CITY COUNCIL MEETING: December 16, 2025

STAFF REPORT

RECOMMENDATION
• The California Building Standards Commission (CBSC) recently adopted the 2025 California Building Standards Code (Code) (Attachment 1). • On December 2, 2025, Council introduced Ordinance No. 627 for first reading amending Title 8 of the La Quinta Municipal Code by adopting by reference the Code with local amendments.
• If adopted the Code will go into effect January 1, 2026, with the local amendments going into effect 30 days after adoption, or on January 15, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT – None.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The CBSC is responsible for overseeing the adoption, approval and publication of the California Building Standards Code, Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations.

Title 24 is published by CBSC and contains building standards divided into 13 “parts” that apply to all building occupancies throughout the state. Title 24 is published in its entirety every 3 years and applies automatically on January 1st of the coinciding triennial code adoption cycle.

New to the building standards is the California Wildland-Urban Interface Code, which integrates wild-fire related construction standards to reduce risk to life and structures.

The regulations include requirements for building materials, construction, fire resistant landscaping, water supply, and emergency vehicle access.

CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 1
9 Adopt Ordinance No. 627 on second reading amending Title 8 of the La Quinta Municipal Code and adopting the 2025 California Building Standards Code with local amendments.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
AGENDA TITLE: ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 627 ON SECOND READING AMENDING TITLE 8 OF THE LA QUINTA MUNICIPAL CODE AND ADOPTING THE 2025

CALIFORNIA BUILDING STANDARDS CODE WITH LOCAL AMENDMENTS CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Historically, Council has elected to adopt more restrictive requirements than what has been established by CBSC because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. The City’s Building Official and the Riverside County Fire Marshal have recommended changes and modifications be made to the Code and have advised that certain of said changes are reasonably necessary due to local conditions. A summary of the recommended amendments is attached (Attachment 2).

If adopted, Ordinance No. 627 will adopt the State-mandated Code with the City’s local amendments encompassing, but not limited to, the following:
• Reduction in size of non-sprinklered buildings and requiring sprinkler retrofitting in building additions.
• Requirement for increased fire classification of roofing assemblies. • Limitation in the use of aluminum wiring in electrical installations. • Permitting only underground electrical service installations in New Construction. • Make Home Hardening and Defensible Space also applicable in the “Moderate” Fire Hazard Severity Zone.

ALTERNATIVES
As Council introduced Ordinance No. 627 at first reading, staff does not recommend an alternative.

Amending Title 8 - 2025 California Building Standards Code Adopted: December 16, 2025

WHEREAS, the changes or modifications are substantially equivalent to changes or modifications that were previously filed by the governing body of the City and were in effect as of September 30, 2025, and otherwise relate to home hardening as regulated by the California Wildland-Urban Interface Code, which are specific exemptions within Assembly Bill 130 (AB 130, Chapter 22, Statutes of 2025).

WHEREAS, this ordinance aligns with the adopted greenhouse gas reduction strategy and general plan approved on or before June 10, 2025, and incentivizes allelectric construction and complies with federal law in permitting mixed-fuel residential construction.

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 “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 12 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Ordinance No. 627
Amending Title 8 - 2025 California Building Standards Code Adopted: December 16, 2025

Page 3 of 9 ends

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 as 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.

G. The Coachella Valley’s desert climate, marked by extreme heat, low humidity, and contrastingly cold winters with frequent frost warnings, places considerable strain on the region’s power infrastructure. Delays in expanding electrical capacity have not only hindered the area’s ability to accommodate ongoing residential growth but have also challenged the utility’s capacity to meet the increasing energy demands of existing customers. Cold weather further complicates this issue by reducing the efficiency of heat pumps, which rely on extracting ambient heat from the outdoor air. As temperatures drop, less heat is available for transfer, forcing the system to work harder to maintain temperatures, resulting in higher energy consumption and reduced performance. These combined challenges, limited infrastructure and the seasonal inefficiency of electric-only systems, support the case for allowing mixed-fuel residential construction as a more resilient and adaptable solution.

