SUBJECT: STAFF RECOMMENDATION ON CITY OF CARLSBAD LCP
SEGMENT MAJOR AMENDMENT NO. 3-99B (For Public Hearing
and Possible Commission Action at the Meeting of January 11-14,2000)
SYNOPSIS
SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT REOUEST
On October 6, 1999, the City of Carlsbad’s proposed Local Coastal Program Amendment
(LCPA) #3-99 was received in the San Diego District office. The amendment package
contains five separate LCPAs. At the November 1999 meeting a time extension was
granted by the Commission at the request of Commission staff due to agenda workload.
The Commission approved an amendment to the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan
permitting a museum open to the public with incidental retail sales (LCPA 3-99A) at its
December 1999 hearing. With the exception of the appellate procedures amendment,
which will be likely heard at the February 1999 meeting, the remaining three
amendments are the subject of this report.
Part 1 is the “Incidental Outdoor Dining Areas” amendment which modifies Chapter 21
of the Municipal Code and would apply to all of the City’s LCP segments except the
Village Redevelopment Area to allow “incidental outdoor dining areas” associated with
restaurants on private property. The amendment allows small accessory outdoor dining
areas in association with already allowed restaurants and will exclude such areas from
parking requirements.
Parts 2 and 3 of the amendment request revise the certified LCP Mello 11 segment
Implementation Plan. Part 2 (Carnation) rezones a 10-acre parcel from Limited Control
(L-C) to One-Family Residential (R-1-7,500-Q). Part 3 (Hadley) rezones a 14.7-acre
parcel from Limited Control (L-C) to One-Family Residential (R- 1-7,500-4).
SUMMARY OF STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Carlsbad EPA #3-99B
Page 2
Staff is recommending approval of the proposed Incidental Outdoor Dining Areas
amendment as submitted. Staff is recommending denial of the Carnation and Hadley
Rezones as submitted and approval if modified as suggested in this report. The proposed
rezones are inconsistent with the certified Mello I1 LUP in that the proposed R-1-7500
zone could allow a greater density on the sites than the certified Residential Low Medium
(RLM 0-4 du/ac) land use designation would allow. A suggested modification is attached
which requires that language be inserted into the “Q’ Qualified Development Overlay
Zone which has been certified as part of the LCP Implementation Plan. The language
shall clarify that residential densities shall be permitted only in conformance with the
underlying LCP land use designation for the property.
The aDproDriate resolutions and motions begin on page 3. The Suggested Modifications
begin on page - 5. The findings - for approval of the Imdementation Plan Amendments
bepin on page 6.
BACKGROUND
The City’s certified LCP contains six geographic segments as follows: Agua Hedionda,
Mello I, Mello 11, West Batiquitos LagoodSammis Properties, East Batiquitos
LagoodHunt Properties and Village Redevelopment. Pursuant to Sections 30170(f) and
30171 of the Public Resources Code, the Coastal Commission prepared and approved
two portions of the LCP, the Mello I and 11 segments in 1980 and 1981, respectively.
The West Batiquitos Lagood Samrnis Properties segment was certified in 1985. The
East Batiquitos LagoodHunt Properties segment was certified in 1988. The Village
Redevelopment Area LCP was certified in 1988; the City has been issuing coastal
development permits there since that time. On October 21, 1997, the City assumed
permit jurisdiction and has been issuing coastal development permits for all of its
segments except Agua Hedionda. The Agua Hedionda Lagoon LCP segment remains as
a deferred certification area until an implementation plan is certified. The subject
amendment request affects the Mello II segment of the LCP.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Further information on the submittal may be obtained from Bill Ponder at the San Diego
Area Office of the Coastal Commission at 3 11 1 Camino Del Rio North, Suite 200,
San Diego, CA 92108, (619) 521-8036.

PART IV. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD LCP
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AMENDMENT #3-99B, AS
SUBMITTED (PART 1 - INCIDENTAL OUTDOOR DINING
AREAS).
