approving the issuance of the Bonds by CMFA for the benefit of Sinatra Family Housing, LP, a partnership of which Compass for Affordable Housing (the “Developer”) or a related person to the Developer is the general partner, to provide for the financing of the Project. Such adoption is solely for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of TEFRA, the Code, and California Government Code Sections 6500 et seq.

15.b APPEAL OF A DECISION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ADOPTING A

MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION, FINDING THE PROJECT EXEMPT FROM CEQA UNDER GUIDELINES SECTION 15183, AND APPROVING A

PRECISE PLAN FOR THE CATAVINA RESIDENTIAL PROJECT
Rosie Lua, Director of Development Services, narrated a PowerPoint presentation and responded to City Council inquiries.

Mayor Trubee opened the public hearing.

David Hubbard, attorney representing the applicant, stated the project is consistent with the City’s General Plan, zoning, and density standards, and therefore qualifies for a CEQA exemption under Guidelines Section 15183; asserted there are no significant or peculiar impacts beyond those addressed in the 2016 General Plan EIR, and that the mitigation measures imposed are precautionary and do not disqualify the exemption; requested the Council deny the appeal and find the project exempt under Section 15183.

Brian Flynn, attorney representing the appellant, requested the Council grant the appeal and remand the project to the Planning Commission, asserting the project does not qualify for a CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 exemption because the mitigation measures are not uniformly applied standards and were developed specifically for this project; argued an Environmental Impact Report is required under the fair argument standard, citing potential significant impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions, biological resources, and other environmental topics, and contended the Mitigated Negative Declaration is inadequate.

During rebuttal, Mr. Flynn reiterated his position that CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 does not provide a blanket exemption for projects consistent with General Plan density, and applies only where impacts are addressed by uniformly applied standards or regulations; emphasized that the Mitigated Negative Declaration identified impacts requiring mitigation, and asserted those measures are not uniformly applied citywide standards.

During rebuttal, Mr. Hubbard reiterated that the project qualifies for the CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 exemption because it is consistent with the City’s General Plan, zoning, and density standards, and there is no evidence of a significant and peculiar impact unique to the site; argued that the appellant’s focus on mitigation measures is irrelevant absent a showing of such peculiar impacts, and cited Section 15183(h) in support of that position; requested the Council deny the appeal and confirm the project’s exemption under Section 15183
Mayor Trubee closed the public hearing, there being no members of the public wishing to speak.

10 During the course of the discussion, Councilmembers stated the project is consistent with the City’s General Plan, zoning, and certified 2016 General Plan EIR, and that no substantial evidence was presented demonstrating a significant and peculiar impact unique to the project site; noted the project reflects the lowest allowable density within the applicable land use designation and is located on a previously developed site; stated that the Mitigated Negative Declaration adequately addressed potential impacts and that the requirements of CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 were satisfied.

RECITALS
This Third Amendment is entered into with reference to the following facts:

A. City and lntrawest Resort Ownership Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada (“IROC''), entered into a Development Agreement dated February 27, 1997, which Development Agreement was (i) recorded on August 29, 1997 as instrument number 315819 in the official records of the County Recorder for the County of Riverside, California, (ii) amended by that certain Amendment to Development Agreement (Development Agreement 06-03) (the “First Amendment”) dated as of May 10, 2007, and (iii) further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Development Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) dated as of September 10, 2015 (as so amended, and as assigned from time to time, the “DA”). All capitalized terms used herein without definition when first used shall have the meanings set forth in the DA.

B. The DA provided IROC with a vested right to develop certain real property in the City of Palm Desert (“IROC Property”) as a resort club and time shares (the “lntrawest Project”).

C. On or about October 12, 1998, IROC assigned and conveyed to Resort Ventures, L.P., a California limited partnership (“RV”) all of IROC's rights, title, interest and obligations under and to the DA and all related project documents.

D. On or about June 26, 2006, RV sold to Starwood all of its rights, title and interest in and to that portion of IROC Property described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Starwood Property”). The City gave its consent to the transfer from RV to Starwood of any and all rights and obligations under the terms of the DA to the extent that such rights and/or obligations arise from ownership of the Starwood Property.

E. On or about June 26, 2006, Starwood applied for and the City approved a conceptual master plan (hereinafter the “Starwood Master Plan”) which provides for the development of 300 two-bedroom lockoff time share units in 18 two- story, three- story, and four-story buildings and a one-story sales/clubhouse facility of approximately 40,000 square feet, along with recreational amenities (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Starwood Project”).
74 Ordinance No. 1442 Page 7
F. City and Starwood now desire to amend the DA to extend the term of the DA to temporarily extend the term of the DA for a period of six (6) months, to allow the parties additional time to discuss terms for a longer-term extension.

G. City has given notice of its intention to adopt this proposed Third Amendment, has conducted public hearings thereon pursuant to Government Code Section 65867 and Palm Desert Municipal Code Ordinances Nos. 341 and 589, has taken action in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, and has found that the provisions of this Third Amendment and its purposes are consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the City's General Plan and any applicable specific plan.

H. The City, by electing to enter into this Third Amendment, acknowledges that the obligations of the City hereunder shall survive beyond the terms of the present City Council members of the City, and that such action will serve to bind City and future Councils to the obligations thereby undertaken.

I. This Third Amendment and the consent of Starwood to each of its terms and conditions will eliminate uncertainty in planning and provide for the orderly development of the Starwood Property, eliminate uncertainty about the validity of exactions imposed by the City, and generally serve the public interest.

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and of the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. The original DA specified a term of fifteen (15) years. That original term was extended for an additional four (4) years by the First Amendment and by an additional ten (10) years by the Second Amendment. The parties now acknowledge that, through no fault of either party, the economic conditions in recent years have resulted in a much slower rate of development than was originally anticipated. Therefore, to allow the parties additional time to discuss terms for a longer-term extension of the DA, the parties agree that the term of the DA shall hereby be extended for an additional six (6) months beyond the term specified in the Second Amendment, making the new expiration date for the DA August 27, 2026. Nothing herein shall be construed as obligating the City to grant any further extension of the DA beyond August 27, 2026.
75 Ordinance No. 1442 Page 8

2. Except as specifically amended by the First Amendment, Second Amendment and this Third Amendment, the DA shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its original terms and conditions, which are hereby restated and incorporated herein by reference.

