SUBJECT: SP-146(A) (SUPP)
SANTA ANITA DEVELOPMENT CORP.
REQUEST: The applicant requests approval of the architectural style and
building elevations proposed for the Carlsbad Plaza Shopping Center as
required by Condition 26 of City Council Ordinance 9419.
BACKGROUND: Council granted approval of the Shopping Center to Azalea,
Inc. in March, 1975 (Ordinance 9419}. Subsequently Santa Anita Develop-
ment Corporation became the developer of record and made modifications to
the Center's site plan.
The modifications involved the provision for two satellite pads (14,000
sq. ft. leasable space) north of the center, adjacent to Haymar Drive,
in place of a larger structure originally situated "in-line" with the major
center facilities.
On the basis of traffic information supplied by A.M. Voorhees & Associates,
the Planning Director found that the changes proposed would not constitute
a substantial change, as outlined in Condition #14 of Ordinance 9419.
Based on the Director's finding the applicant has requested Commission
approval of the proposed architectural style and building elevations as re-
quired by condition 26 of Ordinance 9419:
"26. The architecture of the development shall be of the Hispanic
character as established in the scenic corridor along El Camino
Real. Building elevations shall be submitted to the Planning
Commission for consideration and comment prior to any develop-
ment."
RECOMMENDATION: The elevation exhibits submitted suggest that the Center
will have an appropriate Mission-style architecture. The combination of
orange Spanish tiled roofing with off-white stucco walls, dark-stained
wood beams and ceramic-tile bulkheads should compliment the architectural
treatment of the center, staff therefore recommends that the elevations be
approved.
