ETL Team
Reference code (picklist) mappings are read from a table (optional).

ETL Team
Additional logic to transform or enrich the data
standardization, transformation is implemented in this step of processing as well
ETL Team
Link parent - child objects using lookup fields on dependent objects, IDs of rows loaded into parent objects in Salesforce are retrieved before loading dependent/child objects.

ETL Team
Technical data validation - source vs target row count, ownership count, historical dates SF DA, ETL Team
Reports are run on the Staging 2 data storing Salesforce objects to identify any data quality issues.

Business Team
If any are found, data cleanup on the source system may be done before proceeding to step 6. Steps 1-5 could be run repeatedly before step 6 is run for the first time.

ETL Team
Technical data validation - source vs target row count, ownership count, historical dates SF DA, ETL Team
Business users will perform usability and functional testing on the data in this environment before a load to Production Salesforce is done.

Business Team
Integration testing with migrated data Testing
Objects are loaded in a sequence based on dependencies
(e.g., Accounts, then Contacts). Lookup fields on dependent objects, IDs of rows loaded into Parent objects in Salesforce are retrieved before loading dependent/child objects.

ETL Team
Track data load time per object to plan for production load ETL Team Final production load ETL Team

Each source system extract is
loaded into a separate table in a
relational database.

7 The final step is loading to
Production Salesforce. ETL is used
to once again read data from the
Staging 2 tables and load into
Production Salesforce.
5 Reports or queries are run on the
Staging 2 data to identify any
data quality issues.
6 ETL loads data from the Staging 2
tables into a sandbox that mirrors
the configuration of the
Production Salesforce org.

The data in the Staging 1 tables is
transformed using ETL and stored
in the Staging 2 tables.

9.Training
As part of this proposal, Speridian will provide a ‘Super User’ training. The training will be conducted on-site and divided into two parts.

1. User Training

2. Admin Training
Super Users: Super Users are defined as Client’s stake holders who will own the application on day-today basis. The key responsibilities of a Super User include  Thoroughly understanding the application functionality.  Thoroughly understanding different user profiles and the access controls applicable to each of them.
 Training the end users on how to use the application based on their roles and responsibilities.
 Resolving end user basic queries.
 Understanding the administrative capabilities of the system.  Performing the day-today basic administration of the application

Page 753 of 934 ends

www.speridian.com | 9201 Corporate Blvd, Suite 450, Rockville, MD, 20850 50 Training component details are described below

1. User Training
 Process Walk Through: Speridian will walk the Super Users through the different functional processes built within the system. This will be done via a presentation.  Supervisor Training: Here the Super Users will be trained on the tasks that a supervisor should perform within the system to efficiently run his team.  Management Training: The Super Users will be explained on how the management can use the system to track the overall progress of the department/Organization.  Dos & Don’ts: Super User will be briefed about the dos and don’ts for a Super User and other profiles created within the system. This will be with respect to the functional processes.

2. Admin Training
 Administrative Concepts: Speridian will explain the Super User the concepts of the application administration. This will help the Super User understand the extent to which they can administer and maintain the application without Speridian’s help.  Profile Management: One of the key administrative tasks for the Super User would be to manage the profiles and access controls based on the profiles. Speridian will train the Super User on how to add & modify these profiles.  User Management: The other key tasks is to add & remove users. If a new user is added, then associate the right profile with the user. Post admin training, the super user will be able to perform this task.
 Application Administration: The other administrative tasks within the purview of Super User’s responsibility will be explained.
 Dos & Don’ts: Super User will be briefed about the administrative dos and don’ts.

Our training plans are agile and are designed to meet the City’s expectations. During our training planning session, a thorough assessment of the audience, their technical skill level, experience using similar solutions etc. are taken into consideration when deciding the Training batches or groups to ensure the message is reached to everyone who is part of the training.

Speridian’s Certified Trainers have comprehensive experience delivering training programs in Online mode as well as Classroom mode. One of the highly appreciated benefits of our Online training sessions are the Training Video Recordings shared with the Clients, which the Client can leverage in training more resources or future references.

13. Assumptions & City Involvement
General Assumptions
 Any feature which is not part of the proposed solutions’ current release shall be out of scope
 Client will provide strong sponsorship from top management to enable Speridian and the assigned project team to effectively execute the projects, resolve any issues and address any delays.
 Client will ensure that all stake holders are aware of project timelines and get their support and availability for discussions reviews and signoff within the time required.

Any delays in this would have an impact to the schedule and deliverables.  Client will appoint a dedicated program manager and process group leads who will act as coordinators for their related departments where required.  Client will assign appropriate resources to enable Speridian to complete the listed project tasks within the timeframe specified in the project plan.  Client will be responsible for providing all the required information about the Business, Application, Data and Technology components to ensure timely completion of the project tasks and deliverables.
 Client will provide the required office facilities to enable Speridian resources to conduct their tasks effectively.
 The Client Support Team from the IT support organizations will be provided in a timely manner. Any reasonable requests for extended build and testing support will not be unreasonably denied or delayed.
 For UAT, members of the user team—especially the resources who participated in the various discovery sessions—will be made available for executing the user testing activities.
 All necessary hardware and associated environments will be available as needed in conjunction with the project plan.
 No attempt will be made to change or improve the operation of the application without a CR.

