Access to the project will be from Faraday Avenue, and private streets will provide access within the project. {See Exhibit 1). The units would be divided among the following 3 buildings: 1. Marketing Building (l-story)-4 dwelling units 2. Assisted and Independent Living Building (3-stories over underground parking garage)-95 units 3. Memory Care Building (2-stories over underground parking garage)-52 units The project is proposed on approximately 6.4-acres located north of the signalized intersection of Faraday Avenue and El Fuerte Street on vacant land that has undergone mass grading. The project site is on the eastern portion of the City of Carlsbad. Adjoining property uses include open space to the north; open space to the east, a city facility to the southeast; a vacant, mass-graded lot to the south, and open space to the west. The project is within the Growth Management Program Local Facilities Management Plan (LFMP) Zone 16. The purpose of the LFMP is to provide a plan for supplying the public facilities needed to accommodate the exclusively industrial development within Zone 16. The project deviates from the LFMP in that it is proposing to change the land use from industrial to office. If the project impacts the adequacy of existing infrastructure, a LFMP amendment would be required of the project. LFMP ANALYSIS For the purpose of this analysis, the following City of Carlsbad documents were analyzed: • Growth Management Program LFMP Zone 16, adopted in February 1992, amended in August 2002. • City of Carlsbad General Plan Programmatic Environmental Impact Report {Envision Carlsbad PEIR) certified in June 2015 (State Clearinghouse No. 2011011004). The following applicant-provided project-specific technical analyses were also referenced, which include: • Hydrology Report (Appendix A) • Storm Water Quality Management Plan (Appendix B) • Traffic Study (Appendix C) • Sewer Report (Appendix D) • Water Study (Appendix E) PRELIMINARY TITLE REPORT l'ffl~'l'lll~~MT ~!.-..t\U~ll:IIClllt.MlllDO $Mflil!COCI.C,.ffl.ZI [~"10--101;;0 lt.l1l:~\"9Q'!Olf Mfflllllt~IN-.......,.(W) LEGAL DISCRIPTION GROSS LAND AREA CITY OF CARLBAD COIDlll l'I.Ni' MlfMIID"r. tac OWfq, ~ ,.,... ._r, ~u• '°"' tllf111Cltl'-¥l'L/IMIONIUl?lt,\l """'°' (Cl)Cll"f'Q: SCHEDULE "B" EASEMENTS L!,1111WOOTDCIWl'C..lllJICAD~MV# ll!lnn;JIIO'I011111:LlClil..DaaW'ICII. £""1TltQ-,-tl'..-.n:JJUIOa.ll.'IDCIII l'Wt,ILO(llolNCllD~T~t MJtnl.mD'l~~KI\CaD ~ Cit illlQ;,-mO I'll lll: 1U11 W. &,t~!IIICMIIIIIIUIUTUIOIIMW, Q ~ l9 JI \,t;;.,,c. ~ ... ~ CIIWG OOWld HD Kl~ 11. 14ll&llD!lffllNU:lltlllll;S/IICI ~11.l'I.IIIPOR.JIUIIRU~ .. ~==rTIIO,K(ll-.ime..oid .. ,,.,,.iri-oc:oo"'-1~1!l!CWC OM'lill'(.>.C0Jll"DS.lltllt ~ lM(U,C,-IIQfPUITT,lll,[ A ~:'1.11.""'...:=.~ nilll.lMrr :a -"'l5TIIUIDfJ IIO. --Ollff'QIC.ll[tal:IS "'"-\tl!GP'r1ll!IUDlolSllillUT01mnn::t ......

City Administrative Facilities Setting The City of Carlsbad currently owns or leases 214,469 square feet of administrative facilities in thirteen locations, according to the Envision Carlsbad PE!R. The performance standard requires the City to provide 1,500 square feet of city administrative facilities per 1,000 population, to be constructed within a five-year period. The estimated population is currently 113,725, resulting in a demand for 170,588 square feet of administrative facilities; therefore, the City currently has a surplus of about 43,881 square feet of administrative facilities. The City is meeting the standard demand of 170,588 square feet. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, an impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that 111,500 square feet per 1,000 population must be scheduled for construction within a five year period." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis At buildout of the project site in the year 2020, the project, at full capacity, will have added approximately 175 residents to the City of Carlsbad. These additional residents will generate a demand for 262.5 square feet of City administrative facilities based on the adopted performance standard. According to the Envision Carlsbad PEIR, the City is projected to have a 0.9% annual growth-rate, with a projected population of 116,823 in 2020. Including the project site population of 175, the population will be 116,998. Applying the performance standard of 1,500 square feet per 1,000 population results in a need for about 175,497 square feet of administrative facilities in 2020. Given the current 214,469 square feet of city administrative facilities, the project would not create a need for additional city administrative facilities. The project will contribute to the funding of the City administrative facilities through participation in the payment of Public Facilities Fees at the time of building permit issuance and through participation in the Citywide Mello-Roos District. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to City administrative facilities. As such, the project would not impact City administrative facilities. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 6 Library Facilities Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad currently owns or leases 99,745 square feet of library facilities in three locations, according to the Envision Carlsbad PEIR. The performance standard requires the City to provide 800 square feet of library space per 1,000 population, to be constructed within a five-year period. The estimated population is currently 113,725, resulting in a demand for 90,980 square feet of library facilities; therefore, the City currently has a surplus of about 8,765 square feet of library facilities. The City is meeting the standard demand of 90,980 square feet. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the lFMP performance standard that 11800 square feet per 1,000 population must be scheduled for construction within a five year period." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis At buildout of the project site in the year 2020, the project, at full capacity, wi/1 have added approximately 175 residents to the City of Carlsbad. These additional residents will generate a demand for 140 square feet of library facilities based on the adopted performance standard. According to the Envision Carlsbad PEIR, the City is projected to have a 0.9% annual growth-rate, with a projected population of 116,823 in 2020. Including the project site population of 175, the population will be 116,998. Applying the performance standard of 800 square feet per 1,000 population results in a need for about 93,598 square feet of library facilities in 2020. Given the current 99,745 square feet of administrative facilities, the project would not create a need for additional library facilities. The project will contribute to the funding of library facilities through participation in the payment of Public Facilities Fees at the time of building permit issuance and through participation in the Citywide Mello-Roos District. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to library facilities. As such, the project would not impact library facilities. Wastewater Treatment Capacity Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad is currently provided wastewater treatment service by three separate and independent agencies: The City of Carlsbad Sewer Service District, Leucadia County Water District (LCWD), and the Vallecitos Water District (VWD). The performance standard requires the wastewater Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 7 treatment capacity to be adequate for at least a five-year period. The LFMP analysis found that the necessary wastewater treatment capacity was available; however, there was a mitigation measure to monitor monthly flows to ensure adequate capacity in the future. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "wastewater treatment capacity is adequate for at least a five-year period." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis While the project was not analyzed as part of the original LFMP or the Envision Carlsbad PEIR, the Sewer Report contained in Appendix D found that the project would not impact wastewater treatment facilities, and the Envision Carlsbad PEIR further outlined policies 2-P.8, 2-P.55, 2-P.56, 2-P.57, 2-P.58, 9- P.3, and 9-P.5, which would make impacts to wastewater treatment facilities less than significant. The project will be subject to review by City Staff and applicable wastewater treatment facility staff before approval, and will abide by the relevant policies and mitigation in the Envision Carlsbad PEIR that are intended to reduce impacts to wastewater treatment capacity. The project will contribute to the funding of wastewater treatment facilities through participation in the payment of sewer connection fees. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to wastewater treatment facilities. As such, the project would not impact wastewater treatment facilities. Park Facilities Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad currently has 255.S acres of community parks and 68.5 acres of special use areas for a total of 324 acres of park facilities, according to the Envision Carlsbad PEIR. There are another 90 acres of community parks and 29.9 acres of special use areas planned for an additional 119.9 acres of parks, per the Envision Carlsbad PElR. The performance standard requires the City to pr~vide 3.0 acres of park facilities per 1,000 population. The estimated population is currently 113,725, resulting in a demand for 341 acres of park facilities; therefore, the City currently has a need for 17 acres of park facilities. While the City is not currently meeting the standard demand of 341 acres of park facilities, the planned 119.9 acres of parks will bring the City into conformance with its performance standard. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 8 Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "three acres of Community Park or Special Use Area per 1,000 population must be scheduled for construction within a five-year period." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis At bui/dout of the project site in the year 2020, at full capacity, will have added approximately 175 residents to the City of Carlsbad. These additional residents will generate a demand for 0.525 acre of park facilities based on the adopted performance standard. According to the Envision Carlsbad PEIR, the City is projected to have a 0.9% annual growth-rate, with a projected population of 116,823 in 2020. Including the project site population of 175, the population wi/1 be 116,998. Applying the performance standard of 3.0 acres per 1,000 population results in a need for about 351 acres of park facilitles in 2020. Given the current and planned for 443.9 acres of park facilities, the project would not create a need for additional park facilities. Additionally, there are no existing or planned park facilities within Zone 16. The project will contribute to the funding of park facilities through participation in the payment of Public Facilities Fees at the time of building permit issuance and through participation in the Citywide Mello- Roos District. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to park facilities. As such, the project would not impact park facilities. Drainage Facilities Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad has multiple reports on drainage facilities within the LFMP. The two reports cited in the LFMP are the Master Drainage and Storm Water Quality Management Plan for the City of Carlsbad, California and the Rancho Carlsbad Channel and Basin Project, Job #13182. The two reports find that the existing drainage facilities meet performance standards for major storm facilities. Furthermore, as a portion of Zone 16 is located within the 100-year flood zone of the Agua Hedionda Creek Watershed, there are six proposed detention basins within Zone 16. The performance standard requires that drainage facilities be provided as required by the City and concurrent with development, including providing planned drainage facilities. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 9 Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "drainage facilities must be provided as required by the City concurrent with development." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis A project-specific Hydrology Report (Appendix A) was developed to outline potential impacts from the project. The report outlines existing drainage and proposed drainage, and analyzes runoff from the project. The report notes that site drainage patterns in the developed condition will drain southeast to an existing underground 24-inch storm drain line along Faraday Avenue, and there will be no increase in peak flowrate on the existing storm drain infrastructure. The project proposes to develop new on-site drainage infrastructure in the form of water quality basins and a biofiltration unit to divert water from existing drainage. The analysis found that runoff from the project would not exceed the design capacity of the existing drainage facilities. As required under special conditions under the LFMP, the project-specific Storm Water Quality Management Plan (SWQMP) (Appendix B) has been prepared and will require approval by the City prior to the issuance of a grading permit. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to drainage facilities. As such, the project would not impact drainage facilities. Circulation Facilities Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad based the LFMP circulation facilities analysis on the Carlsbad Oaks North Traffic Study, last updated in 2002. The LFMP analyzes 2020 circulation conditions; however, at the time of writing (January 2018 revised February 2018), the analysis is already outdated. For example, lt indicates a projected 2020 level of service A forthe intersection of Faraday Avenue and El Fuerte Street, which is currently operating at level of service B. The analysis also includes improvements to be made at the intersection of Faraday Avenue and El Fuerte Street, to be funded by project development. The performance standard requires that no road segment or intersection in the zone, or any road segment or intersection outside the zone which is impacted by development within the zone shall be projected to exceed Service Level C during off-peak hours or Service Level D during peak hours. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 10 Threshold for Determining Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "no road segment or intersection in the zone nor any road segment or intersection outside the zone which is impacted by development within the zone shall be projected to exceed Service Level C during off-peak hours, nor Service Level D during peak hours. Impacted is when twenty percent or more of the traffic generated by the LFM Zone will use the road segment or intersection." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis A project-specific Traffic Study (Appendix C) was developed to outline potential impacts from the project. The study analyzes how the project would impact level of service and parking. Level of Service According to the Traffic Study, the only impacted intersection is Faraday Avenue and El Fuerte Street. This intersection currently operates at a level of service 8. With the project and recommended lane geometrics, the level of service would be C. The project proposes recommended lane geometrics to not only improve the level of service of the intersection, but to be in compliance with proposed improvements in the LFMP. Recommended lane geometrics include: a single southbound project access (outbound) lane, a 25-foot eastbound Faraday Avenue left-turn lane, and a northbound El Fuerte Street through-left turn lane. Existing-plus-project traffic volumes would require 