The "E-I" energy industrial zone is intended to provide areas
for alternative energy development, industrial development, and cultivation
uses. By virtue of strong prevailing winds, the E-I zone is ideally
suited for large-scale development of wind energy facilities. Additionally,
due to the E-I zone's location north of Interstate 10 and isolation
from the resort areas of the city, land in the E-I zone is ideally
suited for manufacturing, assembly, cultivation and distribution of
products and fulfillment activities, all of which are compatible with
the goal of enhancing the city's eco-nomic base. No industrial use
shall be permitted, which by the nature of its development or operation,
will adversely affect the resort environment of the city.

A.
The ESA-SP zone is intended to provide for the development of environmentally
sensitive areas of the city in a manner that will preserve the open,
rural character of these areas while allowing development of ranchettes
and clustered single- and multiple family or resort projects.
B.
The purpose of the zone is to facilitate the preservation of open
space through the creation and implementation of development review
considerations that will ensure the evaluation of the suitability
of the land for development in a manner which would preserve the character
of the land consistent with the policies in Section 92.21.1.05 of
this code.
C.
The ESA-SP zone is divided into planning areas, as indicated on the
zoning map. The ESA-SP zone includes the Chino Cone, North Palm Canyon
Drive north entry corridor, and other areas which the city council
may designate from time to time by ordinance. A specific plan, allowing
only sensitive and appropriate uses, densities, distributions, and
design standards, is required for each Planning Area. All development
will be required to be consistent with the adopted specific plan.
D.
The provisions of the ESA-SP zone shall supersede any conflicting
provisions of the Palm Springs Zoning Code. The regulations in this
Section and 92.21.1.01 through 92.21.1.07 inclusive shall apply to
those areas designated "ESA-SP" on the zoning map and shall be liberally
construed to effectuate their purposes. Specifically, the provisions
of Section 94.03.00 (Planned Development District – PD) shall
not be used to increase the density or intensity of development or
modify design standards beyond that expressly permitted under the
ESA-SP zone or an applicable specific plan.

1.
Guiding Principles. Grading:
a.
New development is designed to follow existing slopes and contours.
b.
Cut-and-fill techniques to create flat development pads is avoided.
c.
Slopes do not exceed 1-1/2 to 1.
e.
Retaining elements composed of boulders, berms or other non-manufactured
materials provide variation in form and a natural appearance.
2.
Guiding Principles. Drainage:
a.
Project drainage follows best practices, while maintaining the natural
run-off and channel characteristics.
b.
Development preserves existing drainage patterns, natural streams
and local watershed boundaries.
c.
Drainage volumes in existing channels are not increased over natural
levels.
d.
Sedimentation characteristics of existing drainage channels are maintained.
e.
Natural, non-manufactured materials are used to assure the stability
of drainage channels.
f.
The natural vegetation density and diversity of existing channels
are maintained.
g.
No ponding of water occurs above cut or fill slopes.
h.
Surface drainage interceptors are provided at the top of cut or fill
slopes to prevent erosion of slopes and graded areas.
i.
All erosion control, and surface and sub-surface drainage facilities
are designed to provide stable and long-term erosion protection.
j.
Manufactured drainage facilities are covered or screened with boulders
and other materials to produce a natural appearance.
F.
Street Design.
The design and placement of street and roads shall have as their
objective: The appearance of streets and roads as long strips of pavement
crossing natural slopes and contours shall be minimized, and their
design and construction shall minimize intrusions into local natural
conditions.
The following principles describe how the objectives for street
design would be fulfilled:
1.
Guiding Principles. Location of streets and roads.
a.
Streets do not divert or block primary historical drainage patterns.
b.

existing natural terrain.
c.
Habitat connections and view corridors are not interrupted by streets.
d.
Curvilinear alignments and gently rolling profiles are consistent
with site topography. Excavations and embankments are limited to the
greatest extent possible.
e.
Street alignments are located to avoid stands of vegetation, rock
outcroppings and other significant natural features.
2.
Street and Parking Design.
a.
Minimum public street widths are 22 feet with no on-street parking.

are used to control drainage.
e.
Maximum slope gradients within 10 feet of the roadway edge do not
exceed 4:1 for fill slopes and 3:1 for cut slopes.
f.
Maximum height of cut and fill slopes, including any retaining walls,
is eight feet. Retaining walls are the minimum height necessary to
meet this standard.
g.
Roadway slopes do not create a continuous wall or cut/fill condition,
but vary in height and present an undulating appearance consistent
with the natural slope.
h.
Slopes are rounded to blend into the existing terrain to produce
a contoured transition.
i.
Street design accommodates stormwater runoff, as required by a hydrology
study approved by the city engineer. When used, concrete closely matches
adjacent paving materials. Standard grey concrete material shall not
be allowed.
j.
Street design not meeting public street standards for sections, widths,
materials or other factors may be required to be constructed and maintained
as private streets. All streets on the Chino Cone are recommended
to be private, except collector streets, as indicated in the specific