Page 761 of 934 ends

www.speridian.com | 9201 Corporate Blvd, Suite 450, Rockville, MD, 20850 58 Project Assumptions
 City will provide timely review and feedback on all submitted work products and deliverables per the mutually agreed project schedule.
 Access to key City staff when decision-making is required.  City will facilitate any coordination and/or interdependencies with other system vendors, as necessary.
 The City’s project team will make available documentation that is currently available for the existing system, updated data dictionary or ERDs, and target system interfaces documentation where applicable.
 The proposed solution environments and sandboxes would need to have connectivity with the respective internal DLL/External systems as necessary and provide interfaces for consumption.
 City will help setup service accounts for external interfaces required for consumption.  The Speridian team will require access to external system Sandbox environments and/or access to resources who can help test with the integrating systems.  Speridian data conversion team will require access to actual production data extracts and documents during the conversion phase. The availability of extracts is critical to the success of the conversion phase.
 Since Speridian will be providing in-person, instructor-led training, it is expected the City will provide classrooms and equipment for onsite training, if and as appropriate.

Team Structure for Technical Support
This section will refer to how the technical support is split for meeting the problems that might appear when the final users are handling the software. The technical support levels will be split on 2 levels:

1. Collecting any requirements/incidents from the City of Palm Desert Level1 support team and sending it to the technical team that handles problems

2. Direct initiation of procedures destined to solve problems that require special technical abilities.

Technical Support Levels Responsibilities
Each level of support has set of responsibilities to be take care of. These responsibilities are listed out below:

Responsibilities for level 1 – City of Palm Desert Level 1 Support team  Assuring support for local users
 Identifying and registering incidents

 Communicating the result to final users
 Route/Report incidents through Customer Ticketing System to Speridian Support Team Responsibilities for level 2 – Speridian Team
 Assuring a database that contains incidents and a way of solving the incidents (assigning the incidents to the team of development that deals with the support phase)  Collecting incidents from the first level of technical support  Grouping incidents by errors
 Reproducing errors in a test phase, before third level of technical support  Classification and qualification of errors
 Registering software errors
Responsibilities for level 3 – Speridian Team
 Solving incidents caused by errors considered to be critical  Reproducing and analyzing the signaled errors
 Assuring that the errors are not still present in the application  Testing the new application version

 Analyzing change request forms

Page 768 of 934 ends

www.speridian.com | 9201 Corporate Blvd, Suite 450, Rockville, MD, 20850 65 Support Timings
Speridian will provide offsite support model for standard working hours Monday to Friday (City of Palm Desert Working Hours). However, if P1 issues are raised during the working hours where the business functionality is impacted, SPERIDIAN will provide support after working hours.

Support Duration
This proposal is for providing support for the duration of 1 year (Extendable however, the City needs to initiate the extension before contract expiration).

Definition & Support SLA’s
The following section describes the error classifications that will be handled as a part of this Support Project and the SLA’s that needs to be achieved.

SLA’s
SLA is the agreed upon duration after the issue is communicated to Speridian until at least a temporary fix or workaround is available, or there is an action plan that is agreed to by City of Palm Desert and Speridian.

No Error Class Description
1 Severity1 This is catastrophic error. The error causes total failure of the software or results in unrecoverable data loss. E.g. System crash or Data Corruption 2 Severity2
This is an error that causes failure on critical parts of the system; causing the system not to operate in accordance with the specifications but still usable with difficulty and/or some disruption to business activity. A temporary solution may exist, but does not solve the entire problem
3 Severity3 This is an error that causes failure on non-critical parts of the system with no disruption to business activity. A temporary solution exists, and will be made available to the City. 4 Severity4 This is minor defect which Is not impacting the Systems like Spelling errors etc.

The beginning and end of each calendar month will conform to U.S. Pacific Time.

Upon payment of the True Up Payment, all SAAS Services showing unauthorized use will be converted into compliant SAAS Services and invoiced at CLARITI's then-current list pricing for the remainder of the Term.

FOR PLATFORM EMBEDDED EDITION OEM SERVICES SUBSCRIPTIONS This governs the Customer’s access to and use of the Apex Platform and related services provided by Salesforce.com.

If Customer does not accept and agree to this Agreement, Customer may not access or use the Apex Platform.

1. Definitions.

In this Agreement:

(h) “SFDC Service” means the online, Web-based application and platform service generally made available to the public via http://www.salesforce.com and/or other designated websites, including associated offline components but excluding AppExchange applications.

(a) Each User subscription to the CLARITI Application shall entitle one User to use the Service via the CLARITI Application, subject to the terms of this SFDC Service Agreement, together with any other terms required by CLARITI. User subscriptions cannot be shared or used by more than one User (but may be reassigned from time to time to new Users who are replacing former Users who have terminated employment with You or otherwise changed job status or function and no longer require use of the Service).

In the event Your access to the CLARITI Application provides You with access to the SFDC Service generally or access to any SFDC Service functionality within it that is in excess to the functionality described in the CLARITI Application’s user guide, and You have not separately subscribed under a written contract with SFDC for such access, then You agree to not access and use such functionality, and You agree that Your use of such functionality, Your use of applications other than the CLARITI Application, or Your creation or use of additional custom objects in the CLARITI Application beyond that which appears in the CLARITI Application in the form that it has been provided to You by CLARITI, would be a material breach of this Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding any access You may have to the Platform or the SFDC Service via the CLARITI Application, CLARITI is the sole provider of the CLARITI Application and You are entering into a contractual relationship solely with CLARITI.

In the event that CLARITI ceases operations or otherwise ceases or fails to provide the CLARITI Application, SFDC has no obligation to provide the CLARITI Application or to refund You any fees paid by You to CLARITI.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: November 16, 2023
PREPARED BY: Vanessa Mager, Management Analyst
REQUEST: APPROVE AN EXTENSION TO THE DINING DECK PROGRAM AND

DIRECT STAFF TO RESEARCH A POTENTIAL FEE FOR USE OF THE

RIGHT-OF-WAY
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve an extension to the temporary outdoor dining deck program for an additional two (2) years through June 30, 2026, to align with the State’s new extension.

