That the proposed map and the proposed design and improvement of the subdivision as conditioned, is consistent with and satisfies all requirements of the General Plan, any applicable specific plans, Titles 20 and 21 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, and the State Subdivision Map Act, and will not cause serious public health problems, in that the proposed project is for the conversion of an existing hotel into timeshare units. The proposed project is consistent with all Title 20 and Title 21 regulations governing subdivisions. The project is developed with an existing hotel which is a legal non- conforming use in the R-3 zone. The proposed project will change the use to timeshares which is a conditionally permitted use in the R-3 zone. The proposed 9 unit timeshare will have 9 parking spaces on-site which is consistent with Title 21 since Section 21.42.010 of the CMC allows for a reduction down to 1.0 parking space per timeshare unit. That the proposed project is compatible with the surrounding future land uses since surrounding properties are designated for Residential High (RH) density development on the General Plan, and are currently developed with hotels, residential uses and a retirement facility. That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of the development since the site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate timeshare development at the density proposed, in that the proposed project is for the conversion of an existing hotel into timeshares. There are no substantial changes proposed to the exterior of the building. The site can accommodate 9 timeshare units since the new use will require only interior alterations in the building. Section 21.42.010 of the CMC allows for the reduction of parking spaces for timeshare units down to 1.0 space per unit. The site will have 9 parking spaces on-site for the proposed 9 timeshare units. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements of record or easements established by court judgment, or acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, in that the project is proposing to convert an existing hotel building into timeshares. Only minor physical changes are proposed to the exterior of building. That the property is not subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act). 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 the project is for conversion of an existing hotel building into timeshare units. 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 PC RES0 NO. 5631 -2- 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 8. 9. 10. Note: 1. 2. 3. against the public service needs of the City and available fiscal and environmental resources.

No physical changes are proposed to the exterior of building. That the discharge of waste fiom the subdivision will not result in violation of existing California Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements, in that the project is proposing to convert an existing hotel building into timeshares.
