§ 92.27.00. "G" gaming overlay zone. ¶
A. The economic growth and development of the city of Palm Springs will be fostered by the development gaming establishments within the city of Palm Springs. The "G" gaming overlay zone is intended primarily to provide for the development of such establishments while guarding against an unwanted proliferation of gaming establishments in locations which would not be compatible with the tourism goals of the general plan and the needs of the residents of the city of Palm Springs.
B. The "G" zone may be established only in conjunction (as an overlay symbol) with other zones.
C. Uses permitted shall be as provided in the underlying zone with which the "G" zone is combined; provided that, the underlying zone must be within one of the following areas, subject to consistency with the general plan: (1) the central business district, (2) an urban reserve zone, or (3) a planned development district.
D. The locations of the "G" gaming overlay zones are depicted on Exhibit "A," incorporated at the end of this section.
E. Use of the locations for gaming shall be permitted subject to compliance with state and local laws.
F. A Type II conditional use permit, subject to review of both the planning commission and the city council, must be obtained to allow gaming on a specific site within the "G" gaming overlay zone. Such permit is subject to the findings that the proposed gaming facility is compatible with its surroundings and that the tourism goals of the general plan are advanced by its approval.