2. Approve updates to the current Outdoor Dining Deck Design Guidelines, to be implemented effective January 1, 2024.

3. Direct City Attorney to make non-substantive changes to the Outdoor Dining Deck Design Guidelines for the remainder of the extension period.

4. Direct staff to return to a future City Council meeting to propose a new outdoor dining deck fee.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City Council took action to support restaurants by directing staff to implement a temporary dining deck program for restaurants consistent with the COVID-19 pandemic relief bills (AB 61, SB 314, and SB 389). These bills allowed restaurants to operate under specific health and safety measures, inclusive of outdoor dining. Consequently, staff created an Outdoor Dining Deck Program, granting restaurants Temporary Use Permits (TUPs) for outdoor dining. A total of thirty (30) TUPs were issued citywide, eleven (11) of which were for outdoor dining within the public right-of-way along El Paseo and Highway 111 Frontage Road. The remaining TUPs were for private property. The program's popularity among both restaurant owners and patrons led to its extension into the following year.

By June 2021, when COVID-19 restrictions were lifted and indoor dining was once again permitted, fourteen (14) of the thirty (30) restaurants chose to remove their dining decks, leaving sixteen (16) in operation. On June 24, 2021, the City Council extended the existing TUPs for one (1) year to June 30, 2022. Additionally, the City Council instructed staff to collaborate with Prest Vuksic Greenwood Architects (PVGA) and the City's Architectural Review Commission (ARC) to develop and adopt a comprehensive design and safety manual, which was subsequently adopted in 2021 City Council then allowed for a specified timeframe to gain compliance and supported the program by offering $5,000 in grant monies to bring dining decks into compliance.

On October 14, 2021, at a regularly scheduled City Council meeting, staff requested an extension of TUPS through June 30, 2024, for dining decks that adhered to the adopted guidelines. This extension coincided with AB 61 (Gabriel, Chapter 651, Statues of 2021), a business pandemic relief measure that authorized the Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) to

Page 805 of 934 ends

City of Palm Desert
Approve Dining Deck Extension and Direct Staff to Investigate a Fee Schedule

Page 2 of 5 ends

expand license privileges in alignment with COVID-19 Temporary Catering Authorization (ABC218 CV19), which specifically includes temporarily expanding the licensed area of a qualified business to accommodate patrons while abiding by social distancing guidelines and directives.

This authorization was set to expire on July 1, 2024, mirroring the City Council-approved twoyear extension. On October 8, 2023, Governor Newsom signed California Assembly Bill AB 1217 (Rubio & Wiener) which extended the business pandemic relief from July 1, 2024, to July 1, 2026.

Dining Deck Funding
In 2020, the City Council established the Unite Palm Desert Economic Relief Program which provided a total of $59,165 to sixteen (16) restaurants to aid in the creation of outdoor dining areas. Out of these recipients, seven (7) restaurants continue to operate outdoor dining decks (see attached list). In conversations with staff, the restaurant owners who still operate dining decks have attested to their economic benefits and express their desire to continue participating in the program.

Outdoor Dining Deck Design Guidelines
While the program has proven advantageous to restaurants still utilizing their outdoor dining decks, other restaurant owners and residents have voiced concerns regarding safety, deck maintenance, and financial gains from the use of the public right-of-way. In response to these safety concerns, staff recommends making adjustments and additions to the Outdoor Dining Deck Design Guidelines, as summarized below:
- Insurance Requirements - Clearly outline of what certificates of insurance are required and reinforces that all documents must be always current. - Administration & Compliance section, which implements a quarterly dining deck inspection to ensure the decks are maintained at the highest safety standard. Also noting that any alterations or modifications must be submitted to the City’s Planning Department, prior to work commencing.
- Maintenance & Storage section which clearly identifies the responsibility of dining deck operators and gives clear expectations on how dining decks should be maintained.

Staff recommends that the amended guidelines, if adopted, go into effect on January 1, 2024, which would allow dining deck operators sufficient time to make any changes needed. However, the requirement to complete an updated TUP annually, as well as the revokable license agreement would not go into effect until July 1, 2024.

Additionally, to address private business owner’s financial gains from the use of public right-ofway, staff has explored implementing a fee schedule, similar to what other municipalities have established for their dining deck programs. Those fees are outlined in Table 1.

 Charge a fee for the TUP, as it is currently set at $0.  Charge a per square foot user fee for use of public right of way.

Either option would require the City Council’s adoption of a resolution or ordinance. If the City Council opts to explore either of the options, staff recommends that the fee go into effect on July 1, 2024, so as to not interfere with the current temporary dining deck program and to allow the proper time needed for a fee study.

Legal Review:

This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s office.

Strategic Plan:

The TUPs for dining decks fulfill priorities identified in the City’s Strategic Plan, as the following:
• Economic Development – Priority 4: “Expand and raise awareness of businessfriendly services in order to retain and attract business.” • Tourism and Marketing – Priority 1: “Improve access to Palm Desert and its attractions.
• to enhance the ease of lifestyle.”
• Transportation – Priority 1: “Create walkable neighborhoods and areas within Palm Desert that would include residential, retail, services and employment centers, and parks, recreation and open space to reduce the use of low occupancy vehicles.” • Land Use - Priority 4: “Create a mixed-use city core integrating shopping, dining, lodging, and housing.”
In addition, the allowance of dining decks addresses initiatives listed in the Economic Development Strategic Plan approved by the City Council in 2018:
• Revitalization of the El Paseo Key Commercial Corridor. • Facilitate long-term market strengthening of the El Paseo District. • Align City placemaking and other development plans and strategies with key Citydesignated infrastructure elements.

