Description/Explanation. See attached. t. RECEIVED OCT 1 6 2002 CITY OF CARLSBAD PLANNING DEPT. ProjO..c.trm . f --------------------------------------- a . n . . e I>roJect escrtptton KSL LaCosta Resort Corporation ("KSL") is applying to amend the existing CUP for the La Costa Spa and Resort and for a special use permit ("SUP") to allow the addition of an approximately 42,447 square foot ballroom facility with associated improvements. This building would be located in the area to the north of the existing spa as generally depicted on the Site Plan submitted with this application. The ballroom facility will be used primarily as meeting space for on-site group guests and will also be used for evening functions such as parties, weddings or other events. This new ballroom facility is an important improvement that is necessary for the re-positioning of the resort. Compared to its peers in the high-end group hotel industry, La Costa has insufficient meeting space for the room count of the resort. This facility will help to better align the correct ratio of meeting space per guest room for the resort. The facility would be comprised of approximately 18,000 square feet of ballroom space, 8,300 square feet ofprefunction space and approximately 1,400 square feet of meeting space. The remaining square feet would be used for a warming kitchen, back of house and some office space. Off-street parking for the new facility will be provided in the existing parking lot to the north of the facility and in a new parking lot that will be constructed at the comer of Costa Del Mar Road and Estrella Drive where the existing spa is currently located. KSL is currently processing plans to construct a new spa and will demolish the existing spa after the new spa is opened for operations. In addition, KSL is currently processing plans pursuant to CUP 258(B) to construct a previously approved, approximately 513 space parking lot on its property at the southeast comer of El Camino Real and Costa Del Mar Road. These 513 spaces will compensate for the spaces that will be used for the new ballroom in the existing parking lot and any spaces that will be lost in connection with construction of the new spa and the ballroom. As such, KSL will be providing new off-street parking on site as required by the City Code for the new ballroom facility. of ~arlsbad I :11 E I I I I I I It.

AIR QUALITY --Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the 0 0 0 X applicable air quality plan? b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute 0 0 X 0 substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net 0 0 0 increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial 0 0 X 0 pollutant concentrations? e) Create objectionable odors affecting a 0 0 X 0 substantial number of people? Comment: Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? No Impact. The project site is located in the San Diego Air Basin which is a federal and state nonattainment area for ozone (03), and a state nonattainment area for particulate matter less than or equal to 1 0 microns in diameter (PM to). The periodic violations of national Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) in the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB), particularly for ozone in inland foothill areas, requires that a plan be developed outlining the pollution controls that will be undertaken to improve air quality. In San Diego County, this attainment planning process is embodied in the Regional Air Quality Strategies (RAQS) developed jointly by the Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). A plan to meet the federal standard for ozone was developed in 1994 during the process of updating the 1991 state-mandated plan. This local plan was combined with plans from all other California nonattainment areas having serious ozone problems and used to create the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP was adopted by the Air Resource Board (ARB) after public hearings on November 9th through 1Oth in 1994, and was forwarded to the Environmental P/A!LCB/LCB-Initiai-Study.doc -5- .. ,, Protection Agency (EPA) for approval. After considerable analysis and debate, particularly regarding airsheds with the worst smog problems, EPA approved the SIP in mid-1996. The proposed project relates to the SIP and/or RAQS through the land use and growth assumptions that are incorporated into the air quality planning document. These growth assumptions are based on each city's and the County's general plan. If a proposed project is consistent with its applicable General Plan, then the project presumably has been anticipated with the regional air quality planning process. Such consistency would ensure that the project would not have an adverse regional air quality impact. Section 15125(B) of the State of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines contains specific reference to the need to evaluate any inconsistencies between the proposed project and the applicable air quality management plan. Transportation Control Measures (TCMs) are part of the RAQS. The RAQS and TCM plan set forth the steps needed to accomplish attainment of state and federal ambient air quality standards. The California Air Resources Board provides criteria for determining whether a project conforms with the RAQS which include the following: • Is the regional air quality plan being implemented in the project area? • Is the project consistent with the growth assumptions in the regional air quality plan? The project area is located in the San Diego Air Basin, and as such, is located in an area where a RAQS is being implemented. The project is consistent with the growth assumptions of the City's General Plan and the RAQS. Therefore, the project is consistent with the regional air quality plan and will in no way conflict or obstruct implementation of the regional plan. b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? Less Than Significant Impact. The closest air quality monitoring station to the project site is in the City of Oceanside. Data available for this monitoring site through April 2002 indicate that the most recent air quality violations recorded were for the state one-hour standard for ozone (one day in both 2000 and 2001) and one day in 2001 for the federal eight-hour average for ozone and one day for the 24-hour site state standard for suspended particulates in 1996. No violations of any other air quality standards have been recorded recently. If there is grading associated with the project, the project would involve minimal short-term emissions associated with grading and construction. Such emissions would be minimized through standard construction measures such as the use of properly tuned equipment and watering the site for dust control. Long-term emissions associated with travel to and from the project will be minimal. Although air pollutant emissions would be associated with the project, they would neither result in the violation of any air quality standard (comprising only an incremental contribution to overall air basin quality readings), nor contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation. An impact is assessed as less than significant. PI A/LCB/LCB-Initiai-Study.doc -6- c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is nonattainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard? Less Than Significant Impact. The Air Basin is currently in a nonattainment zone for ozone and suspended fme particulates. The proposed project would represent a contribution to a cumulatively considerable potential net increase in emissions through the air basin. As described above, however, emissions associated with the proposed project would be minimal. Given the limited emissions potentially associated with the proposed project, air quality would be essentially the same whether or not the proposed project is implemented. According to the CEQA guidelines Section 15130 (a)(4), the proposed project's contribution to the cumulative impact is considered de minimus. Any impact is assessed as less than significant.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE -- a) Does the project have the potential to degrade 0 0 D the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are 0 0 D individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? c) Does the project have environmental effects 0 0 D which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comment: The project site is currently developed and therefore the project constitutes the redevelopment of an existing disturbed site. Thus, implementation of the proposed project does not have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. The project does not have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable, nor does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. Therefore, there is no significant impact associated with the mandatory findings of significance.

