CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JULY 28, 2022 PRESENTATIONS
SUBJECT: PRESENTATIONS, PROCLAMATIONS AND OTHER NOTICES
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
SUMMARY:
This agenda item is intended to provide written materials associated with presentations , proclamations, and other notices. This is a new process to try and preserve the value of highlighting information that may be pertinent or interesting to the community while reducing the time spent verbally presenting that information during the Council Meeting.
BACKGROUND:
City Council held a Strategic Visioning Session in November 2021. The Visioning Session focused on two broad areas: priority setting and process improvement. One of the goals Council wanted to pursue was to focus time spent during City Council meetings to address strategic priorities and other direct City business. This is especially important as Council only has approximately 10-12 hours per month during Council Meetings to advance City business.
Since the Visioning Session, City Council has gained efficiency by implementing a number of process improvements including adding monthly Study Sessions, eliminating City Council Subcommittees, and adjusting the order of the Agenda for City Council Meetings. During the Agenda Development section of the July 14, 2022, Council Meeting, Council Members discussed ways to make additional changes to the way presentations are conducted.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Staff is introducing a new method for conducting presentations, proclamations, and other notices in an attempt to increase efficiency while also preserving the interest in conveying important information to the community. This new method contemplates having presenters provide written materials on their items in advance, to be included as attachments to a template staff report. In some ways this will enhance the presenter’s ability to communicate a message to Council and the public because materials will be included in the packet of information with all other agenda items. In most cases, the written materials should suffice as an alternative to a verbal presentation. However, in Presentations - 1
cases where a verbal presentation is strongly desired, presenters would be invited to participate in public comment, limited to 2 minutes. These changes would mean a meeting where 5 presentations and proclamations could take up to an hour, should take between 0 –10 minutes.
Thi
s approach would also allow Council members to consider limited instances when certain presentations are critically important and need additional time. For instance, if Council were receiving a presentation on important public health information, Council could elect to identify the item for a verbal presentation during Agenda Development at a preceding meeting, to pull an item from consent for further discussion, or briefly highlight an item when the consent agenda is considered. Again, this method may provide a good balance between getting important information to Council and the Community, defaulting to written presentations while allowing limited critical items to be highlighted in different ways.
Council can provide direction on this approach during Agenda Development at any future Council Meeting.

Find that the City Council has considered the circumstances of the state of emergency during a proclaimed state of emergency, and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, and as a result, the Palm Springs City Council and all of Palm Springs Board, Commission, and Committee meetings may be held by videoconference, in accordance with AB 361.

SUBJECT: FINDINGS TO CONDUCT CITY COUNCIL AND BOARD, COMMISS ION, AND COMMITTEE MEETINGS VIRTUALLY UNDER ASSEMBLY BILL 361 FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: M onique
Lomeli, Interim City Clerk
RECOMMENDATION:
Find th
at the City Council has considered the circumstances of the state of emergency during a proclaimed state of emergency, and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, and as a result, the Palm Springs City Council and all of Palm Springs Board, Commission, and Committee meetings may be held by videoconference, in accordance with AB 361.
BACKGROUND:
Gover
nor Newsom’s Executive Orders N-29-20 and N-35-20, which relaxed some of the Brown Act’s teleconferencing provisions during the COVID -19 pandemic, expired on September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed AB 361, which amends sections of the Brown Act to allow legislative bodies to more easily hold teleconference meetings during a state of emergency.
In order to utilize these provisions of the Brown Act, the City Council must find that it has considered the circumstances of the state of emergency, and either:
(1) S
tate or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to
promote social distancing as a result of the proclaimed state of emergency, or
(2) The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the
members to meet safely in person.
The Ci
ty Council must make these findings every 30 days for as long as the City is conducting virtual meetings under AB 361.
City Staff and the City Attorney’s Office believe that these findings can be made. Although the Governor’s Executive Orders dealing with virtual meetings have expired, the original state of emergency for COVID -19 is still in effect. In addition, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the County of Riverside continue to recommend social distancing as a result of the COVID-19 state of emergency.
Item 1A - 1
City Council Staff Report

Virtual Meetings Under AB 361
As such, City S taff and the City Attorney recommend that the City Council make these findings, including at every Council meeting, in order to meet the “every 30 days ” requirement of AB 361. These findings would apply to all City Boards, Commissions and Committees, so they are able to hold virtual meetings under AB 361.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There i
s no fiscal impact associated with this action.

to
provide
strong
support
and
is
not
concerned.
Chair
Jakway
noted
that
Sheet
105
calls
for
a
proposed
new
bar
where
the
trailer
sits
but
it is
not
shown
on
the
elevation
and
questioned
if they
plan
to
build
the
bar
as
part
of
this
work.
Mr.
Flannery
responded
they
will
leave
the
airstream
trailer
downstairs
and
will
not
submit
plans
for
the
construction
of
a
bar
for
at
least
six
months.
He
explained
the
type
of
shading
material
noting
that
the
upstairs
will
be
done
first
and
then
downstairs. Member
Doczi
questioned
if additional
material
will
be
added
to
create
a
sense
of
place
for
the
airstream
trailer.
Mr.
Flannery
thinks
it's
a
great
idea
and
could
use
planters
on
the
west
end
to
screen
the
trailer.
He
agreed
that
vegetation
would
look
better
than
wood to
screen
it.
Mr.
Dozci
suggested
a
combination
of
planters
and
elongated
planters
could
be
used
to
create
a
setting.
Member
Comments:
Chair
Jakway
said
he
likes
the
trailer
and
doesn't
think
it
needs
to
be
hidden.
He
suggested
a
trellis
on
the
upper
level
and
eliminating
one
bay
of
the
trellis
that's
closest
to
the
street;
noting
that
right
now
there's
three
bays
and
if
the
smaller
bay
was
removed the
facade
of
the
building
would
step
back
a
bit.
Mr.
Jakway
said
if
you
take
Member
Doczi's
idea
of
a
planter
on
the
railing
that
faces
Palm
Canyon
and
replace
it
with
a
continuous
a
wooden
planter
with
a
small
quantity
of
plants;
it
won't
block
the
views
of
the
mountain.
Chair
Jakway
complemented
the
applicant
because
he's
taken
an
eyesore
and
has
made
it
into
a
significant
part
of
the
community
and
wished
more
developers
would
do
this.
Member
Walsh
concurred
with
Chair
Jakway
and
does
not
agree
with
staff
comments
about
the
need
to
screen
the
trailer.
This
helps
the
whole
challenge
of
the
second
floor
commercial;
if there's
something
of
interest
it tends
to
draw
your
interest
up
there.
He
thinks
it
would
be
a
good
idea
to
figure
out
how
the
shade
structure
works
since
the
fabric
and
wind
are
a
chronic
design
challenge.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
agrees
with
the
previous
comments
that
have
been
made.
Chair
Jakway
asked
the
Members
what
they
think
about
removing
the
first
bay
closest
to
the
street
so
that
the shade
structure
steps
back
a
little
bit.

