28
1 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning
2 Commission of the City of Carlsbad as follows:
3
A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct.
4
r B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission
APPROVES RILEY RESIDENCE - CDP 06-05, based on the following
6 findings and subject to the following conditions:
7 Findings:
° 1. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal
n Program and all applicable policies in that the project consists of construction of a new
single-family residence on a previously subdivided and currently undeveloped lot
10 designated for residential development; no agricultural activities, sensitive
resources, geological instability, flood hazard, or coastal access opportunities exist
11 onsite and the development does not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from
public lands or public right-of-way or otherwise damage the visual beauty of the
coastal zone.
13 2. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3
14 of the Coastal Act in that adequate vertical public access exists to the north and south
of the property and the subject property was not identified as a potential lot for
15 future additional public access to the shoreline in the Local Coastal Program.
However, the owner is conditioned to dedicate a lateral access to a minimum of 25
feet of dry sandy beach at all times of the year to the California Coastal Commission
17 or their designee as agreed to with the California Coastal Commission.
18 3. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay
Zone (Chapter 21.203 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the
City's Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance,
2Q Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP), and Jurisdictional Urban
Runoff Management Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban runoff,
21 pollutants, and soil erosion. While steep slopes are located on the western half of the
property, no development is proposed on these slopes, and the site is not located in
22 an area prone to landslides or susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or
,, liquefaction. The existing slopes do not support any endangered plant/animal
species and/or coastal sage scrub and chaparral plant communities, and no
24 development is proposed on the slope areas.
25 4. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Shoreline Development
Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.204 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that vertical public access
exists to the north and south of the project. The site is currently not used, and
27 historically has not been used, for vertical access. No vertical access is warranted
for this development, based upon the ordinance criteria. However, the owner is
28 conditioned to dedicate a lateral access to a minimum of 25 feet of dry sandy beach
at all times of the year to the California Coastal Commission or their designee as
PCRESONO. 6231 -2-
agreed to with the California Coastal Commission. In addition, a geotechnical
2 analysis of the project site was prepared. The bluff face is covered with riprap and
is located approximately 50 feet below the proposed structure. The analysis
3 concluded that the proposed development will have no adverse effects on the
stability of the coastal slope. The project adheres to all coastal "stringline" setback
requirements for the placement of new structures and balconies.
5. That the Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects
6 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
7 preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15303(a) (construction of a
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
g Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project.
10 6. The project is not located in the Coastal Agricultural Overlay Zone, according to Map X
of the Land Use Plan, certified September 1990 and, therefore, is not subject to the
11 provisions of the Coastal Agriculture Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.202 of the Zoning
Ordinance).12
7. The project is consistent with the Citywide Facilities and Improvements Plan, the Local
Facilities Management Plan for Zone 3, and all City public facility policies and
14 ordinances. The project includes elements or has been conditioned to construct or
provide funding to ensure that all facilities and improvements regarding sewer collection
15 and treatment; water; drainage; circulation; fire; schools; parks and other recreational
facilities; libraries; government administrative facilities; and open space, related to the
16 project will be installed to serve new development prior to or concurrent with need.
, 7 Specifically:
18 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.
19
B. The Public Facility fee is required to be paid by Council Policy No. 17 and will be
collected prior to the issuance of a building permit.
21 8. The Planning Commission has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer
22 contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed
to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to this project, and the extent and the
23 degree of exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project.
