FOR SAID PROJECT ON A .48 ACRE PARCEL LOCATED

WHEREAS, on April 25, 1979, the Carlsbad Planning

City Council that Condominium Permit (CP-2) and Tentative
Subdivision Map (CT 79-2) be denied: and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, on
May 1, 1979, held a public hearing to consider the recommendations
of the Planning Commission and to receive all recommendations

(a) It fails to meet the design criteria required
by Section 21.47.010 of the Carlsbad Municipal
Code in the following respects:
The overall plan is not comprehensive and is unsatisfactory for a proper home ownership project in that there is no
interrelationship of the buildings, landscaping or yards; in fact, there are
no front yards for the units.
The design is a standard block apartment building in linear form, with poor relation-
ship to buildings, openspace, landscaping
and parking, which is so arranged as to
create an almost complete lack of any private
area.
The common areas and recreational facilities
are not readily accessible to all occupants and are poorly related to the limited amount
of common openspace provided. In particular,
the common area is a converted apartment unit and the only other common area is located to the rear where it is not readily available.
(b) It was designed and built as a small apartment
building, which looks like an apartment, and
the conversion of that structure to a condominium
is contrary to the purposes and intent of
Chapter 21.47.
3. That the City Council hereby denies approval of
Condominium Permit (CP-2) based upon the findings set out above.
4. That the City Council hereby denies approval of
Tentative Subdivision Map (CT 79-2) because a tentative subdivision
map for a condominum project may only be approved if all required
zoning approvals have been secured and in this case the
condominium permit required to allow the conversion of this
existing apartment structure to a condominium has not been
approved. Since the applicant has not secured the necessary
zoning approvals, the tentative subdivision map must be denied. ///
