Since re I y , Planning Director MJH:BK:sn C: Don Neu, Team Leader David Rick, Project Engineer File Copy Data Entry Planning Aide @ 1635 Faraday Avenue Carlsbad, CA 92008-7314 (760) 602-4600 FAX (760) 602-8559 www.ci.carlsbad.ca.us 4 LIST OF ITEMS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE APPLICATION No. AV 03-01 - Mier’s Residence Planning: 1. Plot the location of structures on the adjacent properties and include dimensions showing the setbacks to the common property lines. 2. Please submit two copies of the Preliminary Title ReRort (current within the last six (6) months. 3. Please indicate the percentage of building coverage on the site plan. 4. Please include a floor plan of the garage showing the minimum interior dimensions and the square footage of the garage. Engineering: 1. Provide a letter from a registered soils engineer authorizing the narrow side yard setback of three feet. City Standards (GS-15) require a five-foot distance at 2% positive drainage between the building foundation and drainage swale. Two percent positive drainage two feet from the property line is also required. The soils engineer shall provide recommendations to mitigate any potential impacts to the foundation. ISSUES OF CONCERN Planning : 1. Although staff can recommend approval of the administrative variance as proposed, you are encouraged to explore revising the location of the garage so that it has a “zero” setback on one side and a 4’ setback on the opposite side. This would enable you to provide a garage which meets the City standards for a two-car garage with a minimum interior dimension of 20’ x 20’ clear. If you elect to explore this option, the soils engineer report (requested in Engineering item #I) should review the project as designed with a “zero” setback. If the “zero” setback option is selected, the project would require approval of a Variance (which requires Planning Commission approval) rather than an Administrative Variance. Engineering: 1. Plot the outline of the roof overhang. Drainage shall not discharge onto the neighbor‘s property. Roof drains may be necessary and should be shown on the plan.