Appointed Body Recommendation:

Staff has spent the last three months meeting with dining deck operators, the Palm Desert Restaurant Association, the El Paseo Parking and Business Improvement District and the City’s Economic Development Sub-Committee to gather feedback. Below is a recap of the meetings and the recommendations.

Palm Desert Restaurant Association & Dining Deck Operators Recommendation:

According to the restaurant association, the dining decks have yielded economic advantages for their establishments, subsequently resulting in a boost to the City's revenue through increased sales tax collection. Therefore, the Association proposes that the City Council extend the City's dining deck program to align with the State's extension and maintain the existing outdoor dining deck design guidelines. Staff shared the proposed amendments to the outdoor dining deck design and dining deck operators were in acceptance. Staff also presented the consideration of a TUP or User fee. Operators recognized the rationale behind consideration of a modest fee for the use of the public right-of-way.

El Paseo Parking and Business Improvement District Recommendation:

On September 21, 2023, staff presented a summary report on the dining decks to the El Paseo El Paseo Parking and Business Improvement District (EPPBID) The EPPBID expressed its approval of the proposed amended guidelines and the updated requirements for annual TUP applications being submitted. The EPPBID was also in agreement with the consideration of a modest fee for the use of the public right-of-way.

Page 5 of 5 ends

Economic Subcommittee Recommendation:

The Economic Subcommittee agreed with Staff’s recommendation regarding extending the dining deck program to align with the State’s extension. Regarding the recommendation of a dining deck fee, the subcommittee recommends that the City Council consider adopting a TUP fee that would cover the cost of staff’s time to review, implement and inspect the dining decks.

Environment Review:

The proposed extension is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq.) pursuant to Section 1506(c)(3) of the State Guidelines, because the extension will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a “project,” as that term is defined in Section 15378 of the State Guidelines.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is currently no financial impact.

1.0 BACKGROUND
In response to COVID-19, the State of California, similar to many other States throughout the country, implemented various procedures to mitigate the effects of the pandemic. Some of these procedures included restriction or closure of indoor activities, limited capacity in closed buildings, and the introduction of more outdoor dining. Many cities were faced with varying challenges, including the need to dedicate public space for the use of outdoor activities.

The City of Palm Desert has taken an approach that allows outdoor dining through their “Outdoor Dining Deck” program. These extensions of the walkway allow for enhancement of the pedestrian environment, which can help make the street feel safer and more comfortable for people shopping, running errands, and accessing services in the City.

Typically, a Dining Deck is a built platform that extends out from the sidewalk to the width of the adjacent parking space. These decks can be used for an expanded dining area or an area to re-route pedestrian travel around expanded outdoor dining on the public sidewalk. These guidelines are intended to be a “living document” due to the rapid development of this program. The City of Palm Desert is focused on safety, accessibility, and drainage in the design of these decks. As new regulations and developments occur, these guidelines will undergo periodic revisions.

2.0 APPROVAL AND REVIEW STANDARDS
All dining decks must submit a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) Application annually for review and approval with the City’s Development Services Department. All submittals are to be prepared under the direction of and stamped by a licensed Architect or Civil Engineer.

Applicants shall submit drawings, construction methods, site plans, and identify materials used in their dining deck design. Once received, City staff will review the TUP application and submit materials for compliance with the Dining Deck Guidelines. A revocable licenses agreement must also be completed upon approval of the TUP.

Applicants will also need to provide the appropriate insurance coverage as required by the TUP. Insurance requirements are listed on the next page.

3.0 ADMINISTRATION AND COMPLIANCE
Beyond the licensing process, the extension of the program also entails a roll out of increased compliance standards. Staff will track and monitor dining decks more closely and implement quarterly dining deck inspections. Inspections will ensure that dining decks continue to be maintained at the highest safety standard. Staff will work with dining deck operators to bring any deficiencies to code within a reasonable amount of time. If the operator does not comply within the documented time, removal of the dining deck will be requested.

Any dining deck working to bring deficiencies up to standard will be inoperable until all deficiencies have been resolved and final approval from the City has been given.

Any alterations or modifications must be submitted to the City’s Planning Department, prior to work commencing.

4.0 SAFETY CRITERIA
Many factors go into selecting whether or not a business can implement a Dining Deck; however, these factors are routed in the general public’s welfare and safety while maintaining the ability for safe and efficient motoring. In addition, accessibility and drainage are two other key considerations. As time progresses, the City of Palm Desert maintains a progressive approach as to how to implement this program. This section documents what businesses can take advantage of the Dining Deck program. The City intends to allow this to continue beyond the COVID-19 restrictions and going forward into the future. Many aspects must be reviewed, as there are many departments of the City that must be involved.

Planning/Engineering
The Planning/Engineering Division implements the policies and objectives of the community that are set forth in the City of Palm Desert’s General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and Specific Plans. The Planning/Engineering Division also reviews new development proposals to ensure that the City’s design and development standards, and goals and policies are executed in the development of the City.

Building and Safety
The Building and Safety Division is dedicated to providing the highest level of code compliance, inspection services, and plan review to every architect, engineer, developer, contractor, business, and property owner that resides or works within our community. The Division strives to demonstrate fairness, equality, and the highest standard of professional ethics in providing our services while enforcing state construction laws and local ordinances that protect our citizens. The City of Palm Desert adopted its first building code in 1973.

Public Works
The Public Works Department is responsible for the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the City’s infrastructure including streets, sidewalks, storm drains, traffic signals, and landscaping. The department also oversees graffiti removal, engineering review of land development plans, and implementation of City-funded improvement projects.