3.3 Governing Law. This Third Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.

3.4 Reliance on Counsel/Entire Agreement. In executing this Third Amendment, no Party has relied on any inducements, promises, or representations by any other Party or its attorney, other than those set out in this Third Amendment. This instrument constitutes the entire, integrated understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and there are no other prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements or understandings except as expressly set forth herein.

3.5 Severability. Each and every provision of this Third Amendment is and shall be construed as a separate and independent covenant and agreement. If any term or provision of this Third Amendment or the application thereof shall to any extent be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Third Amendment, or the application of such term or provision to circumstances other than those to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected hereby, and each term and provision of this Third Amendment shall be valid and shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law.

SUBJECT: RATIFICATION OF LETTER SUPPORTING ASSEMBLY BILL 1708 (SOLACHE) – HHAP PATHWAYS FOR CITIES ACT
RECOMMENDATION:

Ratify the issuance of the letter supporting Assembly Bill 1708 (Solache) - Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Pathways for Cities Act.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

On February 11, 2026, the City submitted a letter supporting Assembly Bill 1708 (Solache), which relates to Round 7 of the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Program.

AB 1708 would require Continuums of Care receiving HHAP Round 7 funds to provide a 30-day application period exclusively for cities with populations under 300,000 and to allocate funding to eligible smaller jurisdictions that meet specified requirements. To qualify, a city must adopt a resolution committing to its regionally coordinated homelessness action plan following a public hearing, maintain a compliant housing element, adopt a local encampment policy consistent with state guidance, and demonstrate prior actions supporting HHAP objectives.

Support of AB 1708 does not obligate the City to apply for funding or to adopt any additional policies at this time. The procedural requirements described above would apply only if the City later elects to pursue HHAP Round 7 funding.

In accordance with Resolution No. 2025-020, Mayor Trubee and Mayor Pro Tem Pradetto reviewed and approved the letter in advance of formal ratification by the City Council.

Legal Review:

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

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no financial impact associated with this action.

California State Assembly
1020 N Street, Room 5110
Sacramento, CA 95814
RE: AB 1708 (Solache) HHAP Pathways for Cities Act — SUPPORT Dear Assembly Member Solache:

The City of Palm Desert is pleased to support AB 1708 (Solache), which would create a defined opportunity for cities with populations under 300,000 to apply for Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Program funding through their local Continuum of Care (CoC).

Under current law, HHAP provides direct funding to counties, large cities, and CoCs.

Cities with fewer than 300,000 residents do not receive direct allocations and may access funds only if selected as subrecipients. AB 1708 would require CoCs, prior to allocating funds to other subrecipients, to accept applications from cities with populations under 300,000 that meet specified eligibility requirements for a limited period.

Palm Desert participates in regional efforts to address homelessness and works with Riverside County, the local CoC, and nonprofit service providers. The City also allocates local resources to address homelessness-related impacts in the community.

Providing cities with fewer than 300,000 residents with a formal opportunity to apply for HHAP funding would allow Palm Desert to pursue additional resources to support local and regional efforts, subject to eligibility and award criteria.

For these reasons, the City of Palm Desert respectfully supports AB 1708 (Solache).

Sincerely,
Evan Trubee
Mayor, City of Palm Desert

ASSEMBLY BILL No. 1708
Introduced by Assembly Member Solache
February 4, 2026
An act to add Section 50246 to the Health and Safety Code, relating to housing.
legislative counsel’s digest
AB 1708, as introduced, Solache. Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention program: round 7.

Existing law establishes the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) program for the purpose of providing jurisdictions with grant funds to support regional coordination and expand or develop local capacity to address their immediate homelessness challenges, as specified. Existing law provides for the allocation of funding under the program among continuums of care, cities, counties, and tribes in 6 rounds, with rounds 1 to 5, inclusive, administered by the Interagency Council on Homelessness and round 6 administered by the Department of Housing and Community Development, as provided. Existing law establishes round 7 of the program and states the intent of the Legislature to enact future legislation that specifies the parameters, as specified.

Existing law, effective July 1, 2026, appropriates $500,000,000, as specified, provided that these funds be disbursed in accordance with specified requirements, including that funds from this appropriation be disbursed to a city, county, tribe, or continuum of care for round 7 of the program after a declaration by the director of the department, in consultation with the Director of Finance, that the department has substantially completed its initial disbursement of round 6 funds to the city, county, tribe, or continuum of care and that the city, county, tribe,

99 83
or continuum of care has obligated at least 50% of its total round 6 award. Existing law requires the department, during the 2025–26 fiscal year, to prepare to administer round 7 of the program with the goal that initial round 7 disbursements will be available to grantees meeting the statutory provisions for disbursement beginning September 1, 2026, as specified.

This bill would require a continuum of care receiving funding pursuant to round 7, as described above, to allocate funds to a smaller jurisdiction, defined as a city with a population under 300,000. The bill would require a smaller jurisdiction, in order to be eligible for funding, to, among other things, adopt a resolution, as specified, have a compliant housing element, and have adopted a local encampment policy, as described.

The bill would require a continuum of care to accept applications for funding in accordance with specified procedures.

Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.