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 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. 13 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Ordinance No. 627
Amending Title 8 - 2025 California Building Standards Code Adopted: December 16, 2025

Page 4 of 9 ends

III. Geological Conditions:

A. La Quinta is situated 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:

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 2025 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.

Page 6 of 43 ends

(A) Termination Point for Overhead Utility Facilities. Utility facilities constructed, placed, or installed (referred to herein collectively as “constructed”), or proposed to be constructed within six feet of the lot line of any real property for which service is being or intended to be provided by said utility facilities, if the sole purpose of the construction of utility facilities is to terminate overhead utility facilities. Such utility facilities may be placed at a distance further than six feet from said lot line to enable a maximum underground run of two hundred feet.
(B) Ground-mounted Equipment. Ground-mounted transformers, pedestalmounted terminal boxes, meter cabinets, concealed ducts, and other appurtenances and associated equipment, which are part of and necessary for the operation of an underground electrical, communication, CATV, radio, or telegraphic system.

This section is not intended to eliminate or limit the obligation of any person, including a utility, to comply at all times with all provisions of this article, but expresses the intent of the La Quinta City Council as to who has the primary obligation of compliance. 120.6 Waiver. If any person believes that the application of any provision of this article is impractical and will cause practical difficulties and unnecessary hardship to him or her or the public in general due to certain topographical conditions, street configurations, underground obstacle, soil, water or other natural conditions which would make the underground installation of utility facilities unreasonable, said person may apply in writing to the Design & Development Department for a waiver of such provision of this article. Said application shall be filed with the Design & Development Department and the City Council shall consider said application no later than thirty (30) days thereafter, at which time it shall hear the Applicant’s evidence in support of the application, the comments and recommendations of the City’s employees and officials thereon. It may hear other parties. The City Council may grant a waiver from all or any provisions of this article after considering a specific application therefor and after making a finding that the application of the 25 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Ordinance No. 627
Amending Title 8 - 2025 California Building Standards Code Adopted: December 16, 2025

Page 7 of 43 ends

specific provision in question would be unreasonable, impractical and cause undue hardship to the Applicant or the general public. If the City Council does grant a waiver, it may impose reasonable conditions on said grant in the interest of protecting and preserving the public health, safety and general welfare. The City Council shall make its decision on the application no later than thirty (30) days after it has concluded its consideration thereof. The decision of the City Council shall be final.
120.7 Nonconformance: Continuance and Termination.
(A) Nonconformance. Any legally established utility facility not in conformity with the provision of this article as of the effective date of this ordinance shall be considered nonconforming.
(B) Nonconforming Utility Facilities Not Relocated. Any nonconforming utility facility may continue to be used and may be renewed, altered, enlarged, or have additions thereto in its existing location without any provisions of this article being applicable thereto. However, when any building or structure to which any nonconforming utility facility provides any service is enlarged or an addition is made thereto where the cost of replacing said building or structure including its addition or enlargement exceeds by 50 percent the cost of replacing said building or structure prior to its enlargement or the addition thereto, all utility facilities that provide service to such building or structure, as described in the aforesaid clause, shall be caused to comply with all provisions of this article. (C) Nonconforming Utility Facilities Relocated. Whenever an existing service is relocated on nonconforming property, or a new service is established on nonconforming property, any such relocated or new service shall be caused to comply with all the provisions of this article.

FISCAL IMPACT – No meeting attendance compensation is paid to absent members.

A board, commission or committee member may request advance permission from the city council to be absent at one or more regular meetings due to extenuating circumstances, and/or may request the city council to excuse an absence after-the-fact where such extenuating circumstances prevented the member from seeking advance permission to be absent. If such permission or excuse is granted by the city council, the absence shall not be counted toward the above-stated limitations on absences.”

ALTERNATIVES
Council may deny this request, which would result in the absence being counted toward the Commissioner’s limitation on absences as noted above.

