On Sept. 9 the Palm Springs Planning Commission appointed two alternate members to the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). The commission approved appointments of an architect and a landscape architect to alternate seats, with terms beginning Sept. 15, 2025, and ending June 30, 2026 (agenda contained a typographical term date that staff corrected at the hearing).
The commission praised the candidates and noted the selections will help fill an upcoming resignation. Commissioners asked staff to follow up on a third candidate who had expressed interest in service.
Action - Motion: Appoint two alternate members to the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) as recommended by the interview panel. - Outcome: Approved by roll call; unanimous.
Why it matters ARC alternates help ensure the committee has quorum and continuity for design review of private projects; filling vacancies maintains ARC capacity for upcoming reviews, including projects forwarded by the planning commission.