A. AMENDMENT DESCRIPTION
The proposed LCP amendment would allow, with some exceptions, small outdoor dining
areas of limited size to be provided without requiring parking subject to an Incidental
Outdoor Dining Areas (IODA) permit. Outdoor dining areas associated with restaurants,
deli’s and other eating establishments can be provided under current regulations. Such
areas are treated like indoor seating areas and the areas are included in calculating the
total floor area of the eating establishment, which in turn, is used to calculate the number
of parking spaces required for the business. The proposed amendment would provide an
incentive to businesses to include small outdoor dining areas by excluding those areas (up
to 400 sq.ft. in size) from the parking requirement calculation.
The amendment modifies the City’s zoning ordinance citywide and is applicable outside
of the Redevelopment Area and outside of the CommerciaWisitor-Serving Overlay
Zone. Consequently, it will involve the Mello I, Mello 11, Agua Hedionda, East
BatiquitoskIunt and West Batiquitosl Sammis segments of the Carlsbad LCP. The
purpose of the amendment is to provide an incentive for small outdoor dining areas
associated with restaurants and other eating establishments.
The Coastal Commission approved the identical amendment in July 1998 with a
suggested modification. The modification prohibited IODAs on sites west of the railway
line which contain existing restaurants that do not meet required parking standards. With
respect to parking associated with coastal access, the railway line generally separates the
beach impact zone from the non-critical portion of the City’s parking reservoir. The
Commission found that those sites on either side of the railway line that complied with
parking requirements for their indoor dining areas could provide IODAs. However, those
sites that are located west of the railway line and are not providing adequate parking at
code requirements for their indoor dining areas are not allowed to get an IODA pennit
and the attendant parking waiver. This provision results from the Commission’s concern
over the lack of public parking generally west of the railway line. The Commission did
not want to exacerbate any existing inadequate parking situations by allowing such
businesses to expand further.
Due to a “sunset clause” in the original ordinance, the approved amendment
automatically repealed in October 1998 before the suggested modifications could be
adopted by the City Council. Consequently, the City has prepared essentially the same
ordinance except that it includes the Commission’s suggested modifications, precludes an
IODA in the CommercialNisitor-Serving Overlay Zone and does not include a sunset
clause.

B. FINDINGS FOR APPROVALPART 1 - INCIDENTAL OUTDOOR
DINING AREAS
a) Purpose and Intent of the Ordinance. The purpose and intent of the Incidental
Outdoor Dining Areas amendment is to allow small accessory outdoor dining areas on
private property in association with already allowed restaurants with indoor seating, and
to exclude such areas from parking requirements.
b) Maior Provisions of the Ordinance. The Incidental Outdoor Dining Areas
amendment modifies Chapter 21 of the Municipal Code to allow incidental outdoor
dining areas associated with restaurants on private property as follows:
-Adds a new definition to the municipal code (Section 21.04.188.1) which
specifies, among other things, that “incidental outdoor dining areas” shall be
limited to: a maximum of 20% of the number of indoor seats or a maximum of
twenty (20) seats, whichever is more restrictive; a maximum of six (6) tables; and
a maximum of 400 sq.ft. in area; outdoor seating areas are allowed provided they
comply with all requirements, including providing required parking at the
appropriate restaurant parking ratio.
The amendment regulates the location and design of IODAs, requiring an
administrative permit for such areas
The amendment excludes IODAs from parking requirement calculations provided
no public access/parking impacts would occur in nearshore areas.
c) Adequacy of Ordinance to Implement the Certified LUP. The standard of
review for LCP implementation submittals or amendments are their consistency
with and ability to carry out the provisions of the certified Land Use Plan (LUP).
