Trejo told commissioners the list of eight notable projects for the coming fiscal year includes smaller tank replacement at Plant 2 (near Monroe south of the I‑10), multiple well rehabilitations, chromium‑6 treatment upgrades at facilities that exceed new state limits, reservoir interior rehabilitation at the authority’s headquarters near 40th and Jackson, interconnections for emergency transfers with neighboring systems, and a major transmission pipeline along Avenue 50 between Jefferson and Madison.

Staff and the authority emphasized rehabilitation over replacement where feasible: Trejo said drilling a new well now would cost about $5,000,000, while rehabilitating an existing well costs roughly $500,000–$700,000 and can extend the well’s useful life by a decade or longer.

On chromium‑6, Trejo said some facilities are just above a new state level and will require treatment upgrades; he described those projects as necessary to comply with state requirements. He also described three proposed wellhead treatment locations and a reservoir rehabilitation that replaces internal components to extend service life.

Trejo described a regional transmission project that will construct roughly an 18‑inch ductile iron loop on Avenue 50 between Jefferson and Madison to improve southside system pressure and reliability. He said the lowest bidder, Jones Brothers, has received a notice to proceed to acquire pipe materials and that the authority is targeting a July 1 notice to proceed with construction. Trejo estimated active construction disturbance in the alignment could run July–October, with typical pipeline traffic control (lane access maintained, flaggers, detours as needed) and staged 800‑foot construction segments; he said the street would not be fully closed but would experience summer‑season disturbance for about three months.

Commissioners asked questions about the pipeline schedule and traffic impacts; Trejo said the authority planned to wait until after local festivals to begin work and that night work would be used for tie‑ins when possible. A planning staff member reminded the commission that the commission’s role was to determine general plan consistency, and that approval of capital projects and related contracting would occur through separate processes, including city council review where required.

Commissioner action: the commission moved and seconded a motion to adopt the planning resolution finding the projects consistent with the general plan (planning resolution no. 2109). The roll call showed Commissioners Santos, Ortiz and Frantz voting yes and the motion carried.

The Indio Water Authority presentation and commissioner questions occupied the meeting’s action‑item segment; no members of the public addressed this item during the hearing.

Looking ahead, the authority indicated the Avenue 50 pipeline work is expected to begin in July subject to material availability, with the authority coordinating traffic control and neighbor interconnections during construction.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Planning Commission - 28 May 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The City of Indio Planning Commission on May 28 reviewed the Indio Water Authority’s capital improvement program and found the proposed projects consistent with the City of Indio General Plan.","taxTitle","Indio City, Riverside County, California","taxId",3813,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6651174,"Planning Commission approves first phase of Indio Grande Marketplace redevelopment; Hagan Company to build two retail buildings",947,973000,1920000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3585933-e6461785cfc09d7c84e431cf410067ff&start=973&end=1920","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3585933-e6461785cfc09d7c84e431cf410067ff/thumbnail_973000.jpg","/articles/6651174/Indio-City/Riverside-County/California/Planning-Commission-approves-first-phase-of-Indio-Grande-Marketplace-redevelopment-Hagan-Company-to-build-two-retail-buildings","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6651174-09aa4e13fb2daf2004712ffe231dba5a/orig.mp4?Expires=1771218624&Signature=NOI~IQcEfrssPD-nolsJ2pmEA0YVMOmVMQfw5pZfOHbYD9Ru60giSrk5Y-LrlwwXynZPaUTqMciRg3z-BtiwxDtHxHUW2m33NEW1X8pz1jOrk-ljKe~pG2foGnPD5urkyAXChtq-8Y7dfDD3Y39HXIUtzVEwMhMvb1EKTYEW8XyYlfuVKM1jGMePTYpCQ5avpZWRciRynPy96o17z9tgeBQZ8Phtta5NYH9iSKG~d0lR~f5HVqaOig~iTeeGYXZ395-HpE69Vacg-L0~Tb19XOZtTc~gGyTmCrrECeyMAjiVfkFVb1HzSeqgCF6d9GIDifYwXEUpxVhxUzfR7OjIUQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Indio Planning Commission on May 28 approved planning review for two single‑story commercial buildings totaling approximately 12,800 square feet at the Indio Grande Marketplace (case PRD240014), a first phase of a multi‑phase redevelopment proposed by the Hagan Company.