Each of the above-listed departments has a vested interest in the development of the Dining Decks. Each business must submit a Temporary Use Permit application should they wish to participate in the program, and a copy of the permit has been attached in the appendices of this document. In addition, the application can be obtained from the City of Palm Desert’s website.

4.2 Barrier Design
The City of Palm Desert is committed to the safety of its pedestrians and motoring traffic, and for this reason, Dining Decks shall be protected using standard K-Rail available from construction supply businesses. These barriers can be composed of concrete or durable plastic materials intended to be filled with water to provide a solid barrier between the vehicular traffic and the dining decks. The only exception is no concrete barricade or K-Rail should be installed facing the travel direction. K-Rail are sometimes referred to as Jersey Barriers. At a minimum, barriers must be 36-42 inches high; not easily moved, altered, or stolen; stable and sturdy enough not to fall over or be pushed over (must withstand 250lbs of force).

4.2.1 PARALLEL PARKING AREA PROTECTION
In order to eliminate a blunt edge, the City of Palm Desert is recommending that an approximate 10-foot-long transition be created using K-Rail on the approach side of the dining deck. Parallel to the travel lanes, between the deck and the travel lane, a solid K-Rail barrier shall be provided. On the departure side of the deck, a single K-Rail shall be placed in order to prevent cars from backing up during a parking maneuver from colliding with the deck. As an additional safeguard, a parking wheel stop shall be provided, 4 feet from the last K-rail to further protect the dining deck from someone backing up into a parking stall. It is also an option to provide this on the approach side of the dining deck. All parking wheel stops should be bolted into the street. The City shall work with the applicant to obtain appropriate payments for future improvements once the dining deck is removed.

4.2.2 ANGLED PARKING AREA PROTECTION
Similar to the parallel parking area Dining Deck, the use of K-Rail shall be implemented to protect Dining Decks placed in angled parking stalls. Since these areas tend to have a greater depth, the decks should be placed at the end of the stall and outside of the traveled way. A conceptual layout has been provided in Figure 1.

4.2.3 DINING DECK SIGNAGE/MARKINGS
Dining decks should include a Type E Flexible Base Delineator on the upstream and downstream side of the k-rail. In addition, a single white reflective tab shall be placed in the middle of each k-rail parallel to the path of travel. The tab shall be installed such that vehicles approaching can see the tab.

4.3 PLATFORM THRESHOLD DESIGN
The Dining Deck platform serves as the foundation for the outdoor space and, as such, must be designed of durable materials that can withstand inclement weather and handle the wear and tear of the elements and regular pedestrian traffic.

The platform deck shall be designed in accordance with appropriate ADA and California Building Code Chapter 11B. As such, the City of Palm Desert recommends that the platform shall be level with the existing sidewalk (or within ¼”) and a gap no larger than ½” exists between the curb face and the proposed deck. Any vertical difference over ¼” shall be beveled with a 1:4 (25%) slope.

Platforms shall not be bolted to the existing pavement or concrete improvements. If bolting is proposed, the City shall work with the applicant to obtain appropriate payments for future improvement replacement.

Please refer to the Safety Guidelines for more detailed information about thresholds. If the deck is above the height of the curb, a code-compliant handicap-accessible ramp must be provided. All exposed deck edges are to be clad in a 2x wood material with a metal angle on the edge (see Diagram 3 below) or be totally clad in metal and finished with a paint color that meets with City staff approval.

4.4 DRAINAGE DESIGN
In general, most Dining Decks are constructed against an existing curb and gutter, and such local drainage should be taken into account. Impeding of the flow of surface water could cause ponding and potential flooding of the deck creating a hazard for pedestrians and the motoring public. As such, a 6” x 6” minimum clear gutter space must be provided along the entire length of the Dining Deck adjacent to the curb. Openings at either end may be covered with screens to prevent debris buildup underneath the deck and in the gutter.

4.5 ACCESSIBILITY
Dining decks shall be designed in accordance with current Americans with Disabilities Act and Chapter 11B of the California Building Code. This means that no sidewalk shall be interrupted at any time and a 5ft. clear travel path shall be maintained at all times.

4.6 MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• Business owners and outdoor dining deck operators shall keep the outdoor dining space clean and free of debris. Outdoor dining furniture, restaurant equipment, or appliances are not permitted to be stored in the outdoor dining space or in the public right-of-way.
• The outdoor dining area shall be kept in a good state of repair and maintained in a clean, safe, and sanitary condition at all times. Regular cleanup of trash and debris shall be the responsibility of the business owner.
• Advertising is not permitted. This includes Logos, advertising, and other branding is prohibited.
• The outdoor dining area shall maintain designated ingress and egress points and shall always keep them clear and accessible.
• All landscaping and potted trees shall be well-maintained and kept free of litter and debris.
• The City’s Planning Department must be contacted regarding any minor/maintenance issues that arise. Outdoor dining deck operators will have 48 hours to draft a plan and timeline that addresses all issues. • If the City determines that a dining deck is a safety hazard to either drivers or diners, the dining deck must be removed or repaired immediately. Any dining deck not repaired within 24 hours will be removed by the City and all charges associated with the removal will be the responsibility of the business owner.

5.0 AESTHETIC AND CONSTRUCTION GUIDELINES
The intent of the aesthetic and construction guidelines for outdoor dining decks is to establish design and construction methods that will result in decks that are both safe and aesthetically pleasing for the public.

The aesthetic and construction guidelines outline a minimum standard and are not intended to stifle creativity. All submittals will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and will be deemed acceptable (or not acceptable) based on architectural merit, safety, and compliance with these design guidelines.

Dining decks are meant to provide additional outdoor seating options for patrons and add another layer of interest to the street scene.