In the case of the subject LCP amendment, the City’s Municipal Code serves as
the Implementation Program for the Carlsbad LCP. In its 1998 review of this
amendment, the Commission was concerned about the proposed parking
exemption in the nearshore areas (Le., areas located west of the railroad right-of-
way near the ocean), of the City outside of the Village Redevelopment Area,
where parking demand is high but parking supplies may be low; or the southern
areas of the City where there are substantial undeveloped areas which are
expected to experience growth in the near future. The railroad right-of-way runs
northlsouth through the City, near and paralleling the ocean. There are a number
of commercially-designated sites west of the railroad right-of-way that the
ordinance would apply to near Palomar Airport Road and Poinsettia Lane,
including sites within the Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan Area and the
Poinsettia Shores Specific Plan Area. These specific plans cover approximately
190 acres of land north of Batiquitos Lagoon and contain lands approved by the
Commission for visitor commercial uses, some of which are located west of the
railroad right-of-way.
Carlsbad LCPA #3-99B
Page 8
Some of the above mentioned areas may be considered “beach impact areas”
where parking competition is expected to be greatest between residents,
commercial patrons and beach visitors. These areas are directly across from
South Carlsbad State Beach. South Carlsbad State Beach is a unit of the ‘State
Department of Parks and Recreation. The campground is located westerly of
Carlsbad Blvd., north of Ponto State Beach. In addition to seven beach access
stairways, the park is developed with 226 campsites, 10 comfort stations, and a
campfire center and concession stand. Because it provides both day use and
overnight use, it is considered a major recreational facility for coastal visitors.
Policy 7-9 of the Mello 11 LUP entitled “Carlsbad State Beach: Parking” states:
Parking facilities are entirely inadequate in the vicinity of South Carlsbad
State Beach. To remedy this problem, the 20-acre site located between
Carlsbad Boulevard and the railroad junction of Palomar Airport Road
shall be developed for parking facilities of approximately 1,500 spaces.
When this facility becomes heavily utilized, jitney service should be
initiated between the parking area and designated points along Carlsbad
Boulevard.
Given the above, the Commission was concerned about allowing this revision on
properties located west of the railroad right-of-way outside of the Village
Redevelopment Area. This is important because limited public parking and on-
street parking is available in the nearshore area along and west of Carlsbad
Boulevard for beach visitors. Outdoor dining areas, whether large or “incidental”
are a very attractive dining option in Southern California. Given the suitable
weather conditions and use of heaters and shade covers, these outdoor areas draw
business and are generally preferred by many customers. Should a restaurant be
successful already, such an addition will only serve to expand capacity and fuller
operation. This could exacerbate potential parking conflicts in the nearshore areas
under certain conditions.
One particular concern would be the adequacy of the existing restaurant’s parking
facilities. If an existing establishment fails to provide its full parking
complement, it should not be allowed to add an “incidental dining” area and
exacerbate its parking deficiency, especially in nearshore areas. However, the
submitted ordinance makes it clear that existing parking cannot be eliminated to
provide the incidental dining area, and specifies that restaurants without adequate
parking cannot be allowed a further parking exemption west of the railway right
of way. Thus, the availability of public parking would not be adversely affected if
an incidental outdoor dining area was allowed near the beach and the existing
restaurant failed to provide its required parking complement. For that reason, the
amendment can be approved as submitted.

LCP IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AMENDMENT #3-99B (PART 2 -
CARNATION REZONE AND PART 3 - HADLEY REZONE), AS
SUBMITTED
A. AMENDMENT DESCRIPTIONS/ REZONES
The amendment changes the Mello II LCP implementation plan by rezoning a 10-acre
parcel (Carnation) and a 14.7-acre parcel (Hadley) from Limited Control (L-C) to One-
Family Residential (R-1-7,500-Q). The amendments are associated with specific project
proposals currently under review by the City.
On the Carnation property, the proposal is to subdivide the site into 32 single-family lots.
The project site is on the west side of Black Rail Road and north of Aviara Parkway.
The Carnation property is bordered to the north and east by agricultural land, to the west
by Planning Area (PA) 22 of Aviara Phase III and to the south by open space. The
developable portion of the project site has been subject to previous agricultural
operations. The site has a gentle slope from east to west and has until recently been used
for growing flowers. Currently there are several green houses on site.
