Existing Conditions & Project Description Existing Setting The subject site consists of a 0.068-acre (3,000 square foot) lot, located at 224 & 226 Normandy Lane. The lot is generally flat and is presently developed with a 1,156 square foot, two-story, residential duplex and a 495 square foot detached garage, constructed in the 1950s. The surrounding neighborhood is developed with a mixture of one, two, and three-story single-family and multi-family residences. No public beach access or coastal resources are identified onsite.

The existing one-story garage is located within the 4-foot side and 4-foot rear ADU setbacks. The entire garage will be converted into the first floor of the ADU and will maintain the existing 0-foot setbacks. An 86-square-foot first floor addition will be added to the north side of the structure, towards the front property line. A 444-square-foot second story will be added to the existing structure to create a 1,025-sqaure-foot ADU. The ADU will also contain an 18-square-foot balcony on the second story and an at-grade 221-square-foot concrete patio. June 18, 2025 Item #1 2 of 58 Over the years, Accessory Dwelling Unit Law (Government Code Sections 66310 – 66342) has been revised to reduce barriers, better streamline approval, and expand capacity to accommodate the development of ADUs. In doing so, the State lifted regulations that may otherwise limit ADU size, location, zones or other development standards related to ADUs. The California Legislature approved these new laws to require local agencies to conform with to address California’s housing crisis. While Accessory Dwelling Unit Law allows local jurisdictions to impose (by ordinance) certain standards on accessory dwelling units that include, but are not limited to, parking, height, setback, landscape, architectural review, and maximum size of a unit; the approval of ADUs is now largely based on default statutory standards. Local agencies may not require correction of nonconforming zoning conditions, compliance with minimum lot size standards, replacement of parking when a garage or carport is converted or replaced, or compliance with setbacks when converting existing structures to ADUs. Moreover, local agencies must allow ADUs of 800 square feet, even if local standards prohibit them. Pursuant to Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) Section 21.10.030, a detached ADU on a lot with an existing or proposed single-family, two-family dwelling, or multiple-family dwelling unit that is within one-half of one mile walking distance of a major transit stop (Carlsbad Village Station or Poinsettia Station), shall be allowed a height up to 18 feet. An additional two feet in height (20 feet maximum) is allowed to accommodate a roof pitch on the ADU that is aligned with the roof pitch of the primary dwelling. The Project site contains an existing multi-family dwelling and is located approximately 0.11 miles from Carlsbad Village Station. The existing multi-family structure on site has a flat roof. Therefore, the ADU is allowed up to a maximum height of 18 feet. To enable the construction of an ADU that is at least 800 square feet, which also complies with setbacks for the expanded area, the proposed ADU must cover the existing driveway or be built as a two-story structure. The applicant understandably desires to maximize the development potential of the property, and as such, elected to enlarge the ADU from 800 square feet total to 1,025 square feet. The Project includes a Variance request to allow the ADU up to a height of 21-feet. The Variance would allow the property to be developed with an ADU, while maintaining driveway parking in a beach impact area that has high parking demand. In doing so, the Project no longer qualifies for the streamlined ministerial approval process. A Variance is required, which means that discretionary approval for the proposed ADU is within the Planning Commission’s purview. Public Outreach & Comment Public notice of the proposed Project was mailed on Jan. 15, 2025, to property owners within 600 feet of the subject property and all occupants within 100 feet. A two-foot-tall by three-foot-wide yellow sign was also posted at the Project site on Dec. 12, 2024. notifying all pass-by traffic of the Project, which provides project name, application numbers, description, as well as both Developer and city staff contact information. A total of 102 property owners and 18 occupants were notified through the notice of project application. No comments were received as a result of the early public notice. In addition to the above, the Developer also completed the Enhanced Stakeholder Outreach Program pursuant to City Council Policy No. 84 (Development Project Public Involvement Policy). In this case, the Developer hosted a stakeholder outreach meeting on Feb. 24, 2025, for those interested in learning more about the Project and/or providing feedback. Four neighbors attended the meeting and asked questions about the proposed building floor plan and outdoor deck/patio size. The stakeholder outreach report is included as Exhibit 3. Response to Public Comment & Project Issues No comments were received. June 18, 2025 Item #1 3 of 58 Project Analysis General Plan Consistency The Project site has a General Plan Land Use designation of R-15 Residential which allows for the development of single and multi-family residences at a density of 11.5-15 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). The City of Carlsbad General Plan includes several goals and policies that guide development and land use within the city. A discussion of how the Project is consistent with the applicable General Plan policies is summarized in Exhibit 4. Municipal Code Consistency The City of Carlsbad Municipal Code, most notably Title 21 Zoning Code, includes requirements and provisions that guide development and land use within the city, consistent with the General Plan. The Project is required to comply with all applicable regulations and development standards of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) including the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.16), and the Beach Area Overlay (BAO) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.82). With the exception of the requested Variance, the Project is consistent with all applicable requirements of the Zoning Ordinance (Title 21 of the CMC). Specific compliance with these relevant requirements is described in Exhibit 4. Local Coastal Program Consistency The Project site is in the Coastal Zone and requires a Minor Coastal Development Permit. The Project complies with the Local Coastal Program (Mello II Segment), including all goals and policies of the General Plan and all zoning code standards, as referenced above. The city’s decision on the Minor Coastal Development Permit is appealable to the California Coastal Commission. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance The inclusionary housing ordinance does not apply to ADUs. Since there will not be an increase in the number of units on the subject property, and the Project involves the conversion and expansion of an existing detached garage into a detached ADU, the Project is exempt from the inclusionary housing requirements. Discretionary Actions & Findings The proposed Project requires approval of a Minor Coastal Development Permit which is discussed below. Variance (V 2024-0005) Approval of a Variance is required to allow the proposed accessory structure to exceed maximum height requirements (CMC Chapter 21.50). Staff has determined that the required findings for this application can be met (Exhibit 4). Minor Coastal Development Permit (CDP 2024-0025) Approval of a Minor Coastal Development Permit (CDP) is required to ensure that the Project complies with Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (CMC Chapter 21.201) and the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203). Staff has determined that the required findings for this application can be met (Exhibit 4). Environmental Review Prior to final action by the decision-making body on the Project, an environmental determination shall be made by the appropriate decision-makers as part of the approval action to ensure agency compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). June 18, 2025 Item #1 4 of 58 Staff has reviewed the scope of the Project and applicable studies provided by the applicant and finds that the Project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to CEQA in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15303(a) – “New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures.” Section 15303(a) exempts the construction of a second dwelling unit in a residential zone. The Project consists of the construction of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), detached from a multi-family residence in the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) zone. A draft Notice of Exemption is included as Exhibit 5. This must be reviewed and considered prior to approval of the Project. The draft Notice of Exemption demonstrates that the Project qualifies for the exemption – and that none of the exceptions to categorical exemptions listed in the CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 or Chapter 19.04 of the Municipal Code have been triggered. As part of an additional and optional public disclosure, the draft Notice of Exemption was posted on the city’s website on March 26, 2025 and an email was sent to parties signed up to receive environmental notices. Conclusion Considering the information above and in the referenced Exhibits, with the exception of the requested Variance, staff has found that the proposed Project is consistent with all applicable policies of the General Plan and Local Coastal Program, provisions of the Municipal Code and Local Facility Management Zone. Based on the factors cited in the analysis, staff has determined that the required findings approving the Variance can be made, as there are unique physical circumstances on the property, which is a constraint on the reasonable use of the property. In addition, there are no environmental issues associated with the Project. The Project would be required to comply with all applicable California Building Standards Codes and engineering standards through the standard building permit and civil improvement plan checking process. Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the resolution to approve the proposed Project described in this staff report, which includes the determination that the Project is exempt from CEQA.

