Buhr -SD StaffReport: February 13, 2013 Hearing Date: March 7, 2013 STAFF REPORT: CONSENT CALENDAR Application No.: 6-12-087 Applicant: Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside Agent: Jon Schable and Pam Drew Location: The project site is located along Carlsbad Boulevard/South Coast Highway from Eaton Street south to State Street and then extending further south along State Street until Oak A venue, Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside, San Diego County. Project Description: Construction of the Carlsbad Coastal Rail Trail Reach 1 which would include: 1) construction of Coastal Rail Trail; 2) installation of Class II bike lanes; 3) construction of sidewalk; 4) restripe of roadway from three to two lanes; 5) construction of a round-a-bout; and 6) landscaping installation. Staff Recommendation: Approval with conditions. SUMMARY OF STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The applicants propose to construct Reach 1 of the Coastal Rail Trail (CRT) within the City of Carlsbad and extending north into the City of Oceanside. In order to facilitate this project the applicants propose to construct a roundabout at the intersection of Carlsbad Boulevard and State Street to facilitate pedestrian and bicyclist access to the CRT across this intersection. The proposed project also proposes to connect the Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside with a pedestrian trail and Class 1 bicycle path (CRT), Class II 6-12-087 (Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside) bicycle lanes, Class III bicycle signage and "Sharrows" along State Street, and a sidewalk on the northbound side of Carlsbad Boulevard across Buena Vista Lagoon. A northbound travel lane along Carlsbad Boulevard would be eliminated in order to accommodate the proposed multimodal travel enhancements within the existing right-of-way. The major Coastal Act issues associated with the proposed project include potential adverse impacts to public access and to adjacent coastal resources located with Buena Vista Lagoon. These impacts would be caused by construction activities, as well as the addition of a roundabout and the deletion of a travel lane. As a whole, the project would improve multi-modal coastal access through the area and function to enhance pedestrian and cyclist connectivity along an important north/south coastal arterial. Potential impacts to water quality and biological resources are remedied through the attached special conditions. Commission staff is recommending that the Commission APPROVE a coastal development permit for the proposed development with six (6) special conditions addressing these potential adverse impacts. Impacts to water quality are addressed through Special Conditions #1, and #2 which require adherence to the submitted storm water management plan and place restrictions on temporary construction methods and identification of erosion control methods. Timing of construction is restricted by Special Condition #3 which restricts construction activities to occur outside of the nesting season. Special Condition #4 requires that the applicant adhere to the submitted landscaping planting palette, Special Condition #5 requires pre and post surveys of impacted wetland conditions and Special Condition #6 requires submittal of state or federal discretionary permits for the development authorized by this permit. Standard of Review: Portions of the proposed project are located within the City of Carlsbad's Local Coastal Program, the City of Oceanside's Local Coastal Program and areas of retained jurisdiction within the Coastal Zone that are still under the jurisdiction of the Commission. The Cities of Carlsbad, Oceanside and the Commission have agreed to process the proposed project as a consolidated permit and therefore the Chapter 3 policies of the Coastal Act are the standard of review for the proposed project. 2 6-12-087 (Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside) TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

IV. FINDINGS AND DECLARATIONS A. DETAILED PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed project consists of the construction of Reach I of the Coastal Rail Trail (CRT) within the City of Carlsbad that would be a part of the larger regional multi-modal CRT project. The project limits extend from Oak Street in the City of Carlsbad and extend north along State Street until it merges with Carlsbad Boulevard, from here, the project continues north along Carlsbad Boulevard/South Coast Highway where it crosses Buena Vista Lagoon until it reaches its northern terminus at Eaton Street in the City of Oceanside. The proposed section of the CRT that is the subject of this permit application would connect with the already constructed Reach 2 of the CRT in the City of Carlsbad located south of the subject site at Oak Street, and Phase I ofthe CRT located in the City of Oceanside immediately north of the subject site at Eaton Street. (Exhibit 1 and 2). To accommodate the proposed section of the CRT, the applicants propose to construct a roundabout at the intersection of Carlsbad