On the Hadley property, the proposal is to subdivide the site into 38 single-family lots
and one open space lot. The project site is located on the east side of Black Rail Road
and south of Poinsettia Lane (Hadley). The Hadley property is bordered to the north by
vacant agricultural land and native habitat, to the east by open space within Planning
Area (PA) 22 of Aviara Phase 111, to the south by a graded portion of Docena Road
(access road to PA 22) and Black Rail Road to the east.
The western quarter of the Hadley site slopes gently westward and the remainder of the
site slopes gently eastward to the top of a descending natural slope. The elevation across
the site is approximately 110 feet, with the natural slope varying up to 50 feet in height.
The flatter portions of the site have been used for agriculture. A 5.45-acre open space lot
containing constrained lands and sensitive habitat is proposed on the eastern portion of
the site. It contains 4 acres of southern maritime chaparral and 0.2 acres of coast live oak
riparian forest. This area is to be designated Open Space and would be maintained by a
future homeowner’s association land use plan.
The subject sites are located within the non-appealable area of the City’s coastal
development permit jurisdiction. The sites are designated as Residential Low Medium
(RLM, 014 du/ac) in the Mello 11 LCP.
The projects comply with the requirements of the certified Coastal Resource Protection
Overlay Zone as slopes over 25% grade containing coastal sage scrub and chaparral are
being preserved. The Carnation project proposes .013 acres of impact to slopes greater
than 25% but this area does not contain significant species. Approximately 0.32 acres of
impact to southern maritime chaparral is proposed with the Hadley proposal; however,
the impact is proposed on non-steep slopes and this impact has been accepted by the
resource agencies during subdivision review at the City.
Carlsbad LCPA ~3-99B
Page 10
The projects comply with the requirements of the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone, as
they have been required to pay agricultural conversion mitigation fees to develop the
properties with other than agricultural uses. This is consistent with the agricultural
provisions within the certified Mello II LCP land use plan.
Regarding sewer and water services, such connections are proposed to the Carnation and
Hadley sites through extensions of existing lines that have been previously approved in
the City's review of its Zone 20 Specific Plan. This plan reviewed environmental
impacts associated with infrastructure improvements. Impacts to sensitive vegetation
were identified with provision of sewer service on the west side of the specific plan area
and mitigation was approved. However, no impacts to sensitive vegetation were
identified with provision of such services on the Hadley and Carnation sites either during
review of the specific plan or during individual project review. Additionally, no increase
in capacity of these services is proposed as existing lines have been sized to
accommodate planned growth in the Zone 20 area
a) Purpose and Intent of the Ordinance. The purpose and intent of the proposed
LCP amendment is to apply a residential implementing zone to the subject properties
which are both designated RLM in the certified LCP land use plan allowing 0 to 4
dwelling units per acre (dua). The R-1-7500-Q zone (One-Family Residential Zone) is to
allow for single family detached homes and associated structures. The Limited Control
(L-C ) zone is currently applied to the sites; it is a holding zone that only allows
agricultural uses until future planning is done.
b) Maior Provisions of the Ordinance. The amendment provides for the change of
zoning of the identified parcel from L-C to R- 1. The R- 1 zone allows single family
detached homes and associated structures, sets a 35 foot height limit, and establishes
development standards for setbacks, placement of building and minimum lot area. The
minimum required area of a lot in this R-1 zone is 7,500 sq.ft. Additional development
standards for this zone include provisions for the type of garage required (Le. two-car)
and that each residence has a permanent foundation. Other requirements pertain to the
composition of exterior siding of residences, specifications regarding roof pitches and
minimum width of residences.