1 ANNUAL MEASURE G SALES TAX OVERSIGHT
REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

OVERVIEW
The Financial Advisory Commission (FAC) provides oversight of Measure G tax revenue. This Annual Measure G Sales Tax Oversight Report covers the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. Exhibit A includes a detailed summary of all Measure G activity.

Measure G is a 1% transactions tax applied to sales of taxable goods and is part of the overall

8.75% sales tax rate in the City. It applies to goods transferred at the point of sale (businesses within La Quinta City limits), and to goods purchased in other jurisdictions that are delivered to addresses within the City.

Measure G revenue continues to help La Quinta thrive and remains essential to the City’s longterm financial health. These funds support the realization of La Quinta’s Sacred Values – Fiscal Sustainability, Health and Wellness, a Vibrant and Safe Community, a Visually Beautiful City, and Cultural Diversity – ensuring that our community continues to shine as “The Gem of the Desert,” now and for generations to come.

REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
Fiscal Year 2024/25
• Revenue from Measure G totaled approximately $15.6 million, which is slightly above the budgeted amount of $15.5 million and consistent with the prior fiscal year’s revenue of $15.5 million, reflecting stable performance year over year. • An allocation of $12.2 million went towards citywide infrastructure and public recreational facility improvements, creating lasting assets for public use and enjoyment. • The City invested $7.3 million in public safety services, which continues to be a top priority for La Quinta.
• Approximately $4 million of Measure G reserves was utilized for capital improvement projects, bringing the total reserve balance to $29.6 million. These reserves are intentionally maintained to ensure long-term financial stability and to provide flexibility during economic downturns.
102 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
2 Since Inception
• $108 million in total Measure G funds has been collected, and the City continues to utilize these funds in alignment with the original intent of Measure G. • Approximately $45 million or 42% of Measure G funds have been allocated to improving citywide infrastructure and public recreational facilities. • Public safety services are a priority of La Quinta and have been supported with approximately $33.2 million or 31% of Measure G funds.
• Fiscally responsible budgeting, prudent long-term financial projections, funds oversight, and financial transparency have strengthened the City’s reserves with Measure G funds since the implementation of Measure G in April 2017. These practices have supported the City’s strong fiscal standing, reflected in its top ranking on the California Policy Center’s Local Fiscal Health Dashboard.

FISCAL YEAR 2024/25 REVENUES
Total Measure G sales tax revenue for fiscal year FY 2024/25 was $15.6 million, which was slightly higher than the $15.5 million initially anticipated when budgeted, reflecting stable performance and continued fiscal resilience despite broader economic headwinds. Revenue trends remained steady through FY 2024/25, with overall receipts showing modest year-overyear growth. While certain consumer sectors such as restaurants and online retail performed well, spending on goods and construction activity softened as households maintained cautious spending patterns.

REVENUES SINCE INCEPTION
The chart below summarizes Measure G revenue received from fiscal years 2016/17 through 2024/25. Measure G sales tax revenue for FY 2024/25 was slightly above initial projections, reflecting continued stability in local economic activity. While spending patterns remain cautious, recent reductions in federal interest rates have generated optimism for improved financing conditions and potential boosts in consumer confidence. However, ongoing national tariff discussions and persistent inflationary pressures continue to influence household spending power, contributing to a period of modest growth as the broader economy adjusts to changing market conditions. Staff will closely monitor these trends and adjust projections as needed to ensure prudent financial planning for the years ahead. $-

3 FISCAL YEAR 2024/25 USES
Operational expenses and capital improvements for FY 2024/25 were prioritized, with approximately $12.2 million in Measure G funds allocated toward Capital Improvement Projects citywide and $7.3 million allocated to public safety. To support these priorities, about $4 million in Measure G reserves were utilized. No additional revenue was set aside for reserves this fiscal year, as the focus remained on advancing key infrastructure, facility, and community enhancement projects that align with the City’s long-term strategic goals.