Member
Walsh
said
he's
a
bit
hesitant
about
the
west
elevation
with
the
lower
angle
and
the
hot
afternoon
sun
shining
directly
on
the
front
of
the
building.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
said
he's
been
on
that
rooftop
and
it's
a
substantial
size
that
even
removing
that
front
bay
there
is
enough
space.
Jakway,
seconded
by
Rotman

shall

to
add
variation
to
the

Planner
Rubalcava
presented
the
proposed
project
as
outlined
in
the
staff
memorandum. Member
Thompson
verified
if
the
bar
underneath
the
sign
has
up
lighting
on
the
sign.
Planner
Rubalcava
responded
no,
there
are
only
three
lights
on
the top
of
the
building
which
were
approved
years
ago.
JIM
CROSS,
Best
Signs,
applicant,
stated
the
client
requested
a
simple,
basic
sign
and
described
the
proposed
sign,
noting
limitations
with
historic
designation.
Mr.
Cross
said
the
sign
color
is
consistent
with
the
building
trim
and
shutters.
Vice Chair
Rotman
said
the
sign
is
very
simplistic
and
seems
a
little
unimaginative.
Mr.
Rotman
questioned
if
the
sign
text
is
part
of
their
logo.
Mr.
Cross
responded
yes,
it's
consistent
with
their
branding.
Member
Doczi
concurred
with
Vice
Chair
Rotman
and
expressed
concern
with
the
lack
of
dimensionality
and
the
location
is
in
proportion
to
windows
above
rather
than
above
the
doors
below.

Architectural
Review
Committee
Minutes
May 16,
2022
City
of
Palm
Springs
Vice
Chair
Rotman
concurred
with
Member
Doczi
and
thinks
it
would
be
more
interesting
if
they
kept
the
same
font
with
individual
letters
and
not
on
the
orange
background.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
suggested
they
take
the
ARC
comments
and
return
with
changes
or
work
with
staff
on
a
resubmittal.
Mr.
Cross
responded
the
sign
panel
is
placed
on
that
location
is
existing
and
because
of
the
building's
historic
designation
the
panel's
location
was
approved.
He
explained
the
panel
is
made
of¾"
plywood.
Mr.
Cross
said
he
does
not
disagree
with
the
ARC
but
to
move
the
sign
panel
would
cause
issues
with
the
surface
and
wall
repair
would
need
to
be
done.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
asked
if
it
would
be
possible
to
pin
mount
the
letters,
to
pull
them
away
from
the
surface
to
give
more
dimensionality
to
the
sign.
Mr.
Cross
responded
yes,
it would
be
possible
and
indicated
the
applicant
would
be
the
person
to
ask
about
branding
and
fonts.
The
applicant
was
having
technical
difficulties
connecting
to
the
Zoom
meeting
and
the
ARC
moved
on
to
the
next
item.
The
Committee
returned
to
discussion
on
Item
2. DESTINY
DORMINY,
applicant,
explained
the
proposed
sign
font
is
used
inside
the
store
and
on
merchandise.
Ms.
Dorminy
was
available
for
questions
from
the
ARC
members. Mr.
Rotman
asked
if the
applicant
would
consider
reversing
the
text
and
adding
thicker
letters
that
are
pin-mounted.
The
applicant
responded
yes
to
both
questions.
Mr.
Doczi
asked
if
it's
possible
to
remove
the
existing
light
bar
(below
the
sign)
and
place
the
sign
panel
in
the
area
that's
more
proportional
to
the
door.
Assistant
Planning
Director
responded
staff
could
work
with
the
applicant
to
incorporate
lighting
within
the
sign. Doczi,
seconded
by
Walsh
to
approve,
subject
to
revisions
discussed
by
the
ARC
with
final
design
review
by
the
subcommittee
(Members
Doczi

Minutes
May

City
of

Assistant
Planner
Rubalcava
presented
the
proposed
project.
ROBERTO
OCEGUERA,
Elemental
Architecture,
project
manager,
described
the
uses
on
each
floor,
ADA
requirements
and
proposed
improvements,
and
the
roof
shade
structure
materials
and
lighting.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
questioned
the
dimensions
on
the
parking
areas,
the
condenser
screening
on
the
roof
and
the
material
of
the
stair
enclosure
roof.
Mr.
Oceguera
responded
that
the
lot
and
parking
area
is
very
narrow
and
that
the
rooftop
panels
can
be
extended
to
screen
the
mechanical
units.
He
also
noted
the
roof
material
would
be
dark
to
match
the
building.
In
response
to
Vice
Chair
Rotman's
question
regarding
the
second-floor
windows
and
outside
speakers,
Mr.
Oceguera
said
the
windows
are
fixed
and
there
are
no
outside
speakers
proposed.
Member
Doczi
suggested
adding
planter
areas/diamonds
to
the
nose
of
the
parking
areas.
Mr.
Oceguera
said
they
would
explore
adding
that
to
the
parking
lot.
Rotman,
seconded
by
Doczi
to
approve,
subject
to
enhancing
parking
lot
with
planters
at
nose
of
parking
stalls
and
no

speakers
on

himself
due
to
a
business-related
conflict
of
interest.
Principal
Planner
Robertson
presented
the
project
as
outlined
in
the
staff
memo.
Mr.
Robertson
described
the
changes
and
showed
comparisons
of
the
previously

and
the

In

to
Member
Thompson's
question,
Mr.

