GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT
PONTO BEACHFRONT VILLAGE VISION PLAN
PROPOSED AMENDMENT
GPA 05-04
Amend Section II of the Land Use Element of the City of Carlsbad General Plan by adding a
new Number 3 to Subsection D. Special Planning Considerations to read as follows:
“3. The Ponto Beachfront Village Area consists of approximately 50 acres of land located
between Carlsbad Boulevard and the San Diego Northern Railroad, north of Batiquitos
Lagoon and south of Ponto Road. It is part of a larger land use and circulation study area
containing 130 acres extending from the southern city limits on Carlsbad Boulevard to
Poinsettia Lane. The northern portion of the area is also located within the boundaries of
the city’s South Carlsbad Coastal Redevelopment Plan. Presently, the area contains older
homes and businesses which have a strong potential for redevelopment and several
important underutilized or vacant properties. Recognizing the potential for new
development in this area and its important location at the southern gateway to the city, a
Vision Plan has been prepared for the area. The Plan includes a Vision Statement,
desirable land uses, a proposed vehicular and pedestrian circulation system and design
guidelines to direct future development in the area. The intent of the Vision Plan is to
create a mixed use, active pedestrian and bicycle oriented area with a strong sense of
place, village atmosphere and unique character of design. Future proposals for new
development within this area of special planning consideration shall be guided by the Vision
Plan and all future development permits (site development plan, coastal development
permit, etc.) shall be reviewed by the city for conformance with the Ponto Beachfront
Village Vision Plan.”
Renumber existing Subsection D. numbers 3 through 7 to numbers 4 through 8.