WITHIN LOCAL FACILITIES MANAGEMENT ZONE 1. CASE NAME: LOPEZ RESIDENCE ADU CASE NO: V 2024-0005/CDP 2024-0025 (DEV2023-0153) WHEREAS, Cesar Lopez, “Owner,” and “Developer,” has filed a verified application with the City of Carlsbad regarding property described as LOT 36 OF GRANVILLE PARK, IN THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, ACCORDING TO MAP THEREOF NO. 1782, FILED IN THE OFFICE OF THE COUNTY RECORDER OF SAN DIEGO COUNTY, FEBRUARY 21, 1924. (“the Property”); and WHEREAS, said verified application constitutes a request for a Variance and Coastal Development Permit as shown on Exhibit(s) "A" – "I", dated June 18, 2025, on file in the Carlsbad Planning Division, V 2024-0005/CDP 2024-0025 (DEV2023-0153) – LOPEZ RESIDENCE ADU, as provided in Chapters 21.50 and 21.201.030 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Public Resources Code section 21000 et. seq.) and its implementing regulations (the State CEQA Guidelines), Article 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15000 et. seq., the city is the Lead Agency for the project, as the public agency with the principal responsibility for approving the proposed project; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did, on June 18, 2025, hold a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law to consider said request relative to the Variance and Coastal Development Permit land use application; and WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of all persons desiring to be heard, said Commission considered all factors relating to the Variance and Coastal Development Permit. PLANNING COMMISSI ON RESOLUTION NO. 7545 June 18, 2025 Item #1 6 of 58 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad, as follows: A)That the above recitations are true and correct. B)Compliance with CEQA. The proposed action to convert and expand an existing garage into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is categorically exempt from environmental review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15303(a) (Class 3 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) because the project proposes a detached ADU in a residential zone. No exceptions to the categorical exemption as set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 or Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 19.04.070(C) apply. The notice of exemption will be filed with the Recorder/County Clerk within five days after project approval by the decision-making body. C)The details of the request include conversion and expansion of an existing 495-square- foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a 1,025-square-foot, approximately 21- foot-tall, three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached ADU. The request includes adding an 86-square-foot addition on the first floor and adding a 444-square-foot second floor to create a 1,025-sqaure foot ADU. The ADU will also contain an 18-square-foot balcony on the second story and an at-grade 221-square-foot concrete patio. D)That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES V 2024-0005/CDP 2024-0025 (DEV2023-0153) – LOPEZ RESIDENCE ADU, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: Variance 1.That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical zoning classification in that that the subject lot is considered substandard at 3,000 square feet, which is 60 percent smaller than the 7,500-square-foot minimum lot size for the R-3 zone. The lot was legally created approximately 100 years ago (Feb. 21, 1924) and is one of the smaller residential lots within the subdivision and surrounding area. According to available records, the existing residential dwellings (duplex) were permitted in 1951 as a 1,156 square-foot residential duplex with an approximately 495 square-foot detached garage. ADUs may either be attached to, or located within, a proposed or existing primary dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas or similar uses, or an accessory structure or detached from a proposed or existing primary dwelling, including detached garages. Accessory Dwelling Unit Law (Government Code Sections 66310 – 66342) prohibits a permitting agency from requiring “any modification of the existing multifamily dwelling as a condition of approving the application to construct an accessory dwelling unit” if the existing multifamily dwelling has “a rear or side setback of less than four feet...” Also, local agencies may not require correction of nonconforming zoning conditions, replacement of parking when a garage or carport is converted or replaced, or compliance with setbacks when converting existing structures to ADUs. June 18, 2025 Item #1 7 of 58 Although the city is prohibited from requiring replacement parking, all Coastal Act and Local Coastal Program (LCP) provisions, other than those requiring minimum automobile parking, continue to apply. This includes provisions relating to protecting, enhancing, and maximizing public access and recreation opportunities, which widely relies on vehicles and available parking on the coast. Therefore, removal of the one existing parking space (one-car garage) without providing a replacement parking space could conflict with the public access provisions of the Coastal Act and LCP. Retaining the off-street parking space by building the ADU vertically, rather than building the ADU into the front yard setback serves the best interests of both the applicant and the broader community. The city’s zoning ordinance requires the ADU to be 20 feet from the front property line and 4 feet from the side and rear property lines. The existing 495-square-foot garage being converted into the ADU is 0 feet from the rear property line and 11.5 inches from the side (east) property line. When an existing accessory structure is converted into an ADU or into a portion of an ADU, the structure can remain in the same location and is not required to be modified to meet setbacks (Government Code Section 66314(d)(7)). Pursuant to CMC Section 21.10.030(E)(2), the maximum size of a detached ADU allowed is 1,200 square feet. To enable the property to construct an ADU at least 800 square feet (mandatory ADU) and similar in size to the detached ADUs maximum size permitted under the CMC, which also complies with setbacks for the expanded area, the ADU must be built as a two-story structure. Additionally, the configuration of the legal, substandard lot is considered shallow (50 feet) when a typical lot in the R-3 zone is approximately 125 feet in depth, furthering the deprivation of future development. Furthermore, without approval of the variance, the applicant could not achieve a similar building footprint and square footage enjoyed by other properties located within the subdivision and surrounding neighborhood. 2.That the minor variance or variance shall not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is located and is subject to any conditions necessary to assure compliance with this finding in that the surrounding neighborhood consists of substandard lot sizes and developed properties that generally do not meet the current R-3 development standards. Most of the surrounding lots have been developed in a way that does not meet at least one of the current required development standards of the R-3 zone. Deviations on other lots include front yard, rear yard, and side yard setback reductions and reduced off-street covered parking requirements. Many other properties in the neighborhood were originally built with reduced front, side, and rear yard setbacks. Variances for setback reductions have been granted to other properties in the same zone and vicinity. Therefore, the Variance is not considered a grant of special privilege. Overall, the proposed height increase from 18 feet to 21 feet is similar to other nearby properties within the neighborhood. 3.That the minor variance or variance does not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise expressly authorized by the zone regulation governing the subject property in that the granting of a Variance to increase the height from 18 feet to 21 feet does not authorize a use which is not otherwise expressly permitted by the zoning regulations. A detached accessory dwelling unit is allowed by right within the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) Zone. Therefore, a deviation from the height standards does not authorize a use or activity which is not authorized by the zone. Under State Accessory Dwelling Unit Law, an ADU that conforms to Government Code Section 66314 shall be deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is located, and shall be June 18, 2025 Item #1 8 of 58 deemed to be a residential use that is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designations for the lot. 4. That the minor variance or variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the general plan, this title and any applicable specific or master plans in that the project consists of a new detached ADU. The proposed use is expressly authorized by the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan regulations, as amended by State law, governing the subject property. The granting of a Variance for increased height to allow for the construction of a two-story ADU is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the General Plan for the R-15 Residential Land Use designation and Accessory Dwelling Unit Law. 5. In addition, in the coastal zone, that the minor variance or variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the certified local coastal program and does not reduce or in any manner adversely affect the requirements for protection of coastal resources in that the project consists of the conversion and expansion of an existing 495-square-foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a 1,025-square-foot, approximately 21-foot-tall, detached ADU in an area designated for residential development. The proposed ADU is compatible with the surrounding development of a mixture of older one- and two-story single-family and multi-family residences and newer two- and three-story single-family residences with ADUs. Given that the project site is located in a residential neighborhood where the majority of dwellings are two- and three- stories, the two story ADU will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. No agricultural uses or sensitive resources currently exist on this previously graded and developed site. The proposed ADU is not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood hazard. Given that the site does not have frontage along the coastline, no public opportunities for coastal shoreline access or water-oriented recreational activities are available from the subject site. Furthermore, the subject property is a previously developed parcel that does not include steep slopes (equal to or greater than 25% gradient), native vegetation, nor is it located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or liquefaction. Therefore, the granting of such Variance to construct an ADU will not adversely affect the Local Coastal Program. Minor Coastal Development Permit 1. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the site is designated for residential development, and the project proposes to convert and expand a 495-square-foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a 1,025-square-foot, 21-foot-tall, three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached ADU. The details of the request consist of adding an 86-square-foot addition on the first floor and adding a 444- square-foot second story to create a 1,025-sqaure foot ADU. The ADU will also contain an 18- square-foot balcony on the second story and an at-grade 221-square-foot concrete patio. The development is consistent with the LCP Mello II R-15 land use designation. The site is suitable for the proposed detached ADU since the project is located on property that is surrounded by residential uses at a relatively similar bulk, size, and scale. The building intensity, size and type of structure proposed is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. No agricultural activities, sensitive resources, geological instability, flood hazard or coastal access opportunities exist onsite. Given that the project site is located in a residential neighborhood where the majority of dwellings are two- and three-stories, the two-story accessory dwelling will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the Coastal Zone. June 18, 2025 Item #1 9 of 58 2.The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the property is not located adjacent to the coastal shore; therefore, it will not interfere with the public’s right to physical access or water-oriented recreational activities. 3.The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city's Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, BMP Design Manual and Jurisdictional Runoff Management Program (JRMP) to avoid increased urban runoff, pollutants, and soil erosion. The site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or liquefaction. General 4.The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with the Elements of the city’s General Plan, in that the General Plan Land Use designation for the property is R-15 Residential, and under Land Use Element Policy 2-P.7, one or more residential dwellings are permitted to be constructed on a legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004. The subject lot was legally created on Feb. 21, 1924. An ADU that conforms to Government Code Section 66314 shall be deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is located and shall be deemed to be a residential use that is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designations for the lot. Additionally, Government Code Section 65852.2 states that ADUs shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy or program that limits residential growth. Therefore, residential densities established by the general plan do not include ADUs, and the existing duplex and proposed ADU are consistent with the city’s General Plan. 5.The project is consistent with the City-Wide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 1 and all City public facility policies and ordinances. The project includes elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensure that all facilities and improvements regarding sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire; schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government administrative facilities; and open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new development prior to or concurrent with need. Specifically, a.The project has been conditioned to provide proof from the Carlsbad Unified School District that the project has satisfied its obligation for school facilities. b.The Public Facility Fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be collected prior to the issuance of building permit. 6.The Planning Commission expressly declares that it would not have approved this Variance and Coastal Development Permit application to use the Property for completing and implementing the project, except upon and subject to each and all of the conditions hereinafter set, each and all of which shall run with the land and be binding upon the Developer and all persons who use the Property for the use permitted hereby. For the purposes of the conditions, the term “Developer” shall also include the project proponent, owner, permittee, applicant, and any successor thereof in interest, as may be applicable. If the Developer fails to file a timely and valid appeal of this Variance and Coastal Development Permit within the applicable appeal period, June 18, 2025 Item #1 10 of 58 such inaction by the Developer shall be deemed to constitute all of the following on behalf of the Developer: a.Acceptance of the Variance and Coastal Development Permit by the Developer; and b.Agreement by the Developer to be bound by, to comply with, and to do all things required of or by the Developer pursuant to all of the terms, provisions, and conditions of this Variance and Coastal Development Permit or other approval and the provisions of the Carlsbad Municipal Code applicable to such permit. 7.The Planning Commission has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project. Conditions: General NOTE: Unless otherwise specified herein, all conditions shall be satisfied prior to the issuance of building permit. 1.Approval is granted for V 2024-0005/CDP 2024-0025 (DEV2023-0153) – LOPEZ RESIDENCE ADU as shown on Exhibits "A" – "I", dated June 18, 2025, on file in the Planning Division and incorporated herein by reference. Development shall occur substantially as shown unless otherwise noted in these conditions. 2.If any of the following conditions fail to occur, or if they are, by their terms, to be implemented and maintained over time, if any of such conditions fail to be so implemented and maintained according to their terms, the city shall have the right to revoke or modify all approvals herein granted; deny or further condition issuance of all future building permits; deny, revoke, or further condition all certificates of occupancy issued under the authority of approvals herein granted; record a notice of violation on the property title; institute and prosecute litigation to compel their compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their violation. No vested rights are gained by Developer or a successor in interest by the city’s approval of this Variance and Coastal Development Permit. 3.Staff is authorized and directed to make, or require the Developer to make, all corrections and modifications to the Variance and Coastal Development Permit, documents, as necessary to make them internally consistent and in conformity with the final action on the project. Development shall occur substantially as shown on the approved Exhibits. Any proposed development, different from this approval, shall require an amendment to this approval. 4.Developer shall comply with all applicable provisions of federal, state, and local laws and regulations in effect at the time of building permit issuance. 5.If any condition for construction of any public improvements or facilities, or the payment of any fees in-lieu thereof, imposed by this approval or imposed by law on this Project are challenged, this approval shall be suspended as provided in Government Code Section 66020. If any such condition is determined to be invalid, this approval shall be invalid unless the City Council determines that the project without the condition complies with all requirements of law. June 18, 2025 Item #1 11 of 58 6.Developer/Operator shall and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless the City of Carlsbad, its Council members, officers, employees, agents, and representatives, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, demands, claims and costs, including court costs and attorney’s fees incurred by the city arising, directly or indirectly, from (a) city’s approval and issuance of this Variance and Coastal Development Permit, (b) city’s approval or issuance of any permit or action, whether discretionary or nondiscretionary, in connection with the use contemplated herein, and (c) Developer/Operator’s installation and operation of the facility permitted hereby, including without limitation, any and all liabilities arising from the emission by the facility of electromagnetic fields or other energy waves or emissions.