D Aesthetics D Agricultural Resources D Air Quality D Biological Resources D Cultural Resources D Geology/Soils 0Noise D Hazards/Hazardous Materials D Population and Housing D Hydrology/Water Quality D Land Use and Planning D Mineral Resources D Mandatory Findings of Significance 2 D Public Services D Recreation D Transportation/Circulation D Utilities & Service Systems Rev. 07/03/02 DETERMINATION. (To be completed by the Lead Agency) IZJ I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. D I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. D I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMP ACT REPORT is required. D I find that the proposed project MAY have "potentially significant impact(s)" on the environment, but at least one potentially significant impact 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. A Negative Declaration is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed. D I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project. Therefore, nothing further is required. Planner Signature Date Date 3 Rev. 07/03/02 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS STATE CEQA GUIDELINES, Chapter 3, Article 5, Section 15063 requires that the City conduct an Environmental Impact Assessment to determine if a project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Environmental Impact Assessment appears in the following pages in the form of a checklist. This checklist identifies any physical, biological and human factors that might be impacted by the proposed project and provides the City with information to use as the basis for deciding whether to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Negative Declaration, or to rely on a previously approved EIR or Negative Declaration. • A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by an information source cited in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved. A "No Impact" answer should be explained when there is no source document to refer to, or it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards. • "Less Than Significant Impact" applies where there is supporting evidence that the potential impact is not significantly adverse, and the impact does not exceed adopted general standards and policies. • "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact." The developer must agree to the mitigation, and the City must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level. • "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significantly adverse. • Based on an "EIA-Part II'', if a proposed project could have a potentially significant adverse effect on the environment, but all potentially significant adverse effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or Mitigated Negative Declaration pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or Mitigated Negative Declaration, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, and none of the circumstances requiring a supplement to or supplemental EIR are present and all the mitigation measures required by the prior environmental document have been incorporated into this project, then no additional environmental document is required. • When "Potentially Significant Impact" is checked the project is not necessarily required to prepare an EIR if the significant adverse effect has been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards and the effect will be mitigated, or a "Statement of Overriding Considerations" has been made pursuant to that earlier EIR. • A Negative Declaration may be prepared if the City perceives no substantial evidence that the project or any of its aspects may cause a significant adverse effect on the environment. • If there are one or more potentially significant adverse effects, the City may avoid preparing an EIR if there are mitigation measures to clearly reduce adverse impacts to less than significant, and those mitigation measures are agreed to by the developer prior to public review. In this case, the appropriate "Potentially Significant Impact Unless Mitigation Incorporated" may be checked and a Mitigated Negative Declaration may be prepared. 4 Rev. 07/03/02 • • • An EIR must be prepared if "Potentially Significant Impact" is checked, and including but not limited to the following circumstances: (1) the potentially significant adverse effect has not been discussed or mitigated in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards, and the developer does not agree to mitigation measures that reduce the adverse impact to less than significant; (2) a "Statement of Overriding Considerations" for the significant adverse impact has not been made pursuant to an earlier EIR; (3) proposed mitigation measures do not reduce the adverse impact to less than significant; or (4) through the EIA-Part II analysis it is not possible to determine the level of significance for a potentially adverse effect, or determine the effectiveness of a mitigation measure in reducing a potentially significant effect to below a level of significance. A discussion of potential impacts and the proposed mitigation measures appears at the end of the form under DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION. Particular attention should be given to discussing mitigation for impacts, which would otherwise be determined significant. Issues (and Supporting Information Sources). I.

