STAFF REPORT
RP/CUP 88-7 JOBE GAY -Request for a Minor Redevelopment Permit and
a Condit i ona 1 Use Permit to a 11 ow the continued operation of an
existing auto impound yard at 3267 Tyler Street, in Subarea 4 of the
Village Redevelopment Area and located in Local Facilities Management
Zone 1.
RECCM1ENDATION
That the Design Review Board ADOPT Design Review Board Resolution No. 141
APPROVING RP/CUP 88-7, based on the findings and subject to the conditions
contained therein.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The applicant is requesting a Redevelopment Permit and a Conditional Use Permit
to allow the continued operation of an existing auto impound yard, located as
described above.
On July 27, 1979 the Planning Commission approved CUP-163 to allow this existing
auto impound yard facility. Condition No. 2 of CUP-163 specified that CUP-163
would expire 5 years after the date of issuance unless an extension request was
applied for and approved by the Planning Commission. The project applicants have
never requested an extension for CUP-163. In accordance, CUP-163 technically
expired on July 27, 1987.
The existing auto storage yard is currently being used as an impound yard for
the Carlsbad Police Department and the California Highway Patrol. The yard is
used exclusively for storing impounded cars and no stacking or dismantling of
autos is permitted. As shown on Exhibit "A", the .45 acre site includes an
existing office building (1,065 square feet in area), two storage sheds, a
concrete driveway, and a gravel covered storage lot. The site is screened from
Tyler Street and the alley to the north by an existing chain link fence with
white aluminum slats and landscaping.
The site is surrounded by light manufacturing/industrial uses including Southern
California Precision Milling to the north, K & K Vitamins to the south, Gilbert's
Auto Body to the east and undeveloped property to the west.

II I. ANAL VS IS
Planning Issues
1. Does this existing use conform with the goals of Subarea 4 and the
development standards of the Village Design Manual and the V-R Zone
(underlying M Zone)?
2. Can the four findings required for the granting of a Conditional Use Permit
be made?
a) That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development
of the community, is essentially in harmony with the various elements
and objectives of the General Plan, and is not detrimental to
existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone in which
the proposed use is to be located;
b) That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate the use;
c) That all the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping and other
features necessary to adjust the requested use to existing or
permitted future uses in the neighborhood wi 11 be provided and
maintained;
d) That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to
properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use.
3. Is this existing use consistent with the Zone 1 Local Facilities Management
Pl an?
DISCUSSION
The existing auto impound yard at this location is in specific conformance with
the major goals of Subarea 4 as discussed below. The primary redevelopment goal
of Subarea 4 is to "create a light manufacturing/heavy commercial area" in order
to respond to major repair, service, and distribution needs within the City.
In accordance, uses such as; auto related services, contractor's yards and
storage areas are encouraged within this Subarea. It is also important to note
that the area along the west side of Tyler Street (including this site) has
historically functioned, and exists today, as the only true light
manufacturing/heavy commercial area of the Ci~y.
As noted earlier the existing impound yard was approved in 1979. At the time
of the approva 1, the project was found to be in compliance with a 11 of the
development standards of the underlying M (Industrial) Zone. The project remains
in compliance with all of the M (industrial) Zone standards. In that the project
applicant is proposing no changes to the existing use, staff believes that the
project is in conformance with the development standards of the Village Design
Manual.

However, in order to enhance the overall appearance of this existing use, staff
has conditioned (See Condition No. 8) that additional landscaping be provided
along the sites northern and eastern perimeters subject to the approval of the
Planning Director.
The existing auto impound yard also meets the four findings necessary for the
issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. As discussed above, this area along the
west side of Tyler Street is really the only area within the City where an auto
impound yard would be permitted. The necessity and desirability of this auto
impound yard is reflected by the ongoing storage of impounded vehicles at this
yard {since 1979) by the City of Carlsbad Police Department and the State Highway
Patrol. This use is also specifically permitted along the west side of Tyler
Street within Subarea 4 of the Village Redevelopment Area. The Village Design
Manual is an implementing ordinance of the Genera 1 Pl an. Therefore, it is
concluded that this use is in harmony with the objectives of the General Plan.
This use is also considered compatible (not detrimental) with other surrounding
uses in that the surrounding properties are developed with similar 1 ight
manufacturing/heavy commercial uses. This conclusion is also based upon the fact
that there have been no public complaints filed with the City concerning this
use over its 10 years of operation.
Based upon the existing auto impound yard's continuous and successful operation
over the past 10 years, the project site for this existing use appears adequate
in size and shape to accommodate this use. As shown on Exhibit "A" all of the
setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping and other features nece~sary to adjust this
use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood have been provided
and maintained. To reiterate, staff has also added a condition to increase
perimeter landscaping, thereby providing the project with an enhanced visual
appearance from along Tyler Street.
The existing auto impound yard generates relatively low volumes of automobile
traffic. In accordance, the existing street system (Tyler Street) serving this
auto impound yard has been, and will continue to oe adequate to properly handle
all traffic generated by this use.
The existing auto impound yard is consistent with the Zone 1 Local Facilities
Management Plan. As discussed within the Zone 1 Plan, all public facilities and
services are in conformance with the adopted performance standards.
In summary, because the existing auto impound yard: (1) conforms to the subarea
goals and development standards of the Village Design Manual and the V-R Zone
(underlying M Zone), {2) meets the four findings necessary for granting a
Conditional Use Permit, and (3) is consistent with the Zone 1 Local Facilities
Management Plan, staff recommends approval of'RP/CUP 88-7.
