** EXTERNAL: This message originated outside of the City of La Quinta. Please use proper judgement and caution when opening attachments, clicking links or responding to requests for information. ** Dear City Clerk for the City of La Quinta,
Regarding: Santa Rosa Cove (SRC) – NEW STVR Permits: Please include the following e‐mail (below) as a public comment for the City Council meeting on 02/21/2023.
Our names are Lorna Beccaria and Robert Zimmerman, we are long standing homeowners at Santa Rosa Cove, since 2005. We previousIy had a short‐term permit, which NEVER incurred any violations. When we sold our prior home in August of 2020 and bought our new residence (both in SRC), we were told that the permit was not transferrable to our new residence. We would like to ask the La Quinta City Council to consider opening our community for new short term rental permits, given the following facts:
o Santa Rosa Cove HOA’s CCRs allow for short term rentals. o Santa Rosa Cove HOA already has a 7‐day minimum requirement on all short‐term stays. o Total number of citations for years 2020, 2021, and 2022 combined is 4. These appear to be all administrative citations, and none for neighborhood disturbance (noise, occupancy, trash, parking, etc.) o Santa Rosa Cove HOA conducted a survey in February of 2022. Ballots were mailed to all 334 homeowners, and the vote took place in regards to allowing new STVR permits within the HOA. The results were as follows: 233 ballots were returned, and 70% of returned ballots (163 votes) were in support of opening the community for new STVR permits.
Santa Rosa Cove is located adjacent to the La Quinta Resort and has been a resort community itself for many years.
Santa Rosa Cove is a very low risk community for any STVR related issues, and the majority of the homeowners are in support of re‐opening this community for new STVR permits. We are asking the City Council to vote to allow new STVR permits within Santa Rosa Cove HOA.
Thank you for consideration of our request and for taking the time to read our comments.
Respectfully,
Lorna Beccaria & Robert Zimmerman

Hello,
My name is Ken Kristensen, and I am a home owner at Santa Rosa Cove. I would like to ask the city council to consider opening our community for new short term rental permits, given the following facts:
Santa Rosa Cove HOA’s CCRs allow for short term rentals. Santa Rosa Cove HOA already has a 7 day minimum requirement on all short term stays. Total number of citations for years 2020, 2021, and 2022 combined is 4. These appear to be all administrative citations, and none for neighborhood disturbance (noise, occupancy, trash, parking, etc.)
Santa Rosa Cove HOA conducted a survey in February of 2022. Ballots were mailed to all 334 home owners, and the vote took place in regards to allowing new STVR permits within the HOA. The results were as follows: 233 ballots were returned, and 70% of returned ballots (163 votes) were in support of opening the community for new STVR permits.
Santa Rosa Cove is located right next to La Quinta Resort and has been a resort community itself for many years. Santa Rosa Cove is a very low risk community for any STVR related issues, and the home owners are in support of re-opening this community for new STVR permits.
I am asking the city council to vote to allow new STVR permits within Santa Rosa Cove HOA.

Subject: Santa Rosa Cove's desire for new STVR permits
** EXTERNAL: This message originated outside of the City of La Quinta. Please use proper judgement and caution when opening attachments, clicking links or responding to requests for information. ** To Whom It May Concern:
(Please feel free to include my email as a public comment for the city council meeting on 2/21/2023.) My name is Bruce Marshall Romans, and I am a relatively new home owner in the Santa Rosa Cove community. I would like to respectfully ask the city council to please consider re-opening our community to having short-term vacation rental permits. I bought my home during the moratorium and was under the impression it was a temporary response to the STVR abuse that was occurring during the pandemic and lockdowns. I was quite surprised that the moratorium was made a permanent rule.
Please take into account the below facts when making your consideration:
- Santa Rosa Cove HOA's CCRs allow for short-term rentals. This is something that all Santa Rosa Cove homeowners have already agreed to when purchasing their property. This is not a new concept for our community and has always been a part of it.
- Santa Rosa Cove's HOA already has a self-imposed 7 day minimum requirement on all short term stays.
- Santa Rosa Cove's short-term rentals have not caused any problems, complaints, or concerns. The total number of citations for years 2020, 2021, and 2022 is 4. Not one of these four citations are for neighborhood disturbances such as noise, occupancy, trash, parking, etc. These four citations were all administrative only.
- Santa Rosa Cove's HOA conducted a survey in February of 2022 wherein ballots were mailed to all 334 home owners. Each homeowner was asked to vote as to whether or not STVRs should be allowed in Santa Rosa Cove - the response was overwhelmingly in favor of allowing STVRs. Of the 223 returned ballots, 163 voted in support of reopening the community to STVR permits. This is over 70% of our voting community.
Santa Rosa Cove is a gated community located on the La Quinta Resort's property and has been a resort community for many years. Santa Rosa Cove is a very very low risk community for any STVR related issues and the home owners are in support of allowing the community to STVR permits. I am now asking that the city council vote to allow new STVR permits within the Santa Rosa Cove HOA.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello,
My name is Christian Schofield, I own a home in Santa Rosa Cove. I would like to ask the city council to consider opening our community for new short term rental permits, given the following facts:
o Santa Rosa Cove HOA’s CCRs allow for short term rentals and have for decades. o Santa Rosa Cove HOA already has a 7 day minimum requirement on all short term stays. o Total number of citations for years 2020, 2021, and 2022 combined is 4. These appear to be all administrative citations, and none for neighborhood disturbance (noise, occupancy, trash, parking, etc.)
o Santa Rosa Cove HOA conducted a survey in February of 2022. Ballots were mailed to all 334 home owners, and the vote took place in regards to allowing new STVR permits within the HOA. The results were as follows: 233 ballots were returned (this is 70% of the ownership and well above what our CCRs require for quorum. 70% of returned ballots (163 votes) were in support of opening the community for new STVR permits.
o Santa Rosa Cove is located right next to La Quinta Resort and has been a resort community itself for many years and has very few permanent residences. Santa Rosa Cove was originally designed as a vacation community, not a permanent residential community and should be treated as a resort community.
o Santa Rosa Cove is a very low risk community for any STVR related issues as there are no homes larger than 3 bedrooms, we have full time security, and we attract families because we are effectively attached to the hotel and often thought of as part of the resort property. o The home owners are in support of re-opening this community for new STVR permits. I am asking the city council to vote to allow new STVR permits within Santa Rosa Cove HOA, as we already allow this per our current CCRs and the large majority of active homeowners are in favor of allowing STVR.
Thank you taking the time to read my comments.
