RIOS PROJECT (PROJECT)

DRAFT INITIAL STUDY AND MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION (IS/MND) SCH# 2022100079

Dear Ms. Kikuchi:

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) received a Notice of Intent to Adopt an IS/MND from the City of Palm Springs for the Project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines.
1 Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments and recommendations regarding those activities involved in the Project that may affect California fish and wildlife. Likewise, we appreciate the opportunity to provide comments regarding those aspects of the Project that CDFW, by law, may be required to carry out or approve through the exercise of its own regulatory authority under the Fish and Game Code.

CDFW ROLE

CDFW is California’s Trustee Agency for fish and wildlife resources and holds those resources in trust by statute for all the people of the State. (Fish & G. Code, §§ 711.7, subd. (a) & 1802; Pub. Resources Code, § 21070; CEQA Guidelines § 15386, subd. (a).) CDFW, in its trustee capacity, has jurisdiction over the conservation, protection, and management of fish, wildlife, native plants, and habitat necessary for biologically sustainable populations of those species. (Id., § 1802.) Similarly, for purposes of CEQA, CDFW is charged by law to provide, as available, biological expertise during public agency environmental review efforts, focusing specifically on projects and related activities that have the potential to adversely affect fish and wildlife resources.

CDFW is also submitting comments as a Responsible Agency under CEQA. (Pub.

Resources Code, § 21069; CEQA Guidelines, § 15381.) CDFW expects that it may need to exercise regulatory authority as provided by the Fish and Game Code. As proposed, for example, the Project may be subject to CDFW’s lake and streambed alteration regulatory authority (Fish & G. Code, § 1600 et seq.) Likewise, to the extent implementation of the Project as proposed may result in “take” as defined by State law of any species protected under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA) (Fish & G. Code, § 2050 et seq.), the project proponent may seek related take authorization as provided by the Fish and Game Code.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION SUMMARY

Proponent: City of Palm Springs

Objective: The objective of the Project is to implement a zoning change for the Project site from Central Business District (CBD) and Limited Multiple-Family Residential (R-2) to Retail Business (C-1). The discretionary approval by the City of the Change of Zone, Tentative Tract Map, Major Architectural Review, and a Variance would allow construction of a new mixed-use development that includes 24 residential condominiums and 2,214 square feet of commercial space. This development would be situated on 2.4-acres of

1 CEQA is codified in the California Public Resources Code in section 21000 et seq. The “CEQA Guidelines” are found in Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, commencing with section 15000. 3-1

undeveloped parcels. Construction is expected to occur in five phases, including site preparation, grading, building construction, paving, and architectural coating.

Location: The Project is located in the City of Palm Springs on four parcels (Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 505-322-001 through 505-322-004) at the northwest corner of North Palm Canyon Drive and West Chino Drive (575 North Palm Canyon Drive), Riverside County, California. It is within the north-central portion of the City, approximately 2.5 miles west of the Palm Springs International Airport. Lands surrounding the parcels are developed residential units and commercial businesses. The Project’s parcels are located within the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSCP) boundary. The Project is within the Indio subbasin of the Coachella Valley Groundwater Basin.

Timeframe: Construction is anticipated to start in November 2022 and to be completed by May 2024 (18 months total).

COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

CDFW has jurisdiction over the conservation, protection, and management of fish, wildlife, native plants, and habitat necessary for biologically sustainable populations of those species (i.e., biological resources). CDFW offers the comments and recommendations below to assist the City of Palm Springs in adequately identifying and/or mitigating the Project’s significant, or potentially significant, direct and indirect impacts on fish and wildlife (biological) resources. Editorial comments or other suggestions may also be included to improve the document. The IS/MND has not adequately identified and disclosed the Project’s impacts (i.e., direct, indirect, and cumulative) to biological resources and whether those impacts are less than significant. CDFW offers the following comments and recommendations to assist the City in adequately identifying and mitigating the Project’s significant, or potentially significant, impacts to biological resources.

CDFW’s comments and recommendations on the IS/MND are explained in greater detail below and summarized here. The IS/MND bases its analysis of impacts to biological resources on a report by ELMT Consulting, which conducted a habitat assessment of the Project site on February 25, 2022 (Appendix B of the IS/MND). CDFW is concerned about the potential for special-status species, including those not covered under the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP), to occur on the Project site. The habitat assessment was not conducted at the appropriate time(s) of year to detect all special-status species on-site. Surveys conducted at the appropriate times of the year and using standard survey protocols are needed to inform appropriate avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures, as well as to determine whether impacts to biological resources have been mitigated to a level that is less than significant.

Furthermore, the mitigation measure provided in the IS/MND is not adequate to protect nesting birds.

Assessment of Impacts to Biological Resources

Nesting Birds

It is the Project proponent’s responsibility to comply with all applicable laws related to nesting birds and birds of prey. Fish and Game Code sections 3503, 3503.5, and 3513 afford protective measures as follows: section 3503 states that it is unlawful to take, possess, or needlessly destroy the nest or eggs of any bird, except as otherwise provided by Fish and Game Code or any regulation made pursuant thereto. Fish and Game Code section 3503.5 makes it unlawful to take, possess, or destroy any birds in the orders Falconiformes or Strigiformes (birds-of-prey) or to take, possess, or destroy the nest or eggs of any such bird except as otherwise provided by Fish and Game Code or any regulation adopted pursuant thereto. Fish and Game Code section 3513 makes it unlawful to take or possess any migratory nongame bird except as provided by rules and regulations adopted by the Secretary of the Interior under provisions of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, as amended (16 U.S.C. § 703 et seq.).

The IS/MND (p. 37) indicates that “the Project site and surrounding area provides suitable 3-5

foraging and nesting habitat for avian species [year-round, seasonal, and migrating songbirds] adapted to human disturbance and desert environments.” CDFW is concerned about impacts to nesting birds from ground-disturbing activities and construction. Although the IS/MND includes Mitigation Measure (MM) BIO-1 for nesting birds, the timing and scope are insufficient to protect nesting birds. CDFW recommends the revised IS/MND include specific avoidance and minimization measures to ensure that impacts to nesting birds do not occur. Project-specific avoidance and minimization measures may include, but are not limited to, Project phasing and timing, monitoring of Project-related noise (where applicable), sound walls, and buffers, where appropriate. CDFW recommends that disturbance of occupied nests of migratory birds and raptors within the Project site be avoided any time birds are nesting onsite. Preconstruction nesting bird surveys shall be performed within 3 days prior to Project activities to determine the presence and location of nesting birds. CDFW recommends MM BIO-1 be revised as follows:

MM BIO-1: Avoidance of Nesting Birds

Nesting bird surveys shall be performed by a qualified avian biologist no more than (3) days prior to vegetation removal or ground-disturbing activities.

Pre-construction surveys shall focus on both direct and indirect evidence of nesting, including nest locations and nesting behavior. The qualified avian biologist will make every effort to avoid potential nest predation as a result of survey and monitoring efforts. If active nests are found during the pre- construction nesting bird surveys, a qualified biologist shall establish an appropriate nest buffer to be marked on the ground. Nest buffers are species specific and shall be at least 300 feet for passerines and 500 feet for raptors.

A smaller or larger buffer may be determined by the qualified biologist familiar with the nesting phenology of the nesting species and based on nest and buffer monitoring results. Established buffers shall remain on site until a qualified biologist determines the young have fledged or the nest is no longer active. Active nests and adequacy of the established buffer distance shall be monitored daily by the qualified biologist until the qualified biologist has determined the young have fledged or the Project has been completed. The qualified biologist has the authority to stop work if nesting pairs exhibit signs of disturbance.

Pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines, section 15097(f), CDFW has prepared a draft mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP) for proposed MM BIO-1–7 (see Attachment 1).

Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP) Within the Inland Deserts Region, CDFW issued Natural Community Conservation Plan Approval and Take Authorization for the CVMSHCP per Section 2800, et seq., of the California Fish and Game Code on September 9, 2008. The CVMSHCP establishes a multiple species conservation program to minimize and mitigate habitat loss and provides for the incidental take of covered species in association with activities covered under the permit. Compliance with approved habitat plans, such as the CVMSHCP, is discussed in CEQA. Specifically, Section 15125(d) of the CEQA Guidelines requires that the CEQA document discuss any inconsistencies between a proposed Project and applicable general plans and regional plans, including habitat conservation plans and natural community conservation plans. An assessment of the impacts to the CVMSHCP as a result of this Project is necessary to address CEQA requirements. To obtain additional information regarding the CVMSHCP please go to: http://www.cvmshcp.org/.

