I. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Design Review Board ADOPT Resolution No. 036, recommending APPROVAL of RP 84-4, based on the findings and subject to the conditions contained therein. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting approval of a Redevelopment Permit to convert an existing residence to a restaurant on the west side of Harding Street between Elm Avenue and Oak Avenue. The subject property is .16 acres in size and rears on an alley. Access to the site would be derived both from Harding Street and the alley. There are currently two structures on the lot. The building to the rear would be removed. III. ANALYSIS Planning Issues 1) Is the project consistent with the goals and objectives of the Village Design Manual? 2) Does the project conform with the development standards of the Zoning Ordinance? Discussion The applicant is requesting approval of a Redevelopment Pemit to convert an existing 690 square foot residence into a family restaurant. The project would include new facade treatment, a small building addition, driveway and alley improvements, landscaping and construction of a parking lot. The project site is within Subarea 7 of the Village Redevelopment Area. The goal for Subarea 7 is to permit and encourage mixed uses among residential and service commercial/office uses. Staff believes that the proposed project would be consistent with these goals. Further, bonafide restaurants are specifically encouraged within the subarea. 6) The proposed project would conform to all development requirements of the underlying R-P (Residential-Professional) Zone. All required setbacks would be met, providing compatibility of appearance with residential uses. A parking lot, containing eight spaces, would be constructed to the rear of the restaurant. The project would be one space short of satisfying the required ratio of one space per 100 square feet of gross floor area. Staff does not anticipate any serious parking shortage or impacts to surrounding land uses. The project site adjoins the parking lot for the Harding Street Community Center. Overall, staff believes that the project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Village Design Manual and conforms to the development standards of the underlying R-P Zone. IV. ARCHITECTURE/DESIGN The proposed conversion would include facade treatment to the existing structure, landscaping and construction of a parking lot. French doors and stucco finish would be added to the building. A 30 inch high stucco wall would be constructed in the front yard. An earth tone color scheme is planned, featuring light beige stucco with light brown trim. V. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Land Use Planning Manager has determined that this project is categorically exempt from Environmental Review per Section 19.04.070 of the Carlsbad Environmental Ordinance and, therefore, issued a Notice of Exemption on May 7, 1984.
