The owner and developer of the Omni La Costa Hotel and Spa ("Omni'') is processing a grading plan for expansion, asphalt surfacing and restriping of the Planning Area 2 Parking Lot (Lot 7) on the La Costa Hotel and Spa Master Plan ("Mas·ter Plan") grounds. Concurrently, Omni engineers are processing plans to expand and install asphalt surfacing and striping on the Planning Area l "Gravel Lot" (Lot 8). (Please see attached Exhibit A.) Also, in May, 2023, the City approved an expansion to the Golf Couse Driving Range which eliminated some 283 previously-existing parking spaces to allow for the expansion of the Driving Range into the Main Gate Parking Lot (Lot 4). This interchange of eliminating and replacing parking spaces has resulted in the City's request for an updated assessment of the overall number of parking spaces available for use on the Master Plan campus, and a determination as to whether that number is sufficient to satisfy the anticipated demand. This report provides an updated assessment of compliance with the required Master Plan parking space counts. Background. The La Costa Resort and Spa Master Plan was updated in 2019, with an amendment and entitlement actions associated with approval of the Luna Ballroom in Planning Area 5 (Exhibit 2). These actions were approved per City of Carlsbad Planning Commission Resolution No. 7315 on January 16, 2019. This approved Master Plan document describes the parking requirements for the Resort to be a "shared use approval" for the campus as a whole. The findings of shared use are per a Parking Needs Assessment, prepared by Walker Consultants, August I, 2018, and which is appended to the approved Master Plan. The Walker Consultants Needs Assessment was based on real-word investigation of the facility during active and eventful periods. Notwithstanding that the Resort has been an evolving and adapting visitor-serving complex, it is the City's and the Developer's continued desire that the total quantity of vehicular parking spaces provide not be reduced below the total identified on the Parking Needs Assessment in the Walker Consultants study. Required Parking Count. The required parking for the La Costa Resort and Spa was determined as indicated in the approval documents referenced above. This approved projected overall design parking demand totals 1,263 spaces. It does not include two buildings of timeshare unit sub- grade parking which the approval documents indicate provides exactly sufficient parking (per Zoning requirements) for their respective unit counts. Since those two buildings contain exactly sufficient parking for their respective unit counts -for purposes of this analysis, they are· considered a "wash". Information listing the parking areas and updated parking space counts is shown below in Table 1. 1530 FARADAY AVENUE• SUITE JOO• CARLSBAD, CA 92008 • (760) 931-0780 • FAX (760) 931-5744 • lnfo@planningsystems.net Table 1 -Parkin2 Space Counts Parking Area Ref: Parking Area Description (on Map) 1 Clubhouse Valet . 2 Valet Lot 3 Valet Pick-up/Drop-off 4 Main Gate Lot 5 Ballroom North Lot 6 Ballroom West Lot 7 PA 2 Lot 8 PA 1 Lot 9 Building 4 North Lot 10 Garden Rooms West Lot 11 Garden Rooms South Lot 12 South San Marcos Creek Lot 13 Loading Dock 14 ADA Spaces Sig.

Based on the Walker Report Demand Analysis, the above parking counts confirm a small reduction in the number of excess spaces that existed at the time of the 2018 Master Plan Amendment, but, with Lots 7 and 8 fully constructed -the La Costa Hotel and Spa campus will continue to have a surplus of available parking, in this case of 223 spaces. This report concludes that, with the two additional lots constructed, the parking count will continue to be in substantial conformance with the Master Plan.