The Project occurs within the CVMSHCP area and is subject to provisions and policies of the CVMSHCP. The Project does not occur within or share a common boundary with a Conservation Area of the CVMSHCP; however, Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains Conservation Area is approximately 0.26 miles west of the Project, and Whitewater Floodplain Conservation Area is approximately 3.0 miles north of the Project. To be considered a covered activity, Permittees should demonstrate that proposed actions are consistent with the CVMSHCP and its associated Implementing Agreement. The City of Palm Springs is the Lead Agency and a Permittee of the CVMSHCP . The IS/MND includes

City of Palm Springs
October 25, 2022

mitigation measure BIO-2 to address the Project occurring within the CVMSHCP. CDFW recommends MM BIO-2 be revised as follows:

MM BIO-2: CVMSHCP Compliance
Prior to construction and issuance of any grading permit, the City of Palm Springs shall ensure compliance with the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP) and its associated Implementing Agreement and shall ensure the collection of payment of the CVMSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee.

Special-Status Plants

Based on review of the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and Biogeographic Information and Observation System (BIOS), plant species that are state and/or federally listed as endangered and plant species with California Rare Plant Ranks of 1B and 2B have the potential to occur in the Project area. The California Rare Plant Rank 1B indicates plants that are rare, threatened, or endangered in California and elsewhere, and California Rare Plant Rank 2B indicates plants that are rare, threatened, or endangered in California but more common elsewhere. Impacts to these species must be analyzed during preparation of environmental documents relating to CEQA because they meet the definition of rare or endangered under CEQA Guidelines §15125 (c) and/or §15380.

The IS/MND indicates that no special-status plants were observed during the habitat assessment conducted on February 25, 2022. The biological report indicates that 32 special-status plant species were identified in literature and database searches for the Palm Springs quadrangle, including species not covered by the CVMSHCP. CDFW is concerned that the habitat assessment was not conducted at the appropriate time of year to detect all special-status plants on the Project site. CNDDB/BIOS indicates that the following special-status plants have historically occurred near the Project location: Mecca- aster (Xylorhiza cognata), pygmy lotus (Acmispon haydonii), Latimer’s woodland-gilia (Saltugilia latimeri), Parry’s spineflower (Chorizanthe parryi var. parryi), Parish’s brittlescale (Atriplex parishii), slender cottonheads (Nemacaulis denudata var. gracilis), Payson’s jewelflower (Caulanthus simulans), and Horn’s milk-vetch (Astragalus hornii var. hornii). CDFW recommends that a thorough, recent, floristic-based assessment of special- status plants is completed at the appropriate time(s) of year before the City of Palm Springs adopts the MND. The results of this assessment should be included in a revised MND. If any rare, threatened, endangered, or other sensitive plant species are located within the Project site, CDFW recommends that the IS/MND be revised to include appropriate avoidance minimization, and mitigation measures. CDFW recommends adding the following mitigation measure:

MM BIO-3: Special-Status Plants

A thorough floristic-based assessment of special-status plants and natural communities, following CDFW's Protocols for Surveying and Evaluating Impacts to Special Status Native Plant Populations and Natural Communities (CDFW 2018 or most recent version) shall be performed by a qualified biologist prior to commencing Project activities. Should any state-listed plant species be present in the Project area, the Project proponent shall obtain an Incidental Take Permit for those species not covered under the CVMSHCP prior to the start of Project activities.

Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia)

Burrowing owl is a California Species of Special Concern. Take of individual burrowing owls and their nests is defined by Fish and Game Code section 86, and prohibited by sections 3503, 3503.5, and 3513. Fish and Game Code section 3513 makes it unlawful to take or possess any migratory nongame bird except as provided by rules and regulations adopted by the Secretary of the Interior under provisions of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, as amended (16 U.S.C. § 703 et seq.). Burrowing owl is a Covered Species under 3-8

Item 2B - Page 224
Noriko Kikuchi, Associate Planner
City of Palm Springs
October 25, 2022

the CVMSHCP, which requires that avoidance and minimization measures be implemented for this species.

Attachment D of the biological report indicates that burrowing owl is presumed absent from the Project site. However, because of the potential for burrowing owl to move into disturbed sites, CDFW recommends that prior to commencing Project activities, pre- construction surveys for burrowing owl be conducted by a qualified biologist. CDFW recommends adding the following mitigation measure to the revised IS/MND:

MM BIO-4: Burrowing Owl Surveys

Pre-construction burrowing owl surveys shall be conducted no less than 14 days prior to the start of Project-related activities and within 24 hours prior to ground disturbance, in accordance with the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFG 2012 or most recent version). Pre-construction surveys should be performed by a qualified biologist following the recommendations and guidelines provided in the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation. If the pre-construction surveys confirm occupied burrowing owl habitat, Project activities shall be immediately halted. The qualified biologist shall coordinate with CDFW and USFWS to conduct an impact assessment to develop avoidance and minimization measures to be approved by CDFW prior to commencing Project activities.

Desert Tortoise (Gopherus agassizii)

According to the IS/MND, no desert tortoises were detected during the habitat assessment conducted on February 25, 2022. Chapter 4 of the Desert Tortoise (Mojave Population) Field Manual indicates that “surveys should be conducted during the desert tortoise’s most active periods (April through May or September through October)” (USFWS 2009, p. 4–8).

CDFW is concerned that the timing and scope of the survey were insufficient to determine the presence of desert tortoise on the Project site.

Although desert tortoise is covered under the CVMSHCP, Section 9.6.1.4 of the plan indicates: “Both inside and outside Conservation Areas, avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures require relocation of individual tortoises if required surveys locate individuals on the site of Covered Activities. For more information about avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures see Section 4.4.
” CDFW recommends that prior to
commencing Project activities, preconstruction surveys for desert tortoise following the Desert Tortoise (Mojave Population) Field Manual should be conducted by a qualified biologist. As a result, CDFW recommends adding the following mitigation measure:

MM BIO-5: Desert Tortoise Surveys

No more than 14 calendar days prior to start of Project activities, a qualified biologist shall conduct pre-construction surveys for desert tortoise as described in the USFWS Desert Tortoise (Mojave Population) Field Manual (USFWS 2009 or most recent version). Pre-construction surveys shall be completed using perpendicular survey routes within the Project area and 50- foot buffer zone. Pre-construction surveys cannot be combined with other surveys conducted for other species while using the same personnel. Project activities cannot start until two negative results from consecutive surveys using perpendicular survey routes for desert tortoise are documented. Should desert tortoise presence be confirmed during the survey, the qualified biologist shall immediately notify CDFW and USFWS to determine appropriate avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures.

Desert Kit Fox (Vulpes macrotis arsipus)

Desert kit fox is protected as a fur-bearing mammal under Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (Chap. 5, § 460) and may not be taken at any time. BIOS data layers showing 8 3-8
3-9
3-10
Item 2B - Page 225

connectivity modeling for the California Desert Linkage Network indicate that the Project site falls within core breeding habitat for kit fox. Because desert kit fox has high fidelity to natal dens, it is crucial to adequately assess whether desert kit fox is present on the Project site well in advance of commencing Project activities. If desert kit fox is found onsite during breeding season, it could delay Project activities for the length of the breeding season.

The IS/MND (p. 36) indicates that the “Project site provides suitable foraging and denning habitat for mammalian species adapted to human disturbance and desert environments.

However, most mammal species are nocturnal and are difficult to observe during a diurnal field visit.” CDFW is concerned that the timing and scope of the habitat assessment were not sufficient to assess whether desert kit fox is present on the Project site. Therefore, CDFW recommends that prior to commencing Project activities, pre-construction surveys for desert kit fox be conducted by a qualified biologist. As a result, CDFW recommends adding the following mitigation measure:

MM BIO-6: Desert Kit Fox Surveys

No more than 14 days prior to the beginning of ground disturbance and/or Project activities, a qualified biologist shall conduct pre-construction surveys to determine if potential desert kit fox burrows/dens are present in the Project area. Pre-construction surveys should include 100-percent visual coverage of the Project area and cannot be combined with other surveys conducted for other species while using the same personnel. If the pre-construction surveys confirm occupied desert kit fox habitat, Project activities shall be immediately halted, and the qualified biologist shall notify CDFW and USFWS to develop avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures. No disturbance of active dens shall take place when juvenile desert kit fox may be present and dependent on parental care.

Minimizing Impacts to Other Species

The IS/MND (p. 36) states the Project site has “limited foraging and cover habitat for support reptilian species… suitable foraging and denning habitat for mammalian species,” but includes no avoidance and minimization measures. CDFW recommends inclusion of the following mitigation measure:

MM BIO-7: Minimizing Impacts to Other Species

A qualified biologist shall be on-site prior to and during all ground- and habitat disturbing activities to move out of harm’s way wildlife that would otherwise be injured or killed from Project-related activities. Movement of wildlife out of harm’s way should be limited to only those individuals that would otherwise by injured or killed, and individuals should be moved only as far a necessary to ensure their safety. Measures shall be taken to prevent wildlife from re-entering the Project site. Only biologists with authorization by CDFW shall move CESA-listed species.