State-mandated local program: no.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
line 1 SECTION 1. Section 50246 is added to the Health and Safety line 2 Code, to read:
line 3 50246. (a)  A continuum of care receiving funding pursuant to line 4 paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 50245 shall allocate line 5 funds to smaller jurisdictions pursuant to this section. line 6 (b)  In order to be eligible to receive funding pursuant to this line 7 section, the smaller jurisdiction shall comply with each of the line 8 following:
line 9 (1)  (A)  Adopt a resolution that does both of the following:
line 10 (i)  Commits to participating in, and complying with, the line 11 regionally coordinated homelessness action plan. line 12 (ii)  Directs the mayor to sign the memorandum of understanding line 13 that reflects the regionally coordinated homelessness action plan. line 14 (B)  (i)  Prior to adopting the resolution described in this line 15 paragraph, the smaller jurisdiction shall hold a public hearing to line 16 consider the regionally coordinated homelessness action plan. line 17 (ii)  At least 30 days prior to the public hearing, the smaller line 18 jurisdiction shall post on its internet website the proposed, line 19 approved, and amended regionally coordinated homelessness action line 20 plan.
line 21 (2)  Have a compliant housing element.
99 AB 1708 — 2 —
84 line 1 (3)  Have adopted a local encampment policy consistent with line 2 administration guidance.
line 3 (4)  Demonstrate how its past actions, programs, and line 4 appropriation of funds have served the objectives and goals of the line 5 adopted regionally coordinated homelessness action plan and the line 6 intent of the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention line 7 program to prevent and expeditiously reduce unsheltered line 8 homelessness through homelessness prevention activities. line 9 (c)  A continuum of care shall accept applications for funding line 10 in accordance with the following procedure:
line 11 (1)  During an initial period of 30 days, for round 7 funding, a line 12 continuum of care shall accept only applications from smaller line 13 jurisdictions determined to be eligible pursuant to subdivision (b). line 14 (2)  (A)  The continuum of care shall evaluate the applications line 15 submitted pursuant to paragraph (1) and award funds in compliance line 16 with all round 7 rules and regulations.
line 17 (B)  The continuum of care shall prioritize applications in which line 18 a smaller jurisdiction agrees to utilize round 7 funding in line 19 partnership with a nonprofit, another smaller jurisdiction, or other line 20 private organization eligible for round 7 funding. line 21 (3)  If funding remains after the awards made pursuant to line 22 paragraph (2), the continuum of care shall accept and evaluate line 23 applications from other eligible applicants.
line 24 (d)  For purposes of this section, “smaller jurisdiction” means a line 25 city with a population under 300,000.

APPLICATION)
RECOMMENDATION:

Ratify the issuance of the letter supporting the City of Indian Wells’ Proposition 1 grant application to the Coachella Valley Mountains Conservancy for the Low Flow Channel Capital Improvement Project.

On February 11, 2026, the City submitted a letter supporting the City of Indian Wells’ application for Proposition 1 funding through the Coachella Valley Mountains Conservancy for improvements to the Whitewater River Channel low-flow facility.

The Whitewater River Channel is a regional flood control and stormwater conveyance facility serving communities throughout the Coachella Valley. The proposed project involves the reconstruction of an approximately 5,800-foot concrete low-flow channel within the City of Indian Wells to improve stormwater conveyance and sediment management. The total estimated project cost is $2,000,000. The City of Indian Wells is requesting $1,200,000 in grant funding from the Coachella Valley Mountains Conservancy.

In accordance with Resolution No. 2025-020, Mayor Trubee and Mayor Pro Tem Pradetto reviewed and approved the letter in advance of formal ratification by the City Council.

RE: Support for City of Indian Wells Low Flow Channel Project (Proposition 1) Dear Board of Directors:

On behalf of the City of Palm Desert, I am pleased to express our support for the City of Indian Wells’ application for Proposition 1 grant funding through the Coachella Valley Mountains Conservancy for the Low Flow Channel Capital Improvement Project.

The Whitewater River Stormwater Channel is a critical regional asset that provides flood protection and stormwater conveyance for communities throughout the Coachella Valley.

Improvements to this system within Indian Wells will deliver measurable benefits to neighboring jurisdictions by strengthening the overall performance and resilience of the shared watershed.

If funded, the proposed project would:
• Improve water quality by reducing sediment transport and channel scouring through better-managed low-flow conditions.
• Enhance erosion control by stabilizing channel slopes and protecting adjacent regional infrastructure.
• Support long-term watershed health by maintaining natural hydrologic function consistent with the California Water Action Plan.

The City of Palm Desert values regional collaboration on infrastructure investments that protect public safety, improve environmental outcomes, and promote sustainable water management. We view this project as an important component of those shared objectives and respectfully urge the Conservancy’s favorable consideration of this request.

Sincerely,
Evan Trubee

MEETING DATE: February 26, 2026
PREPARED BY: Thomas Soule, Public Affairs Manager
SUBJECT: APPROVE A FISCAL YEAR 2025/26 EL PASEO PARKING AND

BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT MID-YEAR BUDGET

ADJUSTMENT AND AMEND THE FG CREATIVE MARKETING
SERVICES CONTRACT.

RECOMMENDATION:

1. Appropriate $50,000 to El Paseo Business Improvement District Account No. 2714491- 4321500 as part of the FY 2025-26 Midyear Review.

2. Approve Amendment No. 7 to Contract No. C43370 with FG Creative to increase the FY 2025-26 not-to-exceed contract amount from $250,000 to $325,000.

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 7 and make any necessary nonmonetary changes to the agreement.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

The El Paseo Parking and Business Improvement District (EPPBID) was established in 1984 pursuant to the California Streets and Highways Code. The District is funded through annual business assessments levied on El Paseo merchants based on gross sales. Assessment revenues are restricted for qualified activities that benefit the district, including marketing and promotional efforts.

Because assessment revenues fluctuate annually based on reported sales, the District’s budget varies from year to year and cannot be projected with precision at the time of budget adoption.

Historically, the EPPBID Advisory Board adopts a baseline annual budget and then evaluates revenues and available fund balance mid-year to determine whether additional marketing expenditures are appropriate. When mid-year adjustments are approved, corresponding amendments to the marketing services contract are required to align contract authority with the Board-approved budget.

The City entered into a three-year agreement with FG Creative effective July 1, 2022, with two one-year extension options. Amendments to the agreement have historically been administrative in nature and tied to annual baseline budget adjustments and mid-year Board-approved increases. These amendments reflect pass-through advertising, media buying, and production costs funded by BID assessments and have not increased the agency’s compensation.