the
applicant
never
indicated
that
would
be
the
case.
However,
according
to

City
of

was
started
on
the
site
and
the
developer
could
complete
the
project
as
originally
approved. Vice
Chair
Rotman
said
Lot
3 and
29 appear
to
be
problematic
and
questioned
if
the
layout
was
reviewed
by
public
works.
He
also
questioned
the
number
of
parking
spaces
proposed.
Mr.
Robertson
said
the
layout
was
reviewed
by
the
City
and
there
are
specific
limitations
on
the
driveway
depths.
Mr.
Robertson
also
said
they
are
providing
more
parking
spaces
than
the
original
approval.
Member
Walsh
expressed
concern
with
the
number
of
potential
AD
Us
and
parking.
BRIAN
FOSTER,
applicant,
said
they
added
three
additional
parking
spaces
off
of
Rosa
Parks
and
others
inside
the
existing
development
and
the
driveway
depths
will
be
deeper
in
most
cases.
Mr.
Foster
said
most
lots
will
not
accommodate
a
detached
ADU
and
further
described
the
changes
made
to
the
project,
noting
the
scale
of
the
homes
remains
the
same.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
requested
the
applicant
go
through
the
elevation
changes.
Mr.
Foster
described
the
overhang
and
recessed
windows;
and
said
the
roof
deck
will
be
thicker
to
address
Title
24,
drainage
and
adequate
interior
ceiling
heights.
He
clarified
the
window
recesses
are
about
18 to
24 inches
and
the
roof
overhangs
are
roughly
3 feet. Mr.
Thompson
suggested
positioning
the
overhang
between
the
transom
window
and
the
sliding
doors.
Mr.
Foster
said
that
was
modeled
and
the
applicant
chose
not
to
locate
the
overhang
there
due
to
the
impact
to
the
mountain
views.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
said
there
is
a
missed
opportunity
for
the
outdoor
space
based
on
the
lack
of
rear
access
in
the
yard
with
the
location
of
the
bathtub
on
Plan
1. He
questioned
the
use
of
the
plant-ans
proposed
on
the
garages which
were
not
addressed
in
the
latest
revisions.
On
Plan
2A,
the
wrap-around
element
could
be
removed,
for
example. Member
Thompson
suggested
the
overhangs
would
be
better
in
a
lower
location.
He
questioned
the
floating
V
element
on
the
front
elevation
of
Plan
1 A;
he
thinks
it
still
needs
work.
Member
Lockyer
agreed
that
the
heights
seem
too
high.
Member
Walsh
said
the
plan
lacks
integrated
shading
element
to
address
large
glass
doors/windows.
He
suggested
flush-framed
glazing
up
to
ceiling
to
address
desired
ceiling
heights.
Vice
Chair
Rotman
thinks
the
tack-on
overhangs
was
only
a
minor
change
and
still
has
concern
with
design
of
front
element
on
Plan
1A.
He
still
thinks
the
ceiling
heights
are
5 Item 1C - 10

APPLICATION TO CONSTRUCT A 6,785-SQUARE FOOT
WAREHOUSE FACILITY ON A 13,099-SQUARE FOOT
UNDEVELOPED PARCEL LOCATED AT 3581 WEST DEL SOL ROAD
(CASE NO. 3.4322 MAJ). (AR)
Assistant Planner Rubalcava presented the proposed warehouse facility as outlined in the staff report.
Commissioner Aylaian referenced the findings and questioned if the massing is consistent with the surrounding buildings. Assistant Planner Rubalcava verified the massing is consistent with the surrounding buildings. Commissioner Aylaian also noted finding #6 does not address that the design meets the existing grid in accordance with the circulation plan and verified there will be no extension road and existing grid will be used. Ms. Rubalcava confirmed the existing grid will be used.
WILLIAM DUMKA, said this building is similar to the adjacent building and explained his client was the general contractor for that building and they're looking forward to working with him and going through the process.
Hirschbein, seconded by Aylaian, to conditionally approve with changes to findings 4 and 6, and a recommendation that the Architectural Review Committee review the fa9ade and landscape design.

FOR
A
DETERMINATION

Associate
Planner
Kikuchi
presented
the
request
that
a
pet
grooming
use
is
consistent
with
other
by-right
uses
in
the
C-1AA
zone.
Vice
Chair
Robertson,
in
reference
to
page
2 of
the
staff
report,
questioned
how
the
applicant
was
able
to
obtain
a
building
permit
and
completed
interior
tenant
improvement
work.
Ms.
Kikuchi
explained
the
Planning
Division
reviewed
the
building
permit
for
an
interior
demolition
but
didn't
receive
the
revision
to
the
permit
that
included
the
proposed
use;
and
attention
to
this
matter
was
brought
up
when
the
business
owner
visited
the
permit
center
for
their
business
license
clearance.
DALE
LONG,
applicant,
said
he
appreciates
the
Commission's
consideration
to
allow
the
determination
of
the
building
and
is
looking
forward
to
an
approval.
Commissioner
Miller
agreed
that
the
use
is
similar
to
a
beauty
salon
for
a
human
and
wholeheartedly
welcomed
such
a
use
in
that
shopping
center.
Vice
Chair
Roberts
concurred
with
Commissioner
Miller
and
thinks
this
is
a
good
use
and
it's
a
company
that
is
opening
their
second
business.
Miller,
seconded
by
Aylaian
to
approve
the
determination
that
a
pet
grooming
use
is
consistent
with
other

uses

RECOMMENDATION:

