APPLICANT: PACIFIC RIM COUNTRY CLUB AND RESORT CASE NO: MP-177 ~ ~ ~ ~~~~~~- WHEREAS, a verified application for certain property, to wit: 1 Portions of Sections 22, 26, 27, 28, 33, 34, and 35 in Township 12 South, Range 4 West, San Bernardino Meridian in the City of Carlsbad, County of San Diego, State of California, has been filed with the City of Carlsbad, and referred to the Planning Commission; and WHEREAS, said verified application constitutes a request provided by Title 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did, on the 4th day of November, 1987, hold a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law, to consider said request: and WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of all persons desiring to be heard, said Commission considered all factors relating to the Master Plan: and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission as follows: A) That the above recitations are true and correct. B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission recommends APPROVAL of PIP-177, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: I 1) The proposed master plan is consistent with the General Plan with the P-C zone and with the LCP for this area as’amended for reasons stated in the staff report.

The proposed master plan will not adversely impact existing or future development in the area for the reasons stated in the staff report. The uses proposed within the master plan area will be internally compatible as they have been planned based on topography, existing and proposed surrounding land usesI traffic circulation and environmental constraints. The project is consistent with all City public facility policies and ordinances since: a) The applicant has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an appropriate condition to pay a public facilities fee. Performance of that contract and payment of the fee will enable this body to find that public facilities will be available concurrent with need as required by the General Plan. b) The developer will complete the conditions and mitigation measures established in the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 19 which will ensure facilities and services are adequate to maintain the public safety and we1 f are. The area surrounding this development is or can be planned and zoned in coordination and substantial compatibility with said development. The development permitted by this master plan will not adversely impact the existing Batiquitos Lagoon and associated habitats located on the subject property because the applicant will be dedicating the lagoon as open space. An EIR was prepared for this project and has been recommended for certification by the Planning Commission. The EIR (EIR 83-2(A)) identified a number of potentially significant impacts created by this project and possible mitigation measures to reduce these impacts to a level of insignificance. These mitigation measures have been incorporated into the zoning for the property (MP-177) and in some cases the project has been revised to reduce all impacts to a level of insignificance, with the possibility of two exceptions, traffic and air quality. The project has been mitigated to the extent possible with regrad to air quality and circulation by the conditions requiring improvements to public facilities. Despite these conditions, impacts will still exist. With regard to these items, the Planning Commission finds there are overriding considerations which are as follows: 1) Traffic - With the implementation of the City's Growth Management Program, residential dwelling units over the Master Plan Area will be reduced from 4300 du's to 2836 RES0 NO. 2594 2. e e 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 7.0: 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 I. 5 I. 6 I. 7 3.8 1.9 20 21 i! 2 23 24 25 26 27 28 du's, as will Citywide residential densities be reduced overall. With this reduction in project and Citywide densities, and with the implementation of traffic mitigation measures identified within the Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan, no project related unmitigable traffic impacts are anticipated; 2) Air Quality - The reduction in project residential densities associated with the City's Growth Management Program, would bring the project's air quality figures more in line with the Series VI population growth forecasts, which were based on the existing General Plan. The additional Citywide reduction in residential densities will also reduce project related air quality impacts. Since air quality is a regional problem which will exist with or without this project, effective long term mitigation can only be accomplished on a regional basis. The specific findings for the Planning Commission on each identified impact are attached as Exhibit "E" dated November 4, 1987 and incorporated herein by reference. 9) This project is consistent with the City's Growth Management Ordinance as it has been conditioned to comply with any requirements approved as part of the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 19. 10) With regard to the park dedication requirement for Master Plan 177, current City policy is to require adequate park dedication up front. The reason for this is that an incremental dedication with each individual subdivision makes it impossible for the City to provide for the development of an adequate community park to serve the entire planned community until long after a substantial number of people have already been living in the project without any park services. That violates growth management. To meet community needs, it is necessary to acquire a significant amount of park land at once so it can be developed and so that the necessary park facilities can be provided in a timely way. I Conditions: 1 )' Approval is granted for PIP-177, attached as Exhibit "C", dated November 4, 1987, incorporated by reference and on file in the Planning Department. Development shall occur substantially as shown unless otherwise noted in these conditions. 2) This project is also approved under the express condition that the applicant pay the public facilities fee adopted by the City Council on July 28, 1987 and any development fees established by the City Council pursuant to Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code or other ordinance adopted to implement a growth management system or facilities and PC RES0 NO. 2594 3. . 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 a 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 I 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 improvement plan and to fulfill the subdivider's agreement to pay the public facilities fee dated October 16, 1987 and the agreement to pay the growth management fee dated August 27, 1986, copies of which is on file with the City Clerk and is incorporated by this reference. If the fees are not paid this application will not be consistent with the General Plan and approval for this project shall be void. 3) Prior to the approval of the final map for the first phase the developer shall provide in writing to the Planning I Director proof of the long term viability of the 2 acre recreational vehicle storage lot shown as part of Planning Area 23. If the applicant can not show the permanence of such facility then the applicant shall provide an alternative site subject to the approval of the Planning Director.

No development shall occur within this Master Plan until this dedication is made. 6) Prior to dedication of the Batiquitos Lagoon to the appropriate governmental agency the applicant shall dedicate full half street right of way of El Camino Real and based on a centerline to right of way width of 63 feet along the Master Plan Boundary. Such dedication shall include additional right of way along El Camino Real near the intersection of La Costa Avenue to accommodate the ultimate improvement of th5s intersection as determined by the City Engineer. All dedication shall include provision for all slope drainage consents necessary to construct the pad improvements. 7) Approval of Master Plan No. 177 is granted subject to the approval of the Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan. 8) This project shall comply with all conditions and mitigation required by the Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan approved by the City Council on ? incorporated herein and on file in the Planning Department, and any future amendments to that Plan made prior to the issuance of building permits. 9) Approval of Master Plan No. 177 is granted subject to its compliance with Section 21.38.060(5) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.