The project site is designated Travel Recreational Commercial (TR) in the City's General Plan and is zoned General Commercial (C-2). The proposed site for the ballroom is on the west side of the existing resort development and is currently occupied by parking, landscaping, the Chopra Center (formerly known as the Lifestyle Center), and a portion of the main spa building. To the north of the site are the residential units along Arena! Road, to the west is El Camino Real and the Batiquitos Lagoon. East of the site are the existing hotel buildings and the new spa building (currently under construction). South of the site and across Costa del Mar are residential condominium units. The proposed ballroom would total approximately 42,447 square feet and would include the main ballroom area, supporting areas such as a prep kitchen, storage, small meeting rooms, a pre-function area and restrooms. The proposed development would also include a porte cochere and driveway entry, along with a reconstruction of the existing parking lot to the north of the proposed building. As shown on Exhibits "A"-"D", dated January 15, 2003, the ballroom building would be located on the western portion of the site, adjacent to the existing spa building. The building would measure 35 feet to the top of the roof and would include a non-habitable tower element that extends up to 43.5 feet. The architecture would follow the Mediterranean theme of the existing resort, with tile roof, wood rafter tails and window/door treatments, and an exterior plaster finish. Approximately 29,000 cubic yards of grading is proposed, including 4,000 cubic yards of import and 1,000 cubic yards of remedial grading. The maximum cut .or fill depth is approximately six (6) feet. All grading will be performed in accordance with the recommendations of the project-specific geotechnical report and is required to conform to the City's Grading Ordinance and the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit requirements. In addition, an all-weather access road would be provided throughout construction and Fire Marshal approval would be required prior to the storage of any hazardous materials on site. The project would take access off of Estrella del Mar and Costa del Mar, private roads serving the resort. These roads have direct access to Arena! Road, a local street, and El Camino Real, a prime arterial. According to the project-specific traffic report, the surrounding circulation system is adequate to accommodate the expected 476 average daily trips generated by the proposed ballroom. All facilities needed to serve the site would be provided prior to, or concurrent with, construction of the project. Several mature trees would be removed from the property, however these trees are not native and represent a small proportion of the existing tree canopy on the resort campus. In addition, the landscaping along the eastern frontage of El Camino Real would be enhanced with large shrubs and trees to screen the proposed building from public views from El Camino Real, thereby reducing any potential aesthetic impacts. There are no existing cultural or historical resources on the developed site. Also, due to the developed nature of the site, there are no agricultural operations or sensitive flora or fauna within the project area. No significant mineral resources or other energy sources exist within the resort property. Since the proposed ballroom would be located within the existing resort site, no disruption of existing communities or neighborhoods would occur. Therefore, the proposed La Costa Resort and Spa Ballroom proposal would not create any significant adverse environmental impacts as designed and conditioned. AIR QUALITY-Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? No Impact. The project site is located in the San Diego Air Basin which is a federal and state non-attainment area for ozone (03), and a state non-attainment area for particulate matter less than or equal to 10 microns in diameter (PM10). The periodic violations of national Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) in the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB), particularly for ozone in inland foothill areas, requires that a plan be developed outlining the pollution controls that will be undertaken to improve air quality. In San Diego County, this attainment planning process is embodied in the Regional Air Quality Strategies (RAQS) developed jointly by the Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). 15 Rev. 07/03/02 A plan ~o meet the federal stanld for ozone was developed in 1994 during th~cess of updating the 1991 state- mandated plan. This local plan was combined with plans from all other California non-attainment areas having serious ozone problems and used to create the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP was adopted by the Air Resources Board (ARB) after public hearings on November 9th through lOth in 1994, and was forwarded to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for approval. After considerable analysis and debate, particularly regarding airsheds with the worst smog problems, EPA approved the SIP in mid-1996. The proposed project relates to the SIP and/or RAQS through the land use and growth assumptions that are incorporated into the air quality planning document. These growth assumptions are based on each city's and the County's general plan. If a proposed project is consistent with its applicable General Plan, then the project presumably has been anticipated with the regional air quality planning process. Such consistency would ensure that the project would not have an adverse regional air quality impact. Section 15125(B) of the State of California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines contains specific reference to the need to evaluate any inconsistencies between the proposed project and the applicable air quality management plan. Transportation Control Measures (TCMs) are part of the RAQS. The RAQS and TCM plan set forth the steps needed to accomplish attainment of state and federal ambient air quality standards. The California Air Resources Board provides criteria for determining whether a project conforms with the RAQS which include the following: • Is a regional air quality plan being implemented in the project area? • Is the project consistent with the growth assumptions in the regional air quality plan? The project area is located in the San Diego Air Basin, and as such, is located in an area where a RAQS is being implemented. The project is consistent with the growth assumptions of the City's General Plan and the RAQS. Therefore, the project is consistent with the regional air quality plan and will in no way conflict or obstruct implementation of the regional plan. a) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? Less Than Significant Impact. The closest air quality