Boulevard and State Street to facilitate pedestrian and bicyclist access to the CRT across this intersection. The proposed project also proposes to connect the Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside with a pedestrian trail and Class 1 bicycle path (CRT), Class II bicycle lanes, Class III bicycle signage and "Sharrows" (a Sharrow is a pavement marking installed on streets popular with bicyclists but too narrow for conventional bike lanes) along State Street, and a sidewalk on the northbound side of Carlsbad Boulevard across Buena Vista Lagoon (Exhibit 4 and 5). The applicants propose the subject enhancements to improve the pedestrian and bicycling environment while maintaining the traffic flow within the subject area. In its existing condition, Carlsbad Boulevard/South Coast Highway consists of two northbound travel lanes and one southbound travel lane. The intersection of State Street and Carlsbad Boulevard is a three legged, uncontrolled intersection without crosswalks. There are currently no sidewalks or bike lanes that extend across Buena Vista Lagoon creating a hazardous environment for non-automobile travelers through this section of roadway connecting the coastal cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside (Exhibit 3). In order to accommodate the proposed CRT section and other proposed pedestrian and bicycle amenities, the applicant proposes to reduce the travel lanes to a single vehicular lane in each direction, thereby eliminating one lane of travel across the lagoon (Exhibit 4 and 5). This reduction in the number of travel lanes would allow for the construction of the CRT section, Class II bike lanes and a sidewalk without expanding the footprint of the roadway beyond the limits of the existing disturbed right-of-way. There is also some informal parking that currently exists along Carlsbad Boulevard that would no longer be accessible with completion of the proposed project. These parking spots provide access to a recreational fishing access point located on the bridge where 10 6-12-087 (Cities ofCarlsbad and Oceanside) Carlsbad Boulevard crosses Buena Vista Lagoon. The applicants have identified that surplus parking is available at the directly adjacent Audubon Nature Center for users of the fishing access points, and furthermore identify that the proposed project would provide safer access to the fishing opportunities along the bridge while also creating a buffer between these location and the vehicular travel lanes that presently does not exist resulting in a safer environment for all users. The proposed project is located directly adjacent to sensitive coastal resources located within Buena Vista Lagoon and includes improvements to existing storm water treatment and landscaping over existing conditions. No impacts to the adjacent sensitive resources are expected or proposed, Special Condition #5 requires that the applicant conduct post construction surveys to ensure that any potential impacts are identified and mitigated appropriately. Special Condition #1 requires that the applicant adhere to the submitted storm water management plan for the project that includes drainage plans delineating BMPs and water quality treatment features that are designed to treat run-off from the subject area to the greatest extent feasible. Special Condition #2 places restrictions on temporary construction methods and identifies appropriate erosion control methods. Special Condition #4 requires that the applicant adhere to the submitted landscaping plan and prohibits the installation of any invasive, non-native species (Exhibit 6). The proposed development, as conditioned, is consistent with all applicable Chapter 3 policies of the Coastal Act. The proposed project would not increase the capacity of the roadway segment, but would function to improve safety for both vehicular and non- vehicular travelers. There will be no increased discharge of pollutants that would impact the adjacent coastal resources, and there would be no visual impacts as the proposed improvements are compatible with the existing pattern of development and would not block or alter any existing coastal views. Portions ofthe subject site are located within the jurisdictions ofthe Cities ofCarlsbad's and Oceanside's Local Coastal Programs, while other areas of the proposed project are located in areas of original jurisdiction where the Commission still has jurisdiction. Section 30601.3 authorizes the Commission to process a consolidated coastal development permit application when requested by the local government and the applicant and approved by the Executive Director for projects that would otherwise require coastal development permits from both the Commission and from a local government with a certified LCP. The policies of Chapter 3 ofthe Coastal Act provide the legal standard of review for a consolidated coastal development permit application submitted pursuant to Section 30601.3, with the local government's certified LCP used as guidance. B. PUBLIC ACCESS The goal of the proposed project is to improve access and safety for all users through the