STAFF REPORT
COMMISSION MEETING OF: August 3, 1992 ITEM NO._@_
LOCATION: Camino Vida Roble -Palomar Airport Road to Palomar Oaks Way
INITIATED BY: Transportation Division
REQUESTED ACTION: Establish a NO PARKING zone on both sides of Camino Vida
Roble from Palomar Airport Road to Palomar Oaks Way,
except on the East side of Camino Vida Roble from Palomar
Airport Road to 100' south of Owens Avenue.
BACKGROUND:
DATA:
The Carlsbad Airport Centre, cons1stmg of 333 acres was subdivided into
approximately 70 lots in 1985. The CC&R's and more significantly, the specific plan
for this development, restrict on-street parking. Camino Vida Roble, north of
Palomar Airport Road serves as an industrial collector to 31 lots. As the park
develops on-street parking may create a reduction in vehicle visibility from on-coming
as well as vehicles pulling out into traffic. Staff has received complaints from tenants
within the first development that fronts on this street.
When the industrial park was originally subdivided, Conditions, Covenants and
Restrictions (CC&R's) were written. Among other items, on-street parking was
identified to be a violation. The specific plan states that "no on-street parking will
be allowed. Parking shall be provided in accordance with the requirements of
Chapter 21.44 of the zoning ordinance." The restriction clearly defines the intent to
prohibit on-street parking.
Camino Vida Roble is an industrial collector street with a 52' curb to curb width and
numerous driveways between Palomar Airport Road and Palomar Oaks Way. The
segment of roadway is approximately one-half mile in length. No sidewalks have
been constructed on either side of Camino Vida Roble. There have been a total of
four accidents reported on this segment of roadway over the past five (5) years.
As the park develops, just as what occured in the development south of Palomar
Airport Road, staff anticipates the increase in on-street parking and the need for
signage and parking restrictions. A similar situation occurred on Camino Vida Roble
between Palomar Airport Road and El Camino Real. After a significant amount of
development, on-street parking was removed at the request of tenants.