monitoring station to the project site is in the City of Oceanside. Data available for this monitoring site through April, 2002 indicate that the most recent air quality violations recorded were for the state one hour standard for ozone (one day in both 2000 and 2001) and one day in 2001 for the federal 8-hour average for ozone and one day for the 24-hour state standard for suspended particulates in 1996. No violations of any other air quality standards have been recorded recently. (Add the following text addressing short-term emissions, if there is grading associated with the project.) The project would involve minimal short-term emissions associated with grading and construction. Such emissions would be minimized through standard construction measures such as the use of properly tuned equipment and watering the site for dust control. Long-term emissions associated with travel to and from the project will be minimal. Although air pollutant emissions would be associated with the project, they would neither result in the violation of any air quality standard (comprising only an incremental contribution to overall air basin quality readings), nor contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation. Any impact is assessed as less than significant. b) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard? Less Than Significant Impact. The Air Basin is currently in a non-attainment zone for ozone and suspended fine particulates. The proposed project would represent a contribution to a cumulatively considerable potential net increase in emissions throughout the air basin. As described above, however, emissions associated with the proposed project would be minimal. Given the limited emissions potentially associated with the proposed project, air quality would be essentially the same whether or not the proposed project is implemented. According to the CEQA Guidelines Section 15130 (a)(4), the proposed project's contribution to the cumulative impact is considered de minimus. Any impact is assessed as less than significant. c) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? No Impact. As noted above, the proposed project would not result in substantial pollutant emiSSIOns or concentrations. In addition, there are no sensitive receptors (e.g., schools or hospitals) located in the vicinity of the project. No impact is assessed. 16 Rev. 07/03/02 • d) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people? No Impact. The construction of the proposed project could generate fumes from the operation of construction equipment, which may be considered objectionable by some people. Such exposure would be short-term or transient. In addition, the number of people exposed to such_ transient impacts is not considered substantial. TRANSPORTATIONfi'RAFFIC-Would the project: a) Cause an increase in traffic that is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system? Less Than Significant Impact. The project will generate 476 Average Daily Trips (ADT). This traffic will utilize the following roadways: Estrella del Mar, Arena! Road, Costa del Mar, and El Camino Real. The design capacities of the arterial roads effected by the proposed project are 1,200 and 40,000 vehicles per day. While the increase in traffic from the proposed project may be slightly noticeable, the street system has been designed and sized to accommodate traffic from the project and cumulative development in the City of Carlsbad. The proposed project would not, therefore, cause an increase in traffic that is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system. The impacts from the proposed project are, therefore, Jess than significant. b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? Less Than Significant Impact. SANDAG acting as the County Congestion Management Agency has designated three roads (Rancho Santa Fe Rd., El Camino Real and Palomar Airport Rd.) and two highway segments in Carlsbad as part of the regional circulation system. The Existing and Buildout average daily traffic (ADT) and Existing LOS on these designated roads and highways in Carlsbad is: Existing ADT* LOS Buildout ADT* Rancho Santa Fe Road 15-32 "A-C" 28-43 El Camino Real 21-50 "A-C" 32-65 Palomar Airport Road 10-52 "A-B" 29-77 SR 78 120 "F' 144 1-5 183-198 "D" 219-249 *The numbers are in thousands of daily trips. The Congestion Management Program's (CMP) acceptable Level of Service (LOS) standard is "E", or LOS "F' if that was the LOS in the 1990 base year (e.g., SR 78 in Carlsbad was LOS "F' in 1990). Accordingly, all designated roads and highways are currently operating at or better than the acceptable standard LOS. Note that the buildout ADT projections are based on the full implementation of the region's general and community plans. The proposed project is consistent with the general plan and, therefore, its traffic was used in modeling the buildout projections. Achievement of the CMP acceptable Level of Service (LOS) "E" standard assumes implementation of the adopted CMP strategies. Based on the design capacity(ies) of the designated roads and highways and implementation of the CMP strategies, they will function at acceptable level(s) of service in the short- term and at buildout. a) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks? No Impact. The proposed project does not include any aviation components. The project is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the McClellan-Palomar Airport. It would not, therefore, result in a change of air traffic patterns or result in substantial safety risks. No impact assessed. b) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature or incompatible uses? 17 Rev. 07/03/02 No Impact. All project circul. improvements will be designed and construclto City standards; and, therefore. would not result in design hazards. The proposed project is consistent with the City's general plan and zoning. Therefore, it would not increase hazards due to an incompatible use. No impact assessed. c) Result in inadequate emergency access? No Impact. The proposed project has been designed to satisfy the emergency requirements of the Fire and Police Departments. No impact assessed. d) Result in inadequate parking capacity? No Impact. The proposed project is not requesting a parking variance. Additionally, the project would comply with the City's parking requirements to ensure an adequate parking supply. No impact assessed. e) Conflict with adopted policies, plans or programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks, etc.)? No Impact. (Note whether the project is near public transportation. If not, then state that the project is not served by or not located in an area conducive to public transportation.) (Note bike racks are not necessary for a single- family residential project. Otherwise, condition the project to install bike racks and note here that the project has been so conditioned.)