For FY 2025-26, the following actions have occurred:
• Amendment No. 6 approved the first one-year contract extension at the original contract amount of $250,000.

• The City Council adopted the FY 2025-26 budget, which included $275,000 for EPPBID marketing services.
• At its November 20, 2025 meeting, the EPPBID Board approved $40,000 in additional advertising expenditures.
• At its December 18, 2025 meeting, the Board approved an additional $10,000 for print advertising and social media content production.

Together, the Board’s actions constitute a $50,000 mid-year budget adjustment. City Council approval is required to appropriate these funds and to amend the contract accordingly.

Amendment No. 7 will:
• Align the contract authority with the City Council-adopted FY 2025-26 baseline budget; and
• Incorporate the $50,000 mid-year budget adjustment approved by the EPPBID Board.

Approval of Amendment No. 7 will increase the FY 2025-26 not-to-exceed contract amount to $325,000. The additional authority reflects Board-approved marketing expenditures funded by BID revenues and does not increase the agency’s compensation.

Legal Review:

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

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Approval of this action will incorporate a $50,000 adjustment into the FY 2025-26 EPPBID operating budget. Revenues are available in Fund Balance for this purpose. The adjustment will accommodate the Board approved services to be included as part of Contract Amendment No. 7 with FG Creative.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2026
PREPARED BY: Martin Alvarez, Director of Economic Development SUBJECT: EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY AND

THE CLUB MCC (MARRAKESH COUNTRY CLUB) FOR PROPERTY

KNOWN AS THE HAYSTACK/PORTOLA SITE
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Authorize the City Manager to execute a six-month Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) between the City and The Club MCC (Marrakesh Country Club) for property located at the northwest corner of Portola Avenue and Haystack Way, and to execute any related documents necessary to effectuate this action.

2. Authorize the City Attorney to make any necessary non-monetary changes to the ENA.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

The City of Palm Desert owns a 1.24-acre undeveloped property located at the northwest corner of Portola Avenue and Haystack Way, adjacent to Marrakesh Country Club. The property was acquired in 2006 from the Coachella Valley Water District to preserve open space adjacent to the existing Haystack storm drain channel. The property was recently subdivided into two parcels: the eastern 0.91-acre parcel is proposed for sale, while the western 0.33-acre parcel is proposed for retention by the City as open space.

Surplus Land Act and Disposition:

To facilitate the disposition of the site, the Property is subject to the requirements of the California Surplus Land Act (SLA), administered by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The SLA requires appropriate notice, the first right of refusal to affordable housing developers, engagement with eligible entities, and documentation of proposals received.

A 60-day Notice of Availability for the Property was issued on March 12, 2025. No affordable housing proposals were submitted, and staff subsequently obtained a Notice of Determination from HCD allowing the City to proceed with the sale of the property, contingent upon recording a covenant on the property title requiring that any future housing development of 10 or more units include a minimum of 15 percent affordable housing.

Exclusive Negotiation Agreement:

Staff was contacted by the Marrakesh Country Club Homeowners Association (HOA) with a proposal to acquire the property at the appraised value of $210,000. The HOA is requesting approval of a six-month Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) to evaluate the feasibility of developing additional recreational amenities and open space. 161
City of Palm Desert
Haystack/Portola Site Exclusive Negotiation Agreement

The proposed six-month ENA would allow the Marrakesh HOA to:
 Conduct property due diligence
 Prepare a conceptual site plan for review by the HOA Board and membership  Negotiate and Purchase and Sale Agreement, including a project schedule for entitlements and close of escrow
Staff recommends approval of the six-month ENA, with an option for a six-month extension at the City Manager’s discretion if needed to facilitate the sale of the property.

Legal Review:

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

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to the City with the execution of this ENA.

1 EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATING RIGHTS AGREEMENT
THIS EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATING RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of February 26, 2026 (“Effective Date”) by and between the City of Palm Desert, a California charter city (“City”) and Marrakesh Country Club, a California non-profit mutual benefit corporation (“MCC”). City and Homeowner’s Association are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Parties.”

R E C I T A L S
A. The City is the owner of certain real property constituting approximately

0.91 acres, located within the City limits located on the West Side of Portola Avenue and North of Haystack Road, identified as Riverside County Assessor Parcel Number 630-250-052, as more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Property”). The Property is vacant, unimproved land.

B. The City has fulfilled its obligations under the Surplus Land Act, and based on subsequent outreach, selected the MCC as the entity with which to enter into exclusive negotiations for the disposition of the Property.

C. MCC has proposed acquiring the property to develop ancillary uses to the MCC.

D. The purpose of this Agreement is to establish the procedures and standards for the negotiation of a potential Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA”) that would address: (i) the disposition of the Property facilitated by the City, to the MCC, and (ii) MCC’s development of the Property as a recreation and event lawn, garden and / or pickleball courts (the “Project”). As more fully set forth below, this Agreement in itself does not obligate the City or the MCC to execute a PSA, or obligate the City to convey the Property, or any portion thereof, to MCC, nor does it grant MCC the right to develop the Project on the Property.

A G R E E M E N T
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Incorporation of Recitals. The Recitals set forth above, and all defined terms set forth in such Recitals and in the introductory paragraph preceding the Recitals, are hereby incorporated into this Agreement as though set forth in full.

2. Good Faith Efforts to Negotiate. The Parties shall use their best efforts to negotiate a PSA that will describe the terms and conditions governing the conveyance of the Property by the City to MCC, or an Affiliate (as defined below) of MCC approved by the City, and the development of a Project on the Property by an Affiliate of the MCC, 167
2 approved by the City. The Parties shall diligently and in good faith pursue such negotiations. This Agreement does not impose a binding obligation on the City to convey any portion of, or interest in, the Property to MCC, nor does it obligate City to grant any approvals or authorizations required for a Project (including the PSA).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, MCC expressly acknowledges that any agreement(s) resulting from the negotiations contemplated hereby shall become effective only if the conveyance agreement is approved by the City Council following compliance with all applicable notice and hearing requirements of the City and compliance with all other applicable requirements of law, including without limitation the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). As used in this Agreement, an “Affiliate” of a person or entity shall mean an entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with such person or entity, and shall include, but shall not be limited to Marrakesh Community Association or a limited partnership in which the MCC is a member of a general partner of such limited partnership. The term “control” as used in the immediately preceding sentence shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the entity in question, whether through ownership, voting securities, contract, or otherwise.

