That the design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision, in that lots are oriented in an east-west alignment for southern exposure and to take advantage of prevailing breezes. That the Planning Commission has considered, in connection with the housing proposed by this subdivision, the housing needs of the region, and balanced those housing needs against the public service needs of the City and available fiscal and environmental resources. That the design of the subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, in that the project site has been disturbed and does not contain any significant habitats. That the discharge of waste from the subdivision will not result in violation of existing California Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements, in that the project has been designed in accordance with the Best Management practices for water quality protection in accordance with the City’s sewer and drainage standards and the project is conditioned to comply with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. The Planning Commission finds that the project, as conditioned herein, is in conformance with the Elements of the City’s General Plan and Specific Plan 203 based on the facts set forth in the staff report dated January 17, 2001 including, but not limited to the following: A. Land Use - The project is consistent with the City’s General Plan since the proposed density of 2.95 du/acre is within the density range of O-4 du/acre specified for the site as indicated on the Land Use Element of the General Plan, and is below the growth control point of 3.2 du/acre. B. Circulation - The circulation system is designed to provide adequate access to the proposed lots and complies with all applicable City design standards. C. Housing - That the project is consistent with the Housing Element of the General Plan and the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance as the Developer has been conditioned to enter into an Affordable Housing Agreement to purchase two affordable housing credits in Villa Loma. The project is consistent with the City-Wide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local Facilities Management Plan for Zone 20 and all City public facility policies and ordinances. The project includes elements or has been conditioned to construct or provide funding to ensure that all facilities and improvements regarding: sewer collection and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire; schools; parks and other recreational facilities; libraries; government administrative facilities; and open space, related to the project will be installed to serve new development prior to or concurrent with need.

That the project is consistent with the City’s Landscape Manual (Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 14.28.020 and Landscape Manual Section I B). That the property cannot be served adequately with a public street without panhandle lots due to unfavorable conditions resulting from unusual topography, surrounding land development, or lot configuration, in that the portion of the parcel proposed for the panhandle lot is otherwise inaccessible. That subdivision with panhandle lots will not preclude or adversely affect the ability to provide full public street access to other properties within the same block of the subject property, in that all other lots in the subdivision will have public street access. That the buildable portion of the lot consists of 9,150 square feet and the panhandle lot satisfies all required development standards of Section 21.10.080(c) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code; That the front, side, and rear property lines of the buildable lot, for purposes of determining required yards, are as shown on Exhibit “B” dated February 21,200l. That any panhandle lot hereby approved satisfies all the requirements of Section 21.10.080(d) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code.

A note shall be placed on the grading permit stipulating that the following measures shall be required to achieve compliance with these rules, and reduce construction-related air pollutants: The watering of all surfaces being graded and haul routes shall be required during dry weather conditions. All unpaved areas shall be revegetated according to approved landscape plans as soon as possible after grading. All construction-related traffic shall be restricted to routes that are dust- controlled, and reduced speed limits shall be maintained for all haul and construction vehicles. All construction activities shall be limited during periods of high winds.

Constructiou equipment shall be subject to regularly scheduled maintenance/tune-ups, and be turned off when not being utilized to avoid excessive idling emissions. The application of architectural coating and cut-back asphalt shall adhere to APCD Rules 67.0 and 67.7, to effectively control other construction-related emissions of air pollutants. The Engineering Department shall monitor for compliance during all grading operations of the project. The Homeowner’s Association shall obtain and distribute to owners and tenants annual information from Caltrans and North County Transit regarding the availability of public transportation, ride-sharing, and transportation pooling services in the area.

A copy of the paleontologist’s report shall be provided to the Planning Director prior to issuance of a grading permit. A qualified paleontologist shall be retained to perform periodic inspections of the site and to salvage exposed fossils. Due to the small nature of some of the fossils present in the geologic strata, it may be necessary to collect matrix samples for laboratory processing through tine screens. The paleontologist shall make periodic reports to the Planning Director during the grading process. The paleontologist shall be allowed to divert or direct grading in the area of an exposed fossil in order to facilitate evaluation and, if necessary, salvage artifacts. All fossils collected shall be donated to a public, non-profit institution with a research interest in the materials, such as the San Diego Natural History Museum.
