Lusk & Son P. 0. Box 2140 Ne,..port Beach, California 92663 Subject: Conditional Use Permit No. 89 Carlsbad Planning Commission Resolution 646 Thank you for your courtesy in coming by my office yester- day in order to try to resolve the questions about the validity of the Mobile Home Park C.U.P. Several staff members have spent considerable time since then reviewing the matter with me and the picture seems very clear. The City's original Zoning Ordinance adopted in 1956, pro- vided for the exercising of various permits, including C.U.P.'s, within one year from issuance. This section has been codified into the Municipal Code as Section 21.58.020 as follows: "Any permit or variance granted by the planning commission or city council becomes null and void if not exercised within the time specified in such permit, variance or approval, or if no date is specified, within one year from the date of approval of the permit or variance. (Ord. 9337 § 1, 1973: Ord. 9060 S 2201)." Exercising the permit has generally been interpreted as beginning construction. In 1968 a C.U.P. for the construction of a Mobile Home Park was granted to H. B. Development Company. That portion under C.U.P. lying south of the proposed Poinsettia Street extension was later sold to Sequoia Pacific Realco. September 13, 1974 Page 2 Subject: Conditional Use Permit No. 89 Planning Commission Resolution 646 Sequoia Pacific, after beginning their development program and finding that time would be a factor in completion, began conversations with the City to phase their portion of the C.U.P. It was agreed that this could be done in three phases as outlined in the City Attorney's letter dated March 23, 1971. That right was clearly intended to apply only to Sequoia's holdings, which were south of 3insettia. the project within the time limits agreed to, but in two phases. This is certainly permissible. It appears now that they will in fact complete No provisions for phasing have ever been made or intended for that portion of the C.U.P. north of Poinsettia and it, therefore, falls under the provisions of Municipal Code Section 21.42.040 which states: "Unless otherwise stated in writing in the resolution granting the conditional use permit, a conditional use permit shall automatically be void and of no further force and effect if construction of the proposed use granted thereby is not completed within one year from the date of granting of the permit. (Ord, 9252 $1 (part), 1970: Ord. 9060 § 1403) .'I This was adopted in 1970 and the City Attorney (Lewis A. Moe) was well aware of this when he wrote his letter dated March 23, 1971 to Sequoia Pacific. If you wish to proceed with the original project, or a similar one, you would therefore be required to file a new C.U.P. application, If I can be of any further help in this matter, please City Manager PDB: ldg Enclosures cc: City Attorney Planning Director _- (1 I 21.58.010--21.58.020 I Chapter 21.58 REVOCATION--EXPIRATION Sections : 21.58.010 Revocation of permits or variance. 21.58.020 Expiration. 21.58.010 Revocation of permits or variance.