3. MCC’s Exclusive Right to Negotiate with City. City agrees that it will not, during the Term of this Agreement (as defined below), directly or indirectly, through any officer, employee, agent, or otherwise, solicit, initiate or encourage the submission of bids, offers or proposals by any person or entity with respect to the acquisition of any interest in the Property or the development of the Property, and City shall not engage any broker, financial adviser or consultant to initiate or encourage proposals or offers from other parties with respect to the disposition or development of the Property or any portion thereof. Furthermore, City shall not, directly or indirectly, through any officer, employee, agent or otherwise, engage in negotiations concerning any such transaction with, or provide information to, any person other than MCC and its representatives with a view to engaging, or preparing to engage, that person with respect to the disposition or development of the Property or any portion thereof. The parties further agree and acknowledge that the City shall not facilitate the disposition or transfer of the Property to any third party during the Term.

4. Term. The Term shall commence on the Effective Date, and shall terminate six (6) months thereafter, unless extended or earlier terminated as provided herein (the “Term”). The Term may be extended for up to a maximum of one hundred eighty (180) additional days upon the mutual written agreement of MCC and City’s City Manager if the City Manager determines in his sole and absolute discretion that the Parties have made substantial progress in their negotiations to merit such extension. The Parties may, with City Manager approval, agree to additional extensions. If a PSA has not been executed by the City and MCC (or an entity related to MCC and reasonably approved by the City) by the expiration of the Term (as the Term may have been extended pursuant to this Section), then this Agreement shall terminate, and neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except such rights and obligations that expressly survive termination. If a PSA is executed by the City and the MCC (or an Affiliate of MCC approved by the City), this Agreement shall 168
3 thereupon terminate, and all rights and obligations of the Parties shall be as set forth in the executed PSA.

5. Good Faith Deposit. In consideration for this Agreement, MCC has, prior to City’s execution of this Agreement, provided to City a cash deposit in the amount of Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000.00) (the “Good Faith Deposit”). During the Term, City shall invest the Good Faith Deposit for purposes of earning interest thereon.

If the Parties enter into a PSA, the Good Faith Deposit shall be disposed of as specified in the PSA. If this Agreement is terminated without execution of a PSA for any reason, then the Good Faith Deposit and any interest earned thereon, less any amounts expended to reimburse City for City Costs as provided in Section 6 below, shall be refunded promptly to MCC. If this Agreement is terminated as a result of an Event of Default, then the Good Faith Deposit and any interest earned thereon shall be disposed of as more fully provided in Section 12.4. If at any time prior to the Parties entering into a PSA, City Costs (as defined in Section 6) are incurred in an aggregate amount that equals or exceeds the amount of the original Good Faith Deposit, the MCC shall replenish the Good Faith Deposit with the amount necessary to cover the City Costs, and no further City Costs shall be expended until MCC provides City with a cash deposit to cover the amount of the City Costs. If MCC declines to provide such additional cash, within fifteen (15) business days of request therefore from the City, the City may elect to terminate this Agreement, and neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except such rights and obligations that expressly survive termination.

6. Costs and Expenses. City shall be entitled to draw upon the Good Faith Deposit and apply such draws to reasonable expenses incurred by the City during the Term.

The Good Faith Deposit may be used to cover costs that City incurs in connection with the proposed Project and negotiation with MCC regarding agreements for development of the Property. Expenses shall be limited to third party vendors including without limitation, expenses incurred for financial feasibility studies, design analyses, appraisals, environmental analyses, title examination, reasonable legal fees, and consulting fees (collectively, “City Costs”). City shall notify MCC monthly in writing of the amount drawn by City to pay City Costs. The notice shall include copies of all invoices paid and accounting details from the Good Faith Deposit.

7. Termination.

7.1 Termination by Mutual Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by the mutual written consent of the Parties. In the event of such termination, subject to Section 7.4, neither Party shall have any further rights against or liability to the other under this Agreement.

7.2 Termination by City for Cause. City shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon City’s good faith reasonable determination that MCC is not negotiating diligently and in good faith. City shall exercise such right by delivering not less than ten (10) business days’ advance written notice to MCC describing the nature of MCC’s default and the termination date. If MCC does not commence to cure the default and 169
4 resume negotiations in good faith within such ten (10) business day period, as applicable, City may terminate this Agreement effective as of the termination date stated in the notice. In the event of termination by the City pursuant to this Section 7.2, subject to Section 7.4, neither Party shall have any further rights against or liability to the other under this Agreement.

7.3 Termination by MCC. MCC shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon MCC’s good faith reasonable determination that City is not negotiating diligently and in good faith. MCC shall exercise such right by delivering not less than ten (10) business days’ advance written notice to City describing the nature of City’s default and the termination date. If City does not commence to cure the default and resume negotiations in good faith within such ten (10) business day period, MCC may terminate this Agreement effective as of the termination date stated in the notice. In addition, MCC shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, effective upon ten (10) days’ written notice to City, if MCC determines, in the exercise of MCC’s sole discretion, that the results of MCC’s investigation of the Property are unsatisfactory with respect to MCC’s desired development activities or if MCC is unable to obtain other necessary approvals, rights or interests. In the event of termination by the MCC pursuant to this Section 7.3, subject to Section 7.4, neither Party shall have any further rights against or liability to the other under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event MCC chooses to terminate this Agreement as the result of an uncured material default by the City where the City has acted in bad faith, the MCC shall be entitled to seek reimbursement of the Good Faith Deposit and any additions made by MCC or its Affiliate to the Good Faith Deposit prior to the date of the termination of this Agreement.