C..On't V PROJECT ANALYSIS Exhibit 4 (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) NORMANDY BEACH HOME (LOT 38) PROJECT ANALYSIS The project is subject to the following regulations: A. General Plan R-15 Residential Land Use Designation B. Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.16) & Beach Area Overlay (BAO) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.82) C. Coastal Development Procedures for the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (CMC Chapter 21.201) and Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203) D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.85) E. Variance (CMC Chapter 21.50) The recommendation for approval of this project was developed by analyzing the project’s consistency with the applicable regulations and policies. The project’s compliance with each of the above regulations is discussed in detail within the sections below. A. General Plan R-15 Residential Land Use Designation The project site has a General Plan Land Use designation of R-15 Residential which allows for the development of multi-family residences at a density of 8-15 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). The project proposes to convert an existing 495-square-foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a 1,025- square-foot, approximately 21-foot-tall, three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on a site containing an existing residential duplex. Per Land Use Element Policy 2-P.7, one or more residential dwelling units are permitted to be constructed on a legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004. The subject lot was legally created on February 21, 1924. Accessory buildings and structures are generally allowed, but the allowances and placement of such buildings and structures vary significantly. Accessory Dwelling Unit Law (Government Code Sections 66310 – 66342) requires local municipalities to allow ADUs in some form (Junior ADUs, attached ADUs and/or detached ADUs) for most properties developed with a single-family or multi-family residences. This could be in the form of converting existing structures and/or new construction. Under State law, multiple ADUs are allowed within the portions of existing multi-family dwelling structures that are not used as livable space, including, but not limited to private garages. An ADU that conforms with State law shall be deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is located and shall be deemed to be a residential use that is consistent with the existing zoning designation for the site. Additionally, California Government Code Section 65852.2 states that ADUs shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy or program that limits residential growth. Therefore, residential densities established by the general plan do not include ADUs. The existing duplex and proposed ADU are consistent with the Elements of the city’s General Plan. B. Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.16), Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (CMC Section 21.10.030) & Beach Area Overlay (BAO) Zone (CMC Chapter 21.82) The project is required to comply with all applicable regulations and development standards of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) including the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) zone (CMC Chapter 21.16). CMC section 21.16.60 required ADUs to comply with the requirements of CMC section 21.10.030. Table June 18, 2025 Item #1 30 of 58 “A” below shows how the project complies with the applicable requirements of the R-3 zone. Table “B” below shows how the project complies with CMC section 21.10.030. Under Section 66321(b)(3) of Accessory Dwelling Unit Law, the city is preempted from imposing any requirement for a zoning clearance or separate zoning review that does not permit at least a 800-square- foot ADU with four-foot side and rear yard setbacks. Moreover, no setbacks are required from the side and rear property lines if the footprint of a converted accessory structure doesn’t change (Section 66314 (d)(7)). Under State law, any additions to the garage will need to meet setback requirements, and the city cannot require new constructive ADU-related improvements to exceed 4 feet from the rear and side property lines. Although the project site is located within the Beach Area Overlay (BAO) Zone, the city is precluded from imposing additional development standards beyond those outlined in Government Code Section 66314, pursuant to Government Code Section 66315. As a result, the development standards of the BAO Zone do not apply to this project. TABLE A – R-3 ZONE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS STANDARD REQUIRED/ALLOWED PROPOSED Lot Coverage 60% 38% (1,159/3,000) TABLE B – DETACHED ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS (CMC SECTION 21.10.030) STANDARD REQUIRED/ALLOWED PROPOSED Size 1,200 square feet 1,025 square feet Front Yard Setback 20 feet minimum 20 feet Side Yard Setback 0 feet for existing converted area, 4 feet minimum for addition 11.5 feet for existing converted area, 4 feet for addition Rear Yard Setback 0 feet for existing converted area, 4 feet minimum for addition 0 feet for existing converted area, 4 feet for addition Building Height 18 feet maximum, an additional 2 feet (20 feet max) to accommodate roof pitch to align with the existing dwelling 21 feet, 11 inches* Parking N/A pursuant to AB 2097** 1 uncovered space *Subject to approval of Variance V 2024-0005 **Pursuant to AB 2097 to California Assembly Bill 2097 (AB 2097), the city is prohibited from requiring parking for projects located within one-half mile of a major transit stop. The project site is located within one-half mile of Carlsbad Village Station and therefore it is not required to provide replacement parking for the detached garage converted into an ADU. June 18, 2025 Item #1 31 of 58 In general, ADU applications must be considered a ministerial action without discretionary review or a public hearing if all requirements of the local code (Section 21.10.030 of the CMC) are met, notwithstanding any other requirements of State law. In this instant, the applicant is proposing to construct a 1,025-square-foot ADU, through a conversion of an existing detached garage and an addition, over the maximum height limit (a minimum of 18 feet is normally required and 21 feet and 11 inches is proposed). Since the scope of work exceeds building height standards, the details of the request may be considered through the Variance process. The Zoning Ordinance (Title 21 of the CMC) includes a Variance provision to provide a means of altering the requirements in specific instances where the strict application of those requirements would deprive a property of privileges enjoyed by other properties with the identical zoning designation because of special features or constraints unique to the property involved. The project site is too small to fit the ADU in a different configuration without deviating from other local code requirements. Refer to Section 3 of this Exhibit for more information about the Variance request. C. Conformance with the Coastal Development Regulations for the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program (CMC Chapter 21.201) and the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203) The project site is located within the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program and is not in the appeal jurisdiction. The site is also located within and subject to the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone. The project’s compliance with each of these programs and ordinances is discussed below: 1. Mello II Segment of the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies. The project is located in the Mello II Local Coastal Program Segment. The subject site has an LCP Land Use Plan designation of R-15 Residential, which allows for a density of 8 to 15 du/acre and 11 du/acre at the Growth Management Control Point (GMCP). California Government Code Section 65852.2 states that ADUs shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy or program that limits residential growth. The project’s existing density of 31.41 du/ac is consistent with the R-15 General Plan Land Use designation as discussed in Section A above (one or more residential dwelling units are permitted to be constructed on a legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004). Therefore, the project is consistent with the Mello II Segment of the LCP. The size of the 0.068-acre (3,000 square feet) site allows for a duplex. The project consists of the conversion of an existing 495-square-foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a 1,025-square-foot, approximately 21-foot-tall, three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached ADU on a site containing an existing duplex. The proposed two-story, ADU is compatible with the surrounding development of older one- and two-story single-family and multi-family residences and newer two- and three- story single-family residences and ADUs. The two-story ADU will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the coastal zone. No agricultural uses or sensitive resources currently exist on this previously graded and fully developed site. The proposed ADU is not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood hazard. Given that the site does not have frontage along the coastline, no public opportunities for coastal shoreline access or water-oriented recreational activities are available from the subject site. 2. Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city’s Master Drainage Plan, June 18, 2025 Item #1 32 of 58 Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, BMP Design Manual and Jurisdictional Runoff Management Program (JRMP) to avoid increased urban run-off, pollutants and soil erosion. The subject property does not include steep slopes (equal to or greater than 25% gradient) nor native vegetation. In addition, the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction. D. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (CMC Chapter 21.85) Pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.85, Section 21.85.030, inclusionary housing requirements do not apply to ADUs which are not constructed to fulfill inclusionary housing requirements and are developed in accordance with CMC Section 21.10.030. Since the proposed ADU is being developed in compliance with CMC Section 21.10.030 and is not designated as an affordable housing unit, the inclusionary housing requirements are not applicable to this project. E. Variance (CMC Chapter 21.50) Pursuant to CMC Chapter 21.50, buildings exceed heights permitted by the zoning regulations requires the approval of a Variance. The Planning Commission has the authority to approve, conditionally approve or deny a Variance subject to CMC Section 21.50.040. Under Accessory Dwelling Unit Law, the city is preempted from imposing any requirement for a zoning clearance or separate zoning review or any other minimum or maximum size for an ADU, size based upon a percentage of the proposed or existing primary dwelling, or limits on lot coverage, floor area ratio, open space, front setbacks, and minimum lot size, for either attached or detached dwellings that does not permit at least an 800-square-foot ADU with four-foot side and rear yard setbacks to be constructed in compliance with all other local development standards. Section 66314 lists the maximum development standards that can be applied to ADUs by local ordinance. Additionally, Section 66321 places limits on minimum and maximum unit size requirements and height limitations. In certain cases where it can be demonstrated that the strict application of development standards (related to lot coverage, floor area ratio, open space, front setbacks, and minimum lot size) would deprive the owner of the ability to allow at least one 800-square-foot ADU within an existing multi-family property, a deviation from those standards must be applied and approved by the local agency. In this instant, the applicant elected to enlarge the ADU from 800 square feet total to 1,025 square feet and has requested a Variance to increase the maximum detached ADU height by 3 feet and 11 inches. Since the scope of work exceeds building height standards, the details of the request may be considered through the Variance process. Pursuant to CMC 21.10.030.(E)(4), a detached ADU on a lot with an existing or proposed single-family, two-family dwelling, or multiple-family dwelling unit that is within one-half of one mile walking distance of a major transit stop (Carlsbad Village Station or Poinsettia Station), shall be allowed a height up to 18 feet. An additional two feet in height (20 feet maximum) is allowed to accommodate a roof pitch on the ADU that is aligned with the roof pitch of the primary dwelling. The ADU is proposed on a lot containing an existing multi-family structure with a flat roof located within one-half mile of Carlsbad Village Station. Therefore, the ADU is permitted up to a maximum height of 18-feet. Without the Variance, the applicant would not be able to move forward with the project as it will not be feasible for the development. Pursuant to CMC 21.50.050 a Variance may only be granted if five findings can be made. Each of the findings and the supporting analysis is described below. 1. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance deprives such June 18, 2025 Item #1 33 of 58 property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical zoning classification. Given the size (3,000 square feet or .068 acres) and the shape (roughly 50 feet wide by 50 feet deep) of the project site, approval of a Variance is warranted for relief from the strict application of the zoning ordinance provisions for maximum detached ADU height. The location of the project lot and the character of surrounding developed properties in the vicinity are also unique and warrant support for the requested Variance. Size: The subject site is 3,000 square feet in size, or .068 acres, and was created as a legal lot nearly 100 years ago (Map No. 1782, filed February 21, 1924) and is one of the smaller lots in the subdivision and in all of Carlsbad. The required minimum lot area in the R-3 Zone is 7,500 square feet (CMC 21.16.070). The required minimum lot width in the R-3 Zone is 60 feet (CMC 21.16.080), which would lead to a 125-foot lot depth in order to achieve the 7,500-square-foot minimum lot area. The zoning ordinance requires the ADU to be 20 feet from the front property line and 4 feet from the side and rear property lines. Although side and required side and rear yard setbacks are set by State law, the 20-foot front yard setback standard is based on the premise of a minimum 7,500-square-foot lot, with a minimum 60- foot lot width. The existing 495-square-foot garage being converted into the ADU is 0 feet from the rear property line and 11.5 inches from the side (east) property line. When an existing accessory structure is converted into an ADU or into a portion of an ADU, the structure can remain in the same location and is not required to be modified to meet setbacks (Government Code, Section 66314(d)(7)). Section 66323(a)(4)(B)) of Accessory Dwelling Unit Law prohibits a permitting agency from requiring “any modification of the existing multifamily dwelling as a condition of approving the application to construct an accessory dwelling unit” if the existing multifamily dwelling has “a rear or side setback of less than four feet...” Also, local agencies may not require correction of nonconforming zoning conditions, replacement of parking when a garage or carport is converted or replaced, or compliance with setbacks when converting existing structures to ADUs. The applicant has stated that the property owner has attempted to plan for an ADU in other locations on the same property, though it would not be possible due to the layout of the existing duplex and detached garage and/or the loss of driveway parking. Except for the current proposal, there are no other feasible locations for constructing an ADU on the site due to a combination of existing constraints. The strict application of the provisions of Title 21 would deprive the subject property of the reasonable use of the land (or building an ADU) allowed by other property in the vicinity and the same zone. To enable the construction of an ADU that is at least 800 square feet, which also complies with setbacks for the expanded area, the ADU must cover the existing driveway or be built as a two-story structure. The Variance would allow the property to be developed with an ADU, while maintaining driveway parking in a beach impact area that has high parking demand. Without the Variance, the applicant would not be able to move forward with the Project as it will not be feasible for the development. The applicant understandably desires to maximize the development potential of the property, and as such, elected to enlarge the ADU from 800 square feet total to 1,025 square feet, such that the proposed Variance would allow more living area into the second story (exceeding the maximum height standard). June 18, 2025 Item #1 34 of 58 