Item 1G
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JULY 28, 2022 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: UPDATE ON STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
SUMMARY:
This agenda item is a receive and file item to present progress and anticipated future tasks for City Workplans associated with City Council Strategic Priorities.
RECOMMENDATION:
Provide direction to Staff as appropriate.
BACKGROUND:
City Council held two Visioning Sessions on November 20 and 30, 2021. The purpose of
the Visioning Sessions was to 1) establish priorities for the next year and beyond; and 2) identify targeted process improvements to make the work of the organization more efficient and effective. Staff presented a broad overview of Strategic Priorities at the January 13, 2022, City Council meeting. Staff presented the first approximately 4- month Workplan to City Council on February 22, 2022. This meeting, Staff will present a report card on the first 4-month Workplan Summary and a new Summary for the period between approximately August 2022 through November 2022.
This Workplan period is particularly important given upcoming City Council elections.
Council may want to target certain policy initiatives currently underway to be completed before the transition to newly elected Council Members. Similarly, there may be other policy initiatives that are expected to take well beyond current Council Member terms where Council may choose to defer until after new Council Members are seated.
Since this agenda item is a receive and file, City Council can use the Agenda Development portion of each regular City Council meeting agenda to suggest additions, subtractions, or other changes to the Workplan Summary.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Included with this staff report is Attachment A , a Report Card of progress from the last Workplan period. This document contains all the task-level work presented to Council at Item 1G - 1
City Council Staff Report
July 28, 2022 – Page 2
Update on Strategic Priorities and Workplans
the February 22 meeting with the addition of notes indicating what tasks have been completed and what tasks remain incomplete. The Report Card also provides notes for context on certain tasks where appropriate and indicates notable additional tasks that Council initiated outside of the Workplan.
During the Council meeting, S taff will primarily focus on the new Workplan and will only provide a summary review of the Report Card. However, it’s worth noting that a thoughtful review of the Report Card reveals context that may be helpful in future work planning. It can be especially useful to evaluate the connection between the effort put toward a certain policy initiative and the outcome of that effort. That kind of evaluation often reveals the Pareto Principle or 80/20 Rule, which suggests we often get 80% of our results from 20% of our effort. Understanding where our efforts are highly efficient and less efficient provides an opportunity to set new targets for the efficient completion of work, which is instrumental to accomplishing an ambitious policy agenda.
Attachment B is the new Workplan Summary for the period of approximately August 2022 – November 2022. Many of the tasks on this Summary are a continuation of tasks from the last period, while new tasks have also been added. For instance, in the first Workplan Summary, Staff anticipated creating a workgroup and hiring an architect to design the Navigation Center as tasks related to Improving Homelessness. The next Workplan Summary includes tasks to engage with the workgroup and commence design work, along with new tasks such as selecting a Contractor.
While the Workplans are a good tool to ensure appropriate focus on the highest -level priorities, they are not a comprehensive list of all work Council may be interested to pursue. For that reason, Staff is seeking direction on any changes to the Workplan during Agenda Development during each regular City Council Meeting. Council may wish to defer certain tasks on the current draft Workplan Summary to pursue other initiatives.
Please note, however, that the goal is still to set an ambitious but realistic Workplan.
Lastly, S taff has provided the Strategic Plan Summary and an updated version of complete Workplans as Attachment C. This document helps put Workplan Summary tasks in broader context of strategic priorities and helps Council Members and residents understand what work has been completed, what work is underway, and what work to anticipate moving forward.
Please note the following in reviewing workplans:
• Workplans are primarily a staff document not meant for broad public consumption/ distribution.
• W orkplans reflect mid-level detail. While they significantly expand on each priority item to outline the tasks involved in accomplishing the priorities, there are still significant details lacking.
Item 1G - 2
City Council Staff Report
July 28, 2022 – Page 3
Update on Strategic Priorities and Workplans
• Workplans are meant to be living documents that are updated over time. Each workplan varies in the degree of detail and specificity. • Workplans may capture some very recent completed tasks but are primarily a document oriented to future work, not archiving completed work. They do not capture the history with most priority items.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

MANAGEMENT PROGRAM TO REVIEW AND CONSIDER THE IMPACTS
OF GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS DURING THE COMPREHENSIVE
ANALYSIS OF WATER IMPORT ALTERNATIVES AS PART OF THE
LONG-TERM SOLUTION FOR THE SALTON SEA
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
SUMMARY:
This
agenda item is to request City Council adopt a resolution supporting the Salton Sea Management Program that aims to import ocean water to refill the Salton Sea in order to restore the Salton Sea ecosystem while minimizing greenhouse emissions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt
Resolution No. _____, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING ITS SUPPORT FOR THE SALTON
SEA MANAGEMENT PROGRAM TO REVIEW AND CONSIDER THE IMPACTS OF
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS DURING THE CO MPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF
WATER IMPORT ALTERNATIVES AS PART OF THE LONG -TERM SOLUTION FOR THE SALTON SEA.”
BACKGROUND:
The Sal
ton Sea is California’s largest lake. The inflow of water to the Sea has decreased over the years, creating significant negative impacts including degradation of natural habitat, wildlife, air quality and water quality.
The Cal
ifornia Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Agency has developed a 10-year Salton Sea Management Plan. The California State Water Resources Control Board has an oversight role to ensure progress toward the goals of the Management Plan and intends to solidify a plan forward by December of this year.
In December 2017, the State released a Request for Information, seeking proposals that address the Management Plan goals. The solicitation initially resulted in 11 proposals that included a water importation component. An Ocean Water Import Independent Review Item 1H - 1
City Council Staff Report
July 28, 2022 -- Page 2
Resolution in Support of Salton Sea Management Program
Panel, consisting of scientists, researchers and professors from UC Santa Cruz, consultant engineers and contractors, reviewed proposals and solicited additional information from responders. In total, 18 responses to the Panel’s follow -up solicitation were received, including updates to the original 11 responses.
A recent report from the Stout Research Center identifies that many of the proposed long- range plans will cause significant greenhouse gas emissions in the form of carbon dioxide and methane. This has created calls for a renewed effort to evaluate long- term plans to import water to the Salton Sea in a way that minimizes greenhouse gas emissions.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Numerous stakeholders, including Riverside and Imperial Counties, area municipalities, businesses, residents, environmental groups , and other stakeholders have passed resolutions or issued statements supporting the need to develop long- range plans that included water importation while mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.
The proposed resolution, included as Attachment A, is modeled after similar resolutions passed by other Coachella Valley Cities.
ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLANNING:
This resolution aligns with City Council’s Strategic Priority #2 – Environmental Stewardship.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this resolution. Costs associated with continued planning, design and implementation of long -term plans are expected to be paid by the State of California.