A Q designator has also been applied to the proposed residential zone by the City. The
purpose of the "Q" Qualified Development Overlay Zone in the certified LCP is to
"supplement the underlying zoning by providing additional regulations for development
within designated areas to: [in part] (1) Require that property development criteria are
used to insure compliance with the general plan and any applicable specific plans; (2)
Provide that development will be compatible with surrounding developments, both
existing and proposed; (3) Insure that development occurs with due regard to
environmental factors [...I The overlay zone therefore appears to be a suitable means to
provide additional regulations for development to ensure that future development occurs
consistent with a variety of concerns or environmental factors. Thus, this overlay is a
means to assure the policies of the LCP will be applied and enforced.
c) Adequacv of Ordinance to Implement the Certified LUP. The standard of
h
Carlsbad LCPA ~-99B
Page 11
review for LCP implementation submittals or amendments is their consistency with and
ability to carry out the provisions of the certified Land Use Plan (LUP). In the case of the
subject LCP amendment, the City's Municipal Code serves as the Implementation Plan
for the Mello 11 segment of the LCP. The subject properties are designated with the
Residential Low Medium (RLM) land use designation in the certified LUP which permits
up to 4 ddac. Although the City found the proposed R-1 zone consistent with the RLM
designation, the R-1 zoning could allow up to 5.8 du/ac based on the minimum lot size
(43,560 sq.ft. divided by 7,500 sq.ft. = 5.8). Thus, the proposed R-1 zone could permit
more dwelling units than the land use designation would allow which is inconsistent with
the certified LUP. Increased residential density could result in adverse impact areawide
to coastal resources by creating the need for more roads and infrastructure through
sensitive areas &e., dual criteria slopes, wetland and riparian resources).
In LCPA 2-96A and LCPA 1-99, the Commission addressed the above issue on two sites
(Ocean Bluff and Lohf) within the Zone 20 area in Carlsbad. The Commission found that
the Qualified Development Overlay Zone should be applied to the Ocean Bluff property
and further clarified on the Lohf property. The Q designator ensures that the building
locations and architectural styles are reviewed through a Site Development Plan
discretionary approval process prior to issuing building permits. On the Ocean Bluff site,
the Commission approved a suggested modification that applied the "Q" designator to the
site to ensure that the property would be developed with no more than 4 ddac which was
consistent with the certified RLM land use designation. As modified, the Commission
found the proposed zone change was consistent with the certified LUP as application of
the "Q" designator was one mechanism to address the density limit concerns; however,
other options or alternatives would certainly be considered. On the Lohf site the City's
amendment was silent with respect to the proposed Q designator limiting the density on
the property so that it would not be developed with more than 4 dwelling units per acre.
In its approval the Commission clarified with a suggested modification that the Q
designator applied to the site should indicate that the property will be developed with no
more than 4 dwelling units per acre.
Subsequent to those conditional approvals, the City has indicated that resolving the density issue
in this way is unacceptable. The City attorney has indicated that it is inappropriate to attach the
above provision regarding density to the Q designator. The City maintains there is a reoccurring
misunderstanding of how the City's General Plan and zoning work in conjunction with the
Subdivision Map Act and the City's subdivision ordinance. The City maintains it cannot approve
a subdivision that is inconsistent with its General Plan regardless of what the zoning allows (i.e., it
cannot approve a subdivision for more units than the top end of the General Plan density range).
(While the General Plan does allow one exception for small in-fill development in the old part of
Carlsbad where all infrastructure including all streets and utilities are in place, the sites that are the
subject of this amendment are not in an infill area and could therefore not be granted additional
density above the land use designation).
In any event, the City has submitted the subject LCP amendment without any means to assure the
density permitted by the LCP land use plan will not be exceeded through the approval of
residential development subject to the R-1-7500 zone. Additionally, there is no language that
assures the base density utilized to calculate any potential affordable housing density bonuses will
Carlsbad LCPA ~3-99B
Page 12
not exceed the maximum density permitted in the LUP. Therefore, the Commission finds the
proposed ordinance must be denied, as submitted, as it is inadequate to carry out the provisions of
the certified LCP land use plan.