5.1 DECK CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS
Decks may use one of the following construction methods:

OPTION 1:

A 2x4, 2x6, or 2x8 pressure treated wood covered with a 5/8” minimum marine grade plywood subfloor. The plywood is to be screwed, not nailed, into the 2x members. The finish may be a non-slip tile or an outdoor carpet. An adequate street drainage system needs to be provided adjacent to the curb. This could be either an open space or metal tube below the deck, or wood framing adjacent to the curb could be raised off the street high enough to allow for stormwater to pass underneath it. See Diagram 1 below.

Diagram 1

Page 833 of 934 ends

AMENDED OUTDOOR DINING DECK DESIGN GUIDELINES
OCTOBER 26, 2023
OCTOBER 26, 2023 24
Ideally, the top of the deck would be at the same elevation as the top of the curb for an easy transition. This is preferred and encouraged. If the deck is at the same elevation as the curb, provide a suitable metal threshold. See Diagram 2 below.

Diagram 2
DIAGRAM 3

Page 834 of 934 ends

AMENDED OUTDOOR DINING DECK DESIGN GUIDELINES
OCTOBER 26, 2023
OCTOBER 26, 2023 25
OPTION 2:

Brick pavers over a sand sub-base, over gravel, over two layers of 3 mil vis queen. The top of the brick pavers are to be flush with the top of the curb. The edges of the deck, other than on the curb side, are to be finished with a steel angle or plate. Corners of the steel edging may be connected with steel angles (on the inside) and bolts. The vis queen should extend up the inside vertical face of the edges, except on the curb side. Street drainage is to be provided with a plate steel tube adjacent to the curb. The top of the tube is to be flushed with the top of the pavers and the top of the curb. This can also be designed so that the top piece is removable plate steel that drops into place. See Diagram 4 below.

DIAGRAM 4

4.0 AESTHETIC STANDARDS

4.0.1 VERTICAL ELEMENTS
As outlined in the Safety Criteria, K-rail or water-filled barricades shall provide the base for the vertical elements. These barriers shall be covered with acceptable materials so that they are not visible.

Acceptable cover materials include, but are not limited to metal, ceramic tile, stone, cementitious products, etc. Some of these materials may be applied over a boxed out subframe that fits over the K-rail, or water-filled barriers (see Diagram 5 below). Unlike Diagram 5 however, it is preferred that the entire barrier is covered with the finish material. The acceptability of any material is subject to review. This is because different materials have various levels of quality and attractiveness. They also can be applied in a variety of ways, some of which may be more attractive than others.

Page 835 of 934 ends

AMENDED OUTDOOR DINING DECK DESIGN GUIDELINES
OCTOBER 26, 2023
OCTOBER 26, 2023 26
The following vertical barrier materials would generally not be deemed acceptable: Vinyl pickets or lattice work, painted wood pickets, plastic sheets, fabrics.

DIAGRAM 5
Other possible vertical barrier options are 3-dimensional plate steel forms that could be exposed or clad with an acceptable finish material. These forms could be filled with soil and plant material with an appropriate drainage system to serve as a weighted barrier. Another option for these plate steel forms would be to fill them with gravel to a certain level and then top them off with tightly spaced plants in pots or plastic containers. The containers would need to be hidden below the top edge of the form so that only the plant material is visible.

See Diagrams 6 & 7 below.

DIAGRAM 7
Other “heavy” elements could be considered on a case-by-case basis, such as concrete forms (see Diagram 8 below) or large pots filled with soil.

DIAGRAM 8
Small openings between solid barriers may be permitted. These openings would need to be separated from the street with horizontal cable rail, steel dowels, or some other material that is deemed aesthetically attractive and acceptable by Staff. This material cannot have any space large enough to allow a 4” sphere to pass through (see Diagram 9). Material selection and methods of application will be reviewed by Planning Staff.

4.0.2 PLANT MATERIAL
Plant material is highly encouraged and recommended. Plant material could be natural or artificial and would be subject to approval by City Staff.

4.0.3 DECK MATERIALS
Brick pavers and framed plywood decks covered with non-slip tile or outdoor carpeting are acceptable.

Note, tiles and outdoor carpeting are acceptable as a material; however, it will be reviewed on an individual basis for aesthetic acceptability. Artificial turf is not acceptable.

4.0.4 OVERHEAD COVERS
Extremely long, continuous covers are discouraged. Covers should be broken up to provide a more “playful” composition and aesthetic quality.

Overhead Covers may consist of the following:

1. Portable umbrellas of a style and color that is deemed to be acceptable by City Staff.

See Diagram 10 below.

2. Lantern style lighting. See Diagram 14 below.

3. Artificial battery-operated candles. See Diagram 14 below.

DIAGRAM 14
Lighting should be 3000 to 2700 Kelvin or warmer.

Lighting brightness would be at the discretion of the Planning Staff, but generally, light sources should not cause an unpleasant glare and especially not to someone that is not in the deck area.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: November 16, 2023
PREPARED BY: Anthony J. Mejia, City Clerk
REQUEST: PALM DESERT REDISTRICTING 2023: PUBLIC HEARING #3

REGARDING REDISTRICTING OF CITY COUNCIL BOUNDARIES
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Conduct a public hearing to receive public input on district boundaries.

2. Select two (2) to three (3) “focus” maps and provide direction on any proposed revisions.

3. Receive and file a report on the redistricting process and permissible criteria to be considered to redraw district boundaries.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

On June 22, 2023, the City Council unanimously directed staff to take the necessary steps to transition to five single-member districts prior to the November 2024 Election and to eliminate use of Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) in future elections. On August 24, 2023, the City Council adopted the Redistricting Public Education and Outreach Plan.

