NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commissior of the City of Carlsbad as follows: 25 I 26 27 PC RES0 NO. 3558 1 28 -,. e 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Findin=: 1. That hillside conditions and undevelopable areas of the project have been properll identified because the site's hillside slope conditions and undevelopable areas have been identified on a slope constraints exhibit. 2. That the development proposal and all applicable development approvals and pennits are consistent with the purpose, intent, and requirements of this chapta and that the project design substantially conforms to the intent of the concept! illustrated in the hillside development guidelines manual for the following reasons 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 a. All manufactured cut and fill slopes are land form/contour graded and do not exceed a height of 30 feet. b. The project's cut/fill grading volumes of 8,915 cubic yds. per graded acre falls within the "potentially acceptable range" of 8,000 - 10,000 cubic yds./acre. Included in these volumes is 43,200 cubic yds. of grading for Alga Road which is a circulation element roadway. When Alga Road is subtracted out of the grading calculations, the project's grading volumes are reduced to 8,481 cubic yds. per graded acre and are still witbin the "potentially acceptable range". Based on engineering requirements to meet specific fixed vertical and horizontal alignments for proposed Alga Road and the extension of Camino de las Ondas, which is a non-loaded collector road traversing across the entire project, the Planning Director and City Engineer approve the proposed grading volumes. c. Landscaping in conformance with the Zone 20 Specific Plan would be provided on all manufactured slopes to assist in visually screening the slopes erosion and to reduce erosion. 19 I 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 d. All structures and roofs within the project would be earth tone in color to reduce visual impacts. e. A percentage of the homes along the north/south trending and gently sloping ridgeline would be one-story in height and all homes would have varying roof lines. f. Homes are setback from the top of manufactured slopes from a range of 17 to 50 feet. 3. That no development or grading will occur in those portions of the property which are undevelopable pursuant to the provisions of Section 21.53.230 of this code PC RES0 NO. 3558 2 I 28 1, . I* e 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 because all undevelopable areas have been identified and no development or gradin would occur in the areas containing 25 to 45%+ slopes. The project contains 11 wetland areas, riparian or woodland habitats, floodways, major power transmissio easements, beaches, or permanent bodies of water. 4. That the project design and lot configuration minimizes disturbance of hillside land because the proposed grading would create building pads that are terraced for view and step down the slope. A majority of the local streets and manufactured slope are cunring and are aligned to follow the north/south trending contours. The stree alignments and curving land form graded slopes would reduce visual impacts createc by the grading and help simulate the natural slope conditions. 5. The project is consistent with all City public facility policies and ordinances since The Planning Commission has, by inclusion of an appropriate condition to thi project, ensured building permits will not be issued for the project unless thl District Engineer determines that sewer service is available, and building canno occur within the project unless sewer service remains available, and the Plannin? Commission is satisfied that the requirements of the Public Facilities Element of tht General Plan have been met insofar as they apply to sewer service for this project 6. The applicant is by condition, required to pay any increase in public facility fee, 0: new construction tax, or development fees, and has agreed to abide by an! additional requirements established by a Local Facilities Management Plan prepare( pursuant to Chapter 21.90 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code. This will ensurc continued availability of public facilities and will mitigate any cumulative impact created by the project. 7. This project is consistent with the City’s Growth Management Ordinance as it ha, been conditioned to comply with any requirement approved as part of the Loca: Facilities Management Plan for Zone 20. 8. School fees will be paid to ensure the availability of school facilities in the Carlsbac Unified District. 9. Park-in-lieu fees are required as a condition of approval. 10. AI1 necessary public improvements have been provided or will be required a! conditions of approval. 11. The applicant has agreed and is required by the inclusion of an appropriatt 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.
