The project site is an approximately 9,583-square-foot lot (0.22 acre), and is currently undeveloped. In response to your application, the Planning Division has prepared this comment letter. Please note that the purpose of a preliminary review is to provide you with direction and comments on the overall concept of your project. This preliminary review does not represent an in-depth analysis of your project. It is intended to give you feedback on critical issues based upon the information provided in your submittal. This review is based upon the plans, policies, and standards in effect as ofthe date of this review.

Zoning: One-Family Residential (R-1) with the Qualified Development Overlay (Q). c. The property is in the Coastal Zone. The Coastal land use designation and zone are the same as the general plan and zoning above. d. Specific Plan Zone 20. 2. The project requires the following permits: a.

The undeveloped lot was created by the Rhodes Minor Subdivision, MS 08-02/CDP 08-06, identified as "Parcel 2". Recorded on the parcel is a view easement granted to Parcel 4 of Parcel Map 19411 for maintaining views recorded on September 18, 2007. This recorded easement prohibits any development within 15 feet along the side property line. The architectural plans submitted with the Preliminary Review shows the house is outside the 15-foot view easement and, therefore, in compliance with the easement. 5. The project is required to satisfy Condition 18 of MS 08-02/CDP 08-06: The panhandle lot shall provide three non-tandem parking spaces with an approach not less than twenty-four feet in length with proper turnaround space to permit complete turnaround for forward access to the street. The parking and access arrangement will be designed to the satisfaction of the city engineer. 6. The project site is located within the McClellan-Palomar Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP), more specifically the Airport Overflight Notification Area. ALUCP Section 2.2.29 -Overflight Notification is designed to ensure that prospective buyers near an airport, particularly residential properties, are informed about the airport's potential impact on the property. This notification does not restrict the height of structures, it simply discloses the existing conditions that may affect the property. The airport may subject the property to some of the annoyances or inconveniences associated with proximity to airport operations (for example: noise, vibration, or odors). ALUCP Section 3.6.3 requires an overflight notification to be recorded on the property for .new residential development, and a condition of approval will be added accordingly. 7. Indicate the interior garage dimensions on the architectural plans. Pursuant to CMC Section 21.44.080 Table A, minimum interior dimension for a single-family home is a two-car garage at 20 feet X-20 feet. 8. The following design criteria should be incorporated in the design of any proposed project with the Zone 20 Specific Plan: (a) A variety of the following: i. Roof and wall materials and colors ii. Building architectural accent features iii. Building street setbacks iv. Exterior accent colors v. Building facades within each floor plan (b) Window and door enhancement (c) Enhanced fenestration (d) Individualized entry treatments (e) Articulated building forms i. Roof planes ii. Wallplanes iii. Inset windows/doors (f) A variety of: i. Garage facades, design and orientation ii. One and two-story structures iii. One and two-story exterior elements within single structures (g) Curvilinear street design for streets in excess of 750 feet in length (h) Chimney and chimney caps should be in scale with unit (i) Multiple buildir1g elevation treatments including roof, window, siding, trim accent, garage door and entry types PRE 2018-0012 {DEV 2018-0079) -RAUM HOUSE June 12, 2018 Page 3 All necessary application forms, submittal requirements, and fee information are available at the Planning counter located in the Faraday Building at 1635 Faraday Avenue or online at http://www.carlsbadca.gov/services/depts/planning/default.asp.

Please review 911 information carefully before submitting. I • Land Development Engineering: Land Development Engineering Division staff has completed a preliminary review of the above-referenced project. Prior to formal application submittal the following items must be adequately resolved/addressed: 1. This project will require a grading plan. The rough grading plan for this lot and as-built were never completed and the grading permit has expired. On the discretionary submittal, provide a preliminary grading plan. 2. On the discretionary submittal, provide a preliminary title report dated within six months of the application date. Show and label on the plans, all easements listed in the title report. 3. On the discretionary submittal, provide a storm water standard questionnaire, E-34 form. It appears this project is a "Standard" project. If so, provide a completed Standard Project Requirement Checklist, Form E-36 available on the city's website. 4. Show and label all Low Impact Development (LID) features such as but limited to roof downspouts and disconnect, impervious area dispersion, storm drain stenciling or signage. 5. On the discretionary submittal, provide two copies of a preliminary geotechnical report. The report must include recommendations based on the review of the preliminary grading plan. 6. Show and label the existing and proposed contours on the site plan. It is unclear what the existing grades are and what has been graded but never as-built. 7. Show and label, the existing or proposed water service connection and meter to service the lot on the site plan and preliminary grading plan. 8. Show and label the existing or proposed sewer service connection and cleanout on the site plan and preliminary grading plan. 9. Based on ~he proposed drainage facilities and drainage arrows, it is unclear how runoff will be directed to the street. The proposed gravel drains end at the panhandle portion of the lot and does not appear to be able to flow down the panhandle to the street. 10. Show and label the existing retaining wall on Westerly property line on the preliminary grading plan. 11. Show on the site plan and preliminary grading plan, the Assessor's Parcel Numbers and/or short legal description of the adjacent properties. 12. Show and label on the site plan and preliminary grading plan, the existing and proposed frontage improvements for Triton Street including but not limited to sidewalk, curb, gutter, and parkway. PRE 2018-0012 (DEV 2018-0079} -RAUM HOUSE June 12, 2018 Page 4 13. Based on the rough grading plan (not as-built) and the grading plan for the adjacent lot to the north, the top of slope is at the property line and the toe of slope will be within the proposed building footprint. Due to the height of the adjacent lot's pad it appears a retaining wall will be needed along the northerly property line to achieve the desired building footprint. 14. The minimum slope for drainage away from the building is 2% for hardscape and 5% for landscape within 10-feet per the California 2016 Building Code Section 1804.4. Anything less than the minimum will require geotechnical recommendation. 15. Address the red line comments on the plan. 1. NFPA 13D fire sprinklers required, as stated on plan by applicant.