7.4 Effect of Termination. Upon the expiration of the Term as such may be extended, or upon the earlier termination of this Agreement, without the Parties having successfully negotiated and executed a PSA, this Agreement shall forthwith be void, and there shall be no further liability or obligation on the part of either of the Parties or their respective officers, employees, agents or other representatives; provided however, the provisions of Section 9.1 (Studies), Section 9.2 (Access; Indemnity), Section 10 (Confidentiality), Section 12.4 (Liquidated Damages), and Section 14.7 (Indemnification) shall survive such termination. In no event shall either Party have the right to seek an award of damages as a result of the termination of this Agreement.

8. Compliance with CEQA. The Parties acknowledge that the Project description set forth in this Agreement is preliminary in nature and shall be described in further detail in the PSA to be negotiated during the Term. The Parties acknowledge that development of the Property for the Project will require the grant of discretionary land use entitlements subject to the City’s normal review and approval process, that the Project must comply with CEQA, and that nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall be interpreted as the grant of any approvals for development of the Project or the Property, or the modification or waiver of any City procedures or requirements. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the City retains discretion to (i) require modification of the Project as City may, in its discretion, determine to be reasonably necessary to comply with CEQA, (ii) select other feasible alternative and/or 170
5 impose mitigation measures to avoid or minimize significant environmental impacts; (iii) balance the benefits of the Project against any significant environmental impacts prior to taking final action, if such impacts cannot otherwise be avoided; and/or (iv) determine not to proceed with the Project.

The Parties acknowledge that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a commitment by the City to facilitate the City to enter into an agreement for conveyance of any interest in the Property or for the development of the Project. In addition, the Parties acknowledge that the final form of any agreement governing the development of the Property may contain matters not covered in this Agreement, and the provisions herein are not intended to exclude or preclude any other issues that may arise during negotiations.

MCC acknowledges that the Project must be evaluated under CEQA, as required by the terms of the City’s approval of the PSA. If City determines that CEQA compliance requires preparation of either a Mitigated Negative Declaration (“MND”) or an Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) for the Project, then i) MCC will select the consultant for preparation of the MND/EIR, subject to the City’s reasonable approval; and ii) Developer will pay City’s costs for environmental review, including the cost of City’s MND/EIR consultant. MCC’s obligation to pay such costs shall be in addition to MCC’s obligation to pay City expenses pursuant to Section 6.

MCC further acknowledges that the City owns the fee interest in the Property and the disposition of the Property is subject to the approval of the City Council.

9. Developer’s Studies; Right of Access; Deliverables.

9.1 MCC’s Studies. During the Term of this Agreement, MCC may prepare, at MCC’s sole expense, any studies, surveys, plans, specifications and reports (“MCC’s Studies”) MCC deems necessary or desirable in MCC’s sole discretion, to determine the suitability of the Property for the Project. Such studies may include, without limitation, title investigation, relocation analyses, marketing, feasibility, soils, seismic and environmental studies, financial feasibility analyses, and design studies. MCC shall provide to City without representation or warranty, copies of all reports, test results, studies, analyses, cost estimates, and documents prepared by third-party consultants for or commissioned by MCC with respect to the Project or the Property within ten (10) business days following their completion; provided however, MCC shall not be obligated to provide proprietary or financial information. MCC agrees to include in all contracts for the preparation of any of MCC’s Studies a provision that will permit City to have the right to use and rely upon each study and report. MCC’s obligation to provide reports and studies pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. The City shall promptly deliver to MCC, upon MCC’s request, existing written information and plans regarding the Property in the City’s possession or immediate control.

9.2 Right of Access. City will use best efforts to procure from the City, concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, sufficient rights for MCC, including its 171
6 employees, agents, assigns and contractors, to reasonably access the Property for the purposes of inspection, environmental assessments, soils testing, and similar work.

MCC shall be responsible for obtaining any additional rights of access to the Property from third parties that may be necessary to prepare MCC’s Studies. The City may impose reasonable limitations on access to the Property and may require MCC to provide the City with proof of insurance in compliance with the City’s requirements prior to performance of studies on the Property. The City’s advanced written approval shall be required for any invasive testing. MCC agrees that unless the City agrees otherwise in writing, MCC shall repair, restore, and return the Property and all improvements located thereon to their condition immediately prior to any such testing at MCC’s sole cost and expense, excluding ordinary wear and tear or damage or destruction by acts of God. MCC shall at all times keep the Property free and clear of all liens and encumbrances related to MCC’s inspection activities on the Property or otherwise within MCC’s control.

MCC shall indemnify, defend, and hold the City and their respective elected and appointed officers, officials, employees, consultants, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all liability, loss, cost, claim, demand, action, suit, legal or administrative proceeding, penalty, deficiency, fine, damage and expense (including without limitation reasonably attorney’s fees and of litigation) (all of the foregoing, collectively “Claims”) arising out of MCC’s and MCC’s agents, employees, consultants, representatives and contractor’s entry on the Property or otherwise arising out of the exercise of this right of access granted to MCC hereunder, provided that MCC shall have no obligation related to Claims resulting from the Indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct, or MCC’s mere discovery of information regarding the Property, or a pre-existing condition on the Property, as long as none of MCC’s or MCC’s agents, employees, consultants, representatives and contractor’s actions or omissions cause an exacerbation of such pre-existing condition.

MCC’s defense and indemnity obligations pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

9.3 Deliverables. MCC shall provide to City the deliverables identified in Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, consistent with the schedule set forth in Exhibit B, unless such other dates are agreed to in writing by MCC and City Manager.