BUSINESS PRINCIPAL DISCLOSURE:
The applications were submitted by Eric Hawkins, AIA, of Hawkins + Marshall, on behalf of Carmelita Properties Limited. James H. Moore and Eric Krut are the officers and directors of the entity. James H. Moore is the sole owner of the entity. The Public Integrity Disclosure Form is attached to this report (Attachment C).
BACKGROUND:
On April 7,2022, the City Council reviewed the applicant’s appeal request to overturn the decision made by the Planning Commission on February 23, 2022, to deny Case 3.4215 MAJ and Case 7.1632 AMM for the construction of a new 3,278- square-foot hillside single-family residence with a 10-foot front yard setback and a maximum building height of 23.6 feet. Subsequently, the City Council voted 3- 1 (Middleton opposed) to overturn the Planning Commission’s decision and approv e the applications, with a direction for Staff to substantiate the determination that the proposed project is categorically exempt from further California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15303(a) (Class 3, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures).
STAFF ANALYSIS:
In response to the City Council’s determination, Staff requested Terra Nova Planning & Research, Inc. to conduct an independent analysis relative to the appropriateness of Staff’s determination that the proposed project is categorically exempt from further CEQA review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15303(a). The summary of the findings is noted below, and the Memorandum prepared by Terra Nova Planning & Research, Inc. is attached to this staff report (Attachment D).
CEQA Class 3 Categorical Exemption:
1. The proposed project is consistent with the definition and examples of a Class 3 exemption.
CEQA Exceptions to Categorical Exemptions:
1. The six exceptions to CEQA Categorical Exemptions (CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2) do not apply to the project as explained below:
a) Location. The project site is not located within a sensitive environmental area of hazardous or critical concern.
b) Cumulative Impact. The project sites are adjacent to three vacant parcels ; Item 1I - 2
City Council Staff Report
July 28, 2022 -- Page 3
Case 3.4215 MAJ & Case 7.1632 AMM – Appeal
there is no evidence in the record that the addition of 3 residences would have a significant cumulative impact on the environment. c) Significant Impact. There is no evidence in the record th at the implementation of the proposed project would result in significant impacts, nor would significant impacts be expected from the construction of the two residences.
d) Scenic Highways. There are no designed scenic highways in the vicinity of the project site.
e) Hazardous Waste Sites. The project site is not identified as an environmental cleanup site, hazardous waste, or substances site (Cortese), or site containing a Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST), and none are located in the vicinity of the project site.
f) Historical Resources. The project site is currently vacant , and it does not contain any resources listed on the National Register of Historic Places or California Register of Historical Resources, and the City has not identified any historic resources within its boundaries.
Recommended Amendment to Previously Reviewed Resolution:
On pages 4 and 5 of the Memorandum ( Attachment D), the applicability of the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP) is discussed. The conditions of approval as reviewed by the City Council on April 7, 2022 included a CVMSHCP fee requirement (Condition of Approval ENG 35).
However, there were no other conditions that expressly require the project to be consistent with other aspects of the CVMSHCP, including the Land Use Adjacency Guidelines. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council include a condition that requires the proposed project to be in conformance with the CVMSHCP, specifically the Land Use Adjacency Guidelines which include the following:
1. Maintenance of runoff in its current condition.
2. Incorporation of shielded, directed light sources to minimize the eff ects of landscape lighting.
3. Landscape plant materials cannot incorporate any of the plants listed in Table 4-113 of the CVMSHCP and should incorporate native species listed in Table 4-112 of the Plan.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:
This project has been determined to be categorically exempt from further California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) review pursuant to Section 15303(a) of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures).

