SUBJECT: PIP 06-09x2 - CARLSBAD RACEWAY LOTS 13-15
The City has completed a review of the application for a Planned Industrial Permit Extension to
allow for a three-year time extension for the development of seven (7) single-story.
office/warehouse buildings totaling 140,400 square feet in size, 507 surface parking spaces, site
landscaping, as well as all other necessary improvements for a 11.5-acre site generally located on
the north side of Lionshead Avenue, east of Melrose and Eagle Drive.
It is the Planning Director's determination that the project IS consistent with the City's Planned
Industrial Zone regulations (Chapter 21.34) and with all other applicable City ordinances and
policies. The Planning Director, therefore, APPROVES this request based on the following:
Findings:
1. The adopted findings for PIP 06-09 and PIP 06-09x1, which are contained in the
Planning Director's approval letters, dated June 20, 2007 and October 23, 2008,
respectively, apply to this extension and are incorporated herein by this reference.
2. That the Planning Director has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the
Developer contained in this letter, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are
imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the
extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by
the project.
Conditions:
Note: Unless otherwise specified herein, all conditions shall be satisfied prior to issuance of a
building permit or grading permit, whichever shall occur first
1. If any of the following conditions fail to occur; or if they are, by their terms, to be
implemented and maintained over time, if any of such conditions fail to be so
implemented and maintained according to their terms, the City shall have the right to
revoke or modify all approvals herein granted; record a notice of violation on the property
title; deny or further condition issuance of all future building permits; deny, revoke or
further condition all certificates of occupancy issued under the authority of approvals
herein granted; record a notice of violation on the property title; institute and prosecute
litigation to compel their compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their
violation. No vested rights are gained by Developer or a successor in interest by the
City's approval of this Planned Industrial Permit Extension.

2. All conditions of approval of Planned Industrial Permit PIP 06-09x1 as stated in the
Planning Director's approval letter, dated October 23, 2008, shall apply as
conditions of approval for PIP 06-09x2 and are incorporated herein by this
reference, except Planning Condition No. 3 of PIP 06-09x1 has been replaced with
Planning Condition No. 3 below and Engineering Condition Nos. 5, 6, and 7 have
been replaced with Engineering Condition Nos. 4-9 below. Planning Condition No.
4 of PIP 06-09x1 remains as a condition which needs to be fulfilled prior to the
issuance of building permits.
3. Planned Industrial Permit Extension, PIP 06-09x2, is retroactively granted for a
period of three (3) years from June 20, 2010 to June 20, 2013, and shall become
null and void if building permits for this project are not issued within this time
period. No additional time extensions will be granted.
4. Prior to the issuance of a grading permit, Developer shall submit to the City Engineer
receipt of a Notice of Intent from the State Water Resources Control Board.
5. Prior to the issuance of grading permit or building permit, whichever occurs first,
Developer shall submit for City approval a Tier 3 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
(TIER 3 SWPPP). The TIER 3 SWPPP shall comply with current requirements and
provisions established by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board and City
of Carlsbad. The TIER 3 SWPPP shall identify and incorporate measures to reduce
storm water pollutant runoff during construction of the project, to the maximum extent
practicable.
6. This project is subject to 'Priority Development Project' requirements. Developer shall
prepare and process a Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP), subject to City
Engineer approval, to demonstrate how this project meets new/current storm water
treatment requirements per the City's Standard Urban Storm Water Management Plan
(SUSMP), latest version. In addition to new treatment control BMP selection criteria in
the SUSMP, the Developer shall use low impact development (site design) approaches
to ensure that runoff from impervious areas (roofs, pavement, etc) are drained through
landscaped (pervious) areas prior to discharge. Developer shall pay all applicable
SWMP plan review and inspection fees per the City's latest fee schedule.
7. The Developer acknowledges that the upcoming hydromodification (runoff reduction)
requirements may impact how this project treats and/or retains storm runoff.
Hydromodification involves detailed site design and analysis to reduce the amount of
post-development run-off by mimicking the natural hydrologic function of the site,
preserving natural open-spaces and natural drainage channels, minimizing use of new
impervious surfaces, and promoting onsite infiltration and evaporation of run-off. During
final design, Developer shall demonstrate compliance with storm water requirements to
the satisfaction of the City Engineer.
8. The Developer is responsible to ensure that all final design plans (grading plans,
improvement plans, landscape plans, building plans, etc) incorporate all source control,
site design, treatment control BMP, applicable hydromodification measures, and Low
Impact Design (LID) facilities.
9. Prior to the next submittal of the grading plan application, DWG 453-3A, the applicant
must meet with City staff to determine if the revised grading plan meets the latest City
SUSMP requirements. Depending on how extensively the new water quality and
PIP 06-09x2 - CARLSBAD RACEWAY LOTS 13-15

hydromodification requirements impact the current project design, the developer may be
required to process a Consistency Determination to evaluate if the revised project is
consistent with the Planning Director approval. Significant changes may trigger
Amendments to be processed for the discretionary permits. Additional plan check fees
will be required to review the revised grading plan and associated documents. The
additional plan check fees will be determined by the project engineer upon review of the
resubmittal package.

Please take NOTICE that approval of your project includes the "imposition" of fees, dedications,
reservations, or other exactions hereafter collectively referred to for convenience as
"fees/exactions."
You have 90 days from date of final approval to protest imposition of these fees/exactions. If
you protest them, you must follow the protest procedure set forth in Government Code Section