ENVIRONMENTAL DATA

CEQA requires that information developed in environmental impact reports and negative declarations be incorporated into a database which may be used to make subsequent or supplemental environmental determinations. (Pub. Resources Code, § 21003, subd. (e).) Accordingly, please report any special-status species and natural communities detected during Project surveys to the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB). The CNNDB field survey form can be filled out and submitted online at the following link:
https://wildlife.ca.gov/Data/CNDDB/Submitting-Data. The types of information reported to CNDDB can be found at the following link: https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/CNDDB/Plants- and-Animals.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT FILING FEES

The Project, as proposed, would have an impact on fish and/or wildlife, and assessment of environmental document filing fees is necessary. Fees are payable upon filing of the Notice of Determination by the Lead Agency and serve to help defray the cost of environmental review by CDFW. Payment of the environmental document filing fee is required in order for the underlying project approval to be operative, vested, and final. (Cal.

Code Regs, tit. 14, § 753.5; Fish & G. Code, § 711.4; Pub. Resources Code, § 21089.)

CONCLUSION

CDFW appreciates the opportunity to comment on the IS/MND to assist the City of Palm Springs in identifying and mitigating Project impacts on biological resources. CDFW concludes that the IS/MND does not adequately identify or mitigate for the Project’s significant, or potentially significant, impacts on biological resources. CDFW recommends that prior to adoption of the IS/MND, the City of Palm Springs revise the document to include a more complete assessment of the Project’s potential impacts on biological resources, as well as appropriate avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures.

CDFW personnel are available for consultation regarding biological resources and strategies to minimize impacts.

construction surveys cannot be combined with other
surveys conducted for other species while using the
same personnel. Project activities cannot start until
two negative results from consecutive surveys using
perpendicular survey routes for desert tortoise are
documented. Should desert tortoise presence be
confirmed during the survey, the qualified biologist
shall immediately notify CDFW and USFWS to
determine appropriate avoidance, minimization, and
mitigation measures.

MM-BIO-6: Desert Kit Fox Surveys
No more than 14 days prior to the beginning of
ground disturbance and/or Project activities, a
qualified biologist shall conduct pre-construction
surveys to determine if potential desert kit fox
burrows/dens are present in the Project area. Pre-
construction surveys should include 100-percent
visual coverage of the Project area and cannot be
combined with other surveys conducted for other
species while using the same personnel. If the pre-
construction surveys confirm occupied desert kit fox
habitat, Project activities shall be immediately halted, and the qualified biologist shall notify CDFW and
USFWS to develop avoidance, minimization, and
mitigation measures. No disturbance of active dens
shall take place when juvenile desert kit fox may be
present and dependent on parental care.

A qualified biologist shall be on-site prior to and
during all ground- and habitat disturbing activities to move out of harm’s way wildlife that would otherwise
be injured or killed from Project-related activities.

Movement of wildlife out of harm’s way should be
limited to only those individuals that would otherwise
by injured or killed, and individuals should be moved
only as far a necessary to ensure their safety.

Measures shall be taken to prevent wildlife from re-
entering the Project site. Only biologists with
authorization by CDFW shall move CESA-listed

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS

3-4
Comment noted. Though the habitat assessment was
conducted in February of 2022, outside of the blooming
season for most of the special -status plants in the area, due to the level of disturbance the project site is subject to from events taking place onsite (i.e., pop up farmers markets, trailer shows, etc.) the project site does not have the potential to support special -
status plants. Further,
any potential seed base for special-status plants has been removed from decades of land uses and surrounding
development. The surrounding development and land
uses onsite have also precluded special- status species from occurring onsite due to continually anthropogenic
disturbances. As a result, the survey that was conducted was able to capture the site’s ability to support or not support suitable habitat for special -
status species. No
further surveys are needed or recommended, and no
further action is required in response to this comment.

3-5
Comment noted. MM BIO-1 has been revised as follows:

If unavoidable project construction activities must begin during the nesting bird season (February 1st through
August 31st), a pre-construction nesting bird survey shall be conducted no more than 14 days prior to initiation of ground disturbance and vegetation removal activities.

The nesting pre -construction bird survey shall be
conducted by a biologist familiar with identification of avian species known to occur in Riverside County. The
nesting bird survey shall be conducted on foot inside the project boundary, including a 300 -foot buffer for
passerines (song birds) and 500-foot buffer for raptors in areas of suitable habitat. Inaccessible areas will be
surveyed using binoculars to the extent practical. If nests are found, an avoidance buffer (dependent upon species, the proposed work activity, the existing disturbances
associated with land use s outside of the site) shall be determined and demarcated by the biologist with bright
orange construction fencing, flagging, construction lathe, or other means to mark the boundary. If a raptor nest is observed in a tree proposed for removal, the applican t must consult with CDFW. All construction personnel be
notified of the existence of the buffer zone and to avoid entering the buffer zone during nesting season. No
ground disturbing activities shall occur within this buffer Item 2B - Page 235

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS

area until the avian biologist has confirmed the
breeding/nesting is completed and the young have
fledged. Encroachment into the buffer shall occur only at the discretion of the qualified biologist.

Nesting bird surveys shall be performed by a qualified
avian biologist no more than (3) days prior to vegetation removal or ground-disturbing activities. Pre-construction surveys shall focus on both direct and indirect evidence of nesting, including nest locations and nesting behavior.

The qualified avian biologist will make every effort to avoid potential nest predation as a result of survey and monitoring efforts. If active nests are found during the preconstruction nesting bird surveys, a qualified biologist shall establish an appropriate nest buffer to be marked on the ground. Nest buffers are species specific and shall be at least 300 feet for passerines and 500 feet for raptors. A smaller or larger buffer may be determined by the
qualified biologist familiar with the nesting phenology of the nesting species and based on nest and buffer
monitoring results. Established buffers shall remain on site until a qualified biologist determines the young have fledged or the nest is no longer active. Active nests and adequacy of the established buffer distance shall be
monitored daily by the qualified biologist until the
qualified biologist has determined the young have fledged or the Project has been completed. The qualified biologist has the authority to stop work if nesting pairs exhibit signs of disturbance.

Comment noted. MM BIO-2 has been revised as follows:

The applicant shall pay the CVMSHCP Local Development
Mitigation Fee prior to building permit issuance.

Prior to construction and issuance of any grading permit, the City of Palm Springs shall ensure compliance with the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP) and its associated Implementing
Agreement and shall ensure the collection of payment of the CVMSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee.

Comment noted. As noted in comment response 3-4, the
project site is heavily disturbed, surrounded by existing development and is subject to routine anthropogenic
disturbances associated with events occurring onsite.

Item 2B - Page 236

RESPONSE TO COMMENTS

Due to these disturbances and surrounding
development, the project site does not have the
potential to support a seed base for special-status plants or support suitable habitat for any of the special-status species known to occur in the area. The special-status
plant species listed in this comment primarily occur in undisturbed native desert scrub habitats, which do not
occur onsite. Suggested Mitigation Measure BIO-3 does
not need to be conducted to determine
presence/absence of special-status species onsite and
will not be included in the MMRP. No further action is
required in response to this comment.
3-8
Comment noted. The City of Palm Springs has found
that, although the Biological Assessment performed by
ELMT is sufficient for the proposed project, CDFW’s
recommended mitigation measure should be included in
the document. The following will be included as MM
BIO-3:

Pre-c
onstruction burrowing owl surveys shall be
conducted no less than 14 days prior to the start of
Project-related activities and within 24 hours prior to ground disturbance, in accordance with the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFG 2012 or most recent
version). Pre construction surveys should be performed
by a qualified biologist following the recommendations
and guidelines provided in the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation. If the pre-construction surveys confirm occupied burrowing owl habitat, Project activities shall be immediately halted. The qualified biologist shall
coordinate with CDFW and USFWS to conduct an impact
assessment to develop avoidance and minimization
measures to be approved by CDFW prior to commencing
Project activities.
3-9
Comment noted. Desert tortoise clearance surveys do
not need to be conducted due to the site’s isolation from occupied habitat, onsite disturbance, and surrounding
development. Suggested Mitigation Measure BIO-5 does

37 Detailed VMT Forecasting Information
Most trip-based models generate daily person trip-ends for each TAZ across various trip purposes (HBW, HBO, and NHB, for example) based on population, household , and employment variables.

This may create challenges for complying with the VMT guidance because trip generation is not directly tied to specific land use categories. The following me thodology addresses this particular challenge among others.

P r o d u c t i o n a n d a t t r a c t i o n t r i p - e n d s a r e s e p a r a t e l y c a l c u l a t e d for each zone, and generally:
production trip-ends are generated by residential land uses and attraction trip-ends are generated by non-residential land uses. OPR's guidance addresses resident ial, office, and retail land uses.

Focusing on residential and office land uses, the first step to forecasting VMT requires translating the land use into model terms, the closest approximations are:
x Residential: home-based production trips
x Office: home-based work attraction trips
Note that this excludes all non- home-based trips including wor k-based other and other-based other trips.

The challenges with computing VMT for these two types of trips in a trip-based model are 1) production and attraction trip-ends are not distinguishable after the PA to OD conversion process and 2) trip purposes are not maintained after the mode choice s tep. For these reasons, it not possible to use the VMT results from the standard vehicle assignment (even using a select zone re- assignment). A separate post-process must be developed to re-es timate VMT for each zone that includes trip-end types and trip purposes.