Resolution No. _____
Structures).
WHEREAS, on July 28, 2022 , the C ity Council reviewed the supplemental information prepared by T erra Nova Planning & Res earch, Inc. which supports the staff’s determination that the proposed pro ject is categorically e xempt from further CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act ) re view under CEQA Guide lines Section 15303(a) (Class 3, New Construc tion or Conversion of Small Structures) in accordance with applicable law.
WHEREAS, the proposed project is considered a “ project” pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and been determined to be categorically exempt pursu ant to S ection 1 5303(A) of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3, New Single- Family Residence).
WHEREAS, t he City Council has carefully reviewed and consi dered all of the evidence presented in connection with the meeting on the Project, including bu t not limited to, the staff re port, all environmental data including the environmental assessment prepared for the project and all written and oral testimony presented.
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 94.04.00 (Architectural Review) of the Palm Springs Zoning Code, the City Cou ncil finds that, based upon the following factors, the proposed project will provide a desirable environment for its occupants as well as being compatible with the character of adjacent and surrounding developments:
1. Site layout, orientation, location of s tructures and relationship to one another and to open spaces and topography. Definition of pedestrian and vehicular areas; i.e., sidewalks as distinct from parking lot areas.
The proposed residence will be developed in an L- shape orientation on a standard R -1-C Zone lot with a garage in front of the residence. An outdoor living space, including a pool, will be accommodated in the area between the garage and the residence surrounded by a 7- foot-high wall/pool enclosure.
Vehicular access will be provided by a driveway from West Crestview Drive, which leads to the angled, side- facing garage. A pedestrian path which extends from the driveway leads to the entrance of the residence. The proposed residence incorporates stepping design in its rear portion to f ollow th e hillside topography.
2. Harmonious relationship with existing and proposed adjoining developments and in the context of the immediate neighborhood/community, avoiding both excessive variety and monotonous repetition, but allowing similarity of style, if warranted
In addition to this MAJ application, the Planning Division has received a MAJ application (Case 3.4216 MAJ) for the adjacent parcel to the west, which is owned by the same property owner. The architectural style of the two residences is contemporary and very similar in design; however, the use of similar yet Item 1I - 10
Resolution No. _____
different construction materials and color palette differentiate the two projects visually. The adjacent properties to the east and south are designed with red clay roof tiles with s tucco or plaster. Although the proposed architectural style is different from the east and south neighboring properties, different architectural styles and building materials are observed in the neighborhood. Therefore, the proposed design is contextually appropriate.
3. Maximum height, area, setbacks and overall mass, as well as parts of any structure (buildings, walls, screens, towers or signs) and effective concealment of all mechanical equipment;
The proposed project generally meets the applicable development standards.
The building extends above the R -1-C Zone building envelope standard, which includes a building height of 12 feet at the setback and the 18- foot-maximum at the slope of 4:12 ratio as proposed. However, the building height may be increased up to 30 feet with AMM approval given that such modifications will not have detrimental impact on the adjacent properties pursuant to Palm Springs Zoning Code Sections 92.01.03(B)(5) and 94.06.01(A)(10). The applicant has submitted an AMM application (Cas e 7.1632 AMM) requesting modifications to the building envelope. The project proposes a designated equipment area between the garage and the front pool enclosure/wall. The equipment area will be screened with a 7- foot-high gate which will be construc ted of black powder coated aluminum vertical slats. The angled gate opening is side- facing, and it will not be visible from the street or the adjacent property to the east . Solar panels will be installed on the garage roof behind the parapet.
4. Building de sign, materials and colors to be sympathetic with desert surroundings;
The proposed materials, such as panel formed concrete, black powder coated metal, plaster, and wood, are commonly observed construction materials in the City, and the project proposes desert-neutral color palette.
5. Harmony of materials, colors and composition of those elements of a structure, including overhangs, roofs, and substructures which ar e visible simultaneously;
The proposed color palette consists of desert -neutral colors such as black (black anodized aluminum powder coated steel), light brown (Accoya wood), light gray (panel formed concrete), and white (Stucco – Merlex Plaster P -6 El Do rado).
The simplistic architectural design will showcase the detail and unique char acter of each construction material, and the materials and colors are complementary to each other.
6. Consistency of composition and treatment;
Item 1I - 11
Resolution No. _____
The project proposes the consistent architectural treatment on all four sides as exemplified by the application of r ectilinear form and repeated use of identical construction materials.
7. Location and type of planting, with regard for desert climate conditions.
Preservation of specimen and landmark trees upon a site, with proper irrigation to insure maintenance of all plant materials;
The proposed plant palette consists of plant materials that are included in the Lush and Efficient gardening book for the Coachella Valley as required in PSMC Section 8.60.060(b)(a). No turf is proposed for the project. The revised landscape plan includes additional planting materials as required by the ARC; however, the proposed tree placement in the rear yard is too orderly for the existing natural hillside landscape. As conditioned, the project would comply with this finding.
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 93.13.00 (Hillside Developments) of the Palm Springs Zoning Code, the City Council finds that, based upon the following factors, the proposed project will provide a safe, orderly and aesthetically appealing development to the hillside area:
1. Rock and soil exposure;
The project site is currently undeveloped. The site’s condition appears to be very similar to other undeveloped hillside lots in the City; there is no rock or soil exposure that is particularly unique to the site. The ex isting hillside landscape will be retained around the perimeter of the proposed residence.
2. Size of building pad;
The proposed single- story 3,278- square-foot residence which includes 2,775 square feet of living space, a 503- sq. ft. garage, outdoor living space, and a pool on a 15,173-squre-foot lot. As shown on the Grading & Slope Band Diagram on Sheet T0.01, the proposed building pad is generally located in the front portion of the lot. The size of the building pad is approximately 3,420 square feet in area, which is equivalent to 22% of the total lot size.
3. Design considerations, such as supporting stilts, colors and building arrangement;
The project proposes piers for structural support to minimize the visual impact of the project when viewed f rom the rear/north. The proposed color palette is desert-neutral, which is appropriate for the site and its surrounding. The proposed residence will be located towards the front of the property to avoid the steep slope area and retain the natural topography as much as possible.
4. Screening of parking areas;
Item 1I - 12
Resolution No. _____
The project proposes a two- car parking garage. The garage opening is slightly angled, and it is side (east)-facing.
5. Landscaping plans;
The project proposes the installation of drought -tolerant pl ant materials.
Although the revised landscape plan shows additional planting materials in the rear yard, the proposed lineal tree placement appears too orderly for the existing natural hillside landscape and topography. The project is subject to a condit ion of a pproval, which requires the improvement of the tree placement in the rear yard subject to ARC review. With the implementation of this condi tion, the project meets this finding.
6. Continuity with surrounding development;
The project proposes a 3,278-square-foot residence. The building footprint of the eight (8) existing single- family residences located within the site’s vicinity ranges from 1,950 square feet to 7,749 square feet based on the measurement taken by using the City’s mapping software, with the average size of 3,465 square feet.
Therefore, the proposed residence is compatible with other residences in the neighborhood, and the project will not disrupt the development pattern of the site’s vicinity.
7. Sensitivity to existing view corridors.
The vertical height of the proposed residence varies from 11.5 feet to 13.5 feet.
The average elevation measured near the center line of Crestview Drive is 498.5 feet, and the elevation measured at the top of the 12-foot-high garage is 507 feet.
This indicates that the height of the garage measured from the street will be only
8.5 feet, which is lower than the height of a typical single- family residence. The topography slopes down as it moves towards the rear of the property, and the top of the rear portion of the residence drops by 3.25 feet measured from the central area of the residence. The adjacent property to the south is located at higher elevation, and the property to the east is located at lower elevation. Sensiti vity to the existing view corridor s is demonstrated through the residence’s stepping design.
WHEREAS, p ursuant to Section 94.06.01 (Minor Modifications) of the Palm Springs Zoning Code, the City Council finds:
1. The requested minor modification is consistent with the general plan, applicable specific plan(s) and overall objectives of the zoning ordinance.
The approval of this AMM application is requested for an increase in the maximum allowable building height and a front yard setback reduction for a hillside single -family residence i n ac cordance with Palm Springs Zoning Code Item 1I - 13
Resolution No. _____
Sections 92.01.03(B)(5) and 94.06.01(A)(10). The project proposes the building height of 23.6 feet, and it is less than the 30- foot-maximim allowed per PSZC Section 94.06.01(A)(10). PSZC Section 94.06.01(A)( 10) allows a 10 -foot front yard setback. The approval of the AMM application will not alter the nature of the proposed project or the single-family residential land use, and it is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan and zoning ordinance.
2. The neighboring properties will not be adversely affected as a result of the approval or conditional approval of the minor modification.
The height of the proposed structure itself varies from 11.5 feet to 13.5 feet, which is within the maximum allowable building height for a standard single- family residence. The maximum height of 23.6 feet is measured at the rear/north end of the proposed residence over a steep sloping topography. The property abuts to a vacant lot in the rear and the building steps down b y 3.25 feet in the rear portion. Additionally, the Prevailing Setback Diagram (Sheet T0.01) shows that the project site is adjacent to the properties that are also developed with a reduced front yard setback. Finally, the portion of the residence for which the 10- foot front yard setback is proposed is limited to the side elevation of the garage.
Since the garage is not a habitable space, it eliminates concern relating to privacy or noise impact on the adjacent properties. Hence, the approval of the AMM application will not adversely affect the neighboring properties.
3. The approval or conditional approval of the minor modification will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working on the site or in the vicinity.
The approval of this AMM application will not affect or alter the single- family residential use of the subject property. The proposed residence will be required to be constructed in accordance with the applicable zoning code regulations and the California Building Code for safety compliance. Therefore, it will not adversely affect the individuals who live or work on the site or in its vicinity.
4. The approval of the minor modification is justified by environmental features, site conditions, loc ation of existing improvements, or historic development patterns of the property or neighborhood.
Although the project site is standard in terms of its size and dimensions, the site’s viable space for development is limited to the front portion of the lot due to the steep topography in the rear. Hence, the approval of this AMM application is justified by the site’s physical condition.

