In addition, the Planning Commission has added a condition that a note shall be placed on the final map that building permits may not be issued for the project unless the City Engineer determines that sewer service is available, and building cannot occur within the project unless sewer service remains available, and the Planning Commission is satisfied that the requirements of the Public Facilities Element of the General Plan have been met insofar as they apply to sewer service for this project. ~ 17 18 19 I 20 I b) The Carlsbad Unified School District has written a letter, dated July 7, 1986, stating that, the project applicant's offer to dedicate a 12.4 acre site at the intersection of Alga Road and "A" Street for a school, is acceptable as mitigation of the impact to existing school facilities. Implementation of this agreement will ensure that school facilities are available to this project. 21 22 23 24 c) Park land dedication (24.25 acres and 5.75 acres of reserve) within Planning Area 32 of MP-177, is required as discussed within the Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan. d) All necessary public improvements have been provided or will be required as conditions of approval. 25 *e* 26 -0. 27 0.0 28 PC RES0 NO. 2595 2. .* ,I .. ,' ..1 . ll m 0 1 2 3 4 5 e) The applicant has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an appropriate condition to pay a public facilities fee. The applicant has also agreed by condition to pay all Growth Management Fees. 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. f) Assurances have been given that adequate sewer for the project will be provided by the City of Carlsbad. 6 6) The proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future 8 Guidelines Manual. 7 5) The proposed project is consistent with the City's Planned Development Ordinance and also complies with the Design land uses since surrounding properties are designated for 9 residential development on the General Plan. 10 11 7) 12 13 14 15 16 17 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 regard 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: l8 I 19 i 20 21 22 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 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; 23 24 25 26 27 28 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.

November 4, 1987 Page 1 of 5 - - The following items constitute the Planning Commission environmental findings for this project. The mitigation measures listed below describe the project changes which reduce these impacts to insignificant levels, with the possibility of two exceptions, traffic and air quality. 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 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. A. LAND USE Impact: The project is inconsistent with LCP policy regarding allowable densities of development. Mitigation: LCP amendments are being processed in order to allow higher densities of development while ensuring the preservation of sensitive coastal resources. Impact: The project is not in compliance with LCP policies to protect steep slopes and sensitive coastal habitats. Mitigation: The project has been redesigned to keep development off of steep slopes and sensitive coastal habitats. Provisions have been included in the Master Plan to require that any development proposed shall comply with all slope and sensitive resource LCP policies. ' '1 4 - *. 0 0 Impact: The development of Planning Area 32 will result in impacts to Batiquitos Lagoon wetlands. Mitigation: Planning Area 32 has been deleted from this project. This project area will be maintained in open space. B. AGRICULTURE Impact: Implementation of this project will result in the conversion of 360 acres of prime and non- prime coastal agricultural land to urban uses. Nitigation: This impact will be mitigated througn the papent to the State Coastal Conservancy of agricultural conversion fees in an amount of between 5,000 to 10,000 per acre, c. VISUAL AESTHETICS Impact: Development of Planning Areas 28 and 30 as proposed will result in visual impacts to passersby on La Costa Avenue, Pacific Rim Drive and Interstate 5. Mitigation: These Planning Areas have been redesigned and provisions (development standards) have been included within the Master Plan to mitigate potential visual impacts to the develo-rnent of these Planning Areas. Impact: Development would irrevocably alter the site's appearance from an undeveloped site to one of urban development, Mitigation: An unavoidable impact would result from any urban development of the project site. The project has, however, been designed to maintain the Batiquitos Lagoon and its shoreline in open space. In addition, most major slopes and tree groves will also be preserved in open space. Impact : Grading will result in permanent landform alteration. Mitigation: Development will generally follow natural topography with a golf course in the major drainage canyons and the lowest densities of development along the ridgelines. Per Master Plan standards, contour grading will be used, -2- 1- 'L .Le- o 0 as well as development techniques such as stepped building pads and split-level designs. Nany natural slopes will be retained. Implementation of these measures will adequately mitigate grading impacts. D. TRAFFIC