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
<- B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission
APPROVES PHIPPS RESIDENCE - CDP 06-27, based on the following
6 findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings:
7
1. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal
Program and all applicable policies in that the project proposes the modification and
9 allowance of an existing partial enclosure over an existing patio area, a
fireplace/chimney, a built-in barbeque, and a block wall on the eastern portion of an
10 existing single-family residence. The subject site has an LCP Land Use Plan
designation of RH (Residential High Density; 15.0-23.0 du/ac), which allows for 19.0
dwelling units per acre at the Growth Management Control Point. The proposed
j2 accessory structures associated with a single-family residence is consistent with the
land use type and density regulations for the property.
13
The proposed accessory structures to a single-family residence would be consistent
14 with the surrounding development of single-family structures. The additions will
not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right-of-
way since a single-family residence exists, nor otherwise damage the visual beauty of
16 the coastal zone. No agricultural uses currently exist on the site, nor are there any
sensitive resources located on the property. The proposed additions on the east side
17 of the property are not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood
hazard. No public opportunities for coastal shoreline access are available from the
subject site. The residentially designated site is not suited for water-oriented
in recreation activities.
20 2. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3
of the Coastal Act in that the property is located adjacent to the shore; however, there
21 are no opportunities for vertical coastal access or recreational activities from the
subject site as the site is developed with a single family residence and there are no
public access easements on the lot for public beach access. There is adequate
23 vertical public access to public beaches located to the north and south of the
property. Therefore, the project will not interfere with the public's right to physical
24 access to the sea.
25 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,
27 Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP), and Jurisdictional Urban
Runoff Management Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban runoff,
28 pollutants, and soil erosion. No steep slopes or native vegetation is located on the
PCRESONO. 6388 -3-
subject property and the site is not located in an area prone to landslides, or
2 susceptible to accelerated erosion, floods, or liquefaction.
3 4. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Coastal Shoreline Development
Overlay Zone (Chapter 21.204 of the Zoning Ordinance) to provide the public with the
4 right of lateral access to a minimum of twenty-five feet of dry sandy beach, in that the
project has been conditioned to provide the public with this access at all times of the
year. The new additions are constructed on the east side of the existing residence
5 and are not adjacent to any steep slopes.
7 5. The project is consistent with the provisions of the Beach Area Overlay Zone (Chapter
21.82 of the Zoning Ordinance) in that the project will adhere to the building height
requirements of the Beach Area Overlay Zone. The maximum height may not
exceed 30 feet and two stories if a minimum 3/12 roof pitch is provided or 24 feet
and two stories if less than a 3/12 roof pitch. The maximum height of the accessory
10 structures are 11' (fireplace/chimney).