PART VI. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD MELLO I1
LCP IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AMENDMENT #3-99B (PART 2-
CARNATION REZONE AND PART 3 - HADLEY REZONE), IF MODIFIED
The standard of review for LCP implementation submittals or amendments is their
consistency with and ability to carry out the provisions of the certified Land Use Plan
(LUP). Although the City found the proposed R-1 zone consistent with the certified
RLM designation, the R-1 zoning could allow up to 5.8 du/ac based on the minimum lot
size (43,560 sq.ft. divided by 7,500 sq.ft. =5.8). Thus, the proposed R-1 zone could
permit more dwelIing units than the land use designation would allow which is
inconsistent with the certified LUP. Increased residential density could result in adverse
impacts areawide to coastal resources by creating the need for more roads and
infrastructure through sensitive areas (Le., dual criteria slopes, wetland and riparian
resources).
As noted above, the Commission rejected the proposed R-1-7500 zoning based on its
potential to allow a greater intensity of development than the certified Mello II LUP
would allow. Because the City has indicated the means to address this problem, which
the Commission has used in the past, is unacceptable, the Commission is suggesting
alternative code language that would address the density issue. The suggested
modification would be inserted within the “Q’ Qualified Development Overlay Zone
because, by definition, it’s purpose is to “supplement the underlying zoning by providing
additional regulations for development within designated areas”.
The Commission’s suggested modification would ensure that residential densities would
not exceed the maximum density permitted by the underlying LCP land use plan
designation. Additionally, the language acknowledges that any proposed residential
subdivision is also subject to the resource protection policies in the certified LCP which
may limit development on environmentally sensitive areas such that the maximum
permitted density may not be achievable.
Regarding application of the affordable housing provisions contained in the certified
LCP, the suggested modification clarifies that the base density utilized in calculating the
density bonus shall not exceed the maximum density permitted by the underlying land
use plan designation. The affordable housing provisions contained in the certified LCP
require that any housing development which incorporates an affordable housing density
bonus or other incentives shall be consistent with all the certified LCP provisions, with
the exception of base density. The suggested modification insures that base density will
not be determined by the number of units permitted by the R-1-7500 zone, but will be
determined by the maximum density permitted in the certified LCP land use plan.
With the inclusion of the suggested modification, the Commission can find the
-
Carlsbad LCPA i-99B
Page 13
amendment consistent with the density designations certified in the Mello 11 LCP land
use plan. Thus, as modified, the Commission finds that the subject amendment to the
implementation plan is consistent with and adequate to carry out the policies of the
certified LUP.
PART VII. CONSISTENCY WITH THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENT
QUALITY ACT (CEOA)
Section 21080.5 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) exempts local
government from the requirement of preparing an environmental impact report (EIR) in
connection with its local coastal program. Instead, the CEQA responsibilities are
assigned to the Coastal Commission and the Commission’s LCP review and approval
program has been found by the Resources Agency to be functionally equivalent to the
EIR process. Thus, under CEQA Section 21080.5, the Commission is relieved of the
responsibility to prepare an EIR for each LCP.
Nevertheless, the Commission is required in a LCP submittal or, as in this case, a LCP
amendment submittal, to find that the LCP, or LCP, as amended, conforms to CEQA
provisions. As modified, the proposed Carnation and Hadley rezones will not result in an
intensity of land use incompatible with the surrounding development or have adverse
impacts on coastal resources or density. Regarding the Incidental Outdoor Dining Areas
amendment, the Commission finds approval of the amendment will not adversely affect
the parking reservoir in nearshore beach areas. Therefore, the Commission finds that
approval of the LCP amendments will not result in any significant adverse environmental
impacts.
In addition, individual projects to which the new LCP zone would apply will require a
coastal development permit, which would require review for compliance with
development standards which address, in part, steep slope encroachment, preservation of
native habitat (coastal sage scrub, etc.), visual resource protection, and parking and traffic
circulation. Any specific impacts associated with individual development projects would
