NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad, as follows: PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 6947 PC RESO NO. 6947 -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 A) That the above recitations are true and correct. B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES POINSETTIA VILLAGE PAD 4 – CDP 04-39(A), based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: 1. That the proposed development is in conformance with the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies in that the commercial project is consistent with the Local Shopping Center designation of the Mello I Land Use Plan. The proposed change of use from retail to food service and the addition of an outdoor dining patio will not obstruct views of the coastline as seen from public lands or the public right- of-way, nor otherwise damage the beauty of the coastal zone. No prime agricultural lands exist on or near the site; no steep slopes or environmentally sensitive habitats exist on or near the developed site; no coastal access is or will be needed through or adjacent to the project site; the project site is not located in an area of known geologic instability or flood hazards; any erosion will be controlled by grading in conformance with applicable City standards; and no significant visual panoramas exist on the site. 2. The proposal is in conformity with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the site is not located along the shoreline and thus cannot provide any public access to the shoreline nor provide any coastal recreational opportunities. 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, Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan (SUSMP) and Jurisdictional Urban Runoff Management Program (JURMP) to avoid increased urban runoff, 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. 4. 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). 5. 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). 6. The Planning Commission has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project.