USES SINCE INCEPTION
Annually, the City hosts a community workshop to either affirm and/or redirect the following year’s budget priorities. Staff then evaluates funding options such as grants, interagency cost sharing, and use of reserves. Public safety services have been a community priority since before Measure G, and with the support of this additional revenue, the City has been able to maintain the public safety service levels the community desires.

The chart below summarizes the uses since the inception of Measure G funds. Approximately, $45 million, or 42% of these funds are for projects to improve citywide infrastructure and public recreational facilities.
• Public Safety use reflects the City’s continuing commitment to providing all residents with a safe living environment.
• Infrastructure improvement projects have included numerous road repairs to extend their useful life, street striping projects, drainage improvements to avoid street flooding, an investment in Highway 111 (a crucial commercial corridor for our City where a majority of sales taxes are generated), an overhaul of landscape medians north of Highway 111, the design of an updated corporate yard with administrative and crew quarters, and Welcome Center improvements for city-owned property located near the entrance to the Bear Creek Trail on Eisenhower Drive and Calle Tampico. • Recreation projects have included funding for the new X-Park near La Quinta High School, the SilverRock event site, design of a new future Village Art Plaza Promenade & Cultural Campus connected to the La Quinta Museum, Fritz Burns Park improvements, citywide dog park improvements, and the Sports Complex lighting replacement.

4 • Measure G reserves reflect fiscal responsibility and allow for operational flexibility by ensuring cash is available for public safety services and capital improvement projects when they are most efficient to complete.

The chart below summarizes citywide infrastructure improvements and recreational projects, totaling about $45 million funded with Measure G revenues.

LOOKING AHEAD
As La Quinta continues to navigate shifting economic conditions, Measure G remains essential to the City’s ability to sustain core services and invest in community priorities. While the broader economy is showing cautious optimism following recent reductions in federal interest rates, ongoing tariff discussions and inflationary pressures continue to shape household spending and local sales trends.

Looking forward, the City will continue to strategically invest Measure G funds in projects that strengthen infrastructure, enhance public safety, and improve quality of life, while maintaining a disciplined and transparent approach to financial management.

Key areas of focus include:
• Critical electrical and utility infrastructure upgrades to improve system reliability, capacity, and safety- including enhancements to energy gridlines and transformers that reduce fire risk and ensure home security systems and essential services remain online. • Public safety facilities and technology investments to ensure continued community protection
• Roadway, bridge, and transportation improvements supporting connectivity and safety • Revitalization of the Highway 111 Corridor and enhancement of public spaces that promote economic vitality and community pride
These efforts demonstrate La Quinta’s commitment to fiscal sustainability, proactive planning, and resident-centered investment. Measure G funding remains a cornerstone of this 105 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
5 commitment, preserving the City’s financial strength and enabling La Quinta to uphold its Sacred Values of Fiscal Sustainability, Health and Wellness, a Vibrant and Safe Community, a Visually Beautiful City, and Cultural Diversity, ensuring that our community continues to shine as “The Gem of the Desert” for generations to come.

Revenues are not received uniformly throughout the year, resulting in peaks and valleys. For example, large property tax payments are usually received in December and May. Similarly, Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund payments are typically received in January and June. Any timing imbalance of revenue receipts versus expenditures is funded from the City’s cash flow reserve. Unlike revenues, expenditures are more likely to be consistent from month to month. However, large debt service payments or CIP expenditures can cause swings.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: December 16, 2025

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPOINT A MEMBER OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO SERVE AS MAYOR PRO TEMPORE FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2026

RECOMMENDATION
Appoint a member of the City Council to serve as Mayor Pro Tempore for calendar year 2026.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 The Mayor Pro Tempore is the presiding officer at all Council meetings and related functions and activities when the Mayor is absent.
 The selection of Mayor Pro Tempore is governed by State law (Gov. Code § 36801) and the City’s Rules of Procedure for Public Meetings (Resolution No. 2022-027). The laws require the Council to choose one of its members as Mayor Pro Tempore at the same meeting it declares the results of a general municipal election, or during odd-numbered years, at a regular meeting in the last calendar quarter.