The City is initiating a redistricting process to shift from the current two-district system to five single-member districts. The redistricting process will determine where the new City Council district lines will be drawn. The new districts will impact how voters elect City Council Members until the next redistricting process following the 2030 Census. The districts must be drawn using the 2020 census data and in compliance with the FAIR MAPS Act, which was adopted by the California legislature as Assembly Bill 849 and took effect January 1, 2020, and was updated by Assembly Bill 764 that takes effect January 1, 2024.

Under the amended Act, the City Council shall draw and adopt boundaries using the following criteria in the listed order of priority (Elections Code 21621):

1. Comply with the federal requirements of equal population and the Voting Rights Act.

2. Geographically contiguous.

3. Undivided neighborhoods and “communities of interest” (socio-economic geographic areas that should be kept together).

4. Easily identifiable boundaries.

5. Geographical compactness (do not bypass one group of people to get to a more distant group of people).

6. The districting body shall not adopt election district boundaries for the purpose of favoring or discriminating against an incumbent, political candidate, or political party.

Once the prioritized criteria are met, other traditional districting principles can be considered, such as:

1. Future population growth.

2. Respect voters’ choice/continuity in office (Due to the passage of Assembly Bill 764, this criterion may no longer be considered).

Page 861 of 934 ends

City of Palm Desert
Public Hearing #3 – Palm Desert Redistricting 2023

Page 2 of 9 ends

District 1 was population adjusted following the 2020 Census and resulted in a majority/minority voting district. Upon review of the City’s voting age population data, preserving District 1 as a majority/minority voting district (a district in which an identified minority comprises the majority of voting age population) is possible while remaining in compliance with the other mapping requirements noted above and the terms of the settlement agreement. Therefore, it is recommended that the City Council keep District 1 in its current configuration.

The purpose of this public hearing is to receive City Council and community input on the draft maps. The City Council is requested to select two to three “focus” maps for further consideration and may request revisions to any of the draft map(s). Any revised maps will be brought back at a fourth public hearing, scheduled for December 14, 2023.

Sequencing of Elections
When considering the sequencing of elections, the City Council must take into consideration public testimony related to the sequencing of elections and whether a particular area has a history of being under-represented and relatively low turnout and thus should be assigned a to the higherturnout Presidential 2024 election cycle. Secondarily, it is standard practice to match the district election years to the year of the resident officeholder. The sequencing of elections will not result in a shortened term for any officeholder.

Map 101, Public Submission
Map 101 was submitted by a member of the public. The author did not provide any comments related to developing this map. Analysis indicates the map exhibits a population deviation of

14.51% and is not geographically contiguous, which is not permitted under the FAIR MAPS Act.

The City has posted all draft maps to the City’s redistricting website: https://redistrictpd.org/, which includes an interactive review map tool which can be accessed by clicking here.

Future Projected Growth
In June 2023, City staff provided a map depicting residential projects already approved or under construction north of Fred Waring Drive. As previously noted, the City may consider future population growth when selecting a final map provided that federal and state criteria have been met. The below chart summarizes the number of units and projected population growth in each of the districts as represented on the draft maps eligible for adoption.

Map 102b/103b Map 104 Map 105 Map 109
Units Population Units Population Units Population Units Population District 5 4,200 8,904 4,200 8,904 2,457 5,209 1,488 3,155 District 4 69 146 69 146 69 146 3,130 6,635
District 3 418 886 418 886 2,161 4,581 69 146
Based on the above chart, Maps 105 and 109 achieve a greater balance in dividing future population growth in north Palm Desert. By balancing future population growth in the northern area there may be fewer boundary adjustments following the 2030 Census.

Note: The Merle Self-Help Lots A and B totaling 14 units/30 population was excluded from the above chart, as these properties are located in District 1. Population projections of 2.12 per unit are based on the total unit count multiplied by the average household size in Palm Desert per the US Census Bureau's data complied under the 2021 American Community Survey 5-year estimates.

Maps for Consideration

Page 907 of 934 ends

Future Population Growth
The City Council may consider future population growth
when selecting a final map, provided that federal and state criteria have been met.

Based on the above chart, Maps 105 and 109 achieve a
greater balance in dividing future population growth in north Palm Desert.

By balancing future population growth in the northern area there may be fewer boundary adjustments following the
2030 Census.

Good day Anthony,
Can you include this email for our council members? Mr. Gregg Akkerman submitted his map for the Five Districts. In my opinion, his submission is the most thoughtful and appropriate outline I have seen. I convey this for the following reasons:
* The boundaries are the most logical and easy to identify while other map proposals are more confusing
* Longstanding traditions for neighborhood identity are respected * All compliance requirements with regards to population and contiguousness are met
I look forward to the council's conversation on this on November 16th.

All the Best,

Subject: Comments of Draft Map 102b and 103b
Date: Wednesday, November 8, 2023 11:29:02 AM
Dear Palm Desert Council Members,
I believe the map I authored (#102/103) not only satisfies the expectations of the people of Palm Desert but is also fully compliant with the expressed requirements.

Simply put, Map 102/103 makes the most sense especially when compared to other submissions. This is accomplished because Map 102/103 primarily uses major roads as boundaries and respects local traditions as to what constitutes "North" Palm Desert (north of Country Club Drive) and "South" Palm Desert (south of HWY 111). The map also maintains the integrity of long-standing neighborhoods such as Palm Desert Country Club and the Lakes Country Club.

Pre-existing precinct boundaries are used throughout Map 102/103 except for along the east end of the northern District #5 in order to keep Palm Valley Country Club in one district and use Tamarisk Row Drive as a naturally smooth boundary to District #4 just south of I-10.

