That the granting of this permit will not adversely affect and will be consistent with the Municipal Code, the General Plan and all adopted plans of the City and other governmental agencies, in that the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance allow an increase in density for affordable housing and senior housing projects, therefore, with approval of the requested density increase, the 61 du/ac senior housing condominium project will be considered consistent with the adopted plans of the City. The project complies with the R-3 zoning standards and is incompliance with the senior citizen housing development standards and design criteria. That the proposed use at the particular location is necessary and desirable to provide a service or facility which will contribute to the long-term general well-being of the neighborhood and the community, in that the senior housing project provides housing designed to meet the needs of senior residents and is a housing type that is needed for the development of the community. The site is in a desirable location due to its close proximity to the Carlsbad Village area and Senior Center, the site will incorporate a bus stop within the project frontage, and the site is level and suitable for development of this type. The project is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood which consists of single-family and multi-family residential projects. That such use will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity, in that the project is compatible with surrounding residential uses; provides all necessary public improvements to serve the demand generated by the project; as designed provides adequate setbacks, landscaping and circulation improvements; and complies with all City ordinances and standards. That the proposed 51-unit senior citizen airspace condominium meets or exceeds all of the minimum development standards set forth in Chapter 21.18.045 which sets forth the mechanisms and standards for the development of rental or for-sale senior housing. That the proposed project is designed to be sensitive to and blend in with the natural topography of the site, and maintains and enhances significant natural resources on the site, in that the site has been previously graded and is relatively level and can accommodate the proposed development consisting of a three-story building and underground parking garage. The site contains no natural resources or varied natural topography. That the proposed project’s design and density of the developed portion of the site is compatible with surrounding development and does not create a disharmonious or disruptive element to the neighborhood, in that the project design is consistent with the height, mass and scale of many of the nearby multi-family projects and is consistent with the density allowed for other nearby senior citizen housing projects. The project exceeds the density permitted by the RMH General Plan designation by 42 units, however, the increased density is permitted pursuant to Chapter 21.53.

That the project’s circulation system is designed to be efficient and well integrated with the project and does not dominate the project, in that the project has a private driveway that provides direct access to the underground resident and guest parking spaces.