Please note that, in order to make the tentatively scheduled Planning Commission hearing date of December 18, 2002, all issues must resolved to staff's satisfaction before December 6, 2002. Please also note that, as stated in our September 30, 2002 pre-application meeting, it was agreed that staff may take up to two weeks (i.e. ten working days) to respond. You should also be advised that, given this expedited schedule, the staff report (including approving resolutions and environmental review) are being prepared by staff in a good faith expectation that the stated issues will be completely resolved in a timely manner. Should the issues listed in the attached letter not be resolved, your project would be scheduled for the January 15, 2002 Planning Commission hearing.

On November 14, 2002, the Planning Department sent a correspondence to the applicant for the La Costa Spa and Resort Ballroom application (KSL Development Corp) that stated the application was complete and listed the issues of concern to staff. In that letter, staff informed the applicant that the project was tentatively scheduled for the December 18, 2002 Planning Commission, however, all issues would need to be resolved by December 6, 2002 in order to stay on the agenda. The December 6, 2002 deadline was three working days prior to the distribution of staff reports to the Planning Commission and would still necessitate a three-day expedited review of the documents by Planning Management and the City Attorney's office (as opposed to the standard eight day period). The letter also reminded the applicant of the agreements reached at our September 30, 2002 meeting, namely that staff committed to a two-week (ten working day) turn around rather than the standard four-week response time. Therefore, provided that their resubmittal satisfactorily addressed all of the issues and was received on of before November 21, 2002, staff could keep the project on the agenda. The applicant resubmitted the project on the afternoon of November 27, 2002, less than ten calendar days from the December 6, 2002 deadline. Had the project been resubmitted in enough time to accommodate the review times agreed to by both parties at the September 30, 2002 meeting, there would have been enough time to process the staff report and notice the environmental review documents. Since this resubmittal was not received, the environmental review documents were not noticed and the item was pulled from the tentative agenda. The application is now scheduled for the January 15, 2003 Planning Commission meeting, which is three months from the time of project submittal. I would be happy to discuss this issue with you at your convenience. Thank you. /1{/~ MICHAEL GRi~L 7 C: Planning Director Assistant Planning Director . Principal Planner City of Carlsbad ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT SERVICES MEMORANDUM November 7, 2002 TO: Mike Grim, Planning FROM: Jeremy Riddle, Engineerin SUBJECT: FIRST REVIEW OF LA COSTA BALLROOM (CUP 258(C)/SUP 02-08, APN 216-123-07 & 05, 216-21 0-04) Engineering Department staff has completed a review of the application submittal documents for application completeness. The application and plans are considered complete. However, we have identified the following items that must be clarified or addressed prior to approval of this project: 1. Add the application numbers (CUP 258(c) & SUP 02-08) to the upper right- hand corners of the exhibits. 2. Revise the plans to clarify how a fire truck (using 407E turning-template) can access the proposed fire hydrant in the southerly parking lot. If the fire hydrant is not accessible, the hydrant serves no benefit during a fire or emergency. Will a truck have to perform a 3-point turn at the end of the drive aisle to exit the parking lot? 3. Revise site plans so the proposed waterlines are located in the center of drive aisles, not through parking stalls (typical). Refer to redlines for clarification on this matter. 4. Revise the site plan to clarify how the storm water collected by the inlet near the southern parking lot will be filtered of pollutants before being discharged to Costa Del Mar Place. Add a note to the plans to clarify this issue. 5. Revise the plans to identify the anticipated remedial earthwork quantities. 6. Revise the site plan to clarify the size of the potable water service (currently listed as 2 1/2 -inch). Carlsbad Municipal Water District only permits 1-inch and 2-inch copper services. If more than 2-inch is required, consider multiple services (possible and 2-inch and a 1-inch potable service). 7. Consider installing an irrigation service off the long fire hydrant line in the southern parking lot. This will encourage flow in the dead-end pipe and address water quality of the potable water system that serves this project. 8. Add CMWD water easements along all fire hydrant laterals (typical). Refer to La Costa Ballroom November 8, 2002 Page 2 of2 the red lines for clarification on this issue. 9. Meet with the Fire Marshal to ensure that all fire protection devices are incorporated and that fire access/circulation has been adequately addressed. If more fire hydrants are required, more access issues may arise on next submittal. 10. Clarify the size and type of the existing water main where the storm drain crosses near the southwest corner of the project. 11. Clarify the size and type of existing sewer near the southwest corner of the project. Callout the record data that created the easement (per document ___ , dated . Is the easement public or private? 12. Revise the parking lot layout to incorporate 5' x 5' clearances at each corner parking stall (typical). Refer to the redlines and schematic noted on the returned plans. 13. Clarify how the trash service company will serve the project. Will trash enclosures be used? If so, refer to Carlsbad Standard drawing GS-16. 14. Clarify if a sump pump will be required to drain the low point in the truck loading bay, or if the grate inlet connects to the storm drain by gravity. 15. Relocate the irrigation and fire service check valves just outside the CMWD easement line. The check valves are typically located at this position per CMWD standards. 16. Clarify if the driveway entrance at the front of the ballroom will be one-way. If it will be two-way, the minimum width shall be 24-feet. 17. Add the inside and outside turning tracks of a 42-foot vehicle per 407E. These tracks must be shown at each 90-degree turn that must be accomplished to ensure trash trucks and fire trucks can maneuver throughout the site. 18. Identify the hydraulic grade line (pressure zone) of the existing and proposed waterline for reference. 19. Include pedestrian ramps along Estrella Del Mar Road as noted on the redlines. Clarify if a mid-block pedestrian ramp is required to help compliment the other pedestrian ramp across the street. 20. Revise the site plan to demonstrate the terminus of the proposed storm drain. Will it connect to an existing facility or surface drain? The current plans do not Enclosed is a redlined check-print of the project. This check print must be returned with the revised plans to facilitate continued staff review. If you have any questions, please call me at telephone (760) 602-2737.