MEMORANDUM

Associate Planner
City of Palm Springs
FROM: Nicole Sauviat Criste
Principal
DATE: July 12, 2022
RE: CEQA Categorical Exemption for Major Architectural Review 3.4215 and 3.4216 and Administrative Minor Modification 7.1632 and
7.1633, Crestview Drive
Terra Nova Planning & Research has completed its review of the two proposed single family residential units proposed at 310 and 322 West Crestview Drive. The City has preliminarily determined that the two projects are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as allowed by CEQA Guidelines Section 15303 (a). The purpose of this technical memorandum is to determine whether the exemption is appropriate in this case.
As CEQA requires that the City consider the totality of an action when considering the environmental impacts of a project, the analysis below has been undertaken for both projects together.
Project Location
The Project sites are located at 310 and 322 West Crestview Drive, in the Mesa neighborhood. The sites are west of South Palm Canyon Drive, in a hillside neighborhood that has been mostly developed. The Project is proposed on two currently vacant existing legal lots.
Project Description
The Project consists of the construction of two custom single family homes, one on each lot, as follows:
Item 1I - 33
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
• 310 West Crestview: 3,278 square foot house on a 15,173 square foot lot.
The house will be single -story, and extend to 23. 6 feet in height. A Major Architectural Review is required because the Project occurs in a hillside area. An Administrative Minor Modi fication is requested to reduce front yard setbacks to 10 feet ( rather than the 25 feet required), and to increase building height to 23.3 feet (rather than the 12 -18 feet/30 feet with AMM allowed).
• 322 West Crestview: 3,344 square foot house on a n 11,206 square foot lot.
The house will be two -story, and extend to 25.8 feet in height. A Major Architectural Review is required because the Project occurs in a hillside area. An Administrative Minor Modification is requested to reduce front yard setbacks to 10 f eet (rather than the 25 feet required), and to increase building height to 25.8 feet (rather than the 12 -18 feet/30 feet with AMM allowed).
The current General Plan designation is Estate Residential , and the current zoning designation is Single Family Residential (R-1-C).
CEQA Class 3 Categorical Exemption
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires the City to evaluate the potential environmental effects of proposed development projects and other major land use actions. CEQA Guidelines section 15300 describes Categorical Exemptions, which are projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which are, therefore, exempt from the pr ovisions of CEQA and its requirement for the preparation of environmental documents.
Among the various Categorical Exemptions are Class 3 projects consisting of new construction or conversion of small structures. CEQA Guidelines section 15303 describes Class 3 categorial exemptions as follows:
“15303. New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures Class 3 consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures ; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor mo difications are made in the exterior of the structure. The numbers of structures Item 1I - 34
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
described in this section are the maximum allowable on any legal parcel.”
Sections 15303(a) through (f) provide examples of structures that qualify as Class 3 projects . The examples include, but are not limited to (a) one single -family residence or a second dwelling unit in a residential zone ; (b) a duplex or similar multi-family residential structure totaling no more than four dwelling units; (c) a store, motel, office, restaurant or similar structure not involving the use of significant amounts of hazardous substances and not exceeding 2,500 square feet in floor area. In urbanized areas, a greater number of such units can qualify as exempt. In this case, the City has concluded that the Project qualifies u nder subsection (a), and has proposed an exemption for each lot/house being proposed.
The proposed Project is consistent with the definition and examples of a Class 3 exemption.
The Project would result in the construction of two new single family homes on two individual lots, similar to the example described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15303(a). The Project further does not proposed more than 3 homes, the limitation placed on single family home in 15303(a), but only two. Statements to the contrary made by the public in this case are not supported by substantial evidence. The City does not currently, nor has it had in the past, applic ations for any other single family homes on the surrounding lots. The City is not required under CEQA to consider speculation and conjecture. The only project before the City is the development of two single family homes on two legal lots. The City has applied the requirements of the exemption correctly.
Section 15303 also reads, in part: “…(t)he numbers of structures described in this section are the maximum allowable on any legal parcel. ” The Project would result in one single family home on one legal p arcel in a single family zone in both cases. Therefore, from that perspective, the Project qualifies for the exemption.
CEQA Exceptions to Categorical Exemptions
Item 1I - 35
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 establishes six (6) exceptions to categorical exemptions, listed below. Following each ex ception is an analysis of how it applies or does not apply to the proposed Project.
(a) Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located – a project that is o rdinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardo us or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state or local agencies.
Applicability to the Proposed Project: The subject property is not located in a sensitive environmental area of hazardous or critical concern.
a. The Project is not located in a Conservation Area, as defined by the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP). The site is outside the San Jacinto/Santa Rosa Mountains Conservation Area, and outside the critical habitat boundary for the Peninsular Bighorn Sheep. The boundaries of both the Conservation Area and the critical habitat area are clearly mapped and officially adopted. The Project will be required to pay the CVMSHCP implementation fee for no n- conservation areas, as a standard requirement imposed by the City. The site is not on Reservation land, and is therefore not subject to the requirements of the ACBCI Tribal Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan.
Public comment has been made regard ing the presence of bighorn sheep in the area surrounding the Project site. The presence of bighorn in existing neighborhoods has been
experienced by multiple cities in the Valley. They are
attracted not by the native environment of the Project site, but b y the non -native landscaping and water sources
