LIST OF ITEMS NEEDED
TO COMPLETE THE APPLICATION
No. SDP 97-25/CDP 97-52/ZC 98-03
Planning:
1. As previously requested please provide a roof plan showing the location of roof
appurtenances and mechanical equipment. Adequate parapet heights must be
designed into the building elevations to avoid the need for future equipment screens.
A minimum parapet height of approximately 5 feet appears to be necessary based
on the average height of commonly proposed roof equipment.
2. A Local Coastal Program Amendment application is required because of the zone
change. Any zone change in the Coastal Zone requires the approval of a Local
Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA). The California Coastal Commission will be
required to approve the LCPA.
3. The revised traffic report does not adequately analyze the proposed multi-tenant
office project as compared to the planned industrial project included in the City
Traffic model. The traffic model also included the Kelly Property on the east side of
Aviara Parkway in the evaluation. Therefore, to make an adequate comparison of
the impact of the multi-tenant office project, development needs to be included for
the eastern most parcel for which no constructioniscurrently proposed. The report
also consistently refers to corporate office uses as being in the category of trip
generation equaling 8 ADT per 1,000 square feet which is not reflected in the
SANDAG Trip Generation Table. Enclosed is a copy of the traffic report containing
Planning staff comments. Please revise the report as requested and submit 3 copies
of the new document. The traffic division will need to review and approve the
revised report. If the report shows that the project does not comply with the
Growth Management Circulation Performance Standard staff will not be able to
recommend approval of the project. This is one of the most sianificant Droiect
issues at this time.
Engineering:
1. There is still a problem with the 5-foot minimum clear distance requirement
when adjacent stalls are located perpendicular to each other. Please note
comments in site plan and, if you wish, schedule an appointment with me to
review this requirement.
2. Show the distance from Palomar Airport Road to the driveway on Aviara
Parkway.
3. A preliminary review has been done of the revised transportation analysis.
Please note comments in report. After adjustment of traffic generation
figures and completion of impacts analysis, the report will be reviewed by the
Traffic Division. Some issues that will need to be resolved include:
a) Existing intersection peak hour traffic counts might have to be
updated because of the numerous changes to the traffic patterns in
this area due to the recently completed developments;
b) The future use of the balance of Parcel 3 east of Aviara Parkway
needs to be included in the study;
cl Traffic volumes at the project driveways need to be included in all
projections; and
d) Analysis needs to include an investigation of the possible need of free
right turns into project at both Aviara Parkway and Hidden Valley
Road driveways (include future access to balance of Parcel 3).
4. Note other comments in both the architectural site plan and the engineering
site development plan.
ISSUES OF CONCERN

Planning Staff previously requested that a biologist’s report be submitted which
establishes the limits of the riparian area on site. The biologist must also establish
the required 50 foot buffer area pursuant to the policies of the Mello II Segment of
the Local Coastal Program. It was requested that the biologist also consult with the
California Department of Fish and Game and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The
vegetation survey and impact assessment prepared by the project’s landscape
architect may not be acceptable to the wildlife agencies. Please provide
correspondence from both of these agencies. concerning their concurrence with the
assessment and the project as designed. The revised design has encroachments
into the 50 foot buffer area at the southeast corner of the site. This is inconsistent
with Policies 3-7 and 3-8 of the Mello II Segment of the Local Coastal Program.
The trash enclosure on Parcel 3 was not relocated to the south side of the building
as requested. Please revise the location as noted on the redlined checkprint of the
project plans.
An area of the drive aisle north of building 3 does not scale out to the required 24
foot width. The location is noted on the redlined checkprint. Please revise the plan
to meet the required zoning standard.
Numerical counts need to be provided on the landscape plan which demonstrate
that the plans comply with the requirement of providing 1 tree for every 4 parking
spaces.
The revised materials board that was submitted needs to have the letter code added
to it which corresponds to the sheets containing the building elevations.
Enclosed are redlined checkprints of the project plan containing revisions required to
be made. Please make the revisions noted and return the redlined checkprints along
with 3 sets of the revised plans.
