APN: 167-501-67 Dear Mr. Worthing: The Planning Director has completed a review of your application for an Administrative Amendment to a Planned Unit Development Permit to allow for a 421 square foot one-story addition at 3646 Cheshire Avenue. After careful consideration of this request including written and verbal comments and objections from surrounding property owners, if any, the Planning Director has determined that the findings required for granting an Administrative Permit for the proposed addition can be made and, therefore, APPROVES this request based on the following findings and conditions: Findings 1. That the proposed addition complies with the standard setback requirements of the Trails of Calavera Hills Homeowner's Association and Planned Development Ordinance with at least a 5 foot side yard setback and a 20 foot front yard setback. 2. A minimum 15' x 15' rear yard area is maintained. 3. The lot coverage does not exceed 50% of the net lot square footage. 4. The proposed addition is architecturally compatible with the existing residence. 5. That the owner has received approval for the addition from the Architectural Committee and Board of Directors for the Trails of Calavera Hills Homeowner's Association. 6. That the Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15301 of the state CEQA Guidelines. In making this determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project. 1635 Faraday Avenue • Carlsbad, CA 92008-7314 • (760) 602-4600 • FAX (760) 602-8559 • www.ci.carlsbad.ca.us PUD 00-57(B) - ORTEGA ADDITION May 17, 2005 Page 2 7.