175 feet of queuing space for the northbound El Fuerte Street through-left. Figure 7 of the Traffic Study provides a visual representation. While the addition of the project would reduce the level of service at this intersection to level of service C, the project would not create a significant impact under the identified performance standard. Parking All parking would be provided internally on-site with no off-site street parking. The City of Carlsbad requires two parking spaces, plus one parking space per three beds for a Senior Assisted Care facility. Accordingly, 61 parking spaces would be required by the City for this 175-bed facility. The project proposes 163 parking spaces, of which 6 would be handicapped accessible, breaking down to: • 60 surface parking spaces (3 handicapped accessible). • 67 underground garage parking spaces for the Assisted Living Building (2 handicapped accessible). • 32 underground garage spaces for the Memory Car Building (1 handicapped accessible). • 4 spaces in the Marketing building garage. • Additionally, 1 space would be dedicated to parking for the Oakmont resident shuttle Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 11 The proposed project's parking would exceed the City's code requirement by a factor of 2.66. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold periormance standard and not have impacts to circulation facilities. As such, the project would not impact circulation facilities. Fire Facilities Environmental Setting Zone 16 of the LFMP is served by Fire Station Number 5, located at 2540 Orion Way in Carlsbad. The performance standard requires the City to ensure that there are no more than 1,500 dwelling units outside of a five-minute response time. According to the LFMP, Zone 16 currently meets this standard. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "1,500 dwelling units outside of a five-minute response time." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis The project is located approximately 1.3 miles from Fire Station Number 5. According to the LFMP, a 30 mile per hour average driving rate is used to determine the five-minute response time, resulting in an approximately a two and a half-minute response time to the project site. The project will contribute to the funding of fire facilities through participation in the payment of Public Facilities Fees at the time of building permit issuance. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to fire facilities. As such, the project would not impact fire facilities. Open Space Facilities Environmental Setting According to the LFMP, the City of Carlsbad, through its own policy, requires 15% of land within the City and within each LFMP to be reserved exclusively for open space. The LFMP determined that open space facilities would not be impacted by the build-out of the plan, and as such did not review or set standards for open space facilities. The LFMP determined that the adopted performance standards for open space in Zone 16 have already been met. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 12 Threshold of Significance No thresholds were set for impacts to open space. Preliminary Project Impact Analysis While no thresholds for impact were set for open space, the project does not propose to re-designate any parcels set aside for open space. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to open space facilities. As such, the project would not impact open space facilities. School Facilities Environmental Setting Zone 16 is within the boundaries of the Carlsbad Unified School District {CUSD). Although the LFMP analyzed for industrial uses, the LFMP did identify that some impacts to school facilities are possible, as commercial and industrial uses do generate some demand for school facilities by employees who may choose to have their children attend a school near their workplace. As such, the LFMP outlines that in accordance with California Government Code Section 53080(b), all new commercial and industrial development is required to pay a school fee in the amount of $.25 per square foot of building area, offsetting potential to impact school facilities. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "school capacity to meet the projected enrollment within the Zone as determined by the appropriate school district must be provided prior to projected occupancy." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis At buildout of the project site in the year 2020, the project, at full capacity, will have added approximately 175 residents to the City of Carlsbad, and the project will also employ up to 50 people. These additional residents are anticipated to be senior citizens and are not expected to generate a demand for school facilities. There is the potential for the children of employees to impact school facilities, however minimal. According to the Envision Carlsbad PEIR, CUSD has existing capacity to add 2,546 students to elementary schools, 782 students to middle schools, and 1,794 students to high schools within CUSD. Furthermore, the Envision Carlsbad PEIR found that while increases in the City population, and therefore student population will occur, the natural aging and demographic trends in the City of Carlsbad will lead to less than significant impacts on school facilities. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 13 The project will contribute to the funding of school facilities through participation in the payment of Mitigation Fees at the time of building permit issuance. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to school facilities. As such, the project would not impact school facilities. Sewer Collection System Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad has sewer service provided by three independent sewer agencies: City of Carlsbad Sewer Service District (CSSD), Leucadia Water District (LCWD), and Vallecito Water District (VWD). There are a number of sewer collection system improvements that have been completed and that are planned for Zone 16 under the LFMP. The performance standard requires trunk line capacity to meet demand as determined by the appropriate sewer district, which must be provided concurrent with development. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "sewer collection system trunk line capacity meet demand as determined by the appropriate sewer district must be provided concurrent with development." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis A project-specific Sewer Report {Appendix D) was developed to outline potential impacts from the project. The report outlines the capacity of the sewer system without the project and measures impacts to the sewer system with the project. According to the report, the proposed project would increase sewer flows in comparison to the current industrial land use by 8,815 gallons per day (gpd); however, even with the additional sewer flow, no sewer system segment would be over 60% of capacity with the addition of the project. Analysis of each segment and a depiction of the proposed sewer lines Me found within the analysis. The project will contribute to the funding of the sewer collection system through participation in the payment of appropriate sewer connection fees. Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to the sewer collection system. As such, the project would not impact the sewer collection system. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 14 Water Distribution System Environmental Setting The City of Carlsbad is currently provided water service by three agencies: Carlsbad Municipal Water District (CMWD), Vallecitos Water District (VWD), and the Olivenhain Municipal Water District (OMWD). Zone 16 is located within the CMWD. The performance standard requires line capacity to meet the demand as determined by the appropriate water district, which must be provided concurrent with development. A minimum 10-day average storage capacity must be provided prior to any development. The LFMP analysis conforms to the performance standard as the CMWO requires development to install domestic water, including fire flow needs and reclaimed water in the future. Threshold of Significance For the purpose of this analysis, a significant impact would occur if the project would: • Not meet the LFMP performance standard that "line capacity to meet the demand as determined by the appropriate water district must be provided concurrent with development, a minimum !O- day average storage capacity must be provided prior to any development." Preliminary Project Impact Analysis A project-specific Water Study (Appendix E) was developed to outline potential impacts from the project. The study outlines the usage and infrastructure needs for domestic water, private fire protection, and recycled water supply systems for the project. The Water Study has the following overview of the water system: The domestic and fire protection system laterals for the Oakmont Senior Living project will be connected to the existing16-inch 550 Pressure Zone public water system piping in Faraday Avenue fronting the project site on its southern boundary. The domestic system will have a 4-inch connection. The fire protection system will have two 12-inch connections. According to the study, the necessary domestic water system, fire protection system, and recycled water connections are already existing and adequate. Analysis of each segment and a depiction of the proposed sewer lines are found within the study. The project will contribute to the funding of the water distribution system through participation in the payment of facilities fees to the CMWD and a capacity charge to the San Diego County Water Authority. Hannah Dougherty February 9, 2018 Page 15 Conclusion The findings indicate that the project would meet the threshold performance standard and not have impacts to the water distribution system. As such, the project would not impact the water distribution system. PROJECT FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION The project will not adversely impact public facilities and services within Zone 16 of the LFMP. The project would construct necessary improvements to the intersection at Faraday Avenue and El Fuerte Street, as identified and conditionally required by the LFMP. Furthermore, the project would result in benefits to Zone 16, as the project would pay fees for the construction of public facilities and services. The project would not impact existing infrastructure. Hannah Daugherty February 9, 2018 Appendix A: Hydrology Report
