The proposed Master Plan Amendment is minor in nature, because it meets the criteria in Section 21.38.120 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code and potentially affects only 38 single-family lots in the entire master plan by creating a development m 0 1 standard that enhances the planning area's street scene and encourages the use c single-story, side-loaded, garages. 2 3 2. The proposed Minor Master Plan Amendment does not change the densities or tk boundaries of the property, or involve an addition of a new use or group of uses nc shown on the original master plan or the rearrangement of uses within the mast1 4 plan. 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 3. The Minor Master Plan Amendment to allow the reduced front yard setback for sidl loaded garages would not significantly impact the environment. Creating a ne. development standard that encourages the design of garages that do not fac directly onto the public right-of-way, and requires enhanced architecture an landscaping along the fiont building elevations reduces visual impacts along th street. 4. The Planning Commission determines that the project is within the scope of EIR 8f 02(A) and the Mitigated Negative Declaration for CI' 90-15, on file in the Plannin Department, and there are no additional significant adverse environmental impacl associated with the minor amendment, therefore, no further environmental revie1 of this project is required.