FISCAL IMPACT – None.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Council’s Rules of Procedure prescribes that the selection of a Mayor Pro Tempore shall be by three (3) or more affirmative votes, and a failure to achieve such total of affirmative votes, shall be deemed a selection of the incumbent to remain in office. The Resolution also stipulates that a successor or replacement Mayor Pro Tempore may be chosen at any time by three (3) or more affirmative votes.

The office has been held by the following officials in recent years.  2020 – Mayor Pro Tem Peña
 2021 – Mayor Pro Tem Radi
 2022 – Mayor Pro Tem Fitzpatrick
 2023 – Mayor Pro Tem Sanchez
 2024 – Mayor Pro Tem Peña
 2025 – Mayor Pro Tem McGarrey

ALTERNATIVES
There are no alternatives to the recommended action.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: December 16, 2025

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPOINT MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO SERVE ON VARIOUS OUTSIDE AGENCIES FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2026

RECOMMENDATION
Appoint members of the City Council as City representatives to serve on various local, regional, and state boards, commissions, and committees for calendar year 2026.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 Each year, the Council selects Councilmembers to serve on various local, regional, and state boards, commissions, and committees.
 Attachment 1 details the various outside agencies, their meeting schedules, and Council’s current assignments per the 2025 appointed representatives and alternates, including current voluntary assignments. The agencies that offer stipends are identified with an asterisk (*).

FISCAL IMPACT
Attendance at some meetings requires City representatives to incur reimbursable travel costs that could include mileage, airfare, meals, and/or overnight hotel stays. Travel costs for the first half of 2026 are included in fiscal year (FY) 2025/26 Travel and Training budget (Account No. 101-1001-60320). For meetings scheduled in the latter half of 2026, the costs will be included in FY 2026/27 budget.

Voluntary assignments do not qualify for reimbursable travel expenses by the City.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The City is involved in various government boards, commissions, or committees relating to local, regional, and state affairs. The City Council may appoint one or more of its members to these agencies or may appoint a citizen to represent the City.

When appointing a member of the Council, the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) [FPPC Regulation 18702.5] allows an elected official to vote on his/her/their own appointment to another public agency’s board, committee, or commission if the appropriate form [Form 806 – Agency Report of: Public Official Appointments] is posted disclosing any compensation received. This form is posted on the City’s website and will be immediately updated following this meeting. If Council opts to select a citizen representative, the City Clerk will seek applicants for that position.

Enclosed Attachment 1 details Council’s current assignments to the various outside agencies, including current voluntary assignments which are listed in green font as they do not require an appointment by the Council, however, all assignments are disclosed in accordance with FPPC guidelines as noted above.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE RECIPIENTS OF THE PILLAR OF THE COMMUNITY AWARD

RECOMMENDATION
Approve recipients of the Pillar of the Community Award.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• La Quinta’s Community Services Awards Program includes the Pillar of the Community Award (Pillar Award) (Attachment 1) which recognizes outstanding citizens for their contributions to the community.
• Phil La Greca and Doug Hassett were nominated for the Pillar Award for their volunteerism and involvement with community organizations. • The Arts and Community Services Commission (ACSC) reviewed the award nominees and recommended Council approve Mr. La Greca and Mr. Hassett for the Pillar Award.

143 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Phil La Greca is nominated for the Pillar Award in recognition of his more than 2 decades of service to La Quinta and the Coachella Valley. As a La Quinta resident for over 20 years, he served on the Arts and Community Services Commission from 2019–2023, contributing to program evaluations, park improvements, and community recommendations. Phil has volunteered extensively with the La Quinta Art Celebration, is a Tourism Ambassador with Visit Greater Palm Springs, and has assisted fundraisers for Coachella Valley Horse Rescue. He is a former Little League coach and Army veteran, reflecting a lifelong commitment to mentoring and community engagement. Colleagues and event organizers describe him as warm, energetic, and always willing to help.