Item 1I - 36
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
created by human development. Therefore, the Project has not create d an impact on bighorn sheep, but existing
conditions may have and may in the future. As the Court ruled in Ballona Wetlands Land Trust v. Los Angeles County , CEQA is required to analyze the impacts of a project on the environment, not the impacts of the en vironment on the project.
In addition, the City implements, as a signatory to the CVMSHCP, the requirements of the Plan on all projects. In most cases, this involves the payment of fees. In this case, the Project will be required, as a standard practice, to implement the Land Use Adjacency Guidelines c ontained in Chapter 4.5 of the CVMSHCP. Specifically, the Guidelines require:
i) Maintenance of runoff in its current condition (see
subsection (c) below).
ii) Incorporation of shielded, directed light sources to minimize the effects of landscape lighting.
iii) Landscape plant materials cannot incorporate any of the plants listed in Table 4 -113 of the Plan, and should incorporate native species listed in Table 4 -112 of the Plan.
These are standard requirements that would be imposed on any project in the vicinity of a Conservation Area in the City , including the proposed Project. Therefore, the Project will not impact bighorn sheep, and the application of the exemption is appropriate.
b. The site is not located in or near an earthquake hazard zone, which are clearly mapped and adopted, and the nearest
fault to the Project site is more than 5 miles away. Although the buildings will be subject to groundshaking, as will all buildings in the City, the imposition of the requirements of the Building Code will apply, as they do for all buildings in the City, and no hazard will occur.
Item 1I - 37
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
c. The proposed homes are not located in a flood zone, as mapped by FEMA and as shown on Project plans. The
construction of the homes will be regulated by conditions of approval which implement the City’s standard requirements:
the retention of on -site flows on site, and the allowance that storm flows currently flowing through the property must exit the property at the same velocity and volume as current conditions. Furthermore, as evidenced in the record, the City Engineer has received and is reviewing a site -specific hydrology analysis, which will conform to these standards and which must demonstrate that it will not cause on -site or off - site drainage impacts. This condition is also supported by the CVMSHCP Land Use Adjacency Guidelines, to which the
Project will be subject. This condition is applied to all projects in the City and does not create a critical concern.
d. The Project site is not located on property that has been identified as containing hazardous materials, as inventoried by the State of California. There is not potential for hazardous materials to occur on the site , nor will the construction of 2 single family homes result in the presence of hazardous materials on the site.
e. The Project is not located in an area subject to excessive noise, nor will it create a noise source that will significantly increase noise on and around the Project site. N o impact would be expected to sensitive receptors on or around the Project site. The noise created during construction of the Project would be subject to the provisions of the City’s Noise Ordinance, as would any construction in the City, and no hazard will result.
(b) Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant.
Item 1I - 38
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
Applicability to the Proposed Project: The Project will result in the addition of 2 homes in an area that is almost completely developed. The neighborhood was designed and subdivided to include the 2 lots currently proposed for development. There are 3 additional lots located in the immediate vicinity of t he Project site which could also, in the future, be developed into single family homes. These additional homes would be considered as they were proposed, and will not exceed the capacity of the neighborhood as currently designed. All future projects in thi s area will be subject to the same standard conditions and requirements as the proposed Project, which are designed to address not only site-specific but area-wide impacts. There is no evidence in the record that the addition of 3 more homes would have a significant cumulative impact on the environment.
(c) Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances.
Applicability to the Proposed Project: As described above, the proposed Project will be subject to all of the same standards and requirements as any project in the City, including the protection of biological resources, the prevention of flood ing hazards, and the creation of noise. There is no evidence in the record that the implementation of the proposed Project would result in
significant impacts, nor would significant impacts be expected from the construction of two homes in an existing, bui lt out neighborhood. This exception to categorical exemptions does not apply to the Project.
(d) Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to Item 1I - 39
Memorandum
Crestview Residential Exemption
improvements which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration of certified EIR.
Applicability to the Proposed Project: The subject property is located in the southwest portion of the City. There are no designated scenic highways in the vicinity of the proposed Project. Therefore, t his exception to categorical exemptions does not apply to the Project.
(e) Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.
Applicability to the Proposed Project: The subject property is not identified as an environmental cleanup site, hazardous waste or substances site (Cortese), or site containing a Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) , and none are located in the Project vicinity. 1 The Project will have no impact on such a site.
Therefore, this exception to categorical exemptions does not apply to the Project.
(f) Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be use d for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
Applicability to the Proposed Project: The subject p roperty is currently vacant and is surrounded by existing single family homes built over decades. It does not contain any resources listed on the National Register of Historic Places or California Register of Historical Resources , and the City has not identified any historic resources within its boundaries .2 The Project would have no impact on a historical resource. Therefore, this

exception to categorical exemptions does not apply to the Project.
Conclusions
As described in the above analysis, the proposed Project is consistent with the terms of a Class 3 ex emption under CEQA Guidelines section 15303 . The exceptions to categorical exemptions detailed in CEQA Guideline section 15300.2 do not apply to the Project. Therefore, the Project is exempt from CEQA under the Class 3 exemption.