Furthermore, the Demographer created a small edit when correcting a glitch in their map template resulting in Map 102b/103b in which a small portion of land north of HWY 111 at Deep Canyon Rd. was added to the proposed "South" district. After researching other alternatives to resolve their glitch, I find their edit to be the simplest solution in order to maintain population balance.

In summary, I recommend the Council consider adopting Map 102/103 or, more likely, 102b/103b because the boundaries throughout the new districts are the most logical and easy to identify, longstanding traditions for neighborhood identity are respected, and all compliance requirements with regards to population and contiguousness are met.

Thank you,
Gregg Akkerman
Palm Desert resident and Chair of the Parks and Recreation Committee

Hi Anthony,
First my plan was to divide from 2 to 5 relatively equal districts by population without impacting district 1.

Anthony,
I would like to vote for map 102b/103b. After looking at the other maps, I feel this is the best map for several reasons. It takes into consideration the set boundaries on the city map, divides PD districts into fairly equal population, and complies with the legal documentation already established. The need for district representation by city council members is crucial to building and maintaining a great city environment. When residents have representation by a person who lives in that designated area, it makes a huge difference. I know because that is what I was accustomed to before I moved here.

Sincerely,
Debbie Green

Subject: Districts Roll-Out
Date: Friday, November 3, 2023 12:52:42 PM
Hi Anthony,
This message is from Ralph Perry. Greetings!
I have been thinking about the roll-out of the five districts. As you know, many residents invested a lot of communication and coordinating to promote the Five Districts.

As we know, the district decision was a contentious topic. That's why I believe it would be best to keep the rollout as easy for the public to understand as possible. To limit confusion with the new voting process, I suggest the districts should be grouped and rolled-out in numerical order.

For 2024 we could have Districts 1, 2 and 3 be on the ballot. Then in 2026 we could finish off with 4 and 5. I know this is up to debate and the city council's approval. At a future correct time, I plan on speaking at a council meeting regarding this.

Thank you for everything you have done and are currently doing. Many residents do appreciate and support you and your team for your thoughtful hard work.

Kind regards,
Ralph Perry

Given there is going to be an explosion of growth in north Palm Desert, I believe north Palm Desert should be divided into two districts. If possible, I think the properties along the mid valley channel should stay in a single district. For the remaining district in north PD, I think it should try to stay below Country Club Drive, as those north of Country Club have shared issues such as blow sand and new development.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: November 16, 2023
PREPARED BY: Eric Ceja, Director of Economic Development REQUEST: APPROVE THE SECOND AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT
AGREEMENT 98-1 BETWEEN THE CITY OF PALM DESERT AND
MARRIOTT OWNERSHIP RESORTS, INC.

RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve the Second Amendment to the Development Agreement (DA 98-1) between the City of Palm Desert and Marriott Ownership Resorts, Inc.

2. Direct the City Manager to execute the Second Amendment to the Development Agreement.

3. Direct the City Attorney to make necessary, non-monetary changes to the Second Amendment to the Development Agreement.

4. Authorize adjustment of $1,600,000 to Timeshare Mitigation Revenue Account Number 1100000-3122900.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 1998, the City of Palm Desert approved a Development Agreement (“DA”) with Marriott Ownership Resorts (“Marriott”), for the development of the Marriott Shadow Ridge Golf Club, located at the southeast corner of Monterey Avenue and Gerald Ford Drive. The agreement required the development of an 18-hole golf course with approximately 1,200 timeshare units.

Additionally, Marriott was to remit a facilities fee equivalent to $30 per week, per unit, and subject to increases in the consumer price index (CPI), to the City for a period of 20-years. The initial 20-year term of the DA has been extended through an amendment and expires in December 2030.

Legal Review:

This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s office.

Strategic Plan:

1. Land Use, Housing, and Open Space, Priority 2: “Facilitate the development of highquality housing for people of all income levels.”

2. Land Use, Housing, and Open Space, Priority 5: “Utilize progressive land use policies and standards to support ongoing and future needs.”
Project Description:

In 2020, Marriot approached the City and expressed that the timeshare market is saturated in the Coachella Valley and they would like to pursue other options including the development of single-family homes with the Shadow Ridge development. In late 2022, Marriott returned to the City with a proposal to convert roughly 18.75-acres of undeveloped land to 93 higher-end single family homes rather than the remaining timeshare units. City staff expressed concerns with the loss of revenue from the facilities fee as the new single-family homes would not be subject to

Page 923 of 934 ends

City of Palm Desert
Second Amendment to Development Agreement 98-1

Page 2 of 2 ends

the fee. In lieu of the additional facilities fee the second amendment to the Development Agreement anticipates:
- A one-time $1.6M payment to the City from Marriott upon sale of the property to Toll Brothers, Inc., for the development of the 93-homes. The new homes are situated in a zoning district which allows for short-term rentals. However, there are no current projections on how much additional TOT would be generated from this site.

The Second Amendment to the Development Agreement is limited to Marriott’s remittance of $1.6M to the City of Palm Desert upon the transfer of 18.75-acres to Toll Brothers. A separate Development Agreement will be processed with the planning entitlements that Toll Brothers brings forwards for consideration through a separate public hearing process. The Development Agreement for Toll Brothers also anticipates:
- The creation of a Community Facilities District (“CFD”) for the 18.75 acres. The developer projects that the CFD may generate $204,600+ to the City in year 1. The benefit of a CFD is that it will run in perpetuity and may pay for on-going public service costs such as streets, water, sewage, drainage, electricity, parks, and public safety to newly developing areas. CFD’s may also pay for infrastructure, but that is not in this plan.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in the City forgoing the facilities fee for the remaining timeshare units and accept the creation of a CFD for services; and one-time in-lieu fee of $1,600,000 to the General Fund.
