Also, a portion of Lot 4, fraction Section 32, township 11 S, Range 4 W, San Bernardino Meridian, and further described in the files of the Planning Department. C) Site Description: The site is vacant and unimproved except for an existing temporary Bank of America facility. The property slopes up to the east and is covered with sparse scrub vegetation. D) Project Description: The project consists of two separate actions. The first of these invloves the amending of SP-146 to allow the Kelly-Kurlander-Vandenburg Shopping Center to be constructed in five phases. Phase A would include two structures (presumably financial institutions) at El Camino Real and Marron Road. Phase B would include the site's 2 major tenants plus 2 other buildings for unspecified commercial uses. The bulk -of the shopping center's parking will be provided with Phase B. Phase C, D, and E will consist of the addition of shops at the project's northern and- southern boundaries. The proposed parcel map would divide an existing 21.91 acre parcel into two lots comprised of 10.76 and 11.80 acres. A small triangular lot at Osuna Drive and El Camino Real is being added to Lot 1.

H) En v i r o n m e n t a 1 Impact Requlrements: An Environmental Impact Report was certified "by the City Council concurrent with a zone change and specific plan approving a shopping center on the subject property. The Planning Director has determined that the subject proposal meets the require- ments of CEQA and the Carlsbad Environmental Protection Ordinance for reason of prior compliance because it Involves no changes in either the project or the circum- stances under which it is to be developed. A copy of the . certified EIR will be made available to the Planning Commission and City Council. I) Pi scuss ion: At the time Specific Plan 146 for the subject shopping center wa^ approved by the Planning Commission, the applicant indicated' an October, 1974 target date for start of construction. This schedule, of course, has not been met and the applicant now proposes to build the center in phases. One immediate constraint faced by the applicant is that the existing temporary Bank of America and Home Federal Savings and Loan facilities are approaching expiration of their Conditional Use Permits. In order to keep their Federal Charters active, these facilities will need to be moved into permanent facilities within the year. Phase A would presumably be built as soon as possible in order to meet deadlines for these two facilities. The applicant has no new timetable for the start of Phase B (the major portion of the center). Obtaining financing has been the major obstacle to the start of construction. The applicant is cautiously optimistic that money may become available within the next six months to begin construction on Phase B.