Building a two-story ADU which meets the requirements of the California Building Code at 18 feet in height has proven to be difficult for many developers, as the project would need to meet the minimum ceiling height requirements for habitable spaces (7-feet) while also leaving room for foundation height, floor-ceiling assembly between the ceiling of the first level and the floor of the second level, and roof and roof elements. A common plate height for residential buildings is 8' to 9'. The additional height will allow for a finished floor to finished ceiling height of 9 feet as enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity. At 3,000 square feet, the project lot is substantially smaller than the minimum required 7,500- square-foot lot size of other lots within the same R-3 Zoning district (60% smaller). The project proposes a lot coverage of 1,159 square feet, which is below the maximum lot coverage allowed in the R-3 Zone (60% is allowed (CMC 21.16.080); project lot coverage is 59.9%) and meets all other local development standards, as amended by Accessory Dwelling Unit Law Shape: In addition to being small in overall square footage, the project lot is relatively square – roughly 60 feet wide by 50 feet deep. The existing 495-square-foot garage to be converted into the ADU is approximately 6.5 feet from the existing duplex and approximately 25 feet from the front yard setback. Expanding the building towards the front property line while maintaining the 6.5-foot distance from the existing duplex and the 4-foot side yard and 20-foot front yard setback approximately provides an additional 86 square feet, bringing the structure to 581 square feet. If the project proposed to expand the structure into the front yard setback instead of building up, the one on-site parking space would be lost. Pursuant to CMC 21.410-030, when a garage is converted into an ADU, replacement parking is required for lots located west of the rail corridor and on lots located east of the rail corridor and west of Interstate 5 between Avenida Encinas to the north and Batiquitos Lagoon to the south. However, the city is prohibited from requiring parking for projects located within one-half mile of a major transit stop pursuant to AB 2097 to California Assembly Bill 2097 (AB 2097). Nonetheless all Coastal Act and Local Coastal Program (LCP) provisions other than those requiring minimum automobile parking continue to apply in these areas. This includes provisions relating to protecting, enhancing, and maximizing public access and recreation opportunities, which widely relies on vehicles and available parking on the coast. Therefore, removal of the one existing parking space (one-car garage) without providing a replacement parking space could conflict with the public access provisions of the Coastal Act and LCP. Retaining the off-street parking space by building the ADU vertically, rather than building the ADU into the front yard setback serves the best interests of both the applicant and the broader community. At 50 feet deep it is impossible to construct a mandatory one-story ADU that meets the required front and side yard setback standards. Location and Surrounding Properties: The project lot (Lot 36) is located at 224 and 226 Normandy Lane on the north side of the road. It is located in a neighborhood consisting entirely of substandard lot sizes and developed properties that generally do not meet the current R-3 Zoning development standards. The project lot was created as a legal lot nearly 100 years ago (Map No. 1782, filed February 21, 1924) and is one of the smaller lots in the subdivision and in all of Carlsbad. The existing garage structure is not located in conformance with the current zoning (setback) standards. However, it was constructed previous to the adoption of those standards (i.e. deemed non- conforming). As such, it is allowed to continue in its existing location until such time as when it is removed or destroyed. June 18, 2025 Item #1 35 of 58 All of the other 11 substandard sized properties that have frontage on Normandy Lane have been previously developed and were built such that they do not meet at least one of the current required development standards of the R-3 Zone – either through the approval of a variance or are considered legal non-conforming properties. Past deviations include front yard, rear yard, and side yard setback reductions and lack of a required two-car garage. Conclusion: The existence of other parcels in the vicinity of the subject property that may have been allowed modified or reduced development standards does not itself create a property right for other parcels in the area with the same zoning to develop with reduced and or modified standards. In general, all property owners with the same zoning only enjoy the right of development in accordance with property development standards for the particular zone district. However, there are unique physical circumstances on the property, which is a constraint on the reasonable use of the property to allow construction of the ADU. The proposed location of the ADU was chosen as most practical. This particular parcel is burdened by its limited size (undersized according to zoning standards) and by having existing structures and other constructive improvements in place, including a residential duplex and detached garage. Strict application of the R-3 Zone development standards to the project site would deprive the project site of development privileges enjoyed by all other property in the vicinity and under the identical R-3 Zoning classification. The circumstances contributing to the need for the Variance are that the parcel is undersized and the applicant desires to construct an ADU in the same or similar location as the existing garage. Allowing the construction of a detached ADU over the maximum height limit, rather than over the driveway area helps maintain driveway parking in a beach impact area that has high parking demand. 2. That the variance shall not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is located and is subject to any conditions necessary to assure compliance with this finding. The project site (Lot 36) is located in a neighborhood consisting entirely of substandard lot sizes and developed properties that generally do not meet the current R-3 development standards. The project lot was created as a legal lot nearly 100 years ago (Map No. 1782, filed February 21, 1924). and is one of the smaller lots in the subdivision and in all of Carlsbad. The requested approval of a Variance for relief from the strict application of the zoning ordinance provisions for building is consistent with the development footprint realized by surrounding properties in the vicinity and in the same R-3 Zone. All of the other 11 substandard sized properties that have frontage on Normandy Lane have been previously developed and were built such that they do not meet at least one of the current required development standards of the R-3 Zone – either through the approval of a variance or are considered legal non-conforming properties. Past deviations include front yard, rear yard, and side yard setback reductions and lack of a required two-car garage. Conclusion: In California, local agencies must allow ADUs with a minimum rear yard and side setback of four feet. Also, local agencies may not require correction of nonconforming zoning conditions, replacement of parking when a garage or carport is converted or replaced and coastal access is not impacted, or compliance with setbacks when converting existing structures to ADUs. June 18, 2025 Item #1 36 of 58 The granting of a Variance does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other surrounding properties in the vicinity and in the same R-3 Zone in which the subject property is located. 3. That the variance does not authorize a use or activity which is not otherwise expressly authorized by the zone regulation governing the subject property. The project consists of the conversion of an existing 495-square-foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a two-story 1,025-square-foot, approximately 21-foot-tall, three-bedroom, two- bathroom detached ADU. The proposed use is expressly authorized by the Carlsbad Zoning regulations governing the subject property. The granting of a Variance for additional height above the maximum building height permitted for ADUs does not allow for or authorize a use not otherwise expressly permitted. Conclusion: The granting of the Variance does not authorize any use or activity not otherwise expressly authorized by the Carlsbad Zoning regulations governing the subject property. 