Please note that labels, assessor's rolls and maps will be coming under separate cover within the next several days. As to our community outreach efforts, we have carried out the following: A: Discussions with a number of our neighboring members B: Discussions with a number ofHOA representatives C: Discussions with representatives of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce D: Briefings at a number of area service clubs E: Briefings with selected community leaders These discussions serve several purposes. First, we are able to outline our plans for the Resort and second, we are able to quantify and deal with concerns that have been raised. Clearly, we have not reached each and every "neighbor" within the 600-foot radius requirement. As such, we will continue to carry out an on going outreach effort and continue to address areas of concern as each may arise beyond the completion of the permitting process. In the long-term, we believe community outreach is in the best interest ofthe Resort, it's neighbors and the City of Carlsbad. 55,920 PGA Boulevard • La Quinta, CA 92253 • (760) 564,8000 • Fax (760) 564,7131 • Please feel free to contact us directly should you have questions or comments.

Re: Application for CUP/SUP #258(C) Amendment Dear Mike: In connection with the above application, we are providing you with two exhibits -- Sheets 4A and 4B. These plans and the information in this letter address Items 1-8 in your October 28 email and letter from Mr. Holzmiller dated November 13, 2002. Exhibit 4A is a Pedestrian Esplanade Plan illustrating the connection between the parking facilities south of Costa del Mar Road (pursuant to existing CUP 258(B)) and the ballroom, spa and other campus facilities. The Master Plan will include a pedestrian system; the palm lined esplanades will provide an identifiable pathway from the new parking lot south of Costa del Mar Road to provide easy and direct access from that lot to the ballroom and other areas of the Resort. Although we are providing this pedestrian connection, as noted in the parking analysis submitted with the application, required parking for the ballroom is provided in the area immediately surrounding the ballroom. This plan also shows the existing track along the west side of the project area that will be removed and the location where it will be reconstructed as an interim facility until the pedestrian esplanade system in the Master Plan is implemented. Although the current track is used only to a limited extent, we anticipate that the Master Plan will provide for numerous pedestrian paths and areas available for recreational/exercise use and to serve the guests within the context of the resort campus as a whole experience. Exhibit 4B is a Plant Material Demolition, Relocation and Preservation Plan. This Plan identifies the location, size, type and disposition of all matures trees located in the area of work identified in the application. This exhibit also locates and identifies plant material in the vicinity ofthe improvements that will be protected and will remain after completion of the improvements. Additionally, the plant identifies the landscaping that will be preserved along El Mr. Michael W. Grim November 14, 2002 Page2 Allen Matkins Leek oantlae & Mallory LLP attorneys at law improvements. Additionally, the plant identifies the landscaping that will be preserved along El Camino Real that will help screen the ballroom building and redesigned parking area from sight along El Camino Real. The existing Spa Hotel Units have been extensively remodeled by KSL and will be used during and after the construction of the ballroom. The personnel and laundry buildings adjacent to the spa hotel units will be removed at the completion of ballroom construction and may be used during the construction process. The removal and disposition of these outdated structures will be illustrated in the plan graphics to be provided prior to the public hearing. The approximately 388 parking spaces shown on the originally approved CUP exhibit include the existing parking spaces north of the Chopra Center (which is identified on the original CUP exhibit as a lifestyle center). Although the original CUP exhibit identifies the 388 spaces in a smaller area, only approximately 211 of the 388 spaces could actually fit in the highlighted area when scaled at 8.5' x 20' on the shown exhibit-the balance of the 388 were constructed in the area north of the Chopra Center building outside of the "highlighted" area on the exhibit. The loss of these spaces was already taken into account in the calculation on sheet 3 showing 70 places displaced by the new ballroom. With respect to the status of the Master Plan, on October 13th, a letter was submitted to the Planning Director requesting a pre-application meeting to scope the requirements of the process within the guidelines of the City of Carlsbad. The meeting is scheduled for November 21 at 9:30am. We hope that you will attend so we can benefit from your participation in that process. We will be addressing the other issues in the November 13 letter separately. If you need any additional information regarding the above issues, please let us know. As you know, it is imperative that we stay on schedule for the December planning commission hearing and we appreciate your efforts in keeping us on schedule.