A.
Before any land within a planning area may be subdivided pursuant
to the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Sections 66410, et seq.),
a specific plan shall be prepared and adopted for the entire planning
area to provide a comprehensive land use plan complying with the goals
and policies of the general plan and the requirements of the ESA-SP
zone. Each specific plan shall include a detailed land use evaluation
as provided in this section. An environmental impact report ("EIR")
is required for each specific plan. Each EIR shall include a full
discussion of land use alternatives and shall address planning considerations
and relationships with surrounding properties.
B.
Each specific plan shall contain a land use element, a circulation
and traffic element (including roadway and trail design and planning),
water conservation element, recreation and open space element (including
habitat mitigation), public service and infrastructure element (including
a fiscal impact analysis of the effects of development on the city),
and such other elements as the council may require. In order to ensure
that development within a planning area will not have an adverse or
negative impact on the city, a specific plan can require a development
agreement to ensure the provision of services and improvements or
the payment of fees, charges, or assessments to offset any negative
or adverse financial or fiscal effects on the city or its ability
to provide services to the future residents of the planning area and
city as a whole.
C.
Each Specific Plan shall identify those areas within the Planning
Area that are to remain as undeveloped open spaces, such as undevelopable
slopes and natural landmarks, etc., and which are to be used for game
preserve, wildlife corridor, passive recreational, or open space purposes,
may be offered, through dedication, to a governmental jurisdiction,
or to a not-for-profit land trust, conservancy, or similar organization
whose charter allows for the ownership of development rights which
will preserve the natural open space in perpetuity. In the event the
public agency, or city, or land trust, conservancy, or similar organization
does not accept such an offer (of if such an offer is not made), the
specific plan shall provide regulations for the ownership and care
of the open space in such a manner that there can be necessary protection
and maintenance thereof. Such area shall be provided with appropriate
access and shall be designated as separate parcels which may be maintained
through special fees charged to the residents of the subject development
or through an appropriate homeowner's association or maintenance district.
Where appropriate, maintenance in perpetuity shall be guaranteed through
the bond of the developer or continuing funding by the developer's
successors.
D.
A specific plan for a planning area within the ESA-SP zone may only
be approved if, the following findings are made:
1.
The development provided in the specific plan is harmonious with,
adapted to, and respectful of, the natural features with minimal disturbance
of terrain and vegetation.
2.
The development within the specific plan is properly located to protect
sensitive wildlife habitat and plant species, and avoids interference
with watercourses, arroyos, steep slopes, ridgelines, rock outcroppings
and significant natural features.
3.
The development provided in the specific plan will be constructed
with respect to buildings, accessory structures, fences, walls, driveways,
parking areas, roadways, utilities and all other features, with natural
materials, or be screened with landscaping, or be otherwise treated
so as to blend in with the natural environment.
4.
The development provided in the specific plan utilizes landscaping
materials, including berms, boulders and plant materials which, insofar
as possible, are indigenous and drought-tolerant native species.
5.
The grading of land within the specific plan will be terrain sensitive
and excessive building padding and terracing is avoided to minimize
the scarring effects of grading on the natural environment.
6.
The specific plan preserves open space areas to the maximum extent
permitted by this section and in accordance with the conservation
plan, and adequate assurances are provided for the permanent preservation
of such areas.
7.
The specific plan provides the maximum retention of vistas and natural
topographic features including mountainsides, ridgelines, hilltops,
slopes, rock outcroppings, arroyos, ravines and canyons.
8.
The development provided in the specific plan has been adequately
designed to protect adjacent property with appropriate buffers to
maximize the enjoyment of property within the specific plan and surrounding
properties.
9.
The development provided in the specific plan will not have a negative
fiscal impact on the city or its citizens.

The purpose of this transfer of density section is to maximize
the preservation of open space, significant views, and other valuable
characteristics of property within the ESA-SP zone by allowing the
re-distribution of development rights among properties and between
planning areas.
A.
Transfer Between Properties.
Within any planning area, allowed residential development density
may be transferred from any one property to another on a one-to-one
basis, subject to approval of a specific plan. Density transfers shall
be reviewed for the effect of such transfers on increasing open space,
preserving views, minimizing grading or other land disturbance and
reducing the expenditures for public services to the development.
B.
Transfer Between Planning Areas.
Between any planning areas, allowed residential development
density may be transferred with a bonus of 1.2 units at the receiving
site for every unit from the sending site, subject to approval of
a single specific plan for all planning areas subject to the transfer.
Density transfers shall be reviewed for the effect of such transfers
on increasing open space, preserving views, minimizing grading or
other land disturbance and reducing the expenditures for public services
to the development.
C.
Transfer Outside Planning Areas.
From any planning area, allowed residential density may be transferred
to any lot within the city with a bonus of 1.2 units at the receiving
site for every unit from the sending site, subject to approval of
a specific plan for the sending planning area and an appropriate entitlement
for the receiving site, including but not limited to a specific plan,
conditional use permit, or a planned development permit. Density transfers
shall be reviewed for the effect of such transfers on increasing open
space, preserving views, minimizing grading or other land disturbance
and reducing the expenditures for public services to the planning
area and to the impacts on the receiving site or vicinity.
D.
Density Transfer Performance Standards.
1.
Density transfers shall not be allowed to Planning Areas 2, 3, 6,
7, or 10.
2.
Density transfers to Planning Areas 5, 8, or 9 shall only be allowed
from Planning Areas 1 through 10 inclusive.