The procedure for extracting VMT from the model is described below:
x Re-skim final loaded congested networks for each mode and time period x Run a custom PA to OD process that replicates actual model steps, but:
o Keeps departure and return trips separate
o Keeps trip purpose and mode separate
o Converts person trips to vehicle trips based on auto occupancy rates and isolates automobile trips
o Factors vehicle trips into assignment time periods
x Multiply appropriate distance skim matrices by custom OD matrices to estimate VMT x Sum matrices by time period, mode, and trip purpose to calculate daily automobile VMT x Calculate automobile VMT for individual TAZs using marginal totals:
o Residential (home-based) - row of departure matrix plus column of return matrix o Office (home-based work) - column of departure matrix plus row of return matrix Item 2B - Page 248
City of Palm Springs TIA Guidelines
July 2020
38 Appropriateness Checks
Regardless of which method is used, the number of vehicle trips from the custom PA to OD process and the total VMT should match as closely as possible with the results from the traditional model p r o c e s s . T h e e s t i m a t e d r e s u l t s should be checked against the re sults from a full model run to understand the degree of accuracy. Note that depending on how each model is setup, these custom processes may or may not include IX/XI trips, truck trips, or special generator trips (airport, seaport, stadium, etc.).

When calculating VMT for comparison at the study area, citywide, or regional geography, the same methodology that was used to estimate project-specific VMT shou ld be used. The VMT for these comparisons can be easily calculated by aggregating the row or column totals for all zones that are within the desired geography.

PROJECT TRIP GENERATION
Trip  generation  represents  the  amount  of  traffic  which  is  both  attracted  to  and  produced  by  a development. Determining traffic generation for a specific project is therefore based upon forecasting the amount of traffic that is expected to be both attracted to and produced by the specific land uses being proposed for a given development.

Trip  generation  rates  used  to  estimate  Project
traffic  are  shown  in  Table  1.  Table  1  also  shows  a summary of the Project’s trip generation.  The  proposed Project is anticipated  to generate a total of approximately  457  trip‐ends  per  day  with  22  vehicles  per  hour  during  the  AM  peak  hour  and  49 vehicles per hour during the PM peak hour.

TRIP DISTRIBUTION AND TRIP ASSIGNMENT
The trip distribution pattern is heavily influenced by the geographical location of the site, the location of surrounding  uses,  and  the  proximity  to  the  regional  freeway  system.  Exhibit   3  displays  the  estimated Project traffic distribution pattern.

Based  on  the  identified  Project  traffic  generation  and  estimated  trip  distribution  pattern,  Project  peak hour intersection tur ning movement volumes are shown on Exhibit 4 for morning and evening peak hours, respectively.

GENERAL PLAN CIRCULATION ELEMENT
Exhibit 5 shows the City of Palm Springs Circulation Plan, and Exhibit 6 illustrates the City of Palm Springs Typical Street Cross‐Sections.

Palm Canyon Drive – Palm Canyon Drive is a north‐south oriented roadway located east of the Project and classified as a 4‐lane divided major thoroughfare in the City of Palm Springs Circulation Plan.  Palm Canyon Drive Road currently exists as a 3‐lane roadway, adj acent to the Project site.

Belardo  Road  –  Belardo  Road  is  a  north‐south  oriented  roadway  located  west  of  the  Project  and classified as a 2‐lane local roadway in the City of Palm Springs Circulatio n Plan.

Chino Drive – Chino Drive is an east‐west oriented roadway located south of the Project and classified as a 2‐lane local roadway in the City of Palm Springs Circulation Plan.

TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS (TIA) CRITERIA
Per the City of Palm Springs Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines (July 2020), the proposed Project does not generate enough traffic to warrant a formal traffic impact analysis.  One of the exemptions for preparing a traffic impact analysis is if the Project generates less than 100 vehicle trips during the peak hours and less than 150 dwelling units.

SITE ACCESS
A full access entry to the Project is provided via Belardo Road (west of Palm Canyon Drive).  Peak hour turn volumes shown on Exhibit 4 illustrates that the entering and exiting project traffic at the Project driveway is less than 50 vehicles per hour.  Based  on the projected low peak hour turn volumes at the project driv
eway, cross‐street stop control the Project driveway location is appropriate.

CONCLUSION REGARDING TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
As mentioned previously, the City of Palm Springs Traffic Impact Guidelines indicate that traffic analysis is generally required when a proposed project consist of 150 or more multi‐family units and will add 100 or more peak hour trips to an adjacent intersection.  The project has less than 150 multi‐family units and traffic  contribution  to  the  nearest  intersections  of  Belardo  Road/Chino  Drive  and Palm  Canyon
Drive/Chino  Drive  are  minimal.   Therefore,  a  formal  traffic  impact  analysis  is  not  required  for  the Project site.

If you have any questions, please contact John Kain at (949) 375‐2435 or Marlie Whiteman (714) 585‐ 0574.

PALM CANYON MULTI-FAMILY VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED (VMT) SCREENING

EVALUATION
Mr. Peter Mahler,
Urban Crossroads, Inc. is pleased to provide the following Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Screening Evaluation for the Palm Canyon Multi-Family development (Project) located on a vacant lot north of W. Chino Drive and west of Palm Canyon Drive in the City of Palm Springs (See Attachment A).

PROJECT OVERVIEW
It is our understanding that the Project is propos ed to consist of approximately 24 multi-family residential units and 5,411 square feet of retail (See Attachment A).

BACKGROUND
Changes to California Environmen tal Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelin es were adopted in December 2018, which require all lead agencies to adopt VMT as a replacement for automobile delay-based level of service (LOS) as the measure for identifying transportation impacts for land use projects.

T hi s stat ewi d e m and at e we nt i nto e f fe ct Jul y 1 , 2 02 0. T o ai d in thi s tr a nsi t i on, th e Go v er n or ’ s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) released a Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation Impacts in CEQA (December of 2018) (Technical Advisory) (1). Based on the Technical Advisory, the City of Palm Springs has developed and adopte d the Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines (July 2020) ( City Guidelines ) (2). Riverside County has develo ped and adopted the Transportation Analysis Guidelines for Level of Service, Vehicle Miles Traveled (December 2020) ( County Guidelines) (3).

The City VMT Guidelines reference the use of the Riverside County Transportation Analysis Model (RIVTAM / RIVCOM), which is used throughout the Coachella Valley and in all of Riverside County for VMT screening and analysis pu rposes. The City criteria and th resholds for VMT analysis are based upon RIVTAM modeling.

VMT SCREENING
Projects that meet certain VMT screening criteria m a y b e p r e s u m e d t o r e s u l t i n a l e s s t h a n significant transportation impact, including the following:
 Project Type Screening
 Projects Near High Quality Transit
 Map-Based Screening
A land use project need only meet one of the above screening criteria to result in a less than significant impact.

PROJECT TYPE SCREENING
Small projects such as retail buildings with area less than or equal to 50,000 square feet and multi-family residential projects less than or equal to 16 dwe lling units based upon City policy and less than or equal to 147 dwelling units base d on County thresholds may be presumed to have a less than significant impact.

The Project is proposing 5,411 square feet of retail which is a lower quantity than the City and County retail criteria. The Project is also pr oposing 24 residential dwelling units which exceeds the City criteria of 16 dwelling units but is well below the County criteria of 147 dwelling units.

The Project Type screening threshold is met for the retail use.

PROJECTS NEAR HIGH QUALITY TRANSIT
Projects located within a Transit Priority Area (TPA) (i.e., within ½ mile of an existing “major transit stop”1 or an existing stop along a “high-quality transit corridor”2) may be presumed to have a less than significant impact absent substantial evidence to the contrary.

Southern California Councils of Governments (SCAG) provides TPA data through their graphical information system (GIS). This data was utilized to locate if the Project site and its proximity to a TPA. Results as shown in Attachment B, identify the Project Site is located in a high-quality transit area.

TPA screening criteria is met.

1 Pub. Resources Code, § 21064.3 (“‘Major transit stop’ means a site containing an existing rail transit station, a ferry terminal served by either a bus or rail transit service, or the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoo n peak commute periods.”).
2 Pub. Resources Code, § 21155 (“For purposes of this section, a high‐quality transit corridor means a corridor with fixed route bus service with service intervals no longer than 15 minutes during peak commute hours.”).

MAP-BASED SCREENING
As noted in the Technical Advisory , “Residential and office projects that locate in areas with low VMT and that incorporate similar features (density, mix of uses, and transit accessibility) will tend to exhibit similarly low VMT.”
Based on the Daily VMT per Se rvice Population Co mpared to City Average (2012) map (see Attachment C), the Project is not found to be located within a low VMT generating zone.

Map-based screening criteria is not met.

CONCLUSION
Based on our review of applicable VMT screening thresholds, the Project meets the Project Type criteria for the retail use and the Projects Near High Quality Transit criteria for both residential and retail uses. The Project would therefore result in a less than significant VMT impact finding.

