  • Native American Settlement to 1969
    29 Context: Native American Settlement to 1969 Francisco Patencio outside the roundhouse, c. 1940. Source: Palm Springs Historical Society. FINAL DRAFT – FOR CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP 30 CONTEXT: NATIVE AMERICAN SETTLEMENT TO 196923 The earliest inhabitants of the Coachella Valley are the Native people known ethnohistorically as the Cahuilla Indians. The Cahuilla territory includes the areas from the San Jacinto Mountains, the San Gorgonia Pass, and the desert regions reaching east to the Colorado River. The Cahuilla language is part of the Takic branch of the Uto-Aztecan language family and all the Cahuilla groups speak a mutually intelligible despite different dialects. The Cahuilla group that inhabited the Palm Springs area are known as the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. The Cahuilla name for the area that is now Palm Springs is Sec-he, “boiling water,” named for the hot springs located in what is currently the center of the Palm Springs business district. The springs have always provided clean water, bathing, and a connection to the spiritual world, and were used for ceremonial and healing purposes.24 The Cahuilla people refer to themselves as ‘ivi’lyu’atum and are ethnographically divided into two patrilineal moieties: the Wildcats and the Coyotes. Each moiety was further divided into clans which are made up of lineages. Lineages had their own territory and hunting rights within a larger clan territory. There are a number of lineages in the Palm Springs area, which each have religious and political autonomy. Prior to European contact, Cahuilla communities established summer settlements in the palm-lined mountain canyons around the Coachella valley; oral histories and archaeological evidence indicates that they settled in the Tahquitz Canyon at least 5,000 years ago.25 The Cahuilla moved each winter to thatched shelters clustered around the natural mineral hot springs on the valley floor.

  • Chapter IV. ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES
    Chapter IV. ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES City of Banning General Plan WATER RESOURCES ELEMENT PURPOSE The Water Resources Element addresses water quality, availability and conservation for the City’s current and future needs. The Element also discusses the importance of on-going coordination and cooperation between the City, Banning Heights Mutual Water Company, High Valley Water District, San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency and other agencies responsible for supplying water to the region. Topics include the ground water replenishment program, consumptive demand of City residents, and wastewater management and its increasingly important role in the protection of ground water resources. The goals, policies and programs set forth in this element direct staff and other City officials in the management of this essential resource. BACKGROUND The Water Resources Element is directly related to the Land Use Element, in considering the availability of water resources to meet the land use plan; and has a direct relationship to the Flooding and Hydrology Element, in its effort to protect and enhance groundwater recharge. Water issues are also integral components of the following elements: Police and Fire Protection, Economic Development, Emergency Preparedness, and Water, Wastewater and Utilities. The Water Resources Element addresses topics set forth in California Government Code Section 65302(d). Also, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 21083.2(g), the City is empowered to require that adequate research and documentation be conducted when the potential for significant impacts to water and other important resources exists. Watersheds The westernmost part of the planning area is located at the summit of the San Gorgonio Pass, which divides two major watersheds: the San Jacinto River Watershed to the west and the Salton Sea watershed to the east.

  • 5.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES the Information Contained Within This
    5.9 Biological Resources 5.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The information contained within this section is summarized from the Moreno Valley General Plan EIR Biological Report (Merkel & Associates, September 2004). The report is provided in Volume II Appendix E of this EIR. The existing biological resources documented in this report were determined through an extensive review of the most current, available biological literature and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) data available for the planning area. Previous biological surveys conducted by Merkel & Associates (M&A) staff, as well as biological information gathered by other consultants for projects within Moreno Valley, were further reviewed. Vegetation communities were primarily identified based on the regional GIS data incorporated into the MSHCP (KTU+A and PSBS 1995). Floral and faunal species potential presence was determined based on vegetation community presence/absence and knowledge of species requirements. The assessment of presence or potential presence of sensitive biological resources was also based on MSHCP data, which incorporated California Natural Diversity Database records for sensitive species. In addition to the MSHCP and vegetation community information, the following sources were consulted to aid in determining faunal presence/absence: USFWS 2000b, Ericksen and Belk 1999, Sauer et al. 1996, Sauer et al. 2000, Zeiner et al. 1988, Zeiner et al. 1990a and 1990b. M&A also contacted individuals with special expertise to determine the likelihood of species presence for certain groups (e.g., bats). Additionally, M&A biologists, Craig Reiser and Diana Jensen, conducted field investigations in April 2001 to ground truth portions of the regional GIS vegetation data and record locations of identified sensitive species.

  • City of Banning Comprehensive General Plan/Draft EIR Section II – Regional Environmental Setting
    TN/City of Banning Comprehensive General Plan/Draft EIR Section II – Regional Environmental Setting CITY OF BANNING COMPREHENSIVE GENERAL PLAN DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT SECTION II. REGIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Introduction This section of the EIR provides a general introduction to the environmental setting of the Banning Pass area, of which the City of Banning is at the center. Discussions are based on a regional perspective to provide a broad and comprehensive understanding of the issues associated with implementation of the proposed General Plan. Topics discussed include existing and surrounding land use patterns in Banning and the vicinity, regional climate, topography, soils and geology, and biological resources. Also addressed are air quality issues, cultural resources, traffic and circulation, visual resources, and public services and facilities. The City of Banning conducted an Initial Study in accordance with Section 15063, 15064, and 15065 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (see Appendix A). Issues identified as potentially significant in the Initial Study are analyzed in detail in Section III of this document. A Notice of Preparation (NOP) for this EIR was transmitted on January 7, 2005 and comments received are included in Appendix A of this document. The General Plan study area encompasses a total of approximately 23.2± square miles of incorporated City lands, including about 8.5± square miles of Sphere-of-Influence lands, and about 5.2± square miles outside the SOI and the City but within the General Plan study area. A. Existing Land Use Development in the City of Banning is focused primarily on the valley floor along U.S.