10. Confidentiality of Information. While desiring to preserve its rights with respect to treatment of certain information on a confidential or proprietary basis, MCC acknowledges that City will need sufficient, detailed information about the proposed Project to make informed decisions about the content and approval of the PSA. City will work with MCC to maintain the confidentiality of proprietary information subject to the requirements imposed on City by the Public Records Act (Government Code Section 6250 et seq.). MCC acknowledges that City may share information provided by MCC of a financial and potential proprietary nature with third party consultants who have been contractually engaged to advise City concerning matters related to this Agreement and/or the PSA and to City Council members as part of the negotiation and decisionmaking process. If this Agreement is terminated without the execution of a PSA, City 172
7 shall return to MCC any confidential information submitted by MCC under this Agreement. If any litigation is filed seeking to make public any information MCC submitted to City in confidence, City and MCC shall cooperate in defending the litigation if MCC elects not to make public the information in question. MCC shall pay City's reasonable costs of defending such litigation if MCC elects not to make public the information in question and shall indemnify City against all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees awarded to the plaintiff in any such litigation.

11. Execution of Definitive Agreement. The City shall have no legal obligation to grant any approvals or authorizations for the Project prior to City approval of the Project and related agreements following compliance with CEQA and all other applicable requirements of law.

12. Defaults and Remedies.

12.1 Default. In the event either Party breaches its obligations under this Agreement, the non-defaulting Party shall give written notice of a default to the defaulting Party specifying the nature of the default and the required action to cure the default. If a default remains uncured ten (10) days for monetary defaults and twenty (20) days for nonmonetary defaults (subject to such longer period as may be reasonably necessary so long as the defaulting party has commenced a cure within such twenty (20) day period and is diligently prosecuting such cure to completion) after receipt by the defaulting Party of such notice, the non-defaulting Party may exercise the remedies set forth in Subsections 12.2, 12.3, and 12.4 below, as applicable.

12.2 Remedies for City Default. In the event of an uncured default by City hereunder, MCC’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and to seek reimbursement in accordance with Section 7.3. Upon such termination, MCC shall be entitled to repayment of the remaining Good Faith Deposit and any interest earned thereon, as further provided in Section 5 and, neither Party shall have any further right, remedy or obligation under this Agreement; provided however, any obligation under a specific provision of this Agreement for a Party to pay or reimburse the other Party for a cost or to provide indemnity and defense shall survive such termination. Except as expressly provided herein, neither Party shall have any liability to the other for damages or otherwise for any default, nor shall either Party have any other claims with respect to performance under this Agreement. Each Party specifically waives and releases any such rights or claims they may otherwise have at law or in equity.

12.3 Remedies for MCC Default. In the event of an uncured default by MCC, City's sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and to retain the Good Faith Deposit and any interest earned thereon as further set forth in Subsection 12.4 below.

Following such termination, neither Party shall have any right, remedy or obligation under this Agreement; provided however, any obligation under a specific provision of this Agreement for a Party to pay or reimburse the other Party for a cost or to provide indemnity and defense shall survive such termination.

12.4 Liquidated Damages. IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION DUE TO MCC'S DEFAULT AS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION 12 ABOVE, SUBJECT TO ALL 173
8 APPLICABLE NOTICE AND CURE PERIODS, THE GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT (OR, AS

APPLICABLE, SUCH PORTION THEREOF WHICH HAS NOT BE DRAWN AGAINST

BY THE CITY FOR CITY COSTS) MAY BE RETAINED BY CITY AS LIQUIDATED

DAMAGES AND AS ITS PROPERTY WITHOUT ANY DEDUCTION, OFFSET OR RECOUPMENT WHATSOEVER. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE DAMAGES

SUFFERED BY CITY BY REASON OF A MCC DEFAULT WOULD BE UNCERTAIN

AND THAT SUCH DAMAGES WOULD INVOLVE SUCH VARIABLE FACTORS AS

THE CONSIDERATION THAT ANOTHER PARTY WOULD PAY FOR THE
PROPERTY; THE EXPENSES OF CONTINUING THE OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL

OF THE PROPERTY AND OF IDENTIFYING OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES AND NEGOTIATING WITH SUCH PARTIES; POSTPONEMENT OF TAX REVENUES TO THE COMMUNITY; AND THE FAILURE OF CITY TO EFFECT ITS PURPOSES AND

OBJECTIVES WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, RESULTING IN ADDITIONAL IMMEASURABLE DAMAGE AND LOSS TO CITY. IT IS IMPRACTICABLE AND

EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE AMOUNT OF SUCH DAMAGES TO CITY, BUT

THE PARTIES ARE OF THE OPINION, UPON THE BASIS OF ALL INFORMATION

AVAILABLE TO THEM, THAT SUCH DAMAGES WOULD APPROXIMATELY EQUAL

THE AMOUNT OF THE GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT HELD BY CITY AT THE TIME OF

THE DEFAULT OF MCC, AND THE AMOUNT OF SUCH GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT

SHALL BE PAID TO CITY UPON ANY SUCH OCCURRENCE AS THE TOTAL OF ALL

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR ANY AND ALL SUCH DEFAULTS AND NOT AS A PENALTY. IN THE EVENT THAT THIS PARAGRAPH SHOULD BE HELD TO BE

VOID FOR ANY REASON, CITY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO THE FULL EXTENT OF DAMAGES OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY LAW. MCC AND CITY SPECIFICALLY

ACKNOWLEDGE THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION BY THEIR
SIGNATURES HERE:

MCC:

13. City Rights Following Expiration or Termination. Following expiration or termination of this Agreement, unless a PSA is executed by the Parties, City shall have the absolute right to pursue facilitation of the disposition and development of the Property in any manner and with any party or parties it deems appropriate; provided, however, nothing herein shall be deemed to preclude or disqualify MCC from responding to future requests for qualifications and/or proposals, if any, that City may publicly issue to qualified firms with respect to development of the Property.

14. Miscellaneous.

14.1 Assignment. The qualifications and identity of MCC are of particular concern to City. It is because of those unique qualifications and identity that City has entered into this Agreement with MCC. Accordingly, except as provided below, MCC may not assign its rights under this Agreement to any other person or entity, without the prior written approval of City. Any purported voluntary or involuntary assignment of MCC’s exclusive negotiation rights without such City written approval shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MCC may assign its rights under this Agreement to its Affiliate, Marrakesh Community Association, or to a limited liability company or 174
9 partnership in which MCC or an affiliated entity: (a) is a managing member or general partner; (b) is responsible for managing the day-to-day entitlement and development activities of such entity; and (c) has a controlling interest in such entity, or to a tax credit partnership formed for the Project.