The Planning Department has reviewed your Conditional Use Permit Amendment and Special Use Permit, application no. CUP 258(C)/SUP 02-08, as to its completeness for processing. The application is complete, as submitted. Although the initial processing of your application may have already begun, the technical acceptance date is acknowledged by the date of this communication. The City may, in the course of processing the application, request that you clarify, amplify, correct, or otherwise, supplement the basic information required for the application. In addition, you should also be aware that various design issues exist. These issues are listed below and must be resolved for staff to set a firm Planning Commission hearing date. The Planning Department has tentatively scheduled the above-referenced project for the Planning Commission hearing of December 18, 2002. In order to be heard at that Planning Commission hearing, the issues referenced below must be resolved prior to December 6, 2002. Please also remember that, as discussed at the September 30, 2002 meeting between City staff and the project applicant's team, staff review of project resubmittals can take up to ten working days.

No. CUP 258(C)/SUP 02-08-LA COSTA RESORT AND SPA BALLROOM Planning: • • In order to expedite processing of the application, the following Planning Department comments were sent to your team via e-mail on October 28, 2002 and have not been resolved as of the date of this correspondence: 1. There are a large amount of mature trees on the site that will likely need to be removed. Please provide a plan indicating the location, size, type, and disposition of all mature trees within the project area. 2. There is currently landscaping along El Camino Real that may serve to assist in screening the redesigned parking area and future ballroom building. Since this landscaping is outside of the •area of work", it was not shown on the submitted exhibits. Please add an accurate depiction of this landscaping to the project plans, indicating type, height and coverage to assist staff in determining what additional landscaping or other screening materials will be needed to provide an aesthetically positive view from the adjacent scenic corridor, El Camino Real. 3. 4. It appears from site visits and plan review that the exercise track on the west side of the site will be eliminated by the parking lot redesign. Please provide background information on this recreational feature (e.g. how much usage it gets, will there be any replacement recreational opportunities, etc.) Please provide information on the project plans indicating the ultimate disposition of the personnel and laundry buildings, the nearby hotel rooms to the south, and the associated parking to the west. Please also indicate on the project plans the proposed condition for the area vacated by the spa building demolition. This area will need to be landscaped in ·accordance with the City's Landscape Manual and, depending on the information on the mature tree exhibit, may require additional landscaping. 5. Please indicate how many parking spaces currently exist north of the Chopra Center. The submitted plans only include those spaces in the northernmost portion of the parking lot but do not include the parking directly north of the Chopra Center building. 6. In order to consider the new parking area south of Costa del Mar as serving the ballroom facility, a direct pedestrian link between the parking area and the ballroom facility is needed. This will necessitate a crosswalk across Costa del Mar and a pedestrian path connecting the street to the buildings to the north (rather than having pedestrians travel the more circuitous route on the existing sidewalk). Please indicate these features on the project plans. 8. The landscaping adjacent to the proposed parking area at the intersection of Costa del Mar and Estrella del Mar is rather sparse. Please enhance the proposed landscaping to the extent feasible without creating safe sight-distance traffic corridor issues. 9 . Staff has indicated on several previous occasions that the westerly elevations for the ballroom are unacceptable as proposed. This elevation contains the least amount of articulation and yet is the elevation facing towards the scenic corridor of El Camino Real. Please enhance these elevations to include more building articulation as previously requested. • • • Engineering: 1. Add the application numbers (CUP 258(c) & SUP 02-08) to the upper right-hand corners of the exhibits. 2. Revise the plans to clarity how a fire truck (using 407E turning-template) can access the proposed fire hydrant in the southerly parking lot. If the fire hydrant is not accessible, the hydrant serves no benefit during a fire or emergency. Will a truck have to perform a 3-point turn at the end of the drive aisle to exit the parking lot? 3. Revise site plans so the proposed waterlines are located in the center of drive aisles, not through parking stalls (typical). Refer to redlines for clarification on this matter. 4. Revise the site plan to clarify how the storm water collected by the inlet near the southern parking lot will be filtered of pollutants before being discharged to Costa Del Mar Place. Add a note to the plans to clarity this issue. 5. Revise the plans to identify the anticipated remedial earthwork quantities. 6. Revise the site plan to clarity the size of the potable water service (currently listed as 2 1/2 -inch). Carlsbad Municipal Water District only permits 1-inch and 2-inch copper services. If more than 2-inch is required, consider multiple services (possible and 2-inch and a 1-inch potable service). 7. Consider installing an irrigation service off the long fire hydrant line in the southern parking lot. This will encourage flow in the dead-end pipe and address water quality of the potable water system that serves this project. 