subject site. Under existing conditions there are no bike lanes or pedestrian trails/sidewalks that extend along Carlsbad Boulevard/South Coast Highway where it crosses Buena Vista Lagoon. The proposed CRT Reach would connect with existing trail sections located immediately to the north and south of the subject site while also 11 6-12-087 (Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside) providing safe travel for non-vehicular travelers across Buena Vista Lagoon that is presently unavailable. The proposed project would also facilitate travel for cyclists through the subject area through the addition of Class II bike lanes across the lagoon, and the addition of Sharrows along State Street as well. The proposed roundabout feature would also serve to improve safety conditions for all users through the subject intersection of State Street and Carlsbad Boulevard. Under existing conditions, this intersection is a three legged, uncontrolled intersection without crosswalks, and the only existing bike lane or sidewalk terminates abruptly in the middle fork of the intersection, without any associated crosswalks for access from the center of eth intersection (Exhibit 3). These conditions have resulted in a numbers of accidents at this intersection, including collisions between vehicles and pedestrians and cyclists. In order to accommodate the proposed pedestrian and cyclist amenities the project would eliminate one northbound travel lane across the lagoon. The applicant conducted a traffic analysis that identified that the reduction in travel lanes would result in no change in level of service for the identified roadway segments under existing or forecasted year 2035 travel demands. The traffic analysis also investigated the effects of the proposed roundabout on travel conditions through the subject site. The study identified that post project conditions would enhance multimodal benefits by providing improved safety for pedestrians and cyclists through the subject site. The roundabout would reduce vehicle speeds through the intersection while also providing crosswalks to facilitate safe crossing conditions for pedestrians and cyclists alike. Inherent in the design of a roundabout is the application of reducing vehicle speeds to afford these benefits to non-vehicular users; these reductions in travel speeds though, do result in a slightly decreased level of service through the subject intersection over existing conditions. This reduction of travel time for vehicles however, only exists for travel through the roundabout intersection itself, and as presented previously the capacity ofthe roadway remains sufficient to maintain existing and forecasted travel demands. When compared to the benefits the proposed project provides overall to public access for a range of multimodal users, the slight reduction in level of service for vehicles through the intersection is acceptable and would not result in a conflict with the public access policies ofthe.Coastal Act. · The Commission finds that only as conditioned and described above, can the proposed development be found consistent with Sections 30210 through 30214, Sections 30220 through 30224, Section 30252 and Section 30604(c) of the Coastal Act. The proposed development will not have an adverse impact on public access to the coast or to nearby recreational facilities. C. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES No impacts to sensitive biological resources are proposed. However, the proposed project would result in a permanent encroachment of 0.0003 acres into an existing shallow earthen drainage feature. Presently this feature is comprised entirely of iceplant (Carpbrotus edulis), and does not appear to have functioned as a drainage for quite some 12 6-12-087 (Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside) time. The applicant proposes to revegetate this area, and the impacted roadway shoulders throughout the subject site with a native planting palette that would provide enhancement to biological coastal resources while also serve to improve water quality treatment when compared to existing conditions. Special Condition #5 requires a post construction survey take place to identify any unanticipated temporary impacts to wetland or upland habitats that occurred during project construction and requires restoration plans for any impacted areas identified. The Commission finds that only as conditioned and described above, can the proposed development be found consistent with Sections 30233 and 30240 of the Coastal Act which require biological resources be protected, and where possible, enhanced. As conditioned, the project will not have an adverse impact on any sensitive habitats or wetland areas. Thus, the project is consistent with the resource protection policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act. D. WATER QUALITY Pollutants found in highway runoff degrade coastal waters and negatively impact wetland habitats. These pollutants commonly include: sediment eroded from surrounding lands, highway embankments and cut slopes, eroding streambeds and banks, nutrients from plant