CIRCULATION Impact: Implementation of the proposed project (4300 du's and other commercial uses prior to Growth Management) would result in the completion of improvements to Alga Road, and Pacific Rim Drive and partial improvement to Poinsettia Lane. However, even with these project improvements, the EIR indicates that the intersections of El Camino Real with Alga Road and La Costa Avenue will operate at poor levels of service under both the existing General Plan and with the proposed project (pre-Growth Management) . However, the EIR also notes that these traffic impacts are not solely project related, but are regional in nature, and will occur with or without the project. Mitigation: With the implementation of Growth Management, thereby resulting in the reduction in project dwelling units from 4300 du's to 2836 du's, and Citywide residential densities overall, and through the requirement to implement circulation mitigation measures typically in excess of normal City standards, there will be no unmitigable circulation impacts associated with the proposed project (see Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan). Based upon these new circulation findings of the Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan, it can be concluded that the project at its reduced residential density, in association with the requirements of the project to implement the identified circulation impacts identified within the Zone 19 Local Facilities Management Plan, no unmitigable circulation impacts are anticipated. E. NOISE Impact: Implementation of this project will result in traffic noise levels above City standards along Alga Road. Mitigation: These noise impacts will be adequately mitigated by the incorporation of noise berms/walls along Alga Road within noise sensitive areas. -3- '1 i - */ .. * . 0 e €7. AIR QUALITY Impact: The proposed project will result in growth unanticipated by SANDAG Series VI growth forecasts resulting in incremental increases in both non-vehicular and vehicular emissions. Mitigation: The proposed project has been scaled back from 4,300 dwelling units to 2,836 to comply with the City's growth control points. This action should help to bring the air quality figures in line with the Series VI population growth forecasts. Effective long-term mitigation can only be accomplished on a regional basis. G. PUBLIC SERVICES Impact: Implementation of this project may overburden an existing sewer pump station and will contribute to the overcrowding of local scnools. Mitigation: These impacts can be mitigated through the upgrading of existing sewer facilities prior to any Phase 2 or 3 development; and through the dedication of a 12.4 acre school site to the Carlsbad Unified School District. These measures have been made provisions of the Master Plan. 1H. HYDROLOGY Impact: Implementation of this project will result in increased erosion due to grading and runoff of urban contaminants into Batiquitos Lagoon. Mitigation: These impacts will be mitigated through the incorporation of sediment control basins and drainage facilities to control runoff, In addition, a maintenance program to remove debris from paved surfaces will be implemented to reduce chemical ccntaminants associated with runoff. I. BIOLOGY Impact: Implementation of the project as proposed would result in several biological impacts including: -4- F" ?-; * -. 0. 8 a) impacts to wetlands habitat from the development of Planning Area 32 b) impacts to riparian habitat from development of the 1st and 18th golf fairways c) impacts to sensitive coastal habitats in Planning Areas 13, 14, 15 and 26. Mitigation: These impacts have been mitigated through the deletion of Planning Area 32 from the Master Plan, the redesign of the other Planning Areas and through the incorporation of provisions into the Master Plan to keep development out of sensitive biological areas. J , GEOLOGY Impact: Portions of the subject property are encumbered by various geological constraints including; compressible alluvial soils, slope instability, expansive soils, landslide areas and seisrnic areas. Mitigation: These potential impacts can be mitigated by; (1) the implementation of geotechnical recommendations included in the Phase I geotechnical investigation report, (2) completion of Phase I1 subsurface geotechnical investigation and the implementation of associated recommendations, (3) stabilization of ancient landslides through buttressing and subdrain installation, removal and recompaction, or other similar techniques, and (4) the utilization of earthquake resistant building designs. K. CULTURAL RESOURCES Impact: Implementation of the project would result in the destruction of Significant cultural and paleontological resouices. Mitigation: Impacts to cultural resources can be mitigated through the placement of resource sites in undisturbed open space or the implementation of a Phase I1 data recovery program, Impacts to paleontological resources can be mitigated by having a qualified paleontologist monitor present during the cutting of previously undisturbed sediments. If significant fossils are discovered, grading should be halted to allow fossil recovery, The fossil locale that has already been discovered must be properly sampled prior to grading in that area. -5-