No additional VMT analysis is required.

BUSINESS PRINCIPAL DISCLOSURE:

The Public Integrity Disclosure Form is included as an Attachment E to this report.

BACKGROUND:

Desert Peak Energy, LLC, received approval by the Planning Commission on June 22, 2022, to construct a battery storage facility on land owned by Wintec Energy, LTD (“Applicants”). The facility is being developed on approximately 78 acres of a larger 357- acre site and consist s of up to 728 battery containers which will be installed on the property in two phases. Pursuant to Palm Springs Municipal Code Chapter 3.37, the applicant was required to pay $375,000 in public art fees as a condition of approval of the development. The applicant paid the public art fee upon issuance of the building permit for the project in December 2022.

In January 2023, the Applicants submitted a proposal for the Project on property to the south of the battery storage facility. The proposal was considered by the Public Arts Commission on February 15, 2023; the commission voted to deny the request by a vote of 5 to 0. A review of the Public Arts Commission discussion and action is provided in a later section of this report. A member of the City Council filed a formal request with the City Clerk on February 20, 2023, to review the decision of the Public Arts Commission.

STAFF ANALYSIS:

Chapter 3.37 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code (PSMC) requires a property owner to provide artwork or pay a development fee to the Public Arts Fund as part of new or reconstructed commercial or industrial development, and also for certain residential development. T he cost of the provided artwork or amount of the fee to be paid to the Public Arts Fund is based on a formula relative to the value of the proposed development.

The fee is to be paid prior to the issuance of a building permit; when a property owner provides the artwork, the fee is reimbursed to the property owner upon installation of the approved artwork on the developed property. Fees paid to the Public Arts Fund may be used by the Public Arts Commission for the installation of public art in public venues.

Artwork provided by a property owner must be approved by the Public Arts Commission prior to installation.

City Council Staff Report

Desert Peak Energy/Wintec Public Art Project

Project Description : The Applicants have proposed an art project that is intended to celebrate the renewable energy industry and its start in the Palm Springs area. The Project will utilize repurposed wind turbine blades and other artifacts as part of the display.

Murals will be painted on a collection of various types of recycled windmill blades arranged in both vertical and horizontal displays. Local artists will be engaged to create the art pieces on the turbine blades, focusing on the themes of climate change and green causes. In addition, the Applicants have proposed to include an original 1982 wind turbine generator (the “Carter Wind Turbine”) as part of the installation.

The proposed Project will be located on the property at 62950 20 th Avenue, which is the
site of the Palm Springs Windmill Tours. The justification for not locating the Project on the same parcel as the battery storage facility is due to the fact that the battery storage site will be fenced and inaccessible to the publ ic; in addition, the Windmill Tours site is adjacent to the I-10 Freeway and has greater visibility and access for the general public.

The budget for the Project is estimated at a total of $575,000. Approximately $200,000 will be in -kind donations from Wintec Energy, which includes the provision of windmill blades, the Carter Wind Turbine, project management fees, and engineering and permitting fees. A majority of the project budget will go towards the construction of foundations for the vertical windmill blades and the restoration/installation of the Carter Wind Turbine. Approximately $20,000 of the budget will be provided as an honorarium for artists to paint artwork or murals on the windmill blades. The applicants paid $375,000 in public art fees as part of the building permit application process for the battery storage facility and would be eligible for reimbursement of the fees pursuant to PSMC Section

3.37.130 upon installation of the Project.

A detailed description of the Project proposal and budget is included in Attachment B to this report.

Public Arts Commission Action
: The Public Arts Commission reviewed the application at their meeting of February 15, 2023, and voted to deny the application by a vote of 5 to 0.

The commissioners identified the following concerns with the Project relative to the requirements of the Public Arts Ordinance:

• The majority of funding for the project will be used for foundation work and restoration of the Carter Wind Turbine; the commissioners questioned whether the use of funds for this type of work was allowable pursuant to PSMC Section

3.37.040(d) (“Permissible Expenditures”).
• The $20,000 allocation for the artists’ honorarium represents a minor portion of the overall budget for the Project, which appears to be inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the Public Art program, and the actual artwork will be a minor component of the overall installation.
• The Applicants did not identify the artist or provide any sketches of the proposed work, as required by PSMC Section 3.37.110(3) (“Application Procedures”).

Item 3B - Page 3
City Council Staff Report
March 9, 2023 -- Page 4
Desert Peak Energy/Wintec Public Art Project

• The commissioners also raised concerns about the location of the artwork, and whether the installation would have limited accessibility.

Based on these concerns, the commission voted to deny the application. A n excerpt of the minutes from the meeting and a copy of the meeting action summary are included as Attachment C to this report.

Council Review of the Public Arts Commission Decision
: PSMC Section 2.06.030
establishes the procedures for councilmember review of decisions of board and commissions that would not otherwise be forwarded to the City Council. The code requires that a councilmember provide written notice to the City Clerk within 15 days following the date of the action which is the subject of the review. A councilmember filed a request for review of the Project with the City Clerk on February 20, 2023.

In considering the application, the City Council shall set aside the action of the board or commission and shall conduct a de novo review. The following paragraphs provide a discussion of the issues raised by the Public Arts Commission, and an assessment by staff relative to the applicable requirements of the Public Arts Ordinance (PSMC Chapter

3.37).

In considering this application, it should be noted that the development for which the public art fees were required, and the proposed theme of the Project are unique, and a certain degree of latitude may be appropriate in considering the application request. As noted by the Applicants, the art piece intends to celebrate the renewable energy industry and its start in Palm Springs, which serves as a justification for utilizing windmill blades and the Carter Wind Turbine as the principal components for the installation.

In responding to the concerns of the Public Arts Commission on the appropriate use Public Art funds for the Project, PSMC Section 3.37.040(d) stipulates that funds may be used for:
• The costs associated with the purchase and installation of the artwork; • Pedestals or other objects which are necessary for the proper presentation of the artwork; and
• Administrative expenses, such as permitting and project management.

Similarly, the code identifies ineligible expenditures, which include reproductions of original artwork, mass-produced artwork, non-artist designed landscape or architectural elements, and rehabilitation or preservation of historic buildings. Should the City Council determine that the Carter Wind Turbine is an integral component of the overall art installation, the use of funds for its refurbishment and installation would be appropriate.

The Public Arts Commission also identified an issue with the percentage of the project budget that would be directly attributed to the creation of artwork on the windmill blades; the Applicants have proposed that $20,000 of the overall $575,000 project budget be Item 3B - Page 4
City Council Staff Report
March 9, 2023 -- Page 5
Desert Peak Energy/Wintec Public Art Project

utilized for artwork. While this is a considerably minor amount based on the overall budget, it may be appropriate to consider the arrangement of the windmill blades as part of the overall composition of the artwork, and not just the painting of the windmill blades.

Consequently, the City Council may find that all of the components comprise the artwork, and that the distribution of the budget is appropriate based on the unique characteristics of the Project.

Another issue identified by the commission was the fact that the Applicants did not identify the artists or submit images of the proposed artwork as required by PSMC Section

3.37.110. It is recommended that the Applicants provide the artist biographies and proposed sketches to the City for review and approval prior to installation; this requirement is included as a condition of approval of the application.

The Public Arts Ordinance grants the City Council latitude in the reimbursement of public art fees. PSMC Section 3.37.070(f) allows the City Council to waive the requirements of the Public Arts Ordinance, subject to an agreement with the applicant, and provided that the approval is consistent with the purpose and intent of the ordinance. Staff would make the following findings in support of the Project:

1) The Project is consistent with the purpose of the Public Arts Ordinance in that it will enhance the economic vitality of the community and unique character of Palm Springs by celebrating the renewable energy industry and its place in the city’s history.
2) The Project is consistent with the funding requirements of PSMC Section

3.37.040(c), in that funding will go towards the purchase of components , construction of foundations, installation, artwork, and administrative expenses related to the Project.
3) The Project is consistent with PSMC 3.37.080 relative to the placement of the artwork, in that the proposed site will be open and accessible to the public.

Waiver Request – Project Location
: The Public Arts Ordinance requires that public art
provided by a property owner be installed on the property that is being developed. PSMC Section 3.37.080 requires that the art be placed in an outdoor area that is accessible and used by the public a minimum of 18 hours per day; indoor locations may be eligible if accessible to the public a minimum of 12 hours per day.

The Applicants have requested to install the Project on a parcel that is separate from the battery storage facility. As previously noted, the request is based on the fact that the battery storage parcel is fenced and inaccessible to the public; therefore, the parcel would not be in compliance with the Public Art Ordinance. As a solution to this issue, it is proposed that the Project would be located on the site of the Palm Springs Windmill Tours, located on 20
th Avenue adjacent to the I -10 Freeway. This site would comply with the accessibility requirements of the code and would provide greater visibility of the artwork.

A map showing the location of the Project site relative to the battery storage facility site is included below.