debris, organic soils, fertilizer, vehicle exhaust, emulsifiers and surfactants, pesticides, dissolved and particulate metals, and trash. In order to minimize the potential adverse impacts to water quality and aquatic resources resulting from runoff in the post- development stage, the Commission requires the incorporation of Best Management Practices designed to control the volume, velocity and pollutant load of runoff including: 1) site design, source control and/or treatment control measures; 2) implementing erosion sediment control measures during construction and post construction; and 3) revegetating all graded and disturbed areas with primarily native landscaping. The proposed project results in a net reduction of impervious surface areas associated with roadways and therefore would likely result in a reduction of pollutants generated within the subject area. Areas of increased impervious surfaces would be associated with trail and Class I bike facilities (CRT Reach 1). The proposed project would introduce vegetated strips into the roadway footprint that would serve to disconnect impervious surface areas and allow for improved filtration and infiltration of runoff before exiting the project footprint. The project would also include storm drain inserts to provide additional treatment and removal of potential pollutants. Special Condition #1 requires the applicant to comply with the submitted Storm Water Management Plan that includes all of these provisions as well as other standard storm water treatment techniques as well. During the construction phase, due to grading, the main potential pollutant of concern would be sediment. Other potential pollutant sources are pavement grindings, concrete debris and asphalt and concrete slurries, as well as fuel and lubricants from construction equipment. Standard erosion control practices are proposed to minimize sedimentation during and following construction activities. Temporary BMPs anticipated for this project include fiber rolls, controlled construction entrances, sweeping, temporary drainage inlet protection, and portable concrete washouts. To ensure that water quality 13 6-12-087 (Cities ofCarlsbad and Oceanside) remains a priority during construction, the project will employ non-structural BMPs, including material storage BMPs, inspections, and non-visible pollutant monitoring. Special Condition #2 requires the applicant to include erosion control/water quality management measures specific to any proposed staging areas and a detailed plan for the storage and containment of construction-related chemicals and materials. Special Condition #2 also requires the applicant to include trash and debris disposal and an accidental spills clean-up plan within their water quality program. The Commission finds that only as conditioned as described above, can the proposed development be found consistent with Section 30231 of the Coastal Act which requires hydrological resources and floodplains be protected, and where possible, enhanced. As conditioned, the project will not result in erosion or adverse impacts to water quality. Thus, the project is consistent with the resource protection policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act. E. COMMUNITY CHARACTER/VISUAL QUALITY The proposed roadway improvement would not alter or distract from the existing views of coastal resources or change the character of the surrounding scenic corridor. Therefore, the Commission finds that the development, as conditioned, conforms to Section 30251 of the Coastal Act. F. LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM Portions ofthe subject site are located within the jurisdictions ofthe Cities ofCarlsbad's and Oceanside's Local Coastal Programs, while other areas of the proposed project are located in areas of original jurisdiction where the Commission still has jurisdiction. The Cities have requested that the Coastal Commission review the project proposal as a whole, and process the entire development as a consolidated coastal development permit. Under Coastal Act Section 30601.3, Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act is the legal standard of review for the entire project, and the certified LCP has been used as guidance. The proposed project has been found consistent with all applicable Chapter 3 policies of the Coastal Act. Therefore, the Commission finds that approval ofthe project will not prejudice the ability of the Cities of Carlsbad or Oceanside to continue implementation of their individual LCPs. G. CONSISTENCY WITH CEQA As conditioned, there are no feasible alternatives or feasible mitigation measures available which would substantially lessen any significant adverse effect which the activity may have on the environment. Therefore, the Commission finds that the proposed project, as conditioned to mitigate the identified impacts, is the least environmentally damaging feasible alternative and is consistent with the requirements of the Coastal Act to conform to CEQA. 14 6-12-087 (Cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside) APPENDIX A SUBSTANTIVE FILE DOCUMENTS 1.
