April 2025 Open House Boards

There are questions for you on the boards!

Building on previous public outreach efforts and the findings of the zoning code audit (a diagnostic analysis of the current zoning regulations, available on this website), a proposal for new zoning districts and an updated zoning map was presented at Open House Number 3 (held March 31–April 1).

The proposed zoning map and districts, along with their intended purposes and key metrics, are displayed on the boards below. A set of targeted questions is also provided to help guide your input. 

Please share your comments and ideas!

Note: The materials presented on the boards are a draft and for discussion purposes only.

Suggestion
Your website makes it very difficult to read the proposed zoning map. As an architect I'm used to reading zoning maps so I managed but I don't see how you would expect most people to read it.
The map should also be available as a link and a pdf with a clear legend!
"Stuff" will hit the fan once people find out you are proposing 7 story buildings lining Palm Canyon and 5 story building directly next to single family homes limited to 1 story.

Suggestion
The spirit of Palm Springs changes immensely if taller buildings are allowed, particularly if tall buildings are allowed near the apron of the mountains. Two stories should be the maximum of height above ground within 0.75 miles from the mountain base. Three stories may be allowed in non-residential areas that are further than 0.75 miles from the mountain base. Four stories may be allowed for buildings within 0.25 miles from Interstate 10 and its feeder lanes. There might be NO RESTRICTION on building several floors below ground level. Below-ground parking structures should be encouraged.
