That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal
Program and all applicable policies in that the project site is designated for single-
family residential development, and the development consists of one single-family
residence; the development does not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from
public lands or public rights-of-way or otherwise damage the visual beauty of the
coastal zone; and no agricultural activities, sensitive resources, geological instability
or coastal access opportunities exist on the previously graded and subdivided site.
The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay
Zone (Chapter 21.03 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the City's
Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, Standard Urban
Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) and Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management
Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban run off, pollutants and soil erosion. No steep
slopes or native vegetation is located on the subject property and the site is not located in
an area prone to landslides, or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods or liquefaction.
The project is not located between the sea the first public road parallel to the sea and,
therefore, is not subject to the provisions of the Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay
Zone (Chapters 21.204 of the Zoning Ordinance).
The project is not located in the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone, according to Map X
of the Land Use Plan, certified September 1990 and, therefore, is not subjected to the
provisions of the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.202 of the Zoning
Ordinance).
The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3
of the Coastal Act in that there is existing development surrounding the project site
and there are no public recreation or access opportunities for this property.
That the Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects
that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the
environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the
preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15303 - (single-family
residence in an urbanized area) of the state CEQA Guidelines. In making this
determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in Section
15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project.
The project is consistent with the City-Wide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local
Facilities Management Plan for Zone 22 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.

A. The project has been conditioned to provide proof from the Carlsbad Unified
School District that the project has satisfied its obligation for school facilities.
B. The Public Facility fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be
collected prior to the issuance of building permit.
8. The Planning CommissiodCity Council hereby finds that all development in Carlsbad
benefits from the Habitat Management Plan, which is a comprehensive conservation plan
and implementation program that will facilitate the preservation of biological diversity
and provide for effective protection and conservation of wildlife and plant species while
continuing to allow compatible development in accordance with Carlsbad’s Growth
Management Plan. Preservation of wildlife habitats and sensitive species is required by
the Open Space and Conservation Element of the City’s General Plan which provides for
the realization of the social, economic, aesthetic and environmental benefits from the
preservation of open space within an increasingly urban environment. Moreover, each
new development will contribute to the need for additional regional infrastructure that, in
turn, will adversely impact species and habitats. The In-Lieu Mitigation Fee imposed on
all new development within the City is essential to fund implementation of the City’s
Habitat Management Plan.
9. The Planning Commission has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer
contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed
to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the
degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project.

building permit.
1. If any of the following conditions fail to occur; or if they are, by their terms, to be
implemented and maintained over time, if any of such conditions fail to be so
implemented and maintained according to their terms, the City shall have the right to
revoke or modify all approvals herein granted; deny or further condition issuance of all
future building permits; deny, revoke or further condition all certificates of occupancy
issued under the authority of approvals herein granted; institute and prosecute litigation to
compel their compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their violation. No
vested rights are gained by Developer or a successor in interest by the City’s approval of
this Coastal Development Permit.
2. Staff is authorized and directed to make, or require the Developer to make, all corrections
and modifications to the Coastal Development Permit documents, as necessary to make
them internally consistent and in conformity with the final action on the project.
Development shall occur substantially as shown on the approved Exhibits. Any proposed
development different from this approval, shall require an amendment to this approval.
3. Developer shall comply with all applicable provisions of federal, state, and local laws and
regulations in effect at the time of building permit issuance..
