A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct.
B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission
recommends APPROVAL of MP 175(D), according to Exhibit "X", dated
October 20, 1993, based on the following findings and subject to the
following conditions.
FindingS:
1. All necessary public improvements to implement Master Plan Amendment 175(D)
have been provided or will be required as conditions of approval.
2. The master plan will serve as the zoning ordinance for the property. Where the
plan varies from existing city regulations, specific policy statements are presented
to clarify the intent and purpose of the proposed regulation. The proposed master
I plan amendment is consistent with the City's General Plan as identified within the

findings for GPA 91-05, Resolution No. 3553, hereby incorporated by reference.
All necessary public facilities can be provided concurrent with need and adequate
provisions have been provided to implement those portions of the capital
improvements program applicable to the subject property, because the master plan
has language in the text stating that all future development shall comply with the
public facility performance standards and phasing requirements of the Local
Facilities Management Plan (LFMP) for Zone 9 and the Zone 9 LFMP Amendment.
Public facilities are required to be constructed as subsequent development in the
master plan creates demand for additional facilities. The demand for public facilities
and services will be less than the impacts created by the former Batiquitos Lagoon
Educational Park Master Plan (BLEP), therefore, a shortfall or negative impact to
public facilities will not result. A financing plan for the Zone 9 LFMP, to be
approved by the City Council prior to the recordation of the first final map within
the master plan, will outline the mechanisms for the financing of the required public
facilities.
The residential and open space portions of the community will constitute an
environment of sustained desirability and stability that will be in harrnony with, or
provide compatible variety to, the character of the surrounding areas. The sites
proposed for public facilities are adequate to serve the anticipated land uses and
residential densities and appear acceptable to the public authorities having
jurisdiction thereof. The master plan's open space plan provides approximately 35
acres of natural open space within the master plan's 162 total acres which provides
for the protection of the biological habitat, steep slopes and wetland areas
associated with the north shore of the Batiquitos Lagoon. Other areas will be
maintained as open space for recreation purposes and for visual aesthetics. The
open space areas maintain existing corridors for the migration of wildlife and

preserve existing ~t~ral habitat that buffers the developed and developable
planning areas of the master plan as well as adjacent properties. In addition, a
master plan trail system is proposed within some of the open space areas. On
August 26,1993, this project was reviewed by the Open Space Advisory Committee
and found to be consistent with the City's Open Space and Conservation Resource
Management Plan.
The proposed travel service-commercial uses of the master plan will be appropriate
in area, location and overall design to the purpose intended. The design ail
development standards established for these planning areas through the master plan
are intended to create an environment of sustained desirability and stability. Such
development will meet performance standards established by Title 21 of the
Municipal Code, because approximately 12 acres is proposed to maintain a travel
service-commercial designation within the master plan. The planning areas with
this designation are adequate in size and shape to develop with travel service-
commercial uses. Before any master plan sites are developed with commercial land
uses, a Site Development Plan (SDP) must be approved by the Planning
Commission. This SDP would ensure that the proposed land use is compatible with
and an asset to the surrounding neighborhood, and that all necessary public
improvements are provided, including dedicated public rights-of-way, sidewalks, etc.
No industrial land uses are proposed with the Poinsettia Shores Master Plan.

6. In the case of recreational and other similar nonresidential uses, such development
will be proposed, and surrounding areas are protected from any adverse effects from
the development, because the project's private community recreational facility will
be bordered on one side by a roadway (Avenida Encinas) and buffered otherwise
from adjacent residential units. There is also an unplanned area (approximately 11
acres) within the master plan on the west side of the property north of the future
Avenida Encinas alignment. Proposed as a Non-Residential Reserve, this planning
area is intended to be an unplanned area and the subject of a future major master
plan amendment. Specific land use and development proposals, as well as
environmental review, public facilities assessments and local coastal program
changes will be considered with the major master plan amendment. This provision
is consistent with Section 21.38.070 of the Municipal Code which allow up to forty
percent of a master plan's total area to be reserved for future planning efforts. The
only remaining non-residential land use to be constructed in the master plan is the
.9 acre recreational vehicle storage site located on the west side of the master plan
(Planning Area "E") which will have adequate access and size to function properly.
No institutional uses are proposed with this master plan amendment.
7. The streets and thoroughfares proposed are suitable and adequate to carry the
anticipated traffic thereon, because traffic studies have been completed for the
project's environmental review and the Local Facilities Management Plan
Amendment for Zone 9. Compliance with the mitigation conditions required by

these studies and plans would ensure that all circulation infrastructure is in placc
to serve the tr&c demands generated by buildout of the Poinsettia Shores Maste
Plan which will generate substantially less traffic than the former BLEP master pla
(26,500 ADT vs. 12,300 ADT).
8. Any proposed commercial development (other than travel service-commercial uses:
will be justified economically at the location proposed and will provide adequatc
commercial facilities of the types needed at such location proposed with any future
major master plan amendment to introduce commercial uses because this maste.
plan amendment does not propose such uses at this time. In addition, pursuant tc
Section 21.38.060 (2)(B), a land use and public facility economic impact report has
been submitted to, and accepted by, the City.
9. The area surrounding the development is, or can be, planned and zoned ir
coordination and substantial compatibility with the proposed development, becausc
the master plan area will be buffered from the existing Lakeshore Gardens Mob&
Home Park to the north of the site and is bounded on the east by the 1-5 freeway
the south by Batiquitos Lagoon and the west by Carlsbad Boulevard so that nc
conflicts in land use compatibility will be created adjacent to the master plan area
10. Appropriate measures are proposed to mitigate adverse environmental impacts a
noted in the adopted mitigated negative declaration for the project. A certifiec
environmental review of the property exists (EIR 84-3) and, in addition, thc
proposed master plan amenhent will reduce the intensity of the allowed land use
developments associated with BLEP. There will not be an increase to the projected
population of the area, however, average daily trips will be reduced by more than
half the traffic allowed by BLEP (26,500 ADT vs. 12,300 ADT). The proposed
amendment of the master plan would not incorporate any new policies that would
result in significant impacts to the environment or the Batiquitos Lagoon.
Conditions of approval for the master plan amendment and any subsequent planning
area development proposals will include the appropriate mitigation requirements oi
the project's Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation and Monitoring Program
as attached to Planning Commission Resolution No. 3551.
11.. The proposed master plan amendment and associated land use changes will be
consistent with the West Batiquitos Lagoon Local Coastal Program (LCP) because
this project will conditioned to complete the processing of a LCP Amendment (LCPA
91-02 is part of the entitlement package) to reflect the land use changes made tc
the BLEP plan by Poinsettia Shores. In addition, prior to the issuance of a final map
for each development/planning area within the master plan area, a Coastal
Development Permit consistent with the West Batiquitos LCP must be obtained.
