NOTICE OF DECISION

Del Mar, CA 92014
RE: CDP 2017-0076 {DEV2017-0244)-WHITE ADU
(°Cityof
Carlsbad
The city has completed a review of the application for a Minor Coastal Development Permit for the
development of an attached 630 square foot Accessory Dwelling Unit located at 4810 Kelly Drive (APN:
207-230-19-00).
It is the City Planner's determination that the project CDP 2017-0076 -WHITE ADU, is consistent with
the city's applicable Coastal Development Regulations (Chapters 21.201 -21.205) and with all other
applicable city ordinances and policies. The City Planner, therefore, APPROVES this request based upon
the following:
1. That the development is in conformity with the public access and public recreation policies of
Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act, in that no opportunities for coastal access are available from the
subject site, nor are public recreation areas required of the project because the project is not
located adjacent to the shore.
2. The proposed development will have no adverse effect on coastal resources, in that the Accessory
Dwelling Unit is located entirely within an existing single-family home. No expansion of the
existing home is proposed.
3. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and all
applicable policies in that the site is designated for residential uses in that the site is designated R-4
Residential which allows for residential development including a single-family home and an
Accessory Dwelling Unit. The development consists of converting 630 square feet of an existing
single-family home into an Accessory Dwelling Unit. Since the proposed Accessory Dwelling Unit
is located within an existing single-family home, it will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen
from public lands or the public right-of-way, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of the
coastal zone. No agricultural uses currently exist on the site, nor are there any sensitive resources
located on the property. Furthermore, the proposed Accessory Dwelling Unit is not located in an
area of known geologic instability or flood hazards.

4. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (Chapter
21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the city's Master Drainage Plan,
Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, Carlsbad BMP Design Manual and Jurisdictional Urban
Runoff Management Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban runoff, pollutants, and soil erosion.
No undevelopable steep slopes or native vegetation is located on the subject property and the
undeveloped site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion,
floods, or liquefaction.

working days before the date of this decision pursuant to Section 21.201.0S0(B) and (C) of the
Carlsbad Coastal Development Regulations.
6. That the City Planner has determined that the project is exempt from the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act {CEQA) per Section 15303 -New Construction or Conversion of
Small Structures of the State CEQA Guidelines and will not have any adverse significant impact on the
environment.
7. The City Planner has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer contained in this
