That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal
Program and all applicable policies in that no prime agricultural lands exist on or near
the site; no environmentally sensitive habitats exist on or near the roadway site; the
proposed improvements do not conflict with any existing pedestrian coastal access
routes and the turn pocket would facilitate U-turns thus improving the vehicular
access to the Carlsbad State Beach campground; any erosion will be controlled by
grading in conformance with applicable City standards; and no significant visual
panoramas exist on the arterial right-of-way site.
The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3
of the Coastal Act in that the proposed improvements do not conflict with any existing
pedestrian coastal access routes and the turn pocket would facilitate U-turns thus
improving the vehicular access to the Carlsbad State Beach campground.
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 site is not located in the Coastal Agricultural Overlay Zone, according
to Map X of the Land Use Plan certified September 1980, and, therefore, is not
subject to the provisions of the Coastal Agricultural Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.202
of the Zoning Ordinance).
The project is not located between the sea and the first public road parallel to the
sea and, therefore, is not subject to the provisions of the Coastal Shoreline
Development Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.204 of the Zoning Ordinance).
The project is not located within the Mello I segment of the Local Coastal Program
and, therefore, is not subject to the Coastal Resource Overlay Zone Mello I Segment
Ordinance (Chapter 21.205 of the Zoning Ordinance).
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 15301 - Existing Facilities
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.