Doug Hassett is nominated for the Pillar Award due to his more than 3 decades of dedicated civic involvement and service to La Quinta. A Cove resident since 1992, he has served on the Construction Board of Appeals, the Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control Board (including as President), and currently on the La Quinta Planning Commission, where he has held roles as Vice Chair and Chair.

Since 2015, Doug has contributed to numerous City ceremonies and events by lending his musical talents to the Veterans Recognition Ceremony, 9/11 Vigil, Hunter Lopez Vigil, City Picnic, and Tree Lighting celebrations. He actively champions community improvements such as off-street parking at the top of the Cove and participation in the Measure G study committee. Nominators emphasize his loyalty, deep policy knowledge, and tireless presence at City meetings and workshops, reflecting a sustained commitment that exemplifies the intent of the City’s highest community honor.

The ACSC reviewed the nominations during its December 8, 2025, regular quarterly meeting and recommended approving both nominees. If approved by Council, the nominees will be presented with a plaque and commemorative pin during an upcoming Council meeting and have their names engraved on the Community Awards Acknowledgement Monument in Civic Center Park.

ALTERNATIVES
Council may choose not to approve the nominees.

Re: Community Service Awards
Dear Sally,
Both as a resident of La Quinta and an employee of SCOPE Events, LLC, I am writing you to recommend Phil La Greca for the Community Service Award. Phil has been a resident of La Quinta for over 20 years and has diligently served as a Volunteer for La Quinta Arts Festival and La Quinta Art Celebration events every year. Whenever we have a new volunteer position, we always know that Phil will be up for the challenge and will embrace it. At the Spring 2025 event, we asked if he could takeover the dreaded task of Captain for Artist Labor for Hire.

Although artists sign-up prior to the event, it doesn't mean they will be ready at their designated time slot to have our labor crew help them to set-up or tear-down. By the end of the first hour, the schedule is already in chaos. We needed an individual that was strong enough to stand-up to the artists when informing them that they had missed their time slot and now would have to wait, one that can handle stress and keep their sense of humor through 2 days of set-up and Sunday night tear-down, and earn the respect of the artists overall.

Not only did Phil excel, but he is going to be the Captain for Labor once again in November! In addition throughout the show, Phil delivers boxed lunches to artists, is a bartender at the Artist Award Reception, and is always available when I need one more favor! But the Arts Celebrations are just a small display of Phil's talents.

He also served 11 years as a Tourism Guide for Visit Greater Palm Springs Tourism, 15 years as a Guide for Desert Adventures, is a Certified Nationalist Graduate from Cal State Riverside. Before he moved to the desert, he was a Little League coach for 25 years in Orange County, and is an Army Veteran.

Phil La Greca is an asset to our community and should be recognized for his years of dedication. Please honor this individual.

Sincerely,
Kathleen Hughes, Event Director

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 Since 2023, the City has been working with Imperial Irrigation District (IID) and private developers on a cost-share plan to expand electrical power capacity at the BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 4
163 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Avenue 58 substation to accommodate projects in various stages of approval and/or construction, at an estimated cost of $23.25 million.  On November 18, 2025, IID Board of Directors unanimously approved two agreements regarding the Avenue 58 substation expansion:
1) Engineering and Procurement Agreement for the funding and procurement of certain engineering efforts and long lead-time power equipment to be paid for by the City, subject to reimbursement thereof; and 2) Funding and Reservation of Capacity Agreement for the Avenue 58 Transformer Bank Addition, which provides for the complete funding of the new facility by developers with the City and/or Riverside County (County) participating financially should there be a shortfall by private developers.  Staff recommends up to $10 million be appropriated for a loan to the Financing Authority for the Financing Authority to then effectuate the purchase of certain long lead-time power equipment, including a distribution transformer, breakers, switchgear, and a control house that can take up to 16 months to receive, and to provide a funding backstop in the event there is a shortfall by private developers for which the Financing Authority would be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the agreements. The Financing Authority would be responsible for re-paying the loan to the City pursuant to the terms and conditions in the Financing Agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT
Staff recommends Council appropriate up to $10 million from General Fund Unassigned Reserves to be loaned by the City to the Financing Authority (Fund 310) for the procurement of certain long lead-time power equipment necessary for the Avenue 58 substation expansion. These funds would be reimbursed by developers upon commencement of their milestone payments in accordance with the Funding and Reservation of Capacity Agreement.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
At the City’s 2025 Community Workshop, La Quinta residents listed addressing the pending IID/Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) Agreement of Compromise that terminates on January 1, 2033, and equipment needs as their No. 1 priority.