Desert Peak Energy/Wintec Public Art Project

Off-site art installations for artwork provided by an applicant cannot be approved by the Public Arts Commission. However, PSMC Section 3.37.070(f) allows the City Council to waive the requirements of the Public Art Ordinance provided the requested deviation address the goals of the ordinance “…in a manner equally or more favorable to the city than would be achieved by strict compliance with this chapter.” It is staff’s assessment that the off-site installation meets the goals of the ordinance by providing greater visibility and accessibility to the proposed artwork.

Item 3B - Page 6

City Council Staff Report
March 9, 2023 -- Page 7
Desert Peak Energy/Wintec Public Art Project

Waiver Request – Reimbursement of Funds : The Applicants have requested that the $375,000 of Public Arts Funds be reimbursed prior to installation of the artwork , rather than after the Project is completed. PSMC Section 3.37.070(c) requires that the public art fees be paid upfront prior to the issuance of a building permit; pursuant to PSMC Section 3.37.130, reimbursement of these funds is provided after the artwork has been installed, approved by the Public Arts Commission, and accepted by the City.

The procedural requirements of this process can be somewhat problematic for applicants, in that they are required to pay public art funds to the City to receive a building permit and then must pay that same amount of money (or more) to install the artwork before receiving a reimbursement. Conversely, the City must ensure that the artwork is installed in accordance with the approval granted by the Public Arts Commission as a means to guarantee compliance with the ordinance.

As a solution to this issue, the Applicants may enter into an agreement with the City which will establish the terms for the reimbursement of the funds in advance of installation of the artwork. These terms would include the requirement for all invoices to be submitted to the City for review and approval, schedule for completion of the Project, and issuance of a certificate of occupancy once the work is completed in accordance with the approved design. The agreement would also establish penalties for failure to comply with the terms of the agreement. The requirement for an agreement has been included in the approving resolution for this application.

PUBLIC ART PROPOSAL

ARTISTS COMMEMORATION OF PALM SPRINGS RENEWABLE ENERGY HISTORY

THE PROJECT
Desert Peak Energy Center proposes a Public Arts Project celebrating the birth of the renewable industry in Palm Springs. It will involve creation of murals and other artistic works to be painted on a collection of various types of recycled windmill blades to be placed in a vertical array installed in connection with the restoration of and re­ installation of Palm Springs first windmill. Funded by the $375,000 public art fee paid to the City in connection with the construction of NextEra's large utility grade battery facility currently under construction and additional funding of approximately $200,000 donated in kind by Wintec Energy.

Palm Springs and the surrounding area is arguably becoming the renewable energy capital of California with its modern wind and solar facilities and now NextEra's under construction largest battery project in California. The public interest in the history and future of wind energy has attracted large numbers of tourists and locals to visit the existing windmill energy museum currently located on the site of the Windmill Tour facility. This Project is conceived so that posterity will know how it all began, here in Palm Springs. The Museum and the surrounding art installation will be open to the public during regular business hours at no charge.

THE LOCATION
The artist's array and the refurbished original windmill will be located adjacent to the site of the current Windm ill Tour Facility and Museum, at the east entrance to the San Gorgonio Pass adjacent to Interstate 10 between Indian Canyon and Highway 62 at 62950 20th Avenue, Palm Springs. The project will be adjacent to an existing outdoor exhibit area displaying many original windmills so that the evolution of design and size may be experienced.

THE PROPOSAL
The Project is being proposed by Desert Peak Energy and Wintec Energy, LTD. Desert Peak Energy proposes using the $375,000 Public Art Fee it recently paid to the City to help create the Project In addition to the Public Arts Fee Wintec Energy will underwrite the additional in kind expenses which are estimated to be approximately $200,000.

Item 3B - Page 15
That will include contributing land rights for the art displays, windmill blades and other artifacts, renewable energy exhibits and staffing.

Wintec Energy will also donate the original Carter 25kW Wind Turbine generator to the project. It is the first wind turbine installed in Palm Springs in 1982 and marks the start of wind energy in Palm Springs. It stood on a 80-foot pole and was held in place with guy wires along four compass points. The turbine is a valuable artifact because it stands in stark contrast to the surrounding wind turbines and acts as a clear example of the innovations achieved in harnessing wind energy. Of the over 200 such windmills installed in Palm Springs the Carter Wind Turbine is the only one left of that groundbreaking step in renewable energy. As new innovations in wind energy were developed the turbine became obsolete and preserved in storage since its removal in 1987. As part of the Project it will be restored to operating condition and reinstalled by local experts with knowledge of the windmill. Fortunately original operat ing and installation documents still exist in Wintec's archives.

The project will also focus on creating and displaying an outdoor art exhibit made from repurposed wind turbine blades and other artifacts . An assortment of windmill blades ranging from 30 feet to 80 feet in length will be donated to the Project by Wintec and others. Local artists will be asked to bond their artistic vision to the blades to create art pieces dedicated to "save the planet", "climate change", "Palm Springs as a leader in green causes" and similar themes. Such a theme was pioneered on a single windmill blade currently located at the Palm Springs Art Museum in the heart of downtown Palm Springs. After completion, the blades will be installed both vertically, and in some cases horizontally, on concrete foundations and will form an attractive grouping of the artists' work. The blades decorated by local artists and visible from the 1-10 will be lit at night so that the quality of art is exhibited to all.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
The overall Project will be managed by Wintec Energy under supervision of Desert Peak.

As such they will oversee the exhibits which will be curated by experts in the field of renewable energy. Blade art and artists will be supervised by the lead Artistic Director.

TIMELINE

RE: Support Letter from Desert Peak Regarding Cultural/Public Arts Project Located at 62950 20th Avenue , Palm Springs, California (Item Hl on February 15, 2023's Public Arts Commission Agenda)
Dear Commissioners,
Desert Peak Energy Center, LLC (Desert Peak), an indirect and wholly -owned subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources, is currently develop ing and constructing a 700 MW, util ity-scale battery storage project in two phases, located at the northern border of the City of Palm Springs. When complete , this battery w ill be one of the largest batteries deployed in the world - a testament to the City of Palm Springs' commitment toward s developing critica l energy infrastructure. Desert Peak also continues NextEra Energy Resources' long history of investing in the City of Palm Springs, Riverside County, and the state of California in enabling renewables and improving grid resiliency.

In November 2022, Desert Peak paid a public arts fee of $375,000 in connection with the issuance of the building permits for this battery storage project. Desert Peak's original plan was to provide an in-kind, artistic/cultural improvement proposal in cooperation with Wintec Energy in lieu of paying the pub lic arts fee . However, due to delays in the issuance of the build ing permit processes and a critical timeline in commencing construc tion in order to provide critica l grid capacity by the summer of 2023, Desert Peak funded the public arts fee in advance of the in-kind process in orde r to secure building permit s to meet our construction schedule.

Item 3B - Page 18
Desert Peak Energy Center, LLC
700 Universe Blvd, Juno Beach, FL 33408
At this time, we are excited that Wintec Energy has proceeded with design of the in-kind project located at 62950 20th Avenue, Palm Springs, CA 92262, as described in the proposal filed with you. We are part icularly pleased that the original wind turbine installed in the San Gorgon io Pass in 1982 will be restored and put back into service as an operating cultural exhibit . This wil l be a valuable artifact testifying to the long history of successful wind development powering the local Palm Springs area both electrically and economically. We under stand that the project will have a dedicate d parking lot, and appropriate monument signs describing the project and the circumstances of the project 's installat ion and operation . We recognize that the project will be installed on property adjacent to Inter state 10 and easily available to the public, especially given our battery project site is not easily accessible.

We are particu larly pleased that part of the project involves re purposing original windmill blade s in a fashion which will outline famous histo rical structures such as the Parthenon , Stonehenge, and a sundial composed of a 60-foot orig inal windmill blade together with appropriate hour marke rs. So much of the history of the Coachella Valley has been lost to the historical record, but this is a chance to preserve the unique history of renewable energy as it evolved here in Palm Springs to the benefit of fut ure generations . These improvement s will be available to tourists, families and particularly schoolchi ldren who wil l tour these facilities as wel l as an already existing solar generating facil ity, at no cost.

Desert Peak Energy Center, LLC respectfully requests that you refund our $375,000 public arts fee so that we may contract with Wintec Energy for thi s project or that the Public Arts Commission contracts with Wintec directly for this project, as the Commission sees fit.

To conclude, we strong ly support Wintec Energy's application for approval of this project and urge you to vote in the affirmative at the hearing on February 15th. Please do not hesitate to contact me at dexter.liu@n extera energy.com if you have any questions.

Sincerely,
Dexter Liu
Executive Director

EXCERPT OF MINUTES

At the Public Arts Commission meeting of the City of Palm Springs , held February 15, 2023, the Public Arts Commission took the following action:

H1. Consider request from Desert Peak Energy and Wintec Energy, LTD, for reimbursement of Public Art Funds in the amount of $375,000 for a public art project located at 62950 20th Avenue, Palm Springs.

