MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION
Project Address/Location: One LEGOLAND DRIVE/North side of Palomar Airport Road
east of Armada Drive and west of Hidden Valley Road.
Project Description: An Amendment to the Site Development Plan and Coastal
Development Permit for LEGOLAND California to: (1) Increase
the maximum building height limit to 45 feet as provided for in the
Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan; (2) Site Plan for Inner Park
Expansion Area 1; and (3) Site Plan for Inner Park Expansion Area
3 on the approximately 128 acre LEGOLAND California Theme
Park located on the north side of Palomar Airport Road east of
Armada Drive and west of Hidden Valley Road.
The City of Carlsbad has conducted an environmental review of the above described project
pursuant to the Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act and
the Environmental Protection Ordinance of the City of Carlsbad. As a result of said review, the
initial study (EIA Part 2) identified potentially significant effects on the environment, but (1)
revisions in the project plans or proposals made by, or agreed to by, the applicant before the
proposed negative declaration and initial study are released for public review would avoid the
effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effect on the environment
would occur, and (2) there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record before the City
that the project “as revised” may have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, a
Mitigated Negative Declaration is hereby issued for the subject project. Justification for this
action is on file in the Planning Department.
A copy of the Mitigated Negative Declaration with supportive documents is on file in the
Planning Department, 1635 Faraday Avenue, Carlsbad, California 92008. Comments from the
public are invited. Please submit comments in writing to the Planning Department within 20
days of date of issuance. If you have any questions, please call Don Neu in the Planning
Department at (760) 602-4612.
