The project site, an approximately 7.68- acre site, is currently developed with two medical office buildings totaling 87,000 square-feet. The medical office use buildings were previously approved with a Site Development Plan (SDP 05-18} and Special Use Permit (SUP 05-02}. The plans were later amended to increase the total size by 2,000 square-feet, increasing the northern building (Building A} to 62,000 square-feet, and reducing the southern building (Building B} to 25,000 square-feet (SDP 05-18(A)/SUP 05-17(A}/CUP 07-02/Planning Commission Resolutions No. 6304, 6305, and 6306}. For the purposes of this review, the proposed medical office use will occupy "Building A" solely, which is an approximately 62,000 square-foot, two-story vacant medical office building, previously occupied by Tri City Wellness & Fitness Center. The project proposes: • Tenant improvements to "Building A". • Interior renovation to approximately 9,200-square-foot second floor space to be repurposed into ambulatory surgical center. • Interior renovation to approximately 4,500-square-foot first floor to be converted into staff support office space for the surgical center above. • Medical office use including ambulatory surgical center (patients will not stay over 23 hours}, outpatient clinic, and administrative office space. • Reducing parking stalls by four spaces to accommodate an electrical enclosure to house a ground floor generator. In response to your application, the Planning Division has prepared this comment letter. Please note that the purpose of a preliminary review is to provide you with direction and comments on the overall concept of your project. This preliminary review does not represent an in-depth analysis of your project. It is intended to give you feedback on critical issues based upon the information provided in your submittal. This review is based upon the plans, policies, and standards in effect as of the date of this review. Please be aware that at the time of a formal application submittal, new plans, policies, and standards may be in effect and additional issues of concern may be raised through a more specific and detailed review. Planning: General 1. General Plan and zoning designations for the property are as follows: a. General Plan: Office (O} Community Development Department Planning Division I 1635 Faraday Avenue I Carlsbad, CA 92008 I 442-339-2600 PRE 2024-0003 (DEV2024-0006} -DISC SPORTS AND SPINE February 15, 2024 Pa e 3 tabulation which analyzes the cumulative parking on site with corresponding uses for each building. ii. Parking summary as shown indicates a revised parking total of 171 parking spaces for "Building A". The parking required for "Building A", which is 62,000 square feet, and proposing a medical use, is 310 parking spaces. Applicant is advised to revise plans to demonstrate sufficient parking. b. Plans as shown demonstrate two potential locations for ground floor electrical enclosures which are currently used as parking spaces. The applicant is proposing reducing the parking onsite by 4 stalls. Please be advised that any reduction in onsite parking will need to maintain compliance with Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) Chapter 21.44. Pursuant to SDP-05-18(A) parking required and parking provided is 435 spaces, any proposed reduction below the minimum required number of parking stalls will require a parking study to demonstrate parking needs. 5. Electrical Enclosures. The two potential locations for the electrical enclosures are required to be screened from public view pursuant to CMC Section 18.10.120(C}. The enclosures shall be architecturally treated to be consistent with the building design pursuant to CMC Section 18.10.120(C}. Generators or other equipment shall not generate noise in excess of the performance standards for non-transportation noise sources discussed in Table 5-3 (pg. 5-17) of the city's General Plan, Noise Element. 6. Landscaping. Any proposed landscape changes would need to be consistent with the city's Landscape Manual. The City of Carlsbad's Landscape Manual document can be found on the Planning Division's web page at the following address: https://www.carlsbadca.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/234/637425974086270000 7. Climate Action Plan (CAP). New requirements related to the city's goals to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG} emissions will likely impact development requirements of this project. A formal application submittal will need to include a completed Climate Action Plan Checklist (Form P-30) to determine what requirements will apply to the project. New GHG reduction requirements are related to energy efficiency, photovoltaic, electric vehicle charging, water heating and traffic demand management requirements, as set forth in the California Green Building Standards Code and in Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapters 18.21, 18.30 and 18.51 which is available on the city's website at the following address: http://www.qcode.us/codes/carlsbad/view.php?topic=18&frames=on To the extent that new GHG reduction requirements are in effect at the time of application for grading or building permits, the project will be required to comply with the effective requirements even if different than what is proposed in the project's planning approvals. GHG reduction requirements may impact, but are not limited to, site design and local building code requirements. If incorporating new GHG reduction requirements results in substantial modifications to the project after planning approvals are obtained, then prior to issuance of grading or building permits, the applicant may be required to submit and receive approval of a Consistency Determination or an Amendment application for the project through the Planning Division. All necessary application forms, submittal requirements, and fee information are available at the Planning counter located in the Faraday Building at 1635 Faraday Avenue or on line at www.carlsbadca.gov.