Director Virata provided an overview of the application request.

Members of the Public Arts Commission offered the following comments regarding the application:
• Fees paid into the Public Art Fund are generally for an original work of art commissioned with an artist; no representation of the artwork was provided with the application, nor was an artist identified.
• The only aspect of original art identified in the application is for the painting of the wind turbine blades, which is estimated to be approximately $20,000 of the overall project cost; this seems to fall shor t of the justification for a refund of the Public Art fees.
• The proposed artwork does not meet the requirements of PSMC Section

3.37.070, in that the amount expended on art must be equal to the program allocation.
• The majority of the budget is for refurbis hing or restoring windmills, and a limited amount of the project budget is allocated to artwork. • The Public Art Fund is only allowed to fund art, and not for structures or refurbishing a building; the commission questioned if there is a way to define the entire installation as art.
• The commission cited the example of the sculpture “Isabelle,” which was installed by the property owner of the Rowan Hotel development, in that the work was completed by a world-renowned artist and renderings of the actual art piece were provided to the commission for review prior to installation. • The project is quite different in approach and scale than any other application that has come before the commission, but the amount dedicated to artwork is a small portion of the budget.
• The commission questioned the amount of budget used for foundation and site work; t he applicant noted that the cost of the foundation work is necessary to support the vertical installation of the blades, and that Public Art Funds may be used for such purposes.
• There is not a lot of art in the proposal; there are windmill blades, but the art is lacking.
• The commission suggested that the blade pieces should be brought closer to the community where more residents would have access to view them. • It was stated that the project was a good idea, but needs to be reworked.

PUBLIC ART PROPOSAL

ARTISTS COMMEMORATION OF PALM SPRINGS RENEWABLE ENERGY HISTORY

THE PROJECT
Desert Peak Energy Center proposes a Public Arts Project celebrating the birth of the renewable industry in Palm Springs. It will involve creation of murals and other artistic works to be painted on a collection of various types of recycled windmill blades to be placed in a vertical array installed in connection with the restoration of and re- installation of Palm Springs first windmill. Funded by the $375,000 public art fee paid to the City in connection with the construction of NextEra’s large utility grade battery facility currently under construction and additional funding of approximately $200,000 donated in kind by Wintec Energy.

Palm Springs and the surrounding area is arguably becoming the renewable energy capital of California with its modern wind and solar facilities and now NextEra’s under construction largest battery project in California. The public interest in the history and future of wind energy has attracted large numbers of tourists and locals to visit the existing windmill energy museum currently located on the site of the Windmill Tour facility. This Project is conceived so that posterity will know how it all began, here in Palm Springs. The Museum and the surrounding art installation will be open to the public during regular business hours at no charge.

THE LOCATION
The artist’s array and the refurbished original windmill will be located adjacent to the site of the current Windmill Tour Facility and Museum, at the east entrance to the San Gorgonio Pass adjacent to Interstate 10 between Indian Canyon and Highway 62 at 62950 20
th Avenue, Palm Springs. The project will be adjacent to an existing outdoor exhibit area displaying many original windmills so that the evolution of design and size may be experienced.

THE PROPOSAL
The Project is being proposed by Desert Peak Energy and Wintec Energy, LTD. Desert Peak Energy proposes using the $375,000 Public Art Fee it recently paid to the City to help create the Project In addition to the Public Arts Fee Wintec Energy will underwrite the additional in kind expenses which are estimated to be approximately $200,000.

Item 3B - Page 31

That will include contributing land rights for the art displays, windmill blades and other artifacts, renewable energy exhibits and staffing.

Wintec Energy will also donate the original Carter 25kW Wind Turbine generator to the project. It is the first wind turbine installed in Palm Springs in 1982 and marks the start of wind energy in Palm Springs. It stood on a 80-foot pole and was held in place with guy wires along four compass points. The turbine is a valuable artifact because it stands in stark contrast to the surrounding wind turbines and acts as a clear example of the innovations achieved in harnessing wind energy. Of the over 200 such windmills installed in Palm Springs the Carter Wind Turbine is the only one left of that groundbreaking step in renewable energy. As new innovations in wind energy were developed the turbine became obsolete and preserved in storage since its removal in 1987. As part of the Project it will be restored to operating condition and reinstalled by local experts with knowledge of the windmill. Fortunately original operating and installation documents still exist in Wintec’s archives.

The project will also focus on creating and displaying an outdoor art exhibit made from repurposed wind turbine blades and other artifacts. An assortment of windmill blades ranging from 30 feet to 80 feet in length will be donated to the Project by Wintec and others. Local artists will be asked to bond their artistic vision to the blades to create art pieces dedicated to “save the planet”, “climate change”, “Palm Springs as a leader in green causes” and similar themes. Such a theme was pioneered on a single windmill blade currently located at the Palm Springs Art Museum in the heart of downtown Palm Springs. After completion, the blades will be installed both vertically, and in some cases horizontally, on concrete foundations and will form an attractive grouping of the artists’ work. The blades decorated by local artists and visible from the I-10 will be lit at night so that the quality of art is exhibited to all.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
The overall Project will be managed by Wintec Energy under supervision of Desert Peak.

As such they will oversee the exhibits which will be curated by experts in the field of renewable energy. Blade art and artists will be supervised by the lead Artistic Director.

Item 3B - Page 32

TIMELINE
The timeline for the Project will commence upon allocation of funds of the Desert Peak mandatory Art fees. The overall timeline to complete the project will be approximately 270 days. The following list is anticipated timelines for each facet of the overall plan and the necessary requirements to complete the Project:

SUBJECT: REQUEST TO ADD CHAPTER 5.89 TO THE PALM SPRINGS MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO SIDEWALK VENDING ; AN AMENDMENT TO
CHAPTER 5.48 RELATIVE TO COMMERCIAL SOLICITATION ; AND

FROM: Teresa Gallavan, Interim City Manager

BY: Flinn Fagg, Deputy City Manager

SUMMARY:

This is a request to add Chapter 5.89 to the Palm Springs Municipal Code (PSMC) to establish regulations for sidewalk vending in residential and commercial neighborhoods.

In addition, it is proposed to amend PSMC Chapter 5.48 (Solicitation Commercial and Charitable) to distinguish sidewalk vending from the existing commercial solicitation regulations, and to amend PSMC Chapter 6.15 relating to the regulations for Mobile Food Vending Vehicles (food trucks). These topics were discussed at the City Council meeting of November 28, 2022; the draft ordinance included with this staff report incorporates regulations based on the direction provided by councilmembers at that meeting.

RECOMMENDATION:

1. Waive the reading of the ordinance text in its entirety and read by title only; and

2. Introduce on first reading Ordinance No. ____, “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER 5.89 TO THE PALM

SPRINGS MUNICIPAL CODE, ESTABLISHING REGULATIONS ON SIDEWALK VENDING IN COMPLIANCE WITH SENATE BILL 946 ; AN AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 5.48 RELATIVE TO COMMERCIAL SOLICITATION; AND
AMENDMENTS TO CHAPTER 6.15 RELATIVE TO MOBILE FOOD VENDING VEHICLES.”

BACKGROUND:

Senate Bill 946 (SB 946) was signed into law in 2018 and establishes protections for sidewalk vending activities. While municipalities may adopt regulations pertaining to Item 3C - Page 1
City Council Staff Report
March 9, 2023 -- Page 2
Sidewalk Vending/Mobile Food Vending Vehicle Ordinance

sidewalk vending, such regulations must be consistent with SB 946. The legislation includes the following:

• Prohibits cities from limiting the total number of sidewalk vendors. • Prohibits cities from imposing sidewalk vending regulations within specific parts of the public right-of-way or within certain neighborhoods or areas. • Cities cannot restrict or prohibit roaming sidewalk vendors but can restrict stationary sidewalk vendors from residential neighborhoods. • Prohibits cities from restricting sidewalk vending in public parks unless there is an exclusive concession agreement for the park; however, cities may impose restrictions on a concentration of vendors in parks where the activity unreasonably interferes with the scenic and natural character of the park. • Requires cities to cease criminal prosecution as an enforcement option for sidewalk vending violations but does allow the issuance of administrative citations. • Authorizes cities to adopt time, place and manner restrictions for sidewalk vending, provided those restrictions are directly related to objective health, safety or welfare concerns.
• Allows cities to require compliance with sanitary standards and regulations. • Authorizes cities to require a permit or business license for sidewalk vending activities.
• Allows cities to prohibit sidewalk vending from the vicinity of farmers ’ markets, swap meets, or temporary special events.

It is important to note that SB 946 applies only to public rights -of-way and public parks and does not apply to private property. Vending on private property is already addressed by the City’s zoning code, which allows the use upon approval of a Land Use Permit (approved administratively by staff).

The City’s Mobile Food Vending Vehicle Ordinance was adopted by City Council in 2015.