14.2 Notices. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all notices to be sent pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in writing and sent to the Parties at their respective addresses specified below or to such other address as a Party may designate by written notice delivered to the other parties in accordance with this Section. All such notices shall be sent by: (i) personal delivery, in which case notice is effective upon delivery; (ii) certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, in which case notice shall be deemed delivered on receipt if delivery is confirmed by a return receipt; or (iii) nationally recognized overnight courier, with charges prepaid or charged to the sender’s account, in which case notice is effective on delivery if delivery is confirmed by the delivery service. In addition, notice may be provided by electronic transmission (email), as long as notice is also sent via (i), (ii) or (iii) above. If notice is sent via electronic transmission (email), notice shall be deemed delivered upon transmittal. Any notice given by email shall be considered to have been received on the next business day if it is received after 5:00 p.m. recipient’s time or on a non-business day.

This Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

14.8 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof shall, to any extent, be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such term or provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without invalidating or rendering unenforceable the remaining terms 176
11 and provisions of this Agreement or the application of such terms and provisions to circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable unless an essential purpose of this Agreement would be defeated by loss of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

14.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the Parties with respect to such subject matter.

14.10 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument executed by the Parties or their permitted successors in interest.

14.11 Successors and Assigns; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, this Agreement is not intended to benefit and shall not run to the benefit of or be enforceable by, any other person or entity other than the Parties and their permitted successors and assigns.

14.12 Captions; Interpretation. This Agreement shall be interpreted as though prepared jointly by the Parties. Titles and captions are for convenience of reference only and do not define, describe or limit the scope or the intent of this Agreement or any of its terms.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

On August 20, 2023, Tropical Storm Hilary caused widespread flooding and damage throughout the Coachella Valley, including impacts to stormwater infrastructure in Palm Desert. In the aftermath of the storm, the City undertook extensive cleanup, repair, and drainage system maintenance efforts to restore affected areas and improve long-term flood resilience.

One of the facilities affected by the storm is the Tamarisk Row Retention Basin, which is owned by the Palm Desert Regency Estates Homeowners Association (Regency Estates HOA).

Damage to the basin’s spillway has created a risk to the adjacent public street and requires repair to reduce the potential of street closure during future storm events.

As part of the post-storm response, the City has provided up to $200,000 in funding to multiple property owners and homeowners’ associations impacted by Tropical Storm Hilary to complete similar storm-related drainage and infrastructure improvements. The proposed action is consistent with that approach and is intended to address a specific public infrastructure concern.

On January 5, 2026, staff met with representatives of the Regency Estates HOA, who confirmed their willingness to allow the City access to the property for the limited purpose of completing the proposed repair and restoration improvements. Staff recommended entering into a Right-ofEntry Agreement for Temporary Access and Remediation to authorize City access to the private property to perform such repairs and restoration.

Approve Agreement for Regency Estates HOA

The City will utilize up to $200,000 in available funds to repair the damaged spillway. If funding and site conditions allow, staff will also prioritize addressing percolation issues within the basin and removing excess vegetation to improve overall basin function. City crews may also provide in-kind services, including vegetation removal, to supplement contractor work and maximize the effectiveness of available funding.

Upon execution of the agreement, staff will coordinate implementation of the repair and restoration improvements and continue to work with the Regency Estates HOA throughout the duration of the project.

In addition to the Agreement, to facilitate potential emergency repair work to the Tamarisk Row Retention Basin if needed in the future on a temporary basis, Regency Estates HOA will grant to the City an emergency access easement allowing the City the right, but not the obligation, to enter the property and perform emergency maintenance and repair of the retention basin.

Acceptance of the emergency access easement will be needed by the City.

On February 17, 2026, staff met with the Regency States HOA Board to present the proposed scope of work for their review and formal consideration. Following the presentation, the Board voted and approved the proposal.

Legal Review:

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

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funds are available for the repair and restoration of the Tamarisk Row Retention Basin are included in the approved FY 2025-26 Financial Plan and Capital Improvement Project (CIP) List under Account No. 4004159-4219100 (CP–Disaster/Emergency). The improvements will be made by a contractor currently under contract with the City for an amount not to exceed $200,000. Therefore, this action will result in no additional impact on the General Fund.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: February 26, 2026
PREPARED BY: Chris Escobedo, City Manager
SUBJECT: COVE COMMUNITIES SERVICES COMMISSION AREAS IDENTIFIED

FOR ENHANCED COLLABORATION
RECOMMENDATION:

Receive and file report on Cove Communities Services Commission areas identified for enhanced collaboration.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 1981, the cities of Indian Wells, Palm Desert, and Rancho Mirage formed the Cove Communities Services Commission to provide responsible, well-coordinated, and effective fire, police, and paramedic services. The Commission is comprised of six elected city council members, two from each participating city.

Although each Cove city now contracts public safety services individually, the Cove Communities Services Commission remains actively engaged in regional programs and projects that benefit all three cities. These efforts include collaboration in public safety, senior services, and recreational services.

In 2025, Commissioners expressed interest in identifying opportunities for enhanced regional collaboration. At the October 22, 2025 meeting, staff presented potential focus areas. City Managers from each city subsequently reviewed the concepts and presented refined recommendations at the January 21, 2026 meeting. These items were approved by the Cove Communities Services Commission. The following areas were identified:

Affordable Housing
The City of Indian Wells is pursuing state legislation that would allow a portion of its affordable housing funds to be used toward the construction of student-focused affordable housing at the California State University, San Bernardino – Palm Desert Campus, in exchange for Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) credit.

Additionally, the three cities are exploring the formation of a RHNA subregion. Establishing a subregion would provide a formal framework for joint planning and the creation of affordable housing units across city boundaries, offering greater flexibility and regional coordination in meeting state housing requirements.