8. 9. 10. Add CMWD water easements along all fire hydrant laterals (typical). Refer to the redlines for clarification on this issue . Meet with the Fire Marshal to ensure that all fire protection devices are incorporated and that fire access/circulation has been adequately addressed. If more fire hydrants are required, more access issues may arise on next submittal. Clarify the size and type of the existing water main where the storm drain crosses near the southwest corner of the project. 11. Clarify the size and type of existing sewer near the southwest corner of the project. Callout the record data that created the easement (per document , dated ____ ). Is the easement public or private? 12. Revise the parking lot layout to incorporate 5' x 5' clearances at each corner parking stall (typical). Refer to the redlines and schematic noted on the returned plans. 13. Clarify how the trash service company will serve the project. Will trash enclosures be used? If so, refer to Carlsbad Standard drawing GS-16. 14. Clarify if a sump pump will be required to drain the low point in the truck loading bay, or if the grate inlet connects to the storm drain by gravity. 15. Relocate the irrigation and fire service check valves just outside the CMWD easement line. The check valves are typically located at this position per CMWD standards. 16. Clarify if the driveway entrance at the front of the ballroom will be one-way. If it will be two-way, the minimum width shall be 24-feet. 17. Add the inside and outside turning tracks of a 42-foot vehicle per 407E. These tracks must be shown at each 90-degree turn that must be accomplished to ensure trash trucks and fire trucks can maneuver throughout the site. • • • .. 18. 19. ----·---------------------------------------------------- Identify the hydraulic grade line (pressure zone) of the existing and proposed waterline for reference . Include pedestrian ramps along Estrella Del Mar Road as noted on the redlines. Clarify if a mid-block pedestrian ramp is required to help compliment the other pedestrian ramp across the street. 20. Revise the site plan to demonstrate the terminus of the proposed storm drain. Will it connect to an existing facility or surface drain? The current plans do not Enclosed is a redlined check-print of the project. This check print must be returned with the revised plans to facilitate continued staff review. Fire Department: The following comments were previously forwarded to your team and remain unresolved as of the date of this correspondence: 1. Please submit plans showing the point of connection in the street, including detector check assembly, for lateral service which will serve the ballroom fire sprinkler system (recommended Febco 876N or equivalent). 2. Fire hydrants are required at 300 foot intervals around the entire proposed building. A minimum of 1 ,000 gpm per hydrant at 20 psi with two hydrants flowing for two hour duration is required. Please submit calculations for said fire flow. If hydrants are proposed off private fire service to building, please show. 3 . Please eliminate the hydrant shown out in the parking lot. Hydrants shall be around the building at 300 foot spacing and a minimum of 40 feet from the building. Blue dot reflectors are required in the parking area to identify hydrant locations.

Since the site is zoned as Commercial, much of the work is being done by right, which means that no discretionary approvals are needed from the City of Carlsbad. For a review of the improvements proposed or already received, please contact the Building Department at (760) 602-2719. I cannot copy the building plans as they are copyrighted information and approval would need to be secured from the plan owners. RLN Design, 200 Baker Street, Costa Mesa, CA 92626, (714) 641-0191 is processing the improvements. There is also proposed a new ballroom addition. This application does require an amendment to their Conditional Use Permit. Please find attached copies of the past approvals, the current project description, summary of all the uses on site, and plans of the new building. The plans are not the complete set, but probably the most useful information. The project will be going to public hearing in the next few months. You can subscribe, for free, to the City of Carlsbad to receive the public notices, agendas, and minutes of the Planning Commission.

Re: Leucadia County Water District Sewer Availability Letter for The Ballroom Building at La Costa Resort and Spa Dear Mr. Cusick: The subject property is currently within the Leucadia County Water District's (LCWD) sewer service boundary and the existing facility is served by LCWD. We understand that the proposed Ballroom Building will include seating for as many as 1,000. This translates to an increase of 143 Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDUs) to the existing La Costa Resort & Spa. Our analysis of the existing system indicates sewer is available for this use with no new regional facility upgrades required. Prior to obtaining sewer permits for the additional level of sewer service, LCWD requirements must be met and are outlined below in the LCWD Standard Specifications including: • • • • Payment of plan check fees paid to LCWD Complete Plan Check process Development Agreement with LCWD prior to start of construction Pay all other LCWD applicable fees and deposits Connection fees for any additional EDUs must be paid to the District not later than when pulling building permits from the City of Carlsbad. The District assesses connection fees of $3,950 for each additional Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) as defined in the LCWD Standard Specifications. The District also assesses an annual sewer service fee of $176 per EDU per year. Connection fees and sewer service fees are subject to change from time to time by action of the LCWD Board of Directors.