With electrical use rising due to new technology, building codes requiring additional electrification for new construction, and a shift toward electric vehicles, power substations in La Quinta and throughout the Coachella Valley are near capacity, which has stalled new and expanded development.

IID’s policy is that growth pays for growth, and it is appropriate for developers to pay their proportionate share for new, expanded or upgraded substations based on power capacity requirements for their individual projects.
164 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Since 2023, the City has been working with IID and private developers on a cost-share plan to expand electrical power capacity at the Avenue 58 substation, located north of Avenue 58 and west of Monroe Street in La Quinta, to accommodate projects in various stages of approval and/or construction.

On November 18, 2025, the IID Board of Directors unanimously approved two agreements listed below for the Avenue 58 substation electrical infrastructure improvements and procurement of certain power equipment, at an estimated cost of $23.25 million, which includes adding a fourth transformer bank and associated improvements that has the ability to serve 3,000 to 4,000 new homes:
(1) Engineering and Procurement Agreement (for certain long lead-time equipment to be paid by the City, subject to reimbursement thereof), and (2) Funding and Reservation of Capacity Agreement for the Avenue 58 Transformer Bank Addition.

IID would continue to own, maintain, and operate the substation. The two agreements with IID would ensure the cost for the substation expansion is shared between IID, the City, County, and the prospective developers’ based on their proportionate power use.

IID will contribute up to 20% of the costs associated with the Avenue 58 substation expansion. Developers will reserve capacity and contribute their proportional share based on their individual projects. The total contribution by developers is required to meet a minimum threshold of 50% of remaining costs after IID’s contribution. Finally, if there is any remaining capacity after the developers’ contribution, then the City and County will become the backstop and contribute the remainder at a 65% City and 35% County split, with expected reimbursements pursuant to the two agreements’ terms.

The long lead-time power equipment is projected to be received 14 to 16 months from purchase with construction of the fourth bank expected to start in 2027 and be completed in 2028.

On December 3, 2025, staff provided a presentation to the Financial Advisory Commission (FAC) on the progress made in negotiating agreements between the City, IID, County, and interested developers. This was not an action item, but the FAC expressed support for the City’s progress and plan for financing the project subject to developer reimbursement.

The agreements approved by the IID Board of Directors contain the material terms relating to amount appropriated and purpose for use of the funds, but specific provisions relating to the City’s funding approach by using the Financing Authority may be requested and agreeable to both IID and the County. Regardless, the preferred funding mechanism for the City, including for “bookkeeping” purposes and to account for immediate City disbursement and anticipated repayments to be well into the future, has integrated a Financing Agreement between the City and Financing Authority. 165 CLICK HERE to Return to Agenda
Because modifications to the respective agreements may be amenable to IID and the County, staff requests authorizing the City Manager, with the City Attorney’s review, to revise the agreements in their forms attached to this staff report, to effectuate their respective purposes but in no event would the City Manager have authority to increase the appropriated amount or change the specified uses of these City funds without obtaining Council approval in advance.

ALTERNATIVES
Council may elect not to appropriate funds and not to approve any or all of these agreements, though staff does not recommend this alternative.