A moratorium had been adopted in March of 2014 in anticipation of modifications to the County of Riverside’s health regulations for food trucks. The City assembled a stakeholder group comprised of restaurant owners, Main Street representatives, and other downtown representatives to study the issue and review regulations from other municipalities. The recommendations of the stakeholder group informed the content of the ordinance that was eventually adopted by the City Council. The proposed modifications being considered as part of this agenda item will be the first major changes to the ordinance since its adoption.

STAFF ANALYSIS – SIDEWALK VENDING:

Sidewalk vending has grown in popularity in recent years with the protections that are now in place under State law. While SB 946 regulates sidewalk vending, municipalities may adopt their own regulations to address local issues provided such requirements are not more restrictive than allowed under State law. An initial draft ordinance was presented Item 3C - Page 2
City Council Staff Report
March 9, 2023 -- Page 3
Sidewalk Vending/Mobile Food Vending Vehicle Ordinance

to the City Council on November 28, 2022, at which time councilmembers provided direction to staff and requested additional research and public input.

The following summary provides an overview of the revised draft ordinance, which is included as Attachment A to this staff report:

• Licensing Requirements: It is proposed that sidewalk vendors will be required to obtain a City of Palm Springs business license and a California seller’s permit from the Department of Tax and Fee Administration. Those vendors that will be preparing or selling food products will need to obtain the appropriate permits from the County of Riverside Department of Environmental Health. • Zone Districts Where Permitted: Roaming sidewalk vendors may sell products in all zone districts; stationary vendors may set up on public sidewalks in all commercial and industrial zone districts. Stationary vendors would need to identify the specific location where they intend to set up as part of the business license application process.
• Location Requirements – General: Due to issues of public safety, sidewalk vendors may not set up within corner visibility areas at street intersections, nor may they locate within ten feet of fire hydrants, fire escapes, bus stops, handicapped parking spaces or access ramps, loading zones, or fire/police station driveways. Stationary vendors are also restricted from blocking entrances to buildings, blocking building windows, locating in private driveways, or locating in parking spaces.
• Location Requirements – Farmers Markets/Special Events: Consistent with State law, sidewalk vending would be prohibited within 500’ of farmers markets, swap meets, or temporary special events. Temporary special events include City - sponsored events such as VillageFest and parades, as well as private events where the organizer has secured approval from the City to close public rights -of- way.
• Location Requirements – Public Parks: The proposed ordinance would prohibit sidewalk vendors within parks that are less than two acres in size as a means to address overconcentration issues, while allowing vendors in the larger City parks.

In addition, it is proposed that sidewalk vendors be prohibited in parks where an exclusive concessionaire agreement is in place, unless they are vending merchandise that is different than that being offered by the concessionaire. • Sidewalk Clearance Requirement: It is proposed that sidewalk vendors maintain a minimum 48” clear pedestrian path on all sidewalks in order to comply with ADA requirements and provide adequate space for pedestrian circulation. • Operating Hours: It is proposed that roaming sidewalk vendors may operate in residential zones between the hours of 8:00am and 7:00pm; sidewalk vendors in commercial and industrial zones may operate between the hours of 8:00am and 12:00am.
• Shade Structures/Tables: Stationary sidewalk vendors may have one umbrella or tent structure, not to exceed 64 square feet, and may have one table or cart for Item 3C - Page 3
City Council Staff Report
March 9, 2023 -- Page 4
Sidewalk Vending/Mobile Food Vending Vehicle Ordinance

food service. Dining tables and chairs are not permitted. • Signage: The ordinance allows each stationary sidewalk vendor to have one sign of up to 16 square feet in area, or two signs of up to eight square feet in area each.

The sign(s) must be attached to the shade structure or table/cart , and cannot be freestanding so as reduce impediments in the public right-of-way. • Lighting/Amplified Sound: Vendors may have lighting, provided the lighting is downward directed and complies with the City’s outdoor lighting requirements.

Use of amplified sound by vendors is regulated by the City’s noise ordinance contained in PSMC Chapter 11.74.043(f).
• Smoke/Fire: Smoke and odors produced by cooking will be regulated by PSMC Chapter 6.08.020 (“Air Pollution”), which is intended to address public concerns. • Maintenance: Vendors must ke ep sidewalk areas clean and in a sanitary condition. Liquids such as water, beverages, grease, and oil shall not be discharged in the street, catch basins, or storm drains. Vendors shall not store merchandise in sidewalk areas.
• Sidewalk Vending Zones: It is proposed that designated sidewalk vending zones could be established, such as in public plaza or public park, where vendors would be encouraged to locate. The zones would be designated by a resolution of City Council and could include relaxed operational standards as there would not be the same safety concerns as vending in public rights-of-way.

To help illustrate the changes that have been made to the draft ordinance since the initial proposal in November 2022, the ordinance in Attachment A is provided in a strikeout/underlined version which is intended to show the changes that have been made since the initial discussion.

At the meeting of November 28, 2022, staff discussed three optional requirements related to public safety that had been recommended by the City Attorney:

• Requirement for stationary vendors to obtain an encroachment permit; • Requirement for vendors to maintain general liability insurance; and • Requirement for vendors to obtain a LiveScan report as part of the licensing process.

Based on the discussion by councilmembers, none of these requirements has been included in the current proposal.

In preparing the sidewalk vending ordinance, it has been identified that there is a potential conflict with the existing regulations pertaining to commercial and charitable solicitation contained in PSMC Chapter 5.48. In order to prevent confusion in the administration and enforcement of the ordinances, it is recommended that language be added to the definitions in Chapter 5.48 to identify that sidewalk vending is separate and distinct from commercial solicitation. The ordinance included as Attachment A includes this revised definition.

Sidewalk Vending/Mobile Food Vending Vehicle Ordinance

STAFF ANALYSIS – MOBILE FOOD VENDING VEHICLES:

Based on City Council direction from the meeting of November 28, 2022, staff has drafted changes to PSMC Chapter 6.15, “Mobile Food Vending Vehicles” (food trucks). The majority of changes are related to the existing locational restrictions which significantly limit the areas where food truck operators may conduct business. Please note that mobile food trucks do not have the same protections under State law as are afforded to sidewalk vendors.

In addition to easing locational restrictions, the proposed revisions are intended to provide some parity with the regulations for sidewalk vendors. This includes extending the hours of operation for food trucks to match those of sidewalk vendors, and allowing food trucks in parks where an exclusive concession is not in place. The following table provides a summary of the proposed changes.

The complete changes to the mobile food vending vehicles regulations are included in the draft resolution included as Attachment A to this staff report and are shown in strikeout/underlined formatting.

No modifications have been proposed to the licensing, inspection, or insurance requirements. Should the City Council wish to modify these requirements, staff will prepare the appropriate amendments for consideration at a future meeting.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:

The proposed Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) pursuant to Section 15060(c)(2) of the State Guidelines, because the text amendment will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a “project” as that term is defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines.

FISCAL IMPACT
:

The proposed requirement for sidewalk vendors to obtain a business license will generate additional revenue for the City; however, this revenue will generally offset the additional staffing costs necessary to review and issue licenses and to enforce the or dinance. The relaxation of certain locational standards for food trucks may result in additional licensing revenue, which will also be offset by increased staff review and enforcement costs.

City Attorney’s Summary
The proposed ordinance adopts licensing and operational standards for sidewalk vendors pursuant to Senate Bill 946.

In addition, amendments to the City’s Mobile Food Vending Vehicle (food truck) ordinance are proposed to provide parity with the sidewalk vending regulations and encourage food truck businesses.

A. The City of Palm Springs, California (“City”) is a municipal corporation, duly organized under the California Constitution and laws of the State of California; and

Ordinance No. _____

driveways, fire hydrants, parking areas and building storefront windows are necessary to guard the health and safety of patrons, drivers, vendors and existing business owners and promote fire suppression and law enforcement practices that allow the City’s safety personnel to observe activities within buildings and maintain access; and

I. The City Council finds and determines that the installation, repair, maintenance, and removal of encroachments in the public way must be regulated in order to protect the public health, safety, and welfare and to provide for the orderly administration and maintenance of the public access ways for the benefit of the community, while at the same time allowing reasonable accommodation and cooperative flexibility for providing necessary utility and other convenience services to the community; and

L. The inherent nature of sidewalk vending and the ability of such vendors to be located on private property and public streets and move quickly from place to place in the community, including near parks, schools, and other places frequented by children, warrants imposing certain regulatory measures to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the community; and

P. Fraud or misrepresentation in the application for the permit constitutes an objective harm to health, safety, and welfare of the City’s residents; and Item 3C - Page 9
Ordinance No. _____

Q. Vending in a manner that creates a public nuisance or constitutes a danger to the public constitutes an objective harm to the health, safety, and welfare of the City’s residents; and

T. Standards for mobile food vending vehicles relative to maintaining access to building entrances, and not blocking driveways, and building storefront windows are necessary to guard the health and safety of patrons, drivers, mobile food vendors and existing business owners and promote fire suppression and law enforcement practices that allow the City’s safety personnel to observe activities within buildings and maintain access.
