Yucca Valley – Hilton was given permission to paint geometric murals in his newly acquired hotel last week in a voice planning commission in the city.
The hotel on the 56525 Twentynine Palms Highway used to be a Best West Western. The company wanted the permission to paint three murals made of geometric designs in violet, slate and lime shadows.
In fact, the company began to paint before it was permitted in the city and was stopped by a code enforcement officer.
The design, part of the Spark Branding, did not use colors in the city palette of the city that was approved for companies. The urban planning commissioner Mathew Thomas described the proposed colors at a meeting of January 28 Horrendous.
This discussion ended with the fact that the commissioner, the company's representative, Arturo Delgado Lopez, to determine whether Hilton's corporate office would allow a similar design, but with urban colors.
At her meeting on February 11th, Thomas reflected that it could be time to stretch the limits of the city's rules for business colors.
“The last time I said I thought that the colors were actually terrible and I still think that some of them don't look really good … Nevertheless, I think the city itself is growing. We bring in a lot more companies, ”said Thomas.
“Many other companies come in. They have their company colors, and I might even suggest that it is time for us to think about updating our palette.”
Thomas said he didn't want the city to reject developmental proposals from large companies because its building colors are exhausted “by a shadow”.
“The old Yucca valley was everything brown and brown and they wanted a desert view. Well, the times change and maybe we have to change, ”he said.
There is something to say for a company that takes care of his building, said Commissioner Clint Stoker.
“There are some companies that we could see that have not painted their buildings for 50 years, and here is someone who wants to do something, albeit a little different from what we are used to,” he said .
“It is at least an improvement to 'tired'. At least it's fresh. “
Lopez was given the permission of Hilton to approved colors approved in the murals, and the commissioners approved the designs.
“It is definitely more attractive than a gray and white box,” said Stoker.
Nevertheless, he and deputy chairman Alejandro Vasconcelos asked whether the murals could be confronted with Twentynine Palms Highway.
Hilton proposed to paint three of them – a facing motorway driver near the entrance to the main building and two more on the western sides of the main building and the second building.
“If the front of the building does not have this color directly on the highway, it would be better,” said Stoker.
“It's not like that on your face when you drive past,” Vasconcelos agreed.
However, Thomas asked why they would restrict the place because the paintings now correspond to the rules of the city. “What is the reason for this? Is it just that we don't like it? “
His co -represented suffered the three murals on three sides of the Hilton.

The decorations of the metal tower in the shopping center, which extends west of von von von, are removed. The commissioners approved a plan for the section of the building, which used to housing Aaron's rent.
The applicant suggests removing the decorative tower structures and increasing the parapet with the rest of the building.
“I like the upgrade,” said Thomas.
The presentation of the project by the artist by the real estate owners GTS Realty showed a sign for Bath & Body Works that took the room right next to us. Henderson asked whether Bath and Body Works would rent the room.
“We heard rumors that they are interested, and it is about the rendering, but (we had) no direct communication from this tenant,” replied the deputy planner Evan Willoughby.