4. That the variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the General Plan and any applicable specific or master plans. The project consists of the conversion of an existing 495-square-foot, one-story, 10-foot-tall, one-car garage into a two-story 1,025-square-foot, approximately 21-foot-tall, three-bedroom, two- bathroom detached ADU. The General Plan land use designation for the project site is R-15. Residential densities established by the general plan do not include ADUs. The project lot was created as a legal lot nearly 100 years ago (Map No. 1782, filed February 21, 1924), and the existing duplex and proposed ADU are consistent with the General Plan (one or more residential dwelling units are permitted to be constructed on a legal lot that existed as of October 28, 2004). There are no Specific or Master Plans that apply to the project site. Moreover, as referenced earlier in this Exhibit, an ADU that conforms with State law shall be deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is located and shall be deemed to be a residential use that is consistent with the existing zoning designation for the site. Conclusion: The granting of a Variance is entirely consistent with the general purpose and intent of the General Plan. 5. The variance is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the certified local coastal program and does not reduce or in any manner adversely affect the requirements for protection of coastal resources. The project site is located within the coastal zone and the Mello II Segment of the certified Local Coastal Program. The project site is completely devoid of coastal resources. It is completely developed, relatively flat, contains no habitat, is not designated for or has never been used for agriculture, no public access exists across the property, and no public views exist or are impacted by the proposed project. The proposed project meets all parking, setbacks, and lot coverage requirements. The proposed project, including the Variance request, poses no conflict with any Mello II LCP LUP policy. June 18, 2025 Item #1 37 of 58 Conclusion: The granting of a Variance is consistent with and implements the Mello II Segment LCP LUP requirements and does not in any manner adversely affect the protection of any coastal resources. The granting of a variance is consistent with and implements the requirements of the Local Coastal Program. The variance will not have an adverse effect on coastal resources as discussed above in Section “C” and will have no impacts on sensitive environmental resources. Therefore, the granting of such Variance is consistent with the Local Coastal Program.

Name of Public Agency Approving Project: City of Carlsbad Name of Person or Agency Carrying Out Project: Cesar Lopez Name of Applicant: Cesar Lopez Applicant’s Address: 224 Normandy Lane, Carlsbad, CA 92008 Applicant’s Telephone Number: (916) 316-9671 Name of Applicant/Identity of person undertaking the project (if different from the applicant above): Exempt Status: Section 15303(a) – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures Reasons why project is exempt: Categorical Exemption: Section 15303(a) – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures exempts the construction of a second dwelling unit in a residential zone. The project consists of the construction of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), detached from a multi-family residence in the Multiple-Family Residential (R-3) zone. Exceptions to Exemptions Exhibit 5 June 18, 2025 Item #1 39 of 58 CEQA Section 15300.2 – Exceptions Planning staff evaluated all the potential exceptions to the use of Categorical Exemptions for the proposed project (in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2) and determined that none of these exceptions apply as explained below: a. Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located - a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply in all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies. This project is eligible for the Class 3 exemption. Response – The project location is not considered to be a particularly sensitive environment due to the following reasons: The site is not located within an Existing or Proposed Hardline Conservation Area or Standards Area of the Habitat Management Plan and the project site is currently developed. Therefore, the project will not have an impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern. b. Cumulative Impact - “All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant.” Response – There is no evidence of successive similar projects in the area that would result in cumulative environmental impacts. The project consists of a new accessory dwelling unit detached from an existing multi-family residence and will not contribute to cumulative impacts related to air quality, noise, transportation, or other environmental concerns. Therefore, this exception does not apply. c. Significant Effect - “A categorical exemption shall not be used for any activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. Examples include projects, which may affect scenic or historical resources.” Response - There are no unusual circumstances that would have a significant impact on the environment due to the project. The Project does not involve any unusual circumstances. In regard to biological resources, the project is not located within an existing or proposed Hardline Conservation Areas or Standards Areas of the Habitat Management Plan. d. Scenic Highway - “A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to improvements which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration or certified EIR.” Response – Normandy Lane is not considered a historical and scenic corridor throughout Carlsbad, is not a highway officially designated as a State Scenic Highway, nor is it easily visible from a Carlsbad historical or scenic corridor or State Scenic Highway. The project site is also surrounded on all sides by existing residential structures. Therefore, implementation of the Project will result in similar visual conditions compared with a no project scenario. June 18, 2025 Item #1 40 of 58 e. Hazardous Waste Site - “A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.” Response – A review of available records did not identify any sites which are included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.4 of the Government Code. f. Historical Resources - “A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.” Response – There is no evidence that the project site contains or is associated with any historical resources. Therefore, this exception does not apply. Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 19.04.070(B) - Exceptions Exceptions. Even though a project may otherwise be eligible for an exemption, no exemption shall apply in the following circumstances: 1. Grading and clearing activities affecting sensitive plant or animal habitats, which disturb, fragment or remove such areas as defined by either the California Endangered Species Act (Fish and Game Code Sections 2050 et seq.), or the Federal Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. Section 15131 et seq.); sensitive, rare, candidate species of special concern; endangered or threatened biological species or their habitat (specifically including sage scrub habitat for the California Gnatcatcher); or archaeological or cultural resources from either historic or prehistoric periods; Or 2. Parcel maps, plot plans and all discretionary development projects otherwise exempt but which affect sensitive, threatened, or endangered biological species or their habitat (as defined above), archaeological or cultural resources from either historic or prehistoric periods, wetlands, stream courses designated on U.S. Geological Survey maps, hazardous materials, unstable soils, or other factors requiring special review, on all or a portion of the site. (Ord. NS-593, 2001) Response – The Project site is located in a developed part of the city and is surrounded by residential uses. The Project site contains an existing multi-family residence with a detached garage and the site contains only non-natives and ornamental vegetation with no value as habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species. Furthermore, the site is not within mapped areas of potential critical habitat as depicted in the City’s General Plan1. Additionally, hazardous materials, unstable soils or other factors requiring special review do not apply or are not found within this project location.