Nicolas (Nico) Withron, assistant planner, summarized the proposal: two ground‑level commercial pads (labeled Buildings 2A and 2B) on a roughly 1.48‑acre site at 82227 Highway 111 (APN 614020027) within Sub Area 18 of the Highway 111 Corridor Specific Plan. The site’s land use is Midtown, in the mixed‑use corridor zone. The proposal included parking, ADA‑compliant walkways, bicycle parking, drought‑tolerant landscaping, and preservation of nine mature fan palms along the Highway 111 frontage.

Staff said the buildings would be 24–29 feet tall with parapet articulation, and that the project qualifies as a “limited land use” under section 3.14 of the specific plan; Sub Area 18 allows up to three limited land‑use developments, and staff stated this is the first such approval in that subarea. Staff reported approximately 18% landscape coverage, exceeding the specific plan minimum of 10%, and recommended revisions to conditions of approval: clarifying that the city’s 50% parking shading requirement will be met as part of the broader marketplace redevelopment and removing a prior condition that had required transparent windows along Highway 111, noting the proposed pedestrian plaza meets frontage activation intent.

Tarek Shire, land‑use consultant for the applicant, and Alex Hagan, owner of the Hagan Company, told commissioners the Hagan Company will invest more than $3,500,000 in the initial phase and that the company is working to secure tenants. Hagan said the company anticipates starting construction on the initial buildings at the end of the year and targets completion in the third or fourth quarter of 2026, but both he and the applicant cautioned that timing depends on tenant agreements and permitting.

No members of the public addressed the item during the hearing. Commissioners praised the project’s potential to reactivate the corridor and moved to approve staff’s recommended resolution (no. 2113) with updated conditions. Roll call recorded Commissioners Santos, Ortiz and Frantz voting yes and the motion carried.","The Planning Commission approved planning review for two single‑story commercial buildings totaling about 12,800 square feet at the Indio Grande Marketplace (case PRD240014).

Gustavo Gomez, principal planner with the Community Development Department, described the project location as south of Doctor Carreon and west of Ambuyan (assessor parcel numbers 612170013 and 61221006021) within the Fred Young Specific Plan. He said the tentative parcel map would create Parcel 1 (approximately 2.58 acres), Parcel 2 (approximately 5.52 acres) and a remainder parcel of about 25.87 acres. The site’s general plan land‑use designation was described in staff materials as “connected neighborhood high” and the zoning as multifamily residential under the Fred Young Specific Plan.

Gomez told the commission that staff reviewed the proposal and determined it is consistent with the City of Indio General Plan, the Fred Young Specific Plan and the Unified Development Code, and that staff found the map compliant with the Subdivision Map Act. He also told the commission that, in staff’s view, the project is categorically exempt from further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines as applied by staff in this case. With the recommended conditions of approval, staff recommended that the commission adopt resolution no. 2114 conditionally approving the tentative parcel map.

No members of the public requested to speak when the public hearing opened, and the applicant did not make a presentation beyond staff’s report. Commissioners described the item as straightforward; a commissioner said they were “looking forward to the project.”

The commission moved, seconded and adopted resolution no. 2114 to conditionally approve tentative parcel map 38805. Roll call votes recorded Commissioners Santos, Ortiz and Frantz as voting yes and the motion carried.","The Planning Commission on May 28 conditionally approved tentative parcel map TPM 38805 (case TPM25008) for property in the Fred Young Specific Plan area.
