for operating/advertising without a STVR permit or business license, or failure to display STVR permit on listings).

Taxes, Fees, and STVR Program Costs
Table 2 provides an overview of annual STVR program revenues for calendar years 2019, 2020, 2021, and the 1st three quarters of 2022. Of note:
Despite declining STVR permits, Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenues increased in 2021 and continue to be on the rise in 2022 due to inflation and pent-up demand for travel post COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2021, Permit Ban areas generated approximately 80% of the total STVR TOT revenues and the remaining 20% was generated by Exempt areas. In 2022, Permit Ban areas generated approximately 73% of the total STVR TOT revenues, about a 7% drop from 2021, due to the 24.88% decline of STVR permits in Permit Ban areas caused by natural permit attrition, nonrenewals, and home sales. Permit/licensing fees and fine collections were sufficient to cover STVR program operational costs in 2021; and projections are on schedule to be sufficient for 2022.
Citation Fine collections spiked in 2020 and 2021 in correlation with enhanced enforcement tools; however, as expected substantially decreased in 2022 as overall compliance increased and has remained steady.