PART F. Applicant Declarations (to be signed by Applicant) I hereby certify that I have read the information below and that: 1. I have carefully reviewed and prepared the application and plans in accordance with the instructions. 2. I understand that the specific information needed to initiate planning case processing corresponds to those items listed in the application form1s "Minimum Submittal Intake Requirements Checklist.'1 I also understand that even if the application is duly filed and accepted for intake processing, each application submitted to the Planning Division is required to have specified information included in the application packet before it is determined to be complete. The specific information to determine completeness is in "Completeness Determination Requirements Checklist." 3. The Planning Division has developed policies to help ensure that discretionary permit applications are timely processed. The Permit Streamlining Act shot clock starts on the intake date the Planning staff accepts a duly filed application. 4. I understand that once an application is determined to be complete, project or design changes that will increase the number of units, add uses that were not previously listed, substantially change the site plan, or other changes that trigger the need for additional discretionary approvals will require a new application, or the filing of other application permit types, which would restart the review "clock" and extend processing time lines. 5. I understand that upon city review, additional information, documents, reports, entitlements and fees might be required, including any referral fees. I understand that all fees and deposits submitted with this application will be refunded only as provided for by the ordinances, regulations, or policies in effect at the time of the application submittal. 6. I certify that the description of the development and all the plans and supporting documentation are accurate in all material respects as of the date when made. I understand that it is my responsibility to ensure that statements and representations are not misleading. Furthermore, I agree to promptly remove, correct, or add information as needed to correct any misleading or materially inaccurate information. I understand that any misstatement or omission of the requested information or of any information subsequently requested might be Page 4 of 6 P-1(A) Form Rev 4/2024 June 18, 2025 Item #1 46 of 58 grounds for rejecting the application, deeming the application incomplete, denying the application, suspending or revoking a permit issued on the basis of these or subsequent representations, or for the seeking of such other and further relief as deemed appropriate by the City of Carlsbad. 7. If discrepancies exist between the architectural plans and the structural plans, the architectural plans shall take precedence. Ultimately, the scope of work, as described on the permit that authorizes construction, takes precedence over the plans. If there is a discrepancy between the plans and the description on the permit, the permit governs. 8. I understand that all materials submitted in connection with this application might become public record subject to inspection and copying by the public. I acknowledge and understand that the public might inspect and copy these materials and that some or all of the materials might be posted on the city website or elsewhere on line, outside of the city's control. 9. I understand there are no assurances at any time, implicitly or otherwise, whether provided to me in writing or by oral communications regarding final staff recommendations to the decision- making body about this application or the determination of any decision-making body. 10. I understand that the overall design process consists of several steps, each with increasingly more detail. The planning phase is one of the first steps in the design process. A Land Use Review Application (or "planning application") consists only of a schematic design package. If the project is approved or conditionally approved, the schematic design phase is immediately followed by a design development phase (with construction drawings). Construction drawings, such grading and drainage plans, are much more comprehensive and provide additional detail, specificity, and instructions on how to build and implement the project. Review comments, statements, or approvals from the City of Carlsbad concerning a Land Use Review Application are based on the representations of the intent of design and construction. City comments and statements are believed to be accurate; however, such accuracy is not guaranteed when implementing the intended design solution. I understand that the approval or conditional approval of a Land Use Review Application does not replace the more thorough review of the construction drawings by the city or another agency during the design development phase; or services or recommendations provided by design professionals, such as architects, engineers, code professionals, etc. Furthermore, the approval or conditional approval of a Land Use Review Application does not relieve the Applicant of the obligation from complying with all applicable regulations, standards, policies, and guidelines applicable to the design development phase. Therefore, the ultimate design solutions required in construction drawings may differ from the project's initial schematic design. The approved plan set of project drawings, civil plans/grading, sections, site plans, floor plans, architectural elevations, and landscape plans shall not be altered without express authorization by the City Planner. Once a permit has been issued, the Applicant may request permit modifications. "Minor" modifications might be granted if found by the City Planner to be in substantial conformity with the approved plan set, including all exhibits and permit conditions. Page 5 of 6 P-1(A) Form Rev4/2024 June 18, 2025 Item #1 47 of 58 Modifications beyond the scope described in the approved plan set might require submittal of an amendment to the permit and approval by the authorized review body. 11. Should any proponent of the project fail to file a timely and valid appeal of the permit within the applicable appeal period, such inaction shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of the permit by the Applicant; and agreement by the Applicant to be bound by, to comply with, and to do all things required of or by the Applicant pursuant to all of the terms, provisions, and conditions of the issued permit or other approval. 12. As part of this application, the Applicant hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City of Carlsbad, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, volunteers, and agents from any claim, action, or proceeding against the City of Carlsbad, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, volunteers and agents, to attack, set aside, void or annul an approval of the application or related decision, including environmental documents, or to challenge a denial of the application or related decisions. This indemnification shall include, but not be limited to, damages awarded against the city, if any, costs of suit, attorneys' fees, and other expenses incurred in connection with such claim, action, causes of action, suit or proceeding whether incurred by Applicant, city, and/or the parties initiating or bringing such proceeding. The Applicant shall indemnify the city for all of the city's costs, attorneys' fees, and damages that the city incurs in enforcing the indemnification provisions set forth herein. The Applicant shall pay to the city upon demand any amount owed to the city pursuant to the indemnification requirements prescribed. By signing below, I acknowledge that I have completely read, understand, and agree to the declarations above and accept all terms set forth herein.
